Oral mifepristone 600 mg and vaginal gemeprost for mid-trimester induction of abortion: An open multicenter study

This open multicenter study was performed in 20 hospital gynecological units in the UK. The effects of 600 mg oral mifepristone as pretreatment to vaginal prostaglandin induction of second second trimester abortion was studied in 267 women.

The primary efficacy variable was the abortion induction interval, defined as the time taken to expel the fetus from the time of administration of the first prostaglandin pessary. Induction was commenced 36 to 48 hours following mifepristone intake.

The mean abortion induction interval was 7 h. A total of 81.9% of women aborted within 12 h. There was a significant relationship between abortion induction interval and age of gestation, and a significant inverse relationship between abortion induction interval and parity.

Vomiting, pelvic pain, and nausea were the most frequently reported adverse events. Two patients required transfusion and one patient with a uterine scar from a previous cesarean section suffered a ruptured uterus and hysterotomy.     

Mechanisms of tolerance during treatment with nitroglycerin patches for 24 h

Objective: We examined the relationship between tolerance development, counterregulatory responses and arterial vasodilating effects evaluated by digital pulse plethysmography. Methods: Twenty patients with stable angina pectoris were exercise tested before, after 2 and after 24 h of open nitrate patch treatment. Results: The effects observed after 2 h of treatment on exercise duration, ST-segment depression, blood pressure and heart rate were lost in most individuals after 24 h. In contrast, the effects on the arterial pulse curves persisted after 24 h, with a mean change from baseline of 29%, compared to 33% at 2 h. After 24 h, a significant decrease in haematocrit and an increase in body weight were observed. The haematocrit changes correlated with the loss of clinical efficacy (r =0.57 for ST-segment depression, and r =0.54 for exercise duration). Conclusion: Clinical nitrate tolerance may be observed despite maintenance of the arterial vasodilating effects, and tolerance is more related to plasma volume expansion as a counterregulatory mechanism.

THE EFFECT OF SOME α2-ADRENOCEPTOR AGONISTS AND ANTAGONISTS ON GASTROINTESTINAL TRANSIT IN MICE: INFLUENCE OF MORPHINE, CASTOR OIL AND GLUCOSE

1. The effects of graded doses of the α₂-adrenoceptor agonists clonidine, tizanidine and BHT-920, and the α₂-adrenoceptor antagonists yohimbine and idazoxan, on gastrointestinal transit were investigated in mice using the charcoal meal test. 2. The agonists produced significant and dose-dependent decreases in gastrointestinal transit, and the antagonists produced the opposite effect. In affecting the gastrointestinal transit, clonidine (1 mg/kg) was as effective as tizanidine (12 mg/kg) and BHT-920 (40 mg/kg), while yohimbine (2 mg/kg) was as effective as idazoxan (1 mg/kg). 3. Morphine (2, 4 and 8 mg/kg) significantly inhibited gastrointestinal transit. This effect was significantly reversed by the co-administration of yohimbine (2 mg/kg) and idazoxan (1 mg/kg). 4. The acute administration of glucose (5.04 g/kg, i.p.) potentiated the inhibition of gastrointestinal transit produced by clonidine (1 mg/kg) and BHT-920 (40 mg/kg). Glucose treatment, however, had no significant effect on the increase in gastrointestinal transit induced by yohimbine (2 mg/kg) or idazoxan (1 mg/kg). 5. Castor oil (0.25 mL/mouse, orally) induced diarrhoea in saline-treated animals within about 45 min. Clonidine (1 mg/kg), tizanidine (12 mg/kg) and BHT-920 (40 mg/kg) delayed the occurrence of diarrhoea to 2.1, 1.2 and 1.4 h, respectively.     

吡喹酮治疗慢性日本血吸虫病198例副作用观察

观察近10年来以吡喹酮治疗慢性日本血吸虫病198例的副作用,发现副作用出现率为77.28%(153/198).其主要表现为头昏38.9%(77/198)、失眠28.8%(57/198)、多梦16.2%(32/198)、乏力13.2%(26/198)、眩晕13.2%(26/198),还有肝区痛、腹痛等。部分患者肝功能及心脏功能受到一定的影响,提示治疗过程中,对心动过缓者宜严密观察。此外,还对患者住院时间及夹杂症患者的治疗进行了讨论。     

肝硬化患者胰岛素释放试验的临床意义

本文报道46例肝硬化患者口服葡萄糖胰岛素释放试验的结果,并与18名正常人和18名原发性糖尿病患者比较。肝硬化患者糖耐量减低者28例(60.9％),其中29例(43.5％)呈糖尿病型耐量曲线。胰岛素释放高峰值在服糖后2h;释放过多和分泌延迟者32例(69.6％),降低者4例(8.7％)。20例肝源性糖尿病患者的胰岛素释放指数明显高于原发性糖尿患者。笔者认为血浆胰岛素和胰岛素释放指数测定对鉴别这两种类型的糖尿病有很大价值。     

Tolerance and dependence to opiates

In the 19th century, investigators recognized that addiction to opiates involves tolerance and dependence. In the United States, the National Academy of Sciences and the Public Health Service initiated systematic investigations into opiate addiction in 1929. Tolerance and dependence to morphine, the prototype for opiate drugs, were the emphasis of human studies for the next fifty years. This presentation highlights salient features of tolerance and dependence learned in these studies and relates these findings to clinical use in treating pain.     

2-chloroprocaine antagonism of epidural morphine analgesia

Background: 2-chloroprocaine (2-CP) used for lumbar epidural anesthesia (LEA) reportedly decreases the efficacy of epidural morphine (EM) administered for post-cesarean section (CS) analgesia. The amount of supplemental i.v. morphine self-administered by the patient via the patient-controlled analgesia device (PCA) is used to study the interaction between EM and 2-CP.
Methods: Forty-two patients scheduled for elective CS were randomly divided into 3 equal groups, and received 2-CP, 2-CP+epinephrine (Epi, 5 μg ml^-1) or 2% lidocaine (Lido) with Epi for LEA. All patients received 5 mg EM and i.v. PCA morphine for postoperative pain. Cumulative amount of i.v. morphine used in the first 24 hours as well as the amount of the drug used during each 2-h period were noted. Nonparametric analysis of variance and Chi-squared analysis were used for statistical comparisons.
Results: The mean cumulative 24-h i.v. PCA morphine requirement in the 2-CP, 2-CP+Epi and Lido+Epi groups respectively was 20.5±24, 33.1.5±27 and 4.07±6.3 (mean±SD). The Lido+Epi group used significantly less morphine ( P = 0.01) compared to either of the 2-CP groups with no significant difference between the 2-CP groups. The maximum i.v. PCA morphine use occurred in the first 4 hours following surgery in all three groups.
Conclusion: Analgesic efficacy of EM is decreased when 2-CP is used for LEA compared to when Lido+Epi is used.
