the nature and causes of hippocampal long-term potentiation.one of the most fascinating features of the hippocampus is its capacity for plasticity. long-term potentiation (ltp), a stable facilitation of synaptic potentials after high-frequency synaptic activity, is very prominent in hippocampus and is a leading candidate memory storage mechanism. here, we discuss the nature and causes of ltp and relate them to endogenous rhythmic neuronal activity patterns and their potential roles in memory. anatomical studies indicate that ltp is accompanied by postsyn ...20072168058
elimination of ciprofloxacin and three major metabolites and consequences of reduced renal function.the pharmacokinetics and elimination of ciprofloxacin and its three major metabolites desethylene ciprofloxacin (m1), sulfonylciprofloxacin (m2), and oxociprofloxacin (m3) were determined in 18 volunteers with normal and varying degrees of reduced renal functions. one dose of 500 mg ciprofloxacin was given orally. samples were assayed by high-pressure liquid chromatography. serum concentrations of both ciprofloxacin and its metabolites were only slightly influenced by the renal function. the ser ...20082612228
[the risk of suicide in cancer patients derived from a cancer registry].the incidence of suicide among cancer patients has been examined in several previous epidemiological studies, which have suggested an increased risk especially in the period following diagnosis. the role of factors which may modulate the risk, such as individual patient characteristics or that of cancer (site, prognosis or type of treatment), have not been systematically studied and available results are often contradictory. in geneva, the existence of a tumor registry, which follows patients co ...20082374843
weight gain associated with psychotropic drugs.the weight increase that is an often reported side effect of psychotropic drug use has implications for health risks as well as medication noncompliance. in this article i review the literature on the association between the use of several classes of psychotropic drugs and weight gain, discuss the possible mechanisms for this effect, and offer some practical approaches for reducing the risk of drug-induced weight gain, including the identification of a group of patients "at risk."20082566204
[the role of the trs-glucotest apparatus in self-monitoring by patients with diabetes mellitus].successful treatment of diabetes mellitus requires a reliable control of glycaemia where self-monitoring with reflectometer plays a significant role. trs-glucotest reflectometer (trs, zagreb), the result of our experts' efforts, makes it possible for diabetic patients to perform self-monitoring. according to our research trs-glucotest reflectometer shows lower blood glucose levels for more than 20%, especially in 3.8-11.5 mmol/l range of glucose concentration, that is in the range most often exp ...20092633013

[isotope angiocardiographic study of 30 cases of ventricular tachycardia with fourier phase analysis].twenty-seven patients (15 men, 12 women; mean age 48.9 years) suffering from ventricular tachycardia (vt) (n = 30) were studied by radionuclide angiocardiography with fourier phase analysis, both in sinus rhythm and during tachycardia. vt was spontaneous, electrically inducible, sustained, haemodynamically stable and monomorphous, with a mean rate of 174 beats/min (range: 115-260 beats). heart diseases responsible for vt were: non-obstructive cardiomyopathy (n = 7), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy ( ...20113136707
estimation of missing cone data in three-dimensional electron microscopy.the range of tilt angles for which projected images of two-dimensionally periodic specimens can be obtained in electron microscopy is limited both by technical aspects, such as goniometer design, and by the more fundamental limitation of object thickness. the lack of a full set of projections causes a missing cone in the reciprocal space data for the object, which will give an anisotropic resolution in a three-dimensional reconstruction and may cause the quality to be impaired by spurious featur ...20113244969
effects of azelastine on allergen- and exercise-induced asthma.the effects of the new anti-allergic drug, azelastine, on allergen- and exercise-induced asthma were studied. in six allergen inhalation tests for five asymptomatic asthmatic patients, the maximum percentage fall in fev1.0 immediately after inhalation of allergen extract was 37.2 +/- 6.4 per cent (mean +/- sem). as compared with a placebo, the maximum percentage fall in fev1.0 with azelastine after inhalation of allergen extract in the same manner as with the placebo was 17.3 +/- 6.9 per cent. t ...20113907651
