The hypotensive effect of 100 mg/kg alpha-methyldopa was also partially reversed by naloxone. Naloxone alone did not affect either blood pressure or heart rate. In brain membranes from spontaneously hypertensive rats clonidine, 10(-8) to 10(-5) M, did not influence stereoselective binding of [3H]-naloxone (8 nM), and naloxone, 10(-8) to 10(-4) M, did not influence clonidine-suppressible binding of [3H]-dihydroergocryptine (1 nM). These findings indicate that in spontaneously hypertensive rats the effects of central alpha-adrenoceptor stimulation involve activation of opiate receptors. As naloxone and clonidine do not appear to interact with the same receptor site, the observed functional antagonism suggests the release of an endogenous opiate by clonidine or alpha-methyldopa and the possible role of the opiate in the central control of sympathetic tone.","[{'text': 'Naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 93, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 181, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'nalozone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 252, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 274, 'end': 285, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 306, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 354, 'end': 362, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'Naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 364, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 469, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': '[3H]-naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 563, 'end': 576, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 589, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 637, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': '[3H]-dihydroergocryptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 671, 'end': 695, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 750, 'end': 762, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D008750'}]" +1,354896,Lidocaine-induced cardiac asystole.,"Intravenous administration of a single 50-mg bolus of lidocaine in a 67-year-old man resulted in profound depression of the activity of the sinoatrial and atrioventricular nodal pacemakers.

Newborn female Wistar rats were fed a lithium-containing diet (50 mmol/kg) for 8 weeks and then randomized to normal diet, HP diet (40 vs. 19%), NX or HP+NX for another 8 weeks. Corresponding non-lithium pretreated groups were generated. When comparing all lithium treated versus non-lithium-treated groups, lithium caused a reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) without significant changes in effective renal plasma flow (as determined by a marker secreted into the proximal tubules) or lithium clearance. Consequently, lithium pretreatment caused a fall in filtration fraction and an increase in fractional Li excretion. Lithium also caused proteinuria and systolic hypertension in absence of glomerulosclerosis. HP failed to accentuante progression of renal failure and in fact tended to increase GFR and decrease plasma creatinine levels in lithium pretreated rats. NX caused an additive deterioration in GFR which, however, was ameliorated by HP. NX+HP caused a further rise in blood pressure in Li-pretreated rats. The results indicate that Li-induced nephropathy, even when the GFR is only modestly reduced, is associated with proteinuria and arterial systolic hypertension. In this model of chronic renal failure the decline in GFR is not accompanied by a corresponding fall in effective renal plasma flow, which may be the functional expression of the formation of nonfiltrating atubular glomeruli. The fractional reabsorption of tubular fluid by the proximal tubules is reduced, leaving the distal delivery unchanged.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'chronic renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 127, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 309, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 369, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 520, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 581, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 608, 'end': 615, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 853, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Li', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 941, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 955, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 975, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1000, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1045, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Li', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1333, 'end': 1335, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Li', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1381, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1466, 'end': 1477, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1500, 'end': 1512, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'chronic renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D007676'}]" +5,1420741,Treatment of Crohn's disease with fusidic acid: an antibiotic with immunosuppressive properties similar to cyclosporin.,"Fusidic acid is an antibiotic with T-cell specific immunosuppressive effects similar to those of cyclosporin. Because of the need for the development of new treatments for Crohn's disease, a pilot study was undertaken to estimate the pharmacodynamics and tolerability of fusidic acid treatment in chronic active, therapy-resistant patients. Eight Crohn's disease patients were included. Fusidic acid was administered orally in a dose of 500 mg t.d.s. and the treatment was planned to last 8 weeks. The disease activity was primarily measured by a modified individual grading score. Five of 8 patients (63%) improved during fusidic acid treatment: 3 at two weeks and 2 after four weeks. There were no serious clinical side effects, but dose reduction was required in two patients because of nausea. Biochemically, an increase in alkaline phosphatases was noted in 5 of 8 cases (63%), and the greatest increases were seen in those who had elevated levels prior to treatment. All reversed to pre-treatment levels after cessation of treatment. The results of this pilot study suggest that fusidic acid may be of benefit in selected chronic active Crohn's disease patients in whom conventional treatment is ineffective. Because there seems to exist a scientific rationale for the use of fusidic acid at the cytokine level in inflammatory bowel disease, we suggest that the role of this treatment should be further investigated.","[{'text': ""Crohn's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 13, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D003424'}, {'text': 'fusidic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D005672'}, {'text': 'cyclosporin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 107, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'cyclosporin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 217, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': ""Crohn's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 292, 'end': 307, 'mesh': 'D003424'}, {'text': 'fusidic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 391, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D005672'}, {'text': ""Crohn's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 467, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D003424'}, {'text': 'Fusidic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 507, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D005672'}, {'text': 'fusidic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D005672'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 910, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'fusidic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D005672'}, {'text': ""Crohn's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1278, 'mesh': 'D003424'}, {'text': 'fusidic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1402, 'end': 1414, 'mesh': 'D005672'}, {'text': 'inflammatory bowel disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1440, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'D015212'}]" +6,1601297,Electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury in psychiatrically hospitalized cocaine abusers.,"The electrocardiograms (ECG) of 99 cocaine-abusing patients were compared with the ECGs of 50 schizophrenic controls.

Injection of Captopril (1 mg/kg), an inhibitor of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), reduced both pulmonary and renal insufficiency in this rat model. The lung weights were lower and PaO2 was improved in rats given this enzyme-blocking agent. The contents of albumin in the lungs were not changed, indicating that Captopril did not influence the extravasation of protein. Renal damage as reflected by an increase in serum urea and in kidney weight was prevented by Captopril. The amount of fibrin in the kidneys was also considerably lower than in animals which received thrombin and AMCA alone. It is suggested that the effects of Captopril on the lungs may be attributable to a vasodilatory effect due to a reduction in the circulating level of Angiotension II and an increase in prostacyclin (secondary to an increase in bradykinin). Captopril may, by the same mechanism, reduce the increase in glomerular filtration that is known to occur after an injection of thrombin, thereby diminishing the aggregation of fibrin monomers in the glomeruli, with the result that less fibrin will be deposited and thus less kidney damage will be produced.","[{'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'Captopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D002216'}, {'text': 'intravascular coagulation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 113, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D004211'}, {'text': 'intravascular coagulation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 164, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D004211'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 250, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'AMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 267, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'trauma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 364, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D014947'}, {'text': 'sepsis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 374, 'end': 380, 'mesh': 'D018805'}, {'text': 'Captopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 402, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D002216'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'Captopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 705, 'end': 714, 'mesh': 'D002216'}, {'text': 'Renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 763, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'Captopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D002216'}, {'text': 'AMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 975, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'Captopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1023, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D002216'}, {'text': 'Angiotension II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1153, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'prostacyclin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1185, 'mesh': 'D011464'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'Captopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D002216'}, {'text': 'kidney damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1517, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +15,2696505,A randomized comparison of labetalol and nitroprusside for induced hypotension.,"In a randomized study, labetalol-induced hypotension and nitroprusside-induced hypotension were compared in 20 patients (10 in each group) scheduled for major orthopedic procedures.

The CBZ levels measured in plasma and brain of these animals, however, were below those normally considered protective.

Based on this principle a 27-year old woman, classified as being in the high-risk group (Goldstein and Berkowitz score: 11), was treated with multiple cytotoxic drugs. The multiple drug schema consisted of: Etoposide 16.213, Methotrexate, Cyclophosphamide, Actomycin-D, and Cisplatin. On the first day of the schedule, moderate high doses of Methotrexate, Etoposide and Cyclophosphamide were administered. Within 8 hours after initiation of therapy the patient died with a clinical picture resembling massive pulmonary obstruction due to choriocarcinomic tissue plugs, probably originating from the uterus. Formation of these plugs was probably due to extensive tumor necrosis at the level of the walls of the major uterine veins, which resulted in an open exchange of tumor plugs to the vascular spaces; decrease in tumor tissue coherence secondary to chemotherapy may have further contributed to the formation of tumor emboli. In view of the close time association between the start of chemotherapy and the acute onset of massive embolism other explanations, such as spontaneous necrosis, must be considered less likely. Patients with large pelvic tumor loads are, according to existing classifications, at high risk to die and to develop drug resistance. Notwithstanding these facts our findings suggest that these patients might benefit from relatively mild initial treatment, especially true for patients not previously exposed to this drug. Close observation of the response status both clinically and with beta-hCG values may indicate whether and when more agressive combination chemotherapy should be started.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'Death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 5, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'gestational trophoblastic disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D031901'}, {'text': 'choriocarcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 175, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D002822'}, {'text': 'Etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 399, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'Methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 417, 'end': 429, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'Cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 431, 'end': 447, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'Actomycin-D', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 449, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'D003609'}, {'text': 'Cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 466, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'Methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 534, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'Etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'Cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 562, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'pulmonary obstruction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 701, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D011655'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 854, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 860, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 961, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1112, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'embolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1232, 'mesh': 'D004617'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1281, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'pelvic tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1347, 'mesh': 'D010386'}]" +19,3409645,Sexual dysfunction among patients with arthritis.,"The relationship of arthritis and sexual dysfunction was investigated among 169 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and spondyloarthropathy, 130 of whom were pair-matched to controls. Assessments of marital happiness and depressed mood were also made using the CES-D and the Azrin Marital Happiness Scale (AMHS). Sexual dysfunctions were found to be common among patients and controls, the majority in both groups reporting one or more dysfunctions. Impotence was more common among male patients than controls and was found to be associated with co-morbidity and the taking of methotrexate. Depressed mood was more common among patients and was associated with certain sexual difficulties, but not with impotence. Marital unhappiness, as indicated by AMHS scores, was not associated with arthritis but was associated with sexual dysfunction, sexual dissatisfaction and being female.","[{'text': 'Sexual dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D012735'}, {'text': 'arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D001168'}, {'text': 'arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D001168'}, {'text': 'sexual dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 84, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D012735'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 144, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D001172'}, {'text': 'osteoarthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 166, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D010003'}, {'text': 'spondyloarthropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'D025242'}, {'text': 'depressed mood', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 286, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'Sexual dysfunctions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 378, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D012735'}, {'text': 'Impotence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 515, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D007172'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 642, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'Depressed mood', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 656, 'end': 670, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'impotence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 768, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D007172'}, {'text': 'arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 853, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D001168'}, {'text': 'sexual dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 887, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D012735'}]" +20,3412544,Does paracetamol cause urothelial cancer or renal papillary necrosis?,"The risk of developing renal papillary necrosis or cancer of the renal pelvis, ureter or bladder associated with consumption of either phenacetin or paracetamol was calculated from data acquired by questionnaire from 381 cases and 808 controls.

Her red blood cells (RBCs) had increased incubated Heinz body formation, decreased reduced glutathione (GSH), and decreased GSH stability. The pentose phosphate shunt activity of the dapsone-exposed AE RBCs was increased compared to normal RBCs. Although the AE RBCs from an individual not taking dapsone had increased incubated Heinz body formation, the GSH content and GSH stability were normal. The pentose phosphate shunt activity of the non-dapsone-exposed AE RBCs was decreased compared to normal RBCs. Thus, AE RBCs appear to have an increased sensitivity to oxidant stress both in vitro and in vivo, since dapsone does not cause hemolytic anemia at this dose in hematologically normal individuals. Given the influx of Southeast Asians into the United States, oxidant medications should be used with caution, especially if an infection is present, in individuals of ethnic backgrounds that have an increased prevalence of hemoglobin E.","[{'text': 'Dapsone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D003622'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 30, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'leprosy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 144, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D007918'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 175, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'dapsone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 215, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D003622'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 272, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 374, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'GSH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'GSH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 407, 'end': 410, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'pentose phosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 426, 'end': 443, 'mesh': 'D010428'}, {'text': 'dapsone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 466, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D003622'}, {'text': 'dapsone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D003622'}, {'text': 'GSH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 638, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'GSH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 654, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'pentose phosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 685, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D010428'}, {'text': 'dapsone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 729, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D003622'}, {'text': 'dapsone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D003622'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1116, 'end': 1125, 'mesh': 'D007239'}]" +22,3437726,"Severe complications of antianginal drug therapy in a patient identified as a poor metabolizer of metoprolol, propafenone, diltiazem, and sparteine.","A 47-year-old patient suffering from coronary artery disease was admitted to the CCU in shock with III. AV block, severe hypotension, and impairment of ventricular function. One week prior to admission a therapy with standard doses of metoprolol (100 mg t.i.d. and then 100 mg b.i.d.) had been initiated. Two days before admission diltiazem (60 mg b.i.d.) was prescribed in addition. Analyses of a blood sample revealed unusually high plasma concentrations of metoprolol (greater than 3000 ng/ml) and diltiazem (526 ng/ml). The patient recovered within 1 week following discontinuation of antianginal therapy. Three months later the patient was exposed to a single dose of metoprolol, diltiazem, propafenone (since he had received this drug in the past), and sparteine (as a probe for the debrisoquine/sparteine type polymorphism of oxidative drug metabolism). It was found that he was a poor metabolizer of all four drugs, indicating that their metabolism is under the same genetic control. Therefore, patients belonging to the poor-metabolizer phenotype of sparteine/debrisoquine polymorphism in drug metabolism, which constitutes 6.4% of the German population, may experience adverse drug reactions when treated with standard doses of one of these drugs alone.

Saline-pretreated controls given a test dose of morphine (20 mg/kg i.p.) showed a pronounced rigidity recorded as tonic activity in the electromyogram. Rats treated for 11 days with morphine and withdrawn for 36-40 h showed differences in the development of tolerance: about half of the animals showed a rigidity after the test dose of morphine that was not significantly less than in the controls and were akinetic (A group). The other rats showed a strong decrease in the rigidity and the occurrence of stereotyped (S) licking and/or gnawing in presence of akinetic or hyperkinetic (K) behaviour (AS/KS group), suggesting signs of dopaminergic activation. The rigidity was considerably decreased in both groups after 20 days' treatment. In a further series of experiments, haloperidol (0.2 mg/kg i.p.) was used in order to block the dopaminergic activation and to estimate the real degree of the tolerance to the rigidity without any dopaminergic interference. Haloperidol enhanced the rigidity in the A group. However, the level in the AS/KS group remained considerably lower than in the A group. The results suggest that rigidity, which is assumed to be due to an action of morphine in the striatum, can be antagonized by another process leading to dopaminergic activation in the striatum. Nevertheless, there occurs some real tolerance to this effect. The rapid alternations of rigidity and the signs of dopaminergic activation observed in the animals of the AS/KS group might be due to rapid shifts in the predominance of various DA-innervated structures.","[{'text': 'muscular rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'muscular rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 249, 'end': 257, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 294, 'end': 302, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 383, 'end': 391, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'akinetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 608, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'D018476'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 675, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'akinetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 768, 'mesh': 'D018476'}, {'text': 'hyperkinetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 772, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 863, 'end': 871, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 976, 'end': 987, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1116, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'Haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1175, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1197, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1326, 'end': 1334, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1387, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1584, 'end': 1592, 'mesh': 'D009127'}]" +25,3800626,Compression neuropathy of the radial nerve due to pentazocine-induced fibrous myopathy.,"Fibrous myopathy is a common, well-known side effect of repeated pentazocine injection.

Over a range of 1-150 days of DES treatment, pairs of control and DES-treated rats were sacrificed, and their pituitaries dissociated enzymatically into single-cell preparations. The cell populations were examined regarding total cell recovery correlated with gland weight, intracellular prolactin (PRL) content and subsequent release in primary culture, immunocytochemical PRL staining, density and/or size alterations via separation on Ficoll-Hypaque and by unit gravity sedimentation, and cell cycle analysis, after acriflavine DNA staining, by laser flow cytometry. Total cell yields from DES-treated pituitaries increased from 1.3 times control yields at 8 days of treatment to 58.9 times control values by day 150. Intracellular PRL content ranged from 1.9 to 9.4 times control levels, and PRL release in vitro was significantly and consistently higher than controls, after at least 8 days of DES exposure. Beyond 8 days of DES exposure, the immunochemically PRL-positive proportion of cells increased to over 50% of the total population. Increased density and/or size and PRL content were indicated for the majority of the PRL cell population in both types of separation protocols. All these effects of DES were more pronounced among previously ovariectomized animals.

The adenylate energy charge was found to be significantly decreased, while the phophorylcreatine mole fraction was unchanged. Such disparity suggests an inhibition of creatine phosphokinase. The addition of 1 mM adenosine to the myocardial cell cultures markedly increases the ATP concentration through a pathway reportedly leading to a compartmentalized ATP pool. In the adriamycin-treated cells, the addition of adenosine increased the adenylate charge and, concomitant with this inrcease, the cells' functional integrity, in terms of percentage of beating cells and rate of contractions, was maintained.","[{'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 25, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 36, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 173, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'phosphorylcreatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 393, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D010725'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 449, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'phophorylcreatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D010725'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 642, 'end': 650, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 687, 'end': 696, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 752, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 847, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 889, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D000241'}]" +40,7444978,Age-dependent sensitivity of the rat to neurotoxic effects of streptomycin.,"Streptomycin sulfate (300 mg/kg s.c.) was injected for various periods into preweanling rats and for 3 weeks into weanling rats.

Two groups of supine subjects were studied under placebo-controlled conditions, one during the night, when sleeping (n = 7) and the other at daytime, when awake (n = 6). Each subject received a single 50 mg dose of clomipramine given orally 2 hours before blood collection. Plasma PRL concentrations were analysed at 10 min intervals and underlying secretory rates calculated by a deconvolution procedure. For both experiments the drug intake led to significant increases in PRL secretion, acting preferentially on tonic secretion as pulse amplitude and frequency did not differ significantly from corresponding control values. During the night clomipramine ingestion altered the complete sleep architecture in that it suppressed REM sleep and the sleep cycles and induced increased wakefulness. As the relative increase in PRL secretion expressed as a percentage of the mean did not significantly differ between the night and day time studies (46 +/- 19% vs 34 +/- 10%), it can be concluded that the observed sleep disturbance did not interfere with the drug action per se. The presence of REM sleep was shown not to be a determining factor either for secretory pulse amplitude and frequency, as, for both, mean nocturnal values were similar with and without prior clomipramine ingestion.","[{'text': 'Clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D002997'}, {'text': 'sleep disturbance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 21, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'sleep disturbance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 143, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D002997'}, {'text': 'clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 497, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'D002997'}, {'text': 'clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 927, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D002997'}, {'text': 'sleep disturbance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1292, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1560, 'mesh': 'D002997'}]" +44,7988234,Angioedema following the intravenous administration of metoprolol.,"A 72-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital with ""flash"" pulmonary edema, preceded by chest pain, requiring intubation.

The major teratogenic outcome is arthrogryposis, presumably due to nicotinic receptor blockade. However, coniine has failed to produce arthrogryposis in rats or mice and is only weakly teratogenic in rabbits. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the effects of coniine and nicotine in the developing chick. Concentrations of coniine and nicotine sulfate were 0.015%, 0.03%, 0.075%, 0.15%, 0.75%, 1.5%, 3%, and 6% and 1%, 5%, and 10%, respectively. Both compounds caused deformations and lethality in a dose-dependent manner. All concentrations of nicotine sulfate caused some lethality but a no effect level for coniine lethality was 0.75%. The deformations caused by both coniine and nicotine sulfate were excessive flexion or extension of one or more toes. No histopathological alterations or differences in bone formation were seen in the limbs or toes of any chicks from any group; however, extensive cranial hemorrhage occurred in all nicotine sulfate-treated chicks. There was a statistically significant (P < or = 0.01) decrease in movement in coniine and nicotine sulfate treated chicks as determined by ultrasound. Control chicks were in motion an average of 33.67% of the time, while coniine-treated chicks were only moving 8.95% of a 5-min interval, and no movement was observed for nicotine sulfate treated chicks. In summary, the chick embryo provides a reliable and simple experimental animal model of coniine-induced arthrogryposis. Data from this model support a mechanism involving nicotinic receptor blockade with subsequent decreased fetal movement.","[{'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'Coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'arthrogryposis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 191, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D001176'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 263, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'arthrogryposis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 293, 'end': 307, 'mesh': 'D001176'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 436, 'end': 443, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 500, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'deformations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 645, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D009140'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 722, 'end': 730, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 787, 'end': 794, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'deformations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 820, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D009140'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 848, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 860, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'excessive flexion or extension of one or more toes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 882, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D009140'}, {'text': 'cranial hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1115, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1238, 'end': 1246, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1369, 'end': 1376, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1477, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'coniine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1591, 'end': 1598, 'mesh': 'C007112'}, {'text': 'arthrogryposis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1621, 'mesh': 'D001176'}]" +46,8302922,Epidural blood flow during prostaglandin E1 or trimethaphan induced hypotension.,"To evaluate the effect of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) or trimethaphan (TMP) induced hypotension on epidural blood flow (EBF) during spinal surgery, EBF was measured using the heat clearance method in 30 patients who underwent postero-lateral interbody fusion under isoflurane anaesthesia. An initial dose of 0.1 microgram.kg-1.min-1 of PGE1 (15 patients), or 10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 of TMP (15 patients) was administered intravenously after the dural opening and the dose was adjusted to maintain the mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) at about 60 mmHg. The hypotensive drug was discontinued at the completion of the operative procedure. After starting PGE1 or TMP, MAP and rate pressure product (RPP) decreased significantly compared with preinfusion values (P < 0.01), and the degree of hypotension due to PGE1 remained constant until 60 min after its discontinuation. Heart rate (HR) did not change in either group. EBFF did not change during PGE1 infusion whereas in the TMP group, EBF decreased significantly at 30 and 60 min after the start of TMP (preinfusion: 45.9 +/- 13.9 ml/100g/min. 30 min: 32.3 +/- 9.9 ml/100 g/min (P < 0.05). 60 min: 30 +/- 7.5 ml/100 g/min (P < 0.05)).

Collaborative Working Group on Clinical Trial Evaluations.,"Adverse effects of antipsychotics often lead to noncompliance. Thus, clinicians should address patients' concerns about adverse effects and attempt to choose medications that will improve their patients' quality of life as well as overall health. The side effect profiles of the atypical antipsychotics are more advantageous than those of the conventional neuroleptics. Conventional agents are associated with unwanted central nervous system effects, including extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), tardive dyskinesia, sedation, and possible impairment of some cognitive measures, as well as cardiac effects, orthostatic hypotension, hepatic changes, anticholinergic side effects, sexual dysfunction, and weight gain. The newer atypical agents have a lower risk of EPS, but are associated in varying degrees with sedation, cardiovascular effects, anticholinergic effects, weight gain, sexual dysfunction, hepatic effects, lowered seizure threshold (primarily clozapine), and agranulocytosis (clozapine only). Since the incidence and severity of specific adverse effects differ among the various atypicals, the clinician should carefully consider which side effects are most likely to lead to the individual's dissatisfaction and noncompliance before choosing an antipsychotic for a particular patient.","[{'text': 'extrapyramidal symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 568, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'EPS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 593, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'tardive dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 599, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 709, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'sexual dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 781, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'D012735'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 805, 'end': 816, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'EPS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 865, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 983, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'sexual dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 985, 'end': 1003, 'mesh': 'D012735'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'agranulocytosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D000380'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1101, 'mesh': 'D003024'}]" +52,10193204,Effects of tetrandrine and fangchinoline on experimental thrombosis in mice and human platelet aggregation.,"Tetrandrine (TET) and fangchinoline (FAN) are two naturally occurring analogues with a bisbenzylisoquinoline structure.

Oncopaz Cooperative Group.,"BACKGROUND: Although the prevalence of nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is high among elderly patients, few data are available regarding the efficacy and toxicity of chemotherapy in this group of patients. Recent reports indicate that single agent therapy with vinorelbine (VNB) or gemcitabine (GEM) may obtain a response rate of 20-30% in elderly patients, with acceptable toxicity and improvement in symptoms and quality of life. In the current study the efficacy and toxicity of the combination of GEM and VNB in elderly patients with advanced NSCLC or those with some contraindication to receiving cisplatin were assessed. METHODS: Forty-nine patients with advanced NSCLC were included, 38 of whom were age >/= 70 years and 11 were age < 70 years but who had some contraindication to receiving cisplatin. All patients were evaluable for response and toxicity. Treatment was comprised of VNB, 25 mg/m(2), plus GEM, 1000 mg/m(2), both on Days 1, 8, and 15 every 28 days. Patients received a minimum of three courses unless progressive disease was detected. RESULTS: One hundred sixty-five courses were administered, with a median of 3. 6 courses per patient. The overall response rate was 26% (95% confidence interval, 15-41%). Two patients attained a complete response (4%) and 11 patients (22%) achieved a partial response. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status improved in 35% of those patients with an initial value > 0, whereas relief of at least 1 symptom without worsening of other symptoms was noted in 27 patients (55%). The median time to progression was 16 weeks and the 1-year survival rate was 33%. Toxicity was mild. Six patients (12%) had World Health Organization Grade 3-4 neutropenia, 2 patients (4%) had Grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia, and 2 patients (4%) had Grade 3 neurotoxicity. Three patients with severe neutropenia (6%) died of sepsis. The median age of those patients developing Grade 3-4 neutropenia was significantly higher than that of the remaining patients (75 years vs. 72 years; P = 0.047). CONCLUSIONS: The combination of GEM and VNB is moderately active and well tolerated except in patients age >/= 75 years. This age group had an increased risk of myelosuppression. Therefore the prophylactic use of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor should be considered with this treatment. New chemotherapy combinations with higher activity and lower toxicity are needed for elderly patients with advanced NSCLC.","[{'text': 'Gemcitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'C056507'}, {'text': 'vinorelbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'nonsmall cell lung carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D002289'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 123, 'end': 132, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'nonsmall cell lung carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 200, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D002289'}, {'text': 'NSCLC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 230, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D002289'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'vinorelbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 426, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'gemcitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'C056507'}, {'text': 'GEM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 460, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'C056507'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 539, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 635, 'end': 643, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'GEM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 666, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'C056507'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 674, 'end': 677, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'NSCLC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 712, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D002289'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 767, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'NSCLC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 835, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D002289'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1056, 'end': 1059, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'GEM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1081, 'mesh': 'C056507'}, {'text': 'Toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1795, 'end': 1803, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1873, 'end': 1884, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1916, 'end': 1932, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1966, 'end': 1979, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2008, 'end': 2019, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'sepsis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2033, 'end': 2039, 'mesh': 'D018805'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2095, 'end': 2106, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'GEM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2236, 'end': 2239, 'mesh': 'C056507'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2244, 'end': 2247, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'myelosuppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2365, 'end': 2381, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2558, 'end': 2566, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'NSCLC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2613, 'end': 2618, 'mesh': 'D002289'}]" +54,10669626,Warfarin-induced artery calcification is accelerated by growth and vitamin D.,"The present studies demonstrate that growth and vitamin D treatment enhance the extent of artery calcification in rats given sufficient doses of Warfarin to inhibit gamma-carboxylation of matrix Gla protein, a calcification inhibitor known to be expressed by smooth muscle cells and macrophages in the artery wall. The first series of experiments examined the influence of age and growth status on artery calcification in Warfarin-treated rats. Treatment for 2 weeks with Warfarin caused massive focal calcification of the artery media in 20-day-old rats and less extensive focal calcification in 42-day-old rats. In contrast, no artery calcification could be detected in 10-month-old adult rats even after 4 weeks of Warfarin treatment. To directly examine the importance of growth to Warfarin-induced artery calcification in animals of the same age, 20-day-old rats were fed for 2 weeks either an ad libitum diet or a 6-g/d restricted diet that maintains weight but prevents growth. Concurrent treatment of both dietary groups with Warfarin produced massive focal calcification of the artery media in the ad libitum-fed rats but no detectable artery calcification in the restricted-diet, growth-inhibited group. Although the explanation for the association between artery calcification and growth status cannot be determined from the present study, there was a relationship between higher serum phosphate and susceptibility to artery calcification, with 30% higher levels of serum phosphate in young, ad libitum-fed rats compared with either of the groups that was resistant to Warfarin-induced artery calcification, ie, the 10-month-old rats and the restricted-diet, growth-inhibited young rats. This observation suggests that increased susceptibility to Warfarin-induced artery calcification could be related to higher serum phosphate levels. The second set of experiments examined the possible synergy between vitamin D and Warfarin in artery calcification. High doses of vitamin D are known to cause calcification of the artery media in as little as 3 to 4 days. High doses of the vitamin K antagonist Warfarin are also known to cause calcification of the artery media, but at treatment times of 2 weeks or longer yet not at 1 week. In the current study, we investigated the synergy between these 2 treatments and found that concurrent Warfarin administration dramatically increased the extent of calcification in the media of vitamin D-treated rats at 3 and 4 days. There was a close parallel between the effect of vitamin D dose on artery calcification and the effect of vitamin D dose on the elevation of serum calcium, which suggests that vitamin D may induce artery calcification through its effect on serum calcium. Because Warfarin treatment had no effect on the elevation in serum calcium produced by vitamin D, the synergy between Warfarin and vitamin D is probably best explained by the hypothesis that Warfarin inhibits the activity of matrix Gla protein as a calcification inhibitor. High levels of matrix Gla protein are found at sites of artery calcification in rats treated with vitamin D plus Warfarin, and chemical analysis showed that the protein that accumulated was indeed not gamma-carboxylated. These observations indicate that although the gamma-carboxyglutamate residues of matrix Gla protein are apparently required for its function as a calcification inhibitor, they are not required for its accumulation at calcification sites.","[{'text': 'Warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'artery calcification', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 17, 'end': 37,

factors.,"BACKGROUND: Concerns about possible risks of switching to mania associated with antidepressants continue to interfere with the establishment of an optimal treatment paradigm for bipolar depression. METHOD: The response of 44 patients meeting DSM-IV criteria for bipolar disorder to naturalistic treatment was assessed for at least 6 weeks using the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale and the Bech-Rafaelson Mania Rating Scale. Patients who experienced a manic or hypomanic switch were compared with those who did not on several variables including age, sex, diagnosis (DSM-IV bipolar I vs. bipolar II), number of previous manic episodes, type of antidepressant therapy used (electroconvulsive therapy vs. antidepressant drugs and, more particularly, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [SSRIs]), use and type of mood stabilizers (lithium vs. anticonvulsants), and temperament of the patient, assessed during a normothymic period using the hyperthymia component of the Semi-structured Affective Temperament Interview. RESULTS: Switches to hypomania or mania occurred in 27% of all patients (N = 12) (and in 24% of the subgroup of patients treated with SSRIs [8/33]); 16% (N = 7) experienced manic episodes, and 11% (N = 5) experienced hypomanic episodes. Sex, age, diagnosis (bipolar I vs. bipolar II), and additional treatment did not affect the risk of switching. The incidence of mood switches seemed not to differ between patients receiving an anticonvulsant and those receiving no mood stabilizer. In contrast, mood switches were less frequent in patients receiving lithium (15%, 4/26) than in patients not treated with lithium (44%, 8/18; p = .04). The number of previous manic episodes did not affect the probability of switching, whereas a high score on the hyperthymia component of the Semistructured Affective Temperament Interview was associated with a greater risk of switching (p = .008). CONCLUSION: The frequency of mood switching associated with acute antidepressant therapy may be reduced by lithium treatment. Particular attention should be paid to patients with a hyperthymic temperament, who have a greater risk of mood switches.","[{'text': 'Antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 140, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'antidepressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 162, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'bipolar depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 260, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 344, 'end': 360, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'manic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 543, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'hypomanic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 552, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'DSM-IV bipolar I', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 658, 'end': 674, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 679, 'end': 689, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'manic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 711, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 749, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'serotonin reuptake inhibitors', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D017367'}, {'text': 'SSRIs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 880, 'end': 885, 'mesh': 'D017367'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'hypomania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1131, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1144, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'SSRIs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1244, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D017367'}, {'text': 'manic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1283, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'hypomanic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1327, 'end': 1336, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar I', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1382, 'end': 1392, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1663, 'end': 1670, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1717, 'end': 1724, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'manic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1770, 'end': 1775, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2060, 'end': 2074, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2101, 'end': 2108, 'mesh': 'D008094'}]" +56,11419773,Caffeine-induced cardiac arrhythmia: an unrecognised danger of healthfood products.,"We describe a 25-year-old woman with pre-existing mitral valve prolapse who developed intractable ventricular fibrillation after consuming a ""natural energy"" guarana health drink containing a high concentration of caffeine.

To determine mitochondrial events from HAART in vivo, 8-week-old hemizygous transgenic AIDS mice (NL4-3Delta gag/pol; TG) and wild-type FVB/n littermates were treated with the HAART combination of zidovudine, lamivudine, and indinavir or vehicle control for 10 days or 35 days. At termination of the experiments, mice underwent echocardiography, quantitation of abundance of molecular markers of CM (ventricular mRNA encoding atrial natriuretic factor [ANF] and sarcoplasmic calcium ATPase [SERCA2]), and determination of plasma LA. Myocardial histologic features were analyzed semiquantitatively and results were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy. After 35 days in the TG + HAART cohort, left ventricular mass increased 160% by echocardiography. Molecularly, ANF mRNA increased 250% and SERCA2 mRNA decreased 57%. Biochemically, LA was elevated (8.5 +/- 2.0 mM). Pathologically, granular cytoplasmic changes were found in cardiac myocytes, indicating enlarged, damaged mitochondria. Findings were confirmed ultrastructurally. No changes were found in other cohorts. After 10 days, only ANF was elevated, and only in the TG + HAART cohort. Results show that cumulative HAART caused mitochondrial CM with elevated LA in AIDS transgenic mice.","[{'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'lactate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 96, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 169, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'lactate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 212, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'LA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 221, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 228, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 255, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 369, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'zidovudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 491, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'indinavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 507, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D019469'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 678, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 757, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'LA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 811, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'LA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1492, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'LA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1513, 'end': 1517, 'mesh': 'D000163'}]" +59,11752354,Oral contraceptives and the risk of myocardial infarction.,"BACKGROUND: An association between the use of oral contraceptives and the risk of myocardial infarction has been found in some, but not all, studies. We investigated this association, according to the type of progestagen included in third-generation (i.e., desogestrel or gestodene) and second-generation (i.e., levonorgestrel) oral contraceptives, the dose of estrogen, and the presence or absence of prothrombotic mutations METHODS: In a nationwide, population-based, case-control study, we identified and enrolled 248 women 18 through 49 years of age who had had a first myocardial infarction between 1990 and 1995 and 925 control women who had not had a myocardial infarction and who were matched for age, calendar year of the index event, and area of residence. Subjects supplied information on oral-contraceptive use and major cardiovascular risk factors. An analysis for factor V Leiden and the G20210A mutation in the prothrombin gene was conducted in 217 patients and 763 controls RESULTS: The odds ratio for myocardial infarction among women who used any type of combined oral contraceptive, as compared with nonusers, was 2.0 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.5 to 2.8). The adjusted odds ratio was 2.5 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.5 to 4.1) among women who used second-generation oral contraceptives and 1.3 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.7 to 2.5) among those who used third-generation oral contraceptives. Among women who used oral contraceptives, the odds ratio was 2.1 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.5 to 3.0) for those without a prothrombotic mutation and 1.9 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.6 to 5.5) for those with a mutation CONCLUSIONS: The risk of myocardial infarction was increased among women who used second-generation oral contraceptives. The results with respect to the use of third-generation oral contraceptives were inconclusive but suggested that the risk was lower than the risk associated with second-generation oral contraceptives. The risk of myocardial infarction was similar among women who used oral contraceptives whether or not they had a prothrombotic mutation.","[{'text': 'Oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 36, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 105, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'progestagen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 268, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D011372'}, {'text': 'desogestrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 316, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D017135'}, {'text': 'gestodene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'C033273'}, {'text': 'levonorgestrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 371, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D016912'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 420, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 633, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 717, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'oral-contraceptive', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 859, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1077, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptive', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1358, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1488, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1530, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1747, 'end': 1768, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1822, 'end': 1841, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1899, 'end': 1918, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2023, 'end': 2042, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2056, 'end': 2077, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2111, 'end': 2130, 'mesh': 'D003276'}]" +60,12369736,Effects of 5-HT1B receptor ligands microinjected into the accumbal shell or core on the cocaine-induced locomotor hyperactivity in rats.,"The present study was designed to examine the effect of 5-HT1B receptor ligands microinjected into the subregions of the nucleus accumbens (the shell and the core) on the locomotor hyperactivity induced by cocaine in rats. Male Wistar rats were implanted bilaterally with cannulae into the accumbens shell or core, and then were locally injected with GR 55562 (an antagonist of 5-HT1B receptors) or CP 93129 (an agonist of 5-HT1B receptors). Given alone to any accumbal subregion, GR 55562 (0.1-10 microg/side) or CP 93129 (0.1-10 microg/side) did not change basal locomotor activity. Systemic cocaine (10 mg/kg) significantly increased the locomotor activity of rats. GR 55562 (0.1-10 microg/side), administered intra-accumbens shell prior to cocaine, dose-dependently attenuated the psychostimulant-induced locomotor hyperactivity. Such attenuation was not found in animals which had been injected with GR 55562 into the accumbens core. When injected into the accumbens shell (but not the core) before cocaine, CP 93129 (0.1-10 microg/side) enhanced the locomotor response to cocaine; the maximum effect being observed after 10 microg/side of the agonist. The later enhancement was attenuated after intra-accumbens shell treatment with GR 55562 (1 microg/side). Our findings indicate that cocaine induced hyperlocomotion is modified by 5-HT1B receptor ligands microinjected into the accumbens shell, but not core, this modification consisting in inhibitory and facilitatory effects of the 5-HT1B receptor antagonist (GR 55562) and agonist (CP 93129), respectively. In other words, the present results suggest that the accumbal shell 5-HT1B receptors play a permissive role in the behavioural response to the psychostimulant.","[{'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 88, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'locomotor hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'locomotor hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 308, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 343, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'GR 55562', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 488, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'C103477'}, {'text': 'CP 93129', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 536, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'C065046'}, {'text': 'GR 55562', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 618, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'C103477'}, {'text': 'CP 93129', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 651, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'C065046'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'GR 55562', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 806, 'end': 814, 'mesh': 'C103477'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 881, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'locomotor hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 946, 'end': 969, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'GR 55562', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1042, 'end': 1050, 'mesh': 'C103477'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1148, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'CP 93129', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1150, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'C065046'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'GR 55562', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1383, 'mesh': 'C103477'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1435, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'hyperlocomotion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1459, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'GR 55562', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1656, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'C103477'}, {'text': 'CP 93129', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1679, 'end': 1687, 'mesh': 'C065046'}]" +61,12639165,Ticlopidine-induced cholestatic hepatitis.,"OBJECTIVE: To report 2 cases of ticlopidine-induced cholestatic hepatitis, investigate its mechanism, and compare the observed main characteristics with those of the published cases. CASE SUMMARIES: Two patients developed prolonged cholestatic hepatitis after receiving ticlopidine following percutaneous coronary angioplasty, with complete remission during the follow-up period. T-cell stimulation by therapeutic concentration of ticlopidine was demonstrated in vitro in the patients, but not in healthy controls. DISCUSSION: Cholestatic hepatitis is a rare complication of the antiplatelet agent ticlopidine; several cases have been reported but few in the English literature. Our patients developed jaundice following treatment with ticlopidine and showed the clinical and laboratory characteristics of cholestatic hepatitis, which resolved after discontinuation of the drug. Hepatitis may develop weeks after discontinuation of the drug and may run a prolonged course, but complete remission was observed in all reported cases. An objective causality assessment revealed that the adverse drug event was probably related to the use of ticlopidine. The mechanisms of this ticlopidine-induced cholestasis are unclear. Immune mechanisms may be involved in the drug's hepatotoxicity, as suggested by the T-cell stimulation study reported here. CONCLUSIONS: Cholestatic hepatitis is a rare adverse effect of ticlopidine that may be immune mediated. Patients receiving the drug should be monitored with liver function tests along with complete blood cell counts. This complication will be observed even less often in the future as ticlopidine is being replaced by the newer antiplatelet agent clopidogrel.","[{'text': 'Ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 75, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 313, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 641, 'end': 652, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'jaundice', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 745, 'end': 753, 'mesh': 'D007565'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 779, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'Hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 922, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1181, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1217, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'cholestasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1248, 'mesh': 'D002779'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1310, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1449, 'end': 1460, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'ticlopidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1671, 'end': 1682, 'mesh': 'D013988'}, {'text': 'clopidogrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1733, 'end': 1744, 'mesh': 'C055162'}]" +62,12653683,Epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) subunit mRNA and protein expression in rats with puromycin aminonucleoside-induced nephrotic syndrome.,"In experimental nephrotic syndrome, urinary sodium excretion is decreased during the early phase of the disease. The molecular mechanism(s) leading to salt retention has not been completely elucidated. The rate-limiting constituent of collecting duct sodium transport is the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC). We examined the abundance of ENaC subunit mRNAs and proteins in puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN)-induced nephrotic syndrome. The time courses of urinary sodium excretion, plasma aldosterone concentration and proteinuria were studied in male Sprague-Dawley rats treated with a single dose of either PAN or vehicle. The relative amounts of alphaENaC, betaENaC and gammaENaC mRNAs were determined in kidneys from these rats by real-time quantitative TaqMan PCR, and the amounts of proteins by Western blot. The kinetics of urinary sodium excretion and the appearance of proteinuria were comparable with those reported previously. Sodium retention occurred on days 2, 3 and 6 after PAN injection. A significant up-regulation of alphaENaC and betaENaC mRNA abundance on days 1 and 2 preceded sodium retention on days 2 and 3. Conversely, down-regulation of alphaENaC, betaENaC and gammaENaC mRNA expression on day 3 occurred in the presence of high aldosterone concentrations, and was followed by a return of sodium excretion to control values. The amounts of alphaENaC, betaENaC and gammaENaC proteins were not increased during PAN-induced sodium retention. In conclusion, ENaC mRNA expression, especially alphaENaC, is increased in the very early phase of the experimental model of PAN-induced nephrotic syndrome in rats, but appears to escape from the regulation by aldosterone after day 3.","[{'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 116, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 152, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 393, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 509, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 536, 'end': 539, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 549, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 622, 'end': 633, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 652, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 745, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 978, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'Sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1077, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1125, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1388, 'end': 1399, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1448, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1580, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1723, 'end': 1726, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1735, 'end': 1753, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1808, 'end': 1819, 'mesh': 'D000450'}]" +63,14659530,NO-induced migraine attack: strong increase in plasma calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) concentration and negative correlation with platelet serotonin release.,"The aim of the present study was to investigate changes in the plasma calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) concentration and platelet serotonin (5-hydroxytriptamine, 5-HT) content during the immediate headache and the delayed genuine migraine attack provoked by nitroglycerin. Fifteen female migraineurs (without aura) and eight controls participated in the study. Sublingual nitroglycerin (0.5 mg) was administered. Blood was collected from the antecubital vein four times: 60 min before and after the nitroglycerin application, and 60 and 120 min after the beginning of the migraine attack (mean 344 and 404 min; 12 subjects). In those subjects who had no migraine attack (11 subjects) a similar time schedule was used. Plasma CGRP concentration increased significantly (P<0.01) during the migraine attack and returned to baseline after the cessation of the migraine. In addition, both change and peak, showed significant positive correlations with migraine headache intensity (P<0.001). However, plasma CGRP concentrations failed to change during immediate headache and in the subjects with no migraine attack. Basal CGRP concentration was significantly higher and platelet 5-HT content tended to be lower in subjects who experienced a migraine attack. Platelet serotonin content decreased significantly (P<0.01) after nitroglycerin in subjects with no migraine attack but no consistent change was observed in patients with migraine attack. In conclusion, the fact that plasma CGRP concentration correlates with the timing and severity of a migraine headache suggests a direct relationship between CGRP and migraine. In contrast, serotonin release from platelets does not provoke migraine, it may even counteract the headache and the concomitant CGRP release in this model.","[{'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 2, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 11, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'calcitonin gene-related peptide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 146, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'calcitonin gene-related peptide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 235, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 268, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 301, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-hydroxytriptamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 312, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 368, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 401, 'end': 409, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 429, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'migraineurs (without aura)', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 459, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D020326'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 543, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 743, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 825, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 896, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 959, 'end': 967, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1118, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1177, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1264, 'end': 1272, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1291, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1406, 'end': 1414, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1432, 'end': 1441, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1523, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1594, 'end': 1602, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1647, 'end': 1651, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1711, 'end': 1719, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1720, 'end': 1728, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1768, 'end': 1772, 'mesh': 'D015740'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1777, 'end': 1785, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1800, 'end': 1809, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1850, 'end': 1858, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1887, 'end': 1895, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'CGRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1916, 'end': 1920, 'mesh': 'D015740'}]" +64,15804801,Coronary aneurysm after implantation of a paclitaxel-eluting stent.,"Formation of coronary aneurysm is a rare complication of stenting with bare metal stents, but based on experimental studies drug-eluting stents may induce toxic effects on the vessel wall with incomplete stent apposition, aneurysm formation and with the potential of stent thrombosis or vessel rupture.

Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of U-II causes hypertension and bradycardia and stimulates prolactin and thyrotropin secretion. However, the behavioral effects of centrally administered U-II have received little attention. In the present study, we tested the effects of i.c.v. injections of U-II on behavioral, metabolic, and endocrine responses in mice. Administration of graded doses of U-II (1-10,000 ng/mouse) provoked: (1) a dose-dependent reduction in the number of head dips in the hole-board test; (2) a dose-dependent reduction in the number of entries in the white chamber in the black-and-white compartment test, and in the number of entries in the central platform and open arms in the plus-maze test; and (3) a dose-dependent increase in the duration of immobility in the forced-swimming test and tail suspension test. Intracerebroventricular injection of U-II also caused an increase in: food intake at doses of 100 and 1,000 ng/mouse, water intake at doses of 100-10,000 ng/mouse, and horizontal locomotion activity at a dose of 10,000 ng/mouse. Whatever was the dose, the central administration of U-II had no effect on body temperature, nociception, apomorphine-induced penile erection and climbing behavior, and stress-induced plasma corticosterone level. Taken together, the present study demonstrates that the central injection of U-II at doses of 1-10,000 ng/mouse induces anxiogenic- and depressant-like effects in mouse. These data suggest that U-II may be involved in some aspects of psychiatric disorders.","[{'text': 'urotensin-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'Urotensin-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 67, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 197, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 209, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 453, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 551, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1276, 'end': 1280, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1329, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'penile erection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1364, 'mesh': 'D010409'}, {'text': 'corticosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'D003345'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1513, 'end': 1517, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'U-II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1630, 'end': 1634, 'mesh': 'D014579'}, {'text': 'psychiatric disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1670, 'end': 1691, 'mesh': 'D001523'}]" +66,16274958,Recurrent dysphonia and acitretin.,"We report the case of a woman complaining of dysphonia while she was treated by acitretin.

Secondary hyperalgesia shares clinical characteristics with neurogenic hyperalgesia in patients with neuropathic pain. Abnormal brain responses to somatosensory stimuli have been found in patients with hyperalgesia as well as in normal subjects during experimental central sensitization. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of gabapentin, a drug effective in neuropathic pain patients, on brain processing of nociceptive information in normal and central sensitization states. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in normal volunteers, we studied the gabapentin-induced modulation of brain activity in response to nociceptive mechanical stimulation of normal skin and capsaicin-induced secondary hyperalgesia. The dose of gabapentin was 1,800 mg per os, in a single administration. We found that (i) gabapentin reduced the activations in the bilateral operculoinsular cortex, independently of the presence of central sensitization; (ii) gabapentin reduced the activation in the brainstem, only during central sensitization; (iii) gabapentin suppressed stimulus-induced deactivations, only during central sensitization; this effect was more robust than the effect on brain activation. The observed drug-induced effects were not due to changes in the baseline fMRI signal. These findings indicate that gabapentin has a measurable antinociceptive effect and a stronger antihyperalgesic effect most evident in the brain areas undergoing deactivation, thus supporting the concept that gabapentin is more effective in modulating nociceptive transmission when central sensitization is present.","[{'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 30, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 259, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'tissue injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 300, 'end': 313, 'mesh': 'D017695'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 315, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'Secondary hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 340, 'end': 362, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'neurogenic hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 400, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 441, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 542, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 679, 'end': 689, 'mesh': 'C040029'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 711, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 917, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'C040029'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1034, 'end': 1043, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1052, 'end': 1074, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1088, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'C040029'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'C040029'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1303, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'C040029'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1396, 'end': 1406, 'mesh': 'C040029'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1666, 'end': 1676, 'mesh': 'C040029'}, {'text': 'gabapentin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1846, 'end': 1856, 'mesh': 'C040029'}]" +68,16574712,MDMA polydrug users show process-specific central executive impairments coupled with impaired social and emotional judgement processes.,"In recent years working memory deficits have been reported in users of MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, ecstasy). The current study aimed to assess the impact of MDMA use on three separate central executive processes (set shifting, inhibition and memory updating) and also on ""prefrontal"" mediated social and emotional judgement processes. Fifteen polydrug ecstasy users and 15 polydrug non-ecstasy user controls completed a general drug use questionnaire, the Brixton Spatial Anticipation task (set shifting), Backward Digit Span procedure (memory updating), Inhibition of Return (inhibition), an emotional intelligence scale, the Tromso Social Intelligence Scale and the Dysexecutive Questionnaire (DEX). Compared with MDMA-free polydrug controls, MDMA polydrug users showed impairments in set shifting and memory updating, and also in social and emotional judgement processes. The latter two deficits remained significant after controlling for other drug use. These data lend further support to the proposal that cognitive processes mediated by the prefrontal cortex may be impaired by recreational ecstasy use.","[{'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 4, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'impaired social and emotional judgement processes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 85, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'memory deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 160, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 207, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': '3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 213, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 248, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 306, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 535, 'end': 542, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 869, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 894, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D018817'}]" +69,17111419,Severe citrate toxicity complicating volunteer apheresis platelet donation.,"We report a case of severe citrate toxicity during volunteer donor apheresis platelet collection. The donor was a 40-year-old female, first-time apheresis platelet donor. Past medical history was remarkable for hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and depression. Reported medications included bumetanide, pravastatin, and paroxetine. Thirty minutes from the start of the procedure, the donor noted tingling around the mouth, hands, and feet. She then very rapidly developed acute onset of severe facial and extremity tetany. Empirical treatment with intravenous calcium gluconate was initiated, and muscle contractions slowly subsided over approximately 10 to 15 minutes. The events are consistent with a severe reaction to calcium chelation by sodium citrate anticoagulant resulting in symptomatic systemic hypocalcemia. Upon additional retrospective analysis, it was noted that bumetanide is a loop diuretic that may cause significant hypocalcemia. We conclude that careful screening for medications and underlying conditions predisposing to hypocalcemia is recommended to help prevent severe reactions due to citrate toxicity. Laboratory measurement of pre-procedure serum calcium levels in selected donors may identify cases requiring heightened vigilance. The case also illustrates the importance of maintaining preparedness for managing rare but serious reactions in volunteer apheresis blood donors.","[{'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 7, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'C102006'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'C102006'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 287, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hyperlipidemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 301, 'end': 315, 'mesh': 'D006949'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 321, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'bumetanide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 363, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D002034'}, {'text': 'pravastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 375, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D017035'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 392, 'end': 402, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'tetany', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 587, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D013746'}, {'text': 'calcium gluconate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D002125'}, {'text': 'muscle contractions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 688, 'mesh': 'C536214'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'sodium citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 815, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'C102006'}, {'text': 'hypocalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 878, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D006996'}, {'text': 'bumetanide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 950, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D002034'}, {'text': 'loop diuretic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 966, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D049994'}, {'text': 'hypocalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1007, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D006996'}, {'text': 'hypocalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1114, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D006996'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1182, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'C102006'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D002118'}]" +70,17175308,Proteinuria after conversion to sirolimus in renal transplant recipients.,"Sirolimus (SRL) is a new, potent immunosuppressive agent. More recently, proteinuria has been reported as a consequence of sirolimus therapy, although the mechanism has remained unclear. We retrospectively examined the records of 25 renal transplant patients, who developed or displayed increased proteinuria after SRL conversion. The patient cohort (14 men, 11 women) was treated with SRL as conversion therapy, due to chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) (n = 15) neoplasia (n = 8); Kaposi's sarcoma, Four skin cancers, One intestinal tumors, One renal cell carsinom) or BK virus nephropathy (n = 2). SRL was started at a mean of 78 +/- 42 (15 to 163) months after transplantation. Mean follow-up on SRL therapy was 20 +/- 12 (6 to 43) months. Proteinuria increased from 0.445 (0 to 1.5) g/d before conversion to 3.2 g/dL (0.2 to 12) after conversion (P = 0.001). Before conversion 8 (32%) patients had no proteinuria, whereas afterwards all patients had proteinuria. In 28% of patients proteinuria remained unchanged, whereas it increased in 68% of patients. In 40% it increased by more than 100%. Twenty-eight percent of patients showed increased proteinuria to the nephrotic range. Biopsies performed in five patients revealed new pathological changes: One membranoproliferative glomerulopathy and interstitial nephritis. These patients showed persistently good graft function. Serum creatinine values did not change significantly: 1.98 +/- 0.8 mg/dL before SRL therapy and 2.53 +/- 1.9 mg/dL at last follow-up (P = .14). Five grafts were lost and the patients returned to dialysis. Five patients displayed CAN and Kaposi's sarcoma. Mean urinary protein of patients who returned to dialysis was 1.26 (0.5 to 3.5) g/d before and 4.7 (3 to 12) g/d after conversion (P = .01). Mean serum creatinine level before conversion was 2.21 mg/dL and thereafter, 4.93 mg/dL (P = .02). Heavy proteinuria was common after the use of SRL as rescue therapy for renal transplantation. Therefore, conversion should be considered for patients who have not developed advanced CAN and proteinuria.

Whether or not the neuronal transmission may be affected by cystitis was presently investigated. Responses of urinary strip preparations from control and cyclophosphamide-pretreated rats to electrical field stimulation and to agonists were assessed in the absence and presence of muscarinic, adrenergic and purinergic receptor antagonists. Generally, atropine reduced contractions, but in contrast to controls, it also reduced responses to low electrical field stimulation intensity (1-5 Hz) in inflamed preparations. In both types, purinoceptor desensitization with alpha,beta-methylene adenosine-5'-triphosphate (alpha,beta-meATP) caused further reductions at low frequencies (<10 Hz). The muscarinic receptor antagonists atropine, 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine (4-DAMP) ('M(1)/M(3)/M(5)-selective'), methoctramine ('M(2)-selective') and pirenzepine ('M(1)-selective') antagonized the tonic component of the electrical field stimulation-evoked contractile response more potently than the phasic component. 4-DAMP inhibited the tonic contractions in controls more potently than methoctramine and pirenzepine. In inflamed preparations, the muscarinic receptor antagonism on the phasic component of the electrical field stimulation-evoked contraction was decreased and the pirenzepine and 4-DAMP antagonism on the tonic component was much less efficient than in controls. In contrast to controls, methoctramine increased -- instead of decreased -- the tonic responses at high frequencies. While contractions to carbachol and ATP were the same in inflamed and in control strips when related to a reference potassium response, isoprenaline-induced relaxations were smaller in inflamed strips. Thus, in cystitis substantial changes of the efferent functional responses occur. While postjunctional beta-adrenoceptor-mediated relaxations are reduced, effects by prejunctional inhibitory muscarinic receptors may be increased.","[{'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 99, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 123, 'end': 139, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 148, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 323, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 417, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': ""alpha,beta-methylene adenosine-5'-triphosphate"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'C002630'}, {'text': 'alpha,beta-meATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'C002630'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 987, 'end': 995, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': '4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 997, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'C042375'}, {'text': '4-DAMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'C042375'}, {'text': 'methoctramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'C054938'}, {'text': 'pirenzepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D010890'}, {'text': '4-DAMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'C042375'}, {'text': 'methoctramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1362, 'mesh': 'C054938'}, {'text': 'pirenzepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1367, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D010890'}, {'text': 'pirenzepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1542, 'end': 1553, 'mesh': 'D010890'}, {'text': '4-DAMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1564, 'mesh': 'C042375'}, {'text': 'methoctramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1666, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'C054938'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1789, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1794, 'end': 1797, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1874, 'end': 1883, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'isoprenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1894, 'end': 1906, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1969, 'end': 1977, 'mesh': 'D003556'}]" +72,18020536,"Associations between use of benzodiazepines or related drugs and health, physical abilities and cognitive function: a non-randomised clinical study in the elderly.","OBJECTIVE: To describe associations between the use of benzodiazepines or related drugs (BZDs/RDs) and health, functional abilities and cognitive function in the elderly. METHODS: A non-randomised clinical study of patients aged > or =65 years admitted to acute hospital wards during 1 month. 164 patients (mean age +/- standard deviation [SD] 81.6 +/- 6.8 years) were admitted. Of these, nearly half (n = 78) had used BZDs/RDs before admission, and the remainder (n = 86) were non-users. Cognitive ability was assessed by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Patients scoring > or =20 MMSE sum points were interviewed (n = 79) and questioned regarding symptoms and functional abilities during the week prior to admission. Data on use of BZDs/RDs before admission, current medications and discharge diagnoses were collected from medical records. Health, physical abilities and cognitive function were compared between BZD/RD users and non-users, and adjustments were made for confounding variables. The residual serum concentrations of oxazepam, temazepam and zopiclone were analysed. RESULTS: The mean +/- SD duration of BZD/RD use was 7 +/- 7 years (range 1-31). Two or three BZDs/RDs were concomitantly taken by 26% of users (n = 20). Long-term use of these drugs was associated with female sex and use of a higher number of drugs with effects on the CNS, which tended to be related to diagnosed dementia. After adjustment for these variables as confounders, use of BZDs/RDs was not associated with cognitive function as measured by the MMSE. However, use of BZDs/RDs was associated with dizziness, inability to sleep after awaking at night and tiredness in the mornings during the week prior to admission and with stronger depressive symptoms measured at the beginning of the hospital stay. Use of BZDs/RDs tended to be associated with a reduced ability to walk and shorter night-time sleep during the week prior to admission. A higher residual serum concentration of temazepam correlated with a lower MMSE sum score after adjustment for confounding variables. CONCLUSIONS: Long-term use and concomitant use of more than one BZD/RD were common in elderly patients hospitalised because of acute illnesses. Long-term use was associated with daytime and night-time symptoms indicative of poorer health and potentially caused by the adverse effects of these drugs.","[{'text': 'benzodiazepines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 219, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'BZDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 257, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'BZDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'BZDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 911, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'oxazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D010076'}, {'text': 'temazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1224, 'mesh': 'D013693'}, {'text': 'zopiclone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'C515050'}, {'text': 'BZDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1347, 'end': 1351, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'dementia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D003704'}, {'text': 'BZDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1638, 'end': 1642, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'BZDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1731, 'end': 1735, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'dizziness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1760, 'end': 1769, 'mesh': 'D004244'}, {'text': 'inability to sleep', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1789, 'mesh': 'D007319'}, {'text': 'tiredness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1817, 'end': 1826, 'mesh': 'D005221'}, {'text': 'depressive symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1896, 'end': 1915, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'BZDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1971, 'end': 1975, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'temazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2141, 'end': 2150, 'mesh': 'D013693'}]" +73,18023325,Acute vocal fold palsy after acute disulfiram intoxication.,"Acute peripheral neuropathy caused by a disulfiram overdose is very rare and there is no report of it leading to vocal fold palsy. A 49-year-old woman was transferred to our department because of quadriparesis, lancinating pain, sensory loss, and paresthesia of the distal limbs. One month previously, she had taken a single high dose of disulfiram (130 tablets of ALCOHOL STOP TAB, Shin-Poong Pharm. Co., Ansan, Korea) in a suicide attempt. She was not an alcoholic. For the first few days after ingestion, she was in a confused state and had mild to moderate ataxia and giddiness. She noticed hoarseness and distally accentuated motor and sensory dysfunction after she had recovered from this state. A nerve conduction study was consistent with severe sensorimotor axonal polyneuropathy. Laryngeal electromyography (thyroarytenoid muscle) showed ample denervation potentials. Laryngoscopy revealed asymmetric vocal fold movements during phonation. Her vocal change and weakness began to improve spontaneously about 3 weeks after transfer. This was a case of acute palsy of the recurrent laryngeal nerve and superimposed severe acute sensorimotor axonal polyneuropathy caused by high-dose disulfiram intoxication.","[{'text': 'vocal fold palsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 6, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'disulfiram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 35, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D004221'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'disulfiram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 100, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D004221'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'vocal fold palsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 173, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'quadriparesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 256, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D011782'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 283, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'sensory loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 289, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'C580162'}, {'text': 'paresthesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 307, 'end': 318, 'mesh': 'D010292'}, {'text': 'disulfiram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D004221'}, {'text': 'ALCOHOL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 425, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'ataxia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 621, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D001259'}, {'text': 'giddiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 632, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D004244'}, {'text': 'hoarseness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 655, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D006685'}, {'text': 'polyneuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 834, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'D011115'}, {'text': 'palsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1126, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'polyneuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1229, 'mesh': 'D011115'}, {'text': 'disulfiram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1260, 'mesh': 'D004221'}]" +74,18208574,Higher optical density of an antigen assay predicts thrombosis in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.,"OBJECTIVES: To correlate optical density and percent inhibition of a two-step heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) antigen assay with thrombosis; the assay utilizes reaction inhibition characteristics of a high heparin concentration. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with more than 50% decrease in platelet count or thrombocytopenia (<150 x 10(9)/L) after exposure to heparin, who had a positive two-step antigen assay [optical density (OD) >0.4 and >50 inhibition with high concentration of heparin] were included in the study. RESULTS: Forty of 94 HIT patients had thrombosis at diagnosis; 54/94 had isolated-HIT without thrombosis. Eight of the isolated-HIT patients developed thrombosis within the next 30 d; thus, a total of 48 patients had thrombosis at day 30. At diagnosis there was no significant difference in OD between HIT patients with thrombosis and those with isolated-HIT. However, OD was significantly higher in all patients with thrombosis (n = 48, 1.34 +/- 0.89), including isolated-HIT patients who later developed thrombosis within 30 d (n = 8, 1.84 +/- 0.64) as compared to isolated-HIT patients who did not develop thrombosis (0.96 +/- 0.75; P = 0.011 and P = 0.008). The Receiver Operative Characteristic Curve showed that OD >1.27 in the isolated-HIT group had a significantly higher chance of developing thrombosis by day 30. None of these groups showed significant difference in percent inhibition. Multivariate analysis showed a 2.8-fold increased risk of thrombosis in females. Similarly, thrombotic risk increased with age and OD values. CONCLUSION: Higher OD is associated with significant risk of subsequent thrombosis in patients with isolated-HIT; percent inhibition, however, was not predictive.","[{'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 52, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 96, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 208, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 250, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 430, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 606, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 664, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 681, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 725, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 737, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 771, 'end': 774, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 794, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 860, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 945, 'end': 948, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 963, 'end': 973, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 998, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1071, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1116, 'end': 1119, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1386, 'end': 1389, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1598, 'end': 1608, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1632, 'end': 1642, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1754, 'end': 1764, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1791, 'end': 1794, 'mesh': 'D013921'}]" +75,18343374,Central retinal vein occlusion associated with clomiphene-induced ovulation.,"OBJECTIVE: To report a case of central retinal vein occlusion associated with clomiphene citrate (CC).

The aim of this study is to examine the role of gastric acid back-diffusion, mast cell histamine release, lipid peroxide (LPO) generation and mucosal microvascular permeability in modulating gastric hemorrhage and ulcer in rats with atherosclerosis induced by coadministration of vitamin D2 and cholesterol. Additionally, the protective effect of verapamil on this ulcer model was evaluated. Male Wistar rats were challenged intragastrically once daily for 9 days with 1.0 ml/kg of corn oil containing vitamin D2 and cholesterol to induce atherosclerosis. Control rats received corn oil only. After gastric surgery, rat stomachs were irrigated for 3 h with either simulated gastric juice or normal saline. Gastric acid back-diffusion, mucosal LPO generation, histamine concentration, microvascular permeability, luminal hemoglobin content and ulcer areas were determined. Elevated atherosclerotic parameters, such as serum calcium, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein concentration were obtained in atherosclerotic rats. Severe gastric ulcers accompanied with increased ulcerogenic factors, including gastric acid back-diffusion, histamine release, LPO generation and luminal hemoglobin content were also observed in these rats. Moreover, a positive correlation of histamine to gastric hemorrhage and to ulcer was found in those atherosclerotic rats. This hemorrhagic ulcer and various ulcerogenic parameters were dose-dependently ameliorated by daily intragastric verapamil. Atherosclerosis could produce gastric hemorrhagic ulcer via aggravation of gastric acid back-diffusion, LPO generation, histamine release and microvascular permeability that could be ameliorated by verapamil in rats.","[{'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'gastric hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 34, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'ulcers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 54, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'atherosclerotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 71, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'gastric hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 133, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'atherosclerotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 187, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'gastric hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 412, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'ulcer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 435, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 454, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'vitamin D2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 511, 'mesh': 'D004872'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'ulcer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 586, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'vitamin D2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 723, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D004872'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 738, 'end': 749, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 980, 'end': 989, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'luminal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1033, 'end': 1040, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'ulcer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1064, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'atherosclerotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1102, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1144, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'atherosclerotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1245, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'ulcers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1267, 'end': 1273, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1361, 'end': 1370, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'luminal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1399, 'end': 1406, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1496, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'gastric hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1509, 'end': 1527, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'ulcer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1540, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'atherosclerotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1560, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1587, 'end': 1598, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'ulcer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1599, 'end': 1604, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1696, 'end': 1705, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'Atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1707, 'end': 1722, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'gastric hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1756, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'ulcer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1757, 'end': 1762, 'mesh': 'D014456'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1827, 'end': 1836, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1905, 'end': 1914, 'mesh': 'D014700'}]" +78,18619688,Adriamycin-induced autophagic cardiomyocyte death plays a pathogenic role in a rat model of heart failure.,"BACKGROUND: The mechanisms underlying heart failure induced by adriamycin are very complicated and still unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate whether autophagy was involved in the progression of heart failure induced by adriamycin, so that we can develop a novel treatment strategy for heart failure. METHODS: 3-methyladenine (3MA), a specific inhibitor on autophagy was used in a heart failure model of rats induced by adriamycin. Neonatal cardiomyocytes were isolated from Sprague-Dawley rat hearts and randomly divided into controls, an adriamycin-treated group, and a 3MA plus adriamycin-treated group. We then examined the morphology, expression of beclin 1 gene, mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), and Na+-K+ ATPase activity in vivo. We also assessed cell viability, mitochondrial membrane potential changes and counted autophagic vacuoles in cultured cardiomyocytes. In addition, we analyzed the expression of autophagy associated gene, beclin 1 using RT-PCR and Western blotting in an animal model. RESULTS: 3MA significantly improved cardiac function and reduced mitochondrial injury. Furthermore, adriamycin induced the formation of autophagic vacuoles, and 3MA strongly downregulated the expression of beclin 1 in adriamycin-induced failing heart and inhibited the formation of autophagic vacuoles. CONCLUSION: Autophagic cardiomyocyte death plays an important role in the pathogenesis of heart failure in rats induced by adriamycin. Mitochondrial injury may be involved in the progression of heart failure caused by adriamycin via the autophagy pathway.","[{'text': 'Adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 92, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 145, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 170, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 315, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 340, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 406, 'end': 419, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': '3-methyladenine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 430, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'C025946'}, {'text': '3MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'C025946'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 501, 'end': 514, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 540, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 670, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': '3MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'C025946'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 701, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 842, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': '3MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1146, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'C025946'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': '3MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'C025946'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1365, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1477, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1573, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1634, 'end': 1647, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1658, 'end': 1668, 'mesh': 'D004317'}]" +79,19308880,"Confusion, a rather serious adverse drug reaction with valproic acid: a review of the French Pharmacovigilance database.","INTRODUCTION: Confusion is an adverse drug reaction frequently observed with valproic acid.

RESULTS: 272 cases of confusion were reported with valproic acid: 153 women and 119 men. Confusion mostly occurred during the two first weeks following valproic acid exposure (39.7%). It was ""serious"" for almost 2/3 of the patients (62.5%) and its outcome favourable in most of the cases (82%). The occurrence of this ADR was more frequent in patients aged between 61 and 80 years.

In addition, working memory processing in ecstasy users has been shown to be associated with neural alterations in hippocampal and/or cortical regions as measured by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Using functional imaging and a face-learning task, we investigated neural correlates of encoding and recalling face-name associations in 20 recreational drug users whose predominant drug use was ecstasy and 20 controls. To address the potential confounding effects of the cannabis use of the ecstasy using group, a second analysis included 14 previously tested cannabis users (Nestor, L., Roberts, G., Garavan, H., Hester, R., 2008. Deficits in learning and memory: parahippocampal hyperactivity and frontocortical hypoactivity in cannabis users. Neuroimage 40, 1328-1339). Ecstasy users performed significantly worse in learning and memory compared to controls and cannabis users. A conjunction analysis of the encode and recall phases of the task revealed ecstasy-specific hyperactivity in bilateral frontal regions, left temporal, right parietal, bilateral temporal, and bilateral occipital brain regions. Ecstasy-specific hypoactivity was evident in the right dorsal anterior cingulated cortex (ACC) and left posterior cingulated cortex. In both ecstasy and cannabis groups brain activation was decreased in the right medial frontal gyrus, left parahippocampal gyrus, left dorsal cingulate gyrus, and left caudate. These results elucidated ecstasy-related deficits, only some of which might be attributed to cannabis use. These ecstasy-specific effects may be related to the vulnerability of isocortical and allocortical regions to the neurotoxic effects of ecstasy.","[{'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 251, 'end': 258, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 616, 'end': 623, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cannabis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 693, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D002188'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 713, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cannabis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D002188'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 903, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'cannabis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 952, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D002188'}, {'text': 'Ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 995, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cannabis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D002188'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1179, 'end': 1186, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1196, 'end': 1209, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'Ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1330, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1471, 'end': 1478, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cannabis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D002188'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1672, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cannabis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1733, 'end': 1741, 'mesh': 'D002188'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1753, 'end': 1760, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1861, 'end': 1871, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1883, 'end': 1890, 'mesh': 'D018817'}]" +81,20003049,Prolonged elevation of plasma argatroban in a cardiac transplant patient with a suspected history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia with thrombosis.,"BACKGROUND: Direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) provide an alternative method of anticoagulation for patients with a history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) or HIT with thrombosis (HITT) undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). In the following report, a 65-year-old critically ill patient with a suspected history of HITT was administered argatroban for anticoagulation on bypass during heart transplantation. The patient required massive transfusion support (55 units of red blood cells, 42 units of fresh-frozen plasma, 40 units of cryoprecipitate, 40 units of platelets, and three doses of recombinant Factor VIIa) for severe intraoperative and postoperative bleeding. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Plasma samples from before and after CPB were analyzed postoperatively for argatroban concentration using a modified ecarin clotting time (ECT) assay. RESULTS: Unexpectedly high concentrations of argatroban were measured in these samples (range, 0-32 microg/mL), and a prolonged plasma argatroban half life (t(1/2)) of 514 minutes was observed (published elimination t(1/2) is 39-51 minutes [< or = 181 minutes with hepatic impairment]). CONCLUSIONS: Correlation of plasma argatroban concentration versus the patient's coagulation variables and clinical course suggest that prolonged elevated levels of plasma argatroban may have contributed to the patient's extended coagulopathy. Because DTIs do not have reversal agents, surgical teams and transfusion services should remain aware of the possibility of massive transfusion events during anticoagulation with these agents. This is the first report to measure plasma argatroban concentration in the context of CPB and extended coagulopathy.","[{'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 117, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 139, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 277, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 293, 'end': 309, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 311, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 328, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HITT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 340, 'end': 344, 'mesh': 'D013921|D013927'}, {'text': 'critically ill', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 426, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D016638'}, {'text': 'HITT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 477, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D013921|D013927'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 499, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 933, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1054, 'end': 1064, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1144, 'end': 1154, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'hepatic impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1292, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1331, 'end': 1341, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1468, 'end': 1478, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'coagulopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1538, 'mesh': 'D001778'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1776, 'end': 1786, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'coagulopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1836, 'end': 1848, 'mesh': 'D001778'}]" +82,20196116,"Antituberculosis therapy-induced acute liver failure: magnitude, profile, prognosis, and predictors of outcome.","Antituberculosis therapy (ATT)-associated acute liver failure (ATT-ALF) is the commonest drug-induced ALF in South Asia. Prospective studies on ATT-ALF are lacking. The current study prospectively evaluated the magnitude, clinical course, outcome, and prognostic factors in ATT-ALF. From January 1986 to January 2009, 1223 consecutive ALF patients were evaluated: ATT alone was the cause in 70 (5.7%) patients. Another 15 (1.2%) had ATT and simultaneous hepatitis virus infection. In 44 (62.8%) patients, ATT was prescribed empirically without definitive evidence of tuberculosis. ATT-ALF patients were younger (32.87 [+/-15.8] years), and 49 (70%) of them were women. Most had hyperacute presentation; the median icterus encephalopathy interval was 4.5 (0-30) days. The median duration of ATT before ALF was 30 (7-350) days. At presentation, advanced encephalopathy and cerebral edema were present in 51 (76%) and 29 (41.4%) patients, respectively. Gastrointestinal bleed, seizures, infection, and acute renal failure were documented in seven (10%), five (7.1%), 26 (37.1%), and seven (10%) patients, respectively. Compared with hepatitis E virus (HEV) and non-A non-E-induced ALF, ATT-ALF patients had nearly similar presentations except for older age and less elevation of liver enzymes. The mortality rate among patients with ATT-ALF was high (67.1%, n = 47), and only 23 (32.9%) patients recovered with medical treatment. In multivariate analysis, three factors independently predicted mortality: serum bilirubin (>or=10.8 mg/dL), prothrombin time (PT) prolongation (>or=26 seconds), and grade III/IV encephalopathy at presentation. CONCLUSION: ATT-ALF constituted 5.7% of ALF at our center and had a high mortality rate. Because the mortality rate is so high, determining which factors are predictors is less important. A high proportion of patients had consumed ATT empirically, which could have been prevented.","[{'text': 'Antituberculosis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D000995'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 33, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'Antituberculosis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 112, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D000995'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 154, 'end': 173, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 179, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 260, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 390, 'end': 393, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 447, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'hepatitis virus infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 566, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D006525'}, {'text': 'tuberculosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 679, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D014376'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 697, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'icterus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 826, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D007565'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 834, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 964, 'end': 978, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'cerebral edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 983, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'Gastrointestinal bleed', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1062, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'hepatitis E', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1242, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D016751'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1290, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1302, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1446, 'end': 1449, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'bilirubin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1620, 'end': 1629, 'mesh': 'D001663'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1718, 'end': 1732, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1766, 'end': 1769, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1790, 'end': 1793, 'mesh': 'D017114'}]" +83,20470218,Central nervous system complications during treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a single pediatric institution.,"Central nervous system (CNS) complications during treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) remain a challenging clinical problem.

AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW: This article reviews the pharmacology and efficacy of capecitabine with a special emphasis on its safety. WHAT THE READER WILL GAIN: The reader will gain better insight into the safety of capecitabine in special populations such as patients with advanced age, renal and kidney disease. We also explore different dosing and schedules of capecitabine administration. TAKE HOME MESSAGE: Capecitabine is an oral prodrug of 5-FU and was developed to fulfill the need for a more convenient therapy and provide an improved safety/efficacy profile. It has shown promising results alone or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents in colorectal, breast, pancreaticobiliary, gastric, renal cell and head and neck cancers. The most commonly reported toxic effects of capecitabine are diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, stomatitis and hand-foot syndrome. Capecitabine has a well-established safety profile and can be given safely to patients with advanced age, hepatic and renal dysfunctions.","[{'text': 'capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'C110904'}, {'text': 'Fluoropyrimidines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 76, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 108, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 169, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'C110904'}, {'text': 'capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 467, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'C110904'}, {'text': 'renal and kidney disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 539, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 615, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'C110904'}, {'text': 'Capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 675, 'mesh': 'C110904'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 698, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'C110904'}, {'text': 'diarrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1077, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1079, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'stomatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D013280'}, {'text': 'hand-foot syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1104, 'end': 1122, 'mesh': 'D060831'}, {'text': 'Capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1136, 'mesh': 'C110904'}]" +85,20882060,Effects of pallidal neurotensin on haloperidol-induced parkinsonian catalepsy: behavioral and electrophysiological studies.,"OBJECTIVE: The globus pallidus plays a critical role in movement regulation. Previous studies have indicated that the globus pallidus receives neurotensinergic innervation from the striatum, and systemic administration of a neurotensin analog could produce antiparkinsonian effects. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of pallidal neurotensin on haloperidol-induced parkinsonian symptoms. METHODS: Behavioral experiments and electrophysiological recordings were performed in the present study. RESULTS: Bilateral infusions of neurotensin into the globus pallidus reversed haloperidol-induced parkinsonian catalepsy in rats. Electrophysiological recordings showed that microinjection of neurotensin induced excitation of pallidal neurons in the presence of systemic haloperidol administration. The neurotensin type-1 receptor antagonist SR48692 blocked both the behavioral and the electrophysiological effects induced by neurotensin. CONCLUSION: Activation of pallidal neurotensin receptors may be involved in neurotensin-induced antiparkinsonian effects.","[{'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D009496'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 35, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 359, 'mesh': 'D009496'}, {'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 470, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D009496'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 485, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 665, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D009496'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 711, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 731, 'end': 753, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D009496'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 904, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'neurotensin type-1 receptor antagonist', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 936, 'end': 974, 'mesh': 'C079087'}, {'text': 'SR48692', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 975, 'end': 982, 'mesh': 'C079087'}, {'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1070, 'mesh': 'D009496'}, {'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1118, 'mesh': 'D009496'}, {'text': 'neurotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D009496'}]" +86,26094,Antihypertensive drugs and depression: a reappraisal.,"Eighty-nine new referral hypertensive out-patients and 46 new referral non-hypertensive chronically physically ill out-patients completed a mood rating scale at regular intervals for one year.

Before nitroprusside infusion, 5 cm H2O CPAP significantly, P less than .05, decreased arterial blood pressure, but did not significantly alter heart rate, cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance, or QS/QT. Ten cm H2O CPAP before nitroprusside infusion produced a further decrease in arterial blood pressure and significantly increased heart rate and decreased cardiac output and QS/QT. Nitroprusside caused significant decreases in arterial blood pressure and systemic vascular resistance and increases in heart rate, but did not change cardiac output or QS/QT. Five cm H2O CPAP during nitroprusside did not further alter any of the above-mentioned variables. However, 10 cm H2O CPAP decreased arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, and QS/QT. These data indicate that nitroprusside infusion rates that decrease mean arterial blood pressure by 40-50 per cent do not change cardiac output or QS/QT. During nitroprusside infusion low levels of CPAP do not markedly alter cardiovascular dynamics, but high levels of CPAP (10 cm H2O), while decreasing QS/QT, produce marked decreases in arterial blood pressure and cardiac output.","[{'text': 'nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 82, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'sodium nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 255, 'end': 275, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 352, 'end': 365, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'H2O', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 381, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D014867'}, {'text': 'H2O', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 564, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D014867'}, {'text': 'nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'decrease in arterial blood pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 622, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'decreased cardiac output', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 701, 'end': 725, 'mesh': 'D002303'}, {'text': 'Nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 737, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'decreases in arterial blood pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 770, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'H2O', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 921, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'D014867'}, {'text': 'nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 937, 'end': 950, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'H2O', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D014867'}, {'text': 'nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1258, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'H2O', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1378, 'end': 1381, 'mesh': 'D014867'}]" +88,869641,Mediation of enhanced reflex vagal bradycardia by L-dopa via central dopamine formation in dogs.,"L-Dopa (5 mg/kg i.v.) decreased blood pressure and heart rate after extracerebral decarboxylase inhibition with MK-486 (25 mg/kg i.v.) in anesthetize MAO-inhibited dogs. In addition, reflex bradycardia caused by injected norepinephrine was significantly enhanced by L-dopa, DL-Threo-dihydroxyphenylserine had no effect on blood pressure, heart rate or reflex responses to norepinephrine. FLA-63, a dopamine-beta-oxidase inhibitor, did not have any effect on the hypotension, bradycardia or reflex-enhancing effect of L-dopa. Pimozide did not affect the actions of L-dopa on blood pressure and heart rate but completely blocked the enhancement of reflexes. Removal of the carotid sinuses caused an elevation blood pressure and heart rate and abolished the negative chronotropic effect of norepinephrine. However, L-dopa restored the bradycardia caused by norepinephrine in addition to decreasing blood pressure and heart rate. 5-HTP (5 mg/kg i.v.) decreased blood pressure and heart rate and decreased the reflex bradycardia to norepinephrine.

In individuals with preexisting, high-grade coronary arterial narrowing, acute myocardial infarction may result from an increase in myocardial oxygen demand associated with cocaine-induced increase in rate-pressure product. In other individuals with no underlying atherosclerotic obstruction, coronary occlusion may be due to spasm, thrombus, or both. With regard to spasm, the clinical findings are largely circumstantial, and the locus of cocaine-induced vasoconstriction remains speculative. Although certain clinical and experimental findings support the hypothesis that spasm involves the epicardial, medium-size vessels, other data suggest intramural vasoconstriction. Diffuse intramural vasoconstriction is not consistent with reports of segmental, discrete infarction. Whereas certain in vivo data suggest that these effects are alpha-mediated, other in vitro data suggest the opposite. The finding of cocaine-induced vasoconstriction in segments of (noninnervated) human umbilical artery suggests that the presence or absence of intact innervation is not sufficient to explain the discrepant data involving the possibility of alpha-mediated effects. Finally, the contribution of a primary, thrombotic effect of cocaine has not been excluded.","[{'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 188, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'acute myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'acute myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 312, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 382, 'end': 388, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 412, 'end': 419, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'atherosclerotic obstruction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 503, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'coronary occlusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 532, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D054059'}, {'text': 'spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 565, 'end': 570, 'mesh': 'D013035'}, {'text': 'thrombus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 572, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 606, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'D013035'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 814, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'D013035'}, {'text': 'infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D007238'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1156, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +90,1786266,"Rabbit syndrome, antidepressant use, and cerebral perfusion SPECT scan findings.","The rabbit syndrome is an extrapyramidal side effect associated with chronic neuroleptic therapy.

Renal structure and concentrating ability were examined after a recovery period of up to 18 weeks, when no analgesics were given, to investigate whether the analgesic-induced changes were reversible. There was no evidence of repair to the damaged medullary interstitial matrix, or proliferation of remaining undamaged type 1 medullary interstitial cells after the recovery period following analgesic treatment. The recovery of urinary concentrating ability was related to the length of analgesic treatment and the extent of the resulting inner medullary structural damage. During the early stages of analgesic treatment, the changes in urinary concentrating ability were reversible, but after prolonged analgesic treatment, maximum urinary concentrating ability failed to recover. This study shows that prolonged analgesic treatment in Fischer 344 rats causes progressive and irreversible damage to the interstitial matrix and type 1 interstitial cells leading to RPN.

Patients were admitted to the hospital for measurement of lithium level, creatinine clearance, urine volume, and maximum osmolality. RESULTS: Multiple daily doses of lithium were associated with higher urine volumes. The dosing schedule, duration of lithium treatment, and daily dose of lithium did not affect maximum osmolality or creatinine clearance.

The authors suggest that fluoxetine-induced akathisia may be caused by serotonergically mediated inhibition of dopaminergic neurotransmission and that the pathophysiology of fluoxetine-induced akathisia and tricyclic antidepressant-induced ""jitteriness"" may be identical.","[{'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 93, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'obsessive compulsive disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'major depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D003865'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 218, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 325, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 390, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 465, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 508, 'end': 518, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 527, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'Akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 579, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 717, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 780, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 799, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 929, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 948, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D000928'}]" +98,2611118,Chronic active hepatitis associated with diclofenac sodium therapy.,"Diclofenac sodium (Voltarol, Geigy Pharmaceuticals) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory derivative of phenylacetic acid.

Mean arterial pressure was decreased to 50 mm Hg for 30 minutes either by hemorrhage (HEM, n = 7) or by continuous infusion of sodium nitroprusside (SNP, n = 7). During HEM-induced hypotension the cardiac output was significantly lower and systemic vascular resistance higher compared with that in the SNP group. The systemic, central venous, pulmonary capillary wedge pressures, and heart rates, were similar in the two groups. Analysis of the respiratory changes in the arterial pressure waveform enabled differentiation between the two groups. The SPV during hypotension was 15.7 +/- 6.7 mm Hg in the HEM group, compared with 9.1 +/- 2.0 mm Hg in the SNP group (P less than 0.02). The delta down, which is the measure of decrease of SBP after a mechanical breath, was 20.3 +/- 8.4 and 10.1 +/- 3.8 mm Hg in the HEM and SNP groups, respectively, during hypotension (P less than 0.02). It is concluded that increases in the SPV and the delta down are characteristic of a hypotensive state due to a predominant decrease in preload. They are thus more important during absolute hypovolemia than during deliberate hypotension.","[{'text': 'hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 46, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'sodium nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 69, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 98, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 349, 'end': 360, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 436, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'HEM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 448, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'sodium nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 489, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 511, 'end': 514, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'HEM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 531, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 543, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 664, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'HEM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 966, 'end': 969, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'HEM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1184, 'end': 1187, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1217, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1345, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hypovolemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1439, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'D020896'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1485, 'mesh': 'D007022'}]" +102,3564823,Drug-induced arterial spasm relieved by lidocaine.

Control rats received halothane anesthesia (1 MAC) for one hour, followed by SNP infusion, 40 microgram/kg/min, for 30 min, followed by a 30-min recovery period. A second group of rats was treated identically and, in addition, received an infusion of saralasin (a competitive inhibitor of angiotensin II) throughout the experimental period. In each group, SNP infusion resulted in an initial decrease in blood pressure from 86 torr and 83 torr, respectively, to 48 torr. During the SNP infusion the control animals demonstrated a progressive increase in blood pressure to 61 torr, whereas the saralasin-treated animals showed no change. Following discontinuation of SNP, blood pressure in the control animals rebounded to 94 torr, as compared with 78 torr in the saralasin-treated rats. This study indicates that with stable halothane anesthesia, the partial recovery of blood pressure during SNP infusion and the post-SNP rebound of blood pressure can be completely blocked by saralasin. This demonstrates the participation of the renin--angiotensin system in antagonizing the combined hypotensive effects of halothane and SNP.","[{'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 8, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'sodium nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'saralasin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 61, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D012504'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'sodium nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 191, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 213, 'end': 216, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 330, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'saralasin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 504, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D012504'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 542, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 609, 'end': 612, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'increase in blood pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 795, 'end': 821, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'saralasin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 846, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'D012504'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 919, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'saralasin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D012504'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1146, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1172, 'end': 1175, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'saralasin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1240, 'mesh': 'D012504'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1292, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1351, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1363, 'end': 1372, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'SNP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1377, 'end': 1380, 'mesh': 'D009599'}]" +112,7504976,Toxic hepatitis induced by antithyroid drugs: four cases including one with cross-reactivity between carbimazole and benzylthiouracil.,"OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to assess the occurrence of hepatic adverse effects encountered with antithyroid drugs. METHODS: Retrospective review of medical records of 236 patients with hyperthyroidism admitted in our department (in- or out-patients) from 1986 to 1992. RESULTS: Four patients (1.7%) were identified with toxic hepatitis which could reasonably be attributed to the use of antithyroid agent. Two patients had a cholestatic hepatitis induced by carbimazole (N omercazole). Two others had a mixed (cholestatic and cytolytic) hepatitis following carbimazole. One of the latter two patients further experienced a cytolytic hepatitis which appeared after Benzylthiouracil (Basd ne) had replaced carbimazole. Biological features of hepatitis disappeared in all cases after cessation of the incriminated drug, while biliary, viral and immunological searches were negative. Only 2 patients of our retrospective study experienced a mild or severe neutropenia. CONCLUSION: Toxic hepatitis is a potential adverse effect of antithyroid drugs which warrants, as for haematological disturbances, a pre-therapeutic determination and a careful follow-up of relevant biological markers.

Seventy-five human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with CD4+ cell counts < 500/mm3 were randomized to receive either ZDV (500 mg daily) alone (group I, n = 38) or in combination with folinic acid (15 mg daily) and intramascular vitamin B12 (1000 micrograms monthly) (group II, n = 37). Finally, 15 patients were excluded from the study (noncompliance 14, death 1); thus, 60 patients (31 in group I and 29 in group II) were eligible for analysis. No significant differences between groups were found at enrollment. During the study, vitamin B12 and folate levels were significantly higher in group II patients; however, no differences in hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, and white-cell, neutrophil and platelet counts were observed between groups at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Severe hematologic toxicity (neutrophil count < 1000/mm3 and/or hemoglobin < 8 g/dl) occurred in 4 patients assigned to group I and 7 assigned to group II. There was no correlation between vitamin B12 or folate levels and development of myelosuppression.

He developed acute neurologic symptoms of mental confusion, disorientation and irritability, and then lapsed into a deep coma, lasting for approximately 40 hours during the first dose (day 2) of 5-fluorouracil and folinic acid infusion. This complication reappeared on day 25 during the second dose of 5-fluorouracil and folinic acid, which were then the only drugs given. Because folinic acid was unlikely to be associated with this condition, neurotoxicity due to high-dose 5-fluorouracil was highly suspected. The pathogenesis of 5-fluorouracil neurotoxicity may be due to a Krebs cycle blockade by fluoroacetate and fluorocitrate, thiamine deficiency, or dihydrouracil dehydrogenase deficiency. High-dose 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid infusion therapy has recently become a popular regimen for various cancers. It is necessary that both oncologists and neurologists be fully aware of this unusual complication.","[{'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 6, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 51, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'cisplatinum', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 158, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 234, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'gastric adenocarcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 338, 'end': 347, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'disorientation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 349, 'end': 363, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'irritability', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 368, 'end': 380, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'coma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 410, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D003128'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 484, 'end': 498, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 503, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 591, 'end': 605, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 610, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 734, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 765, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 822, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 837, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'fluoroacetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 891, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D005463'}, {'text': 'fluorocitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 909, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'C007744'}, {'text': 'thiamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 924, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D013831'}, {'text': 'dihydrouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 948, 'end': 961, 'mesh': 'C007419'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 998, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1013, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1093, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D009369'}]" +115,7862923,Effect of switching carbamazepine to oxcarbazepine on the plasma levels of neuroleptics.

