Ketorolac during the induction phase of cyclosporin-A therapy.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to determine if the concomitant use of ketorolac 0.4% and cyclosporin-A improves patient comfort during the induction phase in treating chronic dry eye disease. METHODS: Patients (n = 52) with clinically diagnosed dry eye were randomized to receive either cyclosporin-A monotherapy twice-daily (BID) or a BID adjunctive regimen of ketorolac, followed by the instillation of cyclosporin-A 10 min later. Study visits were at baseline, week 2, and week 6. At each study visit, patients underwent an evaluation for corneal staining, Schirmer's scores, and tear break-up time tests. Patients were asked to rate ocular comfort on a 4-point scale and to complete the ocular surface disease index (OSDI). Changes from baseline readings were recorded at week-2 and week-6 visits, and final patient success on treatment regimen was evaluated at week 6. RESULTS: After 6 weeks, the mean ocular comfort score of adjunctive patients improved 2.55 +/- 0.95 points, versus 1.53 +/- 0.91 points for monotherapy (P = 0.309). The adjunctive regimen provided significantly greater corneal staining reductions versus monotherapy, mean reduction in staining of 1.74 +/- 0.9, versus 1.27 +/- 0.56 (P = 0.044). CONCLUSIONS: Concurrent ketorolac 0.4% use with cyclosporin-A significantly reduced corneal staining and increased comfort in the induction phase.     

Reactive oxygen species and human spermatozoa: physiology and pathology

The role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the pathophysiology of human sperm function has been emphasized in recent years. ROS production in semen has been associated with loss of sperm motility, decreased capacity for sperm–oocyte fusion and loss of fertility. There is a current presumption that the most prolific source of ROS in sperm suspensions is an NADPH oxidase located in leukocytes or in spermatozoa which produces superoxide which is further converted to peroxide by the action of superoxide dismutase. Hydrogen peroxide has been recognized as the most toxic oxidizing species for human spermatozoa, which are very sensitive to lipid peroxidation owing to the high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in their plasma membrane, though this is not the sole mechanism by which sperm function might be impaired by ROS. Although the excessive production of ROS is detrimental to human spermatozoa, there is a growing body of evidence which suggests that ROS are also involved in the physiological control of some sperm functions. This review focuses on the nature and source of the ROS generated by human spermataozoa as well as their operational mechanisms and their effects, which may be detrimental or beneficial.     

Acute hemodynamic effects of piroximone (MDL 19,205) in patients with moderate congestive heart failure: comparison with sodium nitroprusside

Piroximone (MDL 19,205), a new imidazolone derivative, was given intravenously to 14 patients with congestive heart failure (NYHA class II-III), while under constant daily doses of digitalis and diuretics. In the first 3 patients, we determined the dose safely eliciting a favorable hemodynamic response. The subsequent 11 patients received 1 mg/kg of piroximone intravenously, and the hemodynamic effects were compared with those of sodium nitroprusside (SN) at a dose-lowering mean blood pressure by 10-20 mm Hg. Piroximone increased heart rate (13.2 +/- 2.0 beats/min, mean +/- SEM) and lowered mean arterial pressure (9 +/- 2.3 mm Hg). Both agents reduced similarly wedge pressure (6.5 +/- 2.9 and 9 +/- 2.9 mm Hg, respectively, for SN and piroximone) and total peripheral resistance. Cardiac index was increased less by SN (15%) than piroximone (48%) (p less than 0.001), and stroke work index significantly enhanced only by piroximone (p less than 0.001). The changes in loading conditions induced by the two agents being similar, it is likely that piroximone not only acts by peripheral vasodilation, but also possesses positive inotropic properties. Myocardial oxygen demand, assessed indirectly by tension-time index, was not affected by piroximone. Thus, piroximone appears to combine well-balanced vasodilator and inotropic properties which make this new agent potentially very useful for the management of congestive heart failure.     

大肠癌术后早期肠梗阻的临床特点和治疗

目的：探讨大肠癌术后早期肠梗阻的诊断与治疗。方法：回顾分析在肠癌手术412例术后早期肠梗阻29例的临床资料。结果：20例经手术探查发现以机械性梗阻占多数（18/20)，手术治愈18例；死亡2例，死亡原因均为延误手术时机造成；非手术治愈9例。结论：大肠癌术后早期肠梗阻虽有梗阻症状，但由于术后诸多因素的影响，大多缺乏典型机械性肠梗阻的临床表现。处理中先进行适当时间的非手术治疗，无缓解者再手术。     

The main features of central 5-HT1 receptors

The 5-HT1 receptor family comprises five different pharmacologic subtypes, designated 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, 5-HT1D, and 5-HT1E, whose common property is to bind 5-HT with nanomolar affinity. Recent investigations with molecular biology approaches led to the cloning and sequencing of 5-HT1A receptors in the rat and in the human, and of the 5-HT1C receptor in the rat. Although the 5-HT1A and 5-HT1C protein binding subunits exhibit the same structure with seven hydrophobic transmembrane domains, an extracellular N terminal and an intracellular C tail, their respective amino-acid sequences are markedly different. Indeed, a higher degree of sequence homology is found between the 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptors than between the former and 5-HT1A receptors, suggesting that the 5-HT1C subtype in fact belongs to the 5-HT2 class of central 5-HT receptors. All other 5-HT1 receptor subtypes are negatively coupled to adenylyl cyclase, whereas the 5-HT1C subtype, like 5-HT2 receptors, is positively coupled to phospholipase C. The respective regional distributions and regulatory properties, as well as pending questions regarding the ultrastructural localization, synthesis, mutual interactions, and axonal flow of 5-HT1 receptor subtypes, are also discussed.