CASE SUMMARY: A 13-year-old boy was treated with ampicillin and gentamicin because of suspected septicemia. Medications were discontinued when erythema multiforme and congestive heart failure caused by myocarditis occurred. The patient was treated with methylprednisolone and gradually improved. Macrophage-migration inhibition (MIF) test with ampicillin was positive. DISCUSSION: After most infections causing erythema multiforme and myocarditis were ruled out, a drug-induced allergic reaction was suspected. Positive MIF test for ampicillin showed sensitization of the patient's lymphocytes to ampicillin.

A detailed clinical history, together with skin tests, RAST (radioallergosorbent test), and controlled challenge tests, was used to establish whether patients allergic to beta-lactam antibiotics had selective immediate allergic responses to amoxicillin (AX) or were cross-reacting with other penicillin derivatives. Skin tests were performed with benzylpenicilloyl-poly-L-lysine (BPO-PLL), benzylpenicilloate, benzylpenicillin (PG), ampicillin (AMP), and AX. RAST for BPO-PLL and AX-PLL was done. When both skin test and RAST for BPO were negative, single-blind, placebo-controlled challenge tests were done to ensure tolerance of PG or sensitivity to AX. A total of 177 patients were diagnosed as allergic to beta-lactam antibiotics. We selected the 54 (30.5%) cases of immediate AX allergy with good tolerance of PG. Anaphylaxis was seen in 37 patients (69%), the other 17 (31%) having urticaria and/or angioedema. All the patients were skin test negative to BPO; 49 of 51 (96%) were also negative to MDM, and 44 of 46 (96%) to PG. Skin tests with AX were positive in 34 (63%) patients. RAST was positive for AX in 22 patients (41%) and to BPO in just 5 (9%). None of the sera with negative RAST for AX were positive to BPO. Challenge tests with AX were performed in 23 subjects (43%) to establish the diagnosis of immediate allergic reaction to AX, and in 15 cases (28%) both skin test and RAST for AX were negative. PG was well tolerated by all 54 patients. We describe the largest group of AX-allergic patients who have tolerated PG reported so far. Diagnosis of these patients can be achieved only if specific AX-related reagents are employed. Further studies are necessary to determine the exact extent of this problem and to improve the efficacy of diagnostic methods.","[{'text': 'allergic reactions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 10, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'amoxicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'allergic reactions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 86, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'beta-lactam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 108, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D047090'}, {'text': 'allergic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 306, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'beta-lactam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 318, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D047090'}, {'text': 'allergic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 366, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'amoxicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 388, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 401, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'benzylpenicilloyl-poly-L-lysine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 525, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'BPO-PLL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 527, 'end': 534, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'benzylpenicilloate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 555, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'benzylpenicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 557, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 575, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'ampicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D000667'}, {'text': 'AMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D000667'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 602, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'BPO-PLL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 615, 'end': 622, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 627, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'BPO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 677, 'end': 680, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 778, 'end': 780, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'allergic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 845, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'beta-lactam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D047090'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 928, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'allergy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 931, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'Anaphylaxis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 966, 'end': 977, 'mesh': 'D000707'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1052, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D000799'}, {'text': 'BPO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1108, 'end': 1111, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'MDM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1150, 'end': 1153, 'mesh': 'D007645'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1258, 'end': 1260, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'BPO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1292, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1351, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'BPO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1369, 'end': 1372, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'allergic reaction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1495, 'end': 1497, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1549, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1567, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1642, 'end': 1644, 'mesh': 'D000658'}, {'text': 'allergic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1645, 'end': 1653, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1682, 'end': 1684, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'AX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1763, 'end': 1765, 'mesh': 'D000658'}]" +118,8638206,Persistent paralysis after prolonged use of atracurium in the absence of corticosteroids.,"Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) are often used for patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation.

As a result of these and other studies, phenacetin has now been withdrawn from the market in most countries. However, three case control studies, one each in North Carolina, northern Maryland, and West Berlin, Germany, showed that habitual use of acetaminophen is also associated with chronic renal failure and ESRD, with a relative risk in the range of 2 to 4. These studies suggest that both phenacetin and acetaminophen may contribute to the burden of ESRD, with the risk of the latter being somewhat less than that of the former. This apparent difference in risk may not be due to differences in nephrotoxic potential of the drugs themselves. A lower relative risk would be expected for acetaminophen if the risk of both drugs in combination with other analgesics was higher than the risk of either agent alone. Thus, acetaminophen has been used both as a single agent and in combination with other analgesics, whereas phenacetin was available only in combinations. The possibility that habitual use of acetaminophen alone increases the risk of ESRD has not been clearly demonstrated, but cannot be dismissed.","[{'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'chronic renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'phenacetin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D010615'}, {'text': 'phenacetin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D010615'}, {'text': 'chronic renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 241, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'end-stage renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 267, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 292, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'phenacetin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 385, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D010615'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 605, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'chronic renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 630, 'end': 651, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 656, 'end': 660, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'phenacetin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 739, 'end': 749, 'mesh': 'D010615'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 800, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 945, 'end': 956, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1180, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'phenacetin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1278, 'mesh': 'D010615'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1352, 'end': 1365, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1394, 'end': 1398, 'mesh': 'D007676'}]" +120,8690168,Reduction of heparan sulphate-associated anionic sites in the glomerular basement membrane of rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetic nephropathy.,"Heparan sulphate-associated anionic sites in the glomerular basement membrane were studied in rats 8 months after induction of diabetes by streptozotocin and in age- adn sex-matched control rats, employing the cationic dye cuprolinic blue. Morphometric analysis at the ultrastructural level was performed using a computerized image processor. The heparan sulphate specificity of the cuprolinic blue staining was demonstrated by glycosaminoglycan-degrading enzymes, showing that pretreatment of the sections with heparitinase abolished all staining, whereas chondroitinase ABC had no effect. The majority of anionic sites (74% in diabetic and 81% in control rats) were found within the lamina rara externa of the glomerular basement membrane. A minority of anionic sites were scattered throughout the lamina densa and lamina rara interna, and were significantly smaller than those in the lamina rara externa of the glomerular basement membrane (p<0.001 and p<0.01 for diabetic and control rats, respectively). Diabetic rats progressively developed albuminuria reaching 40.3 (32.2-62.0) mg/24 h after 8 months in contrast to the control animals (0.8 (0.2-0.9) mg/24 h, p<0.002).

Number and total anionic site surface in the remaining part of the glomerular basement membrane (lamina densa and lamina rara interna) were not significantly changed.

After drug administration, creatinine concentrations in the plasma and in the urine of the rats were determined, as well as creatinine clearance. Histopathologic evaluation of the kidneys was also performed. After MTX administration a significant increase (p = 0.0228) in the plasma creatinine concentration and a significant (p = 0.0001) decrease in creatinine clearance was noted compared to controls. After the administration of NG, 5-FU and CY neither a statistically significant increase in creatinine concentration nor an increase in creatinine clearance was observed compared to the group receiving no cytostatics. Following polytherapy according to the CMF regimen, a statistically significant decrease (p = 0.0343) in creatinine clearance was found, but creatinine concentration did not increase significantly compared to controls. CY caused hemorrhagic cystitis in 40% of rats, but it did not cause this complication when combined with 5-FU and MTX. Histologic changes were found in rat kidneys after administration of MTX, CY and NG, while no such change was observed after 5-FU and joint administration of MTX + 5-FU + CY compared to controls. Our studies indicate that nephrotoxicity of MTX + 5-FU + CY administered jointly is lower than in monotherapy.","[{'text': 'renal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 61, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nitrogranulogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 128, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D008466'}, {'text': 'NG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D008466'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 164, 'end': 167, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 170, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 196, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 214, 'end': 216, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 256, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 262, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 351, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 538, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 607, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 675, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'NG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 756, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D008466'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 769, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 864, 'end': 874, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1167, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1270, 'end': 1274, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1279, 'end': 1282, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1353, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1358, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'NG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1365, 'end': 1367, 'mesh': 'D008466'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1413, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1442, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1448, 'end': 1452, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1520, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1524, 'end': 1527, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1534, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1537, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D003520'}]" +122,8752018,Lithium-associated cognitive and functional deficits reduced by a switch to divalproex sodium: a case series.,"BACKGROUND: Lithium remains a first-line treatment for the acute and maintenance treatment of bipolar disorder. Although much has been written about the management of the more common adverse effects of lithium, such as polyuria and tremor, more subtle lithium side effects such as cognitive deficits, loss of creativity, and functional impairments remain understudied. This report summarizes our experience in switching bipolar patients from lithium to divalproex sodium to alleviate such cognitive and functional impairments. METHOD: Open, case series design. RESULTS: We report seven cases where substitution of lithium, either fully or partially, with divalproex sodium was extremely helpful in reducing the cognitive, motivational, or creative deficits attributed to lithium in our bipolar patients.

Combination chemotherapy with mitoxantrone, high-dose 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin (MFL regimen) had been reported as an effective and well tolerated regimen. From October 1993 to November 1995, we treated 13 patients with previously chemotherapy-treated metastatic breast cancer by mitoxantrone, 12 mg/m2, on day 1 and continuous infusion of 5-FU, 3000 mg/m2, together with leucovorin, 300 mg/m2, for 48 h from day 1 to 2. Each course of chemotherapy was given every 4 weeks. Most of these patients had more than two metastatic sites, with lung metastasis predominant. Seven patients had been treated with anthracycline. Seven patients had previously received radiotherapy and seven had received hormone therapy. Median number of courses of MFL regimen given was six and the median cumulative dose of mitoxantrone was 68.35 mg/m2. One patient had complete response, seven had stable disease, none had partial response and five had progressive disease. The overall objective response rate was 7.6%. The median follow-up period was 14 months. Median survival was 16 months. Median progression-free survival was 5 months. A complete responder had relapse-free survival up to 17 months. Major toxicities were cardiotoxicity and leukopenia. Eight patients were dead in the last follow-up; two of them died of treatment-related toxicity. The MFL regimen achieves little palliative benefit and induces severe toxicity at a fairly high rate. Administration of this regimen to breast cancer patients who have been treated by chemotherapy and those with impaired heart function requires careful attention.","[{'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 43, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'mitoxantrone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D008942'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 118, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'leucovorin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 127, 'end': 137, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'MFL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 142, 'mesh': 'C085788'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 195, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 237, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'mitoxantrone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D008942'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 362, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 364, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'leucovorin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 374, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'MFL regimen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 386, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'C085788'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 568, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'mitoxantrone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D008942'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 645, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'leucovorin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 677, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 909, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'MFL regimen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'C085788'}, {'text': 'mitoxantrone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1104, 'end': 1116, 'mesh': 'D008942'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1492, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1508, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'leukopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1527, 'end': 1537, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1633, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'MFL regimen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1639, 'end': 1650, 'mesh': 'C085788'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1705, 'end': 1713, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1784, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'impaired heart function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1847, 'end': 1870, 'mesh': 'D006331'}]" +124,9406968,Upregulation of the expression of vasopressin gene in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the lithium-induced diabetes insipidus rat.,"The expression of arginine vasopressin (AVP) gene in the paraventricular (PVN) and supraoptic nuclei (SON) was investigated in rats with lithium (Li)-induced polyuria, using in situ hybridization histochemistry and radioimmunoassay.

Plasma sodium concentrations were found to be slightly increased in the Li-treated rats compared with those in controls. Plasma concentration of AVP and transcripts of AVP gene in the PVN and SON were significantly increased in the Li-treated rats compared with controls.

METHODS: Twenty-six renal allograft biopsy specimens from 1 9 renal transplant patients who underwent transplantations between 1991 and 1993 were evaluated. Thirteen biopsies were performed from stable functioning renal allografts with informed consent (nonepisode biopsy) and the other 13 were from dysfunctional renal allografts with a clinical indication for biopsy (episode biopsy). RESULTS: The main pathologic diagnoses (some overlap) were acute rejection (AR; n = 4), chronic rejection (CR; n=5), AR+CR (n =4), recurrent IgA nephropathy (n =5), normal findings (n =2), minimal-type chronic FK506 nephropathy (n = 9), and mild-type FK506 nephropathy (n = 11). Of the nonepisode biopsies, 7 and 4 biopsies showed minimal-type and mild-type chronic FK506 nephropathy, respectively. Chronic FK506 nephropathy consisted of rough and foamy tubular vacuolization (5 biopsies), arteriolopathy (angiodegeneration of the arteriolar wall; 20 biopsies), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (4 biopsies) and the striped form of interstitial fibrosis (11 biopsies). The serum creatinine levels of patients in the mild-type chronic FK506 nephropathy group, which included 7 episode biopsies, were statistically higher than those in the minimum-type chronic FK506-nephropathy group (P< 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that chronic FK506 nephropathy consists primarily of arteriolopathy manifesting as insudative hyalinosis of the arteriolar wall, and suggests that mild-type chronic FK506 nephropathy is a condition which may lead to deterioration of renal allograft function.","[{'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 235, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 247, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'IgA nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'D005922'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 873, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 879, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 914, 'end': 919, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1029, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1070, 'end': 1075, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'focal segmental glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1225, 'end': 1259, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'interstitial fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1354, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1399, 'end': 1404, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1524, 'end': 1529, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1610, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1616, 'end': 1627, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1762, 'end': 1767, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1768, 'end': 1779, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +128,9869257,Memory facilitation and stimulation of endogenous nerve growth factor synthesis by the acetylcholine releaser PG-9.,"The effects of PG-9 (3alpha-tropyl 2-(p-bromophenyl)propionate), the acetylcholine releaser, on memory processes and nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis were evaluated. In the mouse passive-avoidance test, PG-9 (10-30 mg/kg, i.p.), administered 20 min before the training session, prevented amnesia induced by both the non selective antimuscarinic drug scopolamine and the M1-selective antagonist S-(-)-ET-126. In the same experimental conditions, PG-9 (5-20 microg per mouse, i.c.v.) was also able to prevent antimuscarine-induced amnesia, demonstrating a central localization of the activity. At the highest effective doses, PG-9 did not produce any collateral symptoms as revealed by the Irwin test, and it did not modify spontaneous motility and inspection activity, as revealed by the hole-board test. PG-9 was also able to increase the amount of NGF secreted in vitro by astrocytes in a dose-dependent manner. The maximal NGF contents obtained by PG-9 were 17.6-fold of the control value. During culture, no morphological changes were found at effective concentrations of PG-9. The current work indicates the ability of PG-9 to induce beneficial effects on cognitive processes and stimulate activity of NGF synthesis in astroglial cells. Therefore, PG-9 could represent a potential useful drug able to improve the function of impaired cognitive processes.","[{'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 110, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': '3alpha-tropyl 2-(p-bromophenyl)propionate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 137, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 322, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 407, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'S-(-)-ET-126', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'C098725'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 564, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 648, 'end': 655, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1073, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1194, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1242, 'end': 1246, 'mesh': 'C087567'}, {'text': 'PG-9', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1371, 'end': 1375, 'mesh': 'C087567'}]" +129,10342929,Angioedema due to ACE inhibitors: common and inadequately diagnosed.,The estimated incidence of angioedema during angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor treatment is between 1 and 7 per thousand patients.

Data from a Transnational case-control study were used to assess the risk of VTE for the latter patterns of use, while accounting for duration of use. Over the period 1993-1996, 551 cases of VTE were identified in Germany and the UK along with 2066 controls. Totals of 128 cases and 650 controls were analysed for repeat use and 135 cases and 622 controls for switching patterns. The adjusted rate ratio of VTE for repeat users of third generation OC was 0.6 (95% CI:0.3-1.2) relative to repeat users of second generation pills, whereas it was 1.3 (95% CI:0.7-2.4) for switchers from second to third generation pills relative to switchers from third to second generation pills. We conclude that second and third generation agents are associated with equivalent risks of VTE when the same agent is used repeatedly after interruption periods or when users are switched between the two generations of pills. These analyses suggest that the higher risk observed for the newer OC in other studies may be the result of inadequate comparisons of pill users with different patterns of pill use.","[{'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 59, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 137, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 161, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 188, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 209, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 388, 'end': 391, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 502, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 718, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 759, 'end': 761, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1283, 'end': 1285, 'mesh': 'D003276'}]" +132,10791295,Development of apomorphine-induced aggressive behavior: comparison of adult male and female Wistar rats.,"The development of apomorphine-induced (1.0 mg/kg s.c. once daily) aggressive behavior of adult male and female Wistar rats obtained from the same breeder was studied in two consecutive sets.

Although such an association is of practical and theoretical importance, only one prospective study has tried to confirm it. METHODS: We examined 278 consecutive renal specimens (from 135 transplants and 143 native kidneys) for ultrastructural evidence of PTCR. In addition to renal allografts with TG, we also examined grafts with acute rejection, recurrent glomerulonephritis, chronic allograft nephropathy and stable grafts (""protocol biopsies""). Native kidney specimens included a wide range of glomerulopathies as well as cases of thrombotic microangiopathy, malignant hypertension, acute interstitial nephritis, and acute tubular necrosis. RESULTS: We found PTCR in 14 of 15 cases of TG, in 7 transplant biopsy specimens without TG, and in 13 of 143 native kidney biopsy specimens. These 13 included cases of malignant hypertension, thrombotic microangiopathy, lupus nephritis, Henoch-Schonlein nephritis, crescentic glomerulonephritis, and cocaine-related acute renal failure. Mild PTCR in allografts without TG did not predict renal failure or significant proteinuria after follow-up periods of between 3 months and 1 year. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that in transplants, there is a strong association between well-developed PTCR and TG, while the significance of mild PTCR and its predictive value in the absence of TG is unclear. PTCR also occurs in certain native kidney diseases, though the association is not as strong as that for TG. We suggest that repeated endothelial injury, including immunologic injury, may be the cause of this lesion both in allografts and native kidneys.","[{'text': 'kidney disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 79, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'transplant glomerulopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 207, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 234, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 607, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 667, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'chronic allograft nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 687, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D051436'}, {'text': 'glomerulopathies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 807, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 844, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'malignant hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 872, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D006974'}, {'text': 'interstitial nephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 902, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'D009395'}, {'text': 'acute tubular necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 930, 'end': 952, 'mesh': 'D007683'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 998, 'end': 1000, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1045, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'malignant hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1123, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D006974'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'lupus nephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1175, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D008181'}, {'text': 'Henoch-Schonlein nephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1192, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D011695'}, {'text': 'glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1372, 'end': 1383, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1550, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1633, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'kidney diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1681, 'end': 1696, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'TG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1750, 'end': 1752, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'endothelial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1779, 'end': 1797, 'mesh': 'D014947'}, {'text': 'immunologic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1809, 'end': 1827, 'mesh': 'D007154'}]" +136,11426838,Conformationally restricted analogs of BD1008 and an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide targeting sigma1 receptors produce anti-cocaine effects in mice.,"Cocaine's ability to interact with sigma receptors suggests that these proteins mediate some of its behavioral effects. Therefore, three novel sigma receptor ligands with antagonist activity were evaluated in Swiss Webster mice: BD1018 (3S-1-[2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-1,4-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane), BD1063 (1-[2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-4-methylpiperazine), and LR132 (1R,2S-(+)-cis-N-[2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)cyclohexylamine). Competition binding assays demonstrated that all three compounds have high affinities for sigma1 receptors. The three compounds vary in their affinities for sigma2 receptors and exhibit negligible affinities for dopamine, opioid, GABA(A) and NMDA receptors. In behavioral studies, pre-treatment of mice with BD1018, BD1063, or LR132 significantly attenuated cocaine-induced convulsions and lethality. Moreover, post-treatment with LR132 prevented cocaine-induced lethality in a significant proportion of animals. In contrast to the protection provided by the putative antagonists, the well-characterized sigma receptor agonist di-o-tolylguanidine (DTG) and the novel sigma receptor agonist BD1031 (3R-1-[2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-1,4-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane) each worsened the behavioral toxicity of cocaine. At doses where alone, they produced no significant effects on locomotion, BD1018, BD1063 and LR132 significantly attenuated the locomotor stimulatory effects of cocaine. To further validate the hypothesis that the anti-cocaine effects of the novel ligands involved antagonism of sigma receptors, an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide against sigma1 receptors was also shown to significantly attenuate the convulsive and locomotor stimulatory effects of cocaine. Together, the data suggests that functional antagonism of sigma receptors is capable of attenuating a number of cocaine-induced behaviors.","[{'text': 'BD1008', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'C085527'}, {'text': 'oligodeoxynucleotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D009838'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 124, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'BD1018', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 384, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': '3S-1-[2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-1,4-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 386, 'end': 450, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'BD1063', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 453, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'C093337'}, {'text': '1-[2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-4-methylpiperazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 511, 'mesh': 'C093337'}, {'text': 'LR132', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 518, 'end': 523, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 819, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 837, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'BD1018', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 915, 'end': 921, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'BD1063', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'C093337'}, {'text': 'LR132', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 934, 'end': 939, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 965, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 981, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'LR132', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1043, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1054, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'di-o-tolylguanidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'C050232'}, {'text': 'DTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1258, 'mesh': 'C050232'}, {'text': 'BD1031', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': '3R-1-[2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]-1,4-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1305, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1400, 'end': 1408, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1412, 'end': 1419, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'BD1018', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1495, 'end': 1501, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'BD1063', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1503, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'C093337'}, {'text': 'LR132', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1514, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1582, 'end': 1589, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1640, 'end': 1647, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'oligodeoxynucleotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1730, 'end': 1750, 'mesh': 'D009838'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1822, 'end': 1832, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1870, 'end': 1877, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1991, 'end': 1998, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +137,11569530,"Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic assessment of the effects of E4031, cisapride, terfenadine and terodiline on monophasic action potential duration in dog.","1. Torsades de pointes (TDP) is a potentially fatal ventricular tachycardia associated with increases in QT interval and monophasic action potential duration (MAPD). TDP is a side-effect that has led to withdrawal of several drugs from the market (e.g. terfenadine and terodiline). 2. The potential of compounds to cause TDP was evaluated by monitoring their effects on MAPD in dog. Four compounds known to increase QT interval and cause TDP were investigated: terfenadine, terodiline, cisapride and E4031. On the basis that only free drug in the systemic circulation will elicit a pharmacological response target, free concentrations in plasma were selected to mimic the free drug exposures in man. Infusion regimens were designed that rapidly achieved and maintained target-free concentrations of these drugs in plasma and data on the relationship between free concentration and changes in MAPD were obtained for these compounds. 3. These data indicate that the free ED50 in plasma for terfenadine (1.9 nM), terodiline (76 nM), cisapride (11 nM) and E4031 (1.9 nM) closely correlate with the free concentration in man causing QT effects. For compounds that have shown TDP in the clinic (terfenadine, terodiline, cisapride) there is little differentiation between the dog ED50 and the efficacious free plasma concentrations in man (< 10-fold) reflecting their limited safety margins. These data underline the need to maximize the therapeutic ratio with respect to TDP in potential development candidates and the importance of using free drug concentrations in pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic studies.","[{'text': 'E4031', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 61, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'C063968'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'terfenadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D016593'}, {'text': 'terodiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 95, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'C010637'}, {'text': 'Torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 157, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'TDP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 178, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 206, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'TDP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 320, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'terfenadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 407, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D016593'}, {'text': 'terodiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 423, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'C010637'}, {'text': 'TDP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'TDP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 592, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'terfenadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 615, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D016593'}, {'text': 'terodiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'C010637'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 640, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'E4031', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 654, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'C063968'}, {'text': 'terfenadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1153, 'mesh': 'D016593'}, {'text': 'terodiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1174, 'mesh': 'C010637'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1184, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'E4031', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1211, 'mesh': 'C063968'}, {'text': 'TDP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'terfenadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1354, 'mesh': 'D016593'}, {'text': 'terodiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'C010637'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'TDP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1619, 'end': 1622, 'mesh': 'D016171'}]" +138,11587867,Fatal myeloencephalopathy due to accidental intrathecal vincristin administration: a report of two cases.,"We report on two fatal cases of accidental intrathecal vincristine instillation in a 5-year old girl with recurrent acute lymphoblastic leucemia and a 57-year old man with lymphoblastic lymphoma.

METHODS: We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind study in the emergency department of a central-city teaching hospital. Patients aged 18 years or older treated with prochlorperazine for headache, nausea, or vomiting were eligible for inclusion. Study participants were randomized to receive 10 mg of prochlorperazine administered intravenously by means of 2-minute push (bolus group) or 10 mg diluted in 50 mL of normal saline solution administered by means of intravenous infusion during a 15-minute period (infusion group). The main outcome was the number of study participants experiencing akathisia within 60 minutes of administration. Akathisia was defined as either a spontaneous report of restlessness or agitation or a change of 2 or more in the patient-reported akathisia rating scale and a change of at least 1 in the investigator-observed akathisia rating scale. The intensity of headache and nausea was measured with a 100-mm visual analog scale. RESULTS: One hundred patients were enrolled. One study participant was excluded after protocol violation. Seventy-three percent (73/99) of the study participants were treated for headache and 70% (70/99) for nausea. In the bolus group, 26.0% (13/50) had akathisia compared with 32.7% (16/49) in the infusion group (Delta=-6.7%; 95% confidence interval [CI] -24.6% to 11.2%). The difference between the bolus and infusion groups in the percentage of participants who saw a 50% reduction in their headache intensity within 30 minutes was 11.8% (95% CI -9.6% to 33.3%). The difference in the percentage of patients with a 50% reduction in their nausea was 12.6% (95% CI -4.6% to 29.8%). CONCLUSION: A 50% reduction in the incidence of akathisia when prochlorperazine was administered by means of 15-minute intravenous infusion versus a 2-minute intravenous push was not detected.

Thus, the relationship between cholinergic activity and responsiveness and alcohol withdrawal was investigated in a genetic animal model of ethanol withdrawal severity. METHODS: Cholinergic convulsant sensitivity was examined in alcohol-na ve Withdrawal Seizure-Prone (WSP) and-Resistant (WSR) mice. Animals were administered nicotine, carbachol, or neostigmine via timed tail vein infusion, and the latencies to onset of tremor and clonus were recorded and converted to threshold dose. We also used microdialysis to measure basal and potassium-stimulated acetylcholine (ACh) release in the CA1 region of the hippocampus. Potassium was applied by reverse dialysis twice, separated by 75 min. Hippocampal ACh also was measured during testing for handling-induced convulsions. RESULTS: Sensitivity to several convulsion endpoints induced by nicotine, carbachol, and neostigmine were significantly greater in WSR versus WSP mice. In microdialysis experiments, the lines did not differ in basal release of ACh, and 50 mM KCl increased ACh output in both lines of mice. However, the increase in release of ACh produced by the first application of KCl was 2-fold higher in WSP versus WSR mice. When hippocampal ACh was measured during testing for handling-induced convulsions, extracellular ACh was significantly elevated (192%) in WSP mice, but was nonsignificantly elevated (59%) in WSR mice. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that differences in cholinergic activity and postsynaptic sensitivity to cholinergic convulsants may be associated with ethanol withdrawal severity and implicate cholinergic mechanisms in alcohol withdrawal. Specifically, WSP mice may have lower sensitivity to cholinergic convulsants compared with WSR because of postsynaptic receptor desensitization brought on by higher activity of cholinergic neurons.","[{'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 112, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 402, 'end': 409, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 506, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 571, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'Seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 686, 'end': 693, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 758, 'end': 766, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 768, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'neostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 854, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 967, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1003, 'end': 1006, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'Potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1054, 'end': 1063, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1194, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1239, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1281, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'neostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1307, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1434, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'KCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1449, 'end': 1452, 'mesh': 'C522374'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1463, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1536, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'KCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1577, 'mesh': 'C522374'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1637, 'end': 1640, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1690, 'end': 1701, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1717, 'end': 1720, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'convulsants', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1941, 'end': 1952, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1976, 'end': 1983, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2044, 'end': 2051, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'convulsants', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2129, 'end': 2140, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +142,12574103,Prenatal dexamethasone programs hypertension and renal injury in the rat.,"Dexamethasone is frequently administered to the developing fetus to accelerate pulmonary development. The purpose of the present study was to determine if prenatal dexamethasone programmed a progressive increase in blood pressure and renal injury in rats. Pregnant rats were given either vehicle or 2 daily intraperitoneal injections of dexamethasone (0.2 mg/kg body weight) on gestational days 11 and 12, 13 and 14, 15 and 16, 17 and 18, or 19 and 20. Offspring of rats administered dexamethasone on days 15 and 16 gestation had a 20% reduction in glomerular number compared with control at 6 to 9 months of age (22 527+/-509 versus 28 050+/-561, P<0.05), which was comparable to the percent reduction in glomeruli measured at 3 weeks of age. Six- to 9-month old rats receiving prenatal dexamethasone on days 17 and 18 of gestation had a 17% reduction in glomeruli (23 380+/-587) compared with control rats (P<0.05). Male rats that received prenatal dexamethasone on days 15 and 16, 17 and 18, and 13 and 14 of gestation had elevated blood pressures at 6 months of age; the latter group did not have a reduction in glomerular number. Adult rats given dexamethasone on days 15 and 16 of gestation had more glomeruli with glomerulosclerosis than control rats. This study shows that prenatal dexamethasone in rats results in a reduction in glomerular number, glomerulosclerosis, and hypertension when administered at specific points during gestation. Hypertension was observed in animals that had a reduction in glomeruli as well as in a group that did not have a reduction in glomerular number, suggesting that a reduction in glomerular number is not the sole cause for the development of hypertension.","[{'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 9, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 238, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'increase in blood pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 277, 'end': 303, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 308, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 411, 'end': 424, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 558, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'reduction in glomerular number', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 610, 'end': 640, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 862, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1025, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'elevated blood pressures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'reduction in glomerular number', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1207, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1239, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1364, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'reduction in glomerular number', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1399, 'end': 1429, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1431, 'end': 1449, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1467, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1523, 'end': 1535, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'reduction in glomerular number', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1636, 'end': 1666, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'reduction in glomerular number', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1686, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1762, 'end': 1774, 'mesh': 'D006973'}]" +143,12615818,The risk of venous thromboembolism in women prescribed cyproterone acetate in combination with ethinyl estradiol: a nested cohort analysis and case-control study.,"BACKGROUND: Cyproterone acetate combined with ethinyl estradiol (CPA/EE) is licensed in the UK for the treatment of women with acne and hirsutism and is also a treatment option for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Previous studies have demonstrated an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) associated with CPA/EE compared with conventional combined oral contraceptives (COCs). We believe the results of those studies may have been affected by residual confounding. METHODS: Using the General Practice Research Database we conducted a cohort analysis and case-control study nested within a population of women aged between 15 and 39 years with acne, hirsutism or PCOS to estimate the risk of VTE associated with CPA/EE. RESULTS: The age-adjusted incidence rate ratio for CPA/EE versus conventional COCs was 2.20 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.35-3.58]. Using as the reference group women who were not using oral contraception, had no recent pregnancy or menopausal symptoms, the case-control analysis gave an adjusted odds ratio (OR(adj)) of 7.44 (95% CI 3.67-15.08) for CPA/EE use compared with an OR(adj) of 2.58 (95% CI 1.60-4.18) for use of conventional COCs. CONCLUSIONS: We have demonstrated an increased risk of VTE associated with the use of CPA/EE in women with acne, hirsutism or PCOS although residual confounding by indication cannot be excluded.","[{'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'cyproterone acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 95, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'Cyproterone acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 175, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 209, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 228, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 232, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'acne', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 290, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D000152'}, {'text': 'hirsutism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 299, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D006628'}, {'text': 'polycystic ovary syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 344, 'end': 369, 'mesh': 'D011085'}, {'text': 'PCOS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 371, 'end': 375, 'mesh': 'D011085'}, {'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 434, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 458, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 483, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 522, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'acne', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 816, 'end': 820, 'mesh': 'D000152'}, {'text': 'hirsutism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 822, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D006628'}, {'text': 'PCOS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 835, 'end': 839, 'mesh': 'D011085'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 864, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 884, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 888, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 943, 'end': 946, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 947, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1244, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1248, 'end': 1250, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1392, 'end': 1395, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1426, 'mesh': 'D017373'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1427, 'end': 1429, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'acne', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D000152'}, {'text': 'hirsutism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1459, 'mesh': 'D006628'}, {'text': 'PCOS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1463, 'end': 1467, 'mesh': 'D011085'}]" +144,12789195,Pseudoacromegaly induced by the long-term use of minoxidil.,"Acromegaly is an endocrine disorder caused by chronic excessive growth hormone secretion from the anterior pituitary gland.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: Forty-two patients with biopsy-proven prostatic adenocarcinoma [26 with stage C (T3N0M0) and 16 with stage D1 (T3N1M0)] were included in this study. All patients received CAB [leuprolide acetate (LHRH-A) 3.75 mg, intramuscularly, every 28 days plus 250 mg flutamide, tid, per Os] and were evaluated for anemia by physical examination and laboratory tests at baseline and 4 subsequent intervals (1, 2, 3 and 6 months post-CAB). Hb, PSA and Testosterone measurements were recorded. Patients with stage D2-3 disease, abnormal hemoglobin level or renal and liver function tests that were higher than the upper limits were excluded from the study. The duration of the study was six months. RESULTS: The mean hemoglobin (Hb) levels were significantly declined in all patients from baseline of 14.2 g/dl to 14.0 g/dl, 13.5 g/dl, 13.2 g/dl and 12.7 g/dl at 1, 2, 3 and 6 months post-CAB, respectively. Severe and clinically evident anemia of Hb < 11 g/dl with clinical symptoms was detected in 6 patients (14.3%). This CAB-induced anemia was normochromic and normocytic. At six months post-CAB, patients with severe anemia had a Hb mean value of 10.2 +/- 0.1 g/dl (X +/- SE), whereas the other patients had mild anemia with Hb mean value of 13.2 +/- 0.17 (X +/- SE). The development of severe anemia at 6 months post-CAB was predictable by the reduction of Hb baseline value of more than 2.5 g/dl after 3 months of CAB (p = 0.01). The development of severe CAB-induced anemia in prostate cancer patients did not correlate with T baseline values (T < 3 ng/ml versus T > or = 3 ng/ml), with age (< 76 yrs versus > or = 76 yrs), and clinical stage (stage C versus stage D1). Severe and clinically evident anemia was easily corrected by subcutaneous injections (3 times/week for 1 month) of recombinant erythropoietin (rHuEPO-beta). CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that rHuEPO-beta correctable CAB-induced anemia occurs in 14.3% of prostate cancer patients after 6 months of therapy.","[{'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 35, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 196, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'prostatic adenocarcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 307, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D000230'}, {'text': 'leuprolide acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 445, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'D016729'}, {'text': 'LHRH-A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 465, 'end': 471, 'mesh': 'D016729'}, {'text': 'flutamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 525, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D005485'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 572, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'Testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 708, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1193, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1292, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1377, 'end': 1383, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1473, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1554, 'end': 1560, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1730, 'end': 1736, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1740, 'end': 1755, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1963, 'end': 1969, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2160, 'end': 2166, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2186, 'end': 2201, 'mesh': 'D011471'}]" +146,14657095,Reversible dilated cardiomyopathy related to amphotericin B therapy.,We describe a patient who developed dilated cardiomyopathy and clinical congestive heart failure after 2 months of therapy with amphotericin B (AmB) for disseminated coccidioidomycosis.

The rats received AChE reactivator pralidoxime-2-chloride (2PAM) (30.0 mg/kg BW), anticonvulsant diazepam (2.0 mg/kg BW), A(1)-adenosine receptor agonist N(6)-cyclopentyl adenosine (CPA) (2.0 mg/kg BW), NMDA-receptor antagonist dizocilpine maleate (+-MK801 hydrogen maleate) (2.0 mg/kg BW) or their combinations with cholinolytic drug atropine sulfate (50.0 mg/kg BW) immediately or 30 min after the single SC injection of DFP. The control rats received atropine sulfate, but also saline and olive oil instead of other antidotes and DFP, respectively. All rats were terminated either 24 h or 3 weeks after the DFP injection. The rats treated with DFP-atropine showed severe typical OP-induced toxicity signs. When CPA, diazepam or 2PAM was given immediately after DFP-atropine, these treatments prevented, delayed or shortened the occurrence of serious signs of poisoning. Atropine-MK801 did not offer any additional protection against DFP toxicity. In conclusion, CPA, diazepam and 2PAM in combination with atropine prevented the occurrence of serious signs of poisoning and thus reduced the toxicity of DFP in rat.","[{'text': 'Organophosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 24, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neuropathological damages', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 54, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D004194'}, {'text': 'organophosphorus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'OP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 104, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'diisopropylfluorophosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 121, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'sarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 155, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D012524'}, {'text': 'soman', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 165, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D012999'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 272, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'OPs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 284, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 395, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 410, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'pralidoxime-2-chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 635, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D011220'}, {'text': '2PAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 659, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D011220'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 697, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 727, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'N(6)-cyclopentyl adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 780, 'mesh': 'C048599'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'C048599'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 803, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'dizocilpine maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 828, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'atropine sulfate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 935, 'end': 951, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1023, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'atropine sulfate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1054, 'end': 1070, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1136, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1250, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1251, 'end': 1259, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'OP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1314, 'end': 1317, 'mesh': 'C048599'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': '2PAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1331, 'end': 1335, 'mesh': 'D011220'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1364, 'end': 1367, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1376, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1462, 'end': 1471, 'mesh': 'D011041'}, {'text': 'Atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1473, 'end': 1481, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'MK801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1482, 'end': 1487, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D007531'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1540, 'end': 1548, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1565, 'end': 1568, 'mesh': 'C048599'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1570, 'end': 1578, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': '2PAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1583, 'end': 1587, 'mesh': 'D011220'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1608, 'end': 1616, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1662, 'end': 1671, 'mesh': 'D011041'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1693, 'end': 1701, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'DFP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1705, 'end': 1708, 'mesh': 'D007531'}]" +149,15145918,Differential modulation by estrogen of alpha2-adrenergic and I1-imidazoline receptor-mediated hypotension in female rats.,"We have recently shown that estrogen negatively modulates the hypotensive effect of clonidine (mixed alpha2-/I1-receptor agonist) in female rats and implicates the cardiovascular autonomic control in this interaction. The present study investigated whether this effect of estrogen involves interaction with alpha2- and/or I1-receptors. Changes evoked by a single intraperitoneal injection of rilmenidine (600 microg/kg) or alpha-methyldopa (100 mg/kg), selective I1- and alpha2-receptor agonists, respectively, in blood pressure, hemodynamic variability, and locomotor activity were assessed in radiotelemetered sham-operated and ovariectomized (Ovx) Sprague-Dawley female rats with or without 12-wk estrogen replacement. Three time domain indexes of hemodynamic variability were employed: the standard deviation of mean arterial pressure as a measure of blood pressure variability and the standard deviation of beat-to-beat intervals (SDRR) and the root mean square of successive differences in R-wave-to-R-wave intervals as measures of heart rate variability. In sham-operated rats, rilmenidine or alpha-methyldopa elicited similar hypotension that lasted at least 5 h and was associated with reductions in standard deviation of mean arterial pressure. SDRR was reduced only by alpha-methyldopa. Ovx significantly enhanced the hypotensive response to alpha-methyldopa, in contrast to no effect on rilmenidine hypotension. The enhanced alpha-methyldopa hypotension in Ovx rats was paralleled with further reduction in SDRR and a reduced locomotor activity. Estrogen replacement (17beta-estradiol subcutaneous pellet, 14.2 microg/day, 12 wk) of Ovx rats restored the hemodynamic and locomotor effects of alpha-methyldopa to sham-operated levels. These findings suggest that estrogen downregulates alpha2- but not I1-receptor-mediated hypotension and highlight a role for the cardiac autonomic control in alpha-methyldopa-estrogen interaction.","[{'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'imidazoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 64, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D048288'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 94, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 184, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 206, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 402, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'rilmenidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'C032302'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 822, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'rilmenidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'C032302'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1222, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1256, 'end': 1267, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1402, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'rilmenidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1521, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'C032302'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1544, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1559, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1576, 'end': 1587, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'a reduced locomotor activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1650, 'end': 1678, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': '17beta-estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1702, 'end': 1718, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1826, 'end': 1842, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1896, 'end': 1904, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1956, 'end': 1967, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2026, 'end': 2042, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2043, 'end': 2051, 'mesh': 'D004967'}]" +150,15233872,Cardioprotective effect of tincture of Crataegus on isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction in rats.,"Tincture of Crataegus (TCR), an alcoholic extract of the berries of hawthorn (Crataegus oxycantha), is used in herbal and homeopathic medicine. The present study was done to investigate the protective effect of TCR on experimentally induced myocardial infarction in rats.

TCR prevented the isoproterenol-induced decrease in antioxidant enzymes in the heart and increased the rate of ADP-stimulated oxygen uptake and respiratory coupling ratio. TCR protected against pathological changes induced by isoproterenol in rat heart.

METHODS: The Multiple Outcomes of Raloxifene Evaluation, a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial, enrolled 7,705 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Women were randomly assigned to raloxifene 60 mg/d or 120 mg/d or placebo. Outcomes included venous thromboembolism, cataracts, gallbladder disease, and endometrial hyperplasia or cancer. RESULTS: During a mean follow-up of 3.3 years, raloxifene was associated with an increased risk for venous thromboembolism (relative risk [RR] 2.1; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.2-3.8). The excess event rate was 1.8 per 1,000 woman-years (95% CI -0.5-4.1), and the number needed to treat to cause 1 event was 170 (95% CI 100-582) over 3.3 years. Risk in the raloxifene group was higher than in the placebo group for the first 2 years, but decreased to about the same rate as in the placebo group thereafter. Raloxifene did not increase risk for cataracts (RR 0.9; 95% CI 0.8-1.1), gallbladder disease (RR 1.0; 95% CI 0.7-1.3), endometrial hyperplasia (RR 1.3; 95% CI 0.4-5.1), or endometrial cancer (RR 0.9; 95% CI 0.3-2.7). CONCLUSION: Raloxifene was associated with an increased risk for venous thromboembolism, but there was no increased risk for cataracts, gallbladder disease, endometrial hyperplasia, or endometrial cancer.

Current protein-based technology offers a new therapeutic venue by which antibodies bind the drug in the blood stream, inactivating its toxic effects. The therapeutic potential of the anticocaine antibody GNC92H2 was examined using a model of cocaine overdose. Swiss albino mice prepared with intrajugular catheters were tested in photocell cages after administration of 93 mg/kg (LD50) of cocaine and GNC92H2 infusions ranging from 30 to 190 mg/kg. GNC92H2 was delivered 30 min before, concomitantly or 3 min after cocaine treatment.

METHODS: Thirty-nine postmenopausal women with osteopenia or osteoporosis were included in this prospective, controlled clinical study. Twenty-five women were given raloxifene hydrochloride (60 mg/day) plus calcium (500 mg/day). Age-matched controls (n = 14) were given only calcium. Plasma TAFI, tPA, and PAI-1 antigen levels were measured at baseline and after 3 months of treatment by commercially available ELISA kits. Variations of individuals were assessed by Wilcoxon's test. Relationship between those markers and demographic characteristics were investigated. RESULTS: Three months of raloxifene treatment was associated with a significant decrease in the plasma TAFI antigen concentrations (16% change, P < 0.01), and a significant increase in tPA antigen concentrations (25% change, P < 0.05). A significant correlation was found between baseline TAFI antigen concentrations and the duration of amenorrhea (P < 0.05; r = 0.33).

The ethanolic extract of Daucus carota seeds (DCE) was administered orally in three doses (100, 200, 400 mg/kg) for seven successive days to different groups of young and aged mice. Elevated plus maze and passive avoidance apparatus served as the exteroceptive behavioral models for testing memory. Diazepam-, scopolamine- and ageing-induced amnesia served as the interoceptive behavioral models. DCE (200, 400 mg/kg, p.o.) showed significant improvement in memory scores of young and aged mice. The extent of memory improvement evoked by DCE was 23% at the dose of 200 mg/kg and 35% at the dose of 400 mg/kg in young mice using elevated plus maze. Similarly, significant improvements in memory scores were observed using passive avoidance apparatus and aged mice. Furthermore, DCE reversed the amnesia induced by scopolamine (0.4 mg/kg, i.p.) and diazepam (1 mg/kg, i.p.). Daucus carota extract (200, 400 mg/kg, p.o.) reduced significantly the brain acetylcholinesterase activity and cholesterol levels in young and aged mice. The extent of inhibition of brain cholinesterase activity evoked by DCE at the dose of 400 mg/kg was 22% in young and 19% in aged mice. There was a remarkable reduction in total cholesterol level as well, to the extent of 23% in young and 21% in aged animals with this dose of DCE. Therefore, DCE may prove to be a useful remedy for the management of cognitive dysfunctions on account of its multifarious beneficial effects such as, memory improving property, cholesterol lowering property and anticholinesterase activity.","[{'text': 'cognitive dysfunctions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 221, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'extract of Daucus carota seeds', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 297, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'DCE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 329, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'Diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 582, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 593, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 625, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'DCE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'DCE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 822, 'end': 825, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'DCE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1064, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1097, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1131, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'Daucus carota extract', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'DCE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1382, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'DCE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1588, 'end': 1591, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'DCE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1604, 'end': 1607, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'cognitive dysfunctions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1662, 'end': 1684, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'D002784'}]" +157,16904497,Cauda equina syndrome after epidural steroid injection: a case report.,"OBJECTIVE: Conventional treatment methods of lumbusacral radiculopathy are physical therapy, epidural steroid injections, oral medications, and spinal manipulative therapy. Cauda equina syndrome is a rare complication of epidural anesthesia. The following case is a report of cauda equina syndrome possibly caused by epidural injection of triamcinolone and bupivacaine. CLINICAL FEATURES: A 50-year-old woman with low back and right leg pain was scheduled for epidural steroid injection. INTERVENTION AND OUTCOME: An 18-gauge Touhy needle was inserted until loss of resistance occurred at the L4-5 level. Spread of the contrast medium within the epidural space was determined by radiographic imaging. After verifying the epidural space, bupivacaine and triamcinolone diacetate were injected. After the injection, there was a reduction in radicular symptoms. Three hours later, she complained of perineal numbness and lower extremity weakness. The neurologic evaluation revealed loss of sensation in the saddle area and medial aspect of her right leg. There was a decrease in the perception of pinprick test. Deep-tendon reflexes were decreased especially in the right leg. She was unable to urinate. The patient's symptoms improved slightly over the next few hours. She had a gradual return of motor function and ability of feeling Foley catheter. All of the symptoms were completely resolved over the next 8 hours. CONCLUSION: Complications associated with epidural steroid injections are rare. Clinical examination and continued vigilance for neurologic deterioration after epidural steroid injections is important.","[{'text': 'Cauda equina syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D011128'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'radiculopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 128, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D011843'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'Cauda equina syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D011128'}, {'text': 'cauda equina syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 347, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D011128'}, {'text': 'triamcinolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 410, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 428, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 540, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 808, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'triamcinolone diacetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 824, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'C030262'}, {'text': 'numbness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 975, 'end': 983, 'mesh': 'D006987'}, {'text': 'lower extremity weakness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 988, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D020335'}, {'text': 'loss of sensation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D006987'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1538, 'end': 1545, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'neurologic deterioration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1616, 'end': 1640, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1656, 'end': 1663, 'mesh': 'D013256'}]" +158,16938416,High-dose testosterone is associated with atherosclerosis in postmenopausal women.,"OBJECTIVES: To study the long-term effects of androgen treatment on atherosclerosis in postmenopausal women. METHODS: In a population-based study in 513 naturally postmenopausal women aged 54-67 years, we studied the association between self-reported intramuscularly administered high-dose estrogen-testosterone therapy (estradiol- and testosterone esters) and aortic atherosclerosis. Aortic atherosclerosis was diagnosed by radiographic detection of calcified deposits in the abdominal aorta, which have been shown to reflect intima atherosclerosis. Hormone therapy users were compared with never users. RESULTS: Intramuscular hormone therapy use for 1 year or longer was reported by 25 women. In almost half of these women severe atherosclerosis of the aorta was present (n=11), while in women without hormone use severe atherosclerosis of the aorta was present in less than 20% (OR 3.1; 95% CI, 1.1-8.5, adjusted for age, years since menopause, smoking, and body mass index). The association remained after additional adjustment for diabetes, cholesterol level, systolic blood pressure, or alcohol use. No association was found for hormone use less than 1 year. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that high-dose testosterone therapy may adversely affect atherosclerosis in postmenopausal women and indicate that androgen replacement in these women may not be harmless.","[{'text': 'testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 151, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 373, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 382, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'estradiol- and testosterone esters', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 438, 'mesh': 'C032109'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 466, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 617, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 815, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 906, 'end': 921, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1119, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1307, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1337, 'end': 1352, 'mesh': 'D050197'}]" +159,17147461,Sirolimus-associated proteinuria and renal dysfunction.,"Sirolimus is a novel immunosuppressant with potent antiproliferative actions through its ability to inhibit the raptor-containing mammalian target of rapamycin protein kinase. Sirolimus represents a major therapeutic advance in the prevention of acute renal allograft rejection and chronic allograft nephropathy. Its role in the therapy of glomerulonephritis, autoimmunity, cystic renal diseases and renal cancer is under investigation. Because sirolimus does not share the vasomotor renal adverse effects exhibited by calcineurin inhibitors, it has been designated a 'non-nephrotoxic drug'. However, clinical reports suggest that, under some circumstances, sirolimus is associated with proteinuria and acute renal dysfunction. A common risk factor appears to be presence of pre-existing chronic renal damage. The mechanisms of sirolimus-associated proteinuria are multifactorial and may be due to an increase in glomerular capillary pressure following calcineurin inhibitor withdrawal. It has also been suggested that sirolimus directly causes increased glomerular permeability/injury, but evidence for this mechanism is currently inconclusive. The acute renal dysfunction associated with sirolimus (such as in delayed graft function) may be due to suppression of compensatory renal cell proliferation and survival/repair processes. Although these adverse effects occur in some patients, their occurrence could be minimised by knowledge of the molecular effects of sirolimus on the kidney, the use of sirolimus in appropriate patient populations, close monitoring of proteinuria and renal function, use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers if proteinuria occurs and withdrawal if needed. Further long-term analysis of renal allograft studies using sirolimus as de novo immunosuppression along with clinical and laboratory studies will refine these issues in the future.","[{'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 21, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 206, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 232, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 356, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 396, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'autoimmunity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 416, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D001327'}, {'text': 'cystic renal diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 430, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D052177'}, {'text': 'renal cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D007680'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 629, 'end': 640, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 714, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 743, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'acute renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 759, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'chronic renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 844, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D051436'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 884, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 905, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'acute renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1229, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1567, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1624, 'end': 1635, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1663, 'end': 1674, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1707, 'end': 1721, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1743, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1848, 'end': 1857, 'mesh': 'D020123'}]" +160,17241784,Progressive myopathy with up-regulation of MHC-I associated with statin therapy.,"Statins can cause a necrotizing myopathy and hyperCKaemia which is reversible on cessation of the drug. What is less well known is a phenomenon whereby statins may induce a myopathy, which persists or may progress after stopping the drug. We investigated the muscle pathology in 8 such cases. All had myofibre necrosis but only 3 had an inflammatory infiltrate. In all cases there was diffuse or multifocal up-regulation of MHC-I expression even in non-necrotic fibres. Progressive improvement occurred in 7 cases after commencement of prednisolone and methotrexate, and in one case spontaneously. These observations suggest that statins may initiate an immune-mediated myopathy that persists after withdrawal of the drug and responds to immunosuppressive therapy. The mechanism of this myopathy is uncertain but may involve the induction by statins of an endoplasmic reticulum stress response with associated up-regulation of MHC-I expression and antigen presentation by muscle fibres.","[{'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'statin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'Statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 113, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'hyperCKaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 126, 'end': 138, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 233, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 254, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 391, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'necrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 534, 'end': 542, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'prednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 617, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D011239'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 634, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 711, 'end': 718, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 751, 'end': 759, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 868, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D019821'}]" +161,17261653,Direct inhibition of cardiac hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated pacemaker channels by clonidine.,"BACKGROUND: Inhibition of cardiac sympathetic tone represents an important strategy for treatment of cardiovascular disease, including arrhythmia, coronary heart disease, and chronic heart failure. Activation of presynaptic alpha2-adrenoceptors is the most widely accepted mechanism of action of the antisympathetic drug clonidine; however, other target proteins have been postulated to contribute to the in vivo actions of clonidine. METHODS AND RESULTS: To test whether clonidine elicits pharmacological effects independent of alpha2-adrenoceptors, we have generated mice with a targeted deletion of all 3 alpha2-adrenoceptor subtypes (alpha2ABC-/-). Alpha2ABC-/- mice were completely unresponsive to the analgesic and hypnotic effects of clonidine; however, clonidine significantly lowered heart rate in alpha2ABC-/- mice by up to 150 bpm. Clonidine-induced bradycardia in conscious alpha2ABC-/- mice was 32.3% (10 microg/kg) and 26.6% (100 microg/kg) of the effect in wild-type mice. A similar bradycardic effect of clonidine was observed in isolated spontaneously beating right atria from alpha2ABC-knockout and wild-type mice. Clonidine inhibited the native pacemaker current (I(f)) in isolated sinoatrial node pacemaker cells and the I(f)-generating hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) 2 and HCN4 channels in transfected HEK293 cells. As a consequence of blocking I(f), clonidine reduced the slope of the diastolic depolarization and the frequency of pacemaker potentials in sinoatrial node cells from wild-type and alpha2ABC-knockout mice. CONCLUSIONS: Direct inhibition of cardiac HCN pacemaker channels contributes to the bradycardic effects of clonidine gene-targeted mice in vivo, and thus, clonidine-like drugs represent novel structures for future HCN channel inhibitors.","[{'text': 'cyclic nucleotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 57, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D009712'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 215, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 249, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'coronary heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 261, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D003327'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 297, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 435, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 538, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 586, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 855, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 875, 'end': 884, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'Clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 957, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 975, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'Clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1256, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'cyclic nucleotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1399, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D009712'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1513, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1791, 'end': 1800, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1839, 'end': 1848, 'mesh': 'D003000'}]" +162,17343925,Influence of smoking on developing cochlea. Does smoking during pregnancy affect the amplitudes of transient evoked otoacoustic emissions in newborns?,"OBJECTIVE: Maternal tobacco smoking has negative effects on fetal growth. The influence of smoking during pregnancy on the developing cochlea has not been estimated, although smoking has been positively associated with hearing loss in adults. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of maternal smoking on transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs) of healthy neonates. METHODS: This study was undertaken as part of neonatal screening for hearing impairment and involved both ears of 200 newborns. Newborns whose mothers reported smoking during pregnancy (n=200 ears) were compared to a control group of newborns (n=200 ears), whose mothers were non-smokers. Exposure to tobacco was characterized as low (<5 cigarettes per day, n=88 ears), moderate (5< or =cigarettes per day<10, n=76) or high (> or =10 cigarettes per day, n=36). RESULTS: In exposed neonates, TEOAEs mean response (across frequency) and mean amplitude at 4000Hz was significantly lower than in non-exposed neonates. Comparisons between exposed newborns' subgroups revealed no significant differences. However, by comparing each subgroup to control group, we found statistically significant decreases of TEOAEs amplitudes at 4000Hz for all three groups. Mean TEOAEs responses of highly exposed newborns were also significantly lower in comparison to our control group. CONCLUSION: In utero, exposure to tobacco smoking seems to have a small impact on outer hair cells. These effects seem to be equally true for all exposed newborns, regardless of the degree of exposure. Further studies are needed in order to establish a potential negative effect of maternal smoking on the neonate's hearing acuity.","[{'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 242, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 326, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 370, 'end': 382, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 463, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'hearing impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 612, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 703, 'end': 710, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'decreases of TEOAEs amplitudes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1331, 'end': 1361, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1558, 'mesh': 'D012906'}, {'text': 'smoking', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1800, 'end': 1807, 'mesh': 'D012906'}]" +163,17400887,Neuroinflammation and behavioral abnormalities after neonatal terbutaline treatment in rats: implications for autism.,"Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder presenting before 3 years of age with deficits in communication and social skills and repetitive behaviors. In addition to genetic influences, recent studies suggest that prenatal drug or chemical exposures are risk factors for autism. Terbutaline, a beta2-adrenoceptor agonist used to arrest preterm labor, has been associated with increased concordance for autism in dizygotic twins. We studied the effects of terbutaline on microglial activation in different brain regions and behavioral outcomes in developing rats. Newborn rats were given terbutaline (10 mg/kg) daily on postnatal days (PN) 2 to 5 or PN 11 to 14 and examined 24 h after the last dose and at PN 30. Immunohistochemical studies showed that administration of terbutaline on PN 2 to 5 produced a robust increase in microglial activation on PN 30 in the cerebral cortex, as well as in cerebellar and cerebrocortical white matter. None of these effects occurred in animals given terbutaline on PN 11 to 14. In behavioral tests, animals treated with terbutaline on PN 2 to 5 showed consistent patterns of hyper-reactivity to novelty and aversive stimuli when assessed in a novel open field, as well as in the acoustic startle response test. Our findings indicate that beta2-adrenoceptor overstimulation during an early critical period results in microglial activation associated with innate neuroinflammatory pathways and behavioral abnormalities, similar to those described in autism. This study provides a useful animal model for understanding the neuropathological processes underlying autism spectrum disorders.","[{'text': 'Neuroinflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D020078'}, {'text': 'behavioral abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 22, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 62, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'autism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 110, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D001321'}, {'text': 'Autism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D001321'}, {'text': 'neurodevelopmental disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 130, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D002658'}, {'text': 'deficits in communication and social skills', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 196, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D003147'}, {'text': 'repetitive behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'autism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 386, 'end': 392, 'mesh': 'D001321'}, {'text': 'Terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'preterm labor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D007752'}, {'text': 'autism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 517, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D001321'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 570, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 702, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 897, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1114, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'behavioral abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1545, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'autism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1601, 'end': 1607, 'mesh': 'D001321'}, {'text': 'autism spectrum disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1712, 'end': 1737, 'mesh': 'D002659'}]" +164,17612891,Acute myocarditis associated with clozapine.,"OBJECTIVE: A case of acute myocarditis associated with the commencement of clozapine is described, highlighting the onset, course and possible contributing factors.

While the mechanisms underlying cocaine's rewarding effects have been studied extensively, less attention has been paid to the unpleasant behavioral states induced by cocaine, such as anxiety. METHODS: In this study, we evaluated the performance of dopamine beta-hydroxylase knockout (Dbh -/-) mice, which lack norepinephrine (NE), in the elevated plus maze (EPM) to examine the contribution of noradrenergic signaling to cocaine-induced anxiety. RESULTS: We found that cocaine dose-dependently increased anxiety-like behavior in control (Dbh +/-) mice, as measured by a decrease in open arm exploration. The Dbh -/- mice had normal baseline performance in the EPM but were completely resistant to the anxiogenic effects of cocaine. Cocaine-induced anxiety was also attenuated in Dbh +/- mice following administration of disulfiram, a dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) inhibitor. In experiments using specific adrenergic antagonists, we found that pretreatment with the beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist propranolol blocked cocaine-induced anxiety-like behavior in Dbh +/- and wild-type C57BL6/J mice, while the alpha(1) antagonist prazosin and the alpha(2) antagonist yohimbine had no effect.

METHOD: In a 16-week multicenter, double-blind trial, 122 children with ADHD were randomly assigned to clonidine (n = 31), methylphenidate (n = 29), clonidine and methylphenidate (n = 32), or placebo (n = 30). Doses were flexibly titrated up to 0.6 mg/day for clonidine and 60 mg/day for methylphenidate (both with divided dosing). Groups were compared regarding adverse events and changes from baseline to week 16 in electrocardiograms and vital signs. RESULTS: There were more incidents of bradycardia in subjects treated with clonidine compared with those not treated with clonidine (17.5% versus 3.4%; p =.02), but no other significant group differences regarding electrocardiogram and other cardiovascular outcomes. There were no suggestions of interactions between clonidine and methylphenidate regarding cardiovascular outcomes. Moderate or severe adverse events were more common in subjects on clonidine (79.4% versus 49.2%; p =.0006) but not associated with higher rates of early study withdrawal. Drowsiness was common on clonidine, but generally resolved by 6 to 8 weeks. CONCLUSIONS: Clonidine, used alone or with methylphenidate, appears safe and well tolerated in childhood ADHD. Physicians prescribing clonidine should monitor for bradycardia and advise patients about the high likelihood of initial drowsiness.","[{'text': 'Clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 14, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D001289'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 163, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'methylphenidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 183, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D008774'}, {'text': 'attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 216, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'D001289'}, {'text': 'ADHD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 258, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D001289'}, {'text': 'ADHD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D001289'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 368, 'end': 377, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'methylphenidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 388, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D008774'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 414, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'methylphenidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 428, 'end': 443, 'mesh': 'D008774'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 525, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'methylphenidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 553, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D008774'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 757, 'end': 768, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 841, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1045, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'methylphenidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1050, 'end': 1065, 'mesh': 'D008774'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'Drowsiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1272, 'end': 1282, 'mesh': 'D006970'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'Clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1361, 'end': 1370, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'methylphenidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1406, 'mesh': 'D008774'}, {'text': 'ADHD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1453, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D001289'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1482, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'drowsiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1580, 'end': 1590, 'mesh': 'D006970'}]" +168,18217897,Thalidomide has limited single-agent activity in relapsed or refractory indolent non-Hodgkin lymphomas: a phase II trial of the Cancer and Leukemia Group B.,"Thalidomide is an immunomodulatory agent with demonstrated activity in multiple myeloma, mantle cell lymphoma and lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma. Its activity is believed to be due modulation of the tumour milieu, including downregulation of angiogenesis and inflammatory cytokines. Between July 2001 and April 2004, 24 patients with relapsed/refractory indolent lymphomas received thalidomide 200 mg daily with escalation by 100 mg daily every 1-2 weeks as tolerated, up to a maximum of 800 mg daily. Patients had received a median of 2 (range, 1-4) prior regimens. Of 24 evaluable patients, two achieved a complete remission and one achieved a partial remission for an overall response rate of 12.5% (95% confidence interval: 2.6-32.4%). Eleven patients progressed during therapy. Grade 3-4 adverse effects included myelosuppression, fatigue, somnolence/depressed mood, neuropathy and dyspnea.

However, the observation that antagonists of the glutamate N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor produce schizophrenic-like symptoms in humans has led to the idea of a dysfunctioning of the glutamatergic system via its NMDA receptor. As a result, there is a growing interest in the development of pharmacological agents with potential antipsychotic properties that enhance the activity of the glutamatergic system via a modulation of the NMDA receptor. Among them are glycine transporter-1 (GlyT1) inhibitors such as SSR103800, which indirectly enhance NMDA receptor function by increasing the glycine (a co-agonist for the NMDA receptor) levels in the synapse. This study aimed at investigating the potential antipsychotic-like properties of SSR103800, with a particular focus on models of hyperactivity, involving either drug challenge (ie, amphetamine and MK-801) or transgenic mice (ie, NMDA Nr1(neo-/-) and DAT(-/-)). Results showed that SSR103800 (10-30 mg/kg p.o.) blocked hyperactivity induced by the non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, MK-801 and partially reversed spontaneous hyperactivity of NMDA Nr1(neo-/-) mice. In contrast, SSR103800 failed to affect hyperactivity induced by amphetamine or naturally observed in dopamine transporter (DAT(-/-)) knockout mice (10-30 mg/kg p.o.). Importantly, both classical (haloperidol) and atypical (olanzapine, clozapine and aripiprazole) antipsychotics were effective in all these models of hyperactivity. However, unlike these latter, SSR103800 did not produce catalepsy (retention on the bar test) up to 30 mg/kg p.o. Together these findings show that the GlyT1 inhibitor, SSR103800, produces antipsychotic-like effects, which differ from those observed with compounds primarily targeting the dopaminergic system, and has a reduced side-effect potential as compared with these latter drugs.","[{'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 4, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'SSR103800', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 45, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'Schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 202, 'end': 210, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 279, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 289, 'end': 309, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 311, 'end': 315, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'schizophrenic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 334, 'end': 347, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 667, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 697, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'SSR103800', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 755, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 786, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 853, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'SSR103800', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 981, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1088, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1120, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'SSR103800', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1172, 'end': 1181, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1258, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1280, 'end': 1286, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1322, 'end': 1335, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1343, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'SSR103800', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1384, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1402, 'end': 1415, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1427, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1464, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1559, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1586, 'end': 1596, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1598, 'end': 1607, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'aripiprazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1624, 'mesh': 'C094645'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1679, 'end': 1692, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'SSR103800', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1724, 'end': 1733, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1750, 'end': 1759, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'SSR103800', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1863, 'end': 1872, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +173,19957053,Phenylephrine but not ephedrine reduces frontal lobe oxygenation following anesthesia-induced hypotension.,"BACKGROUND: Vasopressor agents are used to correct anesthesia-induced hypotension. We describe the effect of phenylephrine and ephedrine on frontal lobe oxygenation (S(c)O(2)) following anesthesia-induced hypotension. METHODS: Following induction of anesthesia by fentanyl (0.15 mg kg(-1)) and propofol (2.0 mg kg(-1)), 13 patients received phenylephrine (0.1 mg iv) and 12 patients received ephedrine (10 mg iv) to restore mean arterial pressure (MAP). Heart rate (HR), MAP, stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), and frontal lobe oxygenation (S(c)O(2)) were registered. RESULTS: Induction of anesthesia was followed by a decrease in MAP, HR, SV, and CO concomitant with an elevation in S(c)O(2). After administration of phenylephrine, MAP increased (51 +/- 12 to 81 +/- 13 mmHg; P < 0.001; mean +/- SD). However, a 14% (from 70 +/- 8% to 60 +/- 7%) reduction in S(c)O(2) (P < 0.05) followed with no change in CO (3.7 +/- 1.1 to 3.4 +/- 0.9 l min(-1)). The administration of ephedrine led to a similar increase in MAP (53 +/- 9 to 79 +/- 8 mmHg; P < 0.001), restored CO (3.2 +/- 1.2 to 5.0 +/- 1.3 l min(-1)), and preserved S(c)O(2).

None of these current models demonstrate multiple OCD-like behaviors. METHODS: Neonatal rats were treated with the tricyclic antidepressant clomipramine or vehicle between days 9 and 16 twice daily and behaviorally tested in adulthood. RESULTS: Clomipramine exposure in immature rats produced significant behavioral and biochemical changes that include enhanced anxiety (elevated plus maze and marble burying), behavioral inflexibility (perseveration in the spontaneous alternation task and impaired reversal learning), working memory impairment (e.g., win-shift paradigm), hoarding, and corticostriatal dysfunction. Dopamine D2 receptors were elevated in the striatum, whereas serotonin 2C, but not serotonin 1A, receptors were elevated in the orbital frontal cortex. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first demonstration of multiple symptoms consistent with an OCD-like profile in animals. Moreover, these behaviors are accompanied by biochemical changes in brain regions previously identified as relevant to OCD. This novel model of OCD demonstrates that drug exposure during a sensitive period can program disease-like systems permanently, which could have implications for current and future therapeutic strategies for this and other psychiatric disorders.","[{'text': 'obsessive-compulsive-like behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 35, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'obsessive-compulsive disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 120, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'OCD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 151, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 260, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'OCD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 409, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'D002997'}, {'text': 'Clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D002997'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 631, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'behavioral inflexibility', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 680, 'end': 704, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 797, 'end': 814, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'hoarding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 843, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'D060845'}, {'text': 'corticostriatal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 857, 'end': 884, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'Dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 947, 'end': 956, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 969, 'end': 978, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'OCD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1123, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'OCD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1274, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'OCD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1299, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'psychiatric disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1499, 'end': 1520, 'mesh': 'D001523'}]" +175,891050,Late recovery of renal function in a woman with the hemolytic uremic syndrome.,"A case is reported of the hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in a woman taking oral contraceptives.

Myocardial concentrations of calcium also increased significantly (12.0 vs. 5.0 mg.per 100 Gm. of fat-free dry weight).

Ages ranged from 4 months to 17 years; 58 patients were males and 42 females. The most common primary tumor site was the head and neck. Renal function was investigated by measuring plasma and urinary electrolytes, glucosuria, proteinuria, aminoaciduria, urinary pH, osmolarity, creatinine clearance, phosphate tubular reabsorption, beta 2 microglobulinuria, and lysozymuria. Fifty-eight patients (78%) had normal renal tests, whereas 16 patients (22%) had renal abnormalities. Two subsets of patients were identified from this latter group: the first included four patients (5% of the total population) who developed major toxicity resulting in Fanconi's syndrome (TDFS); and the second group included five patients with elevated beta 2 microglobulinuria and low phosphate reabsorption. The remaining seven patients had isolated beta 2 microglobulinuria. Severe toxicity was correlated with the higher cumulative dose of 60 g/m2 of ifosfamide, a younger age (less than 2 1/2 years old), and a predominance of vesicoprostatic tumor involvement.

In the present study the role of habituation to the experimental environment on the stimulant effect of nicotine in rats was examined. In addition, the role of dopamine receptors in mediating nicotine-induced locomotor stimulation was investigated by examining the effects of selective D1 and D2 dopamine receptor antagonists on activity induced by nicotine. Locomotor activity was assessed in male Sprague-Dawley rats tested in photocell cages. Nicotine (1.0 mg/kg) caused a significant increase in locomotor activity in rats that were habituated to the test environment, but had only a weak and delayed stimulant action in rats that were unfamiliar with the test environment. The stimulant action of nicotine was blocked by the central nicotinic antagonist mecamylamine but not by the peripheral nicotinic blocker hexamethonium, indicating that the response is probably mediated by central nicotinic receptors. Nicotine-induced hyperactivity was blocked by the selective D1 antagonist SCH 23390, the selective D2 antagonist raclopride and the D1/D2 antagonist fluphenazine. Pretreatment with the D2 agonist PHNO enhanced nicotine-induced hyperactivity, whereas the D1 agonist SKF 38393 had no effect. The results indicate that acute nicotine injection induces a pronounced hyperactivity in rats habituated to the test environment. The effect appears to be mediated by central nicotine receptors, possibly located on dopaminergic neurons, and also requires the activation of both D1 and D2 dopamine receptors.","[{'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 247, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 391, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 487, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'Nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 733, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'increase in locomotor activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 775, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 989, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'mecamylamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1046, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D008464'}, {'text': 'hexamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1116, 'mesh': 'D018738'}, {'text': 'Nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1217, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'SCH 23390', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'C534628'}, {'text': 'raclopride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1313, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D020891'}, {'text': 'fluphenazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1361, 'mesh': 'D005476'}, {'text': 'PHNO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1396, 'end': 1400, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1410, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1427, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'SKF 38393', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'D015647'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1530, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1673, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1778, 'end': 1786, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +180,1867351,Neuropsychiatric side effects after the use of mefloquine.,"This study describes neuropsychiatric side effects in patients after treatment with mefloquine.

The incidence calculation revealed that one of 215 therapeutic users had reactions, compared with one of 13,000 in the prophylaxis group, making the risk of neuropsychiatric reactions after mefloquine treatment 60 times higher than after prophylaxis. Therefore, certain limitations for malaria prophylaxis and treatment with mefloquine are recommended.","[{'text': 'mefloquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 47, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D015767'}, {'text': 'mefloquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D015767'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'psychoses', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 201, 'end': 210, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'anxiety neurosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'disturbances of sleep-wake rhythm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 240, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'mefloquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 483, 'end': 493, 'mesh': 'D015767'}, {'text': 'mefloquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 719, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D015767'}, {'text': 'malaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 815, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D008288'}, {'text': 'mefloquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 854, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D015767'}]" +181,2070391,Reduction in injection pain using buffered lidocaine as a local anesthetic before cardiac catheterization.,"Previous reports have suggested that pain associated with the injection of lidocaine is related to the acidic pH of the solution. To determine if the addition of a buffering solution to adjust the pH of lidocaine into the physiologic range would reduce pain during injection, we performed a blinded randomized study in patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. Twenty patients were asked to quantify the severity of pain after receiving standard lidocaine in one femoral area and buffered lidocaine in the opposite femoral area. The mean pain score for buffered lidocaine was significantly lower than the mean score for standard lidocaine (2.7 +/- 1.9 vs. 3.8 +/- 2.2, P = 0.03). The pH adjustment of standard lidocaine can be accomplished easily in the catheterization laboratory before injection and results in a reduction of the pain occurring during the infiltration of tissues.","[{'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 144, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 182, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 310, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 360, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 526, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 556, 'end': 565, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 648, 'end': 652, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 672, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 739, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 942, 'end': 946, 'mesh': 'D010146'}]" +182,2266990,"Randomized, double-blind trial of mazindol in Duchenne dystrophy.","There is evidence that growth hormone may be related to the progression of weakness in Duchenne dystrophy.

Many of these patients are taking pentoxifylline (Trental), a methylxanthine derivative which may improve intermittent claudication. Whether pentoxifylline inhibits dipyridamole-induced coronary hyperemia like other methylxanthines such as theophylline and should be stopped prior to dipyridamole-thallium-201 imaging is unknown. Therefore, we studied the hyperemic response to dipyridamole in seven open-chest anesthetized dogs after pretreatment with either pentoxifylline (0, 7.5, or 15 mg/kg i.v.) or theophylline (3 mg/kg i.v.). Baseline circumflex coronary blood flows did not differ significantly among treatment groups. Dipyridamole significantly increased coronary blood flow before and after 7.5 or 15 mm/kg i.v. pentoxifylline (p less than 0.002). Neither dose of pentoxifylline significantly decreased the dipyridamole-induced hyperemia, while peak coronary blood flow was significantly lower after theophylline (p less than 0.01).

Suppression of irCRF secretion in response to nitroprusside-induced hypotension is observed and occurs at a plasma corticosterone level between 8-12 micrograms/dl.

Ten rats had arterial, central venous (CVP), and subdural cannulae inserted under halothane anesthesia. The animals were mechanically ventilated to achieve normocarbia (PCO2 = 42 +/- 1 mmHg, mean +/- SE). Following instrumentation, halothane was discontinued and alfentanil (125 mu/kg) administered iv during emergence from halothane anesthesia. In the five rats that developed somatic rigidity, ICP and CVP increased significantly above baseline (delta ICP 7.5 +/- 1.0 mmHg, delta CVP 5.9 +/- 1.3 mmHg). These variables returned to baseline when rigidity was abolished with metocurine. In five rats that did not become rigid, ICP and CVP did not change following alfentanil. These observations suggest that rigidity should be prevented when alfentanil, and, presumably, other opiates, are used in the anesthetic management of patients with ICP problems.","[{'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 116, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 135, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 235, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 385, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 416, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 477, 'end': 486, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'somatic rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 531, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 700, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'metocurine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 728, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'C032943'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 817, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 861, 'end': 869, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 895, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D015760'}]" +190,3187073,Adverse cardiac effects during induction chemotherapy treatment with cis-platin and 5-fluorouracil.,"Survival for patients with advanced head and neck carcinoma and esophageal carcinoma is poor with radiotherapy and/or surgery. Obviously, there is a need for effective chemotherapy. In the present study, cis-platin (80-120 mg/m2BSA) and 5-FU (1000 mg/m2BSA daily as a continuous infusion during 5 days) were given to 76 patients before radiotherapy and surgery. The aim of the study was to clarify the incidence and severity of adverse cardiac effects to this treatment. Before treatment all patients had a cardiac evaluation and during treatment serial ECG recordings were performed. In the pre-treatment evaluation, signs of cardiovascular disease were found in 33 patients (43%). During treatment, adverse cardiac effects were observed in 14 patients (18%). The mean age of these patients was the same as for the entire group, 64 years. The incidence of cardiotoxicity was not higher in patients with signs of cardiovascular disease than in those without in the pre-treatment evaluation. The most common signs of cardiotoxicity were chest pain, ST-T wave changes and atrial fibrillation. This was followed by ventricular fibrillation in one patient and sudden death in another.

Twenty-two patients in the affected group had abnormal audiograms with deficits mostly in the high frequency range of 4,000 to 8,000 Hz and in the hearing threshold levels of 30 to 100 decibels. When deferoxamine therapy was discontinued and serial studies were performed, audiograms in seven cases reverted to normal or near normal within two to three weeks, and nine of 13 patients with symptoms became asymptomatic. Audiograms from 15 patients remained abnormal and four patients required hearing aids because of permanent disability. Since 18 of the 22 patients were initially receiving deferoxamine doses in excess of the commonly recommended 50 mg/kg per dose, therapy was restarted with lower doses, usually 50 mg/kg per dose or less depending on the degree of auditory abnormality, and with the exception of two cases no further toxicity was demonstrated. Auditory deterioration and improvement, demonstrated serially in individual patients receiving and not receiving deferoxamine, respectively, provided convincing evidence for a cause-and-effect relation between deferoxamine administration and ototoxicity. Based on these data, a plan of management was developed that allows effective yet safe administration of deferoxamine. A dose of 50 mg/kg is recommended in those without audiogram abnormalities. With mild toxicity, a reduction to 30 or 40 mg/kg per dose should result in a reversal of the abnormal results to normal within four weeks. Moderate abnormalities require a reduction of deferoxamine to 25 mg/kg per dose with careful monitoring. In those with symptoms of hearing loss, the drug should be stopped for four weeks, and when the audiogram is stable or improved, therapy should be restarted at 10 to 25 mg/kg per dose. Serial audiograms should be performed every six months in those without problems and more frequently in young patients with normal serum ferritin values and in those with auditory dysfunction.","[{'text': 'auditory neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 18, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D006311'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 193, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 219, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 266, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'abnormal audiograms with deficits mostly in the high frequency range of 4,000 to 8,000 Hz', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 326, 'end': 415, 'mesh': 'D006316'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 480, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'permanent disability', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 796, 'end': 816, 'mesh': 'D003638'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 871, 'end': 883, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'auditory abnormality', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1048, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D006311'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1125, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1257, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'ototoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1386, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D006311'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1516, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1604, 'end': 1612, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1792, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1865, 'end': 1877, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'auditory dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2195, 'end': 2215, 'mesh': 'D006311'}]" +193,3560095,Flurbiprofen in the treatment of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.,"Thirty-four patients with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, who were treated with flurbiprofen at a maximum dose of 4 mg/kg/day, had statistically significant decreases from baseline in 6 arthritis indices after 12 weeks of treatment.

Those dosages (greater than or equal to 10 mg/kg) that inhibited mean NTE activity in the spinal cord greater than or equal to 73% and brain greater than or equal to 67% of control values produced severe (greater than or equal to 3) cervical cord pathology in 85% of the rats. In contrast, dosages of Mipafox (less than or equal to 5 mg/kg) which inhibited mean NTE activity in spinal cord less than or equal to 61% and brain less than or equal to 60% produced this degree of cord damage in only 9% of the animals.

Thirty-six patients were treated with BCNU every 6 to 8 weeks, either by transfemoral catheterization of the internal carotid or vertebral artery or through a fully implantable intracarotid drug delivery system, beginning with a dose of 200 mg/sq m body surface area. Twelve patients with Grade III or IV astrocytomas were treated after partial resection of the tumor without prior radiation therapy. After two to seven cycles of chemotherapy, nine patients showed a decrease in tumor size and surrounding edema on contrast-enhanced computerized tomography scans. In the nine responders, median duration of chemotherapy response from the time of operation was 25 weeks (range 12 to more than 91 weeks). The median duration of survival in the 12 patients was 54 weeks (range 21 to more than 156 weeks), with an 18-month survival rate of 42%. Twenty-four patients with recurrent Grade I to IV astrocytomas, whose resection and irradiation therapy had failed, received two to eight courses of intra-arterial BCNU therapy. Seventeen of these had a response or were stable for a median of 20 weeks (range 6 to more than 66 weeks). The catheterization procedure is safe, with no immediate complication in 111 infusions of BCNU.

Cimetidine clearance decreased with age. The extrapolated 6-hr serum concentration of cimetidine per unit dose, after intravenous cimetidine, increased with age of the patients. The ratio of cimetidine clearance to creatinine clearance (Rc) averaged 4.8 +/- 2.0, indicating net tubular secretion for cimetidine. Rc seemed to be independent of age and decreased with increasing serum concentration of cimetidine, suggesting that secretion of cimetidine is a saturable process.

Amiloride reduced the drinking and urine volume of rats in an acute (6 or 12 h) and a subacute (3 days) experiment. 6 h after the administration of amiloride, a reduction was observed in the lithium content of the renal medulla but not in the other organs studied. At 12 h, all the tissues showed a slight increase in lithium levels. After 3 days of combined treatment, a marked elevation in plasma and tissue lithium levels accompanied a reduction in water intake. In all the experiments, the attenuation of the lithium-induced diabetes-insipidus-like syndrome by amiloride was accompanied by a reduction of the ratio between the lithium concentration in the renal medulla and its levels in the blood and an elevation in the plasma potassium level.

The efficacy of alprazolam and placebo in panic disorder with agoraphobia, and the side-effect and adverse effect profiles of both drug groups were measured. METHOD: In London and Toronto 154 patients who met DSM-III criteria for panic disorder with agoraphobia were randomised to alprazolam or placebo. Subjects in each drug group also received either exposure or relaxation. Treatment was from weeks 0 to 8 and was then tapered from weeks 8 to 16. RESULTS: Mean alprazolam dose was 5 mg daily. Compared with placebo subjects, alprazolam patients developed more adverse reactions (21% v. 0%) of depression, enuresis, disinhibition and aggression; and more side-effects, particularly sedation, irritability, impaired memory, weight loss and ataxia.

During treatment with octreotide, 17 patients developed sludge, 10 had gallstones, and 1 developed acute cholecystitis requiring surgery. In all of 7 patients examined acutely, gallbladder contractility was inhibited after a single 100-micrograms injection. In 8 patients followed for 24 weeks, gallbladder contractility remained depressed throughout therapy. After withdrawal of octreotide in 10 patients without gallstones, 8 patients assessed had return of normal gallbladder contractility within 1 month. In 8 of the remaining 10 patients who developed gallstones during treatment, gallbladder contractility normalized in 5 patients (3 of whom has disappearance of their stones within 3 weeks), and remained depressed in 3 (2 of whom had stones present at 6 months). Our results suggest that the suppression of gallbladder contractility is the cause of the successive formation of bile sludge, gallstones, and cholecystitis during octreotide therapy in Chinese acromegalic patients.

The first ultrastructural changes in structural elements of the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) in the cerebellar cortex were detectable after 3 months of the experiment. They became more severe in the later months of the experiment, and were most severe after 12 months, located mainly in the molecular layer of the cerebellar cortex. Lesions of the capillary included necrosis of endothelial cells. Organelles of these cells, in particular the mitochondria (increased number and size, distinct degeneration of their matrix and cristae) and Golgi apparatus were altered. Reduced size of capillary lumen and occlusion were caused by swollen endothelial cells which had luminal protrusions and swollen microvilli. Pressure on the vessel wall was produced by enlarged perivascular astrocytic processes. Fragments of necrotic endothelial cells were in the vascular lumens and in these there was loosening and breaking of tight cellular junctions. Damage to the vascular basement lamina was also observed. Damage to the capillary was accompanied by marked damage to neuroglial cells, mainly to perivascular processes of astrocytes. The proliferation of astrocytes (Bergmann's in particular) and occasionally of oligodendrocytes was found. Alterations in the structural elements of the BBB coexisted with marked lesions of neurons of the cerebellum (Purkinje cells are earliest). In electron micrographs both luminal and antiluminal sides of the BBB of the cerebellar cortex had similar lesions. The possible influence of the hepatic damage, mainly hyperammonemia, upon the development of valproate encephalopathy is discussed.","[{'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'valproate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'sodium valproate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 259, 'end': 275, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'neurological disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 391, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'cerebellum damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 425, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D002526'}, {'text': 'valproate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 445, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 455, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 837, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'luminal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'necrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1281, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'luminal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1871, 'end': 1878, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'hepatic damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1988, 'end': 2002, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'hyperammonemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2011, 'end': 2025, 'mesh': 'D022124'}, {'text': 'valproate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2051, 'end': 2060, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2061, 'end': 2075, 'mesh': 'D001927'}]" +212,9199746,Macula toxicity after intravitreal amikacin.,"BACKGROUND: Although intravitreal aminoglycosides have substantially improved visual prognosis in endophthalmitis, macular infarction may impair full visual recovery.

Limited studies in animals indicate potential hepatotoxicity of some of these compounds. We investigated an epidemic of liver disease in nine industrial workers who had had repeated accidental exposure to a mixture of 1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane (HCFC 123) and 1-chloro-1,2,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (HCFC 124). All nine exposed workers were affected to various degrees. Both compounds are metabolised in the same way as 1-bromo-1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane (halothane) to form reactive trifluoroacetyl halide intermediates, which have been implicated in the hepatotoxicity of halothane. We aimed to test whether HCFCs 123 and 124 can result in serious liver disease. METHODS: For one severely affected worker liver biopsy and immunohistochemical stainings for the presence of trifluoroacetyl protein adducts were done. The serum of six affected workers and five controls was tested for autoantibodies that react with human liver cytochrome-P450 2E1 (P450 2E1) and P58 protein disulphide isomerase isoform (P58). FINDINGS: The liver biopsy sample showed hepatocellular necrosis which was prominent in perivenular zone three and extended focally from portal tracts to portal tracts and centrilobular areas (bridging necrosis). Trifluoroacetyl-adducted proteins were detected in surviving hepatocytes. Autoantibodies against P450 2E1 or P58, previously associated with halothane hepatitis, were detected in the serum of five affected workers. INTERPRETATION: Repeated exposure of human beings to HCFCs 123 and 124 can result in serious liver injury in a large proportion of the exposed population. Although the exact mechanism of hepatotoxicity of these agents is not known, the results suggest that trifluoroacetyl-altered liver proteins are involved. In view of the potentially widespread use of these compounds, there is an urgent need to develop safer alternatives.","[{'text': 'liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'hydrochlorofluorocarbons', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 60, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ozone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 69, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D010126'}, {'text': 'chlorofluorocarbons', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 98, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D017402'}, {'text': 'Hydrochlorofluorocarbons', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 155, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'HCFCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 157, 'end': 162, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ozone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 217, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D010126'}, {'text': 'chlorofluorocarbons', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 233, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D017402'}, {'text': 'CFCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 254, 'end': 258, 'mesh': 'D017402'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 307, 'end': 321, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 381, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': '1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'C067411'}, {'text': 'HCFC 123', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 515, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'C067411'}, {'text': '1-chloro-1,2,2,2-tetrafluoroethane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 529, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'C072959'}, {'text': 'HCFC 124', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 565, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'C072959'}, {'text': '1-bromo-1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 685, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 725, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'trifluoroacetyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 753, 'end': 768, 'mesh': 'D014269'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 825, 'end': 839, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 843, 'end': 852, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 919, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'trifluoroacetyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D014269'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1343, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1481, 'end': 1489, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'Trifluoroacetyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1492, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D014269'}, {'text': 'halothane hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1633, 'end': 1652, 'mesh': 'C562477'}, {'text': 'liver injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1800, 'end': 1812, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1894, 'end': 1908, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'trifluoroacetyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1964, 'end': 1979, 'mesh': 'D014269'}]" +215,9522143,The effect of different anaesthetic agents in hearing loss following spinal anaesthesia.,"The cause of hearing loss after spinal anaesthesia is unknown. Up until now, the only factor studied has been the effect of the diameter of the spinal needle on post-operative sensorineural hearing loss. The aim of this study was to describe this hearing loss and to investigate other factors influencing the degree of hearing loss. Two groups of 22 similar patients were studied: one group received 6 mL prilocaine 2%; and the other received 3 mL bupivacaine 0.5%. Patients given prilocaine were more likely to develop hearing loss (10 out of 22) than those given bupivacaine (4 out of 22) (P < 0.05). The average hearing loss for speech frequencies was about 10 dB after prilocaine and 15 dB after bupivacaine. None of the patients complained of subjective hearing loss. Long-term follow-up of the patients was not possible.","[{'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 46, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 102, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'sensorineural hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 291, 'mesh': 'D006319'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 336, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 408, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 570, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 609, 'end': 621, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 654, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 704, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 762, 'end': 772, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 789, 'end': 800, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 848, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D034381'}]" +216,9522152,A transient neurological deficit following intrathecal injection of 1% hyperbaric bupivacaine for unilateral spinal anaesthesia.,"We describe a case of transient neurological deficit that occurred after unilateral spinal anaesthesia with 8 mg of 1% hyperbaric bupivacaine slowly injected through a 25-gauge pencil-point spinal needle. The surgery and anaesthesia were uneventful, but 3 days after surgery, the patient reported an area of hypoaesthesia over L3-L4 dermatomes of the leg which had been operated on (loss of pinprick sensation) without reduction in muscular strength. Sensation in this area returned to normal over the following 2 weeks. Prospective multicentre studies with a large population and a long follow-up should be performed in order to evaluate the incidence of this unusual side effect. However, we suggest that a low solution concentration should be preferred for unilateral spinal anaesthesia with a hyperbaric anaesthetic solution (if pencil-point needle and slow injection rate are employed), in order to minimize the risk of a localized high peak anaesthetic concentration, which might lead to a transient neurological deficit.","[{'text': 'neurological deficit', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D009461'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'neurological deficit', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 161, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D009461'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 259, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'loss of pinprick sensation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 512, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D012678'}, {'text': 'neurological deficit', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'D009461'}]" +217,9672936,Pethidine-associated seizure in a healthy adolescent receiving pethidine for postoperative pain control.,A healthy 17-year-old male received standard intermittent doses of pethidine via a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump for management of postoperative pain control.

The importance of this association was evaluated in Belgium while this country still had no restriction on the prescription of appetite suppressants. Thirty-five patients with primary pulmonary hypertension and 85 matched controls were recruited over 32 months (1992-1994) in Belgium. Exposure to appetite-suppressants was assessed on the basis of hospital records and standardized interview. Twenty-three of the patients had previously taken appetite suppressants, mainly fenfluramines, as compared with only 5 of the controls (66 versus 6%, p<0.0001). Five patients died before the interview, all of them had taken appetite suppressants. In 8 patients the diagnosis of primary pulmonary hypertension was uncertain, 5 of them had taken appetite suppressants. The patients who had been exposed to appetite suppressants tended to be on average more severely ill, and to have a shorter median delay between onset of symptoms and diagnosis. A policy of unrestricted prescription of appetite suppressants may lead to a high incidence of associated primary pulmonary hypertension. Intake of appetite suppressants may accelerate the progression of the disease.","[{'text': 'primary pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 18, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'Primary pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 99, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 221, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 376, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'primary pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 425, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'appetite-suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 546, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'fenfluramines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 722, 'end': 735, 'mesh': 'D005277'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 866, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'primary pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 950, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 986, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1046, 'end': 1067, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D001067'}, {'text': 'primary pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'appetite suppressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D001067'}]" +220,9754849,Choreoathetoid movements associated with rapid adjustment to methadone.,"Choreatiform hyperkinesias are known to be occasional movement abnormalities during intoxications with cocaine but not opiates.

This work evaluates the effects of TAM on isolated human erythrocytes, attempting to identify the underlying mechanisms on TAM-induced hemolytic anemia and the involvement of biomembranes in its cytostatic action mechanisms. TAM induces hemolysis of erythrocytes as a function of concentration. The extension of hemolysis is variable with erythrocyte samples, but 12.5 microM TAM induces total hemolysis of all tested suspensions. Despite inducing extensive erythrocyte lysis, TAM does not shift the osmotic fragility curves of erythrocytes. The hemolytic effect of TAM is prevented by low concentrations of alpha-tocopherol (alpha-T) and alpha-tocopherol acetate (alpha-TAc) (inactivated functional hydroxyl) indicating that TAM-induced hemolysis is not related to oxidative membrane damage. This was further evidenced by absence of oxygen consumption and hemoglobin oxidation both determined in parallel with TAM-induced hemolysis. Furthermore, it was observed that TAM inhibits the peroxidation of human erythrocytes induced by AAPH, thus ruling out TAM-induced cell oxidative stress. Hemolysis caused by TAM was not preceded by the leakage of K(+) from the cells, also excluding a colloid-osmotic type mechanism of hemolysis, according to the effects on osmotic fragility curves. However, TAM induces release of peripheral proteins of membrane-cytoskeleton and cytosol proteins essentially bound to band 3. Either alpha-T or alpha-TAc increases membrane packing and prevents TAM partition into model membranes. These effects suggest that the protection from hemolysis by tocopherols is related to a decreased TAM incorporation in condensed membranes and the structural damage of the erythrocyte membrane is consequently avoided. Therefore, TAM-induced hemolysis results from a structural perturbation of red cell membrane, leading to changes in the framework of the erythrocyte membrane and its cytoskeleton caused by its high partition in the membrane. These defects explain the abnormal erythrocyte shape and decreased mechanical stability promoted by TAM, resulting in hemolytic anemia. Additionally, since membrane leakage is a final stage of cytotoxicity, the disruption of the structural characteristics of biomembranes by TAM may contribute to the multiple mechanisms of its anticancer action.","[{'text': 'Hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'Tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 112, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 316, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 407, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 416, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 506, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 518, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 593, 'end': 602, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 657, 'end': 660, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 675, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 758, 'end': 761, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolytic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 827, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 847, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'alpha-tocopherol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 889, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'alpha-T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'alpha-tocopherol acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 920, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'alpha-TAc', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 946, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'hydroxyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 981, 'end': 989, 'mesh': 'D017665'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1007, 'end': 1010, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1115, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1192, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1249, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'AAPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1316, 'mesh': 'C046728'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'Hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1369, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1389, 'end': 1392, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1429, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1500, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1577, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'alpha-T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1699, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'alpha-TAc', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1710, 'end': 1719, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1760, 'end': 1763, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1843, 'end': 1852, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'tocopherols', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1856, 'end': 1867, 'mesh': 'D024505'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1894, 'end': 1897, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2025, 'end': 2028, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2037, 'end': 2046, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2339, 'end': 2342, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2357, 'end': 2373, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'TAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2514, 'end': 2517, 'mesh': 'D013629'}]" +223,10706004,"Changes of sodium and ATP affinities of the cardiac (Na,K)-ATPase during and after nitric oxide deficient hypertension.","In the cardiovascular system, NO is involved in the regulation of a variety of functions. Inhibition of NO synthesis induces sustained hypertension. In several models of hypertension, elevation of intracellular sodium level was documented in cardiac tissue. To assess the molecular basis of disturbances in transmembraneous transport of Na+, we studied the response of cardiac (Na,K)-ATPase to NO-deficient hypertension induced in rats by NO-synthase inhibition with 40 mg/kg/day N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) for 4 four weeks. After 4-week administration of L-NAME, the systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased by 36%. Two weeks after terminating the treatment, the SBP recovered to control value. When activating the (Na,K)-ATPase with its substrate ATP, no changes in Km and Vmax values were observed in NO-deficient rats. During activation with Na+, the Vmax remained unchanged, however the K(Na) increased by 50%, indicating a profound decrease in the affinity of the Na+-binding site in NO-deficient rats. After recovery from hypertension, the activity of (Na,K)-ATPase increased, due to higher affinity of the ATP-binding site, as revealed from the lowered Km value for ATP. The K(Na) value for Na+ returned to control value. Inhibition of NO-synthase induced a reversible hypertension accompanied by depressed Na+-extrusion from cardiac cells as a consequence of deteriorated Na+-binding properties of the (Na,K)-ATPase. After recovery of blood pressure to control values, the extrusion of Na+ from cardiac cells was normalized, as revealed by restoration of the (Na,K)-ATPase activity.","[{'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 53, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 106, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 255, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 290, 'end': 302, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 457, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 498, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 527, 'end': 539, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 600, 'end': 634, 'mesh': 'D019331'}, {'text': 'L-NAME', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D019331'}, {'text': 'L-NAME', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 693, 'end': 699, 'mesh': 'D019331'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 853, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 885, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 940, 'end': 942, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 982, 'end': 984, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1126, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1177, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1196, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1199, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1310, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1320, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1321, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1380, 'end': 1382, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1425, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'depressed', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1441, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1453, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1517, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1550, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1633, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1705, 'end': 1707, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1709, 'mesh': 'D011188'}]" +224,10721819,Effects of long-term pretreatment with isoproterenol on bromocriptine-induced tachycardia in conscious rats.,"It has been shown that bromocriptine-induced tachycardia, which persisted after adrenalectomy, is (i) mediated by central dopamine D2 receptor activation and (ii) reduced by 5-day isoproterenol pretreatment, supporting therefore the hypothesis that this effect is dependent on sympathetic outflow to the heart. This study was conducted to examine whether prolonged pretreatment with isoproterenol could abolish bromocriptine-induced tachycardia in conscious rats. Isoproterenol pretreatment for 15 days caused cardiac hypertrophy without affecting baseline blood pressure and heart rate. In control rats, intravenous bromocriptine (150 microg/kg) induced significant hypotension and tachycardia. Bromocriptine-induced hypotension was unaffected by isoproterenol pretreatment, while tachycardia was reversed to significant bradycardia, an effect that was partly reduced by i.v. domperidone (0.5 mg/kg). Neither cardiac vagal nor sympathetic tone was altered by isoproterenol pretreatment. In isolated perfused heart preparations from isoproterenol-pretreated rats, the isoproterenol-induced maximal increase in left ventricular systolic pressure was significantly reduced, compared with saline-pretreated rats (the EC50 of the isoproterenol-induced increase in left ventricular systolic pressure was enhanced approximately 22-fold). These results show that 15-day isoproterenol pretreatment not only abolished but reversed bromocriptine-induced tachycardia to bradycardia, an effect that is mainly related to further cardiac beta-adrenoceptor desensitization rather than to impairment of autonomic regulation of the heart. They suggest that, in normal conscious rats, the central tachycardia of bromocriptine appears to predominate and to mask the bradycardia of this agonist at peripheral dopamine D2 receptors.","[{'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 78, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 154, 'end': 165, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 231, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 289, 'end': 302, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 492, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 520, 'end': 533, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 542, 'end': 553, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'Isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 573, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'cardiac hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 619, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 726, 'end': 739, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 776, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 792, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'Bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 805, 'end': 818, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 827, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 891, 'end': 902, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 931, 'end': 942, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'domperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 986, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D004294'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1472, 'end': 1485, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1544, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1553, 'end': 1564, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1579, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1788, 'end': 1799, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1803, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1856, 'end': 1867, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1898, 'end': 1906, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +225,10737864,A developmental analysis of clonidine's effects on cardiac rate and ultrasound production in infant rats.,"Under controlled conditions, infant rats emit ultrasonic vocalizations during extreme cold exposure and after administration of the alpha(2) adrenoceptor agonist, clonidine.

Given that sympathetic neural dominance exhibits a similar developmental pattern, and given that clonidine induces sympathetic withdrawal and bradycardia, we hypothesized that clonidine's developmental effects on cardiac rate and ultrasound production would mirror each other. Therefore, in the present experiment, the effects of clonidine administration (0.5 mg/kg) on cardiac rate and ultrasound production were examined in 2-, 8-, 15-, and 20-day-old rats. Age-related changes in ultrasound production corresponded with changes in cardiovascular variables, including baseline cardiac rate and clonidine-induced bradycardia.

In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study, we studied 12 volunteers in three experiments. Capsaicin 100 micrograms was injected intradermally on the volar forearm followed by an i.v. infusion of ketamine (bolus 0.1 mg kg-1 over 10 min followed by infusion of 7 micrograms kg-1 min-1), lidocaine 5 mg kg-1 or saline for 50 min. Infusion started 15 min after injection of capsaicin. The following were measured: spontaneous pain, pain evoked by punctate and brush stimuli (VAS), and areas of brush-evoked and punctate-evoked hyperalgesia. Ketamine reduced both the area of brush-evoked and punctate-evoked hyperalgesia significantly and it tended to reduce brush-evoked pain. Lidocaine reduced the area of punctate-evoked hyperalgesia significantly. It tended to reduce VAS scores of spontaneous pain but had no effect on evoked pain. The differential effects of ketamine and lidocaine on static and dynamic hyperalgesia suggest that the two types of hyperalgesia are mediated by separate mechanisms and have a distinct pharmacology.","[{'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 95, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 140, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 210, 'end': 218, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 259, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 293, 'end': 305, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 317, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'Capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 443, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 638, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 723, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 775, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 781, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 876, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 890, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 969, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1021, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'Lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1036, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1214, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1236, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1259, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D006930'}]" +227,11007689,Cyclosporine and tacrolimus-associated thrombotic microangiopathy.,"The development of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) associated with the use of cyclosporine has been well documented. Treatments have included discontinuation or reduction of cyclosporine dose with or without concurrent plasma exchange, plasma infusion, anticoagulation, and intravenous immunoglobulin G infusion. However, for recipients of organ transplantation, removing the inciting agent is not without the attendant risk of precipitating acute rejection and graft loss. The last decade has seen the emergence of tacrolimus as a potent immunosuppressive agent with mechanisms of action virtually identical to those of cyclosporine. As a result, switching to tacrolimus has been reported to be a viable therapeutic option in the setting of cyclosporine-induced TMA. With the more widespread application of tacrolimus in organ transplantation, tacrolimus-associated TMA has also been recognized. However, literature regarding the incidence of the recurrence of TMA in patients exposed sequentially to cyclosporine and tacrolimus is limited. We report a case of a living donor renal transplant recipient who developed cyclosporine-induced TMA that responded to the withdrawal of cyclosporine in conjunction with plasmapheresis and fresh frozen plasma replacement therapy. Introduction of tacrolimus as an alternative immunosuppressive agent resulted in the recurrence of TMA and the subsequent loss of the renal allograft. Patients who are switched from cyclosporine to tacrolimus or vice versa should be closely monitored for the signs and symptoms of recurrent TMA.","[{'text': 'Cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 86, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'TMA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 114, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 146, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 242, 'end': 254, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 584, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 689, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 729, 'end': 739, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 810, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'TMA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 831, 'end': 834, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 876, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 913, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'TMA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 935, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'TMA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1070, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'TMA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1259, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'TMA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1439, 'end': 1442, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1534, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1538, 'end': 1548, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'TMA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1634, 'mesh': 'D057049'}]" +228,11256525,Repeated transient anuria following losartan administration in a patient with a solitary kidney.,"We report the case of a 70-year-old hypertensive man with a solitary kidney and chronic renal insufficiency who developed two episodes of transient anuria after losartan administration. He was hospitalized for a myocardial infarction with pulmonary edema, treated with high-dose diuretics. Due to severe systolic dysfunction losartan was prescribed. Surprisingly, the first dose of 50 mg of losartan resulted in a sudden anuria, which lasted eight hours despite high-dose furosemide and amine infusion. One week later, by mistake, losartan was prescribed again and after the second dose of 50 mg, the patient developed a second episode of transient anuria lasting 10 hours. During these two episodes, his blood pressure diminished but no severe hypotension was noted. Ultimately, an arteriography showed a 70-80% renal artery stenosis. In this patient, renal artery stenosis combined with heart failure and diuretic therapy certainly resulted in a strong activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Under such conditions, angiotensin II receptor blockade by losartan probably induced a critical fall in glomerular filtration pressure. This case report highlights the fact that the angiotensin II receptor antagonist losartan can cause serious unexpected complications in patients with renovascular disease and should be used with extreme caution in this setting.","[{'text': 'anuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D001002'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 133, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'chronic renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 177, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'D051436'}, {'text': 'anuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 245, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D001002'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 258, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 309, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'pulmonary edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 336, 'end': 351, 'mesh': 'D011654'}, {'text': 'systolic dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 401, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 488, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'anuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 518, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D001002'}, {'text': 'furosemide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D005665'}, {'text': 'amine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 584, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D000588'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 636, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'anuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 746, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D001002'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 842, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'renal artery stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 910, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D012078'}, {'text': 'renal artery stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 950, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D012078'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 986, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1161, 'end': 1169, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1284, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'renovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1388, 'end': 1408, 'mesh': 'D014652'}]" +229,11334364,"In vivo protection of dna damage associated apoptotic and necrotic cell deaths during acetaminophen-induced nephrotoxicity, amiodarone-induced lung toxicity and doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by a novel IH636 grape seed proanthocyanidin extract.","Grape seed extract, primarily a mixture of proanthocyanidins, has been shown to modulate a wide-range of biological, pharmacological and toxicological effects which are mainly cytoprotective. This study assessed the ability of IH636 grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) to prevent acetaminophen (AAP)-induced nephrotoxicity, amiodarone (AMI)-induced lung toxicity, and doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity in mice. Experimental design consisted of four groups: control (vehicle alone), GSPE alone, drug alone and GSPE+drug. For the cytoprotection study, animals were orally gavaged 100 mg/Kg GSPE for 7-10 days followed by i.p. injections of organ specific three drugs (AAP: 500 mg/Kg for 24 h; AMI: 50 mg/Kg/day for four days; DOX: 20 mg/Kg for 48 h). Parameters of study included analysis of serum chemistry (ALT, BUN and CPK), and orderly fragmentation of genomic DNA (both endonuclease-dependent and independent) in addition to microscopic evaluation of damage and/or protection in corresponding PAS stained tissues. Results indicate that GSPE preexposure prior to AAP, AMI and DOX, provided near complete protection in terms of serum chemistry changes (ALT, BUN and CPK), and significantly reduced DNA fragmentation. Histopathological examination of kidney, heart and lung sections revealed moderate to massive tissue damage with a variety of morphological aberrations by all the three drugs in the absence of GSPE preexposure than in its presence. GSPE+drug exposed tissues exhibited minor residual damage or near total recovery. Additionally, histopathological alterations mirrored both serum chemistry changes and the pattern of DNA fragmentation. Interestingly, all the drugs, such as, AAP, AMI and DOX induced apoptotic death in addition to necrosis in the respective organs which was very effectively blocked by GSPE. Since AAP, AMI and DOX undergo biotransformation and are known to produce damaging radicals in vivo, the protection by GSPE may be linked to both inhibition of metabolism and/or detoxification of cytotoxic radicals. In addition, its' presumed contribution to DNA repair may be another important attribute, which played a role in the chemoprevention process. Additionally, this may have been the first report on AMI-induced apoptotic death in the lung tissue. Taken together, these events undoubtedly establish GSPE's abundant bioavailability, and the power to defend multiple target organs from toxic assaults induced by structurally diverse and functionally different entities in vivo.","[{'text': 'necrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 108, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 124, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'lung toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 143, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D008171'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 161, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 181, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'IH636 grape seed proanthocyanidin extract', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 207, 'end': 248, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'Grape seed extract', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 250, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'proanthocyanidins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 293, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D044945'}, {'text': 'IH636 grape seed proanthocyanidin extract', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 477, 'end': 518, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 520, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 552, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 565, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 581, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 593, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'lung toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 606, 'end': 619, 'mesh': 'D008171'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 625, 'end': 636, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 638, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 651, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 773, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 852, 'end': 856, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 930, 'end': 933, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 955, 'end': 958, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1303, 'end': 1307, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1329, 'end': 1332, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1345, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'tissue damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1576, 'end': 1589, 'mesh': 'D017695'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1675, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1714, 'end': 1718, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1955, 'end': 1958, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1960, 'end': 1963, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1968, 'end': 1971, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2011, 'end': 2019, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2083, 'end': 2087, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2095, 'end': 2098, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2100, 'end': 2103, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2108, 'end': 2111, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2208, 'end': 2212, 'mesh': 'C511402'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2500, 'end': 2503, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'GSPE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2599, 'end': 2603, 'mesh': 'C511402'}]" +230,11642480,Palpebral twitching in a depressed adolescent on citalopram.,Current estimates suggest that between 0.4% and 8.3% of children and adolescents are affected by major depression.

On the 13th day, antinociceptive effects were assessed using a model of inflammatory nociception, pain-induced functional impairment model, and the charcoal meal test was used to evaluate the intestinal transit. Simultaneous administration of morphine with metamizol resulted in a markedly antinociceptive potentiation and an increasing of the duration of action after a single (298+/-7 vs. 139+/-36 units area (ua); P<0.001) and repeated administration (280+/-17 vs. 131+/-22 ua; P<0.001). Antinociceptive effect of morphine was reduced in chronically treated rats (39+/-10 vs. 18+/-5 au) while the combination-induced antinociception was remained similar as an acute treatment (298+/-7 vs. 280+/-17 au). Acute antinociceptive effects of the combination were partially prevented by 3.2 mg/kg naloxone s.c. (P<0.05), suggesting the partial involvement of the opioidergic system in the synergism observed. In independent groups, morphine inhibited the intestinal transit in 48+/-4% and 38+/-4% after acute and chronic treatment, respectively, suggesting that tolerance did not develop to the constipating effects. The combination inhibited intestinal transit similar to that produced by morphine regardless of the time of treatment, suggesting that metamizol did not potentiate morphine-induced constipation. These findings show a significant interaction between morphine and metamizol in chronically treated rats, suggesting that this combination could be useful for the treatment of chronic pain.","[{'text': 'Metamizol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D004177'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'constipating', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 137, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 195, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'metamizol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D004177'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 400, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'charcoal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 450, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'D002606'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 553, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'metamizol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D004177'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 819, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1103, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'constipating', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1393, 'end': 1405, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1488, 'end': 1496, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'metamizol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1550, 'end': 1559, 'mesh': 'D004177'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1587, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1608, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1664, 'end': 1672, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'metamizol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1677, 'end': 1686, 'mesh': 'D004177'}, {'text': 'chronic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1786, 'end': 1798, 'mesh': 'D059350'}]" +232,12084448,Ifosfamide encephalopathy presenting with asterixis.,"CNS toxic effects of the antineoplastic agent ifosfamide (IFX) are frequent and include a variety of neurological symptoms that can limit drug use.

He was awake, revealed no changes of mental status and at rest there were no further motor symptoms. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging and extensive laboratory studies failed to reveal structural lesions of the brain and metabolic abnormalities. An electroencephalogram showed continuous, generalized irregular slowing with admixed periodic triphasic waves indicating symptomatic encephalopathy. The administration of ifosfamide was discontinued and within 12 h the asterixis resolved completely. In the patient described, the presence of asterixis during infusion of ifosfamide, normal laboratory findings and imaging studies and the resolution of symptoms following the discontinuation of the drug suggest that negative myoclonus is associated with the use of IFX.","[{'text': 'Ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 11, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'asterixis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D020820'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 99, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'IFX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 280, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 347, 'end': 357, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'plasmacytoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 362, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D010954'}, {'text': 'structural lesions of the brain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 562, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'metabolic abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 598, 'end': 621, 'mesh': 'D008659'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 757, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 795, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'asterixis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 843, 'end': 852, 'mesh': 'D020820'}, {'text': 'asterixis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 916, 'end': 925, 'mesh': 'D020820'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 945, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'IFX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D007069'}]" +233,12684739,Sub-chronic low dose gamma-vinyl GABA (vigabatrin) inhibits cocaine-induced increases in nucleus accumbens dopamine.,"RATIONALE: gamma-Vinyl GABA (GVG) irreversibly inhibits GABA-transaminase. This non-receptor mediated inhibition requires de novo synthesis for restoration of functional GABA catabolism. OBJECTIVES: Given its preclinical success for treating substance abuse and the increased risk of visual field defects (VFD) associated with cumulative lifetime exposure, we explored the effects of sub-chronic low dose GVG on cocaine-induced increases in nucleus accumbens (NAcc) dopamine (DA). METHODS: Using in vivo microdialysis, we compared acute exposure (450 mg/kg) to an identical sub-chronic exposure (150 mg/kg per day for 3 days), followed by 1- or 3-day washout. Finally, we examined the low dose of 150 mg/kg (50 mg/kg per day) using a similar washout period. RESULTS: Sub-chronic GVG exposure inhibited the effect of cocaine for 3 days, which exceeded in magnitude and duration the identical acute dose. CONCLUSIONS: Sub-chronic low dose GVG potentiates and extends the inhibition of cocaine-induced increases in dopamine, effectively reducing cumulative exposures and the risk for VFDS.","[{'text': 'gamma-vinyl GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 107, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'gamma-Vinyl GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 128, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'GVG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 146, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 287, 'end': 291, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'substance abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 359, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D019966'}, {'text': 'visual field defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 401, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'D005128'}, {'text': 'VFD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 423, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D005128'}, {'text': 'GVG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 522, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 529, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 593, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'GVG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 896, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 933, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'GVG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1054, 'end': 1057, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +234,12716030,Amount of bleeding and hematoma size in the collagenase-induced intracerebral hemorrhage rat model.,"The aggravated risk on intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) with drugs used for stroke patients should be estimated carefully.

In ICH intrastriatally induced by 0.014-unit, 0.070-unit, and 0.350-unit collagenase, the amount of bleeding was measured using a hemoglobin assay developed in the present study and was compared with the morphologically determined hematoma volume. The blood amounts and hematoma volumes were significantly correlated, and the hematoma induced by 0.014-unit collagenase was adequate to detect ICH deterioration. In ICH induction using 0.014-unit collagenase, heparin enhanced the hematoma volume 3.4-fold over that seen in control ICH animals and the bleeding 7.6-fold.

Rats received subcutaneous injections of 17beta-estradiol (2 microg/rat) or oil once daily for four consecutive days. SE was induced 20 h following the second injection and terminated 3 h later. The extent of silver-stained CA3 and CA1 hippocampal neurons was evaluated 2 days after SE. 17beta-Estradiol did not alter the onset of first clonus in ovariectomized rats but accelerated it in males. 17beta-Estradiol reduced the argyrophilic neurons in the CA1 and CA3-C sectors of ovariectomized rats.

METHODS: We used computerized pharmacy records to identify all adult psychiatric inpatients treated with clozapine (1995-96), reviewed their medical records to score incidence and severity of delirium, and tested associations with potential risk factors. RESULTS: Subjects (n = 139) were 72 women and 67 men, aged 40.8 +/- 12.1 years, hospitalized for 24.9 +/- 23.3 days, and given clozapine, gradually increased to an average daily dose of 282 +/- 203 mg (3.45 +/- 2.45 mg/kg) for 18.9 +/- 16.4 days. Delirium was diagnosed in 14 (10.1 % incidence, or 1.48 cases/person-years of exposure); 71.4 % of cases were moderate or severe. Associated factors were co-treatment with other centrally antimuscarinic agents, poor clinical outcome, older age, and longer hospitalization (by 17.5 days, increasing cost); sex, diagnosis or medical co-morbidity, and daily clozapine dose, which fell with age, were unrelated. CONCLUSIONS: Delirium was found in 10 % of clozapine-treated inpatients, particularly in older patients exposed to other central anticholinergics. Delirium was inconsistently recognized clinically in milder cases and was associated with increased length-of-stay and higher costs, and inferior clinical outcome.","[{'text': 'Delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 119, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 135, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'psychiatric', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 255, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 291, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 378, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'Delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 688, 'end': 696, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'Delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1109, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1148, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'Delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1243, 'end': 1251, 'mesh': 'D003693'}]" +237,14513889,Ketoconazole-induced neurologic sequelae.,"A 77-y-old patient developed weakness of extremities, legs paralysis, dysarthria and tremor 1 h after ingestion of 200 mg ketoconazole for the first time in his life.

Both the trigeminal and the cranial parasympathetic systems may be involved in mediating these dysfunctions. An experimental model was developed in the rat to measure changes in lacrimation and intracranial blood flow following noxious chemical stimulation of facial mucosa. Blood flow was monitored in arteries of the exposed cranial dura mater and the parietal cortex using laser Doppler flowmetry. Capsaicin (0.01-1 mm) applied to oral or nasal mucosa induced increases in dural and cortical blood flow and provoked lacrimation. These responses were blocked by systemic pre-administration of hexamethonium chloride (20 mg/kg). The evoked increases in dural blood flow were also abolished by topical pre-administration of atropine (1 mm) and [Lys1, Pro2,5, Arg3,4, Tyr6]-VIP (0.1 mm), a vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) antagonist, onto the exposed dura mater. We conclude that noxious stimulation of facial mucosa increases intracranial blood flow and lacrimation via a trigemino-parasympathetic reflex. The blood flow responses seem to be mediated by the release of acetylcholine and VIP within the meninges.

Population responses in granule cells of the dentate gyrus were examined in transverse slices of the ventral hippocampus from pilocarpine-treated and untreated mice. In Mg(2+)-free bathing medium containing bicuculline, conditions designed to increase excitability in the slices, electrical stimulation of the hilus resulted in a single population spike in granule cells from control mice and pilocarpine-treated mice that did not experience SE. In SE survivors, similar stimulation resulted in a population spike followed, at a variable latency, by negative DC shifts and repetitive afterdischarges of 3-60 s duration, which were blocked by ionotropic glutamate receptor antagonists. Focal glutamate photostimulation of the granule cell layer at sites distant from the recording pipette resulted in population responses of 1-30 s duration in slices from SE survivors but not other groups. These data support the hypothesis that SE-induced mossy fiber sprouting and synaptic reorganization are relevant characteristics of seizure development in these murine strains, resembling rat models of human temporal lobe epilepsy.","[{'text': 'temporal lobe epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D004833'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 113, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 218, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'Mg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 522, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D008274'}, {'text': 'bicuculline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D001640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 795, 'end': 797, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 802, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1015, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1053, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1208, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1382, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'temporal lobe epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1473, 'mesh': 'D004833'}]" +240,15275829,The alpha3 and beta4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunits are necessary for nicotine-induced seizures and hypolocomotion in mice.,"Binding of nicotine to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) elicits a series of dose-dependent behaviors that go from altered exploration, sedation, and tremors, to seizures and death. nAChRs are pentameric ion channels usually composed of alpha and beta subunits. A gene cluster comprises the alpha3, alpha5 and beta4 subunits, which coassemble to form functional receptors. We examined the role of the beta4 subunits in nicotine-induced seizures and hypolocomotion in beta4 homozygous null (beta4 -/-) and alpha3 heterozygous (+/-) mice. beta4 -/- mice were less sensitive to the effects of nicotine both at low doses, measured as decreased exploration in an open field, and at high doses, measured as sensitivity to nicotine-induced seizures. Using in situ hybridization probes for the alpha3 and alpha5 subunits, we showed that alpha5 mRNA levels are unchanged, whereas alpha3 mRNA levels are selectively decreased in the mitral cell layer of the olfactory bulb, and the inferior and the superior colliculus of beta4 -/- brains. alpha3 +/- mice were partially resistant to nicotine-induced seizures when compared to wild-type littermates. mRNA levels for the alpha5 and the beta4 subunits were unchanged in alpha3 +/- brains. Together, these results suggest that the beta4 and the alpha3 subunits are mediators of nicotine-induced seizures and hypolocomotion.","[{'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 98, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'hypolocomotion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 146, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 168, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'tremors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 294, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 306, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 563, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 580, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'hypolocomotion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 593, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 734, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 860, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 877, 'end': 885, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1218, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1235, 'end': 1243, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1467, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1476, 'end': 1484, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'hypolocomotion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1503, 'mesh': 'D006948'}]" +241,15602202,Recurrent acute interstitial nephritis induced by azithromycin.,"A 14-year-old girl is reported with recurrent, azithromycin-induced, acute interstitial nephritis.

We consider drug-induced cerebral vasculitis as the most likely cause of recurrent ischaemic strokes in the absence of any pathological findings during the diagnostic work-up.

METHODS: All patients with a diagnosed cerebral haemorrhage at three hospitals during the period 2000-2002 were identified. Medical records were studied retrospectively to evaluate whether warfarin and warfarin-drug interactions could have caused the cerebral haemorrhage. The proportion of possibly avoidable cases due to drug interactions was estimated. RESULTS: Among 593 patients with cerebral haemorrhage, 59 (10%) were assessed as related to warfarin treatment. This imply an incidence of 1.7/100,000 treatment years. Of the 59 cases, 26 (44%) had a fatal outcome, compared to 136 (25%) among the non-warfarin patients (p < 0.01). A warfarin-drug interaction could have contributed to the haemorrhage in 24 (41%) of the warfarin patients and in 7 of these (12%) the bleeding complication was considered being possible to avoid. CONCLUSIONS: Warfarin-induced cerebral haemorrhages are a major clinical problem with a high fatality rate. Almost half of the cases was related to a warfarin-drug interaction.

METHODS AND RESULTS: The present study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind comparison of iopamidol and iodixanol in patients with chronic kidney disease (estimated glomerular filtration rate, 20 to 59 mL/min) who underwent cardiac angiography or percutaneous coronary interventions. Serum creatinine (SCr) levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate were assessed at baseline and 2 to 5 days after receiving medications. The primary outcome was a postdose SCr increase > or = 0.5 mg/dL (44.2 micromol/L) over baseline. Secondary outcomes were a postdose SCr increase > or = 25%, a postdose estimated glomerular filtration rate decrease of > or = 25%, and the mean peak change in SCr. In 414 patients, contrast volume, presence of diabetes mellitus, use of N-acetylcysteine, mean baseline SCr, and estimated glomerular filtration rate were comparable in the 2 groups. SCr increases > or = 0.5 mg/dL occurred in 4.4% (9 of 204 patients) after iopamidol and 6.7% (14 of 210 patients) after iodixanol (P=0.39), whereas rates of SCr increases > or = 25% were 9.8% and 12.4%, respectively (P=0.44). In patients with diabetes, SCr increases > or = 0.5 mg/dL were 5.1% (4 of 78 patients) with iopamidol and 13.0% (12 of 92 patients) with iodixanol (P=0.11), whereas SCr increases > or = 25% were 10.3% and 15.2%, respectively (P=0.37).

In the present study, we investigated whether maltolyl p-coumarate could improve cognitive decline in scopolamine-injected rats and in amyloid beta peptide(1-42)-infused rats. Maltolyl p-coumarate was found to attenuate cognitive deficits in both rat models using passive avoidance test and to reduce apoptotic cell death observed in the hippocampus of the amyloid beta peptide(1-42)-infused rats. We also examined the neuroprotective effects of maltolyl p-coumarate in vitro using SH-SY5Y cells. Cells were pretreated with maltolyl p-coumarate, before exposed to amyloid beta peptide(1-42), glutamate or H2O2. We found that maltolyl p-coumarate significantly decreased apoptotic cell death and reduced reactive oxygen species, cytochrome c release, and caspase 3 activation. Taking these in vitro and in vivo results together, our study suggests that maltolyl p-coumarate is a potentially effective candidate against Alzheimer's disease that is characterized by wide spread neuronal death and progressive decline of cognitive function.","[{'text': 'maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': 'cognitive deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'dementia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D003704'}, {'text': 'maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 260, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': 'maltol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 306, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'C008316'}, {'text': 'p-coumaric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 317, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'C032171'}, {'text': 'maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 380, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': 'cognitive decline', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 415, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 436, 'end': 447, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'amyloid beta peptide(1-42)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'C544092'}, {'text': 'Maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 510, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': 'cognitive deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 554, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'amyloid beta peptide(1-42)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 691, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'C544092'}, {'text': 'maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 780, 'end': 800, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': 'maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 858, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': 'amyloid beta peptide(1-42)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 898, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'C544092'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'H2O2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D006861'}, {'text': 'maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 959, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': 'maltolyl p-coumarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'C524754'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'neuronal death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'decline of cognitive function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': 'D003072'}]" +249,17639754,Interaction between warfarin and levofloxacin: case series.,"Warfarin is the most widely used oral anticoagulant and is indicated for many clinical conditions.

Thirty-five lamivudine-na ve HBV infected patients with or without HIV co-infection were studied: 15 chronic HBV mono-infected patients and 20 HBV-HIV co-infected patients. The latter group was further sub-divided into 13 occult HBV (HBsAg-negative) and 7 overt HBV (HBsAg- positive) patients. HBsAg, anti-HBs, anti-HBc, and anti-HIV 1/2 were determined as part of routine diagnosis using Axsym assays (Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, IL). Serum samples were PCR amplified with HBV reverse transcriptase (RT) primers, followed by direct sequencing across the tyrosine-methionine-aspartate-aspartate (YMDD) motif of the major catalytic region in the C domain of the HBV RT enzyme. HBV viral load was performed with Amplicor HBV Monitor test v2.0 (Roche Diagnostics, Penzberg, Germany). HBV lamivudine-resistant strains were detected in 3 of 15 mono-infected chronic hepatitis B patients and 10 of 20 HBV-HIV co-infected patients. To the best of our knowledge, this constitutes the first report of HBV lamivudine-resistant strains in therapy-na ve HBV-HIV co-infected patients. The HBV viral loads for mono-infected and co-infected patients ranged from 3.32 x 10(2) to 3.82 x 10(7) and <200 to 4.40 x 10(3) copies/ml, respectively. It remains to be seen whether such pre-existing antiviral mutations could result in widespread emergence of HBV resistant strains when lamivudine-containing highly active antiretroviral (ARV) treatment (HAART) regimens become widely applied in South Africa, as this is likely to have potential implications in the management of HBV-HIV co-infected patients.","[{'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'HIV co-infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 279, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 300, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 344, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 355, 'end': 357, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 392, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 490, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'HBV infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 497, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'HIV co-infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 535, 'end': 551, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'HBV mono-infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 577, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 702, 'end': 707, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 740, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 762, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'methionine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1040, 'end': 1050, 'mesh': 'D008715'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1060, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1070, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1337, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1472, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1514, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1838, 'end': 1848, 'mesh': 'D019259'}]" +251,18221780,Sex differences in NMDA antagonist enhancement of morphine antihyperalgesia in a capsaicin model of persistent pain: comparisons to two models of acute pain.,"In acute pain models, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists enhance the antinociceptive effects of morphine to a greater extent in males than females. The purpose of this investigation was to extend these findings to a persistent pain model which could be distinguished from acute pain models on the basis of the nociceptive fibers activated, neurochemical substrates, and duration of the nociceptive stimulus. To this end, persistent hyperalgesia was induced by administration of capsaicin in the tail of gonadally intact F344 rats, following which the tail was immersed in a mildly noxious thermal stimulus, and tail-withdrawal latencies measured. For comparison, tests were conducted in two acute pain models, the hotplate and warm water tail-withdrawal procedures. In males, the non-competitive NMDA antagonist dextromethorphan enhanced the antihyperalgesic effect of low to moderate doses of morphine in a dose-and time-dependent manner. Across the doses and pretreatment times examined, enhancement was not observed in females. Enhancement of morphine antinociception by dextromethorphan was seen in both males and females in the acute pain models, with the magnitude of this effect being greater in males. These findings demonstrate a sexually-dimorphic interaction between NMDA antagonists and morphine in a persistent pain model that can be distinguished from those observed in acute pain models.","[{'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'acute pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 146, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D059787'}, {'text': 'acute pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 161, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D059787'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 202, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 259, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 390, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'acute pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 435, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D059787'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 595, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 641, 'end': 650, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'acute pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 854, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D059787'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 959, 'end': 963, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'dextromethorphan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 975, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D003915'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1057, 'end': 1065, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'dextromethorphan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D003915'}, {'text': 'acute pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D059787'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1441, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1462, 'end': 1470, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'acute pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1547, 'end': 1557, 'mesh': 'D059787'}]" +252,18261172,Development of proteinuria after switch to sirolimus-based immunosuppression in long-term cardiac transplant patients.,"Calcineurin-inhibitor therapy can lead to renal dysfunction in heart transplantation patients. The novel immunosuppressive (IS) drug sirolmus (Srl) lacks nephrotoxic effects; however, proteinuria associated with Srl has been reported following renal transplantation. In cardiac transplantation, the incidence of proteinuria associated with Srl is unknown. In this study, long-term cardiac transplant patients were switched from cyclosporine to Srl-based IS. Concomitant IS consisted of mycophenolate mofetil +/- steroids. Proteinuria increased significantly from a median of 0.13 g/day (range 0-5.7) preswitch to 0.23 g/day (0-9.88) at 24 months postswitch (p = 0.0024). Before the switch, 11.5% of patients had high-grade proteinuria (>1.0 g/day); this increased to 22.9% postswitch (p = 0.006). ACE inhibitor and angiotensin-releasing blocker (ARB) therapy reduced proteinuria development. Patients without proteinuria had increased renal function (median 42.5 vs. 64.1, p = 0.25), whereas patients who developed high-grade proteinuria showed decreased renal function at the end of follow-up (median 39.6 vs. 29.2, p = 0.125).

Cardona et al. [Nat. Neurosci. 9 (2006), 917] recently identified the microglial-specific fractalkine receptor (CX3CR1) as an important mediator of MPTP-induced neurodegeneration of DA neurons. Because the CNS damage caused by METH and MPTP is highly selective for the DA neuronal system in mouse models of neurotoxicity, we hypothesized that the CX3CR1 plays a role in METH-induced neurotoxicity and microglial activation. Mice in which the CX3CR1 gene has been deleted and replaced with a cDNA encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) were treated with METH and examined for striatal neurotoxicity. METH depleted DA, caused microglial activation, and increased body temperature in CX3CR1 knockout mice to the same extent and over the same time course seen in wild-type controls. The effects of METH in CX3CR1 knockout mice were not gender-dependent and did not extend beyond the striatum. Striatal microglia expressing eGFP constitutively show morphological changes after METH that are characteristic of activation. This response was restricted to the striatum and contrasted sharply with unresponsive eGFP-microglia in surrounding brain areas that are not damaged by METH. We conclude from these studies that CX3CR1 signaling does not modulate METH neurotoxicity or microglial activation. Furthermore, it appears that striatal-resident microglia respond to METH with an activation cascade and then return to a surveying state without undergoing apoptosis or migration.","[{'text': 'Methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 24, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'Methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 116, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 137, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 147, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 157, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 466, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'neurodegeneration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 479, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 500, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'CNS damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 524, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 549, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 587, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 625, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 688, 'end': 692, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 701, 'end': 714, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 883, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 914, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 929, 'end': 933, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 943, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1575, 'end': 1579, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1580, 'end': 1593, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1688, 'end': 1692, 'mesh': 'D008694'}]" +255,18503483,Recovery of tacrolimus-associated brachial neuritis after conversion to everolimus in a pediatric renal transplant recipient--case report and review of the literature.,"TAC has been shown to be a potent immunosuppressive agent for solid organ transplantation in pediatrics.

Course following treatment modifications.,"Valvular heart abnormalities have been reported in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) treated with pergolide. However, the incidence and severity of these abnormalities vary from study to study and their course after drug withdrawal has not been systematically assessed. OBJECTIVES: To estimate the frequency and severity of valvular heart abnormality and its possible reversibility after drug withdrawal in a case-control study. METHODS: All PD patients in the Amiens area treated with pergolide were invited to attend a cardiologic assessment including transthoracic echocardiography. Thirty PD patients participated in the study. A second echocardiography was performed (median interval: 13 months) after pergolide withdrawal (n=10 patients). Controls were age- and sex-matched non-PD patients referred to the cardiology department. RESULTS: Compared to controls, aortic regurgitation (OR: 3.1; 95% IC: 1.1-8.8) and mitral regurgitation (OR: 10.7; 95% IC: 2.1-53) were more frequent in PD patients (tricuspid: NS). The number of affected valves (n=2.4+/-0.7) and the sum of regurgitation grades (n=2.8+/-1.09) were higher (p=0.008 and p=0.006, respectively) in the pergolide group. Severity of regurgitation was not correlated with pergolide cumulative dose. A restrictive pattern of valvular regurgitation, suggestive of the role of pergolide, was observed in 12/30 (40%) patients including two with heart failure. Pergolide was discontinued in 10 patients with valvular heart disease, resulting in a lower regurgitation grade (p=0.01) at the second transthoracic echocardiography and the two patients with heart failure returned to nearly normal clinical examination. This study supports the high frequency of restrictive valve regurgitation in PD patients treated with pergolide and reveals that a significant improvement is usual when the treatment is converted to non-ergot dopamine agonists.","[{'text': 'Valvular heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'Valvular heart abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 126, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 191, 'end': 210, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 229, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'valvular heart abnormality', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 455, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 573, 'end': 575, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 617, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 724, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 915, 'end': 917, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'aortic regurgitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 997, 'end': 1017, 'mesh': 'D001022'}, {'text': 'mitral regurgitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1119, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1307, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1365, 'end': 1374, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'valvular regurgitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1417, 'end': 1439, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1467, 'end': 1476, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1534, 'end': 1547, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'Pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1549, 'end': 1558, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'valvular heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1618, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1741, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'valve regurgitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1857, 'end': 1876, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1880, 'end': 1882, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1905, 'end': 1914, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2012, 'end': 2020, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +257,18726058,Adverse effects of topical papaverine on auditory nerve function.,"BACKGROUND: Papaverine hydrochloride is a direct-acting vasodilator used to manage vasospasm during various neurosurgical operations. Transient cranial nerve dysfunction has been described in a few cases with topical papaverine. This study supports previous reports and provides neurophysiological evidence of an adverse effect on the auditory nerve. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective review of 70 consecutive microvascular decompression operations and studied those patients who received topical papaverine for vasospasm. Topical papaverine was used as a direct therapeutic action to manage vasospasm in a total of 11 patients. The timing of papaverine application and ongoing operative events was reviewed relative to changes in neurophysiological recordings. Brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) were routinely used to monitor cochlear nerve function during these operations. FINDINGS: A temporal relationship was found between topical papaverine and BAEP changes leading to complete waveform loss. The average temporal delay between papaverine and the onset of an adverse BAEP change was 5 min. In 10 of 11 patients, BAEP waves II/III-V completely disappeared within 2 to 25 min after papaverine. Eight of these 10 patients had complete loss of BAEP waveforms within 10 min. One patient showed no recovery of later waves and a delayed profound sensorineural hearing loss. The average recovery time of BAEP waveforms to pre-papaverine baseline values was 39 min. CONCLUSIONS: Topical papaverine for the treatment of vasospasm was associated with the onset of a transient disturbance in neurophysiological function of the ascending auditory brainstem pathway. The complete disappearance of BAEP waveforms with a consistent temporal delay suggests a possible adverse effect on the proximal eighth nerve. Recommendations to avoid potential cranial nerve deficits from papaverine are provided.","[{'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'Papaverine hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'vasospasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 149, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D020301'}, {'text': 'cranial nerve dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D003389'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 283, 'end': 293, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 567, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'vasospasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 582, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D020301'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 601, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'vasospasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 662, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D020301'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 713, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1017, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1115, 'end': 1125, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1267, 'end': 1277, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'sensorineural hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1426, 'end': 1452, 'mesh': 'D006319'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1505, 'end': 1515, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1565, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D010208'}, {'text': 'vasospasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1597, 'end': 1606, 'mesh': 'D020301'}, {'text': 'adverse effect on the proximal eighth nerve', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1838, 'end': 1881, 'mesh': 'D000160'}, {'text': 'cranial nerve deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1918, 'end': 1940, 'mesh': 'D003389'}, {'text': 'papaverine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1946, 'end': 1956, 'mesh': 'D010208'}]" +258,18754075,Massive proteinuria and acute renal failure after oral bisphosphonate (alendronate) administration in a patient with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis.,"A 61-year-old Japanese man with nephrotic syndrome due to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis was initially responding well to steroid therapy.

The aldosterone-sensitive serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase SGK1 has been shown to participate in the stimulation of ENaC and to mediate renal fibrosis following mineralocorticoid and salt excess. The present study was performed to elucidate the role of SGK1 in the volume retention and fibrosis during nephrotic syndrome. To this end, doxorubicin (15 mug/g body wt) was injected intravenously into gene-targeted mice lacking SGK1 (sgk1(-/-)) and their wild-type littermates (sgk1(+/+)). Doxorubicin treatment resulted in heavy proteinuria (>100 mg protein/mg crea) in 15/44 of sgk1(+/+) and 15/44 of sgk1(-/-) mice leading to severe nephrotic syndrome with ascites, lipidemia, and hypoalbuminemia in both genotypes. Plasma aldosterone levels increased in nephrotic mice of both genotypes and was followed by increased SGK1 protein expression in sgk1(+/+) mice. Urinary sodium excretion reached signficantly lower values in sgk1(+/+) mice (15 +/- 5 mumol/mg crea) than in sgk1(-/-) mice (35 +/- 5 mumol/mg crea) and was associated with a significantly higher body weight gain in sgk1(+/+) compared with sgk1(-/-) mice (+6.6 +/- 0.7 vs. +4.1 +/- 0.8 g). During the course of nephrotic syndrome, serum urea concentrations increased significantly faster in sgk1(-/-) mice than in sgk1(+/+) mice leading to uremia and a reduced median survival in sgk1(-/-) mice (29 vs. 40 days in sgk1(+/+) mice). In conclusion, gene-targeted mice lacking SGK1 showed blunted volume retention, yet were not protected against renal fibrosis during experimental nephrotic syndrome.","[{'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 68, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 88, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 108, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'volume retention', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 172, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D016055'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 213, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 361, 'end': 369, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'volume retention', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 484, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D016055'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 521, 'end': 539, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 565, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 706, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 746, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 852, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'ascites', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 876, 'end': 883, 'mesh': 'D001201'}, {'text': 'lipidemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 885, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D006949'}, {'text': 'hypoalbuminemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 900, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D034141'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 942, 'end': 953, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 974, 'end': 983, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1088, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1392, 'end': 1410, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1418, 'end': 1422, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'uremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1521, 'end': 1527, 'mesh': 'D014511'}, {'text': 'volume retention', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1674, 'end': 1690, 'mesh': 'D016055'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1729, 'end': 1737, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1758, 'end': 1776, 'mesh': 'D009404'}]" +260,19299179,Severe and long lasting cholestasis after high-dose co-trimoxazole treatment for Pneumocystis pneumonia in HIV-infected patients--a report of two cases.,"Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP), a common opportunistic infection in HIV-infected individuals, is generally treated with high doses of co-trimoxazole.

To date there has been little documentation of clinically significant proteinuria linked with the use of sirolimus. We have encountered several patients who developed substantial proteinuria associated with sirolimus use. In each patient, the close temporal association between the commencement of sirolimus therapy and proteinuria implicated sirolimus as the most likely etiology of the proteinuria. METHODS: We analyzed the clinical and laboratory information available for all 119 patients transplanted at the Washington Hospital Center between 1999-2003 for whom sirolimus was a component of their immunosuppressant regimen. In these patients, the magnitude of proteinuria was assessed on morning urine samples by turbidometric measurement or random urine protein:creatinine ratios, an estimate of grams of proteinuria/day. Laboratory results were compared between prior, during and following sirolimus use. RESULTS: Twenty-eight patients (24%) developed increased proteinuria from baseline during their post-transplantation course. In 21 patients an alternative cause of proteinuria was either obvious or insufficient data was available to be conclusive. In 7 of the 28 patients there was a striking temporal association between the initiation of sirolimus and the development of nephrotic-range proteinuria. Proteinuria correlated most strongly with sirolimus therapy when compared to other demographic and clinical variables. In most patients, discontinuation of sirolimus resulted in a decrease, but not resolution, of proteinuria. CONCLUSIONS: Sirolimus induces or aggravates pre-existing proteinuria in an unpredictable subset of renal allograft recipients. Proteinuria may improve, but does not resolve, when sirolimus is withdrawn.","[{'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 67, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 121, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 348, 'end': 359, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 383, 'end': 392, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 457, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 485, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 598, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 666, 'end': 677, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 845, 'end': 854, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 943, 'end': 954, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1046, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1175, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1258, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1365, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1572, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1590, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'Proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1592, 'end': 1603, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1634, 'end': 1643, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1748, 'end': 1757, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1805, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1831, 'end': 1840, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1876, 'end': 1887, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'Proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1946, 'end': 1957, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1998, 'end': 2007, 'mesh': 'D020123'}]" +262,19729346,Comparative cognitive and subjective side effects of immediate-release oxycodone in healthy middle-aged and older adults.,"This study measured the objective and subjective neurocognitive effects of a single 10-mg dose of immediate-release oxycodone in healthy, older (> 65 years), and middle-aged (35 to 55 years) adults who were not suffering from chronic or significant daily pain. Seventy-one participants completed 2 separate study days and were blind to medication condition (placebo, 10-mg oxycodone). Plasma oxycodone concentration peaked between 60 and 90 minutes postdose (P < .01) and pupil size, an indication of physiological effects of the medication, peaked at approximately 90 to 120 minutes postdose (P < .01). Significant declines in simple and sustained attention, working memory, and verbal memory were observed at 1 hour postdose compared to baseline for both age groups with a trend toward return to baseline by 5 hours postdose. For almost all cognitive measures, there were no medication by age-interaction effects, which indicates that the 2 age groups exhibited similar responses to the medication challenge. This study suggests that for healthy older adults who are not suffering from chronic pain, neurocognitive and pharmacodynamic changes in response to a 10-mg dose of immediate-release oxycodone are similar to those observed for middle-aged adults. PERSPECTIVE: Study findings indicate that the metabolism, neurocognitive effects, and physical side effects of oral oxycodone are similar for healthy middle-aged and older adults. Therefore, clinicians should not avoid prescribing oral opioids to older adults based on the belief that older adults are at higher risk for side effects than younger adults.","[{'text': 'oxycodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 71, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'D010098'}, {'text': 'oxycodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 238, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D010098'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 377, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'oxycodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 495, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D010098'}, {'text': 'oxycodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D010098'}, {'text': 'chronic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D059350'}, {'text': 'oxycodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1316, 'end': 1325, 'mesh': 'D010098'}, {'text': 'oxycodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1496, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D010098'}]" +263,20080983,Normalizing effects of modafinil on sleep in chronic cocaine users.,"OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of morning-dosed modafinil on sleep and daytime sleepiness in chronic cocaine users. METHOD: Twenty cocaine-dependent participants were randomly assigned to receive modafinil, 400 mg (N=10), or placebo (N=10) every morning at 7:30 a.m. for 16 days in an inpatient, double-blind randomized trial. Participants underwent polysomnographic sleep recordings on days 1 to 3, 7 to 9, and 14 to 16 (first, second, and third weeks of abstinence). The Multiple Sleep Latency Test was performed at 11:30 a.m., 2:00 p.m., and 4:30 p.m. on days 2, 8, and 15. For comparison of sleep architecture variables, 12 healthy comparison participants underwent a single night of experimental polysomnography that followed 1 night of accommodation polysomnography. RESULTS: Progressive abstinence from cocaine was associated with worsening of all measured polysomnographic sleep outcomes. Compared with placebo, modafinil decreased nighttime sleep latency and increased slow-wave sleep time in cocaine-dependent participants. The effect of modafinil interacted with the abstinence week and was associated with longer total sleep time and shorter REM sleep latency in the third week of abstinence. Comparison of slow-wave sleep time, total sleep time, and sleep latency in cocaine-dependent and healthy participants revealed a normalizing effect of modafinil in cocaine-dependent participants. Modafinil was associated with increased daytime sleep latency, as measured by the Multiple Sleep Latency Test, and a nearly significant decrease in subjective daytime sleepiness. CONCLUSIONS: Morning-dosed modafinil promotes nocturnal sleep, normalizes sleep architecture, and decreases daytime sleepiness in abstinent cocaine users. These effects may be relevant in the treatment of cocaine dependence.","[{'text': 'modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 53, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 157, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'daytime sleepiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 210, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 240, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 305, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 919, 'end': 926, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1029, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1118, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1389, 'end': 1396, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1478, 'end': 1485, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'Modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1510, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'daytime sleepiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1669, 'end': 1687, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'modafinil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1716, 'end': 1725, 'mesh': 'C048833'}, {'text': 'daytime sleepiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1797, 'end': 1815, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1829, 'end': 1836, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1894, 'end': 1901, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +264,20520283,Efficacy and safety of asenapine in a placebo- and haloperidol-controlled trial in patients with acute exacerbation of schizophrenia.,"Asenapine is approved by the Food and Drugs Administration in adults for acute treatment of schizophrenia or of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder with or without psychotic features.

With last observations carried forward (LOCF), mean Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale total score reductions from baseline to endpoint were significantly greater with asenapine at 5 mg BID (-16.2) and haloperidol (-15.4) than placebo (-10.7; both P < 0.05); using mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM), changes at day 42 were significantly greater with asenapine at 5 and 10 mg BID (-21.3 and -19.4, respectively) and haloperidol (-20.0) than placebo (-14.6; all P < 0.05). On the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale positive subscale, all treatments were superior to placebo with LOCF and MMRM; asenapine at 5 mg BID was superior to placebo on the negative subscale with MMRM and on the general psychopathology subscale with LOCF and MMRM.

Using puromycin aminonucleoside nephrosis (PAN) rats, we studied early ultrastructural and permeability changes in relation to the expression of the podocyte-associated molecules nephrin, a-actinin, dendrin, and plekhh2, the last two of which were only recently discovered in podocytes. METHODS: Using immune stainings, semiquantitative measurement was performed under the electron microscope. Permeability was assessed using isolated kidney perfusion with tracers. Possible effects of ACE inhibition were tested. RESULTS: By day 2, some patchy foot process effacement, but no proteinuria, appeared. The amount of nephrin was reduced in both diseased and normal areas. The other proteins showed few changes, which were limited to diseased areas. By day 4, foot process effacement was complete and proteinuria appeared in parallel with signs of size barrier damage. Nephrin decreased further, while dendrin and plekhh2 also decreased but a-actinin remained unchanged. ACE inhibition had no significant protective effect. CONCLUSIONS: PAN glomeruli already showed significant pathology by day 4, despite relatively mild proteinuria. This was preceded by altered nephrin expression, supporting its pivotal role in podocyte morphology. The novel proteins dendrin and plekhh2 were both reduced, suggesting roles in PAN, whereas a-actinin was unchanged.","[{'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 109, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 135, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 245, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 271, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 816, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1047, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1357, 'end': 1368, 'mesh': 'D011507'}]" +266,19820426,Twin preterm neonates with cardiac toxicity related to lopinavir/ritonavir therapy.,"We report twin neonates who were born prematurely at 32 weeks of gestation to a mother with human immunodeficiency virus infection.

Glucocorticoid-induced hypertension (GC-HT) in the rat is associated with nitric oxide-redox imbalance. 2. We studied the role of xanthine oxidase (XO), which is implicated in the production of reactive oxygen species, in dexamethasone-induced hypertension (dex-HT). 3. Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into four treatment groups: saline, dexamethasone (dex), allopurinol plus saline, and allopurinol plus dex. 4. Systolic blood pressures (SBP) and bodyweights were recorded each alternate day. Thymus weight was used as a marker of glucocorticoid activity, and serum urate to assess XO inhibition. 5. Dex increased SBP (110 +/- 2-126 +/- 3 mmHg; P < 0.001) and decreased thymus (P < 0.001) and bodyweights (P"" < 0.01). Allopurinol decreased serum urate from 76 +/- 5 to 30 +/- 3 micromol/L (P < 0.001) in saline and from 84 +/- 13 to 28 +/- 2 micromol/L in dex-treated (P < 0.01) groups. 6. Allopurinol did not prevent dex-HT. This, together with our previous findings that allopurinol failed to prevent adrenocorticotrophic hormone induced hypertension, suggests that XO activity is not a major determinant of GC-HT in the rat.","[{'text': 'xanthine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 8, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D019820'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 50, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 98, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'HT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 115, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 161, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'xanthine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 205, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D019820'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 297, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'HT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 435, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 450, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'allopurinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D000493'}, {'text': 'allopurinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 485, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D000493'}, {'text': 'dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 502, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'urate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 664, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'Dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 698, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'increased SBP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 702, 'end': 715, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'decreased thymus (P < 0.001) and bodyweights', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 758, 'end': 802, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'Allopurinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 816, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D000493'}, {'text': 'urate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 844, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Allopurinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D000493'}, {'text': 'dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'HT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'allopurinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'D000493'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'HT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D006973'}]" +270,9351491,Extrapyramidal side effects with risperidone and haloperidol at comparable D2 receptor occupancy levels.,"Risperidone is an antipsychotic drug with high affinity at dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT2 receptors. Previous clinical studies have proposed that risperidone's pharmacologic profile may produce improved efficacy for negative psychotic symptoms and decreased propensity for extrapyramidal side effects; features shared by so-called 'atypical' neuroleptics. To determine if routine risperidone treatment is associated with a unique degree of D2 receptor occupancy and pattern of clinical effects, we used [123I]IBZM SPECT to determine D2 occupancy in subjects treated with routine clinical doses of risperidone (n = 12) or haloperidol (n = 7). Both risperidone and haloperidol produced D2 occupancy levels between approximately 60 and 90% at standard clinical doses. There was no significant difference between occupancy levels obtained with haloperidol or risperidone. Drug-induced parkinsonism was observed in subjects treated with risperidone (42%) and haloperidol (29%) and was observed at occupancy levels above 60%. Based on these observations, it is concluded that 5-HT2 blockade obtained with risperidone at D2 occupancy rates of 60% and above does not appear to protect against the risk for extrapyramidal side effects.","[{'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'Risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 105, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 164, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'serotonin 5-HT2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D044348'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 252, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'psychotic symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 331, 'end': 349, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 486, 'end': 497, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 703, 'end': 714, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 727, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 753, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 769, 'end': 780, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 946, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 961, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'Drug-induced parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 974, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1060, 'end': 1071, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'D018967'}]" +271,18752389,Simvastatin-ezetimibe-induced hepatic failure necessitating liver transplantation.,"Abstract Serum aminotransferase elevations are a commonly known adverse effect of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitor (statin) therapy. However, hepatotoxic events have not been widely published with ezetimibe or the combination agent simvastatin-ezetimibe. We describe a 70-year-old Hispanic woman who developed fulminant hepatic failure necessitating liver transplantation 10 weeks after conversion from simvastatin 40 mg/day to simvastatin 10 mg-ezetimibe 40 mg/day. The patient's lipid panel had been maintained with simvastatin for 18 months before the conversion without evidence of hepatotoxicity. A routine laboratory work-up 10 weeks after conversion revealed elevated serum aminotransferase levels. Simvastatinezetimibe and escitalopram (which she was taking for depression) were discontinued, and other potential causes of hepatotoxicity were excluded. A repeat work-up revealed further elevations in aminotransferase levels, and liver biopsy revealed evidence of moderate-to-severe drug toxicity. She underwent liver transplantation with an uneventful postoperative course. Her aminotransferase levels returned to normal by postoperative day 23, and her 2-year follow-up showed no adverse events. Ezetimibe undergoes extensive glucuronidation by uridine diphosphate glucoronosyltransferases (UGT) in the intestine and liver and may have inhibited the glucuronidation of simvastatin hydroxy acid, resulting in increased simvastatin exposure and subsequent hepatotoxicity. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of simvastatin-ezetimibe-induced liver failure that resulted in liver transplantation. We postulate that the mechanism of the simvastatinezetimibe-induced hepatotoxicity is the increased simvastatin exposure by ezetimibe inhibition of UGT enzymes. Clinicians should be aware of potential hepatotoxicity with simvastatin-ezetimibe especially in elderly patients and should carefully monitor serum aminotransferase levels when starting therapy and titrating the dosage.","[{'text': 'Simvastatin-ezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'C492458'}, {'text': 'hepatic failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 30, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D017093'}, {'text': 'statin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 250, 'end': 261, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 305, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'C108606'}, {'text': 'simvastatin-ezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 340, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'C492458'}, {'text': 'fulminant hepatic failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 418, 'end': 443, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 511, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'simvastatin 10 mg-ezetimibe 40 mg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 536, 'end': 569, 'mesh': 'C492458'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 626, 'end': 637, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 694, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'Simvastatinezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 814, 'end': 834, 'mesh': 'C492458'}, {'text': 'escitalopram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'D015283'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 878, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 939, 'end': 953, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'drug toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1112, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Ezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1314, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'C108606'}, {'text': 'uridine diphosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1363, 'end': 1382, 'mesh': 'D014530'}, {'text': 'simvastatin hydroxy acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1511, 'mesh': 'C532833'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1547, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1572, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'simvastatin-ezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1639, 'end': 1660, 'mesh': 'C492458'}, {'text': 'liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1669, 'end': 1682, 'mesh': 'D017093'}, {'text': 'simvastatinezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1762, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'C492458'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1791, 'end': 1805, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1823, 'end': 1834, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'ezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1847, 'end': 1856, 'mesh': 'C108606'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1924, 'end': 1938, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'simvastatin-ezetimibe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1944, 'end': 1965, 'mesh': 'C492458'}]" +272,20098969,"Oral manifestations of ""meth mouth"": a case report.","AIM: The aim of the documentation of this clinical case is to make clinicians aware of ""meth mouth"" and the medical risks associated with this serious condition. BACKGROUND: Methamphetamine is a very addictive, powerful stimulant that increases wakefulness and physical activity and can produce other effects such as cardiac dysrhythmias, hypertension, hallucinations, and violent behavior. Dental patients abusing methamphetamine can present with poor oral hygiene, xerostomia, rampant caries (""meth mouth""), and excessive tooth wear. Oral rehabilitation of patients using methamphetamine can be challenging. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 30-year-old Caucasian woman presented with dental pain, bad breath, and self-reported poor esthetics. A comprehensive examination including her medical history, panoramic radiograph, and intraoral examination revealed 19 carious lesions, which is not very common for a healthy adult. She reported her use of methamphetamine for five years and had not experienced any major carious episodes before she started using the drug. SUMMARY: The patient's medical and dental histories along with radiographic and clinical findings lead to a diagnosis of ""meth mouth."" Although three different dental treatment modalities (either conventional or implant-supported) have been offered to the patient since August 2007, the patient has yet to initiate any treatment. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This clinical case showing oral manifestations of meth mouth was presented to help dental practitioners recognize and manage patients who may be abusing methamphetamines. Dental practitioners also may be skeptical about the reliability of appointment keeping by these patients, as they frequently miss their appointments without reasonable justification.","[{'text': 'meth mouth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 24, 'end': 34, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'meth mouth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 140, 'end': 150, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'Methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 369, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 391, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 405, 'end': 419, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'violent behavior', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 425, 'end': 441, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 467, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'xerostomia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 519, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D014987'}, {'text': 'caries', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 539, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D003731'}, {'text': 'meth mouth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 548, 'end': 558, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'tooth wear', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 576, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'D057085'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 626, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 732, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'bad breath', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 738, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D012120'}, {'text': 'carious lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 903, 'end': 918, 'mesh': 'D003731'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 990, 'end': 1005, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'carious episodes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1071, 'mesh': 'D003731'}, {'text': 'meth mouth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1239, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'meth mouth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1510, 'end': 1520, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'methamphetamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1613, 'end': 1629, 'mesh': 'D008694'}]" +273,9653867,Thyroxine abuse: an unusual case of thyrotoxicosis in pregnancy.,"Eating disorders and the associated behavioural problems and drug abuse are uncommon in pregnancy.

In this study, we examined the roles of lipopolysaccharide, a pro-inflammatory and inflammatory factor, treatment in modulating the methamphetamine-induced nigrostriatal dopamine neurotoxicity. Lipopolysaccharide pretreatment did not affect the basal body temperature or methamphetamine-elicited hyperthermia three days later. Such systemic lipopolysaccharide treatment mitigated methamphetamine-induced striatal dopamine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid depletions in a dose-dependent manner. As the most potent dose (1 mg/kg) of lipopolysaccharide was administered two weeks, one day before or after the methamphetamine dosing regimen, methamphetamine-induced striatal dopamine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid depletions remained unaltered. Moreover, systemic lipopolysaccharide pretreatment (1 mg/kg) attenuated local methamphetamine infusion-produced dopamine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid depletions in the striatum, indicating that the protective effect of lipopolysaccharide is less likely due to interrupted peripheral distribution or metabolism of methamphetamine. We concluded a critical time window for systemic lipopolysaccharide pretreatment in exerting effective protection against methamphetamine-induced nigrostriatal dopamine neurotoxicity.","[{'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 15, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopaminergic terminal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 209, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 279, 'end': 297, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 371, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 409, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 418, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'Lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 510, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 535, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 619, 'end': 634, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 660, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': '3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 665, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D015102'}, {'text': 'lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 772, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 847, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 879, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 912, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': '3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 925, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D015102'}, {'text': 'lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1080, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': '3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D015102'}, {'text': 'lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1212, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1306, 'end': 1321, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'lipopolysaccharide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1372, 'end': 1390, 'mesh': 'D008070'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1460, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1492, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D020258'}]" +275,2559236,Effect of converting enzyme inhibition on the course of adriamycin-induced nephropathy.,"The effect of the converting enzyme inhibitor (CEI) enalapril was assessed in Munich-Wistar rats with established adriamycin nephrosis. Rats were given a single dose of adriamycin and one month later divided into four groups matched for albuminuria, blood pressure, and plasma albumin concentration. Groups 1 and 3 remained untreated while groups 2 and 4 received enalapril. Groups 1 and 2 underwent micropuncture studies after 10 days. These short-term studies showed that enalapril reduced arterial blood pressure (101 +/- 2 vs. 124 +/- 3 mm Hg, group 2 vs. 1, P less than 0.05) and glomerular capillary pressure (54 +/- 1 vs. 61 +/- 2 mm Hg, P less than 0.05) without reducing albuminuria (617 +/- 50 vs. 570 +/- 47 mg/day) or GFR (1.03 +/- 0.04 vs. 1.04 +/- 0.11 ml/min). Groups 3 and 4 were studied at four and at six months to assess the effect of enalapril on progression of renal injury in adriamycin nephrosis. Chronic enalapril treatment reduced blood pressure without reducing albuminuria in group 4. Untreated group 3 rats exhibited a progressive reduction in GFR (0.35 +/- 0.08 ml/min at 4 months, 0.27 +/- 0.07 ml/min at 6 months). Enalapril treatment blunted but did not prevent reduction in GFR in group 4 (0.86 +/- 0.15 ml/min at 4 months, 0.69 +/- 0.13 ml/min at 6 months, both P less than 0.05 vs. group 3). Reduction in GFR was associated with the development of glomerular sclerosis in both treated and untreated rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 75, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 202, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 213, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 257, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'albuminuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 325, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D000419'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 452, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 562, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'albuminuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 768, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D000419'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 942, 'end': 951, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 970, 'end': 982, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 986, 'end': 996, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 997, 'end': 1006, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'albuminuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D000419'}, {'text': 'Enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1243, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'glomerular sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1471, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +276,21029050,Butyrylcholinesterase gene mutations in patients with prolonged apnea after succinylcholine for electroconvulsive therapy.,"BACKGROUND: patients undergoing electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) often receive succinylcholine as part of the anesthetic procedure. The duration of action may be prolonged in patients with genetic variants of the butyrylcholinesterase enzyme (BChE), the most common being the K- and the A-variants. The aim of the study was to assess the clinical significance of genetic variants in butyrylcholinesterase gene (BCHE) in patients with a suspected prolonged duration of action of succinylcholine after ECT. METHODS: a total of 13 patients were referred to the Danish Cholinesterase Research Unit after ECT during 38 months. We determined the BChE activity and the BCHE genotype using molecular genetic methods, the duration of apnea, time to sufficient spontaneous ventilation and whether neuromuscular monitoring was used. The duration of apnea was compared with published data on normal subjects. RESULTS: in 11 patients, mutations were found in the BCHE gene, the K-variant being the most frequent. The duration of apnea was 5-15 min compared with 3-5.3 min from the literature. Severe distress was noted in the recovery phase in two patients. Neuromuscular monitoring was used in two patients. CONCLUSION: eleven of 13 patients with a prolonged duration of action of succinylcholine had mutations in BCHE, indicating that this is the possible reason for a prolonged period of apnea. We recommend objective neuromuscular monitoring during the first ECT.","[{'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 64, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 76, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 201, 'end': 216, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 600, 'end': 615, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 847, 'end': 852, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 960, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1406, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1500, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D001049'}]" +277,10901305,Ketamine sedation for the reduction of children's fractures in the emergency department.,"BACKGROUND: There recently has been a resurgence in the utilization of ketamine, a unique anesthetic, for emergency-department procedures requiring sedation. The purpose of the present study was to examine the safety and efficacy of ketamine for sedation in the treatment of children's fractures in the emergency department. METHODS: One hundred and fourteen children (average age, 5.3 years; range, twelve months to ten years and ten months) who underwent closed reduction of an isolated fracture or dislocation in the emergency department at a level-I trauma center were prospectively evaluated. Ketamine hydrochloride was administered intravenously (at a dose of two milligrams per kilogram of body weight) in ninety-nine of the patients and intramuscularly (at a dose of four milligrams per kilogram of body weight) in the other fifteen. A board-certified emergency physician skilled in airway management supervised administration of the anesthetic, and the patients were monitored by a registered nurse. Any pain during the reduction was rated by the orthopaedic surgeon treating the patient according to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (CHEOPS). RESULTS: The average time from intravenous administration of ketamine to manipulation of the fracture or dislocation was one minute and thirty-six seconds (range, twenty seconds to five minutes), and the average time from intramuscular administration to manipulation was four minutes and forty-two seconds (range, sixty seconds to fifteen minutes). The average score according to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale was 6.4 points (range, 5 to 10 points), reflecting minimal or no pain during fracture reduction. Adequate fracture reduction was obtained in 111 of the children. Ninety-nine percent (sixty-eight) of the sixty-nine parents present during the reduction were pleased with the sedation and would allow it to be used again in a similar situation. Patency of the airway and independent respiration were maintained in all of the patients. Blood pressure and heart rate remained stable. Minor side effects included nausea (thirteen patients), emesis (eight of the thirteen patients with nausea), clumsiness (evident as ataxic movements in ten patients), and dysphoric reaction (one patient). No long-term sequelae were noted, and no patients had hallucinations or nightmares. CONCLUSIONS: Ketamine reliably, safely, and quickly provided adequate sedation to effectively facilitate the reduction of children's fractures in the emergency department at our institution. Ketamine should only be used in an environment such as the emergency department, where proper one-on-one monitoring is used and board-certified physicians skilled in airway management are directly involved in the care of the patient.","[{'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 50, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 322, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 375, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'fracture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 578, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'dislocation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 590, 'end': 601, 'mesh': 'D004204'}, {'text': 'trauma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 643, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D014947'}, {'text': 'Ketamine hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 687, 'end': 709, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1102, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1242, 'end': 1246, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1332, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'fracture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1364, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'dislocation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1379, 'mesh': 'D004204'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1686, 'end': 1690, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1762, 'end': 1766, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'fracture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1774, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'fracture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1803, 'end': 1811, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2204, 'end': 2210, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'emesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2232, 'end': 2238, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2276, 'end': 2282, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'clumsiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2285, 'end': 2295, 'mesh': 'D001259'}, {'text': 'ataxic movements', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2308, 'end': 2324, 'mesh': 'D001259'}, {'text': 'dysphoric reaction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2347, 'end': 2365, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2435, 'end': 2449, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2478, 'end': 2486, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2598, 'end': 2607, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2656, 'end': 2664, 'mesh': 'D007649'}]" +278,19037603,Prophylactic use of lamivudine with chronic immunosuppressive therapy for rheumatologic disorders.,"The objective of this study was to report our experience concerning the effectiveness of the prophylactic administration of lamivudine in hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBs Ag) positive patients with rheumatologic disease. From June 2004 to October 2006, 11 HBs Ag positive patients with rheumatologic diseases, who were on both immunosuppressive and prophylactic lamivudine therapies, were retrospectively assessed. Liver function tests, hepatitis B virus (HBV) serologic markers, and HBV DNA levels of the patients during follow-up were obtained from hospital file records. Eleven patients (six male) with median age 47 years (range 27-73), median disease duration 50 months (range 9-178) and median follow-up period of patients 13.8 months (range 5-27) were enrolled in this study. Lamivudine therapy was started 3-7 days prior to immunosuppressive therapy in all patients. Baseline, liver function tests were elevated in two patients (fourth patient: ALT:122 IU/l, AST:111 IU/l, tenth patient:ALT:294 IU/l, AST:274 IU/l, with minimal changes in the liver biopsy in both). Shortly after treatment their tests normalized and during follow-up period none of the patients had abnormal liver function tests. In four patients HBV DNA levels were higher than normal at baseline. Two of these normalized and the others increased later. In three additional patients, HBV DNA levels were increased during follow-up. None of the patients had significant clinical sings of HBV activation. Lamivudine was well tolerated and was continued in all patients. Prophylactic administration of lamivudine in patients who required immunosuppressive therapy seems to be safe, well tolerated and effective in preventing HBV reactivation.","[{'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'rheumatologic disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 74, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D012216'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B virus surface antigen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 237, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'HBs Ag', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 272, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'rheumatologic disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 303, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D012216'}, {'text': 'HBs Ag', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 361, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'rheumatologic diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 391, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D012216'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 467, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 542, 'end': 553, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'Lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 888, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'abnormal liver function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1279, 'end': 1302, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'Lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1584, 'end': 1594, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1680, 'end': 1690, 'mesh': 'D019259'}]" +279,20084309,Safety of transesophageal echocardiography in adults: study in a multidisciplinary hospital.,"BACKGROUND: TEE is a semi-invasive tool broadly used and its utilization associated to sedatives drugs might to affect the procedure safety. OBJECTIVE: to analyze aspects of TEE safety associated to the use of Midazolan (MZ) and Flumazenil (FL) and the influence of the clinical variables on the event rate. METHOD: prospective study with 137 patients that underwent TEE with MZ associated to moderate sedation. We analyzed the following events: complications related with the topical anesthesia, with MZ use and with the procedure. Uni- and multivariate analyses were used to test the influence of the clinical variables: age, sex, stroke, myocardiopathy (MP), duration of the test, mitral regurgitation (MR) and the MZ dose. RESULTS: All patients (65+/-16 yrs; 58% males) finished the examination. The mean doses of MZ and FL were 4.3+/-1.9 mg and 0.28+/-0.2 mg, respectively. The duration of the examination and the mean ejection fraction (EF) were 16.4+/-6.1 minutes and 60+/-9%, respectively. Mild hypoxia (SO2<90%) was the most common event (11 patients); 3 patients (2%) presented transient hypoxia due to upper airway obstruction by probe introduction and 8 (5.8%) due to hypoxia caused by MZ use. Transient hypotension (SAP<90mmHg) occurred in 1 patient (0.7%). The multivariate analysis showed that severe MR, MP (EF<45%) and high doses of MZ (>5mg) were associated with events (p<0.001). The EF was 40%, in the group with MP and 44% in the group with severe MR and it can be a factor associated with clinical events in the last group. CONCLUSION: TEE with sedation presents a low rate of events. There were no severe events and there was no need to interrupt the examinations.","[{'text': 'Midazolan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 303, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'MZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 314, 'end': 316, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'Flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 322, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'FL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 334, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'MZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 471, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'MZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 595, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 726, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'myocardiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 734, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'MP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 750, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'mitral regurgitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 777, 'end': 797, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 799, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'MZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 811, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'MZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 911, 'end': 913, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'FL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 918, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'hypoxia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1103, 'mesh': 'D000860'}, {'text': 'hypoxia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D000860'}, {'text': 'airway obstruction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1212, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D000402'}, {'text': 'hypoxia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1280, 'mesh': 'D000860'}, {'text': 'MZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1291, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1320, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1411, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'MP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1415, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'MZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1443, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'MP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1528, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1564, 'mesh': 'D008944'}]" +280,8231633,Effects of calcium channel blockers on bupivacaine-induced toxicity.,"The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of calcium channel blockers on bupivacaine-induced acute toxicity.

The convulsant activity of bupivacaine was not significantly modified but calcium channel blockers decreased the time of latency to obtain bupivacaine-induced convulsions; this effect was less pronounced with bepridil.","[{'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 59, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 159, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 250, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 261, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D015764'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 510, 'end': 521, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 722, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 775, 'end': 786, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 822, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 887, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 907, 'end': 918, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 957, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D015764'}]" +281,10091617,Selegiline-induced postural hypotension in Parkinson's disease: a longitudinal study on the effects of drug withdrawal.,"OBJECTIVES: The United Kingdom Parkinson's Disease Research Group (UKPDRG) trial found an increased mortality in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) randomized to receive 10 mg selegiline per day and L-dopa compared with those taking L-dopa alone. Recently, we found that therapy with selegiline and L-dopa was associated with selective systolic orthostatic hypotension which was abolished by withdrawal of selegiline. This unwanted effect on postural blood pressure was not the result of underlying autonomic failure. The aims of this study were to confirm our previous findings in a separate cohort of patients and to determine the time course of the cardiovascular consequences of stopping selegiline in the expectation that this might shed light on the mechanisms by which the drug causes orthostatic hypotension. METHODS: The cardiovascular responses to standing and head-up tilt were studied repeatedly in PD patients receiving selegiline and as the drug was withdrawn. RESULTS: Head-up tilt caused systolic orthostatic hypotension which was marked in six of 20 PD patients on selegiline, one of whom lost consciousness with unrecordable blood pressures. A lesser degree of orthostatic hypotension occurred with standing. Orthostatic hypotension was ameliorated 4 days after withdrawal of selegiline and totally abolished 7 days after discontinuation of the drug. Stopping selegiline also significantly reduced the supine systolic and diastolic blood pressures consistent with a previously undescribed supine pressor action. CONCLUSION: This study confirms our previous finding that selegiline in combination with L-dopa is associated with selective orthostatic hypotension. The possibilities that these cardiovascular findings might be the result of non-selective inhibition of monoamine oxidase or of amphetamine and metamphetamine are discussed.","[{'text': 'Selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'postural hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 43, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's Disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 151, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 247, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 268, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 300, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 323, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 357, 'end': 363, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 423, 'end': 429, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'systolic orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 460, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 530, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 816, 'end': 826, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 916, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1057, 'end': 1067, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'systolic orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1128, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1303, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'Orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1374, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1418, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1502, 'end': 1512, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'reduced the supine systolic and diastolic blood pressures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1532, 'end': 1589, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'selegiline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1712, 'end': 1722, 'mesh': 'D012642'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1743, 'end': 1749, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1779, 'end': 1802, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1932, 'end': 1943, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'metamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1948, 'end': 1962, 'mesh': 'D008694'}]" +282,19269743,Explicit episodic memory for sensory-discriminative components of capsaicin-induced pain: immediate and delayed ratings.,"Pain memory is thought to affect future pain sensitivity and thus contribute to clinical pain conditions. Systematic investigations of the human capacity to remember sensory features of experimental pain are sparse. In order to address long-term pain memory, nine healthy male volunteers received intradermal injections of three doses of capsaicin (0.05, 1 and 20 microg, separated by 15 min breaks), each given three times in a balanced design across three sessions at one week intervals. Pain rating was performed using a computerized visual analogue scale (0-100) digitized at 1/s, either immediately online or one hour or one day after injection. Subjects also recalled their pains one week later. Capsaicin injection reliably induced a dose-dependent flare (p<0.001) without any difference within or across sessions. The strong burning pain decayed exponentially within a few minutes. Subjects were able to reliably discriminate pain magnitude and duration across capsaicin doses (both p<0.001), regardless of whether first-time ratings were requested immediately, after one hour or after one day. Pain recall after one week was similarly precise (magnitude: p<0.01, duration: p<0.05). Correlation with rating recall after one week was best when first-time ratings were requested as late as one day after injection (R(2)=0.79) indicating that both rating retrievals utilized similar memory traces. These results indicate a reliable memory for magnitude and duration of experimentally induced pain. The data further suggest that the consolidation of this memory is an important interim stage, and may take up to one day.","[{'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 66, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 84, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 121, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 161, 'end': 165, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 320, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 367, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 459, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 611, 'end': 615, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pains', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 801, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'Capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 962, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1059, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1618, 'end': 1622, 'mesh': 'D010146'}]" +283,3070035,Reversibility of captopril-induced renal insufficiency after prolonged use in an unusual case of renovascular hypertension.,"We report a case of severe hypertension with an occluded renal artery to a solitary kidney, who developed sudden deterioration of renal function following treatment with captopril.

This study tested the hypothesis that activation of nociceptive muscle afferent fibers would be linked to an increased excitability of the human jaw-stretch reflex and whether this process would be sensitive to length and velocity of the stretch. Capsaicin (10 micro g) was injected into the masseter muscle to induce pain in 11 healthy volunteers. Short-latency reflex responses were evoked in the masseter and temporalis muscles by a stretch device with different velocities and displacements before, during, and after the pain. The normalized reflex amplitude increased with an increase in velocity at a given displacement, but remained constant with different displacements at a given velocity. The normalized reflex amplitude was significantly higher during pain, but only at faster stretches in the painful muscle. Increased sensitivity of the fusimotor system during acute muscle pain could be one likely mechanism to explain the findings.","[{'text': 'Capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'muscle pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 18, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'temporomandibular disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D013705'}, {'text': 'muscle pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 198, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'nociceptive muscle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 311, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'Capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 506, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 577, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 784, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'painful muscle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1064, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'muscle pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D063806'}]" +286,18951540,Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for levodopa-induced dyskinesias in Parkinson's disease.,"In a placebo-controlled, single-blinded, crossover study, we assessed the effect of ""real"" repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) versus ""sham"" rTMS (placebo) on peak dose dyskinesias in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Ten patients with PD and prominent dyskinesias had rTMS (1,800 pulses; 1 Hz rate) delivered over the motor cortex for 4 consecutive days twice, once real stimuli and once sham stimulation were used; evaluations were done at the baseline and 1 day after the end of each of the treatment series. Direct comparison between sham and real rTMS effects showed no significant difference in clinician-assessed dyskinesia severity. However, comparison with the baseline showed small but significant reduction in dyskinesia severity following real rTMS but not placebo. The major effect was on dystonia subscore. Similarly, in patient diaries, although both treatments caused reduction in subjective dyskinesia scores during the days of intervention, the effect was sustained for 3 days after the intervention for the real rTMS only. Following rTMS, no side effects and no adverse effects on motor function and PD symptoms were noted. The results suggest the existence of residual beneficial clinical aftereffects of consecutive daily applications of low-frequency rTMS on dyskinesias in PD.

The first case involved a 59-year-old man who used Dormex, which contains hydrogen cyanamide, without protection after consuming a large amount of alcohol during a meal. In less than 1 hour after the ingestion of alcohol, he developed malaise with flushing of the face, tachycardia, and dyspnea. Manifestations regressed spontaneously under surveillance in the hospital. The second case occurred in a 55-year-old farmer following cutaneous contact with Dormex. Five hours after exposure, he developed disulfiram-like syndrome with flushing, tachycardia, and arterial hypotension after consuming three glasses of wine. The patient recovered spontaneously in 3 hours under surveillance in the hospital. These cases confirm the necessity of avoiding alcohol consumption as recommended in the instructions for use of Dormex and of preventing cutaneous contact during use.","[{'text': 'Disulfiram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D004221'}, {'text': 'hydrogen cyanamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D003484'}, {'text': 'Hydrogen cyanamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D003484'}, {'text': 'aldehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 300, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D000079'}, {'text': 'acetaldehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 338, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D000079'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 371, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'disulfiram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 441, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D004221'}, {'text': 'hydrogen cyanamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D003484'}, {'text': 'Dormex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 572, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D003484'}, {'text': 'hydrogen cyanamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 595, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D003484'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 668, 'end': 675, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 734, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'flushing of the face', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 769, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D005483'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 791, 'end': 802, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'dyspnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 808, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D004417'}, {'text': 'Dormex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 974, 'end': 980, 'mesh': 'D003484'}, {'text': 'disulfiram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D004221'}, {'text': 'flushing', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1052, 'end': 1060, 'mesh': 'D005483'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1062, 'end': 1073, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'arterial hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1079, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'Dormex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D003484'}]" +288,9660111,Repeated trimipramine induces dopamine D2/D3 and alpha1-adrenergic up-regulation.,"Trimipramine (TRI), which shows a clinical antidepressant activity, is chemically related to imipramine but does not inhibit the reuptake of noradrenaline and 5-hydroxytryptamine, nor does it induce beta-adrenergic down-regulation. The mechanism of its antidepressant activity is still unknown. The aim of the present study was to find out whether TRI given repeatedly was able to induce adaptive changes in the dopaminergic and alpha1-adrenergic systems, demonstrated by us previously for various antidepressants. TRI was given to male Wistar rats and male Albino Swiss mice perorally twice daily for 14 days. In the acute experiment TRI (given i.p.) does not antagonize the reserpine hypothermia in mice and does not potentiate the 5-hydroxytryptophan head twitches in rats. TRI given repeatedly to rats increases the locomotor hyperactivity induced by d-amphetamine, quinpirole and (+)-7-hydroxy-dipropyloaminotetralin (dopamine D2 and D3 effects). The stereotypies induced by d-amphetamine or apomorphine are not potentiated by TRI. It increases the behaviour stimulation evoked by phenylephrine (given intraventricularly) in rats, evaluated in the open field test as well as the aggressiveness evoked by clonidine in mice, both these effects being mediated by an alpha1-adrenergic receptor. It may be concluded that, like other tricyclic antidepressants studied previously, TRI given repeatedly increases the responsiveness of brain dopamine D2 and D3 (locomotor activity but not stereotypy) as well as alpha1-adrenergic receptors to their agonists. A question arises whether the reuptake inhibition is of any importance to the adaptive changes induced by repeated antidepressants, suggested to be responsible for the antidepressant activity.","[{'text': 'trimipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 9, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'Trimipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'TRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 139, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'imipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 175, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D007099'}, {'text': 'noradrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': '5-hydroxytryptamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 241, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 335, 'end': 349, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'TRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 430, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'antidepressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'TRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'TRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 717, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 758, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 768, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': '5-hydroxytryptophan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 816, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D006916'}, {'text': 'TRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 859, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 912, 'end': 925, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'd-amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 937, 'end': 950, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'quinpirole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 952, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D019257'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1005, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'd-amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1062, 'end': 1075, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1079, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'TRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1114, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'phenylephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1181, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'aggressiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1266, 'end': 1280, 'mesh': 'D010554'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1291, 'end': 1300, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'antidepressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1425, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'TRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'D014299'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1520, 'end': 1528, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'antidepressants', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1752, 'end': 1767, 'mesh': 'D000928'}, {'text': 'antidepressant', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1805, 'end': 1819, 'mesh': 'D000928'}]" +289,11431197,Ranitidine-induced acute interstitial nephritis in a cadaveric renal allograft.,"Ranitidine frequently is used for preventing peptic ulceration after renal transplantation.

Although MHb formers are generally applied as treatments for CN poisoning, it has been proposed that a stable, long-acting MHb former could serve as a CN pretreatment. Using this rationale, the 8-aminoquinoline WR242511, a potent long-lasting MHb former in rodents and beagle dogs, was studied in the rhesus monkey for advanced development as a potential CN pretreatment. METHODS: In this study, WR242511 was administered intravenously (IV) in 2 female and 4 male rhesus monkeys in doses of 3.5 and/or 7.0 mg/kg; a single male also received WR242511 orally (PO) at 7.0 mg/kg. Health status and MHb levels were monitored following exposure. RESULTS: The selected doses of WR242511, which produced significant methemoglobinemia in beagle dogs in earlier studies conducted elsewhere, produced very little MHb (mean < 2.0%) in the rhesus monkey. Furthermore, transient hemoglobinuria was noted approximately 60 minutes postinjection of WR242511 (3.5 or 7.0 mg/kg), and 2 lethalities occurred (one IV and one PO) following the 7.0 mg/kg dose. Myoglobinuria was also observed following the 7.0 mg/kg dose. Histopathology analyses in the 2 animals that died revealed liver and kidney toxicity, with greater severity in the orally-treated animal. CONCLUSIONS: These data demonstrate direct and/or indirect drug-induced toxicity. It is concluded that WR242511 should not be pursued as a pretreatment for CN poisoning unless the anti-CN characteristics of this compound can be successfully dissociated from those producing undesirable toxicity.","[{'text': 'Toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': '8-aminoquinoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'C080436'}, {'text': '8-[(4-amino-l-methylbutyl)amino]- 5-(l-hexyloxy)-6-methoxy-4-methylquinoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 76, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'WR242511', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 258, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 332, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D011041'}, {'text': '8-aminoquinoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 462, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'C080436'}, {'text': 'WR242511', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 487, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'WR242511', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 664, 'end': 672, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'WR242511', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 809, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'WR242511', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'methemoglobinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 976, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'D008708'}, {'text': 'hemoglobinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'D006456'}, {'text': 'WR242511', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'Myoglobinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1306, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D009212'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1587, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'WR242511', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1610, 'end': 1618, 'mesh': 'C068820'}, {'text': 'poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1666, 'end': 1675, 'mesh': 'D011041'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1793, 'end': 1801, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +295,8372922,Neuroplasticity of the adult primate auditory cortex following cochlear hearing loss.,"Tonotopic organization is an essential feature of the primary auditory area (A1) of primate cortex.

The purpose of this study was to determine if changes occur in this tonotopic organization following cochlear hearing loss. Under anesthesia, the superior temporal gyrus of adult macaque monkeys was exposed, and the tonotopic organization of A1 was mapped using conventional microelectrode recording techniques. Following recovery, the monkeys were selectively deafened for high frequencies using kanamycin and furosemide. The actual frequencies deafened were determined by the loss of tone-burst elicited auditory brainstem responses. Three months after deafening, A1 was remapped. Postmortem cytoarchitectural features identifying A1 were correlated with the electrophysiologic data.

A new method using a commercially available, pen-shaped laser pointer was developed. Aim of the study was to determine sensitivity, reproducibility, reference values and the agreement with a questionnaire. METHODS: Tremor was measured using a laser pointer technique. To determine sensitivity we assessed tremor in 44 patients with obstructive lung disease after administration of cumulative doses of salbutamol. Subjects were asked to aim at the centre of a target, subdivided in concentric circles, from 5 m distance. The circle in which the participant succeeded to aim was recorded in millimetres radius. In another series of measurements, reproducibility and reference values of the tremor was assessed in 65 healthy subjects in three sessions, at 9 a.m., 4 p.m. and 9 a.m., respectively, 1 week later. Postural tremor was measured with the arm horizontally outstretched rest tremor with the arm supported by an armrest and finally tremor was measured after holding a 2-kg weight until exhaustion. Inter-observer variability was measured in a series of 10 healthy subjects. Tremor was measured simultaneously by two independent observers. RESULTS: Salbutamol significantly increased tremor severity in patients in a dose-dependent way. Within healthy adults no age-dependency could be found (b = 0.262 mm/year; P = 0.72). There was no agreement between the questionnaire and tremor severity (r = 0.093; P = 0.53). Postural tremor showed no significant difference between the first and third session (P = 0.07). Support of the arm decreased tremor severity, exhaustion increased tremor severity significantly. A good agreement was found between two independent observers (interclass correlation coefficient 0.72).

DESIGN: Retrospective analysis of a randomized phase II trial. SETTING: National Institutes of Health clinical research center. PATIENTS: Seventy men, aged 50-80 years, with advanced androgen-independent prostate cancer. INTERVENTION: Each patient received either intravenous docetaxel 30 mg/m2/week for 3 consecutive weeks, followed by 1 week off, or the combination of continuous oral thalidomide 200 mg every evening plus the same docetaxel regimen. This 4-week cycle was repeated until there was evidence of excessive toxicity or disease progression. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: None of 23 patients who received docetaxel alone developed VTE, whereas 9 of 47 patients (19%) who received docetaxel plus thalidomide developed VTE (p=0.025). CONCLUSION: The addition of thalidomide to docetaxel in the treatment of prostate cancer significantly increases the frequency of VTE. Clinicians should be aware of this potential complication when adding thalidomide to chemotherapeutic regimens.","[{'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'docetaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'C067311'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 84, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 145, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 208, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 232, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 284, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'docetaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 322, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'C067311'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 361, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 578, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'docetaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 650, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'C067311'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 761, 'end': 772, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'docetaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 808, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'C067311'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 896, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'docetaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 993, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'C067311'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'docetaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1077, 'mesh': 'C067311'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1083, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1105, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'docetaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'C067311'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1193, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1336, 'mesh': 'D013792'}]" +299,6634932,"Sublingual absorption of the quaternary ammonium antiarrhythmic agent, UM-272.","UM-272 (N,N-dimethylpropranolol), a quaternary antiarrhythmic agent, was administered sublingually to dogs with ouabain-induced ventricular tachycardias.

However, no study in the literature has reported the use of a statistical model to analyze the variables that influence outcome. METHODS: A review of admissions during a 6-year period revealed 14 patients with cocaine-related aneurysms. This group was compared with a control group of 135 patients with ruptured aneurysms and no history of cocaine abuse. Age at presentation, time of ictus after intoxication, Hunt and Hess grade of subarachnoid hemorrhage, size of the aneurysm, location of the aneurysm, and the Glasgow Outcome Scale score were assessed and compared. RESULTS: The patients in the study group were significantly younger than the patients in the control group (P < 0.002). In patients in the study group, all aneurysms were located in the anterior circulation. The majority of these aneurysms were smaller than those of the control group (8 +/- 6.08 mm versus 11 +/- 5.4 mm; P = 0.05). The differences in mortality and morbidity between the two groups were not significant. Hunt and Hess grade (P < 0.005) and age (P < 0.007) were significant predictors of outcome for the patients with cocaine-related aneurysms. CONCLUSION: Cocaine use predisposed aneurysmal rupture at a significantly earlier age and in much smaller aneurysms. Contrary to the published literature, this group did reasonably well with aggressive management.","[{'text': 'Intracranial aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D002532'}, {'text': 'cocaine abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D019970'}, {'text': 'subarachnoid hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 103, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'cocaine abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 143, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D019970'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 403, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D000783'}, {'text': 'ruptured aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 498, 'mesh': 'D017542'}, {'text': 'cocaine abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 517, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D019970'}, {'text': 'subarachnoid hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 610, 'end': 633, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'aneurysm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 647, 'end': 655, 'mesh': 'D000783'}, {'text': 'aneurysm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 673, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D000783'}, {'text': 'aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 903, 'end': 912, 'mesh': 'D000783'}, {'text': 'aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 977, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D000783'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1281, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D000783'}, {'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1320, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'aneurysmal rupture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1362, 'mesh': 'D017542'}, {'text': 'aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1423, 'mesh': 'D000783'}]" +305,12536034,Anti-epileptic drugs-induced de novo absence seizures.,"The authors present three patients with de novo absence epilepsy after administration of carbamazepine and vigabatrin. Despite the underlying diseases, the prognosis for drug-induced de novo absence seizure is good because it subsides rapidly after discontinuing the use of the offending drugs. The gamma-aminobutyric acid-transmitted thalamocortical circuitry accounts for a major part of the underlying neurophysiology of the absence epilepsy. Because drug-induced de novo absence seizure is rare, pro-absence drugs can only be considered a promoting factor. The underlying epileptogenecity of the patients or the synergistic effects of the accompanying drugs is required to trigger the de novo absence seizure. The possibility of drug-induced aggravation should be considered whenever an unexpected increase in seizure frequency and/or new seizure types appear following a change in drug treatment. By understanding the underlying mechanism of absence epilepsy, we can avoid the inappropriate use of anticonvulsants in children with epilepsy and prevent drug-induced absence seizures.","[{'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 5, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'absence seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D004832'}, {'text': 'absence epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 103, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D004832'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 144, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 162, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'absence seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 246, 'end': 261, 'mesh': 'D004832'}, {'text': 'gamma-aminobutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 354, 'end': 377, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'absence epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 483, 'end': 499, 'mesh': 'D004832'}, {'text': 'absence seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 530, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D004832'}, {'text': 'absence seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 752, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D004832'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 869, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 898, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'absence epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1002, 'end': 1018, 'mesh': 'D004832'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1091, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'absence seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1141, 'mesh': 'D004832'}]" +306,7234705,Procainamide-induced polymorphous ventricular tachycardia.,"Seven cases of procainamide-induced polymorphous ventricular tachycardia are presented.

These findings suggest that disruption of the blood-brain barrier during acute hypertension is not related to the synthesis/release of bradykinin to activate B2 receptors.","[{'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 100, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 200, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 301, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 391, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 497, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D003911'}, {'text': 'phenylephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 523, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 551, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Hoe-140', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'C065679'}, {'text': 'Phenylephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 619, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 720, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D003911'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 846, 'end': 858, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 902, 'end': 912, 'mesh': 'D001920'}]" +308,2578334,5-azacytidine potentiates initiation induced by carcinogens in rat liver.,"To test the validity of the hypothesis that hypomethylation of DNA plays an important role in the initiation of carcinogenic process, 5-azacytidine (5-AzC) (10 mg/kg), an inhibitor of DNA methylation, was given to rats during the phase of repair synthesis induced by the three carcinogens, benzo[a]-pyrene (200 mg/kg), N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (60 mg/kg) and 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (1,2-DMH) (100 mg/kg). The initiated hepatocytes in the liver were assayed as the gamma-glutamyltransferase (gamma-GT) positive foci formed following a 2-week selection regimen consisting of dietary 0.02% 2-acetylaminofluorene coupled with a necrogenic dose of CCl4. The results obtained indicate that with all three carcinogens, administration of 5-AzC during repair synthesis increased the incidence of initiated hepatocytes, for example 10-20 foci/cm2 in 5-AzC and carcinogen-treated rats compared with 3-5 foci/cm2 in rats treated with carcinogen only. Administration of [3H]-5-azadeoxycytidine during the repair synthesis induced by 1,2-DMH further showed that 0.019 mol % of cytosine residues in DNA were substituted by the analogue, indicating that incorporation of 5-AzC occurs during repair synthesis. In the absence of the carcinogen, 5-AzC given after a two thirds partial hepatectomy, when its incorporation should be maximum, failed to induce any gamma-GT positive foci. The results suggest that hypomethylation of DNA per se may not be sufficient for initiation. Perhaps two events might be necessary for initiation, the first caused by the carcinogen and a second involving hypomethylation of DNA.","[{'text': '5-azacytidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D001374'}, {'text': 'initiation induced by carcinogens', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D011230'}, {'text': 'initiation of carcinogenic process', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 172, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D011230'}, {'text': '5-azacytidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D001374'}, {'text': '5-AzC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D001374'}, {'text': 'benzo[a]-pyrene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 364, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D001564'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-N-nitrosourea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 393, 'end': 415, 'mesh': 'D008770'}, {'text': '1,2-dimethylhydrazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 431, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D019813'}, {'text': '1,2-DMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 454, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D019813'}, {'text': '2-acetylaminofluorene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 658, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D015073'}, {'text': 'CCl4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 714, 'end': 718, 'mesh': 'D002251'}, {'text': '5-AzC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 801, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D001374'}, {'text': '5-AzC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 911, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D001374'}, {'text': '[3H]-5-azadeoxycytidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1051, 'mesh': 'C014347'}, {'text': '1,2-DMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1091, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D019813'}, {'text': 'cytosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D003596'}, {'text': '5-AzC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D001374'}, {'text': '5-AzC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D001374'}]" +309,11532387,Withdrawal-emergent rabbit syndrome during dose reduction of risperidone.,"Rabbit syndrome (RS) is a rare extrapyramidal side effect caused by prolonged neuroleptic medication.

The methotrexate was administered as a loading dose of 6,000 mg/m2 for a period of one hour followed by an infusion of 1,200 mg/m2/h for 23 hours. Leucovorin rescue was initiated 12 hours after the end of the infusion with a loading dose of 200 mg/m2 followed by 12 mg/m2 every three hours for six doses and then every six hours until the plasma methotrexate level decreased to less than 1 X 10(-7) mol/L. The mean steady-state plasma and CSF methotrexate concentrations achieved were 1.1 X 10(-3) mol/L and 3.6 X 10(-5) mol/L, respectively. All 20 patients responded to this regimen, 16/20 (80%) achieved a complete remission, and 20% obtained a partial remission. The most common toxicities encountered were transient serum transaminase and bilirubin elevations, neutropenia, and mucositis.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the added diagnostic value of a new cardiac performance index (dP/dtejc) measurement, based on brachial artery flow changes, as compared to standard 12-lead ECG, for detecting dobutamine-induced myocardial ischemia, using Tc99m-Sestamibi single-photon emission computed tomography as the gold standard of comparison to assess the presence or absence of ischemia. METHODS: The study group comprised 40 patients undergoing Sestamibi-SPECT/dobutamine stress test. Simultaneous measurements of ECG and brachial artery dP/dtejc were performed at each dobutamine level. In 19 of the 40 patients perfusion defects compatible with ischemia were detected on SPECT. The increase in dP/dtejc during infusion of dobutamine in this group was severely impaired as compared to the non-ischemic group. dP/dtejc outcome was combined with the ECG results, giving an ECG-enhanced value, and compared to ECG alone. RESULTS: The sensitivity improved dramatically from 16% to 79%, positive predictive value increased from 60% to 68% and negative predictive value from 54% to 78%, and specificity decreased from 90% to 67%. CONCLUSIONS: If ECG alone is used for specificity, the combination with dP/dtejc improved the sensitivity of the test and could be a cost-savings alternative to cardiac imaging or perfusion studies to detect myocardial ischemia, especially in patients unable to exercise.","[{'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 98, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 191, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 429, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 448, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'Tc99m-Sestamibi', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D017256'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 606, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'Sestamibi', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 674, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D017256'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 690, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 876, 'end': 884, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 963, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1581, 'mesh': 'D017202'}]" +315,18004067,Acute liver failure in two patients with regular alcohol consumption ingesting paracetamol at therapeutic dosage.,"BACKGROUND: The possible role of alcohol in the development of hepatotoxicity associated with therapeutic doses of paracetamol (acetaminophen) is currently debated.

The patient was taking 80 mg simvastatin at bedtime (initiated 27 days earlier); amiodarone at a dose of 400 mg daily for 7 days, then 200 mg daily (initiated 19 days earlier); and 400 mg atazanavir daily (initiated at least 2 years previously). Laboratory evaluation revealed 66,680 U/L creatine kinase, 93 mg/dL blood urea nitrogen, 4.6 mg/dL creatinine, 1579 U/L aspartate aminotransferase, and 738 U/L alanine aminotransferase. Simvastatin, amiodarone, and the patient's human immunodeficiency virus medications were all temporarily discontinued and the patient was given forced alkaline diuresis and started on dialysis. Nine days later the patient's creatine kinase had dropped to 1695 U/L and creatinine was 3.3 mg/dL. The patient was discharged and continued outpatient dialysis for 1 month until his renal function recovered. DISCUSSION: The risk of rhabdomyolysis is increased in the presence of concomitant drugs that inhibit simvastatin metabolism. Simvastatin is metabolized by CYP3A4. Amiodarone and atazanavir are recognized CYP3A4 inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS: Pharmacokinetic differences in statins are an important consideration for assessing the risk of potential drug interactions. In patients requiring the concurrent use of statins and CYP3A4 inhibitors, pravastatin, fluvastatin, and rosuvastatin carry the lowest risk of drug interactions; atorvastatin carries moderate risk, whereas simvastatin and lovastatin have the highest risk and should be avoided in patients taking concomitant CYP3A4 inhibitors.","[{'text': 'rhabdomyolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 7, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D012206'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'atazanavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 107, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'C413408'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'atazanavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 218, 'mesh': 'C413408'}, {'text': 'rhabdomyolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 232, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D012206'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'human immunodeficiency virus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 324, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 354, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 375, 'end': 398, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'hyperlipidemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 404, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D006949'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 446, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'fatigue', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 452, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D005221'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 524, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'atazanavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 683, 'end': 693, 'mesh': 'C413408'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 783, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'blood urea nitrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 809, 'end': 828, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 840, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 861, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'alanine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 901, 'end': 908, 'mesh': 'D000409'}, {'text': 'Simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 927, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 940, 'end': 950, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'human immunodeficiency virus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 970, 'end': 998, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1195, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'rhabdomyolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1368, 'mesh': 'D012206'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1432, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'Simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1456, 'end': 1467, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1494, 'end': 1504, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'atazanavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1509, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'C413408'}, {'text': 'statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1598, 'end': 1605, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1736, 'end': 1743, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'pravastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1767, 'end': 1778, 'mesh': 'D017035'}, {'text': 'fluvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1791, 'mesh': 'C065180'}, {'text': 'rosuvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1797, 'end': 1809, 'mesh': 'C422923'}, {'text': 'atorvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1854, 'end': 1866, 'mesh': 'C065179'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1898, 'end': 1909, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'lovastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1914, 'end': 1924, 'mesh': 'D008148'}]" +318,8558192,Phase II trial of vinorelbine in metastatic squamous cell esophageal carcinoma. European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Gastrointestinal Treat Cancer Cooperative Group.,"PURPOSE: To evaluate the response rate and toxic effects of vinorelbine (VNB) administered as a single agent in metastatic squamous cell esophageal carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Forty-six eligible patients with measurable lesions were included and were stratified according to previous chemotherapy. Thirty patients without prior chemotherapy and 16 pretreated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy were assessable for toxicity and response. VNB was administered weekly as a 25-mg/m2 short intravenous (i.v.) infusion. RESULTS: Six of 30 patients (20%) without prior chemotherapy achieved a partial response (PR) (95% confidence interval [CI], 8% to 39%). The median duration of response was 21 weeks (range, 17 to 28). One of 16 patients (6%) with prior chemotherapy had a complete response (CR) of 31 weeks' duration (95% CI, 0% to 30%). The overall response rate (World Health Organization [WHO] criteria) was 15% (CR, 2%; PR 13%; 95% CI, 6% to 29%). The median dose-intensity (DI) was 20 mg/m2/wk. VNB was well tolerated and zero instances of WHO grade 4 nonhematologic toxicity occurred. At least one episode of grade 3 or 4 granulocytopenia was seen in 59% of patients. A grade 2 or 3 infection occurred in 16% of patients, but no toxic deaths occurred. Other side effects were rare, and peripheral neurotoxicity has been minor (26% grade 1). CONCLUSION: These data indicate that VNB is an active agent in metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Given its excellent tolerance profile and low toxicity, further evaluation of VNB in combination therapy is warranted.","[{'text': 'vinorelbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'squamous cell esophageal carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'C562729'}, {'text': 'Cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 132, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'Cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'vinorelbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 248, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 261, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'squamous cell esophageal carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 311, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'C562729'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 557, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 606, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 629, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'granulocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1317, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'D000380'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1378, 'end': 1387, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'deaths', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1436, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'peripheral neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1481, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'C030852'}, {'text': 'esophageal squamous cell carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1610, 'end': 1644, 'mesh': 'C562729'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1692, 'end': 1700, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'VNB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1724, 'end': 1727, 'mesh': 'C030852'}]" +319,11135224,"Paclitaxel, cisplatin, and gemcitabine combination chemotherapy within a multidisciplinary therapeutic approach in metastatic nonsmall cell lung carcinoma.","BACKGROUND: Cisplatin-based chemotherapy combinations improve quality of life and survival in advanced nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The emergence of new active drugs might translate into more effective regimens for the treatment of this disease. METHODS: The objective of this study was to determine the feasibility, response rate, and toxicity of a paclitaxel, cisplatin, and gemcitabine combination to treat metastatic NSCLC. Thirty-five consecutive chemotherapy-naive patients with Stage IV NSCLC and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2 were treated with a combination of paclitaxel (135 mg/m(2) given intravenously in 3 hours) on Day 1, cisplatin (120 mg/m(2) given intravenously in 6 hours) on Day 1, and gemcitabine (800 mg/m(2) given intravenously in 30 minutes) on Days 1 and 8, every 4 weeks. Although responding patients were scheduled to receive consolidation radiotherapy and 24 patients received preplanned second-line chemotherapy after disease progression, the response and toxicity rates reported refer only to the chemotherapy regimen given. RESULTS: All the patients were examined for toxicity; 34 were examinable for response. An objective response was observed in 73.5% of the patients (95% confidence interval [CI], 55.6-87.1%), including 4 complete responses (11.7%). According to intention-to-treat, the overall response rate was 71.4% (95% CI, 53. 7-85.4%). After 154 courses of therapy, the median dose intensity was 131 mg/m(2) for paclitaxel (97.3%), 117 mg/m(2) for cisplatin (97.3%), and 1378 mg/m(2) for gemcitabine (86.2%). World Health Organization Grade 3-4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia occurred in 39.9% and 11.4% of patients, respectively. There was one treatment-related death. Nonhematologic toxicities were mild. After a median follow-up of 22 months, the median progression free survival rate was 7 months, and the median survival time was 16 months. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of paclitaxel, cisplatin, and gemcitabine is well tolerated and shows high activity in metastatic NSCLC.

Report on arrhythmia and other findings. Impact Research Group.,"The antiarrhythmic effects of the sustained release form of mexiletine (Mexitil-Perlongets) were evaluated in a double-blind placebo trial in 630 patients with recent documented myocardial infarction. The primary response variable was based on central reading of 24 hour ambulatory electrocardiographic recordings and was defined as the occurrence of 30 or more single premature ventricular complexes in any two consecutive 30 minute blocks or one or more runs of two or more premature ventricular complexes in the entire 24 hour electrocardiographic recording. Large differences, regarded as statistically significant, between the mexiletine and placebo groups were noted in that end point at months 1 and 4, but only trends were observed at month 12.

Among these behavioral effects are decreases in food intake and decreases in amphetamine-induced locomotor activity. In previous experiments we found that decreases in food intake were induced by local administration of calcitonin into several hypothalamic sites and into the nucleus accumbens. In the present experiment calcitonin decreased locomotor activity when locally injected into the same sites where it decreases food intake. The areas where calcitonin is most effective in decreasing locomotor activity are located in the hypothalamus and nucleus accumbens, suggesting that these areas are the major sites of action of calcitonin in inhibiting amphetamine-induced locomotor activity.","[{'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'calcitonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 94, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D002116'}, {'text': 'Calcitonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 117, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D002116'}, {'text': 'calcitonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 193, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D002116'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 313, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'calcitonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 466, 'mesh': 'D002116'}, {'text': 'calcitonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 557, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D002116'}, {'text': 'calcitonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 687, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D002116'}, {'text': 'calcitonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D002116'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 890, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D000661'}]" +324,8953972,Fatal intracranial bleeding associated with prehospital use of epinephrine.,"We present a case of paramedic misjudgment in the execution of a protocol for the treatment of allergic reaction in a case of pulmonary edema with wheezing.

A low incidence of cardiovascular malformations was observed after exposure to each of the four calcium channel blockers, but this incidence was statistically significant only for verapamil and nifedipine.

Recent data suggest a preferential selection of immune escape mutants in distinct peripheral blood leukocyte compartments of infected individuals. We therefore systematically analyzed the functional impact of the most prevalent immune escape variants, the sG145R and sP120T mutants, on the viral replication efficacy and antiviral drug susceptibility of common treatment-associated mutants with resistance to lamivudine (LAM) and/or HBeAg negativity. Replication-competent HBV strains with sG145R or sP120T and LAM resistance (rtM204I or rtL180M/rtM204V) were generated on an HBeAg-positive and an HBeAg-negative background with precore (PC) and basal core promoter (BCP) mutants. The sG145R mutation strongly reduced HBsAg levels and was able to fully restore the impaired replication of LAM-resistant HBV mutants to the levels of wild-type HBV, and PC or BCP mutations further enhanced viral replication. Although the sP120T substitution also impaired HBsAg secretion, it did not enhance the replication of LAM-resistant clones. However, the concomitant occurrence of HBeAg negativity (PC/BCP), sP120T, and LAM resistance resulted in the restoration of replication to levels of wild-type HBV. In all clones with combined immune escape and LAM resistance mutations, the nucleotide analogues adefovir and tenofovir remained effective in suppressing viral replication in vitro. These findings reveal the differential impact of immune escape variants on the replication and drug susceptibility of complex HBV mutants, supporting the need of close surveillance and treatment adjustment in response to the selection of distinct mutational patterns.","[{'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 85, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B virus e antigen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 196, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 774, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'LAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 786, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'HBeAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 798, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'LAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 876, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'HBeAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 941, 'end': 946, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'HBeAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1083, 'end': 1088, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'LAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1154, 'end': 1157, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'LAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1374, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'HBeAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1435, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'LAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1477, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'LAM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1606, 'end': 1609, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'nucleotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1636, 'end': 1646, 'mesh': 'D009711'}, {'text': 'adefovir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1657, 'end': 1665, 'mesh': 'C053001'}, {'text': 'tenofovir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1670, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'C096918'}]" +328,15278670,The effects of sevoflurane on lidocaine-induced convulsions.,"The influence of sevoflurane on lidocaine-induced convulsions was studied in cats. The convulsive threshold (mean +/- SD) was 41.4 +/- 6.5 mg. l(-1) with lidocaine infusion (6 mg.kg(-1).min(-1)), increasing significantly to 66.6 +/- 10.9 mg. l(-1) when the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane was 0.8%. However, the threshold (61.6 +/- 8.7 mg. l(-1)) during 1.6% sevoflurane was not significant from that during 0.8% sevoflurane, indicating a celling effect. There was no significant difference in the convulsive threshold between sevoflurane and enflurane. The rise in blood pressure became less marked when higher concentrations of sevoflurane or enflurane were administered and the blood pressure at convulsions decreased significantly in 1.6% sevoflurane, and in 0.8% and 1.6% enflurane. However, there was no significant difference in the lidocaine concentrations measured when the systolic blood pressure became 70 mmHg. Apamin, a selective blocker of calcium-dependent potassium channels, was administered intracerebroventricularly in rats anesthetized with 0.8% sevoflurane to investigate the mechanism of the anticonvulsive effects. Apamin (10 ng) had a tendency to decrease the convulsive threshold (21.6 +/- 2.2 to 19.9 +/- 2.5 mg. l(-1)) but this was not statistically significant. It is suggested that sevoflurane reduces the convulsive effect of lidocaine toxicity but carries some risk due to circulatory depression.","[{'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 15, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 48, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 93, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 148, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 215, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 345, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 427, 'end': 438, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 481, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 566, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 595, 'end': 606, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'enflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 611, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D004737'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 698, 'end': 709, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'enflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 713, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D004737'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 767, 'end': 778, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 811, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'enflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 845, 'end': 854, 'mesh': 'D004737'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 908, 'end': 917, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'Apamin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 991, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D001030'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1040, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'Apamin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D001030'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1390, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1403, 'end': 1413, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1424, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1434, 'end': 1442, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1484, 'end': 1494, 'mesh': 'D003866'}]" +329,17042910,Anti-oxidant effects of atorvastatin in dexamethasone-induced hypertension in the rat.,"1. Dexamethasone (Dex)-induced hypertension is characterized by endothelial dysfunction associated with nitric oxide (NO) deficiency and increased superoxide (O2-) production. Atorvastatin (Ato) possesses pleiotropic properties that have been reported to improve endothelial function through increased availability of NO and reduced O2- production in various forms of hypertension. In the present study, we investigated whether 50 mg/kg per day, p.o., Ato could prevent endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) downregulation and the increase in O2- in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, thereby reducing blood pressure. 2. Male SD rats (n = 30) were treated with Ato (50 mg/kg per day in drinking water) or tap water for 15 days. Dexamethasone (10 microg/kg per day, s.c.) or saline was started after 4 days in Ato-treated and non-treated rats and continued for 11-13 days. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) was measured on alternate days using the tail-cuff method. Endothelial function was assessed by acetylcholine-induced vasorelaxation and phenylephrine-induced vasoconstriction in aortic segments. Vascular eNOS mRNA was assessed by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. 3. In rats treated with Dex alone, SBP was increased from 109 +/- 2 to 133 +/- 2 mmHg on Days 4 and Day 14, respectively (P < 0.001). In the Ato + Dex group, SBP was increased from 113 +/- 2 to 119 +/- 2 mmHg on Days 4 to 14, respectively (P < 0.001), but was significantly lower than SBP in the group treated with Dex alone (P < 0.05).

The animal model used to produce infarction implies artery ligation but chemical induction can be easily obtained with isoproterenol. A new infarct-avid radiopharmaceutical based on glucaric acid was prepared in the hospital radiopharmacy of the INCMNSZ. 99mTc-glucarate was easy to prepare, stable for 96 h and was used to study its biodistribution in rats with isoproterenol-induced acute myocardial infarction. Histological studies demonstrated that the rats developed an infarct 18 h after isoproterenol administration. The rat biodistribution studies showed a rapid blood clearance via the kidneys. Thirty minutes after 99mTc-glucarate administration the standardised heart uptake value S(h)UV was 4.7 in infarcted rat heart which is six times more than in normal rats. ROIs drawn over the gamma camera images showed a ratio of 4.4. The high image quality suggests that high contrast images can be obtained in humans and the 96 h stability makes it an ideal agent to detect, in patients, early cardiac infarction.","[{'text': '99mTc-glucarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'C067171'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'Infarct', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 86, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D007238'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 230, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D007238'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 316, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'infarct', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 344, 'mesh': 'D007238'}, {'text': 'glucaric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 379, 'end': 392, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': '99mTc-glucarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 452, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'C067171'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 588, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'infarct', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 672, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D007238'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 691, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': '99mTc-glucarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 822, 'end': 837, 'mesh': 'C067171'}, {'text': 'cardiac infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1196, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'D009203'}]" +331,9812111,"A randomized, placebo-controlled dose-comparison trial of haloperidol for psychosis and disruptive behaviors in Alzheimer's disease.","OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to compare the efficacy and side effects of two doses of haloperidol and placebo in the treatment of psychosis and disruptive behaviors in patients with Alzheimer's disease. METHOD: In a 6-week random-assignment, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (phase A), haloperidol, 2-3 mg/day (standard dose), and haloperidol, 0.50-0.75 mg/day (low dose), were compared in 71 outpatients with Alzheimer's disease. For the subsequent 6-week double-blind crossover phase (phase B), patients taking standard- or low-dose haloperidol were switched to placebo, and patients taking placebo were randomly assigned to standard- or low-dose haloperidol. RESULTS: For the 60 patients who completed phase A, standard-dose haloperidol was efficacious and superior to both low-dose haloperidol and placebo for scores on the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale psychosis factor and on psychomotor agitation. Response rates according to three sets of criteria were greater with the standard dose (55%-60%) than the low dose (25%-35%) and placebo (25%-30%). The advantage of standard dose over low dose was replicated in phase B. In phase A, extrapyramidal signs tended to be greater with the standard dose than in the other two conditions, primarily because of a subgroup (20%) who developed moderate to severe signs. Low-dose haloperidol did not differ from placebo on any measure of efficacy or side effects. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicated a favorable therapeutic profile for haloperidol in doses of 2-3 mg/day, although a subgroup developed moderate to severe extrapyramidal signs. A starting dose of 1 mg/day with gradual, upward dose titration is recommended. The narrow therapeutic window observed with haloperidol may also apply to other neuroleptics used in Alzheimer's disease patients with psychosis and disruptive behaviors.","[{'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 74, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'disruptive behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 88, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D019958'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 112, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 228, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 272, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'disruptive behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 286, 'end': 306, 'mesh': 'D019958'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 324, 'end': 343, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 434, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 558, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 683, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 797, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 876, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 934, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1007, 'end': 1016, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'psychomotor agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'extrapyramidal signs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1472, 'end': 1483, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1627, 'end': 1638, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'extrapyramidal signs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1712, 'end': 1732, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1858, 'end': 1869, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1915, 'end': 1934, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1949, 'end': 1958, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'disruptive behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1963, 'end': 1983, 'mesh': 'D019958'}]" +332,15572383,Individual differences in renal ACE activity in healthy rats predict susceptibility to adriamycin-induced renal damage.,"BACKGROUND: In man, differences in angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) levels, related to ACE (I/D) genotype, are associated with renal prognosis. This raises the hypothesis that individual differences in renal ACE activity are involved in renal susceptibility to inflicted damage. Therefore, we studied the predictive effect of renal ACE activity for the severity of renal damage induced by a single injection of adriamycin in rats. METHODS: Renal ACE activity (Hip-His-Leu cleavage by cortical homogenates) was determined by renal biopsy in 27 adult male Wistar rats. After 1 week of recovery, proteinuria was induced by adriamycin [1.5 mg/kg intravenously (i.v.) n = 18; controls, saline i.v. n = 9]. Proteinuria was measured every 2 weeks. After 12 weeks, rats were sacrificed and their kidneys harvested. RESULTS: As anticipated, adriamycin elicited nephrotic range proteinuria, renal interstitial damage and mild focal glomerulosclerosis. Baseline renal ACE positively correlated with the relative rise in proteinuria after adriamycin (r = 0.62, P<0.01), renal interstitial alpha-smooth muscle actin (r = 0.49, P<0.05), interstitial macrophage influx (r = 0.56, P<0.05), interstitial collagen III (r = 0.53, P<0.05), glomerular alpha-smooth muscle actin (r = 0.74, P<0.01) and glomerular desmin (r = 0.48, P<0.05). Baseline renal ACE did not correlate with focal glomerulosclerosis (r = 0.22, NS). In controls, no predictive values for renal parameters were observed. CONCLUSION: Individual differences in renal ACE activity predict the severity of adriamycin-induced renal damage in this outbred rat strain. This supports the assumption that differences in renal ACE activity predispose to a less favourable course of renal damage.","[{'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 106, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 155, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 488, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 534, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Hip-His-Leu', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'C010980'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 716, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 753, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 824, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 955, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 975, 'end': 984, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 991, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'renal interstitial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'focal glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1063, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1132, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1150, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'focal glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1675, 'end': 1685, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1694, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1845, 'end': 1857, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +333,7420681,Clinical nephrotoxicity of tobramycin and gentamicin.

Methamphetamine (10 mg/kg sc), administered five times, reduced the levels of dopamine and its metabolites in striatal tissue when measured 72 h after the last injection. A selective antagonist of mGluR5, 2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine (MPEP; 5 mg/kg ip), when administered five times immediately before each methamphetamine injection reversed the above-mentioned methamphetamine effects. A single MPEP (5 mg/kg ip) injection reduced the basal extracellular dopamine level in the striatum, as well as dopamine release stimulated either by methamphetamine (10 mg/kg sc) or by intrastriatally administered veratridine (100 microM). Moreover, it transiently diminished the methamphetamine (10 mg/kg sc)-induced hyperthermia and reduced basal body temperature. MPEP administered into the striatum at high concentrations (500 microM) increased extracellular dopamine levels, while lower concentrations (50-100 microM) were devoid of any effect. The results of this study suggest that the blockade of mGluR5 by MPEP may protect dopaminergic neurones against methamphetamine-induced toxicity. Neuroprotection rendered by MPEP may be associated with the reduction of the methamphetamine-induced dopamine efflux in the striatum due to the blockade of extrastriatal mGluR5, and with a decrease in hyperthermia.","[{'text': 'MPEP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'C121465'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 66, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 103, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 322, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'Methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 372, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 450, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': '2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 577, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'C121465'}, {'text': 'MPEP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 613, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'C121465'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 685, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 740, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'MPEP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 774, 'end': 778, 'mesh': 'C121465'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 834, 'end': 842, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 877, 'end': 885, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 915, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'veratridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 980, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D014701'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1046, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1084, 'end': 1096, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'MPEP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'C121465'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'MPEP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1381, 'end': 1385, 'mesh': 'C121465'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1460, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'MPEP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1494, 'mesh': 'C121465'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1539, 'end': 1554, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1663, 'end': 1675, 'mesh': 'D005334'}]" +335,16680561,Pharmacokinetics of desipramine HCl when administered with cinacalcet HCl.,"OBJECTIVE: In vitro work has demonstrated that cinacalcet is a strong inhibitor of cytochrome P450 isoenzyme (CYP) 2D6. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of cinacalcet on CYP2D6 activity, using desipramine as a probe substrate, in healthy subjects. METHODS: Seventeen subjects who were genotyped as CYP2D6 extensive metabolizers were enrolled in this randomized, open-label, crossover study to receive a single oral dose of desipramine (50 mg) on two separate occasions, once alone and once after multiple doses of cinacalcet (90 mg for 7 days). Blood samples were obtained predose and up to 72 h postdose. RESULTS: Fourteen subjects completed both treatment arms. Relative to desipramine alone, mean AUC and C(max) of desipramine increased 3.6- and 1.8-fold when coadministered with cinacalcet. The t (1/2,z) of desipramine was longer when desipramine was coadministered with cinacalcet (21.0 versus 43.3 hs). The t (max) was similar between the regimens. Fewer subjects reported adverse events following treatment with desipramine alone than when receiving desipramine with cinacalcet (33 versus 86%), the most frequent of which (nausea and headache) have been reported for patients treated with either desipramine or cinacalcet. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that cinacalcet is a strong inhibitor of CYP2D6. These data suggest that during concomitant treatment with cinacalcet, dose adjustment may be necessary for drugs that demonstrate a narrow therapeutic index and are metabolized by CYP2D6.","[{'text': 'desipramine HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 132, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 251, 'end': 261, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 518, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 609, 'end': 619, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 824, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 918, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 935, 'end': 946, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 971, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1115, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1164, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1180, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1232, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1245, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1310, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1314, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1367, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'C476217'}, {'text': 'cinacalcet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'C476217'}]" +336,17532790,Proteomic analysis of striatal proteins in the rat model of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia.,"L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) is among the motor complications that arise in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients after a prolonged treatment with L-DOPA. To this day, transcriptome analysis has been performed in a rat model of LID [Neurobiol. Dis., 17 (2004), 219] but information regarding the proteome is still lacking. In the present study, we investigated the changes occurring at the protein level in striatal samples obtained from the unilaterally 6-hydroxydopamine-lesion rat model of PD treated with saline, L-DOPA or bromocriptine using two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry (MS). Rats treated with L-DOPA were allocated to two groups based on the presence or absence of LID. Among the 2000 spots compared for statistical difference, 67 spots were significantly changed in abundance and identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight MS, atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization and HPLC coupled tandem MS (LC/MS/MS). Out of these 67 proteins, LID significantly changed the expression level of five proteins: alphabeta-crystalin, gamma-enolase, guanidoacetate methyltransferase, vinculin, and proteasome alpha-2 subunit. Complementary techniques such as western immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry were performed to investigate the validity of the data obtained using the proteomic approach. In conclusion, this study provides new insights into the protein changes occurring in LID.","[{'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 75, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 102, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 114, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 166, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 187, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 233, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 314, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': '6-hydroxydopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 541, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'D016627'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 579, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 603, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 613, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 726, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 798, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1565, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +337,7582165,Pseudo-allergic reactions to corticosteroids: diagnosis and alternatives.,"Two patients treated with parenteral paramethasone (Triniol) and dexamethasone (Sedionbel) are described. A few minutes after administration of the drugs, they presented urticaria (patients 1 and 2) and conjunctivitis (patient 1). The purpose of our study was to determine the cause of the patients' reactions, the immunological mechanisms involved and whether these patients would be able to tolerate any kind of corticoid. Clinical examinations and skin, oral and parenteral challenges with different corticosteroids and ELISA tests were performed. In the two patients, skin and ELISA tests with paramethasone were negative, as was the prick test with each of its excipients. A single-blind parenteral challenge with Triniol was positive in both patients after the administration of 1 ml of the drug, and negative with its excipients. We also carried out oral and parenteral challenges with other corticosteroids and found intolerance to some of them. These results suggest that paramethasone caused pseudoallergic reactions in our patients. Corticosteroids different from paramethasone also produced hypersensitivity reactions in these patients; however, a few of them were tolerated. The basic mechanisms of those reactions are not yet fully understood. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a pseudo-allergy caused by paramethasone.","[{'text': 'allergic reactions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 7, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'corticosteroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D000305'}, {'text': 'paramethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D010248'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'conjunctivitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 277, 'end': 291, 'mesh': 'D003231'}, {'text': 'corticosteroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 577, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'D000305'}, {'text': 'paramethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 672, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D010248'}, {'text': 'corticosteroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 973, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D000305'}, {'text': 'paramethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D010248'}, {'text': 'paramethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1162, 'mesh': 'D010248'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'allergy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1387, 'end': 1394, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'paramethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D010248'}]" +338,16787750,Valproic acid induced encephalopathy--19 new cases in Germany from 1994 to 2003--a side effect associated to VPA-therapy not only in young children.,"Valproic acid (VPA) is a broad-spectrum antiepileptic drug and is usually well-tolerated.

Perinatal risk factors of infants with hearing loss were compared with those of two control groups matched for gestation and birth weight and for perinatal complications. Our observations demonstrated an association of hearing loss with a higher incidence of perinatal complications. Ototoxicity appeared closely related to a prolonged administration and higher total dose of ototoxic drugs, particularly aminoglycosides and furosemide.

The cerebrospinal fluid: serum ratio of cimetidine concentrations was 0.24:1 and indicates that cimetidine passes the blood-brain barrier; it also raises the possibility that M.S. changes are due to blockade of histamine H2-receptors in the central nervous system.

Although hepatocyte TJs are impaired in cholestasis, attempts to localize the precise site of hepatocyte TJ damage by freeze-fracture electron microscopy have produced limited information. Recently, several TJ-associated proteins like ZO-1 and 7H6 have been identified and characterized. Immunolocalization of 7H6 appears to closely correlate with paracellular permeability. We used rat models of intrahepatic cholestasis by ethinyl estradiol (EE) treatment and extrahepatic cholestasis by bile duct ligation (BDL) to precisely determine the site of TJ damage. Alterations in hepatocyte TJs were assessed by double-immunolabeling for 7H6 and ZO-1 using a confocal laser scanning microscope. In control rats, immunostaining for 7H6 and ZO-1 colocalized to outline bile canaliculi in a continuous fashion. In contrast, 7H6 and ZO-1 immunostaining was more discontinuous, outlining the bile canaliculi after BDL. Immunostaining for 7H6, not ZO-1, decreased and predominantly appeared as discrete signals in the submembranous cytoplasm of periportal hepatocytes after BDL. After EE treatment, changes in immunostaining for 7H6 and ZO-1 were similar to those seen in periportal hepatocytes after BDL, but distributed more diffusely throughout the lobule. This study is the first to demonstrate that impairment of hepatocyte TJs occurs heterogenously in the liver lobule after BDL and suggests that BDL and EE treatments produce different lobular distributions of increased paracellular permeability.","[{'text': 'cholestasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 321, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D002779'}, {'text': 'intrahepatic cholestasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 678, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D002780'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 706, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 725, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'extrahepatic cholestasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 743, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D001651'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1682, 'end': 1684, 'mesh': 'D004997'}]" +343,15515654,Long term audiological evaluation of beta-thalassemic patients.,"OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to identify the incidence and to monitor the progression of hearing loss in children and young adults with beta-thalassemia major. METHODS: One hundred and four (104) patients aged 6-35 years (mean 17,2 years) participated in the study. All patients were on a regular transfusion-chelation program maintaining a mean hemoglobin level of 9.5 gr/dl. Subjects were receiving desferrioxamine (DFO) chelation treatment with a mean daily dose of 50-60 mg/kg, 5-6 days a week during the first six years of the study, which was then reduced to 40-50 mg/kg for the following eight years. Patients were followed for 8-14 years. RESULTS: Overall, 21 out of 104 patients (20.2%) presented with high frequency sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), either unilateral or bilateral. No ototoxic factor, other than DFO, was present in any of the patients. Patients with SNHL presented with relatively lower serum ferritin levels than those with normal hearing, however, no statistically significant difference was observed. Subjects with SNHL were submitted to DFO reduction or temporary withdrawal. Following intervention, 7 out of 21 affected patients recovered, 10 remained stable and 4 demonstrated aggravation. CONCLUSION: The findings are indicative of DFO's contributing role in the development of hearing impairment. Regular audiologic evaluation is imperative in all thalassemic patients so that early changes may be recognized and treatment may be judiciously adjusted in order to prevent or reverse hearing impairment.","[{'text': 'beta-thalassemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D017086'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 167, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'beta-thalassemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D017086'}, {'text': 'desferrioxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 496, 'end': 499, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'sensorineural hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'D006319'}, {'text': 'SNHL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 832, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D006319'}, {'text': 'ototoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 874, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'D006311'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 902, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'SNHL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 961, 'mesh': 'D006319'}, {'text': 'SNHL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1129, 'mesh': 'D006319'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1346, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'hearing impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1392, 'end': 1410, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'thalassemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1463, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'D013789'}, {'text': 'hearing impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1597, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D034381'}]" +344,2024540,Design and analysis of the HYPREN-trial: safety of enalapril and prazosin in the initial treatment phase of patients with congestive heart failure.,"Since the introduction of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors into the adjunctive treatment of patients with congestive heart failure, cases of severe hypotension, especially on the first day of treatment, have occasionally been reported. To assess the safety of the ACE inhibitor enalapril a multicenter, randomized, prazosin-controlled trial was designed that compared the incidence and severity of symptomatic hypotension on the first day of treatment. Trial medication was 2.5 mg enalapril or 0.5 prazosin. Subjects were 1210 inpatients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II and III. Patients who received enalapril experienced clinically and statistically significantly less symptomatic hypotension (5.2%) than the patients who received prazosin (12.9%). All patients recovered.

Although interleukin 3 (IL-3) and erythropoietin (EPO) are known to act synergistically on hematopoietic cell proliferation in vitro, injection of IGF-IL-3 and EPO in AZT-treated mice resulted in a reduction of red cells and an increase of plasma EPO levels as compared to animals treated with IGF-IL-3 or EPO alone. We tested the hypothesis that the antagonistic effect of IL-3 and EPO on erythroid cells may be mediated by endothelial cells. Bovine liver erythroid cells were cultured on monolayers of human bone marrow endothelial cells previously treated with EPO and IGF-IL-3. There was a significant reduction of thymidine incorporation into both erythroid and endothelial cells in cultures pre-treated with IGF-IL-3 and EPO. Endothelial cell culture supernatants separated by ultrafiltration and ultracentrifugation from cells treated with EPO and IL-3 significantly reduced thymidine incorporation into erythroid cells as compared to identical fractions obtained from the media of cells cultured with EPO alone. These results suggest that endothelial cells treated simultaneously with EPO and IL-3 have a negative effect on erythroid cell production.","[{'text': 'azidothymidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 88, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'Azidothymidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 472, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'thymidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 924, 'end': 933, 'mesh': 'D013936'}, {'text': 'thymidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1187, 'end': 1196, 'mesh': 'D013936'}]" +346,7516729,Interactive effects of variations in [Na]o and [Ca]o on rat atrial spontaneous frequency.,"The effects of varying the extracellular concentrations of Na and Ca ([Na]o and [Ca]o) on both, the spontaneous beating and the negative chronotropic action of verapamil, were studied in the isolated rat atria. Basal frequency (BF) evaluated by surface electrogram was 223 +/- 4 beats/min. in control Krebs-Ringer containing 137 mM Na and 1.35 mM Ca (N). It decreased by 16 +/- 3% by lowering [Na]o to 78 mM (LNa), 23 +/- 2% by lowering simultaneously [Na]o to 78 mM and [Ca]o to 0.675 mM (LNa+LCa) and 31 +/- 5% by lowering [Na]o to 78 mM plus increasing [Ca]o to 3.6 mM (LNa+HCa). At normal [Na]o, decrease (0.675 mM) or increase (3.6 mM) of [Ca]o did not modify BF; a reduction of ten times (0.135 mM of normal [Ca]o was effective to reduce BF by 40 +/- 13%. All negative chronotropic effects were BF-dependent. Dose-dependent bradycardia induced by verapamil was potentiated by LNa, LCa, and HCa. Independent but not additive effects of Na and Ca are shown by decreases in the values of [verapamil]o needed to reduce BF by 30% (IC30) with the following order of inhibitory potency: LNa > LCa > HCa > N, resulting LNa+HCa similar to LNa. The [verapamil]o that arrested atrial beating (AC) was also potentiated with the order LNa = LNa+LCa = LNa+HCa = LCa > HCa = N. The results indicate that rat atrial spontaneous beating is more dependent on [Na]o than on [Ca]o in a range of +/- 50% of their normal concentration. Also the enhancement of verapamil effects on atrial beating was more pronounced at LNa than at LCa.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 156, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 161, 'end': 163, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 173, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 250, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 424, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 437, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 484, 'end': 486, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 543, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 562, 'end': 564, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 616, 'end': 618, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 647, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 686, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 737, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 805, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 943, 'end': 952, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1040, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1236, 'end': 1245, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1534, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D014700'}]" +347,2802551,Sodium status influences chronic amphotericin B nephrotoxicity in rats.,"The nephrotoxic potential of amphotericin B (5 mg/kg per day intraperitoneally for 3 weeks) has been investigated in salt-depleted, normal-salt, and salt-loaded rats.

In contrast, in normal-salt rats creatinine clearance was decreased but to a lesser extent at week 2 and 3, and in salt-loaded rats creatinine clearance did not change for 2 weeks and was decreased by 43% at week 3. All rats in the sodium-depleted group had histopathological evidence of patchy tubular cytoplasmic degeneration in tubules that was not observed in any normal-salt or salt-loaded rat. Concentrations of amphotericin B in plasma were not significantly different among the three groups at any time during the study. However, at the end of 3 weeks, amphotericin B levels in the kidneys and liver were significantly higher in salt-depleted and normal-salt rats than those in salt-loaded rats, with plasma/kidney ratios of 21, 14, and 8 in salt-depleted, normal-salt, and salt-loaded rats, respectively.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: From November 2005 to September 2007, 8 patients (5 men and 3 women) were diagnosed as having metronidazole-induced encephalopathy (age range; 43-78 years). They had been taking metronidazole (total dosage, 45-120 g; duration, 30 days to 2 months) to treat the infection in various organs. Initial brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were obtained after the hospitalization, including DWI (8/8), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map (4/8), FLAIR (7/8), and T2-weighted image (8/8). Follow-up MRIs were performed on 5 patients from third to 14th days after discontinuation of metronidazole administration. Findings of initial and follow-up MRIs were retrospectively evaluated by 2 neuroradiologists by consensus, to analyze the presence of abnormal signal intensities, their locations, and signal changes on follow-up images. RESULTS: Initial MRIs showed abnormal high signal intensities on DWI and FLAIR (or T2-weighted image) at the dentate nucleus (8/8), inferior colliculus (6/8), corpus callosum (2/8), pons (2/8), medulla (1/8), and bilateral cerebral white matter (1/8). High-signal intensity lesions on DWI tended to show low signal intensity on ADC map (3/4), but in one patient, high signal intensity was shown at bilateral dentate nuclei on not only DWI but also ADC map. All the lesions in dentate, inferior colliculus, pons, and medullas had been resolved completely on follow-up MRIs in 5 patients, but in 1 patient of them, corpus callosal lesion persisted.

Five females and 6 males, 21-59 years of age, were examined with a 1.5-T whole-body system using a circular polarized head coil. Conventional spin echo images were acquired in the sagittal and transverse orientation. In addition, we performed a high-resolution 3D gradient echo, T1-weighted sequences at a 1-mm slice thickness. The images were subsequently processed to obtain volumetric data for the cerebellum. Cerebellar volume for the patient group ranged between 67.66 and 131.08 ml (mean 108.9 ml). In addition 3D gradient echo data sets from 10 healthy male and 10 healthy female age-matched volunteers were used to compare cerebellar volumes. Using linear regression we found that no correlation exists between seizure duration, elevation of phenytoin serum levels and cerebellar volume. However, multiple regression for the daily dosage, duration of phenytoin treatment and cerebellar volume revealed a correlation of these parameters. We conclude that phenytoin overdosage does not necessarily result in cerebellar atrophy and it is unlikely that phenytoin medication was the only cause of cerebellar atrophy in the remaining patients. Quantitative morphometric studies of the cerebellum provide valuable insights into the pathogenesis of cerebellar disorders.","[{'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 50, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 75, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'overdosages', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 85, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 161, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'cerebellar atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'D002526'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 979, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1119, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1222, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'overdosage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1232, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'cerebellar atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1292, 'mesh': 'D002526'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1317, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'cerebellar atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1360, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D002526'}, {'text': 'cerebellar disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1509, 'end': 1529, 'mesh': 'D002526'}]" +351,12589964,"Evaluation of cardiac troponin I and T levels as markers of myocardial damage in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy rats, and their relationship with echocardiographic and histological findings.","BACKGROUND: Cardiac troponins I (cTnI) and T (cTnT) have been shown to be highly sensitive and specific markers of myocardial cell injury. We investigated the diagnostic value of cTnI and cTnT for the diagnosis of myocardial damage in a rat model of doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiomyopathy, and we examined the relationship between serial cTnI and cTnT with the development of cardiac disorders monitored by echocardiography and histological examinations in this model. METHODS: Thirty-five Wistar rats were given 1.5 mg/kg DOX, i.v., weekly for up to 8 weeks for a total cumulative dose of 12 mg/kg BW. Ten rats received saline as a control group. cTnI was measured with Access(R) (ng/ml) and a research immunoassay (pg/ml), and compared with cTnT, CK-MB mass and CK. By using transthoracic echocardiography, anterior and posterior wall thickness, LV diameters and LV fractional shortening (FS) were measured in all rats before DOX or saline, and at weeks 6 and 9 after treatment in all surviving rats. Histology was performed in DOX-rats at 6 and 9 weeks after the last DOX dose and in all controls. RESULTS: Eighteen of the DOX rats died prematurely of general toxicity during the 9-week period. End-diastolic (ED) and end-systolic (ES) LV diameters/BW significantly increased, whereas LV FS was decreased after 9 weeks in the DOX group (p<0.001). These parameters remained unchanged in controls. Histological evaluation of hearts from all rats given DOX revealed significant slight degrees of perivascular and interstitial fibrosis. In 7 of the 18 rats, degeneration and myocyte vacuolisation were found. Only five of the controls exhibited evidence of very slight perivascular fibrosis. A significant rise in cTnT was found in DOX rats after cumulative doses of 7.5 and 12 mg/kg in comparison with baseline (p<0.05). cTnT found in rats after 12 mg/kg were significantly greater than that found after 7.5 mg/kg DOX. Maximal cTnI (pg/ml) and cTnT levels were significantly increased in DOX rats compared with controls (p=0.006, 0.007). cTnI (ng/ml), CK-MB mass and CK remained unchanged in DOX rats compared with controls. All markers remained stable in controls. Analysis of data revealed a significant correlation between maximal cTnT and ED and ES LV diameters/BW (r=0.81 and 0.65; p<0.0001). A significant relationship was observed between maximal cTnT and the extent of myocardial morphological changes, and between LV diameters/BW and histological findings. CONCLUSIONS: Among markers of ischemic injury after DOX in rats, cTnT showed the greatest ability to detect myocardial damage assessed by echocardiographic detection and histological changes. Although there was a discrepancy between the amount of cTnI and cTnT after DOX, probably due to heterogeneity in cross-reactivities of mAbs to various cTnI and cTnT forms, it is likely that cTnT in rats after DOX indicates cell damage determined by the magnitude of injury induced and that cTnT should be a useful marker for the prediction of experimentally induced cardiotoxicity and possibly for cardioprotective experiments.","[{'text': 'myocardial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 60, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 101, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'myocardial cell injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 310, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'myocardial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 409, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 445, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 458, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 471, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'cardiac disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 573, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 720, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1323, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1360, 'end': 1368, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1529, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1650, 'end': 1653, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1723, 'end': 1731, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1878, 'end': 1886, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1928, 'end': 1931, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2111, 'end': 2114, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2185, 'end': 2188, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2289, 'end': 2292, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ischemic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2693, 'end': 2708, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2715, 'end': 2718, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'myocardial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2771, 'end': 2788, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2930, 'end': 2933, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 3064, 'end': 3067, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3221, 'end': 3235, 'mesh': 'D066126'}]" +352,11263551,Calcineurin-inhibitor induced pain syndrome (CIPS): a severe disabling complication after organ transplantation.,"Bone pain after transplantation is a frequent complication that can be caused by several diseases. Treatment strategies depend on the correct diagnosis of the pain. Nine patients with severe pain in their feet, which was registered after transplantation, were investigated. Bone scans showed an increased tracer uptake of the foot bones. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated bone marrow oedema in the painful bones. Pain was not explained by other diseases causing foot pain, like reflex sympathetic dystrophy, polyneuropathy, Morton's neuralgia, gout, osteoporosis, avascular necrosis, intermittent claudication, orthopaedic foot deformities, stress fractures, and hyperparathyroidism. The reduction of cyclosporine- or tacrolimus trough levels and the administration of calcium channel blockers led to relief of pain. The Calcineurin-inhibitor Induced Pain Syndrome (CIPS) is a rare but severe side effect of cyclosporine or tacrolimus and is accurately diagnosed by its typical presentation, magnetic resonance imaging and bone scans. Incorrect diagnosis of the syndrome will lead to a significant reduction of life quality in patients suffering from CIPS.","[{'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 30, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'CIPS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 49, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 272, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 304, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 532, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 586, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'reflex sympathetic dystrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 597, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D012019'}, {'text': 'polyneuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 627, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D011115'}, {'text': ""Morton's neuralgia"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 643, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'gout', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 663, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D006073'}, {'text': 'osteoporosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D010024'}, {'text': 'avascular necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 683, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D010020'}, {'text': 'intermittent claudication', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 703, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'D007383'}, {'text': 'foot deformities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 742, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D005530'}, {'text': 'stress fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D015775'}, {'text': 'hyperparathyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 782, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D006961'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 837, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 888, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 930, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 970, 'end': 974, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'CIPS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 985, 'end': 989, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1053, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'CIPS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1270, 'end': 1274, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +353,10520387,The haemodynamic effects of propofol in combination with ephedrine in elderly patients (ASA groups 3 and 4).,"The marked vasodilator and negative inotropic effects of propofol are disadvantages in frail elderly patients.

Of the remainder, a relationship to clioquinol was considered probable in 42 and possible in 69 cases. In six of the probable cases the neurological disturbance consisted of an acute reversible encephalopathy usually related to the ingestion of a high dose of clioquinol over a short period. The most common manifestation, observed in 15 further cases, was isolated optic atrophy. This was most frequently found in children, many of whom had received clioquinol as treatment for acrodermatitis enteropathica. In the remaining cases, a combination of myelopathy, visual disturbance, and peripheral neuropathy was the most common manifestation. Isolated myelopathy or peripheral neuropathy, or these manifestations occurring together, were infrequent. The onset of all manifestations (except toxic encephalopathy) was usually subacute, with subsequent partial recovery. Older subjects tended to display more side effects. The full syndrome of subacute myelo-optic neuropathy was more frequent in women, but they tended to have taken greater quantities of the drug.","[{'text': 'Neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'halogenated hydroxyquinolines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D006912'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 149, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'halogenated hydroxyquinolines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D006912'}, {'text': 'clioquinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 354, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D007464'}, {'text': 'clioquinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 420, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D007464'}, {'text': 'neurological disturbance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 520, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 578, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'clioquinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 644, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D007464'}, {'text': 'optic atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 750, 'end': 763, 'mesh': 'D009896'}, {'text': 'clioquinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 835, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D007464'}, {'text': 'acrodermatitis enteropathica', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 863, 'end': 891, 'mesh': 'C538178'}, {'text': 'myelopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 934, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D013118'}, {'text': 'visual disturbance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 946, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 970, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'myelopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D013118'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1050, 'end': 1071, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1194, 'mesh': 'D001927'}]" +355,11807648,Epileptic seizures following cortical application of fibrin sealants containing tranexamic acid in rats.,"BACKGROUND: Fibrin sealants (FS) derived from human plasma are frequently used in neurosurgery. In order to increase clot stability, FS typically contain aprotinin, a natural fibrinolysis inhibitor. Recently, synthetic fibrinolysis inhibitors such as tranexamic acid (tAMCA) have been considered as substitutes for aprotinin. However, tAMCA has been shown to cause epileptic seizures. We wanted to study whether tAMCA retains its convulsive action if incorporated into a FS. METHOD: FS containing aprotinin or different concentrations of tAMCA (0.5-47.5 mg/ml) were applied to the pial surface of the cortex of anaesthetized rats. The response of the animals was evaluated using electroencephalography and by monitoring the clinical behaviour during and after recovery from anaesthesia. FINDINGS: FS containing tAMCA caused paroxysmal brain activity which was associated with distinct convulsive behaviours. The degree of these seizures increased with increasing concentration of tAMCA. Thus, FS containing 47.5 mg/ml tAMCA evoked generalized seizures in all tested rats (n=6) while the lowest concentration of tAMCA (0.5 mg/ml) only evoked brief episodes of jerk-correlated convulsive potentials in 1 of 6 rats. In contrast, FS containing aprotinin did not evoke any paroxysmal activity. INTERPRETATION: Tranexamic acid retains its convulsive action within FS. Thus, use of FS containing tAMCA for surgery within or close to the CNS may pose a substantial risk to the patient.","[{'text': 'Epileptic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 356, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 373, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 440, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'epileptic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 470, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 517, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 535, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 643, 'end': 648, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 916, 'end': 921, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 990, 'end': 1000, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1033, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1085, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1123, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'generalized seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1156, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1216, 'end': 1221, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1280, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1410, 'end': 1425, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tAMCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1494, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D014148'}]" +356,14596845,A diet promoting sugar dependency causes behavioral cross-sensitization to a low dose of amphetamine.,"Previous research in this laboratory has shown that a diet of intermittent excessive sugar consumption produces a state with neurochemical and behavioral similarities to drug dependency. The present study examined whether female rats on various regimens of sugar access would show behavioral cross-sensitization to a low dose of amphetamine. After a 30-min baseline measure of locomotor activity (day 0), animals were maintained on a cyclic diet of 12-h deprivation followed by 12-h access to 10% sucrose solution and chow pellets (12 h access starting 4 h after onset of the dark period) for 21 days. Locomotor activity was measured again for 30 min at the beginning of days 1 and 21 of sugar access. Beginning on day 22, all rats were maintained on ad libitum chow. Nine days later locomotor activity was measured in response to a single low dose of amphetamine (0.5 mg/kg). The animals that had experienced cyclic sucrose and chow were hyperactive in response to amphetamine compared with four control groups (ad libitum 10% sucrose and chow followed by amphetamine injection, cyclic chow followed by amphetamine injection, ad libitum chow with amphetamine, or cyclic 10% sucrose and chow with a saline injection). These results suggest that a diet comprised of alternating deprivation and access to a sugar solution and chow produces bingeing on sugar that leads to a long lasting state of increased sensitivity to amphetamine, possibly due to a lasting alteration in the dopamine system.","[{'text': 'sugar dependency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 17, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D019966'}, {'text': 'behavioral cross-sensitization', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 41, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 89, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'drug dependency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 272, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D019966'}, {'text': 'behavioral cross-sensitization', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 431, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'sucrose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 606, 'mesh': 'D013395'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'sucrose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D013395'}, {'text': 'hyperactive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1041, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1079, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'sucrose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1130, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D013395'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1261, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'sucrose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D013395'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1521, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1578, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +357,6666578,D-penicillamine-induced angiopathy in rats. The effect of high dose D-penicillamine treatment on aortic permeability to albumin and on the ultrastructure of the vessel.,"Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with D-penicillamine (D-pen) 500 mg/kg/day for 10 or 42 days. Pair fed rats served as controls. Changes in aortic morphology were examined by light- and transmission-electron microscopy (TEM). In addition, the endothelial permeability and the penetration through the aortic wall of albumin were studied 10 minutes, 24 and 48 hours after i. v. injection of human serum 131I-albumin (131I-HSA). TEM revealed extensive elastolysis in the arterial wall of D-pen-treated rats, consistent with an inhibitory effect on crosslink formation. In experimental animals excess deposition of collagen and glycoaminoglycans was observed in the subendothelial and medial layer of the aortic wall, together with prominent basal membrane substance around aortic smooth muscle cells. The aorta/serum-ratio and the radioactive build-up 24 and 48 hours after injection of 131I-HSA was reduced in animals treated with D-pen for 42 days, indicating an impeded transmural transport of tracer which may be caused by a steric exclusion effect of abundant hyaluronate. The endothelial ultrastructure was unaffected by D-pen, and no differences in aortic 131I-HSA radioactivity or aorta/serum-ratio were recorded between experimental and control groups 10 minutes after tracer injection, indicating that the permeability of the endothelial barrier to albumin remained unaffected by D-pen treatment. These observations support the hypothesis that treatment with high doses of D-pen may induce a fibroproliferative response in rat aorta, possibly by an inhibitory effect on the cross-linking of collagen and elastin.","[{'text': 'D-penicillamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'angiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 24, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D001018'}, {'text': 'D-penicillamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'D-penicillamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 212, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'D-pen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 229, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'D-pen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 659, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'D-pen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'hyaluronate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1236, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D006820'}, {'text': 'D-pen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'D-pen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1561, 'end': 1566, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'D-pen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1654, 'end': 1659, 'mesh': 'D010396'}]" +358,11279304,Brain natriuretic peptide is a predictor of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity.,"Anthracyclines are effective antineoplastic drugs, but they frequently cause dose-related cardiotoxicity. The cardiotoxicity of conventional anthracycline therapy highlights a need to search for methods that are highly sensitive and capable of predicting cardiac dysfunction. We measured the plasma level of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) to determine whether BNP might serve as a simple diagnostic indicator of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity in patients with acute leukemia treated with a daunorubicin (DNR)-containing regimen. Thirteen patients with acute leukemia were treated with a DNR-containing regimen. Cardiac functions were evaluated with radionuclide angiography before chemotherapies. The plasma levels of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and BNP were measured at the time of radionuclide angiography. Three patients developed congestive heart failure after the completion of chemotherapy. Five patients were diagnosed as having subclinical heart failure after the completion of chemotherapy. The plasma levels of BNP in all the patients with clinical and subclinical heart failure increased above the normal limit (40 pg/ml) before the detection of clinical or subclinical heart failure by radionuclide angiography. On the other hand, BNP did not increase in the patients without heart failure given DNR, even at more than 700 mg/m(2). The plasma level of ANP did not always increase in all the patients with clinical and subclinical heart failure. These preliminary results suggest that BNP may be useful as an early and sensitive indicator of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity.","[{'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'Anthracyclines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 172, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 495, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 517, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'acute leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 549, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D015470'}, {'text': 'daunorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 579, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'DNR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 593, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'acute leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 641, 'end': 655, 'mesh': 'D015470'}, {'text': 'DNR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 676, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'congestive heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 928, 'end': 952, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1042, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1169, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1275, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1382, 'end': 1395, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'DNR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1402, 'end': 1405, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1549, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1647, 'end': 1660, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1669, 'end': 1683, 'mesh': 'D066126'}]" +359,19884587,Antibacterial medication use during pregnancy and risk of birth defects: National Birth Defects Prevention Study.,"OBJECTIVE: To estimate the association between antibacterial medications and selected birth defects. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Population-based, multisite, case-control study of women who had pregnancies affected by 1 of more than 30 eligible major birth defects identified via birth defect surveillance programs in 10 states (n = 13 155) and control women randomly selected from the same geographical regions (n = 4941). MAIN EXPOSURE: Reported maternal use of antibacterials (1 month before pregnancy through the end of the first trimester). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Odds ratios (ORs) measuring the association between antibacterial use and selected birth defects adjusted for potential confounders. RESULTS: The reported use of antibacterials increased during pregnancy, peaking during the third month. Sulfonamides were associated with anencephaly (adjusted OR [AOR] = 3.4; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.3-8.8), hypoplastic left heart syndrome (AOR = 3.2; 95% CI, 1.3-7.6), coarctation of the aorta (AOR = 2.7; 95% CI, 1.3-5.6), choanal atresia (AOR = 8.0; 95% CI, 2.7-23.5), transverse limb deficiency (AOR = 2.5; 95% CI, 1.0-5.9), and diaphragmatic hernia (AOR = 2.4; 95% CI, 1.1-5.4). Nitrofurantoins were associated with anophthalmia or microphthalmos (AOR = 3.7; 95% CI, 1.1-12.2), hypoplastic left heart syndrome (AOR = 4.2; 95% CI, 1.9-9.1), atrial septal defects (AOR = 1.9; 95% CI, 1.1-3.4), and cleft lip with cleft palate (AOR = 2.1; 95% CI, 1.2-3.9). Other antibacterial agents that showed associations included erythromycins (2 defects), penicillins (1 defect), cephalosporins (1 defect), and quinolones (1 defect). CONCLUSIONS: Reassuringly, penicillins, erythromycins, and cephalosporins, although used commonly by pregnant women, were not associated with many birth defects. Sulfonamides and nitrofurantoins were associated with several birth defects, indicating a need for additional scrutiny.","[{'text': 'birth defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'Birth Defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 82, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'birth defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 200, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'birth defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 372, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'birth defect', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 401, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'birth defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 772, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'Sulfonamides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D013449'}, {'text': 'anencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 960, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D000757'}, {'text': 'hypoplastic left heart syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D018636'}, {'text': 'coarctation of the aorta', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D001017'}, {'text': 'choanal atresia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D002754'}, {'text': 'transverse limb deficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1202, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D017880'}, {'text': 'diaphragmatic hernia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D006548'}, {'text': 'Nitrofurantoins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1314, 'end': 1329, 'mesh': 'D009582'}, {'text': 'anophthalmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D000853'}, {'text': 'microphthalmos', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1367, 'end': 1381, 'mesh': 'D008850'}, {'text': 'hypoplastic left heart syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1444, 'mesh': 'D018636'}, {'text': 'atrial septal defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1496, 'mesh': 'D006344'}, {'text': 'cleft lip', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1540, 'mesh': 'D002971'}, {'text': 'cleft palate', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1546, 'end': 1558, 'mesh': 'D002972'}, {'text': 'erythromycins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1650, 'end': 1663, 'mesh': 'D004917'}, {'text': 'penicillins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1677, 'end': 1688, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'cephalosporins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1701, 'end': 1715, 'mesh': 'D002511'}, {'text': 'quinolones', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1732, 'end': 1742, 'mesh': 'D015363'}, {'text': 'penicillins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1782, 'end': 1793, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'erythromycins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1795, 'end': 1808, 'mesh': 'D004917'}, {'text': 'cephalosporins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1814, 'end': 1828, 'mesh': 'D002511'}, {'text': 'birth defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1902, 'end': 1915, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'Sulfonamides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1917, 'end': 1929, 'mesh': 'D013449'}, {'text': 'nitrofurantoins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1934, 'end': 1949, 'mesh': 'D009582'}, {'text': 'birth defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1979, 'end': 1992, 'mesh': 'D000014'}]" +360,3970039,Incidence of neoplasms in patients with rheumatoid arthritis exposed to different treatment regimens.,"Immunosuppressive drugs have been used during the last 30 years in treatment of patients with severe rheumatoid arthritis. The drugs commonly used are cyclophosphamide and chlorambucil (alkylating agents), azathioprine (purine analogue), and methotrexate (folic acid analogue). There is evidence that all four immunosuppressive drugs can reduce synovitis, but disease activity almost always recurs after therapy is stopped. Since adverse reactions are frequent, less than 50 percent of patients are able to continue a particular drug for more than one year. Since it takes three to 12 months to achieve maximal effects, those patients who are unable to continue the drug receive little benefit from it. Patients treated with alkylating agents have an increased risk of development of acute nonlymphocytic leukemia, and both alkylating agents and azathioprine are associated with the development of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Cyclophosphamide therapy increases the risk of carcinoma of the bladder. There have been several long-term studies of patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with azathioprine and cyclophosphamide and the incidence of most of the common cancers is not increased. Data on the possible increased risk of malignancy in rheumatoid arthritis are still being collected, and until further information is available, the use of immunosuppressive drugs, particularly alkylating agents, in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis should be reserved for patients with severe progressive disease or life-threatening complications.","[{'text': 'neoplasms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 13, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D001172'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 203, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D001172'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'chlorambucil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D002699'}, {'text': 'alkylating agents', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 305, 'mesh': 'D000477'}, {'text': 'azathioprine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D001379'}, {'text': 'purine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 322, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D011687'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 344, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 358, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'synovitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 447, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D013585'}, {'text': 'alkylating agents', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 827, 'end': 844, 'mesh': 'D000477'}, {'text': 'acute nonlymphocytic leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 886, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D015470'}, {'text': 'alkylating agents', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D000477'}, {'text': 'azathioprine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 948, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D001379'}, {'text': ""non-Hodgkin's lymphoma"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1000, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D008228'}, {'text': 'Cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1040, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D001172'}, {'text': 'azathioprine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1202, 'mesh': 'D001379'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1223, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1264, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'malignancy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1329, 'end': 1339, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D001172'}, {'text': 'alkylating agents', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1484, 'end': 1501, 'mesh': 'D000477'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1523, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D001172'}]" +361,424937,Patterns of hepatic injury induced by methyldopa.,"Twelve patients with liver disease related to methyldopa were seen between 1967 and 1977.

To date, 23 men with a median age of 50 years and good performance status have entered the trial. Primary tumor sites were oropharynx, 10 patients; hypopharynx, four; larynx, two; oral cavity, three; unknown primary, two; and nasal cavity and parotid gland, one each. Of 20 patients evaluable for toxicity, four had stage III and 16 had stage IV disease. Treatment, given every 21 days for a maximum of three cycles, consisted of paclitaxel by 3-hour infusion followed the next day by a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m2). The dose levels incorporate escalating paclitaxel doses, and intrapatient escalations within a given dose level are permitted if toxicity permits. At the time of this writing, dose level 4 (260, 270, and 280 mg/m2) is being evaluated; three patients from this level are evaluable. With paclitaxel doses of 200 mg/m2 and higher, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor 5 micrograms/kg/d is given (days 4 through 12). Of 18 patients evaluable for response, seven (39%) achieved a complete response and six (33%) achieved a partial response. Three patients had no change and disease progressed in two. The overall response rate is 72%. Eleven responding patients had subsequent surgery/radiotherapy or radical radiotherapy. Two pathologic complete responses were observed in patients who had achieved clinical complete responses. Alopecia, paresthesias, and arthralgias/myalgias have occurred frequently, but with one exception (a grade 3 myalgia) they have been grade 1 or 2. No dose-limiting hematologic toxicity has been seen. Paclitaxel/cisplatin is an effective first-line regimen for locoregionally advanced head and neck cancer and continued study is warranted. Results thus far suggest no dose-response effect for paclitaxel doses above 200 mg/m2.","[{'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'head and neck cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 74, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D006258'}, {'text': 'head and neck carcinomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 156, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D006258'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 323, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'Taxol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 335, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'head and neck cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 433, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D006258'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 463, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'ovarian cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 582, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D010051'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 677, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 734, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'head and neck carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 850, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D006258'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 981, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1172, 'end': 1180, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1305, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1376, 'end': 1385, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1437, 'end': 1447, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1527, 'end': 1535, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1684, 'end': 1694, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'Alopecia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2223, 'end': 2231, 'mesh': 'D000505'}, {'text': 'paresthesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2233, 'end': 2245, 'mesh': 'D010292'}, {'text': 'arthralgias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2251, 'end': 2262, 'mesh': 'D018771'}, {'text': 'myalgias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2263, 'end': 2271, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2332, 'end': 2339, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2399, 'end': 2407, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2423, 'end': 2433, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2434, 'end': 2443, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'head and neck cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2507, 'end': 2527, 'mesh': 'D006258'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2615, 'end': 2625, 'mesh': 'D017239'}]" +363,2224762,A phase I study of 4'-0-tetrahydropyranyladriamycin. Clinical pharmacology and pharmacokinetics.,"A Phase I study of intravenous (IV) bolus 4'-0-tetrahydropyranyladriamycin (Pirarubicin) was done in 55 patients in good performance status with refractory tumors. Twenty-six had minimal prior therapy (good risk), 23 had extensive prior therapy (poor risk), and six had renal and/or hepatic dysfunction. A total of 167 courses at doses of 15 to 70 mg/m2 were evaluable. Maximum tolerated dose in good-risk patients was 70 mg/m2, and in poor-risk patients, 60 mg/m2. The dose-limiting toxic effect was transient noncumulative granulocytopenia. Granulocyte nadir was on day 14 (range, 4-22). Less frequent toxic effects included thrombocytopenia, anemia, nausea, mild alopecia, phlebitis, and mucositis. Myelosuppression was more in patients with hepatic dysfunction. Pharmacokinetic analyses in 21 patients revealed Pirarubicin plasma T 1/2 alpha (+/- SE) of 2.5 +/- 0.85 minutes, T beta 1/2 of 25.6 +/- 6.5 minutes, and T 1/2 gamma of 23.6 +/- 7.6 hours. The area under the curve was 537 +/- 149 ng/ml x hours, volume of distribution (Vd) 3504 +/- 644 l/m2, and total clearance (ClT) was 204 + 39.3 l/hour/m2. Adriamycinol, doxorubicin, adriamycinone, and tetrahydropyranyladriamycinol were the metabolites detected in plasma and the amount of doxorubicin was less than or equal to 10% of the total metabolites. Urinary excretion of Pirarubicin in the first 24 hours was less than or equal to 10%. Activity was noted in mesothelioma, leiomyosarcoma, and basal cell carcinoma. The recommended starting dose for Phase II trials is 60 mg/m2 IV bolus every 3 weeks.","[{'text': ""4'-0-tetrahydropyranyladriamycin"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'C027260'}, {'text': ""4'-0-tetrahydropyranyladriamycin"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'C027260'}, {'text': 'Pirarubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'C027260'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 253, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'granulocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 622, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D000380'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 724, 'end': 740, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 742, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 750, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'alopecia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 763, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D000505'}, {'text': 'phlebitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 773, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D010689'}, {'text': 'mucositis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 788, 'end': 797, 'mesh': 'D052016'}, {'text': 'Myelosuppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 799, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'hepatic dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 842, 'end': 861, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'Pirarubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 912, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'C027260'}, {'text': 'Adriamycinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'C010013'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1232, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'adriamycinone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'C010012'}, {'text': 'tetrahydropyranyladriamycinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1253, 'end': 1282, 'mesh': 'C027260'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1341, 'end': 1352, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Pirarubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1441, 'mesh': 'C027260'}, {'text': 'mesothelioma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1517, 'end': 1529, 'mesh': 'D008654'}, {'text': 'leiomyosarcoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1545, 'mesh': 'D007890'}, {'text': 'basal cell carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D002280'}]" +364,2440413,Differential effects of gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (lindane) on pharmacologically-induced seizures.,"Gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (gamma-HCH), the active ingredient of the insecticide lindane, has been shown to decrease seizure threshold to pentylenetrazol (PTZ) 3 h after exposure to gamma-HCH and conversely increase threshold to PTZ-induced seizures 24 h after exposure to gamma-HCH (Vohland et al. 1981). In this study, the severity of response to other seizure-inducing agents was tested in mice 1 and 24 h after intraperitoneal administration of 80 mg/kg gamma-HCH. One hour after the administration of gamma-HCH, the activity of seizure-inducing agents was increased, regardless of their mechanism, while 24 h after gamma-HCH a differential response was observed. Seizure activity due to PTZ and picrotoxin (PTX) was significantly decreased; however, seizure activity due to 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA), bicuculline (BCC), methyl 6,7-dimethoxy-4-ethyl-B-carboline-3-carboxylate (DMCM), or strychnine (STR) was not different from control. In vitro, gamma-HCH, pentylenetetrazol and picrotoxin were shown to inhibit 3H-TBOB binding in mouse whole brain, with IC50 values of 4.6, 404 and 9.4 microM, respectively. MPA, BCC, DMCM, and STR showed no inhibition of 3H-TBOB (t-butyl bicyclo-orthobenzoate) binding at concentrations of 100 micron. The pharmacological challenge data suggest that tolerance may occur to seizure activity induced by PTZ and PTX 24 h after gamma-HCH, since the response to only these two seizure-inducing agents is decreased. The in vitro data suggest that the site responsible for the decrease in seizure activity 24 h after gamma-HCH may be the GABA-A receptor-linked chloride channel.","[{'text': 'gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 53, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 130, 'end': 139, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 183, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 257, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 284, 'end': 293, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 343, 'end': 351, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 375, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 457, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 569, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 608, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 635, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 722, 'end': 731, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'Seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 770, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 797, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'picrotoxin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 802, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D010852'}, {'text': 'PTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 814, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'D010852'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 857, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': '3-mercaptopropionic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 881, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D015097'}, {'text': 'MPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D015097'}, {'text': 'bicuculline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 913, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'D001640'}, {'text': 'BCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'D001640'}, {'text': 'methyl 6,7-dimethoxy-4-ethyl-B-carboline-3-carboxylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 932, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'C034818'}, {'text': 'DMCM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'C034818'}, {'text': 'strychnine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 998, 'end': 1008, 'mesh': 'D013331'}, {'text': 'STR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'D013331'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1057, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'pentylenetetrazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'picrotoxin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D010852'}, {'text': '3H-TBOB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1123, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'C046308'}, {'text': 'MPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1220, 'end': 1223, 'mesh': 'D015097'}, {'text': 'BCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1225, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D001640'}, {'text': 'DMCM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1234, 'mesh': 'C034818'}, {'text': 'STR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1240, 'end': 1243, 'mesh': 'D013331'}, {'text': '3H-TBOB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'C046308'}, {'text': 't-butyl bicyclo-orthobenzoate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'C046308'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1420, 'end': 1427, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1448, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'PTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1456, 'end': 1459, 'mesh': 'D010852'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1471, 'end': 1480, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1519, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1629, 'end': 1636, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'gamma-HCH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1657, 'end': 1666, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1678, 'end': 1682, 'mesh': 'D005680'}]" +365,12483326,Severe ocular and orbital toxicity after intracarotid injection of carboplatin for recurrent glioblastomas.,"BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma is a malignant tumor that occurs in the cerebrum during adulthood. With current treatment regimens including combined surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, the average life expectancy of the patients is limited to approximately 1 year. Therefore, patients with glioblastoma sometimes have intracarotid injection of carcinostatics added to the treatment regimen. Generally, carboplatin is said to have milder side effects than cisplatin, whose ocular and orbital toxicity are well known. However, we experienced a case of severe ocular and orbital toxicity after intracarotid injection of carboplatin, which is infrequently reported. CASE: A 58-year-old man received an intracarotid injection of carboplatin for recurrent glioblastomas in his left temporal lobe. He complained of pain and visual disturbance in the ipsilateral eye 30 h after the injection. Various ocular symptoms and findings caused by carboplatin toxicity were seen. RESULTS: He was treated with intravenous administration of corticosteroids and glycerin for 6 days after the injection. Although the intraocular pressure elevation caused by secondary acute angle-closure glaucoma decreased and ocular pain diminished, inexorable papilledema and exudative retinal detachment continued for 3 weeks. Finally, 6 weeks later, diffuse chorioretinal atrophy with optic atrophy occurred and the vision in his left eye was lost. CONCLUSION: When performing intracarotid injection of carboplatin, we must be aware of its potentially blinding ocular toxicity. It is recommended that further studies and investigations are undertaken in the effort to minimize such severe side effects.","[{'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 67, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'glioblastomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 93, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D005909'}, {'text': 'Glioblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 120, 'end': 132, 'mesh': 'D005909'}, {'text': 'malignant tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'glioblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 393, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D005909'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 505, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 558, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 720, 'end': 731, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 827, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'glioblastomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 853, 'end': 866, 'mesh': 'D005909'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1047, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'glycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1146, 'end': 1154, 'mesh': 'D005990'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'ocular pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D058447'}, {'text': 'papilledema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1329, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D010211'}, {'text': 'retinal detachment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1373, 'mesh': 'D012163'}, {'text': 'chorioretinal atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1429, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'C566236'}, {'text': 'optic atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1456, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D009896'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1585, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'ocular toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1632, 'end': 1647, 'mesh': 'D005128'}]" +366,1664218,Phase II study of the amsacrine analogue CI-921 (NSC 343499) in non-small cell lung cancer.,"CI-921 (NSC 343499; 9-[[2-methoxy-4-[(methylsulphonyl)amino]phenyl]amino] -N,5-dimethyl- 4-acridinecarboxamide) is a topoisomerase II poison with high experimental antitumour activity. It was administered by 15 min infusion to 16 evaluable patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (7 with no prior treatment, 9 patients in relapse following surgery/radiotherapy) at a dose (648 mg/m2 divided over 3 days, repeated every 3 weeks) determined by phase I trial. Patients had a median performance status of 1 (WHO), and median age of 61 years. The histology comprised squamous carcinoma (11), adenocarcinoma (1), mixed histology (2), bronchio-alveolar carcinoma (1) and large cell undifferentiated carcinoma (1).

We used an in vitro model of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy that closely mimic the in vivo condition by exposing primary cultures of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sensory neurons to paclitaxel and cisplatin, two widely used and highly effective chemotherapeutic drugs. This approach allowed investigating the efficacy of alpha-lipoic acid in preventing axonal damage and apoptosis and the function and ultrastructural morphology of mitochondria after exposure to toxic agents and alpha-lipoic acid. Our results demonstrate that both cisplatin and paclitaxel cause early mitochondrial impairment with loss of membrane potential and induction of autophagic vacuoles in neurons. Alpha-lipoic acid exerts neuroprotective effects against chemotherapy induced neurotoxicity in sensory neurons: it rescues the mitochondrial toxicity and induces the expression of frataxin, an essential mitochondrial protein with anti-oxidant and chaperone properties. In conclusion mitochondrial toxicity is an early common event both in paclitaxel and cisplatin induced neurotoxicity. Alpha-lipoic acid protects sensory neurons through its anti-oxidant and mitochondrial regulatory functions, possibly inducing the expression of frataxin. These findings suggest that alpha-lipoic acid might reduce the risk of developing peripheral nerve toxicity in patients undergoing chemotherapy and encourage further confirmatory clinical trials.","[{'text': 'Alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 52, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 95, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'toxic neurodegenerative cascade', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 330, 'end': 347, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 433, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 574, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 589, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 713, 'end': 730, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'axonal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 745, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 872, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 925, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 962, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'Alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1146, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1195, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1373, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1407, 'end': 1417, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1431, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1440, 'end': 1453, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'Alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'alpha-lipoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1637, 'end': 1654, 'mesh': 'D008063'}, {'text': 'peripheral nerve toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1691, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D010523'}]" +368,17020434,Optimising stroke prevention in non-valvular atrial fibrillation.,"Atrial fibrillation is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Pooled data from trials comparing antithrombotic treatment with placebo have shown that warfarin reduces the risk of stroke by 62%, and that aspirin alone reduces the risk by 22%. Overall, in high-risk patients, warfarin is superior to aspirin in preventing strokes, with a relative risk reduction of 36%. Ximelagatran, an oral direct thrombin inhibitor, was found to be as efficient as vitamin K antagonist drugs in the prevention of embolic events, but has been recently withdrawn because of abnormal liver function tests. The ACTIVE-W (Atrial Fibrillation Clopidogrel Trial with Irbesartan for Prevention of Vascular Events) study has demonstrated that warfarin is superior to platelet therapy (clopidogrel plus aspirin) in the prevention af embolic events. Idraparinux, a Factor Xa inhibitor, is being evaluated in patients with atrial fibrillation. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor-blocking drugs hold promise in atrial fibrillation through cardiac remodelling. Preliminary studies suggest that statins could interfere with the risk of recurrence after electrical cardioversion. Finally, percutaneous methods for the exclusion of left atrial appendage are under investigation in high-risk patients.","[{'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 11, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 230, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 259, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 283, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 354, 'end': 362, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'strokes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 400, 'end': 407, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'Ximelagatran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'C426686'}, {'text': 'vitamin K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 529, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D014812'}, {'text': 'embolic events', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 577, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D004617'}, {'text': 'abnormal liver function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 636, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'Atrial Fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 681, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Clopidogrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 701, 'end': 712, 'mesh': 'C055162'}, {'text': 'Irbesartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 724, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'C081309'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 798, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'clopidogrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 840, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'C055162'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'embolic events', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 887, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D004617'}, {'text': 'Idraparinux', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 903, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'C479958'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 975, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 996, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1041, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'cardiac remodelling', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D020257'}, {'text': 'statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1185, 'mesh': 'D019821'}]" +369,3865016,Interaction of cyclosporin A with antineoplastic agents.,"A synergistic effect of etoposide and cyclosporin A was observed in a patient with acute T-lymphocytic leukemia in relapse.

There is a need for a well-defined animal model in which these blood dyscrasias can be studied. In four subacute toxicity studies, the intravenous administration of cefonicid or cefazedone to beagle dogs caused a dose-dependent incidence of anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia after 1-3 months of treatment. A nonregenerative anemia was the most compromising of the cytopenias and occurred in approximately 50% of dogs receiving 400-500 mg/kg cefonicid or 540-840 mg/kg cefazedone. All three cytopenias were completely reversible following cessation of treatment; the time required for recovery of the erythron (approximately 1 month) was considerably longer than that of the granulocytes and platelets (hours to a few days). Upon rechallenge with either cephalosporin, the hematologic syndrome was reproduced in most dogs tested; cefonicid (but not cefazedone)-treated dogs showed a substantially reduced induction period (15 +/- 5 days) compared to that of the first exposure to the drug (61 +/- 24 days). This observation, along with the rapid rate of decline in red cell mass parameters of affected dogs, suggests that a hemolytic component complicated the red cell production problem and that multiple toxicologic mechanisms contributed to the cytopenia. We conclude that the administration of high doses of cefonicid or cefazedone to dogs can induce hematotoxicity similar to the cephalosporin-induced blood dyscrasias described in man and thus provides a useful model for studying the mechanisms of these disorders.","[{'text': 'cefonicid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D015790'}, {'text': 'cefazedone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'C021341'}, {'text': 'cephalosporin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 85, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D002511'}, {'text': 'hematotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 99, 'end': 113, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'Cephalosporin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D002511'}, {'text': 'hematologic disturbances', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 167, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'blood dyscrasias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 338, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 388, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cefonicid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 440, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D015790'}, {'text': 'cefazedone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 453, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'C021341'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 516, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 524, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 541, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 607, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'cytopenias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 647, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'cefonicid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 724, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D015790'}, {'text': 'cefazedone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 751, 'end': 761, 'mesh': 'C021341'}, {'text': 'cytopenias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 773, 'end': 783, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'cephalosporin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D002511'}, {'text': 'hematologic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1075, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'cefonicid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D015790'}, {'text': 'cefazedone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1131, 'end': 1141, 'mesh': 'C021341'}, {'text': 'hemolytic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1406, 'end': 1415, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'cytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'cefonicid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1594, 'end': 1603, 'mesh': 'D015790'}, {'text': 'cefazedone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1617, 'mesh': 'C021341'}, {'text': 'hematotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1637, 'end': 1651, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'cephalosporin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1667, 'end': 1680, 'mesh': 'D002511'}, {'text': 'blood dyscrasias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1689, 'end': 1705, 'mesh': 'D006402'}]" +371,150790,A pyridoxine-dependent behavioral disorder unmasked by isoniazid.,"A 3-year-old girl had behavioral deterioration, with hyperkinesis, irritability, and sleeping difficulties after the therapeutic administration of isoniazid.

Current clinical experience.,"Lovastatin and simvastatin are the 2 best-known members of the class of hypolipidaemic agents known as HMG CoA reductase inhibitors. Clinical experience with lovastatin includes over 5000 patients, 700 of whom have been treated for 2 years or more, and experience with simvastatin includes over 3500 patients, of whom 350 have been treated for 18 months or more. Lovastatin has been marketed in the United States for over 6 months. Both agents show substantial clinical efficacy, with reductions in total cholesterol of over 30% and in LDL-cholesterol of 40% in clinical studies. Modest increases in HDL-cholesterol levels of about 10% are also reported. Clinical tolerability of both agents has been good, with fewer than 3% of patients withdrawn from treatment because of clinical adverse experiences. Ophthalmological examinations in over 1100 patients treated with one or the other agent have revealed no evidence of significant short term (up to 2 years) cataractogenic potential. One to 2% of patients have elevations of serum transaminases to greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal. These episodes are asymptomatic and reversible when therapy is discontinued. Minor elevations of creatine kinase levels are reported in about 5% of patients. Myopathy, associated in some cases with myoglobinuria, and in 2 cases with transient renal failure, has been rarely reported with lovastatin, especially in patients concomitantly treated with cyclosporin, gemfibrozil or niacin. Lovastatin and simvastatin are both effective and well-tolerated agents for lowering elevated levels of serum cholesterol. As wider use confirms their safety profile, they will gain increasing importance in the therapeutic approach to hypercholesterolaemia and its consequences.","[{'text': 'Lovastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D008148'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'lovastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 217, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D008148'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 328, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'Lovastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D008148'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 564, 'end': 575, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 674, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'Myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1315, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'myoglobinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1368, 'mesh': 'D009212'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1400, 'end': 1413, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'lovastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1455, 'mesh': 'D008148'}, {'text': 'cyclosporin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1518, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'gemfibrozil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1520, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D015248'}, {'text': 'niacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D009525'}, {'text': 'Lovastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1543, 'end': 1553, 'mesh': 'D008148'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1653, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'hypercholesterolaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1778, 'end': 1799, 'mesh': 'D006937'}]" +375,2894766,Sulfasalazine-induced lupus erythematosus.,"Pneumonitis, bilateral pleural effusions, echocardiographic evidence of cardiac tamponade, and positive autoantibodies developed in a 43-year-old man, who was receiving long-term sulfasalazine therapy for chronic ulcerative colitis.

Fentanyl is a commonly used supplement that may contribute to this, although it may also improve analgesia. METHODS: This double-blind study examined the incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting and pain in the first 24 h after sevoflurane anaesthesia in 216 adult day surgery patients. Patients were randomly allocated to either receive or not receive 1 1 fentanyl, while a third group received dexamethasone in addition to fentanyl. RESULTS: Omission of fentanyl did not reduce the overall incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, but did reduce the incidence of vomiting and/or moderate to severe nausea prior to discharge from 20% and 17% with fentanyl and fentanyl-dexamethasone, respectively, to 5% (P = 0.013). Antiemetic requirements were reduced from 24% and 31% to 7% (P = 0.0012). Dexamethasone had no significant effect on the incidence or severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Combining the two fentanyl groups revealed further significant benefits from the avoidance of opioids, reducing postoperative nausea and vomiting and nausea prior to discharge from 35% and 33% to 22% and 19% (P = 0.049 and P = 0.035), respectively, while nausea in the first 24 h was decreased from 42% to 27% (P = 0.034). Pain severity and analgesic requirements were unaffected by the omission of fentanyl. Fentanyl did reduce minor intraoperative movement but had no sevoflurane-sparing effect and increased respiratory depression, hypotension and bradycardia. CONCLUSION: As fentanyl exacerbated postoperative nausea and vomiting without an improvement in postoperative pain and also had adverse cardiorespiratory effects, it appears to be an unnecessary and possibly detrimental supplement to sevoflurane in day surgery.","[{'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 9, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 201, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'postoperative nausea and vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D020250'}, {'text': 'Fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 267, 'end': 275, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'postoperative nausea and vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 447, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D020250'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 485, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 643, 'end': 651, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 682, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 711, 'end': 719, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'postoperative nausea and vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 791, 'end': 824, 'mesh': 'D020250'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 858, 'end': 866, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 893, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 941, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1085, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'postoperative nausea and vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D020250'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'postoperative nausea and vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D020250'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1447, 'end': 1453, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1515, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1591, 'end': 1599, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'Fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1601, 'end': 1609, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1662, 'end': 1673, 'mesh': 'C009250'}, {'text': 'respiratory depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1703, 'end': 1725, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1727, 'end': 1738, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1743, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1779, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'postoperative nausea and vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1792, 'end': 1825, 'mesh': 'D020250'}, {'text': 'postoperative pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1852, 'end': 1870, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'sevoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1990, 'end': 2001, 'mesh': 'C009250'}]" +379,18186898,Renal Fanconi syndrome and myopathy after liver transplantation: drug-related mitochondrial cytopathy?,"Advances in the field of transplantation provide a better quality of life and allow more favorable conditions for growth and development in children. However, combinations of different therapeutic regimens require consideration of potential adverse reactions. We describe a 15-yr-old girl who had orthotopic liver transplantation because of Wilson's disease. Tacrolimus, MMF, and steroids were given as immunosuppressant. Lamivudine was added because of de nova hepatitis B infection during her follow-up. Three yr after transplantation she developed renal Fanconi syndrome with severe metabolic acidosis, hypophosphatemia, glycosuria, and aminoaciduria. Although tacrolimus was suspected to be the cause of late post-transplant renal acidosis and was replaced by sirolimus, acidosis, and electrolyte imbalance got worse. Proximal muscle weakness has developed during her follow-up. Fanconi syndrome, as well as myopathy, is well recognized in patients with mitochondrial disorders and caused by depletion of mtDNA.

The present study was designed to study the effect of histamine H(3)-receptor ligands on neuroleptic-induced catalepsy, apomorphine-induced climbing behavior and amphetamine-induced locomotor activities in mice. Catalepsy was induced by haloperidol (2 mg/kg p.o.), while apomorphine (1.5 mg/kg s.c.) and amphetamine (2 mg/kg s.c.) were used for studying climbing behavior and locomotor activities, respectively. (R)-alpha-methylhistamine (RAMH) (5 microg i.c.v.) and thioperamide (THP) (15 mg/kg i.p.), per se did not cause catalepsy. Administration of THP (3.75, 7.5 and 15 mg/kg i.p.) 1 h prior to haloperidol resulted in a dose-dependent increase in the catalepsy times (P < 0.05). However, pretreatment with RAMH significantly reversed such an effect of THP (15 mg/kg i.p.). RAMH per se showed significant reduction in locomotor time, distance traveled and average speed but THP (15 mg/kg i.p.) per se had no effect on these parameters. On amphetamine-induced hyperactivity, THP (3.75 and 7.5 mg/kg i.p.) reduced locomotor time, distance traveled and average speed (P < 0.05). Pretreatment with RAMH (5 microg i.c.v.) could partially reverse such effects of THP (3.75 mg/kg i.p.). Climbing behavior induced by apomorphine was reduced in animals treated with THP. Such an effect was, however, reversed in presence of RAMH. THP exhibited an antipsychotic-like profile by potentiating haloperidol-induced catalepsy, reducing amphetamine-induced hyperactivity and reducing apomorphine-induced climbing in mice. Such effects of THP were reversed by RAMH indicating the involvement of histamine H(3)-receptors. Findings suggest a potential for H(3)-receptor antagonists in improving the refractory cases of schizophrenia.","[{'text': 'thioperamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 195, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 264, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 330, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 372, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'Catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 422, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 481, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': '(R)-alpha-methylhistamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 622, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'C069357'}, {'text': 'RAMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 649, 'end': 653, 'mesh': 'C069357'}, {'text': 'thioperamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 677, 'end': 689, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 691, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 734, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 763, 'end': 766, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 810, 'end': 821, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 867, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'RAMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 922, 'end': 926, 'mesh': 'C069357'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 968, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'RAMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 989, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'C069357'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1154, 'end': 1165, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1174, 'end': 1187, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'RAMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'C069357'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1372, 'end': 1375, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1424, 'end': 1435, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1472, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'RAMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1534, 'mesh': 'C069357'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1607, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1616, 'end': 1625, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1636, 'end': 1647, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1656, 'end': 1669, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1683, 'end': 1694, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'THP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1740, 'mesh': 'C052075'}, {'text': 'RAMH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1758, 'end': 1762, 'mesh': 'C069357'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1793, 'end': 1802, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1915, 'end': 1928, 'mesh': 'D012559'}]" +381,14976857,Transient platypnea-orthodeoxia-like syndrome induced by propafenone overdose in a young woman with Ebstein's anomaly.,"In this report we describe the case of a 37-year-old white woman with Ebstein's anomaly, who developed a rare syndrome called platypnea-orthodeoxia, characterized by massive right-to-left interatrial shunting with transient profound hypoxia and cyanosis. This shunt of blood via a patent foramen ovale occurred in the presence of a normal pulmonary artery pressure, and was probably precipitated by a propafenone overdose. This drug caused biventricular dysfunction, due to its negative inotropic effect, and hypotension, due to its peripheral vasodilatory effect. These effects gave rise to an increase in the right atrial pressure and a decrease in the left one with a consequent stretching of the foramen ovale and the creation of massive right-to-left shunting.

Older reports suggest an objective response rate of 8% when 60-120 mg/m2 of cisplatin is administered every 3-4 weeks. Although a dose-response effect has been observed with cisplatin, the dose-limiting toxicities associated with cisplatin (e.g., nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, and neurotoxicity) have limited its use as a treatment for breast carcinoma. WR-2721 or amifostine initially was developed to protect military personnel in the event of nuclear war. Amifostine subsequently was shown to protect normal tissues from the toxic effects of alkylating agents and cisplatin without decreasing the antitumor effect of the chemotherapy. Early trials of cisplatin and amifostine also suggested that the incidence and severity of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, and neuropathy were reduced. METHODS: A Phase II study of the combination of cisplatin plus amifostine was conducted in patients with progressive metastatic breast carcinoma who had received one, but not more than one, chemotherapy regimen for metastatic disease. Patients received amifostine, 910 mg/m2 intravenously over 15 minutes. After completion of the amifostine infusion, cisplatin 120 mg/m2 was administered over 30 minutes. Intravenous hydration and mannitol was administered before and after cisplatin. Treatment was administered every 3 weeks until disease progression. RESULTS: Forty-four patients were enrolled in the study of which 7 (16%) were ineligible. A median of 2 cycles of therapy was administered to the 37 eligible patients. Six partial responses were observed for an overall response rate of 16%. Most patients (57%) stopped treatment because of disease progression. Neurologic toxicity was reported in 52% of patients. Seven different life-threatening toxicities were observed in patients while receiving treatment. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of cisplatin and amifostine in this study resulted in an overall response rate of 16%.

Although the underlying mechanism(s) are not well understood, these effects may involve an increase in acetylcholine (ACh) levels. The present study sought to characterize the cognitive-enhancing effects of the 5-HT(6) antagonist Ro4368554 (3-benzenesulfonyl-7-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)1H-indole) in a rat object recognition task employing a cholinergic (scopolamine pretreatment) and a serotonergic- (tryptophan (TRP) depletion) deficient model, and compared its pattern of action with that of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor metrifonate. Initial testing in a time-dependent forgetting task employing a 24-h delay between training and testing showed that metrifonate improved object recognition (at 10 and 30 mg/kg, p.o.), whereas Ro4368554 was inactive. Both, Ro4368554 (3 and 10 mg/kg, intraperitoneally (i.p.)) and metrifonate (10 mg/kg, p.o., respectively) reversed memory deficits induced by scopolamine and TRP depletion (10 mg/kg, i.p., and 3 mg/kg, p.o., respectively). In conclusion, although Ro4368554 did not improve a time-related retention deficit, it reversed a cholinergic and a serotonergic memory deficit, suggesting that both mechanisms may be involved in the facilitation of object memory by Ro4368554 and, possibly, other 5-HT(6) receptor antagonists.","[{'text': 'Ro4368554', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 40, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'C507242'}, {'text': 'memory deficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 120, 'end': 137, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 165, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 183, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 353, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 368, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 465, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'Ro4368554', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 480, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'C507242'}, {'text': '3-benzenesulfonyl-7-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)1H-indole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 491, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'C507242'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'tryptophan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D014364'}, {'text': 'TRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 664, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D014364'}, {'text': 'metrifonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 780, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D014236'}, {'text': 'metrifonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 909, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D014236'}, {'text': 'Ro4368554', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 985, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'C507242'}, {'text': 'Ro4368554', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'C507242'}, {'text': 'metrifonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D014236'}, {'text': 'memory deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1162, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'TRP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D014364'}, {'text': 'Ro4368554', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1256, 'end': 1265, 'mesh': 'C507242'}, {'text': 'memory deficit', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1361, 'end': 1375, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'Ro4368554', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'C507242'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1496, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D012701'}]" +388,15899738,Lone atrial fibrillation associated with creatine monohydrate supplementation.,"Atrial fibrillation in young patients without structural heart disease is rare. Therefore, when the arrhythmia is present in this population, reversible causes must be identified and resolved. Thyroid disorders, illicit drug or stimulant use, and acute alcohol intoxication are among these causes. We report the case of a 30-year-old Caucasian man who came to the emergency department in atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response. His medical history was unremarkable, except for minor fractures of the fingers and foot. Thyroid-stimulating hormone, magnesium, and potassium levels were within normal limits, urine drug screen was negative, and alcohol use was denied. However, when the patient was questioned about use of herbal products and supplements, the use of creatine monohydrate was revealed. The patient was admitted to the hospital, anticoagulated with unfractionated heparin, and given intravenous diltiazem for rate control and intravenous amiodarone for rate and rhythm control. When discharged less than 24 hours later, he was receiving metoprolol and aspirin, with follow-up plans for echocardiography and nuclear imaging to assess perfusion. Exogenous creatine is used by athletes to theoretically improve exercise performance. Vegetarians may also take creatine to replace what they are not consuming from meat, fish, and other animal products. Previous anecdotal reports have linked creatine to the development of arrhythmia. Clinicians must be diligent when interviewing patients about their drug therapy histories and include questions about their use of herbal products and dietary supplements. In addition, it is important to report adverse effects associated with frequently consumed supplements and herbal products to the Food and Drug Administration and in the literature.","[{'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 5, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'Atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 79, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 136, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 179, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'Thyroid disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 272, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D013959'}, {'text': 'acute alcohol intoxication', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 326, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D000435'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 467, 'end': 486, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 575, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'magnesium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 639, 'end': 648, 'mesh': 'D008274'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 654, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 734, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 968, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 999, 'end': 1008, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1042, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1163, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1258, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1360, 'end': 1368, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1491, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D001145'}]" +389,15863244,Comparison of developmental toxicity of selective and non-selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors in CRL:(WI)WUBR Wistar rats--DFU and piroxicam study.,"BACKGROUND: Cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors are one of the most often ingested drugs during pregnancy. Unlike general toxicity data, their prenatal toxic effects were not extensively studied before. The aim of the experiment was to evaluate the developmental toxicity of the non-selective (piroxicam) and selective (DFU; 5,5-dimethyl-3-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-(4-methylsulphonyl) phenyl-2(5H)-furanon) COX-2 inhibitors. METHODS: Drugs were separately, orally once daily dosed to pregnant rats from day 8 to 21 (GD1=plug day). Doses were set at 0.3, 3.0 and 30.0mg/kg for piroxicam and 0.2, 2.0 and 20.0mg/kg for DFU. Fetuses were delivered on GD 21 and routinely examined. Comprehensive clinical and developmental measurements were done. The pooled statistical analysis for ventricular septal (VSD) and midline (MD) defects was performed for rat fetuses exposed to piroxicam, selective and non-selective COX-2 inhibitor based on present and historic data. RESULTS: Maternal toxicity, intrauterine growth retardation, and increase of external and skeletal variations were found in rats treated with the highest dose of piroxicam. Decrease of fetal length was the only signs of the DFU developmental toxicity observed in pups exposed to the highest compound dose. Lack of teratogenicity was found in piroxicam and DFU-exposed groups. Prenatal exposure to non-selective COX inhibitors increases the risk of VSD and MD when compared to historic control but not with selective COX-2 inhibitors. CONCLUSION: Both selective and non-selective COX-2 inhibitors were toxic for rats fetuses when administered in the highest dose. Unlike DFU, piroxicam was also highly toxic to the dams. Prenatal exposure to selective COX-2 inhibitors does not increase the risk of ventricular septal and midline defects in rat when compared to non-selective drugs and historic control.","[{'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 28, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'DFU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'C106876'}, {'text': 'piroxicam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 142, 'mesh': 'D010894'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 268, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 409, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'piroxicam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 440, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D010894'}, {'text': 'DFU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 466, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'C106876'}, {'text': '5,5-dimethyl-3-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-(4-methylsulphonyl) phenyl-2(5H)-furanon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 471, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'C106876'}, {'text': 'piroxicam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 716, 'end': 725, 'mesh': 'D010894'}, {'text': 'DFU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 757, 'end': 760, 'mesh': 'C106876'}, {'text': 'piroxicam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D010894'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1119, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'intrauterine growth retardation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D005317'}, {'text': 'increase of external and skeletal variations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D009139'}, {'text': 'piroxicam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1272, 'mesh': 'D010894'}, {'text': 'DFU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1328, 'mesh': 'C106876'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1351, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'piroxicam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1443, 'end': 1452, 'mesh': 'D010894'}, {'text': 'DFU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1457, 'end': 1460, 'mesh': 'C106876'}, {'text': 'DFU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1774, 'mesh': 'C106876'}, {'text': 'piroxicam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1776, 'end': 1785, 'mesh': 'D010894'}]" +390,12921865,Protective efficacy of neuroactive steroids against cocaine kindled-seizures in mice.,"Neuroactive steroids demonstrate pharmacological actions that have relevance for a host of neurological and psychiatric disorders. They offer protection against seizures in a range of models and seem to inhibit certain stages of drug dependence in preclinical assessments. The present study was designed to evaluate two endogenous and one synthetic neuroactive steroid that positively modulate the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA(A)) receptor against the increase in sensitivity to the convulsant effects of cocaine engendered by repeated cocaine administration (seizure kindling). Allopregnanolone (3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-pregnan-20-one), pregnanolone (3alpha-hydroxy-5beta-pregnan-20-one) and ganaxolone (a synthetic derivative of allopregnanolone 3alpha-hydroxy-3beta-methyl-5alpha-pregnan-20-one) were tested for their ability to suppress the expression (anticonvulsant effect) and development (antiepileptogenic effect) of cocaine-kindled seizures in male, Swiss-Webster mice. Kindled seizures were induced by daily administration of 60 mg/kg cocaine for 5 days. All of these positive GABA(A) modulators suppressed the expression of kindled seizures, whereas only allopregnanolone and ganaxolone inhibited the development of kindling. Allopregnanolone and pregnanolone, but not ganaxolone, also reduced cumulative lethality associated with kindling. These findings demonstrate that some neuroactive steroids attenuate convulsant and sensitizing properties of cocaine and add to a growing literature on their potential use in the modulation of effects of drugs of abuse.","[{'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 35, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 52, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 68, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 98, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 247, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'drug dependence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 315, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D019966'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'gamma-aminobutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 484, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 509, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 599, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 647, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Allopregnanolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 666, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': '3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-pregnan-20-one', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': 'pregnanolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 723, 'end': 735, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': '3alpha-hydroxy-5beta-pregnan-20-one', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 737, 'end': 772, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': 'ganaxolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 778, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'C105051'}, {'text': 'allopregnanolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 816, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': '3alpha-hydroxy-3beta-methyl-5alpha-pregnan-20-one', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'C105051'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1018, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1081, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1131, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1177, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'allopregnanolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': 'ganaxolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'C105051'}, {'text': 'Allopregnanolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1323, 'end': 1339, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': 'pregnanolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D011280'}, {'text': 'ganaxolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1366, 'end': 1376, 'mesh': 'C105051'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1495, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1547, 'end': 1554, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +391,12584269,"Kidney function and morphology after short-term combination therapy with cyclosporine A, tacrolimus and sirolimus in the rat.","BACKGROUND: Sirolimus (SRL) may supplement calcineurin inhibitors in clinical organ transplantation. These are nephrotoxic, but SRL seems to act differently displaying only minor nephrotoxic effects, although this question is still open. In a number of treatment protocols where SRL was combined with a calcineurin inhibitor indications of a synergistic nephrotoxic effect were described. The aim of this study was to examine further the renal function, including morphological analysis of the kidneys of male Sprague-Dawley rats treated with either cyclosporine A (CsA), tacrolimus (FK506) or SRL as monotherapies or in different combinations. METHODS: For a period of 2 weeks, CsA 15 mg/kg/day (given orally), FK506 3.0 mg/kg/day (given orally) or SRL 0.4 mg/kg/day (given intraperitoneally) was administered once a day as these doses have earlier been found to achieve a significant immunosuppressive effect in Sprague-Dawley rats. In the 'conscious catheterized rat' model, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was measured as the clearance of Cr(EDTA). The morphological analysis of the kidneys included a semi-quantitative scoring system analysing the degree of striped fibrosis, subcapsular fibrosis and the number of basophilic tubules, plus an additional stereological analysis of the total grade of fibrosis in the cortex stained with Sirius Red. RESULTS: CsA, FK506 and SRL all significantly decreased the GFR. A further deterioration was seen when CsA was combined with either FK506 or SRL, whereas the GFR remained unchanged in the group treated with FK506 plus SRL when compared with treatment with any of the single substances. The morphological changes presented a similar pattern. The semi-quantitative scoring was significantly worst in the group treated with CsA plus SRL (P<0.001 compared with controls) and the analysis of the total grade of fibrosis also showed the highest proportion in the same group and was significantly different from controls (P<0.02). The FK506 plus SRL combination showed only a marginally higher degree of fibrosis as compared with controls (P=0.05). CONCLUSION: This rat study demonstrated a synergistic nephrotoxic effect of CsA plus SRL, whereas FK506 plus SRL was better tolerated.","[{'text': 'cyclosporine A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 89, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 104, 'end': 113, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 237, 'end': 248, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 254, 'end': 257, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 305, 'end': 316, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 405, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 491, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 676, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 698, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 710, 'end': 715, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 720, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 805, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 876, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1310, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1332, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1435, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1492, 'end': 1495, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1497, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1586, 'end': 1589, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1615, 'end': 1620, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1624, 'end': 1627, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1690, 'end': 1695, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1701, 'end': 1704, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1904, 'end': 1907, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1913, 'end': 1916, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1989, 'end': 1997, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2111, 'end': 2116, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2122, 'end': 2125, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2180, 'end': 2188, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2279, 'end': 2290, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2301, 'end': 2304, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2310, 'end': 2313, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2323, 'end': 2328, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2334, 'end': 2337, 'mesh': 'D020123'}]" +392,10406016,Effect of fucoidan treatment on collagenase-induced intracerebral hemorrhage in rats.,"Inflammatory cells are postulated to mediate some of the brain damage following ischemic stroke. Intracerebral hemorrhage is associated with more inflammation than ischemic stroke. We tested the sulfated polysaccharide fucoidan, which has been reported to reduce inflammatory brain damage, in a rat model of intracerebral hemorrhage induced by injection of bacterial collagenase into the caudate nucleus. Rats were treated with seven day intravenous infusion of fucoidan (30 micrograms h-1) or vehicle. The hematoma was assessed in vivo by magnetic resonance imaging. Motor behavior, passive avoidance, and skilled forelimb function were tested repeatedly for six weeks. Fucoidan-treated rats exhibited evidence of impaired blood clotting and hemodilution, had larger hematomas, and tended to have less inflammation in the vicinity of the hematoma after three days. They showed significantly more rapid improvement of motor function in the first week following hemorrhage and better memory retention in the passive avoidance test. Acute white matter edema and eventual neuronal loss in the striatum adjacent to the hematoma did not differ between the two groups.

An analysis of the 75 cases that had been adequately followed up suggested that 16, including three deaths, were probably related to treatment with the drug. Of the remainder, 48 were possibly related to treatment, five were unlikely to be so, and six were unclassifiable. The mean age of patients in the 16 probable cases was 57.9, with hepatotoxicity being more common in women. The average duration of treatment before the onset of jaundice was 61 days. None of these well validated cases occurred within the first 10 days after treatment. The results of serum liver function tests suggested hepatocellular injury in 10 (63%); the rest showed a mixed pattern. In contrast, the results of histological examination of the liver often showed evidence of cholestasis. The characteristics of the 48 patients in the possible cases were similar. Allergic manifestations such as rash and eosinophilia were rare. Hepatitis was usually reversible when treatment was stopped, with the results of liver function tests returning to normal after an average of 3.1 months. In two of the three deaths probably associated with ketoconazole treatment the drug had been continued after the onset of jaundice and other symptoms of hepatitis. Clinical and biochemical monitoring at regular intervals for evidence of hepatitis is advised during long term treatment with ketoconazole to prevent possible serious hepatic injury.","[{'text': 'ketoconazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D007654'}, {'text': 'Ketoconazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D007654'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'deaths', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 275, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'deaths', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 621, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'jaundice', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 718, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D007565'}, {'text': 'hepatocellular injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 878, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'cholestasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1037, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D002779'}, {'text': 'rash', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1161, 'mesh': 'D005076'}, {'text': 'eosinophilia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D004802'}, {'text': 'Hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'deaths', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1364, 'end': 1370, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'ketoconazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1396, 'end': 1408, 'mesh': 'D007654'}, {'text': 'jaundice', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1466, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'D007565'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1497, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1581, 'end': 1590, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ketoconazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1634, 'end': 1646, 'mesh': 'D007654'}, {'text': 'hepatic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1675, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D056486'}]" +395,9088814,Combined effects of prolonged prostaglandin E1-induced hypotension and haemodilution on human hepatic function.,"Combined effects of prolonged prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)-induced hypotension and haemodilution on hepatic function were studied in 30 patients undergoing hip surgery.

Haemodilution in groups B and C was produced by withdrawing approximately 1000 mL of blood and replacing it with the same amount of dextran solution, and final haematocrit values were 21 or 22%. Controlled hypotension in groups A and C was induced with PGE1 to maintain mean arterial blood pressure at 55 mmHg for 180 min. Measurements included arterial ketone body ratio (AKBR, aceto-acetate/3-hydroxybutyrate) and clinical hepatic function parameters. AKBR and biological hepatic function tests showed no change throughout the time course in groups A and B. In group C, AKBR showed a significant decrease at 120 min (-40%) and at 180 min (-49%) after the start of hypotension and at 60 min (-32%) after recovery of normotension, and SGOT, SGPT, LDH and total bilirubin showed significant increases after operation. The results suggest that a prolonged combination of more than 120 min of PGE1-induced hypotension and moderate haemodilution would cause impairment of hepatic function.","[{'text': 'prostaglandin E1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D000527'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'haemodilution', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 71, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D020141'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin E1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 142, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D000527'}, {'text': 'PGE1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D000527'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'haemodilution', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 190, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D020141'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 392, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'haemodilution', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 440, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D020141'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 509, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'haemodilution', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 525, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D020141'}, {'text': 'Haemodilution', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 540, 'end': 553, 'mesh': 'D020141'}, {'text': 'dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 672, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D003911'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 746, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'PGE1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 793, 'end': 797, 'mesh': 'D000527'}, {'text': 'aceto-acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 919, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'C016635'}, {'text': '3-hydroxybutyrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 933, 'end': 950, 'mesh': 'D020155'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bilirubin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1310, 'mesh': 'D001663'}, {'text': 'PGE1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1434, 'mesh': 'D000527'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1443, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'haemodilution', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1468, 'end': 1481, 'mesh': 'D020141'}, {'text': 'impairment of hepatic function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1494, 'end': 1524, 'mesh': 'D008107'}]" +396,20880751,Levodopa-induced dyskinesias in patients with Parkinson's disease: filling the bench-to-bedside gap.,"Levodopa is the most effective drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. However, the long-term use of this dopamine precursor is complicated by highly disabling fluctuations and dyskinesias. Although preclinical and clinical findings suggest pulsatile stimulation of striatal postsynaptic receptors as a key mechanism underlying levodopa-induced dyskinesias, their pathogenesis is still unclear. In recent years, evidence from animal models of Parkinson's disease has provided important information to understand the effect of specific receptor and post-receptor molecular mechanisms underlying the development of dyskinetic movements. Recent preclinical and clinical data from promising lines of research focus on the differential role of presynaptic versus postsynaptic mechanisms, dopamine receptor subtypes, ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors, and non-dopaminergic neurotransmitter systems in the pathophysiology of levodopa-induced dyskinesias.","[{'text': 'Levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 17, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 46, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'Levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 214, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 285, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 436, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 453, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 551, 'end': 570, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinetic movements', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 721, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 891, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 947, 'end': 956, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1040, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1057, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +397,20080419,Prevention of seizures and reorganization of hippocampal functions by transplantation of bone marrow cells in the acute phase of experimental epilepsy.,"In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMCs) in a model of epilepsy induced by pilocarpine in rats. BMCs obtained from green fluorescent protein (GFP) transgenic mice or rats were transplanted intravenously after induction of status epilepticus (SE). Spontaneous recurrent seizures (SRS) were monitored using Racine's seizure severity scale. All of the rats in the saline-treated epileptic control group developed SRS, whereas none of the BMC-treated epileptic animals had seizures in the short term (15 days after transplantation), regardless of the BMC source. Over the long-term chronic phase (120 days after transplantation), only 25% of BMC-treated epileptic animals had seizures, but with a lower frequency and duration compared to the epileptic control group. The density of hippocampal neurons in the brains of animals treated with BMCs was markedly preserved. At hippocampal Schaeffer collateral-CA1 synapses, long-term potentiation was preserved in BMC-transplanted rats compared to epileptic controls. The donor-derived GFP(+) cells were rarely found in the brains of transplanted epileptic rats. In conclusion, treatment with BMCs can prevent the development of chronic seizures, reduce neuronal loss, and influence the reorganization of the hippocampal neuronal network.","[{'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 14, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 283, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 430, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 450, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'Spontaneous recurrent seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 455, 'end': 485, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'SRS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 487, 'end': 490, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 522, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 584, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'SRS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 618, 'end': 621, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 655, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 677, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 858, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 880, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 946, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1386, 'end': 1394, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neuronal loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1403, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D009410'}]" +398,19445921,Cardioprotective effect of salvianolic acid A on isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction in rats.,"The present study was designed to evaluate the cardioprotective potential of salvianolic acid A on isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction in rats. Hemodynamic parameters and lead II electrocardiograph were monitored and recorded continuously. Cardiac marker enzymes and antioxidative parameters in serum and heart tissues were measured. Assay for mitochondrial respiratory function and histopathological examination of heart tissues were performed. Isoproterenol-treated rats showed significant increases in the levels of lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate transaminase, creatine kinase and malondialdehyde and significant decreases in the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase in serum and heart. These rats also showed declines in left ventricular systolic pressure, maximum and minimum rate of developed left ventricular pressure, and elevation of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and ST-segment. In addition, mitochondrial respiratory dysfunction characterized by decreased respiratory control ratio and ADP/O was observed in isoproterenol-treated rats. Administration of salvianolic acid A for a period of 8 days significantly attenuated isoproterenol-induced cardiac dysfunction and myocardial injury and improved mitochondrial respiratory function. The protective role of salvianolic acid A against isoproterenol-induced myocardial damage was further confirmed by histopathological examination. The results of our study suggest that salvianolic acid A possessing antioxidant activity has a significant protective effect against isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction.","[{'text': 'salvianolic acid A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'C066201'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 71, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'salvianolic acid A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'C066201'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 201, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 223, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'Isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 556, 'end': 569, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'lactate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 629, 'end': 636, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 676, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 696, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 759, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'respiratory dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1096, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'ADP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1154, 'end': 1157, 'mesh': 'D000244'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'salvianolic acid A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1222, 'end': 1240, 'mesh': 'C066201'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1302, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1311, 'end': 1330, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'myocardial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1352, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'salvianolic acid A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1425, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'C066201'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1465, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'salvianolic acid A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1586, 'end': 1604, 'mesh': 'C066201'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1681, 'end': 1694, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1703, 'end': 1724, 'mesh': 'D009203'}]" +399,18439803,Acute effects of N-(2-propylpentanoyl)urea on hippocampal amino acid neurotransmitters in pilocarpine-induced seizure in rats.,"The present study aimed to investigate the anticonvulsant activity as well as the effects on the level of hippocampal amino acid neurotransmitters (glutamate, aspartate, glycine and GABA) of N-(2-propylpentanoyl)urea (VPU) in comparison to its parent compound, valproic acid (VPA). VPU was more potent than VPA, exhibiting the median effective dose (ED(50)) of 49 mg/kg in protecting rats against pilocarpine-induced seizure whereas the corresponding value for VPA was 322 mg/kg. In vivo microdialysis demonstrated that an intraperitoneal administration of pilocarpine induced a pronounced increment of hippocampal glutamate and aspartate whereas no significant change was observed on the level of glycine and GABA. Pretreatment with either VPU (50 and 100 mg/kg) or VPA (300 and 600 mg/kg) completely abolished pilocarpine-evoked increases in extracellular glutamate and aspartate. In addition, a statistically significant reduction was also observed on the level of GABA and glycine but less than a drastic reduction of glutamate and aspartate level. Based on the finding that VPU and VPA could protect the animals against pilocarpine-induced seizure it is suggested that the reduction of inhibitory amino acid neurotransmitters was comparatively minor and offset by a pronounced reduction of glutamate and aspartate. Therefore, like VPA, the finding that VPU could drastically reduce pilocarpine-induced increases in glutamate and aspartate should account, at least partly, for its anticonvulsant activity observed in pilocarpine-induced seizure in experimental animals. Some other mechanism than those being reported herein should be further investigated.","[{'text': 'N-(2-propylpentanoyl)urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'C108761'}, {'text': 'amino acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 110, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'amino acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 245, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 286, 'end': 295, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 297, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 313, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'N-(2-propylpentanoyl)urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 318, 'end': 343, 'mesh': 'C108761'}, {'text': 'VPU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 345, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'C108761'}, {'text': 'valproic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 388, 'end': 401, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'VPU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 409, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'C108761'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 434, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 524, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 544, 'end': 551, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 588, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 756, 'end': 765, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 837, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'VPU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 868, 'end': 871, 'mesh': 'C108761'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 894, 'end': 897, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 950, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 985, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 999, 'end': 1008, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1104, 'end': 1111, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'VPU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1209, 'mesh': 'C108761'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1214, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1263, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1272, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'amino acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1329, 'end': 1339, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1431, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1463, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'VPU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1485, 'end': 1488, 'mesh': 'C108761'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1514, 'end': 1525, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1547, 'end': 1556, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1561, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1648, 'end': 1659, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1668, 'end': 1675, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +400,17919553,Acute hepatitis attack after exposure to telithromycin.,"INTRODUCTION: Antibiotic-associated hepatotoxicity is rare. With widespread use of antimicrobial agents, however, hepatic injury occurs frequently, and among adverse drug reactions, idiosyncratic reactions are the most serious. CASE SUMMARY: A 25-year-old male patient, with a height of 175 cm and weight of 72 kg presented to Marmara University Hospital Emergency Department, Istanbul, Turkey, with 5 days' history of jaundice, malaise, nausea, and vomiting. He had been prescribed telithromycin 400 mg/d PO to treat an upper respiratory tract infection 7 days prior. Admission laboratory tests were as follows: alanine aminotransferase, 67 U/L (reference range, 10-37 U/L); aspartate aminotransferase, 98 U/L (10-40 U/L); alkaline phosphatase, 513 U/L (0-270 U/L); gamma-glutamyltransferase, 32 U/L (7-49 U/L); amylase, 46 U/L (0-220 U/L); total bilirubin, 20.1 mg/dL (0.2-1.0 mg/dL); direct bilirubin, 14.8 mg/dL (0-0.3 mg/dL); and albumin, 4.7 mg/dL (3.5-5.4 mg/dL). No toxin, alcohol, or other drugs were reported. The patient had suffered a previous episode of ""acute hepatitis of unknown origin,"" that occurred after telithromycin usage. Both incidents occurred within a year. DISCUSSION: Telithromycin is the first of the ketolide antibacterials to receive US Food and Drug Administration approval for clinical use. It has been associated with infrequent and usually reversible severe hepatic dysfunction. Based on a score of 8 on the Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale, telithromycin was the probable cause of acute hepatitis in this patient, and pathological findings suggested drug-induced toxic hepatitis. Recurrence of hepatitis attack might have been avoided if the initial incident had been communicated to the attending physician who prescribed telithromycin the second time. CONCLUSION: Here we report a case of acute hepatitis probably associated with the administration of telithromycin.","[{'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 6, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'telithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'C106791'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 92, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'hepatic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 170, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'adverse drug reactions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'jaundice', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D007565'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 494, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 506, 'end': 514, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'telithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 539, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'C106791'}, {'text': 'upper respiratory tract infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 577, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D012141'}, {'text': 'alanine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 669, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D000409'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 732, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'bilirubin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 904, 'end': 913, 'mesh': 'D001663'}, {'text': 'bilirubin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 950, 'end': 959, 'mesh': 'D001663'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1037, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1130, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'telithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'C106791'}, {'text': 'Telithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1265, 'mesh': 'C106791'}, {'text': 'hepatic dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1449, 'end': 1468, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'adverse drug reaction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1528, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'telithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'C106791'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1594, 'end': 1603, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'toxic hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1670, 'end': 1685, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1701, 'end': 1710, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'telithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1830, 'end': 1843, 'mesh': 'C106791'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1904, 'end': 1913, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'telithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1961, 'end': 1974, 'mesh': 'C106791'}]" +401,15632880,Spironolactone-induced renal insufficiency and hyperkalemia in patients with heart failure.,"BACKGROUND: A previous randomized controlled trial evaluating the use of spironolactone in heart failure patients reported a low risk of hyperkalemia (2%) and renal insufficiency (0%). Because treatments for heart failure have changed since the benefits of spironolactone were reported, the prevalence of these complications may differ in current clinical practice. We therefore sought to determine the prevalence and clinical associations of hyperkalemia and renal insufficiency in heart failure patients treated with spironolactone. METHODS: We performed a case control study of heart failure patients treated with spironolactone in our clinical practice. Cases were patients who developed hyperkalemia (K(+) >5.0 mEq/L) or renal insufficiency (Cr >or=2.5 mg/dL), and they were compared to 2 randomly selected controls per case. Clinical characteristics, medications, and serum chemistries at baseline and follow-up time periods were compared. RESULTS: Sixty-seven of 926 patients (7.2%) required discontinuation of spironolactone due to hyperkalemia (n = 33) or renal failure (n = 34). Patients who developed hyperkalemia were older and more likely to have diabetes, had higher baseline serum potassium levels and lower baseline potassium supplement doses, and were more likely to be treated with beta-blockers than controls (n = 134). Patients who developed renal insufficiency had lower baseline body weight and higher baseline serum creatinine, required higher doses of loop diuretics, and were more likely to be treated with thiazide diuretics than controls. CONCLUSIONS: Spironolactone-induced hyperkalemia and renal insufficiency are more common in our clinical experience than reported previously. This difference is explained by patient comorbidities and more frequent use of beta-blockers.","[{'text': 'Spironolactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'D013148'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 47, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 77, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'spironolactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 165, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D013148'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 183, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 229, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 300, 'end': 313, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'spironolactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 349, 'end': 363, 'mesh': 'D013148'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 535, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 552, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 575, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'spironolactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 611, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D013148'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 673, 'end': 686, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'spironolactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 709, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D013148'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 784, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 798, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 818, 'end': 837, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'Cr', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D002857'}, {'text': 'spironolactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D013148'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1132, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1260, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1288, 'end': 1297, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1454, 'end': 1473, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'thiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1624, 'end': 1632, 'mesh': 'D049971'}, {'text': 'Spironolactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1671, 'end': 1685, 'mesh': 'D013148'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1694, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1711, 'end': 1730, 'mesh': 'D051437'}]" +402,11773892,End-stage renal disease (ESRD) after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLTX) using calcineurin-based immunotherapy: risk of development and treatment.,"BACKGROUND: The calcineurin inhibitors cyclosporine and tacrolimus are both known to be nephrotoxic. Their use in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLTX) has dramatically improved success rates. Recently, however, we have had an increase of patients who are presenting after OLTX with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). This retrospective study examines the incidence and treatment of ESRD and chronic renal failure (CRF) in OLTX patients. METHODS: Patients receiving an OLTX only from June 1985 through December of 1994 who survived 6 months postoperatively were studied (n=834). Our prospectively collected database was the source of information. Patients were divided into three groups: Controls, no CRF or ESRD, n=748; CRF, sustained serum creatinine >2.5 mg/dl, n=41; and ESRD, n=45. Groups were compared for preoperative laboratory variables, diagnosis, postoperative variables, survival, type of ESRD therapy, and survival from onset of ESRD. RESULTS: At 13 years after OLTX, the incidence of severe renal dysfunction was 18.1% (CRF 8.6% and ESRD 9.5%). Compared with control patients, CRF and ESRD patients had higher preoperative serum creatinine levels, a greater percentage of patients with hepatorenal syndrome, higher percentage requirement for dialysis in the first 3 months postoperatively, and a higher 1-year serum creatinine. Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis using preoperative and postoperative variables identified that an increase of serum creatinine compared with average at 1 year, 3 months, and 4 weeks postoperatively were independent risk factors for the development of CRF or ESRD with odds ratios of 2.6, 2.2, and 1.6, respectively. Overall survival from the time of OLTX was not significantly different among groups, but by year 13, the survival of the patients who had ESRD was only 28.2% compared with 54.6% in the control group. Patients developing ESRD had a 6-year survival after onset of ESRD of 27% for the patients receiving hemodialysis versus 71.4% for the patients developing ESRD who subsequently received kidney transplants. CONCLUSIONS: Patients who are more than 10 years post-OLTX have CRF and ESRD at a high rate. The development of ESRD decreases survival, particularly in those patients treated with dialysis only. Patients who develop ESRD have a higher preoperative and 1-year serum creatinine and are more likely to have hepatorenal syndrome. However, an increase of serum creatinine at various times postoperatively is more predictive of the development of CRF or ESRD. New strategies for long-term immunosuppression may be needed to decrease this complication.","[{'text': 'End-stage renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 190, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 207, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 239, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'end-stage renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 436, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 461, 'end': 465, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'chronic renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 542, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 565, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 851, 'end': 854, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 858, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 871, 'end': 874, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 892, 'end': 902, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 925, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1096, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1184, 'end': 1187, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1201, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1241, 'end': 1244, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1249, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'hepatorenal syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1350, 'end': 1370, 'mesh': 'D006530'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1480, 'end': 1490, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1627, 'end': 1637, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1762, 'end': 1765, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1769, 'end': 1773, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1965, 'end': 1969, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2047, 'end': 2051, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2089, 'end': 2093, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2182, 'end': 2186, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2297, 'end': 2300, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2305, 'end': 2309, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2345, 'end': 2349, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2450, 'end': 2454, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2499, 'end': 2509, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'hepatorenal syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2538, 'end': 2558, 'mesh': 'D006530'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2590, 'end': 2600, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'CRF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2675, 'end': 2678, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'ESRD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2682, 'end': 2686, 'mesh': 'D007676'}]" +403,10835440,Effect of intravenous nimodipine on blood pressure and outcome after acute stroke.,"BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The Intravenous Nimodipine West European Stroke Trial (INWEST) found a correlation between nimodipine-induced reduction in blood pressure (BP) and an unfavorable outcome in acute stroke. We sought to confirm this correlation with and without adjustment for prognostic variables and to investigate outcome in subgroups with increasing levels of BP reduction. METHODS: Patients with a clinical diagnosis of ischemic stroke (within 24 hours) were consecutively allocated to receive placebo (n=100), 1 mg/h (low-dose) nimodipine (n=101), or 2 mg/h (high-dose) nimodipine (n=94). The correlation between average BP change during the first 2 days and the outcome at day 21 was analyzed. RESULTS: Two hundred sixty-five patients were included in this analysis (n=92, 93, and 80 for placebo, low dose, and high dose, respectively). Nimodipine treatment resulted in a statistically significant reduction in systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) from baseline compared with placebo during the first few days. In multivariate analysis, a significant correlation between DBP reduction and worsening of the neurological score was found for the high-dose group (beta=0.49, P=0. 048). Patients with a DBP reduction of > or =20% in the high-dose group had a significantly increased adjusted OR for the compound outcome variable death or dependency (Barthel Index <60) (n/N=25/26, OR 10. 16, 95% CI 1.02 to 101.74) and death alone (n/N=9/26, OR 4.336, 95% CI 1.131 16.619) compared with all placebo patients (n/N=62/92 and 14/92, respectively). There was no correlation between SBP change and outcome. CONCLUSIONS: DBP, but not SBP, reduction was associated with neurological worsening after the intravenous administration of high-dose nimodipine after acute stroke. For low-dose nimodipine, the results were not conclusive. These results do not confirm or exclude a neuroprotective property of nimodipine.","[{'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'acute stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'Nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 123, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'Stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 148, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 198, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'reduction in blood pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'acute stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 280, 'end': 292, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'BP reduction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'ischemic stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 512, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 673, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'Nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 931, 'end': 941, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'reduction in systolic BP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 992, 'end': 1016, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'DBP reduction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1169, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'DBP reduction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1427, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1517, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1829, 'end': 1839, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'acute stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1846, 'end': 1858, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1873, 'end': 1883, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1988, 'end': 1998, 'mesh': 'D009553'}]" +404,9523805,Transient neurologic symptoms after spinal anesthesia: a lower incidence with prilocaine and bupivacaine than with lidocaine.,"BACKGROUND: Recent evidence suggests that transient neurologic symptoms (TNSs) frequently follow lidocaine spinal anesthesia but are infrequent with bupivacaine. However, identification of a short-acting local anesthetic to substitute for lidocaine for brief surgical procedures remains an important goal. Prilocaine is an amide local anesthetic with a duration of action similar to that of lidocaine. Accordingly, the present, prospective double-blind study compares prilocaine with lidocaine and bupivacaine with respect to duration of action and relative risk of TNSs. METHODS: Ninety patients classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I or II who were scheduled for short gynecologic procedures under spinal anesthesia were randomly allocated to receive 2.5 ml 2% lidocaine in 7.5% glucose, 2% prilocaine in 7.5% glucose, or 0.5% bupivacaine in 7.5% glucose. All solutions were provided in blinded vials by the hospital pharmacy. Details of spinal puncture, extension and regression of spinal block, and the times to reach discharge criteria were noted. In the evening of postoperative day 1, patients were evaluated for TNSs by a physician unaware of the drug administered and the details of the anesthetic procedure. RESULTS: Nine of 30 patients receiving lidocaine experienced TNSs, 1 of 30 patients receiving prilocaine (P = 0.03) had them, and none of 30 patients receiving bupivacaine had TNSs. Times to ambulate and to void were similar after lidocaine and prilocaine (150 vs. 165 min and 238 vs. 253 min, respectively) but prolonged after bupivacaine (200 and 299 min, respectively; P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Prilocaine may be preferable to lidocaine for short surgical procedures because it has a similar duration of action but a lower incidence of TNSs.","[{'text': 'Transient neurologic symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 93, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'transient neurologic symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 168, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'TNSs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 365, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'Prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 432, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 517, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 594, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 610, 'end': 619, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 624, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'TNSs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 692, 'end': 696, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 920, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 938, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 950, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 969, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 986, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'TNSs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1281, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1423, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'TNSs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1546, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'TNSs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1555, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1606, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1620, 'end': 1630, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1703, 'end': 1714, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'Prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1781, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1803, 'end': 1812, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'TNSs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1912, 'end': 1916, 'mesh': 'D009422'}]" +405,9245658,The role of nicotine in smoking-related cardiovascular disease.,"Nicotine activates the sympathetic nervous system and in this way could contribute to cardiovascular disease. Animal studies and mechanistic studies indicate that nicotine could play a role in accelerating atherosclerosis, but evidence among humans is too inadequate to be definitive about such an effect. Almost certainly, nicotine via its hemodynamic effects contributes to acute cardiovascular events, although current evidence suggests that the effects of nicotine are much less important than are the prothrombotic effects of cigarette smoking or the effects of carbon monoxide. Nicotine does not appear to enhance thrombosis among humans. Clinical studies of pipe smokers and people using transdermal nicotine support the idea that toxins other than nicotine are the most important causes of acute cardiovascular events. Finally, the dose response for cardiovascular events of nicotine appears to be flat, suggesting that if nicotine is involved, adverse effects might be seen with relatively low-level cigarette exposures.","[{'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'Nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 64, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 150, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 227, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 270, 'end': 285, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 388, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 524, 'end': 532, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'carbon monoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 631, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D002248'}, {'text': 'Nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 684, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 828, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 947, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 995, 'end': 1003, 'mesh': 'D009538'}]" +406,9034419,Seizure resulting from a venlafaxine overdose.,"OBJECTIVE: To report a case of venlafaxine overdose. CASE SUMMARY: A 40-year-old woman with major depression took an overdose of venlafaxine in an apparent suicide attempt. After the ingestion of 26 venlafaxine 50-mg tablets, the patient experienced a witnessed generalized seizure. She was admitted to the medical intensive care unit, venlafaxine was discontinued, and no further sequelae were seen. DISCUSSION: To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of venlafaxine overdose that resulted in a generalized seizure. Based on nonoverdose pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of venlafaxine and the potential risks of available interventions, no emergent therapy was instituted. CONCLUSIONS: The venlafaxine overdose in our patient resulted in a single episode of generalized seizure but elicited no further sequelae.","[{'text': 'Seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 25, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'major depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 139, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D003865'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 164, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 176, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 246, 'end': 257, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 321, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 383, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 525, 'end': 533, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 565, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 753, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 765, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 833, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +407,8829025,Effect of nifedipine on renal function in liver transplant recipients receiving tacrolimus.,"The effect of nifedipine on renal function in liver transplant recipients who were receiving tacrolimus was evaluated between January 1992 and January 1996. Two groups of patients receiving tacrolimus were compared over a period of 1 year, one group comprising hypertensive patients who were receiving nifedipine, and the other comprising nonhypertensive patients not receiving nifedipine. The time from transplant to baseline was similar in all patients. Nifedipine significantly improved kidney function as indicated by a significant lowering of serum creatinine levels at 6 and 12 months. The observed positive impact of nifedipine on reducing the nephrotoxicity associated with tacrolimus in liver transplant recipients should be an important factor in selecting an agent to treat hypertension in this population.","[{'text': 'nifedipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D009543'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nifedipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D009543'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 282, 'end': 292, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 353, 'end': 365, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'nifedipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D009543'}, {'text': 'nifedipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 470, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D009543'}, {'text': 'Nifedipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'D009543'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 646, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'nifedipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 716, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D009543'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 743, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 774, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 877, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D006973'}]" +408,8437969,Sinus arrest associated with continuous-infusion cimetidine.,"The administration of intermittent intravenous infusions of cimetidine is infrequently associated with the development of bradyarrhythmias.

Because knowledge of stone composition is essential for studies of their pathogenesis, treatment, and prevention, this was investigated by direct and indirect methods in 14 octreotide treated acromegalic patients with gall stones. Chemical analysis of gall stones retrieved at cholecystectomy from two patients, showed that they contained 71% and 87% cholesterol by weight. In the remaining 12 patients, localised computed tomography of the gall bladder showed that eight had stones with maximum attenuation scores of < 100 Hounsfield units (values of < 100 HU predict cholesterol rich, dissolvable stones). Gall bladder bile was obtained by ultrasound guided, fine needle puncture from six patients. All six patients had supersaturated bile (mean (SEM) cholesterol saturation index of 1.19 (0.08) (range 1.01-1.53)) and all had abnormally rapid cholesterol microcrystal nucleation times (< 4 days (range 1-4)), whilst in four, the bile contained cholesterol microcrystals immediately after sampling. Of the 12 patients considered for oral ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) treatment, two had a blocked cystic duct and were not started on UDCA while one was lost to follow up. After one year of treatment, five of the remaining nine patients showed either partial (n = 3) or complete (n = 2) gall stone dissolution, suggesting that their stones were cholesterol rich. This corresponds, by actuarial (life table) analysis, to a combined gall stone dissolution rate of 58.3 (15.9%). In conclusion, octreotide induced gall stones are generally small, multiple, and cholesterol rich although, in common with spontaneous gall stone disease, at presentation some patients will have a blocked cystic duct and some gall stones containing calcium.","[{'text': 'gall bladder stones', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'octreotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 51, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D015282'}, {'text': 'ursodeoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D014580'}, {'text': 'Octreotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D015282'}, {'text': 'acromegaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D000172'}, {'text': 'gall bladder stones', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 161, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'octreotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 377, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D015282'}, {'text': 'acromegalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 396, 'end': 407, 'mesh': 'D000172'}, {'text': 'gall stones', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 422, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'gall stones', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 555, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 773, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 958, 'end': 969, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1050, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1162, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'ursodeoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1244, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D014580'}, {'text': 'UDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1266, 'end': 1270, 'mesh': 'D014580'}, {'text': 'UDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1337, 'end': 1341, 'mesh': 'D014580'}, {'text': 'gall stone', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1559, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'gall stone', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1634, 'end': 1644, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'octreotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1694, 'end': 1704, 'mesh': 'D015282'}, {'text': 'gall stones', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1713, 'end': 1724, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1760, 'end': 1771, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'gall stone disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1814, 'end': 1832, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'gall stones', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1905, 'end': 1916, 'mesh': 'D042882'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1928, 'end': 1935, 'mesh': 'D002118'}]" +410,7468724,Cardiovascular complications associated with terbutaline treatment for preterm labor.,Severe cardiovascular complications occurred in eight of 160 patients treated with terbutaline for preterm labor.

Several recent studies have stressed the renal sparing features of sulindac, owing to its lack of interference with renal prostacyclin synthesis. We describe 4 patients in whom hyperkalemia ranging from 6.1 to 6.9 mEq/l developed within 3 to 8 days of sulindac administration. In all of them normal serum potassium levels reached within 2 to 4 days of stopping sulindac. As no other medications known to effect serum potassium had been given concomitantly, this course of events is suggestive of a cause-and-effect relationship between sulindac and hyperkalemia. These observations indicate that initial hopes that sulindac may not be associated with the adverse renal effects of other NSAID are probably not justified.","[{'text': 'Hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'Hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 47, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'prostacyclin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 299, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D011464'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 354, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 429, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 491, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 538, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 594, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 713, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 726, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 800, 'mesh': 'D013467'}]" +414,3358181,Ventricular tachyarrhythmias during cesarean section after ritodrine therapy: interaction with anesthetics.,"This case illustrates that patients receiving ritodrine for preterm labor may risk interactions between the residual betamimetic effects of ritodrine and the effects of anesthetics during cesarean section.

One h after treatment, serum prolactin levels decreased markedly. Electron microscopy disclosed many secretory granules, slightly distorted rough endoplasmic reticulum, and partially dilated Golgi cisternae in the prolactinoma cells. Morphometric analysis revealed that the volume density of secretory granules increased, while the volume density of cytoplasmic microtubules decreased. These findings suggest that lowered serum prolactin levels in the early phase of bromocriptine treatment may result from an impaired secretion of prolactin due to decreasing numbers of cytoplasmic microtubules. At 6 h after injection, serum prolactin levels were still considerably lower than in controls. The prolactinoma cells at this time were well granulated, with vesiculated rough endoplasmic reticulum and markedly dilated Golgi cisternae. Electron microscopical immunohistochemistry revealed positive reaction products noted on the secretory granules, Golgi cisternae, and endoplasmic reticulum of the untreated rat prolactinoma cells. However, only secretory granules showed the positive reaction products for prolactin 6 h after bromocriptine treatment of the adenoma cells. An increase in the volume density of secretory granules and a decrease in the volume densities of rough endoplasmic reticulum and microtubules was determined by morphometric analysis, suggesting that bromocriptine inhibits protein synthesis as well as bringing about a disturbance of the prolactin secretion.","[{'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'prolactinomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 162, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'prolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 179, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'prolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 309, 'end': 321, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 359, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'prolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 613, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 866, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'prolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'prolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1421, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1524, 'end': 1537, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'adenoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1555, 'end': 1562, 'mesh': 'D000236'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1770, 'end': 1783, 'mesh': 'D001971'}]" +416,2425813,"On two paradoxical side-effects of prednisolone in rats, ribosomal RNA biosyntheses, and a mechanism of action.",Liver enlargement and muscle wastage occurred in Wistar rats following the subcutaneous administration of prednisolone.

This led us to hypothesize that a metabolite of cocaine may be responsible for some of those delayed sequelae. We evaluated the potential of the major metabolite of cocaine, benzoylecgonine (BE), to cause seizures. Two separate equimolar doses (0.2 and 0.4 mumol) of either cocaine or BE were injected ventricularly in unanesthetized juvenile rats. Treated rats were then evaluated for incidence, latency, and seizure pattern or for locomotor activity in animals without seizures. BE-Induced seizures occurred more frequently and had significantly longer latencies than those induced by equimolar amounts of cocaine. Whereas cocaine-induced seizures were best characterized as brief, generalized, and tonic and resulted in death, those induced by BE were prolonged, often multiple and mixed in type, and rarely resulted in death. Electrical recordings from the hippocampus showed a rhythmic progression in EEG frequency and voltage with clinical seizure expression. BE-Injected rats that did not have seizures had significantly more locomotor activity than cocaine-injected animals without seizures. The finding that cocaine- and BE-induced seizures differ in several respects suggests more than one mechanism for cocaine-induced seizures and emphasizes the importance of a cocaine metabolite, BE.","[{'text': 'Seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'benzoylecgonine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 170, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'strokes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 183, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 272, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 389, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'benzoylecgonine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'BE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 429, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 498, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'BE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 509, 'end': 511, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 634, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 695, 'end': 703, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'BE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 705, 'end': 707, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 716, 'end': 724, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 832, 'end': 839, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 856, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 865, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 947, 'end': 952, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'BE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 971, 'end': 973, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1047, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1177, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'BE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1225, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1281, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1314, 'end': 1322, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1341, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'BE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1365, 'end': 1373, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1454, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'BE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1518, 'end': 1520, 'mesh': 'C005618'}]" +421,1436384,"Protection against amphetamine-induced neurotoxicity toward striatal dopamine neurons in rodents by LY274614, an excitatory amino acid antagonist.","LY274614, 3SR,4aRS,6SR,8aRS-6-[phosphonomethyl]decahydr oisoquinoline-3- carboxylic acid, has been described as a potent antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subtype of glutamate receptor. Here its ability to antagonize the prolonged depletion of dopamine in the striatum by amphetamine in iprindole-treated rats is reported. A single 18.4 mg/kg (i.p.) dose of (+/-)-amphetamine hemisulfate, given to rats pretreated with iprindole, resulted in persistent depletion of dopamine in the striatum 1 week later. This prolonged depletion of dopamine in the striatum was antagonized by dizocilpine (MK-801, a non-competitive antagonist of NMDA receptors) or by LY274614 (a competitive antagonist of NMDA receptors). The protective effect of LY274614 was dose-dependent, being maximum at 10-40 mgkg (i.p.). A 10 mg/kg dose of LY274614 was effective in antagonizing the depletion of dopamine in the striatum, when given as long as 8 hr prior to amphetamine but not when given 24 hr prior to amphetamine. Depletion of dopamine in the striatum was also antagonized when LY274614 was given after the injection of amphetamine; LY274614 protected when given up to 4 hr after but not when given 8 or 24 hr after amphetamine. The prolonged depletion of dopamine in the striatum in mice, given multiple injections of methamphetamine, was also antagonized dose-dependently and completely by LY274614. The data strengthen the evidence that the neurotoxic effect of amphetamine and related compounds toward nigrostriatal dopamine neurons involves NMDA receptors and that LY274614 is an NMDA receptor antagonist with long-lasting in vivo effects in rats.","[{'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 69, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 100, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'amino acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 124, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 147, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': '3SR,4aRS,6SR,8aRS-6-[phosphonomethyl]decahydr oisoquinoline-3- carboxylic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 157, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 286, 'end': 306, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 325, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 431, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'iprindole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D007488'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 523, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'iprindole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 578, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D007488'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 625, 'end': 633, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dizocilpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 736, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 749, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 789, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 811, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 891, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 975, 'end': 983, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1093, 'end': 1104, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1216, 'end': 1224, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1258, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1365, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1394, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1457, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1538, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1582, 'end': 1592, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1603, 'end': 1614, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1658, 'end': 1666, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1684, 'end': 1688, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'LY274614', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'C070935'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1723, 'end': 1727, 'mesh': 'D016202'}]" +422,1085609,Neonatal pyridoxine responsive convulsions due to isoniazid therapy.,"A 17-day-old infant on isoniazid therapy 13 mg/kg daily from birth because of maternal tuberculosis was admitted after 4 days of clonic fits.

Ten patients with acute transmural myocardial infarctions received intravenous nitroglycerin, sufficient to reduce mean arterial pressure from 107 +/- 6 to 85 +/- 6 mm Hg (P less than 0.001), for 60 minutes. Left ventricular filling pressure decreased from 19 +/- 2 to 11 +/- 2 mm Hg (P less than 0.001). SigmaST, the sum of ST-segment elevations in 16 precordial leads, decreased (P less than 0.02) with intravenous nitroglycerin. Subsequent addition of phenylephrine infusion, sufficient to re-elevate mean arterial pressure to 106 +/- 4 mm Hg (P less than 0.001) for 30 minutes, increased left ventricular filling pressure to 17 +/- 2 mm Hg (P less than 0.05) and also significantly increased sigmaST (P less than 0.05).

METHODS: Thoracic aorta of male Sprague-Dawley rats was exposed to 0.5M CaCl(2) or normal saline (NaCl). After 12weeks, animals were euthanized, and CaCl(2)-treated, CaCl(2)-untreated (n=12) and NaCl-treated aortic segments (n=12) were collected for histological and molecular assessments. MMP-TIMP and ADAM mRNAs were semi-quantitatively analyzed and protein expressions were determined by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Despite similar external diameters among CaCl(2)-treated, non-CaCl(2)-treated and NaCl-treated segments, aneurymal alteration (n=6, 50%), media degeneration with regional disruption, fragmentation of elastic fiber, and increased collagen deposition (n=12, 100%) were demonstrated in CaCl(2)-treated segments. MMP-2, MMP-9, ADAM-10 and ADAM-17 mRNA levels were increased in CaCl(2)-treated segments (all p<0.01), with trends of elevation in CaCl(2)-untreated segments, as compared with NaCl-treated segments. Immunohistochemistry displayed significantly increased expressions of MMP-2, MMP-9, ADAM-10 and ADAM-17 (all p<0.01) in intima and media for CaCl(2)-treated segments. TIMP mRNA and tissue levels did not differ obviously among the three aortic segments.

In Dahl salt-sensitive rats (DS), high-salt (HS) diet increases BP more in males than females. In contrast to the systemic renin-angiotensin system, which is suppressed in response to HS in male DS, intrarenal angiotensinogen expression is increased, and intrarenal levels of ANG II are not suppressed. In this study, the hypothesis was tested that there is a sexual dimorphism in HS-induced upregulation of intrarenal angiotensinogen mediated by testosterone that also causes increases in BP and renal injury. On a low-salt (LS) diet, male DS had higher levels of intrarenal angiotensinogen mRNA than females. HS diet for 4 wk increased renal cortical angiotensinogen mRNA and protein only in male DS, which was prevented by castration. Ovariectomy of female DS had no effect on intrarenal angiotensinogen expression on either diet. Radiotelemetric BP was similar between males and castrated rats on LS diet. HS diet for 4 wk caused a progressive increase in BP, protein and albumin excretion, and glomerular sclerosis in male DS rats, which were attenuated by castration.

The goal of these studies was to use an animal model to examine the effects of prenatal protein deprivation on behaviors and receptor binding with relevance to schizophrenia. We report that prenatally protein deprived (PD) female rats showed an increased stereotypic response to apomorphine and an increased locomotor response to amphetamine in adulthood. These differences were not observed during puberty. No changes in haloperidol-induced catalepsy or MK-801-induced locomotion were seen following PD. In addition, PD female rats showed increased (3)H-MK-801 binding in the striatum and hippocampus, but not in the cortex. PD female rats also showed increased (3)H-haloperidol binding and decreased dopamine transporter binding in striatum. No statistically significant changes in behavior or receptor binding were found in PD males with the exception of increased (3)H-MK-801 binding in cortex. This animal model may be useful to explore the mechanisms by which prenatal nutritional deficiency enhances risk for schizophrenia in humans and may also have implications for developmental processes leading to differential sensitivity to drugs of abuse.","[{'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 215, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 390, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 509, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 672, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 685, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'H', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 783, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D006859'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 785, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'H', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 896, 'end': 897, 'mesh': 'D006859'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 898, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 932, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'H', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1102, 'mesh': 'D006859'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1109, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'nutritional deficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1227, 'mesh': 'D044342'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1259, 'mesh': 'D012559'}]" +430,18631865,"mToR inhibitors-induced proteinuria: mechanisms, significance, and management.","Massive urinary protein excretion has been observed after conversion from calcineurin inhibitors to mammalian target of rapamycin (mToR) inhibitors, especially sirolimus, in renal transplant recipients with chronic allograft nephropathy.

Although central prolactin actions are thought to contribute to this, the mechanisms are poorly understood. We first tested whether chronic hyperprolactinemia inhibited two neuroendocrine parameters necessary for female fertility: pulsatile LH secretion and the estrogen-induced LH surge. Chronic hyperprolactinemia induced by the dopamine antagonist sulpiride caused a 40% reduction LH pulse frequency in ovariectomized rats, but only in the presence of chronic low levels of estradiol. Sulpiride did not affect the magnitude of a steroid-induced LH surge or the percentage of GnRH neurons activated during the surge. Estradiol is known to influence expression of the long form of prolactin receptors (PRL-R) and components of prolactin's signaling pathway. To test the hypothesis that estrogen increases PRL-R expression and sensitivity to prolactin, we next demonstrated that estradiol greatly augments prolactin-induced STAT5 activation. Lastly, we measured PRL-R and suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS-1 and -3 and CIS, which reflect the level of prolactin signaling) mRNAs in response to sulpiride and estradiol. Sulpiride induced only SOCS-1 in the medial preoptic area, where GnRH neurons are regulated, but in the arcuate nucleus and choroid plexus, PRL-R, SOCS-3, and CIS mRNA levels were also induced. Estradiol enhanced these effects on SOCS-3 and CIS. Interestingly, estradiol also induced PRL-R, SOCS-3, and CIS mRNA levels independently. These data show that GnRH pulse frequency is inhibited by chronic hyperprolactinemia in a steroid-dependent manner. They also provide evidence for estradiol-dependent and brain region-specific regulation of PRL-R expression and signaling responses by prolactin.","[{'text': 'ribonucleic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D012313'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 92, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 182, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'Hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 193, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 385, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 507, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 542, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'sulpiride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 596, 'end': 605, 'mesh': 'D013469'}, {'text': 'estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 722, 'end': 731, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'Sulpiride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 733, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D013469'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 777, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'Estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 864, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1032, 'end': 1040, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'sulpiride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1352, 'mesh': 'D013469'}, {'text': 'estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1357, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'Sulpiride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'D013469'}, {'text': 'Estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1629, 'end': 1638, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1768, 'end': 1786, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1792, 'end': 1799, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1849, 'end': 1858, 'mesh': 'D004958'}]" +432,17879945,Estrogen prevents cholesteryl ester accumulation in macrophages induced by the HIV protease inhibitor ritonavir.,"Individuals with HIV can now live long lives with drug therapy that often includes protease inhibitors such as ritonavir. Many patients, however, develop negative long-term side effects such as premature atherosclerosis. We have previously demonstrated that ritonavir treatment increases atherosclerotic lesion formation in male mice to a greater extent than in female mice. Furthermore, peripheral blood monocytes isolated from ritonavir-treated females had less cholesteryl ester accumulation. In the present study, we have investigated the molecular mechanisms by which female hormones influence cholesterol metabolism in macrophages in response to the HIV protease inhibitor ritonavir. We have utilized the human monocyte cell line, THP-1 as a model to address this question. Briefly, cells were differentiated for 72 h with 100 nM PMA to obtain a macrophage-like phenotype in the presence or absence of 1 nM 17beta-estradiol (E2), 100 nM progesterone or vehicle (0.01% ethanol). Cells were then treated with 30 ng/ml ritonavir or vehicle in the presence of aggregated LDL for 24 h. Cell extracts were harvested, and lipid or total RNA was isolated. E2 decreased the accumulation of cholesteryl esters in macrophages following ritonavir treatment. Ritonavir increased the expression of the scavenger receptor, CD36 mRNA, responsible for the uptake of LDL. Additionally, ritonavir treatment selectively increased the relative levels of PPARgamma mRNA, a transcription factor responsible for the regulation of CD36 mRNA expression. Treatment with E2, however, failed to prevent these increases at the mRNA level. E2 did, however, significantly suppress CD36 protein levels as measured by fluorescent immunocytochemistry. This data suggests that E2 modifies the expression of CD36 at the level of protein expression in monocyte-derived macrophages resulting in reduced cholesteryl ester accumulation following ritonavir treatment.","[{'text': 'cholesteryl ester', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D002788'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'premature atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 307, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 371, 'end': 380, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'atherosclerotic lesion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 401, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 542, 'end': 551, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'cholesteryl ester', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 577, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D002788'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': '17beta-estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'progesterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1056, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1267, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'cholesteryl esters', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1300, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'D002788'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'Ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1365, 'end': 1374, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1496, 'mesh': 'D019438'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1662, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1728, 'end': 1730, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1860, 'end': 1862, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'cholesteryl ester', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1983, 'end': 2000, 'mesh': 'D002788'}, {'text': 'ritonavir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2024, 'end': 2033, 'mesh': 'D019438'}]" +433,17437408,Upregulation of brain expression of P-glycoprotein in MRP2-deficient TR(-) rats resembles seizure-induced up-regulation of this drug efflux transporter in normal rats.,"PURPOSE: The multidrug resistance protein 2 (MRP2) is a drug efflux transporter that is expressed predominantly at the apical domain of hepatocytes but seems also to be expressed at the apical membrane of brain capillary endothelial cells that form the blood-brain barrier (BBB). MRP2 is absent in the transport-deficient (TR(-)) Wistar rat mutant, so that this rat strain was very helpful in defining substrates of MRP2 by comparing tissue concentrations or functional activities of compounds in MRP2-deficient rats with those in transport-competent Wistar rats. By using this strategy to study the involvement of MRP2 in brain access of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), we recently reported that phenytoin is a substrate for MRP2 in the BBB. However, one drawback of such studies in genetically deficient rats is the fact that compensatory changes with upregulation of other transporters can occur. This prompted us to study the brain expression of P-glycoprotein (Pgp), a major drug efflux transporter in many tissues, including the BBB, in TR(-) rats compared with nonmutant (wild-type) Wistar rats. METHODS: The expression of MRP2 and Pgp in brain and liver sections of TR(-) rats and normal Wistar rats was determined with immunohistochemistry, by using a novel, highly selective monoclonal MRP2 antibody and the monoclonal Pgp antibody C219, respectively. RESULTS: Immunofluorescence staining with the MRP2 antibody was found to label a high number of microvessels throughout the brain in normal Wistar rats, whereas such labeling was absent in TR(-) rats. TR(-) rats exhibited a significant up-regulation of Pgp in brain capillary endothelial cells compared with wild-type controls. No such obvious upregulation of Pgp was observed in liver sections. A comparable overexpression of Pgp in the BBB was obtained after pilocarpine-induced seizures in wild-type Wistar rats. Experiments with systemic administration of the Pgp substrate phenobarbital and the selective Pgp inhibitor tariquidar in TR(-) rats substantiated that Pgp is functional and compensates for the lack of MRP2 in the BBB. CONCLUSIONS: The data on TR(-) rats indicate that Pgp plays an important role in the compensation of MRP2 deficiency in the BBB. Because such a compensatory mechanism most likely occurs to reduce injury to the brain from cytotoxic compounds, the present data substantiate the concept that MRP2 performs a protective role in the BBB. Furthermore, our data suggest that TR(-) rats are an interesting tool to study consequences of overexpression of Pgp in the BBB on access of drugs in the brain, without the need of inducing seizures or other Pgp-enhancing events for this purpose.","[{'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 861, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1987, 'end': 1998, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2007, 'end': 2015, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2104, 'end': 2117, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'tariquidar', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2150, 'end': 2160, 'mesh': 'C402343'}, {'text': 'injury to the brain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2457, 'end': 2476, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2784, 'end': 2792, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +434,17242861,Use of chromosome substitution strains to identify seizure susceptibility loci in mice.,"Seizure susceptibility varies among inbred mouse strains. Chromosome substitution strains (CSS), in which a single chromosome from one inbred strain (donor) has been transferred onto a second strain (host) by repeated backcrossing, may be used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that contribute to seizure susceptibility. QTLs for susceptibility to pilocarpine-induced seizures, a model of temporal lobe epilepsy, have not been reported, and CSS have not previously been used to localize seizure susceptibility genes. We report QTLs identified using a B6 (host) x A/J (donor) CSS panel to localize genes involved in susceptibility to pilocarpine-induced seizures. Three hundred fifty-five adult male CSS mice, 58 B6, and 39 A/J were tested for susceptibility to pilocarpine-induced seizures. Highest stage reached and latency to each stage were recorded for all mice. B6 mice were resistant to seizures and slower to reach stages compared to A/J mice. The CSS for Chromosomes 10 and 18 progressed to the most severe stages, diverging dramatically from the B6 phenotype. Latencies to stages were also significantly shorter for CSS10 and CSS18 mice. CSS mapping suggests seizure susceptibility loci on mouse Chromosomes 10 and 18.

Pre- and posttransplant crossmatching was done when possible. RESULTS: Five cases of thrombotic microangiopathy were found. Three of these cases were from the 25 transplantations performed at King Fahad National Guard Hospital, while the other 2 transplantations had been performed abroad and were referred to us for follow-up. Three cases were related to cyclosporine, and 1 case was secondary to both cyclosporine and tacrolimus. The fifth case had features of thrombotic microangiopathy related to an antiphospholipid syndrome in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus. CONCLUSIONS: In the literature, the most-frequent cause of hemolytic uremic syndrome in patients following renal transplantation is recurrence of the hemolytic uremic syndrome. Other causes include drug-related (cyclosporine, tacrolimus) toxicity, procoagulant status, and antibody-mediated rejection. We found that the most-frequent cause of thrombotic microangiopathy was drug related, secondary mainly to cyclosporine. In the current study, the frequency of thrombotic microangiopathy was similar to the percentage reported in the literature (20%).","[{'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'Thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 101, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 227, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'hemolytic uremic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 279, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'D006463'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 342, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 502, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 824, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1154, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1169, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1202, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'antiphospholipid syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1243, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'D016736'}, {'text': 'systemic lupus erythematosus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'hemolytic uremic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1376, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D006463'}, {'text': 'hemolytic uremic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1467, 'end': 1492, 'mesh': 'D006463'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1529, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1543, 'end': 1553, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1555, 'end': 1563, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1660, 'end': 1686, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1725, 'end': 1737, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1778, 'end': 1804, 'mesh': 'D057049'}]" +437,15188772,Severe reversible left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction due to accidental iatrogenic epinephrine overdose.,"Catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy due to chronic excess of endogenous catecholamines has been recognized for decades as a clinical phenomenon.

A 35-year-old woman whose cervix uteri was inadvertently injected with 8 mg of epinephrine developed myocardial stunning that was characterized by severe hemodynamic compromise, profound, albeit transient, left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction, and only modestly elevated biochemical markers of myocardial necrosis.

METHODS: In the population based, nationwide Swedish Inpatient Register a cohort of 1065 patients with Wegener's granulomatosis, 1969-95, was identified. Through linkage with the Swedish Cancer Register, all subjects in this cohort diagnosed with bladder cancer were identified. Nested within the cohort, a matched case-control study was performed to estimate the association between cyclophosphamide and bladder cancer using odds ratios (ORs) as relative risk. In the cohort the cumulative risk of bladder cancer after Wegener's granulomatosis, and the relative prevalence of a history of bladder cancer at the time of diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis, were also estimated. RESULTS: The median cumulative doses of cyclophosphamide among cases (n = 11) and controls (n = 25) were 113 g and 25 g, respectively. The risk of bladder cancer doubled for every 10 g increment in cyclophosphamide (OR = 2.0, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.8 to 4.9). Treatment duration longer than 1 year was associated with an eightfold increased risk (OR = 7.7, 95% CI 0.9 to 69). The absolute risk for bladder cancer in the cohort reached 10% 16 years after diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis, and a history of bladder cancer was (non-significantly) twice as common as expected at the time of diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis. CONCLUSION: The results indicate a dose-response relationship between cyclophosphamide and the risk of bladder cancer, high cumulative risks in the entire cohort, and also the possibility of risk factors operating even before Wegener's granulomatosis.","[{'text': 'Urinary bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D014890'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 178, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 213, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D014890'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 342, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D014890'}, {'text': 'Cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 426, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 486, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 644, 'end': 658, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 738, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 759, 'end': 783, 'mesh': 'D014890'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 829, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 872, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'D014890'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 959, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1066, 'end': 1080, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1339, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1394, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D014890'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1437, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1532, 'end': 1556, 'mesh': 'D014890'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1628, 'end': 1644, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bladder cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1661, 'end': 1675, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': ""Wegener's granulomatosis"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1784, 'end': 1808, 'mesh': 'D014890'}]" +439,12707296,L-arginine transport in humans with cortisol-induced hypertension.,"A deficient L-arginine-nitric oxide system is implicated in cortisol-induced hypertension. We investigate whether abnormalities in L-arginine uptake contribute to this deficiency. Eight healthy men were recruited. Hydrocortisone acetate (50 mg) was given orally every 6 hours for 24 hours after a 5-day fixed-salt diet (150 mmol/d). Crossover studies were performed 2 weeks apart. Thirty milliliters of blood was obtained for isolation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells after each treatment period. L-arginine uptake was assessed in mononuclear cells incubated with L-arginine (1 to 300 micromol/L), incorporating 100 nmol/L [3H]-l-arginine for a period of 5 minutes at 37 degrees C. Forearm [3H]-L-arginine extraction was calculated after infusion of [3H]-L-arginine into the brachial artery at a rate of 100 nCi/min for 80 minutes. Deep forearm venous samples were collected for determination of L-arginine extraction. Plasma cortisol concentrations were significantly raised during the active phase (323+/-43 to 1082+/-245 mmol/L, P<0.05). Systolic blood pressure was elevated by an average of 7 mm Hg. Neither L-arginine transport into mononuclear cells (placebo vs active, 26.3+/-3.6 vs 29.0+/-2.1 pmol/10 000 cells per 5 minutes, respectively, at an l-arginine concentration of 300 micromol/L) nor L-arginine extraction in the forearm (at 80 minutes, placebo vs active, 1 868 904+/-434 962 vs 2 013 910+/-770 619 disintegrations per minute) was affected by cortisol treatment; ie, that L-arginine uptake is not affected by short-term cortisol treatment. We conclude that cortisol-induced increases in blood pressure are not associated with abnormalities in the l-arginine transport system.","[{'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 53, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 127, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 144, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 198, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'Hydrocortisone acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 281, 'end': 303, 'mesh': 'C021650'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 570, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 637, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': '[3H]-l-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 696, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': '[3H]-L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 763, 'end': 778, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': '[3H]-L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 969, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 999, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1185, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'l-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1327, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1385, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1534, 'end': 1542, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1573, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1611, 'end': 1619, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1648, 'end': 1656, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'increases in blood pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1692, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'l-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1738, 'end': 1748, 'mesh': 'D001120'}]" +440,12695819,MR imaging with quantitative diffusion mapping of tacrolimus-induced neurotoxicity in organ transplant patients.,"Our objective was to investigate brain MR imaging findings and the utility of diffusion-weighted (DW) imaging in organ transplant patients who developed neurologic symptoms during tacrolimus therapy.

We examined this theory using the exo utero development system that allows direct and sequential observations of mid- to late-gestation mouse embryos. We observed the exencephaly induced by 5-azacytidine at embryonic day 13.5 (E13.5), let the embryos develop exo utero until E18.5, and re-observed the same embryos at E18.5. We confirmed several cases of transformation from exencephaly to anencephaly. However, in many cases, the exencephalic brain tissue was preserved with more or less reduction during this period. To analyze the transformation patterns, we classified the exencephaly by size and shape of the exencephalic tissue into several types at E13.5 and E18.5. It was found that the transformation of exencephalic tissue was not simply size-dependent, and all cases of anencephaly at E18.5 resulted from embryos with a large amount of exencephalic tissue at E13.5. Microscopic observation showed the configuration of exencephaly at E13.5, frequent hemorrhaging and detachment of the neural plate from surface ectoderm in the exencephalic head at E15.5, and multiple modes of reduction in the exencephalic tissue at E18.5. From observations of the vasculature, altered distribution patterns of vessels were identified in the exencephalic head. These findings suggest that overgrowth of the exencephalic neural tissue causes the altered distribution patterns of vessels, subsequent peripheral circulatory failure and/or hemorrhaging in various parts of the exencephalic head, leading to the multiple modes of tissue reduction during transformation from exencephaly to anencephaly.","[{'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 164, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'anencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 179, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D000757'}, {'text': 'Anencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D000757'}, {'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 239, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 543, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': '5-azacytidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 566, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D001374'}, {'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 751, 'end': 762, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'anencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 766, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D000757'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 807, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 953, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 990, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1101, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'anencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D000757'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1223, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1305, 'end': 1316, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'hemorrhaging', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1336, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1425, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1480, 'end': 1492, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1624, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1677, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'circulatory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1779, 'end': 1798, 'mesh': 'D012769'}, {'text': 'hemorrhaging', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1806, 'end': 1818, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'exencephalic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1843, 'end': 1855, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'exencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1939, 'end': 1950, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'anencephaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1954, 'end': 1965, 'mesh': 'D000757'}]" +443,11166519,Acute cocaine-induced seizures: differential sensitivity of six inbred mouse strains.,"Mature male and female mice from six inbred stains were tested for susceptibility to behavioral seizures induced by a single injection of cocaine.

These were the albino Sprague-Dawley ICR and BALB/C, the black C57BL/6 and the brown CDF-I mouse strains. Amantadine treatment produced a biphasic effect on mouse motility. The initial dose of amantadine depressed locomotor activity in all mouse strains studied with the BALB/C mice being the most sensitive. Subsequent amantadine treatments produced enhancement of motility from corresponding control in all mouse strains with the BALB/C mice being the least sensitive. The locomotor activity was decreased from corresponding controls in all strains studied, except for the ICR mice, during an overnight drug-free period following the fourth amantadine treatment. Readministration of amantadine, after a drug-free overnight period, increased motility from respective saline control in all strains with exception of the BALB/C mice where suppression of motility occurred. Treatment with amantadine did not alter whole brain dopamine levels but decreased the amounts of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid in the BALB/C mice compared to saline control. Conversely, brain normetanephrine concentration was increased from saline control by amantadine in the BALB/C mice. The results suggest a strain-dependent effect of amantadine on motility and indicate a differential response to the acute and multiple dose regimens used. The BALB/C mouse was the most sensitive strain and could serve as the strain of choice for evaluating the side effects of amantadine. The biochemical results of brain biogenic amines of BALB/C mouse strain suggest a probable decrease of catecholamine turnover rate and/or metabolism by monoamine oxidase and a resulting increase in O-methylation of norepinephrine which may account for a behavioral depression caused by amantadine in the BALB/C mice.","[{'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 75, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D000588'}, {'text': 'amantadine hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 97, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 246, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D000588'}, {'text': 'Amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 425, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 502, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'depressed', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 513, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 629, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 952, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 994, 'end': 1004, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'suppression of motility', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D011596'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1196, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1241, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': '3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'D015102'}, {'text': 'normetanephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1374, 'end': 1389, 'mesh': 'D009647'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1441, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1521, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1759, 'mesh': 'D000547'}, {'text': 'amines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1803, 'end': 1809, 'mesh': 'D000588'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1864, 'end': 1877, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1976, 'end': 1990, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'behavioral depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2015, 'end': 2036, 'mesh': 'D011596'}, {'text': 'amantadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2047, 'end': 2057, 'mesh': 'D000547'}]" +448,2396046,No enhancement by phenobarbital of the hepatocarcinogenicity of a choline-devoid diet in the rat.,"An experiment was performed to test whether inclusion of phenobarbital in a choline-devoid diet would increase the hepatocarcinogenicity of the diet.

To develop a more sensitive echocardiographic screening test for cardiac damage due to doxorubicin, a cohort study was performed using dobutamine infusion to differentiate asymptomatic long-term survivors of childhood cancer treated with doxorubicin from healthy control subjects. Echocardiographic data from the experimental group of 21 patients (mean age 16 +/- 5 years) treated from 1.6 to 14.3 years (median 5.3) before this study with 27 to 532 mg/m2 of doxorubicin (mean 196) were compared with echocardiographic data from 12 normal age-matched control subjects.

The possible additive role of pharmacologic agents in precipitating cardiac disturbances in patients with respiratory failure has only recently been emphasized. The effects of aminophylline on the ventricular fibrillation threshold during normal acid-base conditions and during respiratory failure were studied in anesthetized open chest dogs. The ventricular fibrillation threshold was measured by passing a gated train of 12 constant current pulses through the ventricular myocardium during the vulnerable period of the cardiac cycle. During the infusion of aminophylline, the ventricular fibrillation threshold was reduced by 30 to 40 percent of the control when pH and partial pressures of oxygen (PO2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) were kept within normal limits. When respiratory failure was produced by hypoventilation (pH 7.05 to 7.25; PC02 70 to 100 mm Hg: P02 20 to 40 mm Hg), infusion of aminophylline resulted in an even greater decrease in ventricular fibrillation threshold to 60 percent of the control level. These experiments suggest that although many factors may contribute to the increased incidence of ventricular arrhythmias in respiratory failure, pharmacologic agents, particularly aminophylline, may play a significant role.","[{'text': 'aminophylline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D000628'}, {'text': 'ventricular fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D014693'}, {'text': 'respiratory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'Cardiac arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 110, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'respiratory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'cardiac disturbances', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 269, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'respiratory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 307, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'aminophylline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 377, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D000628'}, {'text': 'ventricular fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 398, 'end': 422, 'mesh': 'D014693'}, {'text': 'respiratory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 479, 'end': 498, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'ventricular fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 549, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'D014693'}, {'text': 'aminophylline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 761, 'end': 774, 'mesh': 'D000628'}, {'text': 'ventricular fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 780, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D014693'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 895, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'PO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 903, 'end': 906, 'mesh': 'C093415'}, {'text': 'carbon dioxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 912, 'end': 926, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 928, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'respiratory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 970, 'end': 989, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'hypoventilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1021, 'mesh': 'D007040'}, {'text': 'aminophylline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D000628'}, {'text': 'ventricular fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D014693'}, {'text': 'ventricular arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1318, 'end': 1341, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'respiratory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1364, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'aminophylline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1401, 'end': 1414, 'mesh': 'D000628'}]" +452,16740173,Case report: acute unintentional carbachol intoxication.,"INTRODUCTION: Intoxications with carbachol, a muscarinic cholinergic receptor agonist are rare. We report an interesting case investigating a (near) fatal poisoning. METHODS: The son of an 84-year-old male discovered a newspaper report stating clinical success with plant extracts in Alzheimer's disease. The mode of action was said to be comparable to that of the synthetic compound 'carbamylcholin'; that is, carbachol. He bought 25 g of carbachol as pure substance in a pharmacy, and the father was administered 400 to 500 mg. Carbachol concentrations in serum and urine on day 1 and 2 of hospital admission were analysed by HPLC-mass spectrometry. RESULTS: Minutes after oral administration, the patient developed nausea, sweating and hypotension, and finally collapsed. Bradycardia, cholinergic symptoms and asystole occurred. Initial cardiopulmonary resuscitation and immediate treatment with adrenaline (epinephrine), atropine and furosemide was successful. On hospital admission, blood pressure of the intubated, bradyarrhythmic patient was 100/65 mmHg. Further signs were hyperhidrosis, hypersalivation, bronchorrhoea, and severe miosis; the electrocardiographic finding was atrio-ventricular dissociation. High doses of atropine (up to 50 mg per 24 hours), adrenaline and dopamine were necessary. The patient was extubated 1 week later. However, increased dyspnoea and bronchospasm necessitated reintubation. Respiratory insufficiency was further worsened by Proteus mirabilis infection and severe bronchoconstriction. One week later, the patient was again extubated and 3 days later was transferred to a peripheral ward. On the next day he died, probably as a result of heart failure. Serum samples from the first and second days contained 3.6 and 1.9 mg/l carbachol, respectively. The corresponding urine concentrations amounted to 374 and 554 mg/l. CONCLUSION: This case started with a media report in a popular newspaper, initiated by published, peer-reviewed research on herbals, and involved human failure in a case history, medical examination and clinical treatment. For the first time, an analytical method for the determination of carbachol in plasma and urine has been developed. The analysed carbachol concentration exceeded the supposed serum level resulting from a therapeutic dose by a factor of 130 to 260. Especially in old patients, intensivists should consider intoxications (with cholinergics) as a cause of acute cardiovascular failure.","[{'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D011041'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 341, 'end': 360, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'carbamylcholin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 442, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 468, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 497, 'end': 506, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'Carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 587, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 775, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 796, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'Bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 832, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'asystole', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 870, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 956, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 968, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 982, 'end': 990, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'furosemide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 995, 'end': 1005, 'mesh': 'D005665'}, {'text': 'hyperhidrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D006945'}, {'text': 'hypersalivation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D012798'}, {'text': 'bronchorrhoea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'miosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1196, 'end': 1202, 'mesh': 'D015877'}, {'text': 'atrio-ventricular dissociation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1241, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D006327'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1295, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1334, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1347, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dyspnoea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1431, 'mesh': 'D004417'}, {'text': 'bronchospasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D001986'}, {'text': 'Respiratory insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1476, 'end': 1501, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'Proteus mirabilis infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1553, 'mesh': 'D011512'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1738, 'end': 1751, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1825, 'end': 1834, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2208, 'end': 2217, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2271, 'end': 2280, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'acute cardiovascular failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2495, 'end': 2523, 'mesh': 'D002318'}]" +453,12464714,Crossover comparison of efficacy and preference for rizatriptan 10 mg versus ergotamine/caffeine in migraine.,"Rizatriptan is a selective 5-HT(1B/1D) receptor agonist with rapid oral absorption and early onset of action in the acute treatment of migraine. This randomized double- blind crossover outpatient study assessed the preference for 1 rizatriptan 10 mg tablet to 2 ergotamine 1 mg/caffeine 100 mg tablets in 439 patients treating a single migraine attack with each therapy. Of patients expressing a preference (89.1%), more than twice as many preferred rizatriptan to ergotamine/caffeine (69.9 vs. 30.1%, p < or = 0.001). Faster relief of headache was the most important reason for preference, cited by 67.3% of patients preferring rizatriptan and 54.2% of patients who preferred ergotamine/caffeine. The co-primary endpoint of being pain free at 2 h was also in favor of rizatriptan. Forty-nine percent of patients were pain free 2 h after rizatriptan, compared with 24.3% treated with ergotamine/caffeine (p < or = 0.001), rizatriptan being superior within 1 h of treatment. Headache relief at 2 h was 75.9% for rizatriptan and 47.3% for ergotamine/caffeine (p < or = 0.001), with rizatriptan being superior to ergotamine/caffeine within 30 min of dosing. Almost 36% of patients taking rizatriptan were pain free at 2 h and had no recurrence or need for additional medication within 24 h, compared to 20% of patients on ergotamine/caffeine (p < or = 0.001). Rizatriptan was also superior to ergotamine/caffeine in the proportions of patients with no nausea, vomiting, phonophobia or photophobia and for patients with normal function 2 h after drug intake (p < or = 0.001). More patients were (completely, very or somewhat) satisfied 2 h after treatment with rizatriptan (69.8%) than at 2 h after treatment with ergotamine/caffeine (38.6%, p < or = 0.001). Recurrence rates were 31.4% with rizatriptan and 15.3% with ergotamine/caffeine. Both active treatments were well tolerated. The most common adverse events (incidence > or = 5% in one group) after rizatriptan and ergotamine/caffeine, respectively, were dizziness (6.7 and 5.3%), nausea (4.2 and 8.5%) and somnolence (5.5 and

One patient had thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, three the hemolytic-uremic syndrome, and one an apparent forme fruste of one of these disorders. Histologic examination of the renal tissue showed evidence of intravascular coagulation, primarily affecting the small arteries, arterioles, and glomeruli. Because each patient was tumor-free or had only a small tumor at the onset of this syndrome, the thrombotic microangiopathy may have been induced by chemotherapy. Diagnosis of this potentially fatal complication may be delayed or missed if renal tissue or the peripheral blood smear is not examined, because renal failure may be ascribed to cisplatin nephrotoxicity and the anemia and thrombocytopenia to drug-induced bone marrow suppression.","[{'text': 'Thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 31, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 109, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D002277'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 129, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'microangiopathic hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 195, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 242, 'end': 258, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 281, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'bleomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 292, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D001761'}, {'text': 'vinca alkaloid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D014748'}, {'text': 'thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 341, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D011697'}, {'text': 'hemolytic-uremic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 388, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D006463'}, {'text': 'intravascular coagulation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 537, 'end': 562, 'mesh': 'D004211'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 656, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 687, 'end': 692, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'thrombotic microangiopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 728, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D057049'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 939, 'end': 952, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 982, 'end': 996, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1005, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'bone marrow suppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1072, 'mesh': 'D001855'}]" +455,20528871,"Salvage therapy with nelarabine, etoposide, and cyclophosphamide in relapsed/refractory paediatric T-cell lymphoblastic leukaemia and lymphoma.","A combination of 5 d of nelarabine (AraG) with 5 d of etoposide (VP) and cyclophosphamide (CPM) and prophylactic intrathecal chemotherapy was used as salvage therapy in seven children with refractory or relapsed T-cell leukaemia or lymphoma.

Cervical and inguinal lymph node biopsies showed the features of severe necrotising lymphadenitis, associated with erythrophagocytosis and prominent eosinophilic infiltrates, without viral inclusion bodies, suggestive of an adverse drug reaction.A week later, fulminant drug-induced hepatitis, associated with the presence of anti-nuclear autoantibodies (but not with other markers of autoimmunity), and accompanied by multi-organ failure and sepsis, supervened. She subsequently died some 5 weeks after the commencement of her drug therapy.Post-mortem examination showed evidence of massive hepatocellular necrosis, acute hypersensitivity myocarditis, focal acute tubulo-interstitial nephritis and extensive bone marrow necrosis, with no evidence of malignancy.

METHODS: We sent a questionnaire concerning complications of indocyanine green to 32 institutions in Japan, which were selected on the basis of the client list from the Topcon Company, which manufactures the indocyanine green fundus camera. RESULTS: Ophthalmologists at 15 institutions responded, reporting a total of 3,774 indocyanine green angiograms performed on 2,820 patients between June 1984 and September 1992. Before angiography, intradermal or intravenous indocyanine green testing, or both was performed at 13 of 15 institutions. For three patients, the decision was made not to proceed with angiography after positive preangiographic testing. The dosage of indocyanine green used for angiography varied from 25 to 75 mg, depending upon the institution. There were 13 cases of adverse reactions (0.34%), ten of which were mild reactions such as nausea, exanthema, urtication, itchiness, and urgency to defecate, and did not require treatment. Also recorded were one case of pain of the vein, which required treatment, and two cases of hypotension. The two hypotensive patients required treatment for shock. CONCLUSIONS: A comparison of frequency of adverse reactions to indocyanine green with the previously reported frequency of such reactions to fluorescein sodium indicated that indocyanine green is a safe as fluorescein for use in angiography.","[{'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 213, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 360, 'end': 377, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 476, 'end': 493, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 618, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 821, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1008, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'exanthema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D005076'}, {'text': 'urtication', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'itchiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D011537'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1137, 'end': 1141, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1198, 'end': 1209, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'shock', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'D012769'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1333, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'fluorescein sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1411, 'end': 1429, 'mesh': 'D019793'}, {'text': 'indocyanine green', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'D007208'}, {'text': 'fluorescein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1476, 'end': 1487, 'mesh': 'D019793'}]" +459,19300402,Bradykinin receptors antagonists and nitric oxide synthase inhibitors in vincristine and streptozotocin induced hyperalgesia in chemotherapy and diabetic neuropathy rat model.,"PURPOSE: The influence of an irreversible inhibitor of constitutive NO synthase (L-NOArg; 1.0 mg/kg ip), a relatively selective inhibitor of inducible NO synthase (L-NIL; 1.0 mg/kg ip) and a relatively specific inhibitor of neuronal NO synthase (7-NI; 0.1 mg/kg ip), on antihyperalgesic action of selective antagonists of B2 and B1 receptors: D-Arg-[Hyp3,Thi5,D-Tic7,Oic8] bradykinin (HOE 140; 70 nmol/kg ip) or des Arg10 HOE 140 (70 nmol/kg ip) respectively, in model of diabetic (streptozotocin-induced) and toxic (vincristine-induced) neuropathy was investigated. METHODS: The changes in pain thresholds were determined using mechanical stimuli--the modification of the classic paw withdrawal test described by Randall-Selitto. RESULTS: The results of this paper confirm that inhibition of bradykinin receptors and inducible NO synthase but not neuronal NO synthase activity reduces diabetic hyperalgesia. Pretreatment with L-NOArg and L-NIL but not 7-NI, significantly increases antihyperalgesic activity both HOE 140 and des Arg10 HOE 140. It was also shown that both products of inducible NO synthase and neuronal NO synthase activation as well as bradykinin are involved in hyperalgesia produced by vincristine. Moreover, L-NOArg and 7-NI but not L-NIL intensify antihyperalgesic activity of HOE 140 or des-Arg10HOE 140 in toxic neuropathy. CONCLUSIONS: Results of these studies suggest that B1 and B2 receptors are engaged in transmission of nociceptive stimuli in both diabetic and toxic neuropathy. In streptozotocin-induced hyperalgesia, inducible NO synthase participates in pronociceptive activity of bradykinin, whereas in vincristine-induced hyperalgesia bradykinin seemed to activate neuronal NO synthase pathway. Therefore, concomitant administration of small doses of bradykinin receptor antagonists and NO synthase inhibitors can be effective in alleviation of neuropathic pain, even in hospital care.","[{'text': 'Bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 89, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 112, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'diabetic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 145, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D003929'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 409, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 549, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'HOE 140', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'C065679'}, {'text': 'des Arg10 HOE 140', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 588, 'end': 605, 'mesh': 'C078665'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 767, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 969, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1006, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1033, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'diabetic hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1062, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'HOE 140', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1197, 'mesh': 'C065679'}, {'text': 'des Arg10 HOE 140', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1202, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'C078665'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1273, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1330, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1357, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1382, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'HOE 140', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'C065679'}, {'text': 'des-Arg10HOE 140', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1486, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'C078665'}, {'text': 'toxic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1688, 'end': 1702, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1711, 'end': 1723, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1735, 'end': 1737, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1790, 'end': 1800, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1813, 'end': 1824, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1833, 'end': 1845, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1846, 'end': 1856, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1885, 'end': 1887, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'bradykinin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1962, 'end': 1972, 'mesh': 'D001920'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1998, 'end': 2000, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2056, 'end': 2072, 'mesh': 'D009437'}]" +460,15325671,Cardiac toxicity observed in association with high-dose cyclophosphamide-based chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer.,"INTRODUCTION: Cyclophosphamide is an alkylating agent given frequently as a component of many conditioning regimens. In high doses, its nonhematological dose-limiting toxicity is cardiomyopathy. STUDY DESIGN: We combined paclitaxel, melphalan and high-dose cyclophosphamide, thiotepa, and carboplatin in a triple sequential high-dose regimen for patients with metastatic breast cancer. Analysis was performed on 61 women with chemotherapy-responsive metastatic breast cancer receiving 96-h infusional cyclophosphamide as part of a triple sequential high-dose regimen to assess association between presence of peritransplant congestive heart failure (CHF) and the following pretreatment characteristics: presence of electrocardiogram (EKG) abnormalities, age, hypertension, prior cardiac history, smoking, diabetes mellitus, prior use of anthracyclines, and left-sided chest irradiation. RESULTS: Six of 61 women (10%) developed clinically reversible grade 3 CHF following infusional cyclophosphamide with a median percent decline in ejection fraction of 31%. Incidence of transient cyclophosphamide-related cardiac toxicity (10%) is comparable to previous recorded literature. Older age was significantly correlated with the CHF development; with median ages for the entire group and for patients developing CHF of 45 and 59, respectively. No association was found with other pretreatment characteristics. CONCLUSIONS: As a result of these findings, oncologists should carefully monitor fluid balance in older patients.

Patient response was assessed using changes in CD4+ lymphocyte subset count, HIV p24 antigen, weight, and quality of life. Seventy patients developed major opportunistic infections whilst on therapy; this was the first AIDS diagnosis in 17. Only minor changes in CD4+ lymphocyte subset count were observed in AIDS patients, although a more significant rise occurred in those with earlier stages of disease. Of those positive for p24 antigen at the commencement of the study 67% showed a positive response, and this was most likely in those with CD4+ lymphocyte subset counts above 100 mm3. A positive weight response was seen in 16% of patients. Most patients showed improvement in individual parameters and global score of quality of life. Adverse reactions possibly attributable to didanosine were common. The most common side-effect was diarrhoea, which resulted in cessation of therapy in 19 individuals. Peripheral neuropathy occurred in 12 patients and pancreatitis in six. Thirteen patients developed a raised serum amylase without abdominal pain. Seven patients developed glucose tolerance curves characteristic of diabetes but these were mild, did not require treatment and returned to normal on ceasing didanosine.","[{'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'didanosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D016049'}, {'text': 'ddI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D016049'}, {'text': 'HIV antibody-positive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'zidovudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 104, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'zidovudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 158, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 170, 'end': 173, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'didanosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 184, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D016049'}, {'text': 'ddI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 196, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D016049'}, {'text': 'opportunistic infections', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 394, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D009894'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 457, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 547, 'end': 551, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'didanosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D016049'}, {'text': 'diarrhoea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'Peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'pancreatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1209, 'mesh': 'D010195'}, {'text': 'abdominal pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1291, 'mesh': 'D015746'}, {'text': 'glucose tolerance curves', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1318, 'end': 1342, 'mesh': 'D018149'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1361, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'didanosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1461, 'mesh': 'D016049'}]" +464,20698227,Can angiogenesis be a target of treatment for ribavirin associated hemolytic anemia?,"BACKGROUND/AIMS: Recently ribavirin has been found to inhibit angiogenesis and a number of angiogenesis inhibitors such as sunitinib and sorafenib have been found to cause acute hemolysis. We aimed to investigate whether there is a relation between hemoglobin, haptoglobin and angiogenesis soluble markers which are modifiable and can help in developing strategies against anemia. METHODS: Fourteen patients chronically infected with hepatitis C virus were treated by pegylated interferon alpha 2a and ribavirin. Serum hemoglobin, haptoglobin and angiogenesis markers of vascular endothelial growth factor and angiopoetin-2 were investigated before and after therapy. RESULTS: We observed a significant decrease in haptoglobin levels at the end of the treatment period. Hemoglobin levels also decreased but insignificantly by treatment. In contrast with the literature, serum levels of angiogenesis factors did not change significantly by pegylated interferon and ribavirin therapy. We found no correlation of angiogenesis soluble markers with either hemoglobin or haptoglobin. CONCLUSION: This is the first study in the literature investigating a link between angiogenesis soluble markers and ribavirin induced anemia in patients with hepatitis C and we could not find any relation. Future research with larger number of patients is needed to find out modifiable factors that will improve the safety of ribavirin therapy.","[{'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 46, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 67, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'sunitinib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'C473478'}, {'text': 'sorafenib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 222, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'C471405'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 458, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'chronically infected with hepatitis C virus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 493, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'pegylated interferon alpha 2a', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 553, 'end': 582, 'mesh': 'C100416'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 587, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'pegylated interferon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'C417083'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1279, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1321, 'end': 1332, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1498, 'mesh': 'D012254'}]" +465,20477932,"Cocaine causes memory and learning impairments in rats: involvement of nuclear factor kappa B and oxidative stress, and prevention by topiramate.","Different mechanisms have been suggested for cocaine toxicity including an increase in oxidative stress but the association between oxidative status in the brain and cocaine induced-behaviour is poorly understood. Nuclear factor kappa B (NFkappaB) is a sensor of oxidative stress and participates in memory formation that could be involved in drug toxicity and addiction mechanisms. Therefore NFkappaB activity, oxidative stress, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) activity, spatial learning and memory as well as the effect of topiramate, a previously proposed therapy for cocaine addiction, were evaluated in an experimental model of cocaine administration in rats. NFkappaB activity was decreased in the frontal cortex of cocaine treated rats, as well as GSH concentration and glutathione peroxidase activity in the hippocampus, whereas nNOS activity in the hippocampus was increased. Memory retrieval of experiences acquired prior to cocaine administration was impaired and negatively correlated with NFkappaB activity in the frontal cortex. In contrast, learning of new tasks was enhanced and correlated with the increase of nNOS activity and the decrease of glutathione peroxidase. These results provide evidence for a possible mechanistic role of oxidative and nitrosative stress and NFkappaB in the alterations induced by cocaine.

(+/-)-PG-9 antinociception peaked 15 min after injection and then slowly diminished. The antinociception produced by (+/-)-PG-9 was prevented by the unselective muscarinic antagonist atropine, the M1-selective antagonists pirenzepine and dicyclomine and the acetylcholine depletor hemicholinium-3, but not by the opioid antagonist naloxone, the gamma-aminobutyric acidB antagonist 3-aminopropyl-diethoxy-methyl-phosphinic acid, the H3 agonist R-(alpha)-methylhistamine, the D2 antagonist quinpirole, the 5-hydroxytryptamine4 antagonist 2-methoxy-4-amino-5-chlorobenzoic acid 2-(diethylamino)ethyl ester hydrochloride, the 5-hydroxytryptamin1A antagonist 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-4-[4-(2-phthalimido)butyl]piperazine hydrobromide and the polyamines depletor reserpine.

Affinity profiles of (+/-)-PG-9 for muscarinic receptor subtypes, determined by functional studies (rabbit vas deferens for M1, guinea pig atrium for M2, guinea pig ileum for M3 and immature guinea pig uterus for putative M4), have shown an M4/M1 selectivity ratio of 10.2 that might be responsible for the antinociception and the anti-amnesic effect induced by (+/-)-PG-9 through an increase in acetylcholine extracellular levels.

The increase in free radical generation has been implicated as one of the important mechanisms of cognitive impairment by antiepileptic drugs. Curcumin has shown antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuro-protective properties. Therefore, the present study was carried out to investigate the effect of chronic curcumin administration on phenobarbitone- and carbamazepine-induced cognitive impairment and oxidative stress in rats. Pharmacokinetic interactions of curcumin with phenobarbitone and carbamazepine were also studied. Vehicle/drugs were administered daily for 21days to male Wistar rats. Passive avoidance paradigm and elevated plus maze test were used to assess cognitive function. At the end of study period, serum phenobarbitone and carbamazepine, whole brain malondialdehyde and reduced glutathione levels were estimated. The administration of phenobarbitone and carbamazepine for 21days caused a significant impairment of learning and memory as well as an increased oxidative stress. Concomitant curcumin administration prevented the cognitive impairment and decreased the increased oxidative stress induced by these antiepileptic drugs. Curcumin co-administration did not cause any significant alteration in the serum concentrations of both phenobarbitone as well as carbamazepine. These results show that curcumin has beneficial effect in mitigating the deterioration of cognitive functions and oxidative damage in rats treated with phenobarbitone and carbamazepine without significantly altering their serum concentrations. The findings suggest that curcumin can be considered as a potential safe and effective adjuvant to phenobarbitone and carbamazepine therapy in preventing cognitive impairment associated with these drugs.","[{'text': 'Curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'cognitive dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 21, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 67, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 144, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'cognitive impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 201, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'cognitive impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 336, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'Curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 381, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 546, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 573, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 593, 'end': 606, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'cognitive impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 615, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 698, 'end': 706, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 977, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 982, 'end': 995, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1037, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1113, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'impairment of learning and memory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'cognitive impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1285, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'Curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1389, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1493, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1519, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1566, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'deterioration of cognitive functions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1643, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1686, 'end': 1700, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1705, 'end': 1718, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1804, 'end': 1812, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'phenobarbitone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1877, 'end': 1891, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1896, 'end': 1909, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'cognitive impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1932, 'end': 1952, 'mesh': 'D003072'}]" +471,19767176,Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate protects the piriform cortex in the pilocarpine status epilepticus model.,"Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) has a dual mechanism of action as an antioxidant and an inhibitor of the transcription factor kappa-beta. Both, production of reactive oxygen species as well as activation of NF-kappaB have been implicated in severe neuronal damage in different sub-regions of the hippocampus as well as in the surrounding cortices. The effect of PDTC on status epilepticus-associated cell loss in the hippocampus and piriform cortex was evaluated in the rat fractionated pilocarpine model. Treatment with 150 mg/kg PDTC before and following status epilepticus significantly increased the mortality rate to 100%. Administration of 50 mg/kg PDTC (low-dose) did not exert major effects on the development of a status epilepticus or the mortality rate. In vehicle-treated rats, status epilepticus caused pronounced neuronal damage in the piriform cortex comprising both pyramidal cells and interneurons. Low-dose PDTC treatment almost completely protected from lesions in the piriform cortex. A significant decrease in neuronal density of the hippocampal hilar formation was identified in vehicle- and PDTC-treated rats following status epilepticus. In conclusion, the NF-kappaB inhibitor and antioxidant PDTC protected the piriform cortex, whereas it did not affect hilar neuronal loss. These data might indicate that the generation of reactive oxygen species and activation of NF-kappaB plays a more central role in seizure-associated neuronal damage in the temporal cortex as compared to the hippocampal hilus. However, future investigations are necessary to exactly analyze the biochemical mechanisms by which PDTC exerted its beneficial effects in the piriform cortex.","[{'text': 'Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 64, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 76, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 272, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'neuronal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 353, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 467, 'end': 471, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 493, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 640, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 662, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 828, 'end': 846, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 895, 'end': 913, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'neuronal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 932, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1223, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1265, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1322, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'C020972'}, {'text': 'neuronal loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1403, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1463, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1542, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neuronal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1554, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'PDTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1731, 'end': 1735, 'mesh': 'C020972'}]" +472,16330293,"Safety profile of a nicotine lozenge compared with that of nicotine gum in adult smokers with underlying medical conditions: a 12-week, randomized, open-label study.","BACKGROUND: Nicotine polacrilex lozenges deliver 25% to 27% more nicotine compared with equivalent doses of nicotine polacrilex gum. The increased nicotine exposure from the lozenge has raised questions about the relative safety of the lozenge and gum. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare the safety profiles of the 4-mg nicotine lozenge and 4-mg nicotine gum in smokers with selected label-restricted diseases. METHODS: This was a multicenter, randomized, open-label study in adult smokers with heart disease, hypertension not controlled by medication, and/or diabetes mellitus. Patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive the 4-mg nicotine lozenge or 4-mg nicotine gum. Safety assessments were made at baseline and at 2, 4, 6, and 12 weeks after the start of product use. RESULTS: Nine hundred one patients were randomized to treatment, 447 who received the lozenge and 454 who received the gum (safety population). The majority were women (52.7%). Patients' mean age was 53.9 years, their mean weight was 193.9 pounds, and they smoked a mean of 25.2 cigarettes per day at baseline. Five hundred fifty-three patients, 264 taking the lozenge and 289 taking the gum, used the study product for > or =4 days per week during the first 2 weeks (evaluable population). The nicotine lozenge and nicotine gum were equally well tolerated, despite increased nicotine exposure from the lozenge. The incidence of adverse events in the 2 groups was similar during the first 2 weeks of product use (evaluation population: 55.3% lozenge, 54.7% gum), as well as during the entire study (safety population: 63.8% and 58.6%, respectively). Stratification of patients by sex, age, extent of concurrent smoking, extent of product use, and severity of adverse events revealed no clinically significant differences between the lozenge and gum. The most common adverse events were nausea (17.2% and 16.1%; 95% CI, -3.7 to 6.0), hiccups (10.7% and 6.6%; 95% CI, 0.5 to 7.8), and headache (8.7% and 9.9%; 95% Cl, -5.0 to 2.6). Serious adverse events were reported in 11 and 13 patients in the respective groups.

Due to the interdependence of risk factors in clinical populations, it is difficult to independently examine factors that may influence the development of LIDs. Using macaque monkeys with different types of MPTP-induced parkinsonism, the current study evaluated the degree to which rate of symptom progression, symptom severity, and response to and duration of levodopa therapy may be involved in the development of LIDs. Monkeys with acute (short-term) MPTP exposure, rapid symptom onset and short symptom duration prior to initiation of levodopa therapy developed dyskinesia between 11 and 24 days of daily levodopa administration. In contrast, monkeys with long-term MPTP exposure, slow symptom progression and/or long symptom duration prior to initiation of levodopa therapy were more resistant to developing LIDs (e.g., dyskinesia developed no sooner than 146 days of chronic levodopa administration). All animals were similarly symptomatic at the start of levodopa treatment and had similar therapeutic responses to the drug. These data suggest distinct differences in the propensity to develop LIDs in monkeys with different rates of symptom progression or symptom durations prior to levodopa and demonstrate the value of these models for further studying the pathophysiology of LIDs.","[{'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 15, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 47, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'Levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 135, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 152, 'end': 163, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 165, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 227, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 248, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 417, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 482, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 678, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 716, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 801, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 828, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 871, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 932, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1079, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1143, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1232, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1363, 'end': 1367, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1453, 'end': 1461, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +474,11250767,Propylthiouracil-induced perinuclear-staining antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody-positive vasculitis in conjunction with pericarditis.,"OBJECTIVE: To describe a case of propylthiouracil-induced vasculitis manifesting with pericarditis. METHODS: We present the first case report of a woman with hyperthyroidism treated with propylthiouracil in whom a syndrome of pericarditis, fever, and glomerulonephritis developed. Serologic testing and immunologic studies were done, and a pericardial biopsy was performed. RESULTS: A 25-year-old woman with Graves' disease had a febrile illness and evidence of pericarditis, which was confirmed by biopsy. Serologic evaluation revealed the presence of perinuclear-staining antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (pANCA) against myeloperoxidase (MPO). Propylthiouracil therapy was withdrawn, and she was treated with a 1-month course of prednisone, which alleviated her symptoms. A literature review revealed no prior reports of pericarditis in anti-MPO pANCA-positive vasculitis associated with propylthio- uracil therapy. CONCLUSION: Pericarditis may be the initial manifestation of drug-induced vasculitis attributable to propylthio- uracil therapy.","[{'text': 'Propylthiouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 95, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': 'pericarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 126, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D010493'}, {'text': 'propylthiouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 198, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': 'pericarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D010493'}, {'text': 'hyperthyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 298, 'end': 313, 'mesh': 'D006980'}, {'text': 'propylthiouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 343, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'pericarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 366, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D010493'}, {'text': 'fever', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 380, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 391, 'end': 409, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': ""Graves' disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 548, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D006111'}, {'text': 'febrile illness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 570, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'pericarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 602, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D010493'}, {'text': 'Propylthiouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 795, 'end': 811, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'prednisone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 880, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'pericarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 984, 'mesh': 'D010493'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1012, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': 'propylthio- uracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1057, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'Pericarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1079, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'D010493'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': 'propylthio- uracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1186, 'mesh': 'D011441'}]" +475,11206082,Two mouse lines selected for differential sensitivities to beta-carboline-induced seizures are also differentially sensitive to various pharmacological effects of other GABA(A) receptor ligands.,"Two mouse lines were selectively bred according to their sensitivity (BS line) or resistance (BR line) to seizures induced by a single i.p. injection of methyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta-CCM), an inverse agonist of the GABA(A) receptor benzodiazepine site.

Animal and clinical studies have suggested that N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists, such as ketamine, may be effective in improving opioid analgesia in difficult pain syndromes, such as neuropathic pain. A slow bolus of subhypnotic doses of ketamine (0.25 mg/kg or 0.50 mg/kg) was given to 10 cancer patients whose pain was unrelieved by morphine in a randomized, double-blind, crossover, double-dose study. Pain intensity on a 0 to 10 numerical scale; nausea and vomiting, drowsiness, confusion, and dry mouth, using a scale from 0 to 3 (not at all, slight, a lot, awful); Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) (0-30); and arterial pressure were recorded before administration of drugs (T0) and after 30 minutes (T30), 60 minutes (T60), 120 minutes (T120), and 180 minutes (T180). Ketamine, but not saline solution, significantly reduced the pain intensity in almost all the patients at both doses. This effect was more relevant in patients treated with higher doses. Hallucinations occurred in 4 patients, and an unpleasant sensation (""empty head"") was also reported by 2 patients. These episodes reversed after the administration of diazepam 1 mg intravenously. Significant increases in drowsiness were reported in patients treated with ketamine in both groups and were more marked with ketamine 0.50 mg/kg. A significant difference in MMSE was observed at T30 in patients who received 0.50 mg/kg of ketamine. Ketamine can improve morphine analgesia in difficult pain syndromes, such as neuropathic pain. However, the occurrence of central adverse effects should be taken into account, especially when using higher doses. This observation should be tested in studies of prolonged ketamine administration.","[{'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 151, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 174, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 302, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 372, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 396, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 451, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 503, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 525, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 618, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 663, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 674, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 696, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'dry mouth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 711, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D014987'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 991, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1052, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'Hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1449, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1499, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1620, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1622, 'end': 1630, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1643, 'end': 1651, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1675, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1699, 'end': 1715, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1892, 'end': 1900, 'mesh': 'D007649'}]" +477,9334596,"Endocrine screening in 1,022 men with erectile dysfunction: clinical significance and cost-effective strategy.","PURPOSE: We reviewed the results of serum testosterone and prolactin determination in 1,022 patients referred because of erectile dysfunction and compared the data with history, results of physical examination, other etiological investigations and effects of endocrine therapy to refine the rules of cost-effective endocrine screening and to pinpoint actual responsibility for hormonal abnormalities. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Testosterone and prolactin were determined by radioimmunoassay. Every patient was screened for testosterone and 451 were screened for prolactin on the basis of low sexual desire, gynecomastia or testosterone less than 4 ng./ml. Determination was repeated in case of abnormal first results. Prolactin results were compared with those of a previous personal cohort of 1,340 patients with erectile dysfunction and systematic prolactin determination. Main clinical criteria tested regarding efficiency in hormone determination were low sexual desire, small testes and gynecomastia. Endocrine therapy consisted of testosterone heptylate or human chorionic gonadotropin for hypogonadism and bromocriptine for hyperprolactinemia. RESULTS: Testosterone was less than 3 ng./ml. in 107 patients but normal in 40% at repeat determination. The prevalence of repeatedly low testosterone increased with age (4% before age 50 years and 9% 50 years or older). Two pituitary tumors were discovered after testosterone determination. Most of the other low testosterone levels seemed to result from nonorganic hypothalamic dysfunction because of normal serum luteinizing hormone and prolactin and to have only a small role in erectile dysfunction (definite improvement in only 16 of 44 [36%] after androgen therapy, normal morning or nocturnal erections in 30% and definite vasculogenic contributions in 42%). Determining testosterone only in cases of low sexual desire or abnormal physical examination would have missed 40% of the cases with low testosterone, including 37% of those subsequently improved by androgen therapy. Prolactin exceeded 20 ng./ml. in 5 men and was normal in 2 at repeat determination. Only 1 prolactinoma was discovered. These data are lower than those we found during the last 2 decades (overall prolactin greater than 20 ng./ml. in 1.86% of 1,821 patients, prolactinomas in 7, 0.38%). Bromocriptine was definitely effective in cases with prolactin greater than 35 ng./ml. (8 of 12 compared to only 9 of 22 cases with prolactin between 20 and 35 ng./ml.). Testosterone was low in less than 50% of cases with prolactin greater than 35 ng./ml. CONCLUSIONS: Low prevalences and effects of low testosterone and high prolactin in erectile dysfunction cannot justify their routine determination.

We now advocate that before age 50 years testosterone be determined only in cases of low sexual desire and abnormal physical examination but that it be measured in all men older than 50 years.

In a randomized, double-blind trial, 90 women were allocated to receive one of three treatments prior to induction of anaesthesia with propofol. Patients in Group C received 2 ml normal saline, Group L, 2 ml, lidocaine 2% (40 mg) and Group T, 2 ml thiopentone 2.5% (50 mg). Venous discomfort was assessed with a visual analogue scale (VAS) 5-15 sec after commencing propofol administration using an infusion pump (rate 1000 micrograms.kg-1.min-1). Loss of consciousness occurred in 60-90 sec. Visual analogue scores (mean +/- SD) during induction were lower in Groups L (3.3 +/- 2.5) and T (4.1 +/- 2.7) than in Group C (5.6 +/- 2.3); P = 0.0031. The incidence of venous discomfort was lower in Group L (76.6%; P < 0.05) than in Group C (100%) but not different from Group T (90%). The VAS scores for recall of pain in the recovery room were correlated with the VAS scores during induction (r = 0.7045; P < 0.0001). Recovery room discharge times were similar: C (75.9 +/- 19.4 min); L 73.6 +/- 21.6 min); T (77.1 +/- 18.9 min). Assessing their overall satisfaction, 89.7% would choose propofol anaesthesia again. We conclude that lidocaine reduces the incidence and severity of propofol injection pain in ambulatory patients whereas thiopentone only reduces its severity.","[{'text': 'Thiopentone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 48, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 120, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 307, 'end': 315, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 381, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'thiopentone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 420, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 538, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'Loss of consciousness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 620, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D014474'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 983, 'end': 987, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1257, 'end': 1265, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1311, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1350, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1369, 'end': 1373, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'thiopentone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D013874'}]" +479,6466532,Comparison of i.v. glycopyrrolate and atropine in the prevention of bradycardia and arrhythmias following repeated doses of suxamethonium in children.,"The effectiveness of administration of glycopyrrolate 5 and 10 micrograms kg-1 and atropine 10 and 20 micrograms kg-1 i.v. immediately before the induction of anaesthesia, to prevent arrhythmia and bradycardia following repeated doses of suxamethonium in children, was studied. A control group was included for comparison with the lower dose range of glycopyrrolate and atropine.

Because salicylates have been reported to augment the stimulatory effects of caffeine on the CNS, attention was focused on the possibility that the presence of acetaminophen (52 micrograms/mL) reduced the CNS toxicity of caffeine. Studies in DBA/2J mice showed that: 1) pretreatment with acetaminophen (100 mg/kg) increased the interval between the administration of caffeine (300 to 450 mg/kg IP) and the onset of fatal convulsions by a factor of about two; and 2) pretreatment with acetaminophen (75 mg/kg) reduced the incidence of audiogenic seizures produced in the presence of caffeine (12.5 to 75 mg/kg IP). The frequency of sound-induced seizures after 12.5 or 25 mg/kg caffeine was reduced from 50 to 5% by acetaminophen. In the absence of caffeine, acetaminophen (up to 300 mg/kg) did not modify the seizures induced by maximal electroshock and did not alter the convulsant dose of pentylenetetrezol in mice (tests performed by the Anticonvulsant Screening Project of NINCDS). Acetaminophen (up to 150 micrograms/mL) did not retard the incorporation of radioactive adenosine into ATP in slices of rat cerebral cortex. Thus the mechanism by which acetaminophen antagonizes the actions of caffeine in the CNS remains unknown.","[{'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 22, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'sodium acetylsalicylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 161, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 177, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 377, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 460, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 509, 'end': 517, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 521, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 588, 'end': 601, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 667, 'end': 675, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 721, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 784, 'end': 797, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 845, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 882, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 945, 'end': 953, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 977, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1048, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1058, 'end': 1071, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1109, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pentylenetetrezol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'Acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1299, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1374, 'end': 1383, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1389, 'end': 1392, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1468, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1496, 'end': 1504, 'mesh': 'D002110'}]" +481,2870085,Flestolol: an ultra-short-acting beta-adrenergic blocking agent.,"Flestolol (ACC-9089) is a nonselective, competitive, ultra-short-acting beta-adrenergic blocking agent, without any intrinsic sympathomimetic activity. Flestolol is metabolized by plasma esterases and has an elimination half-life of approximately 6.5 minutes. This agent was well tolerated in healthy volunteers at doses up to 100 micrograms/kg/min. In long-term infusion studies, flestolol was well tolerated at the effective beta-blocking dose (5 micrograms/kg/min) for up to seven days. Flestolol blood concentrations increased linearly with increasing dose and good correlation exists between blood concentrations of flestolol and beta-adrenergic blockade. Flestolol produced a dose-dependent attenuation of isoproterenol-induced tachycardia. Electrophysiologic and hemodynamic effects of flestolol are similar to those of other beta blockers. In contrast with other beta blockers, flestolol-induced effects reverse rapidly (within 30 minutes) following discontinuation because of its short half-life. Flestolol effectively reduced heart rate in patients with supraventricular tachyarrhythmia. In patients with unstable angina, flestolol infusion was found to be safe and effective in controlling chest pain. It is concluded that flestolol is a potent, well-tolerated, ultra-short-acting beta-adrenergic blocking agent. Use of flestolol in the critical care setting is currently undergoing investigation.","[{'text': 'Flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'Flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'ACC-9089', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 76, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'Flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 217, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'Flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 555, 'end': 564, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 686, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'Flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 726, 'end': 735, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 777, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 799, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 858, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 951, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'Flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1080, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'supraventricular tachyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1161, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'unstable angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'D000789'}, {'text': 'flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1266, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'C047847'}, {'text': 'flestolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1396, 'end': 1405, 'mesh': 'C047847'}]" +482,1639466,Adverse effect of the calcium channel blocker nitrendipine on nephrosclerosis in rats with renovascular hypertension.,"The effect of a 6-week treatment with the calcium channel blocker nitrendipine or the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril on blood pressure, albuminuria, renal hemodynamics, and morphology of the nonclipped kidney was studied in rats with two-kidney, one clip renovascular hypertension. Six weeks after clipping of one renal artery, hypertensive rats (178 +/- 4 mm Hg) were randomly assigned to three groups: untreated hypertensive controls (n = 8), enalapril-treated (n = 8), or nitrendipine-treated (n = 10). Sham-operated rats served as normotensive controls (128 +/- 3 mm Hg, n = 8). After 6 weeks of treatment, renal hemodynamics (glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow) were measured in the anesthetized rats. Renal tissue was obtained for determination of glomerular size and sclerosis. Enalapril but not nitrendipine reduced blood pressure significantly. After 6 weeks of therapy, glomerular filtration rate was not different among the studied groups. Renal plasma flow increased, but albumin excretion and glomerulosclerosis did not change after enalapril treatment.

This paper presents the results of treating IST by intratympanic instillation of lignocaine (lidocaine) 2 per cent through a grommet, for five weekly courses. Fifty-two patients suffering from intractable tinnitus entered this therapeutic trial, but only nine finished all five courses. In one patient, the tinnitus was almost completely abolished, but in all the nine patients the decompensated tinnitus changed to a compensated one. We suggest this mode of treatment for patients that were previously treated by drugs, acupuncture and biofeedback, with disappointing results. Patients should be warned about the side effects of vertigo and vomiting, which subsides gradually with every new instillation, and that the tinnitus may not disappear but will be alleviated, enabling them to cope more easily with the disease and lead a more normal life.","[{'text': 'tinnitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 13, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D014012'}, {'text': 'lignocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 67, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'Idiopathic subjective tinnitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 116, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D014012'}, {'text': 'IST', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 148, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D014012'}, {'text': 'IST', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 248, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D014012'}, {'text': 'lignocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 285, 'end': 295, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 297, 'end': 306, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'tinnitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 409, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D014012'}, {'text': 'tinnitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 511, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D014012'}, {'text': 'tinnitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 600, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D014012'}, {'text': 'vertigo', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 834, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D014717'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 846, 'end': 854, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'tinnitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 923, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D014012'}]" +484,220563,Perhexiline maleate and peripheral neuropathy.,"Peripheral neuropathy has been noted as a complication of therapy with perhexiline maleate, a drug widely used in France (and in clinical trials in the United States) for the prophylactic treatment of angina pectoris.

The subcutaneous administration of 10 mg/kg of morphine-HC1 produced a marked increase in locomotor activity in mice. The morphine-induced hyperactivity was potentiated by scopolamine and attenuated by physostigmine. In contrast, both methscopolamine and neostigmine, which do not penetrate the blood-brain barrier, had no effect on the hyperactivity produced by morphine. Pretreatment of mice with alpha-methyltyrosine (20 mg/kg i.p., one hour), an inhibitor of tyrosine hydroxylase, significantly decreased the activity-increasing effects of morphine. On the other hand, pretreatment with p-chlorophenylalamine (3 X 320 mg/kg i.p., 24 hr), a serotonin depletor, caused no significant change in the hyperactivity. The study suggests that the activity-increasing effects of morphine are mediated by the release of catecholamines from adrenergic neurons in the brain. And the results are consistent with the hypothesis that morphine acts by retarding the release of acetylcholine at some central cholinergic synapses. It is also suggested from collected evidence that the activity-increasing effects of morphine in mice are mediated by mechanisms different from those which mediate the activity-increasing effects of morphine in rats.","[{'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'increase in locomotor activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 129, 'end': 137, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'increase in locomotor activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 146, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 245, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'increase in locomotor activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 276, 'end': 306, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 320, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 370, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'physostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 400, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'methscopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D019832'}, {'text': 'neostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 453, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 535, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 569, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyltyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D019805'}, {'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 661, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'p-chlorophenylalamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 789, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D010134'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 842, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 898, 'end': 911, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 980, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'catecholamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1012, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1121, 'end': 1129, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1300, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1422, 'mesh': 'D009020'}]" +486,9931093,Mechanisms of FK 506-induced hypertension in the rat.,"-Tacrolimus (FK 506) is a powerful, widely used immunosuppressant. The clinical utility of FK 506 is complicated by substantial hypertension and nephrotoxicity. To clarify the mechanisms of FK 506-induced hypertension, we studied the chronic effects of FK 506 on the synthesis of endothelin-1 (ET-1), the expression of mRNA of ET-1 and endothelin-converting enzyme-1 (ECE-1), the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activity, and the expression of mRNA of eNOS and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) in rat blood vessels. In addition, the effect of the specific endothelin type A receptor antagonist FR 139317 on FK 506-induced hypertension in rats was studied. FK 506, 5 mg. kg-1. d-1 given for 4 weeks, elevated blood pressure from 102+/-13 to 152+/-15 mm Hg and increased the synthesis of ET-1 and the levels of ET-1 mRNA in the mesenteric artery (240% and 230%, respectively). Little change was observed in the expression of ECE-1 mRNA and CNP mRNA. FK 506 decreased eNOS activity and the levels of eNOS mRNA in the aorta (48% and 55%, respectively). The administration of FR 139317 (10 mg. kg-1. d-1) prevented FK 506-induced hypertension in rats. These results indicate that FK 506 may increase blood pressure not only by increasing ET-1 production but also by decreasing NO synthesis in the vasculature.","[{'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 14, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 29, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 67, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 182, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 259, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 307, 'end': 313, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'FR 139317', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 657, 'end': 666, 'mesh': 'C079574'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 685, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 719, 'end': 725, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1017, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FR 139317', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'C079574'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1188, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'FK 506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1238, 'end': 1244, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D009569'}]" +487,20633755,Suxamethonium induced prolonged apnea in a patient receiving electroconvulsive therapy.,"Suxamethonium causes prolonged apnea in patients in whom pseudocholinesterase enzyme gets deactivated by organophosphorus (OP) poisons.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: The randomized sample consisted of 234 euthymic men who were receiving some type of SSRI. The men were randomly assigned to bupropion SR (150 mg twice daily, 117) or placebo (twice daily, 117) for 12 weeks. Efficacy was evaluated using the Clinical Global Impression-Sexual Function (CGI-SF; the primary outcome measure), the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), Arizona Sexual Experience Scale (ASEX), and Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction (EDITS) (secondary outcome measures). Participants were followed biweekly during study period. RESULTS: After 12 weeks of treatment, the mean (sd) scores for CGI-SF were significantly lower, i.e. better, in patients on bupropion SR, at 2.4 (1.2), than in the placebo group, at 3.9 (1.1) (P= 0.01). Men who received bupropion had a significant increase in the total IIEF score (54.4% vs 1.2%; P= 0.003), and in the five different domains of the IIEF. Total ASEX scores were significantly lower, i.e. better, among men who received bupropion than placebo, at 15.5 (4.3) vs 21.5 (4.7) (P= 0.002). The EDITS scores were 67.4 (10.2) for the bupropion and 36.3 (11.7) for the placebo group (P= 0.001). The ASEX score and CGI-SF score were correlated (P= 0.003). In linear regression analyses the CGI-SF score was not affected significantly by the duration of SD, type of SSRI used and age. CONCLUSIONS: Bupropion is an effective treatment for male SD induced by SSRIs.

Cancer patients who are chronic carriers of HBV have a higher hepatic complication rate while receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy (CT) and this has mainly been attributed to HBV reactivation. In this study, cancer patients who have solid and hematological malignancies with chronic HBV infection received the antiviral agent lamivudine prior and during CT compared with historical control group who did not receive lamivudine. The objectives were to assess the efficacy of lamivudine in reducing the incidence of HBV reactivation, and diminishing morbidity and mortality during CT. Two groups were compared in this study. The prophylactic lamivudin group consisted of 37 patients who received prophylactic lamivudine treatment. The historical controls consisted of 50 consecutive patients who underwent CT without prophylactic lamivudine. They were followed up during and for 8 weeks after CT. The outcomes were compared for both groups. Of our control group (n= 50), 21 patients (42%) were established hepatitis. Twelve (24%) of them were evaluated as severe hepatitis. In the prophylactic lamivudine group severe hepatitis were observed only in 1 patient (2.7%) of 37 patients (p < 0.006). Comparison of the mean ALT values revealed significantly higher mean alanine aminotransferase (ALT) values in the control group than the prophylactic lamivudine group; 154:64 (p < 0.32). Our study suggests that prophylactic lamivudine significantly decreases the incidence of HBV reactivation and overall morbidity in cancer patients during and after immunosuppressive therapy.

Previous studies have demonstrated that Rg1 might be a useful agent for the prevention and treatment of the adverse effects of morphine. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Rg1 on learning impairment by chronic morphine administration and the mechanism responsible for this effect. Male rats were subcutaneously injected with morphine (10 mg/kg) twice a day at 12 hour intervals for 10 days, and Rg1 (30 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected 2 hours after the second injection of morphine once a day for 10 days. Spatial learning capacity was assessed in the Morris water maze. The results showed that rats treated with Morphine/Rg1 decreased escape latency and increased the time spent in platform quadrant and entering frequency. By implantation of electrodes and electrophysiological recording in vivo, the results showed that Rg1 restored the long-term potentiation (LTP) impaired by morphine in both freely moving and anaesthetised rats. The electrophysiological recording in vitro showed that Rg1 restored the LTP in slices from the rats treated with morphine, but not changed LTP in the slices from normal saline- or morphine/Rg1-treated rats; this restoration could be inhibited by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist MK801. We conclude that Rg1 may significantly improve the spatial learning capacity impaired by chonic morphine administration and restore the morphine-inhibited LTP. This effect is NMDA receptor dependent.","[{'text': 'Ginsenoside Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'impairment of learning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 29, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D007859'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 71, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 104, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'ginsenoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 114, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D036145'}, {'text': 'learning impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 181, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D007859'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 242, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 329, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'learning impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 401, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D007859'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 432, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 547, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 617, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 701, 'end': 709, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 841, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 850, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1054, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1109, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1220, 'end': 1223, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1286, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1357, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1411, 'end': 1431, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1433, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'MK801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1486, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1602, 'end': 1610, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1641, 'end': 1645, 'mesh': 'D016202'}]" +491,17931375,A study on the effect of the duration of subcutaneous heparin injection on bruising and pain.,"AIM: This study was carried out to determine the effect of injection duration on bruising and pain following the administration of the subcutaneous injection of heparin. BACKGROUND: Although different methods to prevent bruising and pain following the subcutaneous injection of heparin have been widely studied and described, the effect of injection duration on the occurrence of bruising and pain is little documented. DESIGN: This study was designed as within-subject, quasi-experimental research. METHOD: The sample for the study consisted of 50 patients to whom subcutaneous heparin was administered. Heparin was injected over 10 seconds on the right abdominal site and 30 seconds on the left abdominal site. Injections areas were assessed for the presence of bruising at 48 and 72 hours after each injection. Dimensions of the bruising on the heparin applied areas were measured using transparent millimetric measuring paper. The visual analog scale (VAS) was used to measure pain intensity and a stop-watch was used to time the pain period. Data were analysed using chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U, Wilcoxon signed ranks tests and correlation. RESULTS: The percentage of bruising occurrence was 64% with the injection of 10 seconds duration and 42% in the 30-second injection. It was determined that the size of the bruising was smaller in the 30-second injection. Pain intensity and pain period were statistically significantly lower for the 30-second injection than for the 10-second injection. CONCLUSIONS: It was determined that injection duration had an effect on bruising and pain following the subcutaneous administration of heparin. This study should be repeated on a larger sample. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: When administering subcutaneous heparin injections, it is important to extend the duration of the injection.","[{'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 75, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 88, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 175, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 255, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 314, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 327, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 372, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 474, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 487, 'end': 491, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 673, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'Heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 699, 'end': 706, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 858, 'end': 866, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 926, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 942, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1079, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1128, 'end': 1132, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1424, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1484, 'end': 1488, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'bruising', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1669, 'end': 1677, 'mesh': 'D003288'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1682, 'end': 1686, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1732, 'end': 1739, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1855, 'end': 1862, 'mesh': 'D006493'}]" +492,15649445,Acute reserpine and subchronic haloperidol treatments change synaptosomal brain glutamate uptake and elicit orofacial dyskinesia in rats.,"Reserpine- and haloperidol-induced orofacial dyskinesia are putative animal models of tardive dyskinesia (TD) whose pathophysiology has been related to free radical generation and oxidative stress. In the present study, the authors induced orofacial dyskinesia by acute reserpine and subchronic haloperidol administration to rats. Reserpine injection (one dose of 1 mg/kg s.c.) every other day for 3 days caused a significant increase in vacuous chewing, tongue protrusion and duration of facial twitching, compared to the control. Haloperidol administration (one dose of 12 mg/kg once a week s.c.) for 4 weeks caused an increase in vacuous chewing, tongue protrusion and duration of facial twitching observed in four weekly evaluations. After the treatments and behavioral observation, glutamate uptake by segments of the brain was analyzed. A decreased glutamate uptake was observed in the subcortical parts of animals treated with reserpine and haloperidol, compared to the control. Importantly, a decrease in glutamate uptake correlates negatively with an increase in the incidence of orofacial diskinesia. These results indicate that early changes in glutamate transport may be related to the development of vacuous chewing movements in rats.","[{'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 6, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'orofacial dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 108, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'Reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 153, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'orofacial dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 173, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'tardive dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 224, 'end': 242, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'TD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'orofacial dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 378, 'end': 398, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'Reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'Haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 925, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 993, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1081, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'orofacial diskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D018698'}]" +493,14698717,Acute psychosis due to treatment with phenytoin in a nonepileptic patient.,"The development of psychosis related to antiepileptic drug treatment is usually attributed to the interaction between the epileptic brain substratum and the antiepileptic drugs.

Rats were treated with the vehicle (2 mL/kg of distilled water and 5% w/v cellulose, 10 days), gum Arabic (2 mL/kg of a 10% w/v aqueous suspension of gum Arabic powder, orally for 10 days), or gum Arabic concomitantly with GM (80mg/kg/day intramuscularly, during the last six days of the treatment period). Nephrotoxicity was assessed by measuring the concentrations of creatinine and urea in the plasma and reduced glutathione (GSH) in the kidney cortex, and by light microscopic examination of kidney sections. The results indicated that concomitant treatment with gum Arabic and GM significantly increased creatinine and urea by about 183 and 239%, respectively (compared to 432 and 346%, respectively, in rats treated with cellulose and GM), and decreased that of cortical GSH by 21% (compared to 27% in the cellulose plus GM group) The GM-induced proximal tubular necrosis appeared to be slightly less severe in rats given GM together with gum Arabic than in those given GM and cellulose. It could be inferred that gum Arabic treatment has induced a modest amelioration of some of the histological and biochemical indices of GM nephrotoxicity.

Although visual hallucinations have not been reported as an adverse effect of this agent, we describe three patients who experienced complex visual hallucinations and altered mental status after zonisamide treatment was begun or its dosage increased. All three had been diagnosed earlier with epilepsy, and their electroencephalogram (EEG) findings were abnormal. During monitoring, visual hallucinations did not correlate with EEG readings, nor did video recording capture any of the described events. None of the patients had experienced visual hallucinations before this event. The only recent change in their treatment was the introduction or increased dosage of zonisamide. With either discontinuation or decreased dosage of the drug the symptoms disappeared and did not recur. Further observations and reports will help clarify this adverse effect.

A marker of acute podocyte injury.,"Glomerular epithelial protein 1 (GLEPP1) is a podocyte receptor membrane protein tyrosine phosphatase located on the apical cell membrane of visceral glomerular epithelial cell and foot processes. This receptor plays a role in regulating the structure and function of podocyte foot process. To better understand the utility of GLEPP1 as a marker of glomerular injury, the amount and distribution of GLEPP1 protein and mRNA were examined by immunohistochemistry, Western blot and RNase protection assay in a model of podocyte injury in the rat. Puromycin aminonucleoside nephrosis was induced by single intraperitoneal injection of puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN, 20 mg/100g BW). Tissues were analyzed at 0, 5, 7, 11, 21, 45, 80 and 126 days after PAN injection so as to include both the acute phase of proteinuria associated with foot process effacement (days 5-11) and the chronic phase of proteinuria associated with glomerulosclerosis (days 45-126). At day 5, GLEPP1 protein and mRNA were reduced from the normal range (265.2 +/- 79.6 x 10(6) moles/glomerulus and 100%) to 15% of normal (41.8 +/- 4.8 x 10(6) moles/glomerulus, p < 0.005). This occurred in association with an increase in urinary protein content from 1.8 +/- 1 to 99.0 +/- 61 mg/day (p < 0.001). In contrast, podocalyxin did not change significantly at this time. By day 11, GLEPP1 protein and mRNA had begun to return towards baseline. By day 45-126, at a time when glomerular scarring was present, GLEPP1 was absent from glomerulosclerotic areas although the total glomerular content of GLEPP1 was not different from normal. We conclude that GLEPP1 expression, unlike podocalyxin, reflects podocyte injury induced by PAN. GLEPP1 expression may be a useful marker of podocyte injury.","[{'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 52, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 183, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'glomerular injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 646, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 672, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 733, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 763, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 852, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 904, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 993, 'end': 1004, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1021, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1790, 'end': 1793, 'mesh': 'D011692'}]" +497,9401499,Ticlopidine-induced aplastic anemia: report of three Chinese patients and review of the literature.,"In this study, three Chinese patients with ticlopidine-induced aplastic anemia were reported and another 13 patients in the English literature were reviewed. We attempted to find underlying similarities, evaluate the risk factors, and identify appropriate treatment for this complication. All but one of the patients were over 60 years old, and the 6 who died were all older than 65. Therefore, old age may be a risk factor for developing this complication.

There seemed to be no direct correlation between the dose or duration used and the severity of bone marrow suppression.

Similarly, pre-test scopolamine partially reversed the scopolamine-induced amnesia, but not significantly; and pre-test cycloheximide failed to reverse the cycloheximide-induced amnesia.

Apomorphine, a nonselective dopamine agonist, was selected due to its biphasic behavioral effects, its ability to induce hypothermia, and to produce distinct changes to dopamine turnover in the rodent brain. From such experiments there is evidence that characterization and detection of apomorphine-induced activity in rodents critically depends upon the test conditions employed. In rats, detection of apomorphine-induced hyperactivity was facilitated by a period of acclimatization to the test conditions. Moreover, test conditions can impact upon other physiological responses to apomorphine such as drug-induced hypothermia. In mice, apomorphine produced qualitatively different responses under novel conditions when compared to those behaviors elicited in the home test cage. Drug-induced gross activity counts were increased in the novel exploratory box only, while measures of stereotypic behavior were similar in both. By contrast, apomorphine-induced locomotion was more prominent in the novel exploratory box. Dopamine turnover ratios (DOPAC:DA and HVA:DA) were found to be lower in those animals exposed to the exploratory box when compared to their home cage counterparts. However, apomorphine-induced reductions in striatal dopamine turnover were detected in both novel and home cage environments. The implications of these findings are discussed with particular emphasis upon conducting psychopharmacological challenge tests in rodents.","[{'text': 'Apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 296, 'end': 307, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'dopamine agonist', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'D018491'}, {'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 417, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 465, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 699, 'end': 710, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 719, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 879, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 912, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 934, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1236, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'Dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1316, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DOPAC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1347, 'mesh': 'D015102'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1348, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D018491'}, {'text': 'HVA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D006719'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1359, 'end': 1361, 'mesh': 'D018491'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1501, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +500,6794356,Tricuspid valve regurgitation and lithium carbonate toxicity in a newborn infant.,"A newborn with massive tricuspid regurgitation, atrial flutter, congestive heart failure, and a high serum lithium level is described.

Tumors, all papillomas, were induced in 3 rats (17%) with 0.25% RA and in one rat (10%) with 0.05% RA co-administration. RA alone did not induce hyperplastic changes in the forestomach. These findings indicate that RA acted as a co-carcinogen in the BHA forestomach carcinogenesis of the rat.","[{'text': 'carcinogenic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D063646'}, {'text': 'retinyl acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'forestomach carcinogenesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'butylated hydroxyanisole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'retinyl acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'butylated hydroxyanisole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 187, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'BHA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 213, 'end': 216, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'forestomach tumorigenesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 230, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'BHA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 346, 'end': 349, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'BHA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 483, 'end': 486, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'forestomach tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 675, 'end': 693, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'squamous cell papilloma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 695, 'end': 718, 'mesh': 'D010212'}, {'text': 'carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 723, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D002277'}, {'text': 'carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D002277'}, {'text': 'carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 800, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D002277'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'BHA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 862, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 867, 'end': 869, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'BHA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 990, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'epithelial hyperplasia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1002, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D017573'}, {'text': 'Tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'papillomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D010212'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1241, 'end': 1243, 'mesh': 'C009166'}, {'text': 'BHA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1276, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'D002083'}, {'text': 'forestomach carcinogenesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1280, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D013274'}]" +506,3115150,Ketanserin pretreatment reverses alfentanil-induced muscle rigidity.,"Systemic pretreatment with ketanserin, a relatively specific type-2 serotonin receptor antagonist, significantly attenuated the muscle rigidity produced in rats by the potent short-acting opiate agonist alfentanil. Following placement of subcutaneous electrodes in each animal's left gastrocnemius muscle, rigidity was assessed by analyzing root-mean-square electromyographic activity. Intraperitoneal ketanserin administration at doses of 0.63 and 2.5 mg/kg prevented the alfentanil-induced increase in electromyographic activity compared with animals pretreated with saline. Chlordiazepoxide at doses up to 10 mg/kg failed to significantly influence the rigidity produced by alfentanil. Despite the absence of rigidity, animals that received ketanserin (greater than 0.31 mg/kg i.p.) followed by alfentanil were motionless, flaccid, and less responsive to external stimuli than were animals receiving alfentanil alone. Rats that received ketanserin and alfentanil exhibited less rearing and exploratory behavior at the end of the 60-min recording period than did animals that received ketanserin alone. These results, in combination with previous work, suggest that muscle rigidity, a clinically relevant side-effect of parenteral narcotic administration, may be partly mediated via serotonergic pathways. Pretreatment with type-2 serotonin antagonists may be clinically useful in attenuating opiate-induced rigidity, although further studies will be necessary to assess the interaction of possibly enhanced CNS, cardiovascular, and respiratory depression.","[{'text': 'Ketanserin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D007650'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 52, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'ketanserin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D007650'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 137, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 197, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 272, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 375, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'ketanserin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 471, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D007650'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 542, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'Chlordiazepoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 646, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D002707'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 725, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 781, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'ketanserin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D007650'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 867, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 982, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'ketanserin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D007650'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'ketanserin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'D007650'}, {'text': 'muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1402, 'end': 1411, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1479, 'end': 1487, 'mesh': 'D009127'}]" +507,2917114,Glycopyrronium requirements for antagonism of the muscarinic side effects of edrophonium.,"We have compared, in 60 adult patients, the cardiovascular effects of glycopyrronium 5 micrograms kg-1 and 10 micrograms kg-1 given either simultaneously or 1 min before edrophonium 1 mg kg-1.

We investigated in this study the possible engagement of locus coeruleus of the pons in this phenomenon, using male Sprague-Dawley rats anesthetized with ketamine. Under proper control of respiration, body temperature and end-tidal CO2, intravenous administration of fentanyl (50 or 100 micrograms/kg) consistently promoted an increase in electromyographic activity recorded from the gastrocnemius and abdominal rectus muscles. Such an induced muscular rigidity by the narcotic agent was significantly antagonized or even reduced by prior electrolytic lesions of the locus coeruleus or pretreatment with the alpha-adrenoceptor blocker, prazosin. Microinjection of fentanyl (2.5 micrograms/50 nl) directly into this pontine nucleus, on the other hand, elicited discernible electromyographic excitation. It is speculated that the induction of muscular rigidity by fentanyl may involve the coerulospinal noradrenergic fibers to the spinal motoneurons.","[{'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'muscular rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 87, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'muscular rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 142, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 205, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 534, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'muscular rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 746, 'end': 763, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 938, 'end': 946, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 966, 'end': 974, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'muscular rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1143, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D005283'}]" +509,2339463,Cerebral sinus thrombosis as a potential hazard of antifibrinolytic treatment in menorrhagia.,"We describe a 42-year-old woman who developed superior sagittal and left transverse sinus thrombosis associated with prolonged epsilon-aminocaproic acid therapy for menorrhagia.

AIM: To examine whether paracetamol-induced acute liver failure increases long-term mortality. METHODS: We followed up all transplant-free survivors of paracetamol-induced acute liver injury, hospitalized in a Danish national referral centre during 1984-2004. We compared age-specific mortality rates from 1 year post-discharge through 2008 between those in whom the liver injury led to an acute liver failure and those in whom it did not. RESULTS: We included 641 patients. On average, age-specific mortality rates were slightly higher for the 101 patients whose paracetamol-induced liver injury had caused an acute liver failure (adjusted mortality rate ratio = 1.70, 95% CI 1.02-2.85), but the association was age-dependent, and no survivors of acute liver failure died of liver disease, whereas suicides were frequent in both groups. These observations speak against long-term effects of acute liver failure. More likely, the elevated mortality rate ratio resulted from incomplete adjustment for the greater prevalence of substance abuse among survivors of acute liver failure. CONCLUSIONS: Paracetamol-induced acute liver failure did not affect long-term mortality. Clinical follow-up may be justified by the cause of the liver failure, but not by the liver failure itself.","[{'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 53, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 153, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 173, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 234, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 254, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acute liver injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 382, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'liver injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 577, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 600, 'end': 619, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 774, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'liver injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 794, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 821, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 958, 'end': 977, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 986, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1102, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'substance abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1236, 'end': 1251, 'mesh': 'D019966'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'Paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1305, 'end': 1316, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1344, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1437, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'D017093'}, {'text': 'liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1467, 'end': 1480, 'mesh': 'D017093'}]" +515,20705401,Serotonin 6 receptor gene is associated with methamphetamine-induced psychosis in a Japanese population.,"BACKGROUND: Altered serotonergic neural transmission is hypothesized to be a susceptibility factor for psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia. The serotonin 6 (5-HT6) receptor is therapeutically targeted by several second generation antipsychotics, such as clozapine and olanzapine, and d-amphetamine-induced hyperactivity in rats is corrected with the use of a selective 5-HT6 receptor antagonist. In addition, the disrupted prepulse inhibition induced by d-amphetamine or phencyclidine was restored by 5-HT6 receptor antagonist in an animal study using rats. These animal models were considered to reflect the positive symptoms of schizophrenia, and the above evidence suggests that altered 5-HT6 receptors are involved in the pathophysiology of psychotic disorders. The symptoms of methamphetamine (METH)-induced psychosis are similar to those of paranoid type schizophrenia. Therefore, we conducted an analysis of the association of the 5-HT6 gene (HTR6) with METH-induced psychosis. METHOD: Using five tagging SNPs (rs6693503, rs1805054, rs4912138, rs3790757 and rs9659997), we conducted a genetic association analysis of case-control samples (197 METH-induced psychosis patients and 337 controls) in the Japanese population. The age and sex of the control subjects did not differ from those of the methamphetamine dependence patients. RESULTS: rs6693503 was associated with METH-induced psychosis patients in the allele/genotype-wise analysis. Moreover, this association remained significant after Bonferroni correction. In the haplotype-wise analysis, we detected an association between two markers (rs6693503 and rs1805054) and three markers (rs6693503, rs1805054 and rs4912138) in HTR6 and METH-induced psychosis patients, respectively. CONCLUSION: HTR6 may play an important role in the pathophysiology of METH-induced psychosis in the Japanese population.","[{'text': 'Serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 45, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'psychotic disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 208, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 255, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 268, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'clozapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 365, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D003024'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 379, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'd-amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 395, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 417, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 480, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'd-amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 565, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'phencyclidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 582, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D010622'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 741, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 801, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'psychotic disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 856, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 893, 'end': 908, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 910, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 933, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'paranoid type schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 958, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D012563'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1053, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1076, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1085, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1265, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1412, 'end': 1427, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1488, 'end': 1492, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1501, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1807, 'end': 1811, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1820, 'end': 1829, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1924, 'end': 1928, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1937, 'end': 1946, 'mesh': 'D011605'}]" +516,19105845,Effect of increasing intraperitoneal infusion rates on bupropion hydrochloride-induced seizures in mice.,"BACKGROUND: It is not known if there is a relationship between input rate and incidence of bupropion-induced seizures. This is important, since different controlled release formulations of bupropion release the active drug at different rates. METHODS: We investigated the effect of varying the intraperitoneal infusion rates of bupropion HCl 120 mg/kg, a known convulsive dose 50 (CD50), on the incidence and severity of bupropion-induced convulsions in the Swiss albino mice. A total of 69 mice, approximately 7 weeks of age, and weighing 21.0 to 29.1 g were randomly assigned to bupropion HCl 120 mg/kg treatment by intraperitoneal (IP) administration in 7 groups (9 to 10 animals per group). Bupropion HCl was infused through a surgically implanted IP dosing catheter with infusions in each group of 0 min, 15 min, 30 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min, and 240 min. The number, time of onset, duration and the intensity of the convulsions or absence of convulsions were recorded. RESULTS: The results showed that IP administration of bupropion HCl 120 mg/kg by bolus injection induced convulsions in 6 out of 10 mice (60% of convulsing mice) in group 1. Logistic regression analysis revealed that infusion time was significant (p = 0.0004; odds ratio = 0.974) and increasing the IP infusion time of bupropion HCl 120 mg/kg was associated with a 91% reduced odds of convulsions at infusion times of 15 to 90 min compared to bolus injection. Further increase in infusion time resulted in further reduction in the odds of convulsions to 99.8% reduction at 240 min. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, the demonstration of an inverse relationship between infusion time of a fixed and convulsive dose of bupropion and the risk of convulsions in a prospective study is novel.","[{'text': 'bupropion hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 87, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 196, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 294, 'end': 303, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'bupropion HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 466, 'end': 476, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 526, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 544, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupropion HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 686, 'end': 699, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'Bupropion HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 800, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1056, 'end': 1067, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupropion HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1137, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1188, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupropion HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1402, 'end': 1415, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1468, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1622, 'end': 1633, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1774, 'end': 1784, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1793, 'end': 1802, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1819, 'end': 1830, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +517,18657397,Detailed spectral profile analysis of penicillin-induced epileptiform activity in anesthetized rats.,"Penicillin model is a widely used experimental model for epilepsy research. In the present study we aimed to portray a detailed spectral analysis of penicillin-induced epileptiform activity in comparison with basal brain activity in anesthetized Wistar rats. Male Wistar rats were anesthetized with i.p. urethane and connected to an electrocorticogram setup. After a short period of basal activity recording, epileptic focus was induced by injecting 400IU/2 microl penicillin-G potassium into the left lateral ventricle while the cortical activity was continuously recorded. Basal activity, latent period and the penicillin-induced epileptiform activity periods were then analyzed using both conventional methods and spectral analysis. Spectral analyses were conducted by dividing the whole spectrum into different frequency bands including delta, theta (slow and fast), alpha-sigma, beta (1 and 2) and gamma (1 and 2) bands. Our results show that the most affected frequency bands were delta, theta, beta-2 and gamma-2 bands during the epileptiform activity and there were marked differences in terms of spectral densities between three investigated episodes (basal activity, latent period and epileptiform activity). Our results may help to analyze novel data obtained using similar experimental models and the simple analysis method described here can be used in similar studies to investigate the basic neuronal mechanism of this or other types of experimental epilepsies.","[{'text': 'penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'epileptiform activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'Penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 250, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'epileptiform activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 269, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'urethane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 405, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D014520'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 510, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'penicillin-G potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 566, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 714, 'end': 724, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'epileptiform activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 733, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptiform activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptiform activity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1317, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epilepsies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1566, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D004827'}]" +518,18363626,High dose dexmedetomidine as the sole sedative for pediatric MRI.,"OBJECTIVE: This large-scale retrospective review evaluates the sedation profile of dexmedetomidine. AIM: To determine the hemodynamic responses, efficacy and adverse events associated with the use of high dose dexmedetomidine as the sole sedative for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies. BACKGROUND: Dexmedetomidine has been used at our institution since 2005 to provide sedation for pediatric radiological imaging studies. Over time, an effective protocol utilizing high dose dexmedetomidine as the sole sedative agent has evolved. METHODS/MATERIALS: As part of the ongoing Quality Assurance process, data on all sedations are reviewed monthly and protocols modified as needed. Data were analyzed from all 747 consecutive patients who received dexmedetomidine for MRI sedation from April 2005 to April 2007. RESULTS: Since 2005, the 10-min loading dose of our dexmedetomidine protocol increased from 2 to 3 microg.kg(-1), and the infusion rate increased from 1 to 1.5 to 2 microg.kg(-1).h(-1). The current sedation protocol progressively increased the rate of successful sedation (able to complete the imaging study) when using dexmedetomidine alone from 91.8% to 97.6% (P = 0.009), reducing the requirement for adjuvant pentobarbital in the event of sedation failure with dexmedetomidine alone and decreased the mean recovery time by 10 min (P < 0.001). Although dexmedetomidine sedation was associated with a 16% incidence of bradycardia, all concomitant mean arterial blood pressures were within 20% of age-adjusted normal range and oxygen saturations were 95% or higher. CONCLUSION: Dexmedetomidine in high doses provides adequate sedation for pediatric MRI studies. While use of high dose dexmedetomidine is associated with decreases in heart rate and blood pressure outside the established 'awake' norms, this deviation is generally within 20% of norms, and is not associated with adverse sequelae. Dexmedetomidine is useful as the sole sedative for pediatric MRI.","[{'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 276, 'end': 291, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'Dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 371, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 816, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 932, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1500, 'end': 1511, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1608, 'end': 1614, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'Dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1659, 'end': 1674, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1766, 'end': 1781, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'Dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1977, 'end': 1992, 'mesh': 'D020927'}]" +519,16192988,Methamphetamine causes alterations in the MAP kinase-related pathways in the brains of mice that display increased aggressiveness.,"Aggressive behaviors have been reported in patients who suffer from some psychiatric disorders, and are common in methamphetamine (METH) abusers. Herein, we report that multiple (but not single) injections of METH significantly increased aggressiveness in male CD-1 mice. This increase in aggressiveness was not secondary to METH-induced hyperactivity. Analysis of protein expression using antibody microarrays and Western blotting revealed differential changes in MAP kinase-related pathways after multiple and single METH injections. There were statistically significant (p<0.05) decreases in MEK1, Erk2p, GSK3alpha, 14-3-3e, and MEK7 in the striata of mice after multiple injections of METH. MEK1 was significantly decreased also after a single injection of METH, but to a much lesser degree than after multiple injections of METH. In the frontal cortex, there was a statistically significant decrease in GSK3alpha after multiple (but not single) injections of METH. These findings suggest that alterations in MAP kinase-related pathways in the prefronto-striatal circuitries might be involved in the manifestation of aggressive behaviors in mice.","[{'text': 'Methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'aggressiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 115, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'Aggressive behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 131, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'psychiatric disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 204, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 245, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 262, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 340, 'end': 344, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'aggressiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 369, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'aggressiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 420, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 469, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 650, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 824, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 892, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 960, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'aggressive behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1272, 'mesh': 'D001523'}]" +520,16157917,Lamotrigine associated with exacerbation or de novo myoclonus in idiopathic generalized epilepsies.,"Five patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGE) treated with lamotrigine (LTG) experienced exacerbation or de novo appearance of myoclonic jerks (MJ).

METHODS: This was a prospective, single-intervention study of consenting adult patients undergoing procedural sedation with propofol between December 28, 2002, and October 31, 2003. BIS monitoring was initiated starting 3 minutes before the procedure and continuing until the patient had regained baseline mental status. At 1-minute intervals during the procedural sedation, until the patient regained baseline mental status at the end of the procedure, a word from a standardized list was read aloud, and the patient was asked to immediately repeat the word to the investigator. The BIS score at the time the word was read and the patient's ability to repeat the word were recorded. After the procedure, the patient was asked to state all of the words from the list that he or she could recall, and to identify the last word recalled from prior to the start of the procedure and the first word recalled from after the procedure was completed. RESULTS: Seventy-five consenting patients were enrolled; one patient was excluded from data analysis for a protocol violation. No serious adverse events were noted during the procedural sedations. The mean (+/-standard deviation) time of data collection was 16.4 minutes (+/-7.1; range 5 to 34 minutes). The mean initial (preprocedure) BIS score was 97.1 (+/-2.3; range 92 to 99). The mean lowest BIS score occurring during these procedural sedations was 66.9 (+/-14.4; range 33 to 91). The mean lowest BIS score corresponding to the ability of the patient to immediately repeat words read from the list was 77.1 (95% CI = 74.3 to 80.0). The mean highest BIS score corresponding to the inability to repeat words was 81.5 (95% CI = 78.1 to 84.8). The mean BIS score corresponding to the last word recalled from prior to the initiation of the sedation was 96.7 (+/-2.4; range 84 to 98). The mean BIS score corresponding to the first word recalled after the procedure was completed was 91.2 (95% CI = 88.1 to 94.3). All patients recalled at least one word that had been read to them during the protocol. The mean lowest BIS score for any recalled word was 91.5 (+/-11.1; range 79 to 98), and no words were recalled when the corresponding BIS score was less than 90. CONCLUSIONS: There is a range of BIS scores during which sedated patients are able to repeat words read to them but are not able to subsequently recall these words. Furthermore, patients had no recall of words repeated prior to procedural sedation in BIS ranges associated with recall after procedural sedation, suggestive of retrograde amnesia.","[{'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 43, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 220, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'inability to repeat words', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1967, 'end': 1992, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'retrograde amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2870, 'end': 2888, 'mesh': 'D000648'}]" +523,15867025,Assessment of perinatal hepatitis B and rubella prevention in New Hampshire delivery hospitals.,"OBJECTIVE: To evaluate current performance on recommended perinatal hepatitis B and rubella prevention practices in New Hampshire. METHODS: Data were extracted from 2021 paired mother-infant records for the year 2000 birth cohort in New Hampshire's 25 delivery hospitals. Assessment was done on the following: prenatal screening for hepatitis B and rubella, administration of the hepatitis B vaccine birth dose to all infants, administration of hepatitis B immune globulin to infants who were born to hepatitis B surface antigen-positive mothers, rubella immunity, and administration of in-hospital postpartum rubella vaccine to rubella nonimmune women. RESULTS: Prenatal screening rates for hepatitis B (98.8%) and rubella (99.4%) were high. Hepatitis B vaccine birth dose was administered to 76.2% of all infants. All infants who were born to hepatitis B surface antigen-positive mothers also received hepatitis B immune globulin. Multivariate logistic regression showed that the month of delivery and infant birth weight were independent predictors of hepatitis B vaccination. The proportion of infants who were vaccinated in January and February 2000 (48.5% and 67.5%, respectively) was less than any other months, whereas the proportion who were vaccinated in December 2000 (88.2%) was the highest. Women who were born between 1971 and 1975 had the highest rate of rubella nonimmunity (9.5%). In-hospital postpartum rubella vaccine administration was documented for 75.6% of nonimmune women. CONCLUSION: This study documents good compliance in New Hampshire's birthing hospitals with national guidelines for perinatal hepatitis B and rubella prevention and highlights potential areas for improvement.","[{'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 24, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 164, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 429, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 445, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 476, 'end': 487, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 541, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B surface antigen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 643, 'end': 650, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 706, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 725, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 788, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 812, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'Hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 839, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B surface antigen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 941, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1000, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1162, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1466, 'end': 1473, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1517, 'end': 1524, 'mesh': 'D012409'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1719, 'end': 1730, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'rubella', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1735, 'end': 1742, 'mesh': 'D012409'}]" +524,14975762,Expression of p300 protects cardiac myocytes from apoptosis in vivo.,"Doxorubicin is an anti-tumor agent that represses cardiac-specific gene expression and induces myocardial cell apoptosis. Doxorubicin depletes cardiac p300, a transcriptional coactivator that is required for the maintenance of the differentiated phenotype of cardiac myocytes. However, the role of p300 in protection against doxorubicin-induced apoptosis is unknown. Transgenic mice overexpressing p300 in the heart and wild-type mice were subjected to doxorubicin treatment. Compared with wild-type mice, transgenic mice exhibited higher survival rate as well as more preserved left ventricular function and cardiac expression of alpha-sarcomeric actin. Doxorubicin induced myocardial cell apoptosis in wild-type mice but not in transgenic mice. Expression of p300 increased the cardiac level of bcl-2 and mdm-2, but not that of p53 or other members of the bcl-2 family. These findings demonstrate that overexpression of p300 protects cardiac myocytes from doxorubicin-induced apoptosis and reduces the extent of acute heart failure in adult mice in vivo.","[{'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 69, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 92, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 191, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 522, 'end': 533, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 724, 'end': 735, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1102, 'mesh': 'D006333'}]" +525,14736955,Mitochondrial DNA and its respiratory chain products are defective in doxorubicin nephrosis.,"BACKGROUND: Doxorubicin induces a self-perpetuating nephropathy characterized by early glomerular and late-onset tubular lesions in rats. We investigated the potential role of mitochondrial injury in the onset of these lesions. METHODS: Rats were treated with intravenous doxorubicin (1 mg kg(-1) week(-1)) for 7 weeks and were sacrificed either 1 week ('short-term') or 30 weeks ('long-term') following the last dose. Additional rats received a single dose either 6 days or 2 h prior to euthanasia. All rats were killed at 48 weeks of age. Glomerular and tubular injury was monitored and correlated to the activity or expression of respiratory chain components. Finally, we quantified both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) as well as superoxide production and the 4834 base pair 'common' mtDNA deletion. RESULTS: The 'long-term' group had significant glomerular and tubular lesions, depressed activities of mtDNA-encoded NADH dehydrogenase and cytochrome-c oxidase (COX) and increased citrate synthase activity. In addition, expression of the mtDNA-encoded COX subunit I was reduced and mtDNA levels were decreased. In 'short-term' rats, there were fewer tubular lesions, but similar numbers of glomerular lesions activity. Among all animals, glomerular and tubular injury were inversely correlated with mtDNA levels, mtDNA-encoded respiratory chain activities and with the expression of the mtDNA-encoded respiratory chain subunit COX-I. Injury was positively correlated with superoxide production and the activities of nucleus-encoded mitochondrial or cytoplasmic enzymes. Kidneys from the 'long-term' group showed more mtDNA deletions than in 'short-term' animals and these were not observed in the other groups. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest an important role for quantitative and qualitative mtDNA alterations through the reduction of mtDNA-encoded respiratory chain function and induction of superoxide in doxorubicin-induced renal lesions.","[{'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 82, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 105, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 145, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerular and late-onset tubular lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 269, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 365, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Glomerular and tubular injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 634, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'glomerular and tubular lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 950, 'end': 980, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1084, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'C102006'}, {'text': 'tubular lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerular lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1312, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerular and tubular injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1371, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1576, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2002, 'end': 2012, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2016, 'end': 2027, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'renal lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2036, 'end': 2049, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +526,11573852,Amphotericin B-induced seizures in a patient with AIDS.,"OBJECTIVE: To report a case of multiple episodes of seizure activity in an AIDS patent following amphotericin B infusion. CASE SUMMARY: A 46-year-old African-American man experienced recurrent grand mal seizures during intravenous infusion of amphotericin B, then petit mal seizures as the infusion was stopped and the drug concentrations decreased with time. The patients concurrent medications included didanosine, hydroxyzine, promethazine, hydrocortisone, and prochlorperazine. Despite administration of phenytoin and lorazepam, the seizures persisted and occurred only during amphotercin B administration. DISCUSSION: AIDS and cryptococcal meningitis, both of which the patient had, can potentially cause seizures. The patient had a history of alcohol abuse; alcohol intake as well as withdrawal can also cause seizures. Didanosine also has a potential for inducing seizures. However, these other potential causes of seizure were ruled out. The time course of events suggested that amphotericin B was the cause of the seizures in this AIDS patient. CONCLUSIONS: Amphotericin B seems to be the probable cause of the seizures.

Tobramycin serum concentrations (peak and trough) were measured by enzyme multiplied immunoassay. The renal and auditory functions of the patients were monitored before, during and immediately after treatment. RESULTS: The two groups were comparable with respect to sex, age, body weight and renal function. No statistically significant differences were found in mean daily dose, duration of treatment, or cumulative dose. Trough concentrations were < 2 g/ml in the two groups (100%). Peak concentrations were > 6 microg/ml in 100% of the OD group and in 67% of the TD group (P< 0.01). Mean peak concentrations were markedly different: 11.00+/-2.89 microg/ml in OD vs. 6.53+/-1.45 microg/ml in TD (P< 0.01). The pharmacokinetics parameters were: Ke, (0.15+/-0.03/h in OD vs. 0.24+/-0.06/h in TD), t1/2, (4.95+/-1.41 h in OD vs. 3.07+/-0.71 h in TD), Vd (0.35+/-0.11 l/kg in OD vs. 0.33+/-0.09 l/kg in TD), Cl (0.86+/-0.29 ml/min/kg in OD vs. 1.28+/-0.33 ml/min/kg in TD). Increased serum creatinine was observed in 73% of patients in OD versus 57% of patients in TD, without evidence of nephrotoxicity. In TD group, three patients developed decreased auditory function, of which one presented with an auditory loss of -30 dB, whereas in the OD group only one patient presented decreased auditory function. CONCLUSION: This small study suggests that a once-daily dosing regimen of tobramycin is at least as effective as and is no more and possibly less toxic than the twice-daily regimen. Using a single-dose therapy, peak concentration determination is not necessary, only trough samples should be monitored to ensure levels below 2 microg/ml.","[{'text': 'tobramycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D014031'}, {'text': 'tobramicyn', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 175, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D014031'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 227, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'tobramycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 300, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D014031'}, {'text': 'tobramycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D014031'}, {'text': 'Tobramycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 490, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D014031'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1478, 'end': 1488, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1577, 'end': 1591, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'decreased auditory function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1658, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'auditory loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1691, 'end': 1704, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'decreased auditory function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1767, 'end': 1794, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'tobramycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1870, 'end': 1880, 'mesh': 'D014031'}]" +528,9848575,Chronic effects of a novel synthetic anthracycline derivative (SM-5887) on normal heart and doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy in beagle dogs.,"This study was designed to investigate the chronic cardiotoxic potential of SM-5887 and a possible deteriorating effect of SM-5887 on low-grade cardiotoxicity pre-induced by doxorubicin in beagle dogs. In the chronic treatment, beagle dogs of each sex were given intravenously once every 3 weeks, either a sublethal dose of doxorubicin (1.5 mg/kg) or SM-5887 (2.5 mg/kg). The experiment was terminated 3 weeks after the ninth dosing. Animals which received over six courses of doxorubicin demonstrated the electrocardiogram (ECG) changes, decrease of blood pressure and high-grade histopathological cardiomyopathy, while animals which were terminally sacrificed after the SM-5887 administration did not show any changes in ECG, blood pressure and histopathological examinations. To examine a possibly deteriorating cardiotoxic effect of SM-5887, low-grade cardiomyopathy was induced in dogs by four courses of doxorubicin (1.5 mg/kg). Nine weeks after pre-treatment, dogs were given four courses of either doxorubicin (1.5 mg/kg) or SM-5887 (2.5 mg/kg) once every 3 weeks. The low-grade cardiotoxic changes were enhanced by the additional doxorubicin treatment. On the contrary, the SM-5887 treatment did not progress the grade of cardiomyopathy. In conclusion, SM-5887 does not have any potential of chronic cardiotoxicity and deteriorating effect on doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in dogs.","[{'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 112, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 194, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 219, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 266, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 287, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 317, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 467, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 620, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 742, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 815, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 958, 'end': 969, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 980, 'end': 987, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 999, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1064, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1241, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1326, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1374, 'end': 1388, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'SM-5887', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1412, 'mesh': 'C055866'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1495, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1515, 'end': 1529, 'mesh': 'D066126'}]" +529,9321531,Posteroventral medial pallidotomy in advanced Parkinson's disease.,"BACKGROUND: Posteroventral medial pallidotomy sometimes produces striking improvement in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, but the studies to date have involved small numbers of patients and short-term follow-up. METHODS: Forty patients with Parkinson's disease underwent serial, detailed assessments both after drug withdrawal (""off"" period) and while taking their optimal medical regimens (""on"" period). All patients were examined preoperatively and 39 were examined at six months; 27 of the patients were also examined at one year, and 11 at two years. RESULTS: The percent improvements at six months were as follows: off-period score for overall motor function, 28 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 19 to 38 percent), with most of the improvement in the contralateral limbs; off-period score for activities of daily living, 29 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 19 to 39 percent); on-period score for contralateral dyskinesias, 82 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 72 to 91 percent); and on-period score for ipsilateral dyskinesias, 44 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 29 to 59 percent). The improvements in dyskinesias and the total scores for off-period parkinsonism, contralateral bradykinesia, and rigidity were sustained in the 11 patients examined at two years. The improvement in ipsilateral dyskinesias was lost after one year, and the improvements in postural stability and gait lasted only three to six months. Approximately half the patients who had been dependent on assistance in activities of daily living in the off period before surgery became independent after surgery. The complications of surgery were generally well tolerated, and there were no significant changes in the use of medication. CONCLUSIONS: In late-stage Parkinson's disease, pallidotomy significantly reduces levodopa-induced dyskinesias and off-period disability. Much of the benefit is sustained at two years, although some improvements, such as those on the ipsilateral side and in axial symptoms, wane within the first year. The on-period symptoms that are resistant to dopaminergic therapy do not respond to pallidotomy.","[{'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 46, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 179, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1020, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1121, 'end': 1132, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1217, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1265, 'end': 1277, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'bradykinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D018476'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1311, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1408, 'end': 1419, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1847, 'end': 1866, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1902, 'end': 1910, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1919, 'end': 1930, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +530,9305828,Neuropeptide-Y immunoreactivity in the pilocarpine model of temporal lobe epilepsy.,"Neuropeptide-Y (NPY) is expressed by granule cells and mossy fibres of the hippocampal dentate gyrus during experimental temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). This expression may represent an endogenous damping mechanism since NPY has been shown to block seizure-like events following high-frequency stimulation in hippocampal slices. The pilocarpine (PILO) model of epilepsy is characterized by an acute period of status epilepticus followed by spontaneous recurrent seizures and related brain damage. We report peroxidase-antiperoxidase immunostaining for NPY in several brain regions in this model. PILO-injected animals exhibited NPY immunoreactivity in the region of the mossy fibre terminals, in the dentate gyrus inner molecular layer and, in a few cases, within presumed granule cells. NPY immunoreactivity was also dramatically changed in the entorhinal cortex, amygdala and sensorimotor areas. In addition, PILO injected animals exhibited a reduction in the number of NPY-immunoreactive interneurons compared with controls. The results demonstrate that changes in NPY expression, including expression in the granule cells and mossy fibres and the loss of vulnerable NPY neurons, are present in the PILO model of TLE. However, the significance of this changed synthesis of NPY remains to be determined.","[{'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'temporal lobe epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 60, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D004833'}, {'text': 'temporal lobe epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D004833'}, {'text': 'TLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 229, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D004833'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 331, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'PILO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 428, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 443, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 491, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 544, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'brain damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 565, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'PILO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 678, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'PILO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 993, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'PILO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1284, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'TLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'D004833'}]" +531,9041081,Effect of myopic excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy on the electrophysiologic function of the retina and optic nerve.,"PURPOSE: To assess by electrophysiologic testing the effect of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) on the retina and optic nerve.

The aim of this study was to determine whether myocardial contrast echocardiography performed with a stable solution of sonicated albumin could detect regions of myocardial underperfusion resulting from various degrees of coronary stenosis. The perfusion defect produced in 16 open chest dogs was compared with the anatomic area at risk measured by the postmortem dual-perfusion technique and with thallium-201 single-photon emission tomography (SPECT). During a transient (20-s) coronary occlusion, a perfusion defect was observed with contrast echocardiography in 14 of the 15 dogs in which the occlusion was produced. The perfusion defect correlated significantly with the anatomic area at risk (r = 0.74; p less than 0.002). During dipyridamole-induced hyperemia, 12 of the 16 dogs with a partial coronary stenosis had a visible area of hypoperfusion by contrast echocardiography. The four dogs without a perfusion defect had a stenosis that resulted in a mild (0% to 50%) reduction in dipyridamole-induced hyperemia. The size of the perfusion defect during stenosis correlated significantly with the anatomic area at risk (r = 0.61; p = 0.02). Thallium-201 SPECT demonstrated a perfusion defect in all 14 dogs analyzed during dipyridamole-induced hyperemia; the size of the perfusion defect correlated with the anatomic area at risk (r = 0.58; p less than 0.03) and with the perfusion defect by contrast echocardiography (r = 0.58; p less than 0.03). Thus, myocardial contrast echocardiography can be used to visualize and quantitate the amount of jeopardized myocardium during moderate to severe degrees of coronary stenosis. The results obtained show a correlation with the anatomic area at risk similar to that obtained with thallium-201 SPECT.","[{'text': 'coronary stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 100, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'thallium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 136, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D013793'}, {'text': 'coronary occlusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 345, 'end': 363, 'mesh': 'D054059'}, {'text': 'coronary stenoses', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 380, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'hyperemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 417, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D006940'}, {'text': 'coronary stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 662, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'thallium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 846, 'mesh': 'D013793'}, {'text': 'coronary occlusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D054059'}, {'text': 'dipyridamole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1188, 'mesh': 'D004176'}, {'text': 'hyperemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D006940'}, {'text': 'coronary stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1241, 'end': 1258, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'dipyridamole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1442, 'mesh': 'D004176'}, {'text': 'hyperemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1460, 'mesh': 'D006940'}, {'text': 'Thallium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1589, 'end': 1597, 'mesh': 'D013793'}, {'text': 'dipyridamole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1671, 'end': 1683, 'mesh': 'D004176'}, {'text': 'hyperemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1692, 'end': 1701, 'mesh': 'D006940'}, {'text': 'coronary stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2053, 'end': 2070, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'thallium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2173, 'end': 2181, 'mesh': 'D013793'}]" +539,1300436,Potential deleterious effect of furosemide in radiocontrast nephropathy.,"The purpose of the study was to determine the efficacy of furosemide in addition to intravenous fluids in the prevention of radiocontrast nephropathy. 18 patients, referred to a radiocontrast study, considered at risk because of preexisting renal insufficiency, were enrolled in a prospective, randomized, controlled trial, performed at the secondary care center of a 1,100-bed private university hospital.

CASE SUMMARY: A 41-year-old Chinese man with a history of hyperthyroidism had been treated with carbimazole and propranolol for the past 5 years. He received a 10-day course of bupropion as an aid for smoking cessation 10 weeks prior to presentation. He developed acute liver failure with rapid deterioration of renal function. Liver biopsy showed evidence of nonspecific drug-induced acute liver injury. His condition was further complicated by sepsis and coagulopathy. Death resulted 19 days after the onset of symptoms. The likelihood that bupropion induced hepatotoxicity in our patient was possible, based on the Naranjo probability scale. DISCUSSION: Although there is increasing evidence of hepatotoxicity induced by bupropion, this is the first case of fatality that could have resulted from acute liver failure in a patient receiving bupropion while on concomitant treatment with carbimazole. CONCLUSIONS: Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of acute liver insult induced by bupropion given concurrently with other hepatotoxic drugs.","[{'text': 'Acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'carbimazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D002231'}, {'text': 'liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 108, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D017093'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 165, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'carbimazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D002231'}, {'text': 'hyperthyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 250, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D006980'}, {'text': 'carbimazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D002231'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 315, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 369, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'drug-induced acute liver injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 564, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'sepsis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 638, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D018805'}, {'text': 'coagulopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 649, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D001778'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 753, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 890, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 916, 'end': 925, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 992, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'carbimazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'D002231'}, {'text': 'acute liver insult', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1174, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'bupropion', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'D016642'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D056486'}]" +545,19370593,Long term hormone therapy for perimenopausal and postmenopausal women.,"BACKGROUND: Hormone therapy (HT) is widely used for controlling menopausal symptoms and has also been used for the management and prevention of cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and dementia in older women. This is an updated version of the original Cochrane review first published in 2005. OBJECTIVES: To assess the effect of long-term HT on mortality, cardiovascular outcomes, cancer, gallbladder disease, cognition, fractures and quality of life. SEARCH STRATEGY: We searched the following databases to November 2007: Trials Register of the Cochrane Menstrual Disorders and Subfertility Group, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Biological Abstracts. Also relevant non-indexed journals and conference abstracts. SELECTION CRITERIA: Randomised double-blind trials of HT versus placebo, taken for at least one year by perimenopausal or postmenopausal women. HT included oestrogens, with or without progestogens, via oral, transdermal, subcutaneous or transnasal routes. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Two authors independently assessed trial quality and extracted data. MAIN RESULTS: Nineteen trials involving 41,904 women were included. In relatively healthy women, combined continuous HT significantly increased the risk of venous thrombo-embolism or coronary event (after one year's use), stroke (after three years), breast cancer and gallbladder disease. Long-term oestrogen-only HT significantly increased the risk of venous thrombo-embolism, stroke and gallbladder disease (after one to two years, three years and seven years' use respectively), but did not significantly increase the risk of breast cancer. The only statistically significant benefits of HT were a decreased incidence of fractures and (for combined HT) colon cancer, with long-term use. Among women aged over 65 who were relatively healthy (i.e. generally fit, without overt disease) and taking continuous combined HT, there was a statistically significant increase in the incidence of dementia. Among women with cardiovascular disease, long-term use of combined continuous HT significantly increased the risk of venous thrombo-embolism.One trial analysed subgroups of 2839 relatively healthy 50 to 59 year old women taking combined continuous HT and 1637 taking oestrogen-only HT, versus similar-sized placebo groups. The only significantly increased risk reported was for venous thrombo-embolism in women taking combined continuous HT: their absolute risk remained low, at less than 1/500. However, this study was not powered to detect differences between groups of younger women. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: HT is not indicated for the routine management of chronic disease. We need more evidence on the safety of HT for menopausal symptom control, though short-term use appears to be relatively safe for healthy younger women.","[{'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 215, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'osteoporosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 239, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D010024'}, {'text': 'dementia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 256, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D003704'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 453, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'gallbladder disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 461, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D005705'}, {'text': 'fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 493, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'Menstrual Disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 627, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D008599'}, {'text': 'oestrogens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 975, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'progestogens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1003, 'end': 1015, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': 'venous thrombo-embolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1330, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1396, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1424, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'gallbladder disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1442, 'end': 1461, 'mesh': 'D005705'}, {'text': 'oestrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1473, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'venous thrombo-embolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1527, 'end': 1550, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1552, 'end': 1558, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'gallbladder disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1582, 'mesh': 'D005705'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1703, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1798, 'end': 1807, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'colon cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1830, 'end': 1842, 'mesh': 'D003110'}, {'text': 'dementia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2063, 'end': 2071, 'mesh': 'D003704'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2090, 'end': 2112, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'venous thrombo-embolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2190, 'end': 2213, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'oestrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2340, 'end': 2349, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'venous thrombo-embolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2451, 'end': 2474, 'mesh': 'D054556'}]" +546,17019386,Passage of mannitol into the brain around gliomas: a potential cause of rebound phenomenon. A study on 21 patients.,"AIM: Widespread use of mannitol to reduce brain edema and lower elevated ICP in brain tumor patients continues to be afflicted by the so-called rebound phenomenon. Leakage of mannitol into the brain parenchyma through an altered BBB and secondary reversal of osmotic gradient is considered the major cause of rebound . This has only been demonstrated experimentally in animals. As a contribution to this issue we decided to research the possible passage of mannitol into the brain after administration to 21 brain tumor patients. METHODS: Mannitol (18% solution; 1 g/kg) was administered as a bolus to patients (ten had malignant glioma, seven brain metastases and four meningioma) about 30 minutes before craniotomy. During resection, a sample of the surrounding edematous white matter was taken at the same time as a 10 ml venous blood sample. Mannitol concentrations were measured in plasma and white matter by a modified version of the enzyme assay of Blonquist et al. RESULTS: In most glioma patients, mannitol concentrations in white matter were 2 to 6 times higher than in plasma (mean 3.5 times). In meningioma and metastases patients plasma concentrations of mannitol were higher than white matter concentrations except in three cases with infiltration by neoplastic cells. CONCLUSIONS: The results of our study show that even after a single bolus, mannitol may leak through the altered BBB near gliomas, reversing the initial plasma-to-blood osmotic gradient, aggravating peritumoral edema and promoting rebound of ICP.","[{'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'gliomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D005910'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'brain edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'elevated ICP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D019586'}, {'text': 'brain tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 196, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D001932'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 291, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 573, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'brain tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 624, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D001932'}, {'text': 'Mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 655, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'malignant glioma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 736, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D005910'}, {'text': 'metastases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 766, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D009362'}, {'text': 'meningioma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 786, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D008579'}, {'text': 'edematous', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 880, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'Mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 970, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'glioma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1112, 'mesh': 'D005910'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1123, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'meningioma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1234, 'mesh': 'D008579'}, {'text': 'metastases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1239, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D009362'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1284, 'end': 1292, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'gliomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1521, 'end': 1528, 'mesh': 'D005910'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1610, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D004487'}]" +547,12452237,Can lidocaine reduce succinylcholine induced postoperative myalgia?,"This study was undertaken to determine the effect of lidocaine pretreatment on reduction of succinylcholine-induced myalgia in patients undergoing general anesthesia for gynecological surgery. One hundred and thirty-five patients were assigned to one of three groups in a prospective, double blind, randomized manner. Group PS, the control group, received normal saline and succinylcholine 1.5 mg x kg(-1); Group LS, lidocaine 1.5 mg x kg(-1) and succinylcholine 1.5 mg x kg(-1); Group PR, normal saline and rocuronium 0.6 mg x kg(-1). Morphine 0.1 mg x kg(-1) iv was given for premedication and all patients were monitored with a noninvasive blood pressure monitor, ECG and pulse oximetry. Anesthesia was induced with 5 mg.kg(-1) thiopental iv. followed by succinylcholine (Group PS, LS) or rocuronium (Group PR) for tracheal intubation. Following administration of these agents, the presence, and degree of fasciculation were assessed visually on a four point scale by one investigator who was blinded to the drug administered. The blood pressure and heart rate of each patient were monitored on nine occasions. Twenty-four hours later, any myalgia experienced was assessed according to a structured questionaire and graded by a four point scale by one investigator blinded to the intraoperative management. The results indicate that muscle fasciculation was not found in Group PR while the patients in Group LS had a lower incidence of muscle fasciculation than those in Group PS (p < 0.001). At 24 h, the incidence of myalgia was higher in Group PS than in Group LS and PR (p < 0.05). A correlation was not found between the incidence of myalgia and the occurrence of muscle fasciculation. The changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate were not significant among the three groups. In conclusion, where succinylcholine is used, lidocaine is proven to be the useful pretreatment agent for the reduction of postoperative myalgia.","[{'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 4, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'postoperative myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 121, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 184, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 442, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 485, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 515, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'Morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 612, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 826, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 860, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 977, 'end': 990, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1404, 'end': 1424, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1527, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1590, 'end': 1597, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1710, 'end': 1717, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1740, 'end': 1760, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1896, 'end': 1911, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1921, 'end': 1930, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'postoperative myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1998, 'end': 2019, 'mesh': 'D010149'}]" +548,9564988,Open-label assessment of levofloxacin for the treatment of acute bacterial sinusitis in adults.,"PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of levofloxacin (500 mg orally once daily for 10 to 14 days) in treating adult outpatients with acute bacterial sinusitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 329 patients enrolled in the study at 24 centers. All patients had a pre-therapy Gram's stain and culture of sinus exudate obtained by antral puncture or nasal endoscopy. Clinical response was assessed on the basis of signs and symptoms and sinus radiograph or computed tomography results. Microbiologic cure rates were determined on the basis of presumed plus documented eradication of the pre-therapy pathogen(s). RESULTS: The most common pathogens were Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, and Moraxella catarrhalis. Of 300 clinically evaluable patients, 175 (58%) were cured and 90 (30%) were improved at the post-therapy evaluation, resulting in a clinical success rate of 88%. Thirty-five patients (12%) clinically failed treatment. The microbiologic eradication rate (presumed plus documented) among 138 microbiologically evaluable patients was 92%. Microbiologic eradication rates (presumed plus documented) of the most common pathogens ranged from 93% (M. catarrhalis) to 100% (S. pneumoniae) at the post-therapy visit. All but one of the 265 patients who were cured or improved at post-therapy returned for a long-term follow-up visit; 243 (92%) remained well 4 to 6 weeks after therapy; and 21 (8%) had a relapse of symptoms. Adverse events considered to be related to levofloxacin administration were reported by 29 patients (9%). The most common drug-related adverse events were diarrhea, flatulence, and nausea; most adverse events were mild to moderate in severity. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that levofloxacin 500 mg once daily is an effective and safe treatment for acute bacterial sinusitis.","[{'text': 'levofloxacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 25, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D064704'}, {'text': 'sinusitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 75, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D012852'}, {'text': 'levofloxacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 144, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D064704'}, {'text': 'sinusitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 253, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D012852'}, {'text': 'levofloxacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1613, 'end': 1625, 'mesh': 'D064704'}, {'text': 'diarrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1725, 'end': 1733, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'flatulence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1735, 'end': 1745, 'mesh': 'D005414'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1751, 'end': 1757, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'levofloxacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1866, 'end': 1878, 'mesh': 'D064704'}, {'text': 'sinusitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1952, 'end': 1961, 'mesh': 'D012852'}]" +549,7596955,Clinical evaluation on combined administration of oral prostacyclin analogue beraprost and phosphodiesterase inhibitor cilostazol.,"Among various oral antiplatelets, a combination of a novel prostacyclin analogue beraprost (BPT) and a potent phosphodiesterase inhibitor cilostazol (CLZ) may result in untoward clinical effects due to possible synergistic elevation of intracellular cAMP (cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate). Thereby, a clinical study of the combined administration of the two agents was attempted. Twelve healthy volunteers were assigned to take BPT/CLZ in the following schedule; BPT: 40 micrograms at day 1 and 120 micrograms t.i.d. from day 7 to 14, CLZ: 200 mg t.i.d. from day 3 to 14. At various time intervals, physical examination and blood collection for ex vivo platelet aggregation and determination of intraplatelet cAMP were performed. Throughout the observation period, no significant alteration in vital signs was observed. Seven out of 12 subjects experienced headache of a short duration accompanying facial flush in one and nausea in one, especially after ingestion of CLZ. All of these symptoms, probably caused by the vasodilating effect of the two agents, were of mild degree and no special treatment was required. Intraplatelet cAMP content was gradually but significantly increased to 9.84 +/- 4.59 pmol per 10(9) platelets at day 14 in comparison with the initial value (6.87 +/- 2.25 pmol). The platelet aggregability was significantly suppressed at various time intervals but no additive or synergistic inhibitory effect by the combined administration was noted. In conclusion, the combined administration of BPT/CLZ is safe at doses used in the study, though the beneficial clinical effect of the combined administration has yet to be elucidated.","[{'text': 'prostacyclin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D011464'}, {'text': 'beraprost', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 77, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'C048081'}, {'text': 'cilostazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'C045645'}, {'text': 'prostacyclin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 190, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D011464'}, {'text': 'beraprost', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 212, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'C048081'}, {'text': 'BPT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'C048081'}, {'text': 'cilostazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'C045645'}, {'text': 'CLZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 281, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'C045645'}, {'text': 'cAMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 381, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D000242'}, {'text': ""cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D000242'}, {'text': 'BPT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 564, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'C048081'}, {'text': 'CLZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'C045645'}, {'text': 'BPT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 602, 'mesh': 'C048081'}, {'text': 'CLZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 671, 'end': 674, 'mesh': 'C045645'}, {'text': 'platelet aggregation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 789, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D001791'}, {'text': 'cAMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 845, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D000242'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 993, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'facial flush', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1047, 'mesh': 'D005483'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1065, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'CLZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1104, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'C045645'}, {'text': 'cAMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1267, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D000242'}, {'text': 'BPT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1652, 'end': 1655, 'mesh': 'C048081'}, {'text': 'CLZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1656, 'end': 1659, 'mesh': 'C045645'}]" +550,17965424,Gastrointestinal tolerability of etoricoxib in rheumatoid arthritis patients: results of the etoricoxib vs diclofenac sodium gastrointestinal tolerability and effectiveness trial (EDGE-II).,"OBJECTIVE: A randomised, double-blind study to compare the gastrointestinal (GI) tolerability, safety and efficacy of etoricoxib and diclofenac in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

The prespecified primary end point consisted of the cumulative rate of patient discontinuations due to clinical and laboratory GI adverse experiences (AEs). General safety was also assessed, including adjudicated thrombotic cardiovascular event data. Efficacy was evaluated using the Patient Global Assessment of Disease Status (PGADS; 0-4 point scale). RESULTS: Mean (SD; maximum) duration of treatment was 19.3 (10.3; 32.9) and 19.1 (10.4; 33.1) months in the etoricoxib and diclofenac groups, respectively. The cumulative discontinuation rate due to GI AEs was significantly lower with etoricoxib than diclofenac (5.2 vs 8.5 events per 100 patient-years, respectively; hazard ratio 0.62 (95% CI: 0.47, 0.81; p/=0.5 mg/dL (44 micromol/L) from baseline. We used time-to-event analysis to identify potential predictors of decrease in renal function including age, baseline ejection fraction, baseline creatinine, low systolic blood pressure (<100 mm Hg), history of hypertension, diabetes, and use of antiplatelet, diuretic, and beta-blocker therapy. RESULTS: Patients randomly assigned to enalapril had a 33% greater likelihood of decreased renal function than controls (P =.003). By multivariate analysis, in both the placebo and enalapril groups older age, diuretic therapy, and diabetes were associated with decreased renal function, whereas beta-blocker therapy and higher ejection fraction were renoprotective. Older age was associated with a greater risk of developing decreased renal function in both groups, but significantly more so in the enalapril group (enalapril: risk ratio [RR] 1.42 per 10 years, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.32-1.52 with enalapril; placebo: RR 1.18, 95% CI 1.12-1.25). Diuretic therapy was likewise associated with a greater risk of decreased renal function in the enalapril group (RR 1.89, 95% CI 1.70-2.08) than in the placebo group (RR 1.35, 95% CI 1.09-1.66). Conversely, enalapril had a relative renoprotective effect (RR 1.33, 95% CI 1.13-1.53) compared with placebo (RR 1.96, 95% CI 1.57-2.44) in patients with diabetes. A lower risk of renal impairment was seen in both groups with beta-blocker therapy (RR 0.70, 95% CI 0.57-0.85) and higher baseline ejection fraction (RR 0.93 per 5% increment, 95% CI 0.91-0. 96). CONCLUSIONS: Enalapril use caused a 33% increase in the risk of decreased renal function in patients with CHF. Diuretic use and advanced age increased this risk. Diabetes was associated with an increased risk of renal impairment in all patients with CHF, but this risk was reduced in the enalapril group compared with the placebo group. beta-Blocker therapy and higher ejection fraction were renoprotective in all patients regardless of therapy.","[{'text': 'decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 14, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 77, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'left ventricular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 154, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 212, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'congestive heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 301, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 327, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 351, 'end': 375, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'reduction in renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 578, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 601, 'end': 612, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'Left Ventricular Dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 695, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 789, 'end': 798, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 820, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 871, 'end': 880, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'Decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 999, 'end': 1023, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1065, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1256, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1321, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1343, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'diuretic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1370, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D004232'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1511, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1587, 'end': 1596, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'diuretic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1615, 'end': 1623, 'mesh': 'D004232'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1637, 'end': 1645, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1667, 'end': 1691, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1831, 'end': 1855, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1905, 'end': 1914, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1922, 'end': 1931, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2012, 'end': 2021, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'Diuretic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2060, 'end': 2068, 'mesh': 'D004232'}, {'text': 'decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2124, 'end': 2148, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2156, 'end': 2165, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2267, 'end': 2276, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2409, 'end': 2417, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'renal impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2435, 'end': 2451, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'Enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2628, 'end': 2637, 'mesh': 'D004656'}, {'text': 'decreased renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2679, 'end': 2703, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2721, 'end': 2724, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'Diuretic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2726, 'end': 2734, 'mesh': 'D004232'}, {'text': 'Diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2777, 'end': 2785, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'renal impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2827, 'end': 2843, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2865, 'end': 2868, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'enalapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2903, 'end': 2912, 'mesh': 'D004656'}]" +560,9022662,Pemoline induced acute choreoathetosis: case report and review of the literature.,"BACKGROUND: Pemoline is an oxazolidine derivative that is structurally different from amphetamines and used in the treatment of attention deficit disorder. Pemoline has not been commonly associated in the literature as a cause of acute movement disorders. The following case describes two children acutely poisoned with pemoline who experienced profound choreoathetosis. CASE REPORT: Two, 3-year-old male, identical twin siblings presented to the emergency department after found playing with a an empty bottle of pemoline originally containing 59 tablets. The children had a medical history significant for attention deficit disorder previously treated with methylphenidate without success. This was their first day of pemoline therapy. The choreoathetoid movements began 45 min to 1 h after ingestion. The children gave no history of prior movement disorders and there was no family history of movement disorders. The children received gastrointestinal decontamination and high doses of intravenous benzodiazepines in an attempt to control the choreoathetoid movements. Despite treatment, the children continued to have choreoathetosis for approximately 24 hours. Forty-eight hours after admission, the children appeared to be at their baseline and were discharged home. CONCLUSION: Pemoline associated movement disorder has been rarely reported in the acute toxicology literature. The possibility of choreoathetoid movements should be considered in patients presenting after pemoline overdose.","[{'text': 'Pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'choreoathetosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D002819|D001264'}, {'text': 'Pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 94, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'oxazolidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 109, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'C064210'}, {'text': 'amphetamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 168, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D000662'}, {'text': 'attention deficit disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D001289'}, {'text': 'Pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 238, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'movement disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 318, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 402, 'end': 410, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'choreoathetosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 436, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D002819|D001264'}, {'text': 'pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 596, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'attention deficit disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 690, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D001289'}, {'text': 'methylphenidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 741, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D008774'}, {'text': 'pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 802, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'choreoathetoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 824, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D002819|D001264'}, {'text': 'movement disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 942, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'movement disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 978, 'end': 996, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1083, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'choreoathetoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1128, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D002819|D001264'}, {'text': 'choreoathetosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D002819|D001264'}, {'text': 'Pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1367, 'end': 1375, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'movement disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1387, 'end': 1404, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'choreoathetoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1485, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D002819|D001264'}, {'text': 'pemoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1560, 'end': 1568, 'mesh': 'D010389'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1569, 'end': 1577, 'mesh': 'D062787'}]" +561,8677458,Continuous subcutaneous administration of mesna to prevent ifosfamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis.,"Hemorrhagic cystitis is a major potential toxicity of ifosfamide that can be prevented by administering mesna along with the cytotoxic agent. Mesna is generally administered by the intravenous route, although experience with oral delivery of the drug has increased. The continuous subcutaneous administration of mesna has the advantage of not requiring intravenous access. In addition, subcutaneous delivery of the neutralizing agent will not be associated with the risk of inadequate urinary mesna concentrations, such as in a patient taking oral mesna who experiences severe ifosfamide-induced emesis and is unable to absorb the drug. Limited clinical experience with continuous subcutaneous mesna administration suggests it is a safe, practical, and economic method of drug delivery that permits ifosfamide to be administered successfully in the outpatient setting.","[{'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 204, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'Mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 242, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 412, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 593, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 653, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 677, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'emesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 696, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 899, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'D007069'}]" +562,6323692,Modification of drug action by hyperammonemia.,"Pretreatment with ammonium acetate (NH4Ac) (6 mmol/kg s.c.) approximately doubled the time morphine-treated mice remained on a hot surface and similarly increased muscular incoordination by diazepam, but NH4Ac treatment alone had no effect. Thus, hyperammonemia is capable of altering drug action and must be considered along with impaired drug metabolism in enhanced drug responses associated with liver disease. Experiments in vitro showed that acetylcholine-induced catecholamine release from bovine adrenal medulla is depressed as much as 50% by 0.3 mM NH4Ac and KCl-induced contractions of guinea-pig ileum were inhibited 20% by 5 mM NH4Ac. Addition of excess calcium reversed the depression in both tissues, but calcium-independent catecholamine release by acetaldehyde was not blocked by NH4Ac. These results suggested that ammonia blocks calcium channels. Parallels in the actions of NH4Ac and the calcium channel blocker verapamil support this concept. Both verapamil (10 mg/kg i.p.) and NH4Ac pretreatment enhanced morphine analgesia- and diazepam-induced muscular incoordination and antagonized amphetamine-induced motor activity, and neither verapamil nor NH4Ac affected the convulsant action of metrazol. The data suggest that hyperammonemia exerts a calcium channel blocking action which enhances the effects of central nervous system depressants and certain opioid analgesics.","[{'text': 'hyperammonemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 31, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D022124'}, {'text': 'ammonium acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'incoordination', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D001259'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 237, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 251, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'hyperammonemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 294, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D022124'}, {'text': 'liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 446, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'KCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D011189'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 686, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 719, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 733, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 765, 'end': 772, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 785, 'end': 798, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'acetaldehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 810, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D000079'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 842, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 885, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 893, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 977, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1023, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1080, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'analgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D000699'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1104, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'incoordination', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1136, 'mesh': 'D001259'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1164, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'NH4Ac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1220, 'mesh': 'C018824'}, {'text': 'metrazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1263, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'hyperammonemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'D022124'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1311, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'D002118'}]" +563,20195852,Risk of nephropathy after consumption of nonionic contrast media by children undergoing cardiac angiography: a prospective study.,"Despite increasing reports on nonionic contrast media-induced nephropathy (CIN) in hospitalized adult patients during cardiac procedures, the studies in pediatrics are limited, with even less focus on possible predisposing factors and preventive measures for patients undergoing cardiac angiography. This prospective study determined the incidence of CIN for two nonionic contrast media (CM), iopromide and iohexol, among 80 patients younger than 18 years and compared the rates for this complication in relation to the type and dosage of CM and the presence of cyanosis. The 80 patients in the study consecutively received either iopromide (group A, n = 40) or iohexol (group B, n = 40). Serum sodium (Na), potassium (K), and creatinine (Cr) were measured 24 h before angiography as baseline values, then measured again at 12-, 24-, and 48-h intervals after CM use. Urine samples for Na and Cr also were checked at the same intervals. Risk of renal failure, Injury to the kidney, Failure of kidney function, Loss of kidney function, and End-stage renal damage (RIFLE criteria) were used to define CIN and its incidence in the study population. Accordingly, among the 15 CIN patients (18.75%), 7.5% of the patients in group A had increased risk and 3.75% had renal injury, whereas 5% of group B had increased risk and 2.5% had renal injury. Whereas 33.3% of the patients with CIN were among those who received the proper dosage of CM, the percentage increased to 66.6% among those who received larger doses, with a significant difference in the incidence of CIN related to the different dosages of CM (p = 0.014). Among the 15 patients with CIN, 6 had cyanotic congenital heart diseases, but the incidence did not differ significantly from that for the noncyanotic patients (p = 0.243). Although clinically silent, CIN is not rare in pediatrics. The incidence depends on dosage but not on the type of consumed nonionic CM, nor on the presence of cyanosis, and although CIN usually is reversible, more concern is needed for the prevention of such a complication in children.","[{'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 8, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'contrast media', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'contrast media', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 169, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 481, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'contrast media', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 502, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 518, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'iopromide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 523, 'end': 532, 'mesh': 'C038192'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 669, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'cyanosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 692, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D003490'}, {'text': 'iopromide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 761, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'C038192'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'Cr', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 869, 'end': 871, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 989, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1017, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Cr', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1074, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'Injury to the kidney', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1109, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'Failure of kidney function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'Loss of kidney function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1162, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1304, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1389, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1457, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1561, 'end': 1563, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1688, 'end': 1691, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1728, 'end': 1730, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1774, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'congenital heart diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1791, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1945, 'end': 1948, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2049, 'end': 2051, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'cyanosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2076, 'end': 2084, 'mesh': 'D003490'}, {'text': 'CIN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2099, 'end': 2102, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +564,18997632,A case of ventricular tachycardia related to caffeine pretreatment.,"Suboptimal seizure duration is commonly encountered in electroconvulsive therapy practice, especially in older patients with higher seizure thresholds.

Ethambutol is an antimycobacterial agent often used to treat tuberculosis. A serious complication of ethambutol is an optic neuropathy that impairs visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, and color vision. However, early on, when the toxic optic neuropathy is mild and partly reversible, the funduscopic findings are often subtle and easy to miss. METHODS: Three subjects with a history of ethambutol (EMB)-induced optic neuropathy of short-, intermediate-, and long-term visual deficits were administered a full neuro-ophthalmologic examination including visual acuity, color vision, contrast sensitivity, and fundus examination. In addition, OCT (OCT 3000, Humphrey-Zeiss, Dublin, CA) was performed on both eyes of each subject using the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) analysis protocol. OCT interpolates data from 100 points around the optic nerve to effectively map out the RNFL. RESULTS: The results were compared to the calculated average RNFL of normal eyes accumulated from four prior studies using OCT, n=661. In all subjects with history of EMB-induced optic neuropathy, there was a mean loss of 72% nerve fiber layer thickness in the temporal quadrant (patient A, with eventual recovery of visual acuity and fields, 58% loss; patient B, with intermediate visual deficits, 68% loss; patient C, with chronic visual deficits, 90% loss), with an average mean optic nerve thickness of 26+/-16 microm. There was a combined mean loss of 46% of fibers from the superior, inferior, and nasal quadrants in the (six) eyes of all three subjects (mean average thickness of 55+/-29 microm). In both sets (four) of eyes of the subjects with persistent visual deficits (patients B and C), there was an average loss of 79% of nerve fiber thickness in the temporal quadrant. CONCLUSIONS: The OCT results in these patients with EMB-induced optic neuropathy show considerable loss especially of the temporal fibers. This is consistent with prior histopathological studies that show predominant loss of parvo-cellular axons (or small-caliber axons) within the papillo-macular bundle in toxic or hereditary optic neuropathies. OCT can be a valuable tool in the quantitative analysis of optic neuropathies. Additionally, in terms of management of EMB-induced optic neuropathy, it is important to properly manage ethambutol dosing in patients with renal impairment and to achieve proper transition to a maintenance dose once an appropriate loading dose has been reached.","[{'text': 'ethambutol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'axonal degeneration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 161, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'ethambutol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 184, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 203, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'Ethambutol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 262, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'tuberculosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 323, 'end': 335, 'mesh': 'D014376'}, {'text': 'ethambutol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 363, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 380, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 499, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'ethambutol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 649, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'EMB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 661, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 674, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'visual deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 731, 'end': 746, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'EMB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'visual deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1527, 'end': 1542, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'visual deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1578, 'end': 1593, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'visual deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1909, 'end': 1924, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'EMB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2081, 'end': 2084, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2093, 'end': 2109, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2357, 'end': 2375, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2436, 'end': 2454, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'EMB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2496, 'end': 2499, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'optic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2508, 'end': 2524, 'mesh': 'D009901'}, {'text': 'ethambutol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2561, 'end': 2571, 'mesh': 'D004977'}, {'text': 'renal impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2596, 'end': 2612, 'mesh': 'D051437'}]" +566,15266215,Effects of the cyclooxygenase-2 specific inhibitor valdecoxib versus nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents and placebo on cardiovascular thrombotic events in patients with arthritis.,"There have been concerns that the risk of cardiovascular thrombotic events may be higher with cyclooxygenase (COX)-2-specific inhibitors than nonselective nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). We evaluated cardiovascular event data for valdecoxib, a new COX-2-specific inhibitor in approximately 8000 patients with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis treated with this agent in randomized clinical trials. The incidence of cardiovascular thrombotic events (cardiac, cerebrovascular and peripheral vascular, or arterial thrombotic) was determined by analyzing pooled valdecoxib (10-80 mg daily), nonselective NSAID (diclofenac 75 mg bid, ibuprofen 800 mg tid, or naproxen 500 mg bid) and placebo data from 10 randomized osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis trials that were 6-52 weeks in duration. The incidence rates of events were determined in all patients (n = 7934) and in users of low-dose (< or =325 mg daily) aspirin (n = 1051) and nonusers of aspirin (n = 6883). Crude and exposure-adjusted incidences of thrombotic events were similar for valdecoxib, NSAIDs, and placebo. The risk of serious thrombotic events was also similar for each valdecoxib dose. Thrombotic risk was consistently higher for users of aspirin users than nonusers of aspirin (placebo, 1.4% vs. 0%; valdecoxib, 1.7% vs. 0.2%; NSAIDs, 1.9% vs. 0.5%). The rates of events in users of aspirin were similar for all 3 treatment groups and across valdecoxib doses. Short- and intermediate-term treatment with therapeutic (10 or 20 mg daily) and supratherapeutic (40 or 80 mg daily) valdecoxib doses was not associated with an increased incidence of thrombotic events relative to nonselective NSAIDs or placebo in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis patients in controlled clinical trials.","[{'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 51, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 136, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 171, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D001168'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 239, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 426, 'end': 436, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'osteoarthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D010003'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 524, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D001172'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 632, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 713, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'diclofenac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 809, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 831, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'naproxen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D009288'}, {'text': 'osteoarthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'D010003'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 932, 'end': 952, 'mesh': 'D001172'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1113, 'end': 1120, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1220, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1245, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1352, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'Thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1359, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1412, 'end': 1419, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1443, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1484, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1557, 'end': 1564, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1616, 'end': 1626, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'valdecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1751, 'end': 1761, 'mesh': 'C406224'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1818, 'end': 1828, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'osteoarthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1882, 'end': 1896, 'mesh': 'D010003'}, {'text': 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1901, 'end': 1921, 'mesh': 'D001172'}]" +567,14742097,"A randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study of ephedrine for SSRI-induced female sexual dysfunction.","The objective of this study was to determine whether ephedrine, an alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonist previously shown to enhance genital blood flow in women, has beneficial effects in reversing antidepressant-induced sexual dysfunction.

The therapeutic use of selective DA D1 receptor agonists such as SKF-82958 (6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-3-allyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzaze pine hydrobromide) and A-77636 ([1R, 3S] 3-[1'-admantyl]-1-aminomethyl-3,4-dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy-1H-2-benzo pyran hydrochloride) seems limited because of their duration of action, which is too short for SKF-82958 (< 1 hr) and too long for A-77636 (> 20 hr, leading to behavioral tolerance). We therefore conducted the present acute dose-response study in four 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-exposed cynomolgus monkeys primed to exhibit levodopa-induced dyskinesias to evaluate the locomotor and dyskinetic effects on challenge with four doses (from 0.03 to 1.0 mg/kg) of A-86929 ([-]-[5aR,11bS]-4,5,5a,6,7,11b-hexahydro-2-propyl-3-thia-5-+ ++azacyclopent-1- ena[c]phenathrene-9-10-diol), a selective and full DA D1-like receptor agonist with an intermediate duration of action.

Acute administration of A-86929 was as efficacious in alleviating MPTP-induced parkinsonism as levodopa and LY-171555, but was less likely to reproduce the levodopa-induced dyskinesias in these animals than with either LY-171555 or subsequent challenge of levodopa. Selective stimulation of the DA D1 receptor may provide better integration of neural inputs transmitted to the internal segment of the globus pallidus (referred to as the basal ganglia output) compared with levodopa and selective DA D2 receptor agonist. Potent DA D1 receptor agents with an intermediate duration of efficacy such as A-86929 (approximately 4 hr at higher doses tested) are potential therapeutic tools in PD and merit further attention.","[{'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'A-86929', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'C095427'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 100, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D020734'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 113, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 162, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 172, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 238, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 293, 'end': 295, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'SKF-82958', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 325, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'C071262'}, {'text': '6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-3-allyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzaze pine hydrobromide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 336, 'end': 425, 'mesh': 'C071262'}, {'text': 'A-77636', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 431, 'end': 438, 'mesh': 'C079415'}, {'text': ""[1R, 3S] 3-[1'-admantyl]-1-aminomethyl-3,4-dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy-1H-2-benzo pyran hydrochloride"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 440, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'C079415'}, {'text': 'SKF-82958', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 611, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'C071262'}, {'text': 'A-77636', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 647, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'C079415'}, {'text': '1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 768, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 814, 'end': 818, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 882, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'A-86929', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1000, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'C095427'}, {'text': '[-]-[5aR,11bS]-4,5,5a,6,7,11b-hexahydro-2-propyl-3-thia-5-+ ++azacyclopent-1- ena[c]phenathrene-9-10-diol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1114, 'mesh': 'C095427'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'Levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'LY-171555', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1253, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'C416545'}, {'text': '[4aR-trans]-4,4a,5,6,7,8,8a,9-o-dihydro-5n-propyl-2H-pyrazo lo-3-4-quinoline hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1264, 'end': 1354, 'mesh': 'C416545'}, {'text': 'A-86929', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1411, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'C095427'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1453, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1466, 'end': 1478, 'mesh': 'D020734'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1482, 'end': 1490, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LY-171555', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1495, 'end': 1504, 'mesh': 'C416545'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1543, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1560, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LY-171555', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1606, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'C416545'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1643, 'end': 1651, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1682, 'end': 1684, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1860, 'end': 1868, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1883, 'end': 1885, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1914, 'end': 1916, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'A-86929', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1986, 'end': 1993, 'mesh': 'C095427'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2073, 'end': 2075, 'mesh': 'D010300'}]" +570,7189975,Deaths from local anesthetic-induced convulsions in mice.,"Median convulsant (CD50) and median lethal (LD50) doses of three representative local anesthetics were determined in adult mice to evaluate the threat to life of local anesthetic-induced convulsions.

When given intraperitoneally, bupivacaine thus was only about twice as toxic as lidocaine and four times as toxic as chloroprocaine. Convulsions always preceded death, except after precipitous cardiopulmonary arrest from extreme doses. A CD50 dose of local anesthetic (causing convulsions in 50% of mice) was fatal in 90% of bupivacaine-induced seizures, in 57% of the chloroprocaine group, and in 6% of the lidocaine group. The narrow gap between convulsant and lethal doses of local anesthetics indicates that untreated convulsions present much more of a threat to life than heretofore appreciated.","[{'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 245, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 320, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 359, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'chloroprocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 400, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'C004616'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 496, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'chloroprocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 533, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'C004616'}, {'text': 'Convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 549, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cardiopulmonary arrest', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 609, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 693, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 741, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 761, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'chloroprocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 785, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'C004616'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 824, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 938, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +571,6415512,"Myoclonic, atonic, and absence seizures following institution of carbamazepine therapy in children.","Five children, aged 3 to 11 years, treated with carbamazepine for epilepsy, had an acute aberrant reaction characterized by the onset of myoclonic, atypical absence and/or atonic (minor motor) seizures within a few days.

Functional evidence relating the IC to motor behavior derives from experiments showing that activation of the IC by electrical stimulation or excitatory amino acid microinjection causes freezing, escape-like behavior, and immobility. However, the nature of this immobility is still unclear. The present study examined the influence of excitatory amino acid-mediated mechanisms in the IC on the catalepsy induced by the dopamine receptor blocker haloperidol administered systemically (1 or 0.5 mg/kg) in rats. Haloperidol-induced catalepsy was challenged with prior intracollicular microinjections of glutamate NMDA receptor antagonists, MK-801 (15 or 30 mmol/0.5 microl) and AP7 (10 or 20 nmol/0.5 microl), or of the NMDA receptor agonist N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA, 20 or 30 nmol/0.5 microl). The results showed that intracollicular microinjection of MK-801 and AP7 previous to systemic injections of haloperidol significantly attenuated the catalepsy, as indicated by a reduced latency to step down from a horizontal bar. Accordingly, intracollicular microinjection of NMDA increased the latency to step down the bar. These findings suggest that glutamate-mediated mechanisms in the neural circuits at the IC level influence haloperidol-induced catalepsy and participate in the regulation of motor activity.","[{'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 99, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 119, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'amino acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 511, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'amino acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 694, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 742, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 767, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 793, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'Haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 877, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 948, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 958, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 985, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'AP7', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1023, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'C031231'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-d-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1109, 'end': 1113, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'AP7', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'C031231'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1261, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1291, 'end': 1300, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1419, 'end': 1423, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1496, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1575, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1595, 'end': 1604, 'mesh': 'D002375'}]" +575,19940105,Metabotropic glutamate 7 receptor subtype modulates motor symptoms in rodent models of Parkinson's disease.,"Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors modulate synaptic transmission in the central nervous system and represent promising therapeutic targets for symptomatic treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). Among the eight mGlu receptor subtypes, mGlu7 receptor is prominently expressed in the basal ganglia, but its role in restoring motor function in animal models of PD is not known. The effects of N,N'-dibenzhydrylethane-1,2-diamine dihydrochloride (AMN082), the first selective allosteric activator of mGlu7 receptors, were thus tested in different rodent models of PD. Here, we show that oral (5 mg/kg) or intrastriatal administration (0.1 and 0.5 nmol) of AMN082 reverses haloperidol-induced catalepsy in rats. AMN082 (2.5 and 5 mg/kg) reduces apomorphine-induced rotations in unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-lesioned rats. In a more complex task commonly used to evaluate major akinetic symptoms of PD patients, 5 mg/kg AMN082 reverses the increased reaction time to respond to a cue of bilateral 6-OHDA-lesioned rats. In addition, AMN082 reduces the duration of haloperidol-induced catalepsy in a mGlu7 receptor-dependent manner in wild-type but not mGlu7 receptor knockout mice. Higher doses of AMN082 (10 and 20 mg/kg p.o.) have no effect on the same models of PD. Overall these findings suggest that mGlu7 receptor activation can reverse motor dysfunction associated with reduced dopamine activity.

We tested the hypothesis that nimodipine (NIMO) administered at the onset of nitroglycerin (NTG)-induced hypotension would preserve long-term associative memory. METHODS: The passive avoidance (PA) paradigm was used to assess memory retention. For PA training, latencies (seconds) were recorded for entry from a suspended platform into a Plexiglas tube where a shock was automatically delivered. Latencies were recorded 48 h later for a testing trial. Ninety-six Swiss-Webster mice (30-35 g, 6-8 wk), were randomized into 6 groups 1) saline (control), 2) NTG immediately after learning, 3) NTG 3 h after learning, 4) NTG and NIMO, 5) vehicle, and 6) NIMO alone. The extent of hypotension and changes in brain tissue oxygenation (PbtO(2)) and in cerebral blood flow were studied in a separate group of animals. RESULTS: All groups exhibited similar training latencies (17.0 +/- 4.6 s). Mice subjected to hypotensive episodes showed a significant decrease in latency time (178 +/- 156 s) compared with those injected with saline, NTG + NIMO, or delayed NTG (580 +/- 81 s, 557 +/- 67 s, and 493 +/- 146 s, respectively). A Kruskal-Wallis 1-way analysis of variance indicated a significant difference among the 4 treatment groups (H = 15.34; P < 0.001). In a separate group of mice not subjected to behavioral studies, the same dose of NTG (n = 3) and NTG + NIMO (n = 3) caused mean arterial blood pressure to decrease from 85.9 +/- 3.8 mm Hg sem to 31.6 +/- 0.8 mm Hg sem and from 86.2 +/- 3.7 mm Hg sem to 32.6 +/- 0.2 mm Hg sem, respectively. Mean arterial blood pressure in mice treated with NIMO alone decreased from 88.1 +/- 3.8 mm Hg to 80.0 +/- 2.9 mm Hg. The intergroup difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). PbtO(2) decreased from 51.7 +/- 4.5 mm Hg sem to 33.8 +/- 5.2 mm Hg sem in the NTG group and from 38.6 +/- 6.1 mm Hg sem to 25.4 +/- 2.0 mm Hg sem in the NTG + NIMO groups, respectively. There were no significant differences among groups. CONCLUSION: In a PA retention paradigm, the injection of NTG immediately after learning produced a significant impairment of long-term associative memory in mice, whereas delayed induced hypotension had no effect. NIMO attenuated the disruption in consolidation of long-term memory caused by NTG but did not improve latency in the absence of hypotension. The observed effect of NIMO may have been attributable to the preservation of calcium homeostasis during hypotension, because there were no differences in the PbtO(2) indices among groups.","[{'text': 'Nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'Hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 109, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'cognitive dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 265, 'end': 275, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 277, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 312, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 340, 'end': 351, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 790, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 828, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 852, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 860, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 885, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 911, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1269, 'end': 1273, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1567, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1583, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1589, 'end': 1593, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1827, 'end': 1831, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2042, 'end': 2045, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2117, 'end': 2120, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2123, 'end': 2127, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2259, 'end': 2262, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2389, 'end': 2400, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2416, 'end': 2420, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'NTG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2494, 'end': 2497, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2544, 'end': 2555, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'NIMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2580, 'end': 2584, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2635, 'end': 2642, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2662, 'end': 2673, 'mesh': 'D007022'}]" +577,19058474,Fatal haemopericardium and gastrointestinal haemorrhage due to possible interaction of cranberry juice with warfarin.,"We report a case of fatal internal haemorrhage in an elderly man who consumed only cranberry juice for two weeks while maintaining his usual dosage of warfarin.

Severe alterations in the structural integrity of the sarcolemma of cardiomyocytes have been demonstrated to be caused by isoproterenol. Taking into account that the sarcolemmal integrity is stabilized by the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) that connects actin and laminin in contractile machinery and extracellular matrix and by integrins, this study tests the hypothesis that isoproterenol affects sarcolemmal stability through changes in the DGC and integrins. We found different sensitivity of the DGC and integrin to isoproterenol subcutaneous administration. Immunofluorescent staining revealed that dystrophin is the most sensitive among the structures connecting the actin in the cardiomyocyte cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. The sarcomeric actin dissolution occurred after the reduction or loss of dystrophin. Subsequently, after lysis of myofilaments, gamma-sarcoglycan, beta-dystroglycan, beta1-integrin, and laminin alpha-2 expressions were reduced followed by their breakdown, as epiphenomena of the myocytolytic process. In conclusion, administration of isoproterenol to rats results in primary loss of dystrophin, the most sensitive among the structural proteins that form the DGC that connects the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton in cardiomyocyte. These changes, related to ischaemic injury, explain the severe alterations in the structural integrity of the sarcolemma of cardiomyocytes and hence severe and irreversible injury induced by isoproterenol.","[{'text': 'Isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 117, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 139, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 187, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 231, 'end': 242, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'myocardial hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 247, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 470, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 732, 'end': 745, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 876, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1433, 'end': 1446, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'ischaemic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1681, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1830, 'end': 1843, 'mesh': 'D007545'}]" +579,18674790,High fat diet-fed obese rats are highly sensitive to doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity.,"Often, chemotherapy by doxorubicin (Adriamycin) is limited due to life threatening cardiotoxicity in patients during and posttherapy. Recently, we have shown that moderate diet restriction remarkably protects against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. This cardioprotection is accompanied by decreased cardiac oxidative stress and triglycerides and increased cardiac fatty-acid oxidation, ATP synthesis, and upregulated JAK/STAT3 pathway. In the current study, we investigated whether a physiological intervention by feeding 40% high fat diet (HFD), which induces obesity in male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-275 g), sensitizes to doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. A LD(10) dose (8 mg doxorubicin/kg, ip) administered on day 43 of the HFD feeding regimen led to higher cardiotoxicity, cardiac dysfunction, lipid peroxidation, and 80% mortality in the obese (OB) rats in the absence of any significant renal or hepatic toxicity. Doxorubicin toxicokinetics studies revealed no change in accumulation of doxorubicin and doxorubicinol (toxic metabolite) in the normal diet-fed (ND) and OB hearts. Mechanistic studies revealed that OB rats are sensitized due to: (1) higher oxyradical stress leading to upregulation of uncoupling proteins 2 and 3, (2) downregulation of cardiac peroxisome proliferators activated receptor-alpha, (3) decreased plasma adiponectin levels, (4) decreased cardiac fatty-acid oxidation (666.9+/-14.0 nmol/min/g heart in ND versus 400.2+/-11.8 nmol/min/g heart in OB), (5) decreased mitochondrial AMP-alpha2 protein kinase, and (6) 86% drop in cardiac ATP levels accompanied by decreased ATP/ADP ratio after doxorubicin administration. Decreased cardiac erythropoietin and increased SOCS3 further downregulated the cardioprotective JAK/STAT3 pathway. In conclusion, HFD-induced obese rats are highly sensitized to doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by substantially downregulating cardiac mitochondrial ATP generation, increasing oxidative stress and downregulating the JAK/STAT3 pathway.","[{'text': 'fat', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 5, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D004041'}, {'text': 'obese', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 18, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 53, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 112, 'end': 123, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 172, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 306, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 326, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'triglycerides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 421, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'fat', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 624, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D004041'}, {'text': 'obesity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 654, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 717, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 737, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 773, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 857, 'end': 871, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 873, 'end': 892, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'obese', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 939, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'OB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 946, 'end': 948, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicinol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1105, 'end': 1118, 'mesh': 'C010013'}, {'text': 'OB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'OB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'OB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'AMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1606, 'end': 1609, 'mesh': 'D000249'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1661, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1697, 'end': 1700, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'ADP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1701, 'end': 1704, 'mesh': 'D000244'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1717, 'end': 1728, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'obese', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1887, 'end': 1892, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1923, 'end': 1934, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1943, 'end': 1957, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2012, 'end': 2015, 'mesh': 'D000255'}]" +580,18441470,Complete atrioventricular block secondary to lithium therapy.,"Sinus node dysfunction has been reported most frequently among the adverse cardiovascular effects of lithium.

(Anacardiaceae), on isoproterenol (ISPH)-induced myocardial infarction (MI) in rats through its antioxidative mechanism. Subcutaneous injection of ISPH (200 mg/kg body weight in 1 ml saline) to rats for 2 consecutive days caused myocardial damage in rat heart, which was determined by the increased activity of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine phosphokinase isoenzymes (CK-MB), increased uric acid level and reduced plasma iron binding capacity. The protective role of mangiferin was analyzed by triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) test used for macroscopic enzyme mapping assay of the ischemic myocardium. The heart tissue antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione transferase and glutathione reductase activities, non-enzymic antioxidants such as cerruloplasmin, Vitamin C, Vitamin E and glutathione levels were altered in MI rats. Upon pretreatment with mangiferin (100 mg/kg body weight suspended in 2 ml of dimethyl sulphoxide) given intraperitoneally for 28 days to MI rats protected the above-mentioned parameters to fall from the normal levels. Activities of heart tissue enzymic antioxidants and serum non-enzymic antioxidants levels rose significantly upon mangiferin administration as compared to ISPH-induced MI rats. From the present study it is concluded that mangiferin exerts a beneficial effect against ISPH-induced MI due to its antioxidant potential, which regulated the tissues defense system against cardiac damage.","[{'text': 'mangiferin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 8, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'C013592'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 94, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'mangiferin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 177, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'C013592'}, {'text': 'polyphenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 191, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D059808'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 250, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'ISPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 265, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 279, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 302, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'ISPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 377, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 459, 'end': 476, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'lactate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 547, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 579, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'uric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 667, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'mangiferin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 713, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'C013592'}, {'text': 'triphenyl tetrazolium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 740, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'C009591'}, {'text': 'TTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 772, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'C009591'}, {'text': 'ischemic myocardium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 831, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 907, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 929, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 981, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'Vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1064, 'end': 1073, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'Vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'mangiferin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'C013592'}, {'text': 'dimethyl sulphoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D004121'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1273, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'mangiferin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1466, 'end': 1476, 'mesh': 'C013592'}, {'text': 'ISPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1511, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1520, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'mangiferin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1583, 'mesh': 'C013592'}, {'text': 'ISPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1619, 'end': 1623, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1632, 'end': 1634, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cardiac damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1720, 'end': 1734, 'mesh': 'D006331'}]" +583,16563323,Remifentanil pretreatment reduces myoclonus after etomidate.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to compare the effect of pretreatment with remifentanil 1 microg/kg and the effect of gender on the incidence of myoclonus after anesthesia induction with etomidate. DESIGN: This was a randomized, double-blind study. SETTING: The study was conducted at a university hospital. PATIENTS: Sixty patients were pretreated in a randomized double-blinded fashion with remifentanil 1 microg/kg or placebo. Two minutes after remifentanil or placebo injection, etomidate 0.3 mg/kg was given. MEASUREMENTS: Myoclonus was recorded with a scale of 0 to 3. The grade of sedation (none, mild, moderate, severe), nausea, pruritus, and apnea were recorded after injection of both drugs. MAIN RESULTS: The incidence of myoclonus was significantly lower in the remifentanil group (6.7%) than in the placebo group (70%) (P < 0.001). None of the patients experienced sedation, apnea, nausea, or pruritus after injection of both drugs. In the placebo group, male patients were associated with significantly increased incidence of myoclonus after etomidate administration. CONCLUSION: Pretreatment with remifentanil 1 microg/kg reduced myoclonus after etomidate induction without side effects such as sedation, apnea, nausea, or pruritus. Men experience increased incidence of myoclonus than women after etomidate administration.","[{'text': 'Remifentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'C071741'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 34, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'remifentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 146, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'C071741'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 216, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 258, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'remifentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 464, 'end': 476, 'mesh': 'C071741'}, {'text': 'remifentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 519, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'C071741'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'Myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 599, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 700, 'end': 706, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'pruritus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 708, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D011537'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 722, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'remifentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 845, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'C071741'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 959, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 966, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'pruritus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 977, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D011537'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1120, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1136, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'remifentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'C071741'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1216, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1232, 'end': 1241, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1291, 'end': 1296, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1304, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'pruritus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1317, 'mesh': 'D011537'}, {'text': 'myoclonus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1357, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1384, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D005045'}]" +584,16428827,Daidzein activates choline acetyltransferase from MC-IXC cells and improves drug-induced amnesia.,"The choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activator, which enhances cholinergic transmission via an augmentation of the enzymatic production of acetylcholine (ACh), is an important factor in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methanolic extracts from Pueraria thunbergiana exhibited an activation effect (46%) on ChAT in vitro. Via the sequential isolation of Pueraria thunbergiana, the active component was ultimately identified as daidzein (4',7-dihydroxy-isoflavone). In order to investigate the effects of daidzein from Pueraria thunbergiana on scopolamine-induced impairments of learning and memory, we conducted a series of in vivo tests. Administration of daidzein (4.5 mg/kg body weight) to mice was shown significantly to reverse scopolamine-induced amnesia, according to the results of a Y-maze test. Injections of scopolamine into mice resulted in impaired performance on Y-maze tests (a 37% decreases in alternation behavior). By way of contrast, mice treated with daidzein prior to the scopolamine injections were noticeably protected from this performance impairment (an approximately 12%-21% decrease in alternation behavior). These results indicate that daidzein might play a role in acetylcholine biosynthesis as a ChAT activator, and that it also ameliorates scopolamine-induced amnesia.","[{'text': 'Daidzein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'C004742'}, {'text': 'choline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D002794'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'choline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D002794'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 237, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'ACh', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 252, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 301, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'AD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 322, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'daidzein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 534, 'end': 542, 'mesh': 'C004742'}, {'text': ""4',7-dihydroxy-isoflavone"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 544, 'end': 569, 'mesh': 'C004742'}, {'text': 'daidzein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 611, 'end': 619, 'mesh': 'C004742'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 650, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'daidzein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 764, 'end': 772, 'mesh': 'C004742'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 840, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 860, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 937, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'daidzein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'C004742'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1111, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'daidzein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'C004742'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1378, 'end': 1389, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1398, 'end': 1405, 'mesh': 'D000647'}]" +585,15985056,Possible azithromycin-associated hiccups.,"OBJECTIVE: To report a case of persistent hiccups associated by azithromycin therapy. CASE SUMMARY: A 76-year-old man presented with persistent hiccups after beginning azithromycin for the treatment of pharyngitis. Hiccups were persistent and exhausting. Discontinuation of azithromycin and therapy with baclofen finally resolved hiccups. No organic cause of hiccups was identified despite extensive investigation. DISCUSSION: Pharmacotherapeutic agents have been uncommonly associated with hiccups. Corticosteroids (dexamethasone and methylprednisolone), benzodiazepines (midazolam) and general anaesthesia have been the specific agents mentioned most frequently in the literature as being associated with the development of hiccups. Few cases of drug-induced hiccups have been reported related to macrolide antimicrobials. Using the Naranjo adverse effect reaction probability scale this event could be classified as possible (score 5 points), mostly because of the close temporal sequence, previous reports on this reaction with other macrolides and the absence of any alternative explanation for hiccups. Our hypothesis is that a vagal mechanism mediated by azithromycin could be the pathogenesis of hiccups in our patient. CONCLUSIONS: Diagnosis of drug-induced hiccups is difficult and often achieved only by a process of elimination. However, macrolide antimicrobials have been reported to be associated with hiccups and vagal mechanism could explain the development of this side-effect.","[{'text': 'azithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 9, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D017963'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 33, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 84, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'azithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D017963'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'azithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 210, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D017963'}, {'text': 'pharyngitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D010612'}, {'text': 'Hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 257, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'azithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 316, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D017963'}, {'text': 'baclofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 346, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D001418'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 372, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 401, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'methylprednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 577, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D008775'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 598, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'midazolam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 615, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D008874'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 768, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 803, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'macrolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 841, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D018942'}, {'text': 'macrolides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D018942'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'azithromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'D017963'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1316, 'mesh': 'D006606'}, {'text': 'macrolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1392, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D018942'}, {'text': 'hiccups', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1458, 'end': 1465, 'mesh': 'D006606'}]" +586,15276120,Time trends in warfarin-associated hemorrhage.,"The annual incidence of warfarin-related bleeding at Brigham and Women's Hospital increased from 0.97/1,000 patient admissions in the first time period (January 1995 to October 1998) to 1.19/1,000 patient admissions in the second time period (November 1998 to August 2002) of this study.

In recent years, increasing evidence has suggested that the messenger molecule nitric oxide (NO) is involved in pain mechanisms of migraine without aura. In order to clarify whether the same is true for migraine with aura, in the present study we examined the headache response to intravenous infusion of glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) (0.5 microg/kg/min for 20 min) in 12 sufferers of migraine with aura. The specific aim was to elucidate whether an aura and/or an attack of migraine without aura could be induced. Fourteen healthy subjects served as controls. Aura symptoms were not elicited in any subject. Headache was more severe in migraineurs than in the controls during and immediately after GTN infusion (p=0.037) as well as during the following 11 h (p = 0.008). In the controls, the GTN-induced headache gradually disappeared, whereas in migraineurs peak headache intensity occurred at a mean time of 240 min post-infusion. At this time the induced headache in 6 of 12 migraineurs fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for migraine without aura of the International Headache Society. The results therefore suggest that NO is involved in the pain mechanisms of migraine with aura. Since cortical spreading depression has been shown to liberate NO in animals, this finding may help our understanding of the coupling between cortical spreading depression and headache in migraine with aura.","[{'text': 'Glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'migraine without aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D020326'}, {'text': 'migraine with aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 77, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D020325'}, {'text': 'Migraine with aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 97, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D020325'}, {'text': 'migraine without aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 120, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D020326'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 156, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'migraine with aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 189, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D020325'}, {'text': 'migraine without aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D020326'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 352, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 366, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 385, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'migraine without aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 404, 'end': 425, 'mesh': 'D020326'}, {'text': 'migraine with aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 476, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D020325'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 578, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 602, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'migraine with aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 654, 'end': 672, 'mesh': 'D020325'}, {'text': 'migraine without aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 744, 'end': 765, 'mesh': 'D020326'}, {'text': 'Headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 878, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'migraineurs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 906, 'end': 917, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 968, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1062, 'end': 1065, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1074, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'migraineurs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1236, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'migraineurs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1248, 'end': 1259, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'migraine without aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D020326'}, {'text': 'Headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1341, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1394, 'end': 1396, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1420, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'migraine with aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1435, 'end': 1453, 'mesh': 'D020325'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1480, 'end': 1490, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1518, 'end': 1520, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1616, 'end': 1626, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1639, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'migraine with aura', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1643, 'end': 1661, 'mesh': 'D020325'}]" +589,9799166,Stroke and cocaine or amphetamine use.,"The association of cocaine and amphetamine use with hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke is based almost solely on data from case series. The limited number of epidemiologic studies of stroke and use of cocaine and/or amphetamine have been done in settings that serve mostly the poor and/or minorities. This case-control study was conducted in the defined population comprising members of Kaiser Permanente of Northern and Southern California. We attempted to identify all incident strokes in women ages 15-44 years during a 3-year period using hospital admission and discharge records, emergency department logs, and payment requests for out-of-plan hospitalizations. We selected controls, matched on age and facility of usual care, at random from healthy members of the health plan. We obtained information in face-to-face interviews. There were 347 confirmed stroke cases and 1,021 controls. The univariate matched odds ratio for stroke in women who admitted to using cocaine and/or amphetamine was 8.5 (95% confidence interval = 3.6-20.0). After further adjustment for potential confounders, the odds ratio in women who reported using cocaine and/or amphetamine was 7.0 (95% confidence interval = 2.8-17.9). The use of cocaine and/or amphetamine is a strong risk factor for stroke in this socioeconomically heterogeneous, insured urban population.","[{'text': 'Stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 6, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 107, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 116, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 237, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 252, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'strokes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 516, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 896, 'end': 902, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 967, 'end': 973, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1005, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1031, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1180, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1188, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1257, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1272, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'D020521'}]" +590,9672273,Prevention of breast cancer with tamoxifen: preliminary findings from the Italian randomised trial among hysterectomised women. Italian Tamoxifen Prevention Study.,"BACKGROUND: Tamoxifen is a candidate chemopreventive agent in breast cancer, although the drug may be associated with the development of endometrial cancer. Therefore we did a trial in hysterectomised women of tamoxifen as a chemopreventive. METHODS: In October, 1992, we started a double-blind placebo-controlled, randomised trial of tamoxifen in women (mainly in Italy) who did not have breast cancer and who had had a hysterectomy. Women were randomised to receive tamoxifen 20 mg per day or placebo, both orally for 5 years. The original plan was to follow the intervention phase by 5 years' follow-up. In June, 1997, the trialists and the data-monitoring committee decided to end recruitment primarily because of the number of women dropping out of the study. Recruitment ended on July 11, 1997, and the study will continue as planned. The primary endpoints are the occurrence of and deaths from breast cancer. This preliminary interim analysis is based on intention-to-treat. FINDINGS: 5408 women were randomised; participating women have a median follow-up of 46 months for major endpoints. 41 cases of breast cancer occurred so far; there have been no deaths from breast cancer. There is no difference in breast-cancer frequency between the placebo (22 cases) and tamoxifen (19) arms. There is a statistically significant reduction of breast cancer among women receiving tamoxifen who also used hormone-replacement therapy during the trial: among 390 women on such therapy and allocated to placebo, we found eight cases of breast cancer compared with one case among 362 women allocated to tamoxifen. Compared with the placebo group, there was a significantly increased risk of vascular events and hypertriglyceridaemia among women on tamoxifen. INTERPRETATION: Although this preliminary analysis has low power, in this cohort of women at low-to-normal risk of breast cancer, the postulated protective effects of tamoxifen are not yet apparent. Women using hormone-replacement therapy appear to have benefited from use of tamoxifen. There were no deaths from breast cancer recorded in women in the study. It is essential to continue follow-up to quantify the long-term risks and benefits of tamoxifen therapy.","[{'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 14, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'Tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 136, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'Tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 176, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'endometrial cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 301, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 374, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 499, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 553, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1287, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1336, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast-cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1377, 'end': 1390, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1520, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1543, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1695, 'end': 1708, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1761, 'end': 1770, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'vascular events', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1849, 'end': 1864, 'mesh': 'D014652'}, {'text': 'hypertriglyceridaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1869, 'end': 1890, 'mesh': 'D015228'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1906, 'end': 1915, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2032, 'end': 2045, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2084, 'end': 2093, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2193, 'end': 2202, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2230, 'end': 2243, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2362, 'end': 2371, 'mesh': 'D013629'}]" +591,8854309,A measure of pupillary oscillation as a marker of cocaine-induced paranoia.,Cocaine-induced paranoia (CIP) remains an important drug-induced model of idiopathic paranoia for which no psychophysiologic marker has yet emerged.

Nineteen patients had Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, one patient had systemic mastocytosis, and two patients had idiopathic hypersecretion. The rates of onset of the action of cimetidine and ranitidine were the same. The actions of both drugs were increased by anticholinergic agents, and there was a close correlation between the daily maintenance dose of each drug needed to control acid secretion. However, ranitidine was threefold more potent than cimetidine both in acute inhibition studies and in the median maintenance dose needed (1.2 g per day for ranitidine and 3.6 g per day for cimetidine). Sixty percent of the males developed breast changes or impotence while taking cimetidine and in all cases these changes disappeared when cimetidine was replaced by ranitidine. Treatment with high doses of cimetidine (one to 60 months; median, 11 months) or ranitidine (two to 31 months; median, 14 months) was not associated with hepatic or hematologic toxicity or alterations of serum gastrin concentrations, but ranitidine therapy was associated with a significantly lower serum creatinine level than seen with cimetidine therapy. The results show that both drugs can adequately inhibit acid secretion in patients with gastric hypersecretory states. Both are safe at high doses, but ranitidine is threefold more potent and does not cause the antiandrogen side effects frequently seen with high doses of cimetidine.","[{'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 35, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'histamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D006632'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 176, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 191, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'Zollinger-Ellison syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 385, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D015043'}, {'text': 'systemic mastocytosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 429, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D034721'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 536, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 551, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 770, 'end': 780, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 812, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 917, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 950, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'impotence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D007172'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1041, 'end': 1051, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1110, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1220, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1377, 'end': 1387, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1476, 'end': 1486, 'mesh': 'D002927'}, {'text': 'ranitidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1648, 'end': 1658, 'mesh': 'D011899'}, {'text': 'cimetidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1768, 'end': 1778, 'mesh': 'D002927'}]" +595,3670965,A catch in the Reye.,"Twenty-six cases of Reye syndrome from The Children's Hospital, Camperdown, Australia, occurring between 1973 and 1982 were reviewed. Of these, 20 cases met the US Public Health Service Centers for Disease Control criteria for the diagnosis of Reye syndrome. Aspirin or salicylate ingestion had occurred in only one of the 20 cases (5%), and paracetamol (acetaminophen) had been administered in only six of the cases (30%). Pathologic confirmation of the diagnosis of Reye syndrome was accomplished in 90% of the cases. The incidence of Reye syndrome in New South Wales, Australia, is estimated from this study to be approximately nine cases per 1 million children compared with recent US data of ten to 20 cases per 1 million children and three to seven cases per 1 million children in Great Britain. The mortality for these Reye syndrome cases in Australia was 45% as compared with a 32% case-fatality rate in the United States. In Australia, the pediatric usage of aspirin has been extremely low for the past 25 years (less than 1% of total dosage units sold), with paracetamol (acetaminophen) dominating the pediatric analgesic and antipyretic market. Reye syndrome may be disappearing from Australia despite a total lack of association with salicylates or aspirin ingestion, since there were no cases found at The Children's Hospital in 1983, 1984, or 1985.","[{'text': 'Reye', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D012202'}, {'text': 'Reye syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 41, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D012202'}, {'text': 'Reye syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D012202'}, {'text': 'Aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 280, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'salicylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 291, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D012459'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 363, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 376, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'Reye syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 489, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D012202'}, {'text': 'Reye syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 558, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D012202'}, {'text': 'Reye syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 847, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D012202'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 989, 'end': 996, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1101, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1116, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'Reye syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D012202'}, {'text': 'salicylates', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1267, 'end': 1278, 'mesh': 'D012459'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D001241'}]" +596,3300918,"St. Anthony's fire, then and now: a case report and historical review.","A rare case of morbid vasospasm, together with striking angiographic findings, is described secondary to the ingestion of methysergide by a 48-year-old woman.

Subsequently we investigated the efficacy of oxprenolol in antagonizing such hypokalemia, together with the pharmacokinetic interaction between both drugs. Six healthy subjects were given a 0.5 mg subcutaneous dose of terbutaline on two occasions: 1 hour after oral administration of a placebo and 1 hour after 80 mg oxprenolol orally. In the 7-hour period after terbutaline administration, plasma samples were taken for determination of plasma potassium levels and drug concentrations. The sigmoid Emax model offered a good description of the relation between terbutaline concentrations and potassium effects. Oxprenolol caused decreases of 65% and 56% of terbutaline volume of distribution and clearance, respectively, and an increase of 130% of its AUC. In spite of higher terbutaline concentrations after oxprenolol pretreatment, the hypokalemia was almost completely antagonized by the beta 2-blocking action.","[{'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 29, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'oxprenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 64, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D010096'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 153, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'oxprenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 278, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D010096'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 310, 'end': 321, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 451, 'end': 462, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'oxprenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 550, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'D010096'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 596, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 678, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 834, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Oxprenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 844, 'end': 854, 'mesh': 'D010096'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 890, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'terbutaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1020, 'mesh': 'D013726'}, {'text': 'oxprenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1042, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D010096'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'D007008'}]" +598,2422478,Midline B3 serotonin nerves in rat medulla are involved in hypotensive effect of methyldopa.,"Previous experiments in this laboratory have shown that microinjection of methyldopa onto the ventrolateral cells of the B3 serotonin neurons in the medulla elicits a hypotensive response mediated by a projection descending into the spinal cord. The present experiments were designed to investigate the role of the midline cells of the B3 serotonin neurons in the medulla, coinciding with the raphe magnus. In spontaneously hypertensive, stroke-prone rats, microinjection of methyldopa into the area of the midline B3 serotonin cell group in the ventral medulla caused a potent hypotension of 30-40 mm Hg, which was maximal 2-3 h after administration and was abolished by the serotonin neurotoxin 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHT) injected intracerebroventricularly. However, intraspinal injection of 5,7-DHT to produce a more selective lesion of only descending serotonin projections in the spinal cord did not affect this hypotension. Further, 5,7-DHT lesion of serotonin nerves travelling in the median forebrain bundle, one of the main ascending pathways from the B3 serotonin cells, did not affect the fall in blood pressure associated with a midline B3 serotonin methyldopa injection. It is concluded therefore that, unlike the ventrolateral B3 cells which mediate a methyldopa-induced hypotension via descending projections, the midline serotonin B3 cells in the medulla contribute to the hypotensive action of methyldopa, either by way of an ascending projection which does not pass through the median forebrain bundle, or through a projection restricted to the caudal brainstem.","[{'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 59, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 167, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 217, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 260, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 432, 'end': 441, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 517, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 531, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 611, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 671, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 769, 'end': 778, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5,7-dihydroxytryptamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 790, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D015116'}, {'text': '5,7-DHT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 815, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D015116'}, {'text': '5,7-DHT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 894, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D015116'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 956, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1017, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': '5,7-DHT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D015116'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1057, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1261, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1262, 'end': 1272, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1366, 'end': 1376, 'mesh': 'D008750'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1385, 'end': 1396, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1437, 'end': 1446, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'methyldopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1521, 'mesh': 'D008750'}]" +599,1535072,Yohimbine treatment of sexual side effects induced by serotonin reuptake blockers.,"BACKGROUND: Preclinical and clinical studies suggest that yohimbine facilitates sexual behavior and may be helpful in the treatment of male impotence. A single case report suggests that yohimbine may be used to treat the sexual side effects of clomipramine. This study evaluated yohimbine as a treatment for the sexual side effects caused by serotonin reuptake blockers. METHOD: Six patients with either obsessive compulsive disorder, trichotillomania, anxiety, or affective disorders who suffered sexual side effects after treatment with serotonin reuptake blockers were given yohimbine on a p.r.n. basis in an open clinical trial. Various doses of yohimbine were used to determine the ideal dose for each patient. RESULTS: Five of the six patients experienced improved sexual functioning after taking yohimbine. One patient who failed to comply with yohimbine treatment had no therapeutic effects. Side effects of yohimbine included excessive sweating, increased anxiety, and a wound-up feeling in some patients. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that yohimbine may be an effective treatment for the sexual side effects caused by serotonin reuptake blockers. Future controlled studies are needed to further investigate the effectiveness and safety of yohimbine for this indication.","[{'text': 'Yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'sexual side effects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D020018'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 63, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 141, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'male impotence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 218, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D007172'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'sexual side effects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 304, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D020018'}, {'text': 'clomipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D002997'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'sexual side effects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 395, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D020018'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 425, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'obsessive compulsive disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 487, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D009771'}, {'text': 'trichotillomania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 518, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D014256'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 536, 'end': 543, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'affective disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 548, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D019964'}, {'text': 'sexual side effects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 581, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D020018'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 622, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 661, 'end': 670, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 733, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 935, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 999, 'end': 1008, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1048, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1150, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'sexual side effects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1198, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D020018'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D015016'}]" +600,1504402,Hypersensitivity immune reaction as a mechanism for dilevalol-associated hepatitis.,"OBJECTIVE: To assess lymphocyte reactivity to dilevalol and to serum containing putative ex vivo dilevalol antigens or metabolites in a case of dilevalol-induced liver injury.

METHODS: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected from the patient were cultured in the presence of a solution of dilevalol and also with sera collected from a volunteer before and after dilevalol intake. A similar protocol was performed with lymphocytes from a healthy subject. RESULTS: No lymphocyte proliferation was observed either in the patient or in the healthy volunteer in the presence of dilevalol solutions. A significant proliferative response to serum collected after dilevalol intake was observed in the case of the patient compared with the proliferative response to the serum collected before the drug intake.

However, adverse effects include cardiac toxicity. Herein we describe transient myocardial hypertrophy induced by tacrolimus after heart transplantation. The hypertrophy caused no clinical symptoms but was noted because of elevation of plasma brain natriuretic peptide concentration and confirmed at echocardiography. Initially, allograft rejection was feared; however, myocardial biopsy samples revealed only interstitial edema and mild myocardial hypertrophy; neither cellular nor humoral rejection was detected. The blood tacrolimus concentration was higher than usual at that time; thus, tacrolimus dosage was reduced. Myocardial hypertrophy completely resolved upon reducing the target concentration of tacrolimus and did not recur, as confirmed at echocardiography and myocardial biopsy. Thus, we conclude that tacrolimus induces reversible myocardial hypertrophy. In patients receiving tacrolimus therapy, blood concentration should be carefully controlled and extreme attention paid to cardiac involvement.","[{'text': 'myocardial hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 11, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 45, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'Tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 112, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'myocardial hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 283, 'end': 305, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 317, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 361, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 626, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'myocardial hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 641, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 728, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 795, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'Myocardial hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 826, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 911, 'end': 921, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1030, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'myocardial hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1050, 'end': 1072, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D016559'}]" +602,19234905,Comparison of unilateral pallidotomy and subthalamotomy findings in advanced idiopathic Parkinson's disease.,"A prospective, randomized, double-blind pilot study to compare the results of stereotactic unilateral pallidotomy and subthalamotomy in advanced idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) refractory to medical treatment was designed.

All patients had bilateral symptoms and their levodopa equivalent dosing were analysed. Six patients were operated on in the globus pallidus interna (GPi) and four in the subthalamic nucleus (STN). Clinical evaluation included the use of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Hoehn_Yahr score and Schwab England activities of daily living (ADL) score in 'on'- and 'off'-drug conditions before surgery and 6 months after surgery. There was statistically significant improvement in all contralateral major parkinsonian motor signs in all patients followed for 6 months. Levodopa equivalent daily intake was significantly reduced in the STN group. Changes in UPDRS, Hoehn _ Yahr and Schwab England ADL scores were similar in both groups.

Antithrombin (50 or 500 IU/kg/i.v.) was administered to rats once a day for 10 days immediately after the injection of puromycin aminonucleoside (50 mg/kg/i.v.). Treatment with antithrombin attenuated the puromycin aminonucleoside-induced hematological abnormalities. Puromycin aminonucleoside-induced renal dysfunction and hyperlipidemia were also suppressed. Histopathological examination revealed severe renal damage such as proteinaceous casts in tubuli and tubular expansion in the kidney of control rats, while an improvement of the damage was seen in antithrombin-treated rats. In addition, antithrombin treatment markedly suppressed puromycin aminonucleoside-induced apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells. Furthermore, puromycin aminonucleoside-induced increases in renal cytokine content were also decreased. These findings suggest that thrombin plays an important role in the pathogenesis of puromycin aminonucleoside-induced nephrotic syndrome. Treatment with antithrombin may be clinically effective in patients with nephrotic syndrome.","[{'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 63, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 64, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 184, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 218, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 269, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'hematological abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 528, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'Puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 557, 'end': 582, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 591, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hyperlipidemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 613, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D006949'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 696, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 930, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1047, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1342, 'mesh': 'D009404'}]" +604,18177388,Reverse or inverted left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome (reverse Takotsubo cardiomyopathy) in a young woman in the setting of amphetamine use.,"Transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome was first described in Japan as ""Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.""

We investigated the effect of an early stress, in the form of maternal deprivation, combined with a later stress, simulated by chronic periadolescent corticosterone treatment, on behaviour in rats. Acute treatment with apomorphine caused disruption of prepulse inhibition (PPI) in controls and in rats that had undergone either maternal deprivation or corticosterone treatment, but was surprisingly absent in rats that had undergone the combined early and late stress. Amphetamine treatment significantly disrupted PPI in both non-deprived groups, but was absent in both maternally deprived groups. The serotonin-1A receptor agonist, 8-OH-DPAT, induced a significant disruption of PPI in all groups. Amphetamine-induced locomotor hyperactivity was similar in all groups. These results show an inhibitory interaction of early stress, caused by maternal deprivation, combined with 'adolescent' stress, simulated by corticosterone treatment, on dopaminergic regulation of PPI. The altered effects of apomorphine and amphetamine could indicate differential changes in dopamine receptor signalling leading to functional desensitisation, or altered modulation of sensory gating in the nucleus accumbens by limbic structures such as the hippocampus.","[{'text': 'corticosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D003345'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 168, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'corticosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 492, 'end': 506, 'mesh': 'D003345'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'corticosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 694, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D003345'}, {'text': 'Amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 811, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 945, 'end': 954, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '8-OH-DPAT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 976, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D017371'}, {'text': 'Amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1042, 'end': 1053, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'locomotor hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1062, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'corticosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D003345'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1406, 'end': 1414, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +606,17490790,Peripheral iron dextran induced degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in rat substantia nigra.,"Iron accumulation is considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. To demonstrate the relationship between peripheral iron overload and dopaminergic neuron loss in rat substantia nigra (SN), in the present study we used fast cyclic voltammetry, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunohistochemistry, Perls' iron staining, and high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detection to study the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons and increased iron content in the SN of iron dextran overloaded animals. The findings showed that peripheral iron dextran overload increased the iron staining positive cells and reduced the number of TH-immunoreactive neurons in the SN. As a result, dopamine release and content, as well as its metabolites contents were decreased in caudate putamen. Even more dramatic changes were found in chronic overload group. These results suggest that peripheral iron dextran can increase the iron level in the SN, where excessive iron causes the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons. The chronic iron overload may be more destructive to dopaminergic neurons than the acute iron overload.","[{'text': 'iron dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D007505'}, {'text': 'degeneration of dopaminergic neurons', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'Iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 94, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 164, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 236, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 363, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 418, 'end': 422, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'degeneration of dopaminergic neurons', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 515, 'end': 551, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 566, 'end': 570, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'iron dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D007505'}, {'text': 'iron dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 661, 'end': 673, 'mesh': 'D007505'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 697, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 802, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'iron dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1018, 'mesh': 'D007505'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1040, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1074, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'degeneration of dopaminergic neurons', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1140, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1217, 'end': 1221, 'mesh': 'D007501'}]" +607,16047871,Warfarin-induced leukocytoclastic vasculitis.,"Skin reactions associated with oral coumarin-derived anticoagulants are an uncommon occurrence.

Spinal cord ischemia was induced by aortic occlusion for 6 min with a balloon catheter. In a microdialysis study, 10 muL of saline (group C; n = 8) or 30 mug of morphine (group M; n = 8) was injected intrathecally (IT) 0.5 h after reflow, and 30 mug of morphine (group SM; n = 8) or 10 muL of saline (group SC; n = 8) was injected IT 0.5 h after sham operation. Microdialysis samples were collected preischemia, before IT injection, and at 2, 4, 8, 24, and 48 h of reperfusion (after IT injection). Second, we investigated the effect of IT MK-801 (30 mug) on the histopathologic changes in the spinal cord after morphine-induced spastic paraparesis. After IT morphine, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) glutamate concentration was increased in group M relative to both baseline and group C (P < 0.05). This increase persisted for 8 hrs. IT MK-801 significantly reduced the number of dark-stained alpha-motoneurons after morphine-induced spastic paraparesis compared with the saline group. These data indicate that IT morphine induces spastic paraparesis with a concomitant increase in CSF glutamate, which is involved in NMDA receptor activation. We suggest that opioids may be neurotoxic in the setting of spinal cord ischemia via NMDA receptor activation.","[{'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 25, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 140, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'spinal cord ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D020760'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-d-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 296, 'end': 316, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 318, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 350, 'end': 358, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'aortic occlusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 396, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D001157'}, {'text': 'Spinal cord ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 422, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D020760'}, {'text': 'aortic occlusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 458, 'end': 474, 'mesh': 'D001157'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 675, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1034, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'spastic paraparesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1070, 'mesh': 'D020336'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1089, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1121, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1258, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1338, 'end': 1346, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'spastic paraparesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1374, 'mesh': 'D020336'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1435, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'spastic paraparesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1471, 'mesh': 'D020336'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1516, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1539, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1606, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'spinal cord ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1645, 'mesh': 'D020760'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1650, 'end': 1654, 'mesh': 'D016202'}]" +609,12481039,"Reduced sodium channel density, altered voltage dependence of inactivation, and increased susceptibility to seizures in mice lacking sodium channel beta 2-subunits.","Sodium channel beta-subunits modulate channel gating, assembly, and cell surface expression in heterologous cell systems. We generated beta2(-/-) mice to investigate the role of beta2 in control of sodium channel density, localization, and function in neurons in vivo. Measurements of [(3)H]saxitoxin (STX) binding showed a significant reduction in the level of plasma membrane sodium channels in beta2(-/-) neurons. The loss of beta2 resulted in negative shifts in the voltage dependence of inactivation as well as significant decreases in sodium current density in acutely dissociated hippocampal neurons. The integral of the compound action potential in optic nerve was significantly reduced, and the threshold for action potential generation was increased, indicating a reduction in the level of functional plasma membrane sodium channels. In contrast, the conduction velocity, the number and size of axons in the optic nerve, and the specific localization of Na(v)1.6 channels in the nodes of Ranvier were unchanged. beta2(-/-) mice displayed increased susceptibility to seizures, as indicated by reduced latency and threshold for pilocarpine-induced seizures, but seemed normal in other neurological tests.

METHODS: This prospective study evaluated consecutive eligible seizure patients who had a plasma sample collected as part of their clinical evaluation. Plasma was tested for amphetamine and the cocaine metabolite benzoylecgonine using enzyme-mediated immunoassay methodology. Plasma samples with benzoylecgonine greater than 150 ng/mL or an amphetamine greater than 500 ng/mL were defined as positive. Patient demographics, history of underlying drug or alcohol-related seizure disorder, estimated time from seizure to sample collection, history or suspicion of cocaine or amphetamine abuse, results of clinical urine testing for drugs of abuse, and assay results were recorded without patient identifiers. RESULTS: Fourteen of 248 (5.6%, 95% CI 2.7%-8.5%) plasma samples were positive by immunoassay testing for benzoylecgonine and no samples (0%, 95% CI 0-1.2%) were positive for amphetamine. Positive test results were more common in patient visits where there was a history or suspicion of cocaine or amphetamine abuse (p < 0.0005). CONCLUSIONS: During this study period, routine plasma screening for cocaine and amphetamines in adult seizure patients had a low yield. As a result, routine plasma screening would yield few cases of stimulant drug in which there was neither a history nor suspicion of drug abuse in this population.","[{'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 196, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 238, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 430, 'end': 441, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 450, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'benzoylecgonine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'benzoylecgonine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 552, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 710, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 726, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 764, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'benzoylecgonine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1361, 'end': 1368, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'amphetamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1373, 'end': 1385, 'mesh': 'D000662'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'drug abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1561, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D019966'}]" +611,11099450,Evidence of functional somatotopy in GPi from results of pallidotomy.,"The objective of this study was to explore the functional anatomy of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) by studying the effects of unilateral pallidotomy on parkinsonian 'off' signs and levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID). We found significant positive correlations between the preoperative levodopa responsiveness of motor signs and the levodopa responsiveness of scores in timed tests (Core Assessment Program for Intracerebral Transplantations) in the contralateral limbs and the improvement in these scores after surgery, whereas there was no correlation with the improvement in LID. We also found a highly significant correlation (P: < 0.0001, r = 0.8) between the volume of the ventral lesion in the GPi and the improvement in LID in the contralateral limbs, whereas there was no correlation between the ventral volume and the improvement in parkinsonian 'off' signs. The volumes of the total lesion cylinder and the dorsal lesion did not correlate with the outcome of either dyskinesias or parkinsonian 'off' signs. The differential predictive value of levodopa responsiveness for the outcome of parkinsonian 'off' signs and LID and the different correlations of ventral lesion volume with dyskinesias and parkinsonian 'off' signs indicate that different anatomical or pathophysiological substrates may be responsible for the generation of parkinsonian 'off' signs and dyskinesias. Whereas cells in a wider area of the GPi may be implicated in parkinsonism, the ventral GPi seems to be crucial for the manifestation of LID. We suggest that our observations are additional proof of the functional somatotopy of the systems within the GPi that mediate parkinsonism and dyskinesias, especially along the dorsoventral trajectory used in pallidotomy. The outcome of pallidotomy in which the lesion involves the ventral and dorsal GPi could be the net effect of alteration in the activity of pathways which mediate different symptoms, and hence could be variable.","[{'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 227, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 256, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 273, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 286, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 360, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 407, 'end': 415, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 652, 'end': 655, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 802, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 917, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1066, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1172, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1204, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1266, 'end': 1277, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1294, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1456, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1520, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1595, 'end': 1598, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1726, 'end': 1738, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1743, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +612,11027904,Pain responses in methadone-maintained opioid abusers.,"Providing pain management for known opioid abusers is a challenging clinical task, in part because little is known about their pain experience and analgesic requirements. This study was designed to describe pain tolerance and analgesic response in a sample of opioid addicts stabilized in methadone-maintenance (MM) treatment (n = 60) in comparison to matched nondependent control subjects (n = 60). By using a placebo-controlled, two-way factorial design, tolerance to cold-pressor (CP) pain was examined, both before and after oral administration of therapeutic doses of common opioid (hydromorphone 2 mg) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (ketorolac 10 mg) analgesic agents. Results showed that MM individuals were significantly less tolerant of CP pain than control subjects, replicating previous work. Analgesic effects were significant neither for medication nor group. These data indicate that MM opioid abusers represent a pain-intolerant subset of clinical patients. Their complaints of pain should be evaluated seriously and managed aggressively.","[{'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 4, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 65, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 182, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 262, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'opioid addicts', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 315, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D009293'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 344, 'end': 353, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 543, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'hydromorphone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 643, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D004091'}, {'text': 'ketorolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 699, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D020910'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 808, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain-intolerant', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 987, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1052, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'D010146'}]" +613,10193809,Urine N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase--a marker of tubular damage?,"BACKGROUND: Although an indicator of renal tubular dysfunction, an increased urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) activity might reflect increased lysosomal activity in renal tubular cells. METHODS: Puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) was administered to Sprague Dawley rats to induce proteinuria. Total protein, albumin, NAG activity and protein electrophoretic pattern were assessed in daily urine samples for 33 days. The morphological appearance of the kidneys was examined on days three, four, six, eight and thirty three and the NAG isoenzyme patterns on days zero, four, eight and thirty three. RESULTS: Following intravenous PAN urine volume and urine NAG activity increased significantly by day two, but returned to normal by day four. After day four all treated animals exhibited a marked rise in urine albumin, total protein excretion and NAG activity. Electrophoresis showed a generalised increase in middle and high molecular weight urine proteins from day four onwards. Protein droplets first appeared prominent in tubular cells on day four. Peak urine NAG activity and a change in NAG isoenzyme pattern coincided with both the peak proteinuria and the reduction in intracellular protein and NAG droplets (day six onwards). CONCLUSIONS: This animal model demonstrates that an increase in lysosomal turnover and hence urine NAG activity, occurs when increased protein is presented to the tubular cells. Urine NAG activity is thus a measure of altered function in the renal tubules and not simply an indicator of damage.","[{'text': 'renal tubular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D005198'}, {'text': 'Puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 302, 'end': 305, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 357, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 705, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D011507'}]" +614,9214597,Over expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptor during the development of estrogen-induced rat pituitary tumors may mediate estrogen-initiated tumor angiogenesis.,"Estrogens, which have been associated with several types of human and animal cancers, can induce tumor angiogenesis in the pituitary of Fischer 344 rats. The mechanistic details of tumor angiogenesis induction, during estrogen carcinogenesis, are still unknown. To elucidate the role of estrogen in the regulation of tumor angiogenesis in the pituitary of female rats, the density of blood vessels was analysed using factor VIII related antigen (FVIIIRAg) immunohistochemistry and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor/vascular permeability factor (VEGF/VPF) was examined by Western blot and immunohistochemical analysis. The expression of VEGF receptor (VEGFR-2/Flk-1/KDR) was also examined by immunohistochemistry. The results demonstrated that 17beta-estradiol (E2) induces neovascularization, as well as the growth and enlargement of blood vessels after 7 days of exposure. The high tumor angiogenic potential was associated with an elevated VEGF/VPF protein expression in the E2 exposed pituitary of ovariectomized (OVEX) rats. VEGF/VPF and FVIIIRAg immunohistochemistry and endothelial specific lectin (UEA1) binding studies, indicate that the elevation of VEGF protein expression initially occurred in both blood vessels and non-endothelial cells. After 15 days of E2 exposure, VEGF/VPF protein expression, in the non-endothelial cell population, sharply declined and was restricted to the blood vessels. The function of non-endothelial-derived VEGF is not clear. Furthermore, immunohistochemical studies demonstrated that VEGFR-2 (flk-1/KDR), expression was elevated significantly in the endothelial cells of microblood vessels after 7 days of E2 exposure. These findings suggest that over expression of VEGF and its receptor (VEGFR-2) may play an important role in the initial step of the regulation of estrogen induced tumor angiogenesis in the rat pituitary.","[{'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 97, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'pituitary tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D010911'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 147, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 166, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'Estrogens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 283, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 367, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'carcinogenesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 413, 'end': 427, 'mesh': 'D063646'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 473, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 503, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': '17beta-estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 948, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 966, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1088, 'end': 1093, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1182, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1473, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1853, 'end': 1855, 'mesh': 'D004958'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2013, 'end': 2021, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2030, 'end': 2035, 'mesh': 'D009369'}]" +615,7604176,Pravastatin-associated myopathy.

Thus, the nephrotoxicity induced by CSA has a different pathogenetic mechanism.","[{'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 88, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'CSA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'renal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 184, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CSA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'CSA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 381, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 427, 'end': 438, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 458, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'amphothericin B', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 493, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D000666'}, {'text': 'ketoconazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D007654'}, {'text': 'CSA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 617, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 644, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'CSA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 690, 'end': 693, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 694, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 720, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CSA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 749, 'mesh': 'D016572'}]" +620,3220106,Receptor mechanisms of nicotine-induced locomotor hyperactivity in chronic nicotine-treated rats.,"Rats were pretreated with saline or nicotine (1.5 mg/kg per day) by subcutaneously implanting each animal with an Alzet osmotic mini-pump which continuously released saline or nicotine for 1, 5 and 14 days. At the end of each pretreatment period, animals were used for (i) determining their locomotor response to acutely injected nicotine (0.2 mg/kg, s.c.) and (ii) measuring the density of L-[3H]nicotine and [3H]spiperone binding sites in the striatum. We observed no changes in nicotine-induced locomotor response, striatal L-[3H]nicotine and [3H]spiperone binding in the animals pretreated with nicotine for 1 day. In rats which were pretreated with nicotine for 5 days, there was a significant increase in the nicotine-stimulated locomotor response which was associated with an increase in the number of L-[3H]nicotine binding sites and also with an elevated dopamine (DA) level in the striatum. The number of striatal [3H]spiperone binding sites was not affected. In animals pretreated with nicotine for 14 days, the nicotine-induced locomotor response remained to be potentiated. However, this response was correlated with an elevated number of striatal [3H]spiperone binding sites, whereas the number of striatal L-[3H]nicotine binding sites and the striatal DA level were normal. These results suggest that chronic nicotine-treated rats develop locomotor hyperactivity in response to nicotine initially due to increases of both the density of nicotinic receptors and DA concentration, followed by inducing DA receptor supersensitivity in the striatum.","[{'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'locomotor hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 63, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 75, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 134, 'end': 142, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 428, 'end': 436, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 495, 'end': 503, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'spiperone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 521, 'mesh': 'D013134'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 579, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 631, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'spiperone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D013134'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 697, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 752, 'end': 760, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 821, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 913, 'end': 921, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 970, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 974, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'spiperone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D013134'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1103, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1121, 'end': 1129, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'spiperone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1272, 'mesh': 'D013134'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1365, 'end': 1367, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1430, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'locomotor hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1491, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1613, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +621,2722224,Hydrocortisone-induced hypertension in humans: pressor responsiveness and sympathetic function.,"Oral hydrocortisone increases blood pressure and enhances pressor responsiveness in normal human subjects. We studied the effects of 1 week of oral hydrocortisone (200 mg/day) on blood pressure, cardiac output, total peripheral resistance, forearm vascular resistance, and norepinephrine spillover to plasma in eight healthy male volunteers. Although diastolic blood pressure remained unchanged, systolic blood pressure increased from 119 to 135 mm Hg (SED +/- 3.4, p less than 0.01), associated with an increased cardiac output (5.85-7.73 l/min, SED +/- 0.46, p less than 0.01). Total peripheral vascular resistance fell from 15.1 to 12.2 mm Hg/l/min (SED +/- 1.03, p less than 0.05). Resting forearm vascular resistance remained unchanged, but the reflex response to the cold pressor test was accentuated, the rise in resistance increasing from 10.5 mm Hg/ml/100 ml/min (R units) before treatment to 32.6 R units after treatment (SED +/- 6.4, p less than 0.025). The rise in forearm vascular resistance accompanying intra-arterial norepinephrine (25, 50, and 100 ng/min) was also significantly greater after hydrocortisone, increasing from an average of 14.9 +/- 2.4 R units before treatment to 35.1 +/- 5.5 R units after hydrocortisone (SED +/- 6.0, p less than 0.05). A shift to the left in the dose-response relation and fall in threshold suggested increased sensitivity to norepinephrine after treatment. Measurement of resting norepinephrine spillover rate to plasma and norepinephrine uptake indicated that overall resting sympathetic nervous system activity was not increased.

The direct nephrotoxic effects of a single dose of 15 mg of suprofen were compared in the recirculating isolated rat kidney perfused with cell-free buffer with or without the addition of 5 mg/dL of uric acid. There were no significant differences in renal sodium excretion, oxygen consumption, or urinary flow rates in kidneys perfused with suprofen compared with the drug-free control groups. In contrast, a significant decline in glomerular filtration rate was found after the introduction of suprofen to the kidney perfused with uric acid; no changes were found with suprofen in the absence of uric acid. A significant decrease in the baseline excretion rate of uric acid was found in rats given suprofen, compared with drug-free controls. However, the fractional excretion of uric acid was unchanged between the groups over the experimental period. In summary, suprofen causes acute declines in renal function, most likely by directly altering the intrarenal distribution of uric acid.","[{'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 66, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 119, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 221, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 270, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'uric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 466, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 484, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 551, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 705, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'uric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 780, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'uric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 807, 'end': 816, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'uric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 875, 'end': 884, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 909, 'end': 917, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'uric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 990, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D014527'}, {'text': 'suprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D013496'}, {'text': 'acute declines in renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1091, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'uric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D014527'}]" +623,1610717,Cocaine-induced brainstem seizures and behavior.,"A variety of abnormal sensory/motor behaviors associated with electrical discharges recorded from the bilateral brainstem were induced in adult WKY rats by mechanical (electrode implants) and DC electrical current stimulations and by acute and chronic administration of cocaine. The electrode implant implicated one side or the other of the reticular system of the brainstem but subjects were not incapacitated by the stimulations. Cocaine (40 mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously for an acute experiment and subsequent 20 mg/kg doses twice daily for 3 days in a chronic study. Cocaine generated more abnormal behaviors in the brainstem perturbation group, especially the electrically perturbated subjects. The abnormal behaviors were yawning, retrocollis, hyperactivity, hypersensitivity, ""beating drum"" behavior, squealing, head bobbing, circling, sniffing, abnormal posturing, and facial twitching. Shifts in the power frequency spectra of the discharge patterns were noted between quiet and pacing behavioral states. Hypersensitivity to various auditory, tactile, and visual stimulation was present and shifts in the brainstem ambient power spectral frequency occurred in response to tactile stimulation. These findings suggest that the brainstem generates and propagates pathological discharges that can be elicited by mechanical and DC electrical perturbation. Cocaine was found to activate the discharge system and thus induce abnormal behaviors that are generated at the discharge site and at distant sites to which the discharge propagates. Cognitive functions may also be involved since dopaminergic and serotonergic cellular elements at the brainstem level are also implicated.","[{'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 319, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 481, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 625, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 819, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'Hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1421, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +624,873132,Increased sulfation and decreased 7alpha-hydroxylation of deoxycholic acid in ethinyl estradiol-induced cholestasis in rats.,"Deoxycholic acid conjugation, transport capacity, and metabolism were compared in control and ethinyl estradiol-treated rats. Control rats were found to have a lower capacity to transport deoxycholic acid than taurodeoxycholic acid, and both were decreased by ethinyl estradiol treatment. During [24-14C]sodium deoxycholate infusion, [14C]biliary bile acid secretion increased, but bile flow did not change significantly in either control or ethinyl estradiol-treated rats. Ethinyl estradiol-treated animals excreted significantly less 14C as taurocholic acid than did control animals, consistent with an impairment of 7alpha-hydroxylation of taurodeoxycholic acid. Ethinyl estradiol treatment did not impair conjugation of deoxycholic acid, but did result in an increase in sulfation of taurodeoxycholic acid from 1.5% in controls to nearly 4.0% (P less than 0.01). These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the rat has a poorer tolerance for deoxycholic acid than do certain other species. Furthermore, the rat converts deoxycholic acid, a poor choleretic, to taurocholic acid, a good choleretic. When this conversion is impaired with ethinyl estradiol treatment, sulfation may be an important alternate pathway for excretion of this potentially harmful bile acid.","[{'text': 'deoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D003840'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'cholestasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D002779'}, {'text': 'Deoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D003840'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 219, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'deoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 313, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D003840'}, {'text': 'taurodeoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 335, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D013657'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 385, 'end': 402, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'sodium deoxycholate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 429, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D003840'}, {'text': 'bile acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 472, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 567, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'Ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'taurocholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 668, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D013656'}, {'text': 'taurodeoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 768, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D013657'}, {'text': 'Ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 791, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'deoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D003840'}, {'text': 'taurodeoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 913, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D013657'}, {'text': 'deoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D003840'}, {'text': 'deoxycholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1175, 'mesh': 'D003840'}, {'text': 'taurocholic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1199, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'D013656'}, {'text': 'ethinyl estradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1291, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'bile acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1393, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D001647'}]" +625,783197,"Effects of ouabain on myocardial oxygen supply and demand in patients with chronic coronary artery disease. A hemodynamic, volumetric, and metabolic study in patients without heart failure.","The effects of digitalis glycosides on myocardial oxygen supply and demand are of particular interest in the presence of obstructive coronary artery disease, but have not been measured previously in man. We assessed the effects of ouabain (0.015 mg/kg body weight) on hemodynamic, volumetric, and metabolic parameters in 11 patients with severe chronic coronary artery disease without clinical congestive heart failure. Because the protocol was long and involved interventions which might affect the determinations, we also studied in nine patients using an identical protocol except that ouabain administration was omitted. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and left ventricular end-diastolic volume fell in each patient given ouabain, even though they were initially elevated in only two patients. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure fell from 11.5+/-1.4 (mean+/-SE) to 5.6+/-0.9 mm Hg (P less than 0.001) and left ventricular end-diastolic volume fell from 100+/-17 to 82+/-12 ml/m2 (P less than 0.01) 1 h after ouabain infusion was completed. The maximum velocity of contractile element shortening increased from 1.68+/-0.11 ml/s to 2.18+/-0.21 muscle-lengths/s (P less than 0.05) and is consistent with an increase in contractility. No significant change in these parameters occurred in the control patients. No significant change in myocardial oxygen consumption occurred after ouabain administration but this may be related to a greater decrease in mean arterial pressure in the ouabain patients than in the control patients. We conclude that in patients with chronic coronary artery disease who are not in clinical congestive heart failure left ventricular end-diastolic volume falls after ouabain administration even when it is initially normal.

The fixed dose of carboplatin at levels 1 through 4 was given to achieve an area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of 5 using the Calvert formula. In levels 5 and 6 the carboplatin dose was targeted at AUCs of 6 and 7.5, respectively, combined with a fixed paclitaxel dose of 185 mg/m2. To date, 30 previously untreated patients, all with a good performance status (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group 0 to 2) have been entered into this ongoing study. The dose-limiting toxicity of the combination was myelosuppression (leukopenia, granulocytopenia, and thrombocytopenia). Neurotoxicity was largely moderate. So far, 14 patients are evaluable for response; of these, eight (57%) showed objective (complete or partial) response and disease stabilized in six patients. No patient had disease progression. We conclude that the combination of paclitaxel 185 mg/m2 administered as a 3-hour infusion followed immediately by a 1-hour infusion of carboplatin at an AUC of 6 can be administered safely in a 21-day schedule in the outpatient setting.

We characterized tacrolimus side effects that warranted discontinuation of the drug, and outcomes after conversion. Of 388 liver recipients who received tacrolimus as primary immunosuppression, 70 required conversion to CyA. We recorded indication for conversion, whether conversion was early or late after transplantation, tacrolimus dose and trough blood level at conversion, and incidence of rejection after conversion. Conversion was early in 29 patients (41.4%) and late in 41 (58.6%). Indications for early conversion were neurotoxicity (20), (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) (5), nephrotoxicity (3), gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity (6), and cardiomyopathy (1), and for late conversion were neurotoxicity (15), IDDM (12), nephrotoxicity (3), GI toxicity (5), hepatotoxicity (6), post-transplant lmphoproliferate disease (PTLD) (2), cardiomyopathy (1), hemolytic anemia (1), and pruritus (1). All early-conversion patients showed improvement/resolution of symptoms. Among late-conversion patients, 37 (90.2%) had improvement/resolution; in 4 (9.8%), adverse effects persisted. The overall rejection rate was 30%. Sixty-two patients (88.6%) are alive with functioning grafts 686 +/- 362 days (range, 154-1433 days) after conversion. When tacrolimus side effects are unresponsive to dose reduction, conversion to CyA can be accomplished safely, with no increased risk of rejection and excellent long-term outcome.","[{'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 259, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 395, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 566, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 771, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': '(insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 791, 'end': 828, 'mesh': 'D003922'}, {'text': 'IDDM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 830, 'end': 834, 'mesh': 'D003922'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 841, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 861, 'end': 891, 'mesh': 'D005767'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 901, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 950, 'end': 963, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'IDDM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 970, 'end': 974, 'mesh': 'D003922'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 981, 'end': 995, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'GI toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1001, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D005767'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'post-transplant lmphoproliferate disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'PTLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1091, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'pruritus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1137, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D011537'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1495, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D016559'}]" +629,3535719,Relative efficacy and toxicity of netilmicin and tobramycin in oncology patients.,"We prospectively compared the efficacy and safety of netilmicin sulfate or tobramycin sulfate in conjunction with piperacillin sodium in 118 immunocompromised patients with presumed severe infections. The two treatment regimens were equally efficacious. Nephrotoxicity occurred in a similar proportion in patients treated with netilmicin and tobramycin (17% vs 11%). Ototoxicity occurred in four (9.5%) of 42 netilmicin and piperacillin and in 12 (22%) of 54 tobramycin and piperacillin-treated patients. Of those evaluated with posttherapy audiograms, three of four netilmicin and piperacillin-treated patients had auditory thresholds return to baseline compared with one of nine tobramycin and piperacillin-treated patients. The number of greater than or equal to 15-dB increases in auditory threshold as a proportion of total greater than or equal to 15-dB changes (increases and decreases) was significantly lower in netilmicin and piperacillin- vs tobramycin and piperacillin-treated patients (18 of 78 vs 67 of 115).

To determine whether there was a temporal relationship between VPA-associated oxidative stress and hepatotoxicity, adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated ip with VPA (500 mg/kg) or 0.9% saline (vehicle) once daily for 2, 4, 7, 10, or 14 days. Oxidative stress was assessed by determining plasma and liver levels of 15-F(2t)-IsoP, lipid hydroperoxides (LPO), and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs). Plasma and liver 15-F(2t)-IsoP were elevated and reached a plateau after day 2 of VPA treatment compared to control. Liver LPO levels were not elevated until day 7 of treatment (1.8-fold versus control, p < 0.05). Liver and plasma TBARs were not increased until 14 days (2-fold vs. control, p < 0.05). Liver toxicity was evaluated based on serum levels of alpha-glutathione S-transferase (alpha-GST) and by histology. Serum alpha-GST levels were significantly elevated by day 4, which corresponded to hepatotoxicity as shown by the increasing incidence of inflammation of the liver capsule, necrosis, and steatosis throughout the study. The liver levels of beta-oxidation metabolites of VPA were decreased by day 14, while the levels of 4-ene-VPA and (E)-2,4-diene-VPA were not elevated throughout the study. Overall, these findings indicate that VPA treatment results in oxidative stress, as measured by levels of 15-F(2t)-IsoP, which precedes the onset of necrosis, steatosis, and elevated levels of serum alpha-GST.","[{'text': 'Valproic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'liver toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'valproic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'valproic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 141, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 156, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': '15-F(2t)-isoprostane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 297, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'C075750'}, {'text': '15-F(2t)-IsoP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 319, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'C075750'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 401, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 434, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 502, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': '15-F(2t)-IsoP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 655, 'end': 668, 'mesh': 'C075750'}, {'text': 'lipid hydroperoxides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D008054'}, {'text': 'LPO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D008054'}, {'text': 'thiobarbituric acid reactive substances', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 702, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D017392'}, {'text': 'TBARs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D017392'}, {'text': '15-F(2t)-IsoP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 768, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'C075750'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'LPO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 874, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D008054'}, {'text': 'TBARs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 982, 'end': 987, 'mesh': 'D017392'}, {'text': 'Liver toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1067, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1113, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1307, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'steatosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1365, 'mesh': 'D005234'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1441, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': '4-ene-VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1488, 'end': 1497, 'mesh': 'C045022'}, {'text': '2,4-diene-VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'C556631'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1598, 'end': 1601, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': '15-F(2t)-IsoP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1666, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'C075750'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1709, 'end': 1717, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'steatosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1719, 'end': 1728, 'mesh': 'D005234'}]" +633,15811908,Pheochromocytoma unmasked by amisulpride and tiapride.,"OBJECTIVE: To describe the unmasking of pheochromocytoma in a patient treated with amisulpride and tiapride. CASE SUMMARY: A 42-year-old white man developed acute hypertension with severe headache and vomiting 2 hours after the first doses of amisulpride 100 mg and tiapride 100 mg. Both drugs were immediately discontinued, and the patient recovered after subsequent nicardipine and verapamil treatment. Abdominal ultrasound showed an adrenal mass, and postoperative histologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma. DISCUSSION: Drug-induced symptoms of pheochromocytoma are often associated with the use of substituted benzamide drugs, but the underlying mechanism is unknown. In our case, use of the Naranjo probability scale indicated a possible relationship between the hypertensive crisis and amisulpride and tiapride therapy. CONCLUSIONS: As of March 24, 2005, this is the first reported case of amisulpride- and tiapride-induced hypertensive crisis in a patient with pheochromocytoma. Physicians and other healthcare professionals should be aware of this potential adverse effect of tiapride and amisulpride.","[{'text': 'Pheochromocytoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D010673'}, {'text': 'amisulpride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'C012052'}, {'text': 'tiapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 45, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D063325'}, {'text': 'pheochromocytoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 95, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D010673'}, {'text': 'amisulpride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'C012052'}, {'text': 'tiapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D063325'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 218, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 243, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 256, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'amisulpride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 298, 'end': 309, 'mesh': 'C012052'}, {'text': 'tiapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 321, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D063325'}, {'text': 'nicardipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 423, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D009529'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'pheochromocytoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 573, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D010673'}, {'text': 'pheochromocytoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 628, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D010673'}, {'text': 'benzamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 694, 'end': 703, 'mesh': 'C037689'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 848, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'amisulpride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 872, 'end': 883, 'mesh': 'C012052'}, {'text': 'tiapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 888, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'D063325'}, {'text': 'amisulpride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 976, 'end': 987, 'mesh': 'C012052'}, {'text': 'tiapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 993, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D063325'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'pheochromocytoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1048, 'end': 1064, 'mesh': 'D010673'}, {'text': 'tiapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D063325'}, {'text': 'amisulpride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1188, 'mesh': 'C012052'}]" +634,15764424,"Quantitative drug levels in stimulant psychosis: relationship to symptom severity, catecholamines and hyperkinesia.","To examine the relationship between quantitative stimulant drug levels, catecholamines, and psychotic symptoms, nineteen patients in a psychiatric emergency service with a diagnosis of amphetamine- or cocaine-induced psychosis were interviewed, and plasma and urine were collected for quantitative assays of stimulant drug and catecholamine metabolite levels.

He initially presented to hospital after six hours with mild hypotension and was treated with activated charcoal and intravenous fluids. Eighteen hours after the overdose he had two generalised tonic-clonic seizures. The patient remained unresponsive with junctional bradycardia, unrecordable blood pressure, and then became asystolic. He was resuscitated with high dose (13.5 g) intravenous calcium and adrenaline (epinephrine). He required inotropic support and temporary pacing over the next 48 hours. This case suggests there is a role for aggressive high dose intravenous calcium therapy in severe diltiazem overdose, particularly with the onset of asystole.

A PubMed Central and EMBASE search was conducted up to July 2007. The reference lists of identified papers were examined for further trials. Of 425 studies identified, 20 were included in the meta-analysis (840 patients). Dexmedetomidine was associated with a trend towards improved cardiac outcomes; all-cause mortality (OR 0.27, 95% CI 0.01-7.13, p = 0.44), non-fatal myocardial infarction (OR 0.26, 95% CI 0.04-1.60, p = 0.14), and myocardial ischaemia (OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.26-1.63, p = 0.36).

Since 1989, she had been suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with renal involvement and undergone periods of treatment with azathioprine and cyclophosphamide. Additional therapy with chloroquine (CQ) was started because of arthralgia. At the same time, slightly increased creatine kinase (CK) levels were noted. Myositis was suspected, and the patient was treated with steroids. The CK increase persisted, however, and she developed progressive muscular weakness and muscular atrophy. Routine controls revealed markedly elevated CK levels of 1,700 U/l. The neurological and electrophysiological findings were not typical of myositis. Thus, muscle biopsy of the deltoid muscle was performed in order to exclude polymyositis or toxic myopathy. As it revealed chloroquine-induced myopathy, medication was stopped. Discriminating between primary SLE-induced affection of the musculoskeletal system and drug-induced side effects is important for appropriate treatment of SLE patients.","[{'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'systemic lupus erythematosus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'chloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D002738'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 193, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'systemic lupus erythematosus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 243, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'SLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 273, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'renal involvement', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 283, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'azathioprine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 341, 'end': 353, 'mesh': 'D001379'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 358, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'chloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 400, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D002738'}, {'text': 'CQ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 413, 'end': 415, 'mesh': 'D002738'}, {'text': 'arthralgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 440, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D018771'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 489, 'end': 497, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'Myositis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 529, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D009220'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 586, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'muscular weakness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 662, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D018908'}, {'text': 'muscular atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 684, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D009133'}, {'text': 'myositis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 841, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D009220'}, {'text': 'polymyositis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 927, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D017285'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 949, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'chloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 974, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D002738'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 994, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'SLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'affection of the musculoskeletal system', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1110, 'mesh': 'D009140'}, {'text': 'SLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1186, 'mesh': 'D008180'}]" +641,12093990,Intravenous ribavirin treatment for severe adenovirus disease in immunocompromised children.,"BACKGROUND: Adenovirus is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the immunocompromised host. The incidence of severe adenovirus disease in pediatrics is increasing in association with growing numbers of immunocompromised children, where case fatality rates as high as 50% to 80% have been reported. There are no approved antiviral agents with proven efficacy for the treatment of severe adenovirus disease, nor are there any prospective randomized, controlled trials of potentially useful anti-adenovirus therapies. Apparent clinical success in the treatment of severe adenovirus disease is limited to a few case reports and small series. Experience is greatest with intravenous ribavirin and cidofovir. Ribavirin, a guanosine analogue, has broad antiviral activity against both RNA and DNA viruses, including documented activity against adenovirus in vitro. Ribavirin is licensed in aerosol form for the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus infection, and orally in combination with interferon to treat hepatitis C. Intravenous ribavirin is the treatment of choice for infection with hemorrhagic fever viruses. The most common adverse effect of intravenous ribavirin is reversible mild anemia. The use of cidofovir in severe adenovirus infection has been limited by adverse effects, the most significant of which is nephrotoxicity. OBJECTIVE: We report our experience with intravenous ribavirin therapy for severe adenovirus disease in a series of immunocompromised children and review the literature. DESIGN/METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 5 children treated with intravenous ribavirin for documented severe adenovirus disease. Two patients developed adenovirus hemorrhagic cystitis after cardiac and bone marrow transplants, respectively. The bone marrow transplant patient also received intravenous cidofovir for progressive disseminated disease. An additional 3 children developed adenovirus pneumonia; 2 were neonates, 1 of whom had partial DiGeorge syndrome. The remaining infant had recently undergone a cardiac transplant. Intravenous ribavirin was administered on a compassionate-use protocol. RESULTS: Complete clinical recovery followed later by viral clearance was observed in 2 children: the cardiac transplant recipient with adenovirus hemorrhagic cystitis and the immunocompetent neonate with adenovirus pneumonia. The remaining 3 children died of adenovirus disease. Intravenous ribavirin therapy was well tolerated. Use of cidofovir in 1 child was associated with progressive renal failure and neutropenia. DISCUSSION: Our series of patients is representative of the spectrum of immunocompromised children at greatest risk for severe adenovirus disease, namely solid-organ and bone marrow transplant recipients, neonates, and children with immunodeficiency. Although intravenous ribavirin was not effective for all children with severe adenovirus disease in this series or in the literature, therapy is unlikely to be of benefit if begun late in the course of the infection. Early identification, eg by polymerase chain reaction of those patients at risk of disseminated adenovirus disease may permit earlier antiviral treatment and better evaluation of therapeutic response. CONCLUSIONS: Two of 5 children with severe adenovirus disease treated with intravenous ribavirin recovered. The availability of newer rapid diagnostic techniques, such as polymerase chain reaction, may make earlier, more effective treatment of adenovirus infection possible. Given the seriousness and increasing prevalence of adenovirus disease in certain hosts, especially children, a large, multicenter clinical trial of potentially useful anti-adenoviral therapies, such as intravenous ribavirin, is clearly required to demonstrate the most effective and least toxic therapy.","[{'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 43, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 220, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 490, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 672, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'cidofovir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 796, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'C059262'}, {'text': 'Ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 807, 'end': 816, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'guanosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D006151'}, {'text': 'Ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'respiratory syncytial virus infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1021, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D018357'}, {'text': 'hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1122, 'mesh': 'D006526'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'infection with hemorrhagic fever viruses', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D006482'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1265, 'end': 1274, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1300, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'cidofovir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1313, 'end': 1322, 'mesh': 'C059262'}, {'text': 'adenovirus infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1333, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1424, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1493, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1540, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1713, 'end': 1722, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1745, 'end': 1763, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'cidofovir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1938, 'end': 1947, 'mesh': 'C059262'}, {'text': 'DiGeorge syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2082, 'end': 2099, 'mesh': 'D004062'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2179, 'end': 2188, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2499, 'end': 2517, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2531, 'end': 2540, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'cidofovir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2576, 'end': 2585, 'mesh': 'C059262'}, {'text': 'progressive renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2617, 'end': 2642, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2647, 'end': 2658, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2787, 'end': 2805, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'immunodeficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2893, 'end': 2909, 'mesh': 'D007153'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2932, 'end': 2941, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2989, 'end': 3007, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3117, 'end': 3126, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3224, 'end': 3242, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3372, 'end': 3390, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 3416, 'end': 3425, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'adenovirus infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3573, 'end': 3593, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'adenovirus disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3655, 'end': 3673, 'mesh': 'D000257'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 3818, 'end': 3827, 'mesh': 'D012254'}]" +642,3962737,Hepatotoxicity of amiodarone.,"Amiodarone has proved very effective in the treatment of otherwise resistant cardiac tachyarrhythmias.

Pre-treatment with ketamine produced cross-tolerance to morphine, whereas pretreatment with morphine did not induce cross-tolerance to ketamine but rather augmented the cataleptic response; this augmentation was attributed to residual morphine in the brain. The present studies explored the duration of the loss of righting reflex induced by sub-effective doses of ketamine and morphine, administered simultaneously. There was mutual potentiation between sub-effective doses of ketamine and morphine, but sub-effective doses of ketamine partly antagonized fully-effective doses of morphine. Latency to the loss of righting reflex, rigidity and behavior on recovery, reflected the relative predominance of ketamine or morphine in each combination. Naloxone inhibited the induced cataleptic effects. The degree and time course of development of tolerance to daily administration of sub-effective dose combinations of ketamine and morphine were similar. Rats, tolerant to ketamine-dominant combinations, were cross-tolerant to both drugs, while those tolerant to morphine-dominant combinations were cross-tolerant to morphine but showed either no cross-tolerance or an augmented response to ketamine. While the mutual potentiation, antagonism and tolerance suggest common mechanisms for the induced catalepsy, differences in latency, rigidity and behavior, asymmetry of cross-tolerance and a widely-different ID50 for naloxone would argue against an action at a single opioid site.","[{'text': 'Catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 168, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 181, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'analgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 198, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D000699'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 261, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 290, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 326, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 369, 'end': 377, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'cataleptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 403, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 725, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 762, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 815, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 865, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 951, 'end': 959, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 981, 'end': 989, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'cataleptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1012, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1157, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1162, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1203, 'end': 1211, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1302, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1348, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1430, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1565, 'end': 1573, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1649, 'end': 1657, 'mesh': 'D009270'}]" +644,19642243,Acute renal failure in patients with AIDS on tenofovir while receiving prolonged vancomycin course for osteomyelitis.,Renal failure developed after a prolonged course of vancomycin therapy in 2 patients who were receiving tenofovir disoproxil fumarate as part of an antiretroviral regimen.

Recently published neuroimaging data suggest a common pathophysiology associated with a variety of chemotherapy agents and modes of administration. METHODS: We reviewed the medical literature for single reports and case series of patients presenting with stroke-like episodes while receiving systemic or intrathecal chemotherapy. We only included studies providing detailed neuroimaging data. Patients with cerebrovascular accidents were excluded. RESULTS: We identified 27 reports of toxic leukoencephalopathy in patients treated with methotrexate (intrathecal, systemic), 5-fluorouracil and its derivative carmofur, and capecitabine. Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) of all patients revealed well demarcated hyperintense lesions within the subcortical white matter of the cerebral hemispheres and the corpus callosum, corresponding to areas of decreased proton diffusion on apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps (available in 21/27 patients). Lesions exceeded the confines of adjacent vascular territories. Complete resolution of symptoms within 1-4 days was accompanied by normalisation of ADC abnormalities. However, fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequences frequently revealed persistent white matter abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS: Several pathophysiological models of delayed leukoencephalopathy after exposure to intrathecal or systemic chemotherapy have been proposed. DWI findings in this cohort are indicative of cytotoxic oedema within cerebral white matter and lend support to an at least partially reversible metabolic derangement as the basis for this syndrome.","[{'text': 'leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 8, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 33, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 110, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'cerebrovascular accident', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 140, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 262, 'end': 274, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'leukaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 289, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D007938'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 555, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'cerebrovascular accidents', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 707, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 791, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 836, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 874, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'carmofur', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 908, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'C017367'}, {'text': 'capecitabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 922, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'C110904'}, {'text': 'lesions within the subcortical white matter', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1023, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'white matter abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1510, 'end': 1536, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'cytotoxic oedema within cerebral white matter', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'D001929'}]" +646,16725121,Down-regulation of norepinephrine transporter function induced by chronic administration of desipramine linking to the alteration of sensitivity of local-anesthetics-induced convulsions and the counteraction by co-administration with local anesthetics.,"Alterations of norepinephrine transporter (NET) function by chronic inhibition of NET in relation to sensitization to seizures induce by cocaine and local anesthetics were studied in mice. Daily administration of desipramine, an inhibitor of the NET, for 5 days decreased [(3)H]norepinephrine uptake in the P2 fractions of hippocampus but not cortex, striatum or amygdalae. Co-administration of lidocaine, bupivacaine or tricaine with desipramine reversed this effect. Daily treatment of cocaine increased [(3)H]norepinephrine uptake into the hippocampus. Daily administration of desipramine increased the incidence of appearance of lidocaine-induced convulsions and decreased that of cocaine-induced convulsions. Co-administration of lidocaine with desipramine reversed the changes of convulsive activity of lidocaine and cocaine induced by repeated administration of desipramine. These results suggest that down-regulation of hippocampal NET induced by chronic administration of desipramine may be relevant to desipramine-induced sensitization of lidocaine convulsions. Inhibition of Na(+) channels by local anesthetics may regulate desipramine-induced down-regulation of NET function. Repeated administration of cocaine induces up-regulation of hippocampal NET function. Desipramine-induced sensitization of lidocaine seizures may have a mechanism distinct from kindling resulting from repeated administration of cocaine.","[{'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 268, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 371, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 390, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 466, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 531, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 659, 'end': 670, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'tricaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 674, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'C003636'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 688, 'end': 699, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 741, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 765, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 844, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 904, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 938, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 954, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1003, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1062, 'end': 1071, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1245, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1265, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1311, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1341, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1388, 'end': 1399, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1468, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'Desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1527, 'end': 1538, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1564, 'end': 1573, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1582, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1669, 'end': 1676, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +647,16629641,Definition and management of anemia in patients infected with hepatitis C virus.,"Chronic infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) can progress to cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and end-stage liver disease. The current best treatment for HCV infection is combination therapy with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. Although this regimen produces sustained virologic responses (SVRs) in approximately 50% of patients, it can be associated with a potentially dose-limiting hemolytic anemia. Hemoglobin concentrations decrease mainly as a result of ribavirin-induced hemolysis, and this anemia can be problematic in patients with HCV infection, especially those who have comorbid renal or cardiovascular disorders. In general, anemia can increase the risk of morbidity and mortality, and may have negative effects on cerebral function and quality of life. Although ribavirin-associated anemia can be reversed by dose reduction or discontinuation, this approach compromises outcomes by significantly decreasing SVR rates. Recombinant human erythropoietin has been used to manage ribavirin-associated anemia but has other potential disadvantages. Viramidine, a liver-targeting prodrug of ribavirin, has the potential to maintain the virologic efficacy of ribavirin while decreasing the risk of hemolytic anemia in patients with chronic hepatitis C.","[{'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 29, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'infected with hepatitis C virus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 48, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D006526'}, {'text': 'Chronic infection with hepatitis C virus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 144, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'hepatocellular carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 155, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'end-stage liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D058625'}, {'text': 'HCV infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 241, 'end': 254, 'mesh': 'D006526'}, {'text': 'interferon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 293, 'end': 303, 'mesh': 'D007372'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 491, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 550, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 568, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 588, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'HCV infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 631, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D006526'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 728, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 866, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 887, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1079, 'end': 1088, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'Viramidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1146, 'end': 1156, 'mesh': 'C026956'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1187, 'end': 1196, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1263, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1327, 'end': 1346, 'mesh': 'D019698'}]" +648,16006300,Calcium carbonate toxicity: the updated milk-alkali syndrome; report of 3 cases and review of the literature.,"OBJECTIVE: To describe 3 patients with calcium carbonate-induced hypercalcemia and gain insights into the cause and management of the milk-alkali syndrome. METHODS: We report the clinical and laboratory data in 3 patients who presented with severe hypercalcemia (corrected serum calcium > or = 14 mg/dL) and review the pertinent literature on milk-alkali syndrome. RESULTS: The 3 patients had acute renal insufficiency, relative metabolic alkalosis, and low parathyroid hormone (PTH), PTH-related peptide, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D concentrations. No malignant lesion was found. Treatment included aggressive hydration and varied amounts of furosemide. The 2 patients with the higher serum calcium concentrations received pamidronate intravenously (60 and 30 mg, respectively), which caused severe hypocalcemia. Of the 3 patients, 2 were ingesting acceptable doses of elemental calcium (1 g and 2 g daily, respectively) in the form of calcium carbonate. In addition to our highlighted cases, we review the history, classification, pathophysiologic features, and treatment of milk-alkali syndrome and summarize the cases reported from early 1995 to November 2003. CONCLUSION: Milk-alkali syndrome may be a common cause of unexplained hypercalcemia and can be precipitated by small amounts of orally ingested calcium carbonate in susceptible persons. Treatment with hydration, furosemide, and discontinuation of the calcium and vitamin D source is adequate. Pamidronate treatment is associated with considerable risk for hypocalcemia, even in cases of initially severe hypercalcemia.","[{'text': 'Calcium carbonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D002119'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 18, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'milk-alkali syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'calcium carbonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D002119'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 175, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'milk-alkali syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 358, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 389, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'milk-alkali syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 453, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'acute renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 503, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'metabolic alkalosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 539, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'D000471'}, {'text': '1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 620, 'end': 643, 'mesh': 'C097949'}, {'text': 'furosemide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 753, 'end': 763, 'mesh': 'D005665'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 802, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'pamidronate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 834, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'C019248'}, {'text': 'hypocalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 910, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D006996'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 990, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'calcium carbonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1047, 'end': 1064, 'mesh': 'D002119'}, {'text': 'milk-alkali syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1187, 'end': 1207, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'Milk-alkali syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1307, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'calcium carbonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1419, 'end': 1436, 'mesh': 'D002119'}, {'text': 'furosemide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1497, 'mesh': 'D005665'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1533, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'vitamin D', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1538, 'end': 1547, 'mesh': 'D014807'}, {'text': 'Pamidronate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1579, 'mesh': 'C019248'}, {'text': 'hypocalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1643, 'mesh': 'D006996'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1679, 'end': 1692, 'mesh': 'D006934'}]" +649,11705128,Management strategies for ribavirin-induced hemolytic anemia in the treatment of hepatitis C: clinical and economic implications.,"OBJECTIVES: Recently published studies have demonstrated increased efficacy and cost-effectiveness of combination therapy with interferon and alpha-2b/ribavirin compared with interferon-alpha monotherapy in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Combination therapy is associated with a clinically important adverse effect: ribavirin-induced hemolytic anemia (RIHA). The objective of this study was to evaluate the direct health-care costs and management of RIHA during treatment of CHC in a clinical trial setting. METHODS: A systematic literature review was conducted to synthesize information on the incidence and management of RIHA. Decision-analytic techniques were used to estimate the cost of treating RIHA. Uncertainty was evaluated using sensitivity analyses. RESULTS: RIHA, defined as a reduction in hemoglobin to less than 100 g/L, occurs in approximately 7% to 9% of patients treated with combination therapy. The standard of care for management of RIHA is reduction or discontinuation of the ribavirin dosage. We estimated the direct cost of treating clinically significant RIHA to be 170 per patient receiving combination therapy per 48-week treatment course (range 68- 692). The results of the one-way sensitivity analyses ranged from 57 to 317. In comparison, the cost of 48 weeks of combination therapy is 16,459. CONCLUSIONS: The direct cost of treating clinically significant RIHA is 1% ( 170/ 16,459) of drug treatment costs. Questions remain about the optimal dose of ribavirin and the incidence of RIHA in a real-world population. Despite these uncertainties, this initial evaluation of the direct cost of treating RIHA provides an estimate of the cost and management implications of this clinically important adverse effect.","[{'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D006526'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 281, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'interferon-alpha', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 305, 'end': 321, 'mesh': 'D016898'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 354, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'CHC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 375, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 459, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 477, 'end': 493, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 495, 'end': 499, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 593, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'CHC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 618, 'end': 621, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 766, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 844, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 917, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1140, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1222, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1629, 'end': 1638, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1660, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'RIHA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1777, 'end': 1781, 'mesh': 'D000743'}]" +650,6540303,Effects of amine pretreatment on ketamine catatonia in pinealectomized or hypophysectomized animals.,"The present studies were designed to clarify the role of catecholamines and pineal idolamines on ketamine-induced catatonia in the intact, pinealectomized or hypophysectomized chick and rat. In the pinealectomized chick, pretreatment with dopamine increased the duration of catatonia (DOC) after ketamine, but pretreatment with norepinephrine did not. The pineal indolamines exhibited mixed actions. Serotonin and N-acetyl serotonin which augmented ketamine DOC, did not do so in the absence of the pineal gland, whereas melatonin potentiated the ketamine DOC in both the intact and pinealectomized chick. Ketamine was more potent in the hypophysectomized chick and the circadian rhythm noted in the intact chick was absent; furthermore, melatonin did not augment the ketamine DOC whereas dopamine continued to do so. This study did not demonstrate a species difference regarding the role of the amines on the pineal in spite of the immature blood-brain barrier in the young chick and the intact barrier in the rat. In addition, these data indicate a direct role of the pituitary in the augmentation of ketamine DOC induced by melatonin. Furthermore, dopamine appeared to act on systems more closely involved with the induction of ketamine catatonia rather than directly on the pituitary.","[{'text': 'amine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D000588'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'catatonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D002389'}, {'text': 'catecholamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 158, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 198, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'catatonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 215, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D002389'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 340, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'catatonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 375, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D002389'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 397, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 429, 'end': 443, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'Serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'N-acetyl serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 515, 'end': 533, 'mesh': 'C006389'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 550, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 622, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 707, 'end': 715, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 869, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 890, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'amines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 997, 'end': 1003, 'mesh': 'D000588'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1260, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1332, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'catatonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1341, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D002389'}]" +651,3057041,"Multicenter, double-blind, multiple-dose, parallel-groups efficacy and safety trial of azelastine, chlorpheniramine, and placebo in the treatment of spring allergic rhinitis.","Azelastine, a novel antiallergic medication, was compared with chlorpheniramine maleate and placebo for efficacy and safety in the treatment of spring allergic rhinitis in a multicenter, double-blind, multiple-dose, parallel-groups study. One hundred fifty-five subjects participated. Subjects ranged in age from 18 to 60 years of age and had at least a 2-year history of spring allergic rhinitis, confirmed by positive skin test to spring aeroallergens. Medications were given four times daily; the azelastine groups received 0.5, 1.0, or 2.0 mg in the morning and evening with placebo in the early and late afternoon; the chlorpheniramine group received 4.0 mg four times daily. Daily subject symptom cards were completed during a screening period to assess pretreatment symptoms and during a 4-week treatment period while subjects received study medications. Individual symptoms, total symptoms, and major symptoms were compared to determine efficacy of medication. Elicited, volunteered, and observed adverse experiences were recorded for each subject and compared among groups. Vital signs, body weights, serum chemistry values, complete blood cell counts, urine studies, and electrocardiograms were obtained for each subject and compared among groups. Symptoms relief in the group receiving the highest concentration of azelastine (2.0 mg twice daily) was statistically greater than in the placebo group during all weeks of the study. Lower doses of azelastine were statistically more effective than placebo only during portions of the first 3 weeks of the study. In contrast, although the chlorpheniramine group did have fewer symptoms than the placebo group during the study, the difference never reached statistical significance during any week of the study. There were no serious side effects in any of the treatment groups. Drowsiness and altered taste perception were increased significantly over placebo only in the high-dose azelastine group.

The effect was attenuated by both the NK1 receptor selective antagonist RP 67,580 and the NK2 receptor selective antagonist SR 48,968, given intra-arterially, suggesting that it was mediated by stimulation of both NK1 and NK2 receptors. Intra-arterially given PGE2 produced a distinct increase in bladder pressure before initiating a micturition reflex, indicating that the PG had a direct contractant effect on the detrusor smooth muscle. The effect of intra-arterial PGE2 could not be blocked by intra-arterial RP 67,580 or SR 48,968, which opens the possibility that the micturition reflex elicited by intra-arterial PGE2 was mediated by pathways other than the reflex initiated when the PG was given intravesically. The present results thus suggest that intra-arterial PGE2, given near the bladder, may initiate micturition in the normal rat chiefly by directly contracting the smooth muscle of the detrusor. However, when given intravesically, PGE2 may stimulate micturition by releasing tachykinins from nerves in and/or immediately below the urothelium. These tachykinins, in turn, initiate a micturition reflex by stimulating NK1 and NK2 receptors. Prostanoids may, via release of tachykinins, contribute to both urge and bladder hyperactivity seen in inflammatory conditions of the lower urinary tract.","[{'text': 'Prostaglandin E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'bladder hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'tachykinins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 89, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D015320'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin (PG) E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 191, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'RP 67,580', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 352, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'C071693'}, {'text': 'SR 48,968', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'C073839'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 540, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 654, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 749, 'end': 753, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'RP 67,580', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 793, 'end': 802, 'mesh': 'C071693'}, {'text': 'SR 48,968', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 806, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'C073839'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 900, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 971, 'end': 973, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1057, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'tachykinins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D015320'}, {'text': 'tachykinins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1347, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D015320'}, {'text': 'Prostanoids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1437, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'tachykinins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1480, 'mesh': 'D015320'}, {'text': 'bladder hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1510, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D053201'}]" +655,6942642,"Thiazide diuretics, hypokalemia and cardiac arrhythmias.","Thiazide diuretics are widely accepted as the cornerstone of antihypertensive treatment programs.

In 13 patients we observed the effects of HCTZ therapy (100 mg daily) on the occurrence of PVC's during rest as well as during static and dynamic exercise. During rest we observed 0.6 +/- 0.08 PVC beats/min +/- SEM and during static and dynamic exercise 0.6 +/- 0.06 and 0.8 +/- 0.15, respectively. Corresponding figures during HCTZ therapy 100 mg daily were 1.4 +/- 0.1, 3.6 +/- 0.7 and 5.7 4/- 0.8, respectively. The occurrence of PVC's correlated significantly with the fall in serum K+ observed r = 0.72, p less than 0.001. In conclusion we found that thiazide diuretics cause hypokalemia and depletion of body potassium. The more profound hypokalemia, the greater the propensity for the occurrence of PVC's.","[{'text': 'Thiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D049971'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'cardiac arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 36, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'Thiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 57, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D049971'}, {'text': 'Hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 155, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'thiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D049971'}, {'text': 'diastolic hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 313, 'end': 335, 'mesh': 'C563897'}, {'text': 'hydrochlorothiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 341, 'end': 360, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'HCTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 557, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 637, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 761, 'end': 762, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 902, 'end': 906, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1188, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1347, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'thiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1424, 'mesh': 'D049971'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1441, 'end': 1452, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1484, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1515, 'mesh': 'D007008'}]" +656,3732088,"Diuretics, potassium and arrhythmias in hypertensive coronary disease.","It has been proposed that modest changes in plasma potassium can alter the tendency towards cardiac arrhythmias. If this were so, patients with coronary artery disease might be especially susceptible. Thus, myocardial electrical excitability was measured in patients with mild essential hypertension and known coronary artery disease after 8 weeks of treatment with a potassium-conserving diuretic (amiloride) and a similar period on a potassium-losing diuretic (chlorthalidone) in a randomised study. Plasma potassium concentrations were on average 1 mmol/L lower during the chlorthalidone phase compared to amiloride therapy. Blood pressure and volume states as assessed by bodyweight, plasma renin and noradrenaline (norepinephrine) concentrations were similar on the 2 regimens. Compared to amiloride treatment, the chlorthalidone phase was associated with an increased frequency of ventricular ectopic beats (24-hour Holter monitoring) and a higher Lown grading, increased upslope and duration of the monophasic action potential, prolonged ventricular effective refractory period, and increased electrical instability during programmed ventricular stimulation. The above results indicate that because potassium-losing diuretic therapy can increase myocardial electrical excitability in patients with ischaemic heart disease, even minor falls in plasma potassium concentrations are probably best avoided in such patients.","[{'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'coronary disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 53, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D003327'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'cardiac arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 163, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 215, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 358, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 381, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'amiloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 470, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'D000584'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 507, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'chlorthalidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 534, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D002752'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'chlorthalidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 647, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D002752'}, {'text': 'amiloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 689, 'mesh': 'D000584'}, {'text': 'noradrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 776, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 791, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'amiloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 866, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D000584'}, {'text': 'chlorthalidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 891, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D002752'}, {'text': 'ventricular ectopic beats', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 958, 'end': 983, 'mesh': 'D018879'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1286, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'ischaemic heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1376, 'end': 1399, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'D011188'}]" +657,2893236,GABA involvement in naloxone induced reversal of respiratory paralysis produced by thiopental.,"No agent is yet available to reverse respiratory paralysis produced by CNS depressants, such as general anesthetics. In this study naloxone reversed respiratory paralysis induced by thiopental in rats. 25 mg/kg, i.v. thiopental produced anesthesia without altering respiratory rate, increased GABA, decreased glutamate, and had no effect on aspartate or glycine levels compared to controls in rat cortex and brain stem. Pretreatment of rats with thiosemicarbazide for 30 minutes abolished the anesthetic action as well as the respiratory depressant action of thiopental. 50 mg/kg, i.v. thiopental produced respiratory arrest with further increase in GABA and decrease in glutamate again in cortex and brain stem without affecting any of the amino acids studied in four regions of rat brain. Naloxone (2.5 mg/kg, i.v.) reversed respiratory paralysis, glutamate and GABA levels to control values in brain stem and cortex with no changes in caudate or cerebellum. These data suggest naloxone reverses respiratory paralysis produced by thiopental and involves GABA in its action.","[{'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 4, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'respiratory paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D012133'}, {'text': 'thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'respiratory paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 132, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D012133'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'respiratory paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D012133'}, {'text': 'thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 277, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 312, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 388, 'end': 392, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 436, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 449, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'thiosemicarbazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 541, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'C005151'}, {'text': 'thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 654, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 681, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'respiratory arrest', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 701, 'end': 719, 'mesh': 'D012131'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 745, 'end': 749, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 766, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'amino acids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 836, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'Naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'respiratory paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 922, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D012133'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 945, 'end': 954, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 959, 'end': 963, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'respiratory paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1093, 'end': 1114, 'mesh': 'D012133'}, {'text': 'thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'D005680'}]" +658,2533791,National project on the prevention of mother-to-infant infection by hepatitis B virus in Japan.,"In Japan, a nationwide prevention program against mother-to-infant infection by hepatitis B virus (HBV) started in 1985.

On electrocardiogram, episodes of atrial tachyarrhythmia were recorded immediately after swallowing; 24-hour Holter monitoring recorded several events. The arrhythmia resolved after therapy with atenolol, but recurred a year later. The patient noticed that before these episodes he had been using an inhalator of salbutamol. After stopping the beta-agonist, and after a week with the atenolol, the arrhythmia disappeared. DISCUSSION: Swallowing-induced atrial tachyarrhythmia (SIAT) is a rare phenomenon. Fewer than 50 cases of SIAT have been described in the literature. This article summarizes all the cases published, creating a comprehensive review of the current knowledge and approach to SIAT. It discusses demographics, clinical characteristics and types of arrhythmia, postulated mechanisms of SIAT, and different treatment possibilities such as medications, surgery, and radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA). CONCLUSION: Salbutamol is presented here as a possible trigger for SIAT. Although it is difficult to define causality in a case report, it is logical to think that a beta-agonist like salbutamol (known to induce tachycardia) may be the trigger of adrenergic reflexes originating in the esophagus while swallowing and that a beta-blocker such as atenolol (that blocks the adrenergic activity) may relieve it.","[{'text': 'atrial tachyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'atrial tachyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 218, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 340, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 379, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D001262'}, {'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 497, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D001262'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 582, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'atrial tachyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 637, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'SIAT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 661, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'SIAT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 712, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'SIAT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 878, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 949, 'end': 959, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'SIAT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 986, 'end': 990, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'Salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'SIAT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1172, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1299, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1317, 'end': 1328, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1458, 'mesh': 'D001262'}]" +661,20510337,Coenzyme Q10 treatment ameliorates acute cisplatin nephrotoxicity in mice.,"The nephroprotective effect of coenzyme Q10 was investigated in mice with acute renal injury induced by a single i.p. injection of cisplatin (5 mg/kg). Coenzyme Q10 treatment (10 mg/kg/day, i.p.) was applied for 6 consecutive days, starting 1 day before cisplatin administration. Coenzyme Q10 significantly reduced blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels which were increased by cisplatin. Coenzyme Q10 significantly compensated deficits in the antioxidant defense mechanisms (reduced glutathione level and superoxide dismutase activity), suppressed lipid peroxidation, decreased the elevations of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, nitric oxide and platinum ion concentration, and attenuated the reductions of selenium and zinc ions in renal tissue resulted from cisplatin administration. Also, histopathological renal tissue damage mediated by cisplatin was ameliorated by coenzyme Q10 treatment. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that coenzyme Q10 significantly decreased the cisplatin-induced overexpression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, nuclear factor-kappaB, caspase-3 and p53 in renal tissue. It was concluded that coenzyme Q10 represents a potential therapeutic option to protect against acute cisplatin nephrotoxicity commonly encountered in clinical practice.","[{'text': 'Coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'acute renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 149, 'end': 167, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 206, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'Coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 227, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 329, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'Coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 355, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'blood urea nitrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 390, 'end': 409, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 420, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 462, 'end': 471, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'Coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 473, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'reduced glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 590, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 681, 'end': 686, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 687, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 710, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'platinum', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 727, 'end': 735, 'mesh': 'D010984'}, {'text': 'selenium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 788, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D012643'}, {'text': 'zinc', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 801, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D015032'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 841, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'renal tissue damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 891, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 952, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1031, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1060, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1118, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'coenzyme Q10', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1221, 'mesh': 'C024989'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +662,20164825,Metformin prevents experimental gentamicin-induced nephropathy by a mitochondria-dependent pathway.,"The antidiabetic drug metformin can diminish apoptosis induced by oxidative stress in endothelial cells and prevent vascular dysfunction even in nondiabetic patients. Here we tested whether it has a beneficial effect in a rat model of gentamicin toxicity. Mitochondrial analysis, respiration intensity, levels of reactive oxygen species, permeability transition, and cytochrome c release were assessed 3 and 6 days after gentamicin administration. Metformin treatment fully blocked gentamicin-mediated acute renal failure. This was accompanied by a lower activity of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase, together with a decrease of lipid peroxidation and increase of antioxidant systems. Metformin also protected the kidney from histological damage 6 days after gentamicin administration. These in vivo markers of kidney dysfunction and their correction by metformin were complemented by in vitro studies of mitochondrial function. We found that gentamicin treatment depleted respiratory components (cytochrome c, NADH), probably due to the opening of mitochondrial transition pores. These injuries, partly mediated by a rise in reactive oxygen species from the electron transfer chain, were significantly decreased by metformin. Thus, our study suggests that pleiotropic effects of metformin can lessen gentamicin nephrotoxicity and improve mitochondrial homeostasis.","[{'text': 'Metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'vascular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 216, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D014652'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 335, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 346, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 521, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'Metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 582, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 602, 'end': 621, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'Metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 784, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 858, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'kidney dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 910, 'end': 928, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1042, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1240, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1315, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1388, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1400, 'end': 1410, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1411, 'end': 1425, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +663,20042557,Sedation depth during spinal anesthesia and the development of postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture repair.,"OBJECTIVE: To determine whether limiting intraoperative sedation depth during spinal anesthesia for hip fracture repair in elderly patients can decrease the prevalence of postoperative delirium. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We performed a double-blind, randomized controlled trial at an academic medical center of elderly patients (>or=65 years) without preoperative delirium or severe dementia who underwent hip fracture repair under spinal anesthesia with propofol sedation. Sedation depth was titrated using processed electroencephalography with the bispectral index (BIS), and patients were randomized to receive either deep (BIS, approximately 50) or light (BIS, >or=80) sedation. Postoperative delirium was assessed as defined by Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Third Edition Revised) criteria using the Confusion Assessment Method beginning at any time from the second day after surgery. RESULTS: From April 2, 2005, through October 30, 2008, a total of 114 patients were randomized. The prevalence of postoperative delirium was significantly lower in the light sedation group (11/57 [19%] vs 23/57 [40%] in the deep sedation group; P=.02), indicating that 1 incident of delirium will be prevented for every 4.7 patients treated with light sedation. The mean +/- SD number of days of delirium during hospitalization was lower in the light sedation group than in the deep sedation group (0.5+/-1.5 days vs 1.4+/-4.0 days; P=.01). CONCLUSION: The use of light propofol sedation decreased the prevalence of postoperative delirium by 50% compared with deep sedation. Limiting depth of sedation during spinal anesthesia is a simple, safe, and cost-effective intervention for preventing postoperative delirium in elderly patients that could be widely and readily adopted.","[{'text': 'hip fracture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 117, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D006620'}, {'text': 'hip fracture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 238, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D006620'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 498, 'end': 506, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'dementia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 517, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D003704'}, {'text': 'hip fracture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 540, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D006620'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 589, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'Mental Disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 904, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1332, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1453, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1619, 'end': 1627, 'mesh': 'D015742'}]" +664,19944333,Sorafenib-induced acute myocardial infarction due to coronary artery spasm.,"A 65-year-old man with advanced renal cell carcinoma was admitted due to continuing chest pain at rest. Two weeks before his admission, sorafenib had been started. He was diagnosed with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction by laboratory data and electrocardiogram. Enhanced heart magnetic resonance imaging also showed subendocardial infarction. However, there was no stenosis in coronary arteries on angiography. Coronary artery spasm was induced by a provocative test. Cessation of sorafenib and administration of Ca-channel blocker and nitrates ameliorated his symptoms, but relapse occurred after resumption of sorafenib. Addition of oral nicorandil reduced his symptoms and maintained stable angina status. We report the first case of sorafenib-induced coronary artery spasm. Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor that targets signaling pathways necessary for cellular proliferation and survival.

Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has significantly reduced morbidity and mortality of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), but has resulted in an increase in cardiac and skeletal myopathies. METHODS AND RESULTS: In order to investigate whether the HAART component zidovudine (3'-azido-2',3'-deoxythymidine; AZT) triggers the Fas-dependent cell-death pathway and cause cytoskeletal disruption in a murine model of DCM, 8-week-old transgenic (expressing Fas ligand in the myocardium: FasL Tg) and non-transgenic (NTg) mice received water ad libitum containing different concentrations of AZT (0, 0.07, 0.2, and 0.7 mg/ml). After 6 weeks, cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography and morphology was assessed by histopathologic and immunohistochemical methods. NTg and untreated FasL Tg mice showed little or no change in cardiac structure or function. In contrast, AZT-treated FasL Tg mice developed cardiac dilation and depressed cardiac function in a dose-dependent manner, with concomitant inflammatory infiltration of both ventricles. These changes were associated with an increased sarcolemmal expression of Fas and FasL, as well as increased activation of caspase 3, translocation of calpain 1 to the sarcolemma and sarcomere, and increased numbers of cells undergoing apoptosis. These were associated with changes in dystrophin and cardiac troponin I localization, as well as loss of sarcolemmal integrity. CONCLUSIONS: The expression of Fas ligand in the myocardium, as identified in HIV-positive patients, might increase the susceptibility to HAART-induced cardiomyopathy due to activation of apoptotic pathways, resulting in cardiac dilation and dysfunction.","[{'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 61, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'Dilated cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 101, 'end': 123, 'mesh': 'D002311'}, {'text': 'DCM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D002311'}, {'text': 'myocarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 134, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D009205'}, {'text': 'HIV-infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 160, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 211, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'acquired immunodeficiency syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 348, 'end': 382, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 384, 'end': 388, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'cardiac and skeletal myopathies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 426, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'C538496'}, {'text': 'zidovudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 532, 'end': 542, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': ""3'-azido-2',3'-deoxythymidine"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 544, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 575, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'DCM', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 681, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D002311'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 854, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'cardiac dilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1174, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D002311'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1840, 'end': 1854, 'mesh': 'D009202'}]" +667,17074608,Valproate-induced chorea and encephalopathy in atypical nonketotic hyperglycinemia.,"Nonketotic hyperglycinemia is a disorder of amino acid metabolism in which a defect in the glycine cleavage system leads to an accumulation of glycine in the brain and other body compartments.

In this study, we developed a new hypoxia-responsive reporter vector using a hypoxia-responsive element of the 5' vascular endothelial growth factor untranslated region and generated a novel hypoxia-sensing transgenic rat. We then applied this animal model to the detection of tubulointerstitial hypoxia in the diseased kidney. With this model, we were able to identify diffuse cortical hypoxia in the puromycin aminonucleoside-induced nephrotic syndrome and focal and segmental hypoxia in the remnant kidney model. Expression of the hypoxia-responsive transgene increased throughout the observation period, reaching 2.2-fold at 2 weeks in the puromycin aminonucleoside model and 2.6-fold at 4 weeks in the remnant kidney model, whereas that of vascular endothelial growth factor showed a mild decrease, reflecting distinct behaviors of the two genes. The degree of hypoxia showed a positive correlation with microscopic tubulointerstitial injury in both models. Finally, we identified the localization of proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive, ED-1-positive, and terminal dUTP nick-end labeled-positive cells in the hypoxic cortical area in the remnant kidney model.

Worldwide, over 650 patients have been transplanted in the context of phase I and II clinical trials. The results are encouraging enough to begin randomised phase III trials. However, as predicted, significant transplant-related morbidity and mortality have been observed. This is primarily due to complications related to either the stage of the disease at transplant or due to infections. The number of deaths related to cardiac toxicity is low. However, caution is required when cyclophosphamide or anthracyclines such as mitoxantrone are used in patients with a possible underlying heart damage, for example, systemic sclerosis patients.

Unfractionated heparin (UH) is currently the substitute for selected patients. Low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) offers theoretical advantages over UH, but is not currently considered in clinical guidelines as an alternative to UH in patients with prosthetic valves. HYPOTHESIS: The aim of the present study was to review the data accumulated so far on the use of LMWH in this patient population and to discuss its applicability in common practice. METHODS: For this paper, the current medical literature on LMWH in patients with mechanical heart valves was extensively reviewed. RESULTS: There were eight series and six case reports. None of the studies was randomized, and only one was prospective. Data to establish the thromboembolic risk were incomplete. After excluding case reports, the following groups were constructed: (a) short-term administration, after valve insertion (n = 212); (b) short-term, perioperative (noncardiac)/periprocedural (n = 114); (c) long-term, due to intolerance to OAC (n = 16); (d) long-term, in pregnancy (n = 10). The incidence rate of thromboembolism was 0.9% for all the studies and 0.5, 0, 20, and 0% in groups a, b, c, and d, respectively; for hemorrhage, the overall rate was 3.4% (3.8, 2.6, 10, and 0% for the respective groups). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with mechanical heart valves, short-term LMWH therapy compares favorably with UH. Data on mid- and long-term LMWH administration in these patients are sparse. Further randomized studies are needed to confirm the safety and precise indications for the use of LMWH in patients with mechanical heart valves.","[{'text': 'Low-molecular-weight heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'Unfractionated heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 303, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'UH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'Low-molecular-weight heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 382, 'end': 410, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'LMWH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 412, 'end': 416, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'UH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 453, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'UH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 533, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'LMWH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 669, 'end': 673, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'LMWH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'thromboembolic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1378, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'LMWH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1644, 'end': 1648, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'UH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1681, 'end': 1683, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'LMWH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1712, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'LMWH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1861, 'end': 1865, 'mesh': 'D006495'}]" +673,12042105,Topiramate-induced nephrolithiasis.,"Topiramate is a recently developed antiepileptic medication that is becoming more widely prescribed because of its efficacy in treating refractory seizures.

Selective distal tubular epithelial toxicity seems to be responsible for the profound potassium wasting that is a major clinical side effect of treatment with AmB. Potassium depletion also potentiates the tubular toxicity of AmB. This study was designed to assess the ability of spironolactone to reduce potassium requirements and to prevent hypokalemia in neutropenic patients on AmB treatment. METHODS: In this study 26 patients with various hematological disorders were randomized to receive either intravenous AmB alone or AmB and oral spironolactone 100 mg twice daily when developing a proven or suspected fungal infection. RESULTS: Patients receiving concomitant AmB and spironolactone had significantly higher plasma potassium levels than those receiving AmB alone (P = 0.0027). Those patients receiving AmB and spironolactone required significantly less potassium supplementation to maintain their plasma potassium within the normal range (P = 0.022). Moreover, urinary potassium losses were significantly less in patients receiving AmB and spironolactone than those receiving AmB alone (P = 0.040).

Excitotoxicity leading to neuronal cell death in the affected areas is a major consequence of seizures at the cellular level. In this respect, little is known about the role of DA receptors in the occurrence of epilepsy-induced neuronal cell death. Here we analyze the occurrence of seizures and neurotoxicity in D2R -/- mice treated with the cholinergic agonist pilocarpine. We compared these results with those previously obtained with kainic acid (KA), a potent glutamate agonist. Importantly, D2R -/- mice develop seizures at doses of both drugs that are not epileptogenic for WT littermates and show greater neurotoxicity. However, pilocarpine-induced seizures result in a more widespread neuronal death in both WT and D2R -/- brains in comparison to KA. Thus, the absence of D2R lowers the threshold for seizures induced by both glutamate and acetylcholine. Moreover, the dopaminergic control of epilepsy-induced neurodegeneration seems to be mediated by distinct interactions of D2R signaling with these two neurotransmitters.","[{'text': 'Dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'Dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 107, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 117, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'epileptic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 202, 'end': 220, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'Excitotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 265, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 345, 'end': 353, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 428, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 462, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 534, 'end': 542, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 547, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'kainic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 689, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'KA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 702, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 716, 'end': 725, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 769, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 864, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 888, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 908, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'KA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1007, 'end': 1009, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1113, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1161, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'neurodegeneration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1187, 'mesh': 'D019636'}]" +676,11838826,Treatment of risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia with a dopamine agonist in children.,"BACKGROUND: Risperidone, a potent antagonist of both serotonergic (5HT2A) and dopaminergic D2 receptors is associated with hyperprolactinemia in adults and children. Chronically elevated prolactin levels in children with prolactinomas may be associated with arrested growth and development resulting in either delayed puberty or short stature. These possibilities stress the importance of developing a safe and effective approach to drug-induced hyperprolactinemia in youth. We report the successful treatment of risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia with cabergoline in youth. METHODS: We undertook a retrospective case review of four children with risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia treated with cabergoline. RESULTS: Four males (age 6-11 years) with Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (fourth edition) bipolar disorder or psychoses, with risperidone-induced elevations in serum prolactin levels (57.5-129 ng/mL, normal 5-15 ng/mL), were treated with cabergoline (mean dose 2.13 +/- 0.09 mg/week). When serum prolactin levels normalized in all four subjects (mean 11.2 +/- 10.9 ng/mL), the cabergoline dose was reduced to 1 mg/week in three of four subjects. The mean duration of therapy with cabergoline was 523.5 +/- 129.7 days, and the mean duration of therapy with risperidone was 788.5 +/- 162.5 days. Cabergoline was well tolerated without adverse effects. CONCLUSIONS: Cabergoline may be useful for the treatment of risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia in youth; however, further research is needed.","[{'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 33, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'Risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'prolactinomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 310, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'delayed puberty', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 399, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D011628'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 535, 'end': 553, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 602, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 622, 'end': 640, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'cabergoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 646, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'C047047'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 740, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 778, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'cabergoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'C047047'}, {'text': 'Mental Disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 884, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'bipolar disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 918, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'psychoses', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 938, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'cabergoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1066, 'end': 1077, 'mesh': 'C047047'}, {'text': 'cabergoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'C047047'}, {'text': 'cabergoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1308, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'C047047'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1384, 'end': 1395, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'Cabergoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'C047047'}, {'text': 'Cabergoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1491, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'C047047'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1538, 'end': 1549, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D006966'}]" +677,11467664,Cholestatic jaundice associated with the use of metformin.,"We report a patient who developed cholestatic jaundice shortly after initiation of treatment with metformin hydrochloride.

The current study investigated the visual fields and visual electrophysiology of eight patients with known vigabatrin-attributed visual field loss, three of whom were reported previously. Six of the patients were no longer receiving vigabatrin. METHODS: The central and peripheral fields were examined with the Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer. Full visual electrophysiology, including flash electroretinography (ERG), pattern electroretinography, multifocal ERG using the VERIS system, electro-oculography, and flash and pattern visual evoked potentials, was undertaken. RESULTS: Seven patients showed marked visual field constriction with some sparing of the temporal visual field. The eighth exhibited concentric constriction. Most electrophysiological responses were usually just within normal limits; two patients had subnormal Arden electro-oculography indices; and one patient showed an abnormally delayed photopic b wave. However, five patients showed delayed 30-Hz flicker b waves, and seven patients showed delayed oscillatory potentials. Multifocal ERG showed abnormalities that sometimes correlated with the visual field appearance and confirmed that the deficit occurs at the retinal level. CONCLUSION: Marked visual field constriction appears to be associated with vigabatrin therapy. The field defects and some electrophysiological abnormalities persist when vigabatrin therapy is withdrawn.","[{'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 120, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'visual field constriction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 167, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'visual field constriction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 190, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 246, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 383, 'end': 393, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'visual field loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 405, 'end': 422, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 509, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'visual field constriction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 884, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'visual field constriction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1497, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1553, 'end': 1563, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1648, 'end': 1658, 'mesh': 'D020888'}]" +679,11063349,Conversion to rapamycin immunosuppression in renal transplant recipients: report of an initial experience.,"BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of RAPA conversion in patients undergoing cyclosporine (CsA) or tacrolimus (Tac) toxicity. METHODS: Twenty renal transplant recipients were switched to fixed dose rapamycin (RAPA) (5 mg/day) 0 to 204 months posttransplant. Drug monitoring was not initially used to adjust doses. The indications for switch were chronic CsA or Tac nephrotoxicity (12), acute CsA or Tac toxicity (3), severe facial dysmorphism (2), posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) in remission (2), and hepatotoxicity in 1. Follow-up is 7 to 24 months. RESULTS: In the 12 patients switched because of chronic nephrotoxicity there was a significant decrease in serum creatinine [233+/-34 to 210+/-56 micromol/liter (P<0.05) at 6 months]. Facial dysmorphism improved in two patients. No relapse of PTLD was observed. Five patients developed pneumonia (two Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, one infectious mononucleosis with polyclonal PTLD lung infiltrate) and two had bronchiolitis obliterans. There were no deaths. RAPA was discontinued in four patients, because of pneumonia in two, PTLD in one, and oral aphtous ulcers in one. RAPA levels were high (>15 ng/ml) in 7 of 13 (54%) patients. CONCLUSIONS: RAPA conversion provides adequate immunosuppression to enable CsA withdrawal. However, when converting patients to RAPA drug levels should be monitored to avoid over-immunosuppression and adequate antiviral and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia prophylaxis should be given.","[{'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 14, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'RAPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 210, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 232, 'end': 242, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'Tac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 249, 'end': 257, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'RAPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 342, 'end': 346, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'Tac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 497, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 498, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 525, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'Tac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 532, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 536, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'facial dysmorphism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 557, 'end': 575, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 581, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'PTLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 626, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 654, 'end': 668, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 774, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 817, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'Facial dysmorphism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 888, 'end': 906, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'PTLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 947, 'end': 951, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'pneumonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 990, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D011014'}, {'text': 'Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1005, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D011020'}, {'text': 'infectious mononucleosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1041, 'end': 1065, 'mesh': 'D007244'}, {'text': 'PTLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'bronchiolitis obliterans', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1116, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'D001989'}, {'text': 'RAPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'pneumonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1224, 'mesh': 'D011014'}, {'text': 'PTLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'aphtous ulcers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D013281'}, {'text': 'RAPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1282, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'RAPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1352, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1417, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'RAPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1467, 'end': 1471, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1593, 'mesh': 'D011020'}]" +680,10091616,Worsening of levodopa-induced dyskinesias by motor and mental tasks.,"Ten patients who had Parkinson's disease with disabling dyskinesia were included in this study to evaluate the role of mental (mental calculation) and motor (flexion/extension of right fingers, flexion/extension of left fingers, flexion/extension of the neck, speaking aloud) tasks on the worsening of peak-dose dyskinesia following administration of an effective single dose of apomorphine.

Earlier observations that ADR interacts with mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (COX) and suppresses its enzyme activity led us to investigate ADR's action on the cardiovascular functions and heart mitochondrial morphology in Balb-c mice i.p. treated with ADR for several weeks. At various times during treatment, the animals were assessed for cardiovascular functions by electrocardiography and for heart tissue damage by electron microscopy. In parallel, total RNA was extracted from samples of dissected heart and analyzed by Northern blot hybridization to determine the steady-state level of three RNA transcripts encoded by the COXII, COXIII, and COXIV genes. Similarly, samples obtained from the liver of the same animals were analyzed for comparative studies. Our results indicated that 1) treatment of mice with ADR caused cardiovascular arrhythmias characterized by bradycardia, extension of ventricular depolarization time (tQRS), and failure of QRS at high concentrations (10-14 mg/kg body weight cumulative dose); 2) the heart mitochondria underwent swelling, fusion, dissolution, and/or disruption of mitochondrial cristae after several weeks of treatment. Such abnormalities were not observed in the mitochondria of liver tissue; and 3) among the three genes of COX enzyme examined, only COXII gene expression was suppressed by ADR treatment, mainly after 8 weeks in both heart and liver. Knowing that heart mitochondria represent almost 40% of heart muscle by weight, we conclude that the deteriorating effects of ADR on cardiovascular function involve mitochondrial structural and functional impairment.","[{'text': 'Structural and functional impairment of mitochondria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 75, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 178, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 245, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 296, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 413, 'end': 416, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 526, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1093, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1145, 'end': 1156, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'swelling', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1332, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1799, 'end': 1802, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial structural and functional impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1838, 'end': 1888, 'mesh': 'D028361'}]" +682,9915601,Enhanced bradycardia induced by beta-adrenoceptor antagonists in rats pretreated with isoniazid.,"High doses of isoniazid increase hypotension induced by vasodilators and change the accompanying reflex tachycardia to bradycardia, an interaction attributed to decreased synthesis of brain gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). In the present study, the possible enhancement by isoniazid of bradycardia induced by beta-adrenoceptor antagonists was determined in rats anaesthetised with chloralose-urethane. Isoniazid significantly increased bradycardia after propranolol, pindolol, labetalol and atenolol, as well as after clonidine, but not after hexamethonium or carbachol.

STUDY DESIGN: First a randomised trial, later periconception care including in total 12225 females. RESULTS: Of 60 epileptic women with periconceptional folic acid (0.8 mg)-containing multivitamin supplementation, no one developed epilepsy-related side effects during the periconception period. One epileptic woman delivered a newborn with cleft lip and palate. Another patient exhibited with a cluster of seizures after the periconception period using another multivitamin. This 22-year-old epileptic woman was treated continuously by carbamazepine and a folic acid (1 mg)-containing multivitamin from the 20th week of gestation. She developed status epilepticus and later symptoms of systemic lupus erythematodes. Her pregnancy ended with stillbirth. CONCLUSIONS: The epileptic pregnant patient's autoimmune disease (probably drug-induced lupus) could damage the blood-brain barrier, therefore the therapeutic dose (> or =1 mg) of folic acid triggered a cluster of seizures. Physiological dose (<1 mg) of folic acid both in healthy and 60 epileptic women, all without any autoimmune disease, did not increase the risk for epileptic seizures.","[{'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'SLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 61, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 76, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 120, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'birth defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 281, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 427, 'end': 436, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 465, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 543, 'end': 551, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 611, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 718, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 848, 'end': 861, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 868, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'systemic lupus erythematodes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 998, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'stillbirth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1063, 'mesh': 'D050497'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'autoimmune disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1129, 'mesh': 'D001327'}, {'text': 'lupus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'D008180'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1245, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1279, 'end': 1287, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1329, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1353, 'end': 1362, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'autoimmune disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1386, 'end': 1404, 'mesh': 'D001327'}, {'text': 'epileptic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D004827'}]" +684,9669632,Effects of cisapride on symptoms and postcibal small-bowel motor function in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.,"BACKGROUND: Irritable bowel syndrome is a common cause of abdominal pain and discomfort and may be related to disordered gastrointestinal motility. Our aim was to assess the effects of long-term treatment with a prokinetic agent, cisapride, on postprandial jejunal motility and symptoms in the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). METHODS: Thirty-eight patients with IBS (constipation-predominant, n = 17; diarrhoea-predominant, n = 21) underwent 24-h ambulatory jejunal manometry before and after 12 week's treatment [cisapride, 5 mg three times daily (n = 19) or placebo (n = 19)]. RESULTS: In diarrhoea-predominant patients significant differences in contraction characteristics were observed between the cisapride and placebo groups. In cisapride-treated diarrhoea-predominant patients the mean contraction amplitude was higher (29.3 +/- 3.2 versus 24.9 +/- 2.6 mm Hg, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.001); pretreatment, 25.7 +/- 6.0 mm Hg), the mean contraction duration longer (3.4 +/- 0.2 versus 3.0 +/- 0.2 sec, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.001); pretreatment, 3.1 +/- 0.5 sec), and the mean contraction frequency lower (2.0 +/- 0.2 versus 2.5 +/- 0.4 cont./min, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.001); pretreatment, 2.5 +/- 1.1 cont./min] than patients treated with placebo. No significant differences in jejunal motility were found in the constipation-predominant IBS group. Symptoms were assessed by using a visual analogue scale before and after treatment. Symptom scores relating to the severity of constipation were lower in cisapride-treated constipation-predominant IBS patients [score, 54 +/- 5 versus 67 +/- 14 mm, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.05); pretreatment, 62 +/- 19 mm]. Diarrhoea-predominant IBS patients had a higher pain score after cisapride therapy [score, 55 +/- 15 versus 34 +/- 12 mm, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.05); pretreatment, 67 +/- 19 mm]. CONCLUSION: Cisapride affects jejunal contraction characteristics and some symptoms in IBS.","[{'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'irritable bowel syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'Irritable bowel syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 129, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'abdominal pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 175, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D015746'}, {'text': 'disordered gastrointestinal motility', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 227, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D005767'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 347, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'irritable bowel syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 411, 'end': 435, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'IBS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 437, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'IBS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 479, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 484, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'diarrhoea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 518, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 631, 'end': 640, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'diarrhoea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 708, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 853, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'diarrhoea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 871, 'end': 880, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 985, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1132, 'end': 1141, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1295, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1462, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'IBS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1490, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1637, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1652, 'end': 1661, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1670, 'end': 1682, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'IBS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1695, 'end': 1698, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1746, 'end': 1755, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'Diarrhoea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1812, 'end': 1821, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'IBS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1834, 'end': 1837, 'mesh': 'D043183'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1860, 'end': 1864, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1877, 'end': 1886, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1934, 'end': 1943, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'Cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2012, 'end': 2021, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'IBS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2087, 'end': 2090, 'mesh': 'D043183'}]" +685,9326871,Clarithromycin-induced ventricular tachycardia.,"Clarithromycin is a relatively new macrolide antibiotic that offers twice-daily dosing.

Cumulative doses of doxorubicin were 225-550 mg/m2 (median dose 360). The evaluation consisted of a history, physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), signal averaged ECG, 24-hour ambulatory ECG, echocardiography and radionuclide angiography. Eighteen of 31 (58%) patients showed cardiac toxicity, defined as having one or more of the following abnormalities: late potentials, complex ventricular arrhythmias, left ventricular dilation, decreased shortening fraction, or decreased ejection fraction. The incidence of cardiac abnormalities increased with length of follow-up (P< or = .05). No correlation could be demonstrated between cumulative dose of doxorubicin and cardiac status, except for heart rate variability. When adjusted to body surface area, the left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPW index) was decreased in all patients. The incidence of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity is high and increases with follow-up, irrespective of cumulative dose. Life-long cardiac follow-up in these patients is warranted.

Sprague-Dawley rats were injected intraperitoneally with pilocarpine, and the hippocampal formation was studied histologically at 1, 2, 4, and 8 week intervals after pilocarpine-induced seizures. In situ hybridization histochemistry, using a digoxigenin-labeled GAD cRNA probe, demonstrated a substantial decrease in the number of GAD mRNA-containing neurons in the hilus of the dentate gyrus in the pilocarpine-treated rats as compared to controls at all time intervals. Additional neuronanatomical studies, including cresyl violet staining, neuronal degeneration methods, and histochemical localization of glial fibrillary acidic protein, suggested that the decrease in the number of GAD mRNA-containing neurons was related to neuronal loss rather than to a decrease in GAD mRNA levels. The loss of GAD mRNA-containing neurons in the hilus contrasted with the relative preservation of labeled putative basket cells along the inner margin of the granule cell layer. Quantitative analyses of labeled neurons in three regions of the dentate gyrus in the 1 and 2 week groups showed statistically significant decreases in the mean number of GAD mRNA-containing neurons in the hilus of both groups of experimental animals. No significant differences were found in the molecular layer or the granule cell layer, which included labeled neurons along the lower margin of the granule cell layer. The results indicate that, in this model, a subpopulation of GAD mRNA-containing neurons within the dentate gyrus is selectively vulnerable to seizure-induced damage. Such differential vulnerability appears to be another indication of the heterogeneity of GABA neurons.","[{'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 8, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'glutamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 177, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 291, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 336, 'end': 344, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 532, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'digoxigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 588, 'end': 599, 'mesh': 'D004076'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'cresyl violet', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'C028911'}, {'text': 'neuronal degeneration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 889, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'neuronal loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1088, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1877, 'end': 1884, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1990, 'end': 1994, 'mesh': 'D005680'}]" +691,7791169,Protective effect of misoprostol on indomethacin induced renal dysfunction in elderly patients.,"OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the possible protective effects of misoprostol on renal function in hospitalized elderly patients treated with indomethacin. METHODS: Forty-five hospitalized elderly patients (> 65 years old) who required therapy with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAID) were randomly assigned to receive either indomethacin, 150 mg/day (Group A), or indomethacin 150 mg/day plus misoprostol at 0.6 mg/day (Group B). Laboratory variables of renal function [serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and electrolytes] were evaluated before initiation of therapy and every 2 days, until termination of the study (a period of at least 6 days). Response to treatment was estimated by the visual analog scale for severity of pain. RESULTS: Forty-two patients completed the study, 22 in Group A and 20 in Group B. BUN and creatinine increased by > 50% of baseline levels in 54 and 45% of Group A patients, respectively, compared to only 20 and 10% of Group B patients (p < 0.05). Potassium (K) increment of 0.6 mEq/l or more was observed in 50% of Group A, but in only 15% of Group B patients (p < 0.05). The mean increments in BUN, creatinine, and K were reduced by 63, 80, and 42%, respectively, in Group B patients compared to Group A. Response to treatment did not differ significantly between the 2 groups. CONCLUSION: Hospitalized elderly patients are at risk for developing indomethacin related renal dysfunction. Addition of misoprostol can minimize this renal impairment without affecting pain control.","[{'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 165, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 230, 'end': 242, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 490, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 573, 'end': 583, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'blood urea nitrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'BUN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 606, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 832, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'BUN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 920, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 928, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'Potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1097, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'BUN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1239, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1256, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1508, 'end': 1525, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1539, 'end': 1550, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'renal impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1569, 'end': 1585, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1604, 'end': 1608, 'mesh': 'D010146'}]" +692,6728084,Nephrotoxic effects of aminoglycoside treatment on renal protein reabsorption and accumulation.,"To quantify the effects of gentamicin, kanamycin and netilmicin on renal protein reabsorption and accumulation, these drugs were administered to rats intraperitoneally (30 mg/kg/day) for 7, 14 or 21 days. Scanning electron microscopy of the glomerular endothelia, urinary measurements of sodium, potassium, endogenous lysozyme, N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) as well as clearance and accumulation experiments after i.v. administration of egg-white lysozyme and measurements of inulin clearance (GFR) were done in each treatment group. Gentamicin administration decreased diameter, density and shape of endothelial fenestrae. Kanamycin and netilmicin appeared to have no effect at the dose used. All three aminoglycosides decreased GFR and increased urinary excretion of sodium and potassium. While gentamicin and kanamycin decreased the percentage reabsorption and accumulation of lysozyme after i.v. administration of egg-white lysozyme netilmicin had no effect. Daily excretion of total protein, endogenous lysozyme and NAG increased only after treatment with kanamycin and gentamicin.

This coma was prevented with 1.68 mmol L-dopa given by gastric intubation 15 minutes before the ammonium salt injection. The effect of L-dopa was correlated with a decrease in blood and brain ammonia, an increase in brain dopamine, and an increase in renal excretion of ammonia and urea. Intraventricular infusion of dopamine sufficient to raise the brain dopamine to the same extent did not prevent the ammonia coma nor affect the blood and brain ammonia concentrations. Bilateral nephrectomy eliminated the beneficial effect of L-dopa on blood and brain ammonia and the ammonia coma was not prevented. Thus, the reduction in blood and brain ammonia and the prevention of ammonia coma after L-dopa, can be accounted for by the peripheral effect of dopamine on renal function rather than its central action. These results provide a reasonable explanation for the beneficial effects observed in some encephalopathic patients receiving L-dopa.","[{'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'coma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D003128'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'Ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'coma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D003128'}, {'text': 'NH4CL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D000643'}, {'text': 'coma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 178, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D003128'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 212, 'end': 218, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'ammonium salt', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D064751'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 365, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 395, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 443, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 455, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 490, 'end': 498, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 529, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 577, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'coma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 585, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D003128'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 628, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 703, 'end': 709, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 729, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 745, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'coma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 753, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D003128'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 816, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 846, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'coma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 854, 'end': 858, 'mesh': 'D003128'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 871, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 922, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'encephalopathic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'L-dopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1113, 'mesh': 'D007980'}]" +696,18589141,Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia after liver transplantation.,"BACKGROUND: Unfractionated heparin sodium (UFH) or low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is used in anticoagulant protocols at several institutions to prevent thrombosis after liver transplantation. Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is an adverse immune-mediated reaction to heparin, resulting in platelet count decreases of more than 50%. The frequencies of HIT after liver transplantation and platelet factor 4/heparin-reactive antibody (HIT antibody) positivity in liver transplantation patients, however, are unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The 32 men and 20 women underwent living donor liver transplantation. We started LMWH (25 IU/kg/h) on postoperative day (POD) 1, switching to UFH (5000 U/d) on POD 2 or 3. The dose of UFH was changed according to the activated clotting time level. HIT antibody levels were measured the day before surgery and on POD 7 and 14. Platelet count was measured daily for 3 weeks. RESULTS: The average platelet counts preoperatively, and on POD 7, 14, and 21 were 65, 88, 149, and 169 x 10(9)/L, respectively. Two patients developed hepatic artery thrombosis on POD 11 and 19, respectively, although they were HIT antibody-negative and their platelet counts were stable. In 2 other patients, the platelet count decreased suddenly from 107 x 10(9)/L on POD 4 to 65 x 10(9)/L on POD 6 and from 76 x 10(9)/L on POD 7 to 33 x 10(9)/L on POD 9, respectively. The heparin-induced platelet aggregation test was negative in these patients. The percentage of HIT antibody-positive patients was 0.5% preoperatively, 5.6% on POD 7, and 5.6% on POD 14. None of the subjects/patients developed UFH-related HIT. CONCLUSIONS: In our series, the occurrence of HIT after liver transplantation was uncommon.","[{'text': 'Heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'Unfractionated heparin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'UFH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 105, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'low-molecular weight heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 113, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D006495'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'Heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 259, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 275, 'end': 291, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 293, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 340, 'end': 347, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 424, 'end': 427, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 478, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'UFH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 751, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'UFH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 793, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 857, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'platelet aggregation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1495, 'mesh': 'D001791'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1554, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'UFH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1682, 'end': 1685, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1694, 'end': 1697, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1745, 'end': 1748, 'mesh': 'D013921'}]" +697,16418614,PTU-associated vasculitis in a girl with Turner Syndrome and Graves' disease.,"Palpable purpura is a concerning clinical finding in pediatric patients and can have many causes, including infectious and autoimmune processes.

Dexamethasone was started between the 7th and the 28th day of life over 7 days with a total dose of 2.35 mg/kg/day. Exclusion criteria were asphyxia, malformations, major surgical interventions, small for gestational age, intraventricular haemorrhage grades III and IV, periventricular leukomalacia, and severe psychomotor retardation. Each child was examined by a neuropediatrician for minor neurological dysfunctions and tested by a psychologist for cognitive development with a Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children and a Draw-a-Man Test. There were no differences in demographic data, growth, and socio-economic status between the two groups. Fine motor skills and gross motor function were significantly better in the control group (p<0.01). In the Draw-a-Man Test, the control group showed better results (p<0.001). There were no differences in development of speech, social development, and the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children.

We studied two groups of Parkinson's disease patients with (Parkinson's disease + LID, n = 23) and without levodopa-induced dyskinesias (Parkinson's disease - LID, n = 10), and age-matched healthy controls. The motor score of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, a dyskinesia score and force in a grip-lift paradigm were assessed ON and OFF levodopa. A pathological increase of forces was seen in ON-state in Parkinson's disease + LID only. In Parkinson's disease + LID, the force involved in pressing down the object before lifting was significantly increased by levodopa (by 61%, P < 0.05). An overshooting of peak grip force by 51% (P < 0.05) and of static grip force by 45% (P < 0.01) was observed in the ON- compared with the OFF-drug condition. In contrast, no excessive force was found in Parkinson's disease - LID. Peak grip force in ON-state was 140% (P < 0.05) higher in Parkinson's disease + LID than in Parkinson's disease - LID, while static grip force was increased by 138% (P < 0.01) between groups. Severity of peak-dose dyskinesias was strongly correlated with grip force in ON-state (r = 0.79 with peak force, P < 0.01). No correlation was observed between forces and the motor score as well as with the daily dose of dopaminergic medication. Force excess was only observed in patients with LID and motor fluctuations. A close relationship was seen between the overshooting of forces and dyskinesias in the ON-drug condition. We postulate that both LID and grip force excess share common pathophysiological mechanisms related to motor fluctuations.","[{'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 36, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 137, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 219, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 249, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 280, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 315, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 379, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 392, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 414, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's Disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 493, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 529, 'end': 539, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 673, 'end': 692, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 695, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 708, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 730, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 828, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1060, 'end': 1079, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1145, 'end': 1164, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1179, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1204, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1312, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1670, 'end': 1681, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LID', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1731, 'end': 1734, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +701,9105126,Postinfarction ventricular septal defect associated with long-term steroid therapy.,Two cases of postinfarction ventricular septal rupture in patients on long-term steroid therapy are presented and the favourable outcome in both cases described.

We describe such a case in a patient with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) maintained on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The combination of a relatively high dose of clarithromycin in face of chronic renal failure in a functionally anephric patient, with underlying aluminum intoxication, may have facilitated the appearance of this neurotoxic side effect.

In normal rats, 2/6 rats given free doxorubicin (DX) (5 mg/kg) died within one week, whereas all control animals and all rats having received free NP or DXNP survived. A 3 times higher proteinuria appeared in animals treated with DXNP than in those treated with DX. Free NP did not provoke any proteinuria. Two hr post-injection, DXNP was 2.7 times more concentrated in kidneys than free DX (p < 0.025). In rats with immune experimental glomerulonephritis, 5/6 rats given DX died within 7 days, in contrast to animals treated by DXNP, NP, or untreated, which all survived. Proteinuria appeared in all series, but was 2-5 times more intense (p > 0.001) and prolonged after doxorubicin treatment (400-700 mg/day), without significant difference between DXNP and DX. Rats treated by unloaded NP behaved as controls. These results demonstrate that, in these experimental conditions, DXNP killed less animals than free DX, despite of an enhanced renal toxicity of the former. Both effects (better survival and nephrosis) are most probably related to an enhanced capture of DXNP by cells of the mononuclear phagocyte system, including mesangial cells.","[{'text': 'renal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 6, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cyanoacrylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D003487'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'renal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 130, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 261, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 410, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'DX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 519, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'DX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 613, 'end': 615, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 662, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'DX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 697, 'end': 699, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 798, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 908, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 985, 'end': 987, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1141, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'renal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1180, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1239, 'mesh': 'D009401'}]" +705,7619765,Etoposide-related myocardial infarction.,"The occurrence of a myocardial infarction is reported after chemotherapy containing etoposide, in a man with no risk factors for coronary heart disease.

The patients of the study and control group (without digoxin) were of similar cardiac functional capacity and age (25-40 years) and were randomly selected from the rheumatic heart disease patients. A subjective assessment of sexual behavior in the study and control groups was carried out, using parameters such as sexual desire, sexual excitement, and frequency of sexual relations. Personal interviews and a questionnaire were also used for the evaluation of sexual behavior. The findings support the reports concerning digoxin effect on plasma estradiol, testosterone, and LH.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the changes in plasma and urinary lipoproteins during the administration of puromycin aminonucleoside (20 mg/kg for 7 days) and the subsequent development of nephrotic syndrome. Since massive albuminuria occurred after 6 days of treatment, the time-course study was divided into two stages: pre-nephrotic stage (day 1-5) and nephrotic stage (day 6-11). In pre-nephrotic stage the plasma level of fatty acids, triacylglycerol and VLDL decreased while that of phospholipid, cholesteryl esters and HDL remained constant. Plasma apolipoprotein A-I tended to increase (40% increase at day 5). At the beginning of nephrotic stage (day 6) the concentration of plasma albumin dropped to a very low level, while that of apolipoprotein A-I increased abruptly (4-fold increase) and continued to rise, although less steeply, in the following days. The plasma concentration of HDL followed the same pattern. Plasma VLDL and LDL increased at a later stage (day 9). Plasma apolipoprotein A-I was found not only in HDL (1.063-1.210 g/ml) but also in the LDL density class (1.025-1.050 g/ml). In the pre-nephrotic stage lipoproteinuria was negligible, while in the early nephrotic stage the urinary loss of plasma lipoproteins consisted mainly of HDL. These observations indicate that puromycin aminonucleoside alters plasma lipoproteins by lowering VLDL and increasing HDL. It is likely that the early and striking increase of plasma HDL found in nephrotic rats is related to a direct effect of the drug on HDL metabolism.","[{'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 110, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 232, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 262, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 300, 'end': 318, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 356, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 583, 'end': 601, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'albuminuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 617, 'end': 628, 'mesh': 'D000419'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 720, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 750, 'end': 759, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 785, 'end': 794, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'fatty acids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 821, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D005227'}, {'text': 'triacylglycerol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 834, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'cholesteryl esters', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D002788'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1033, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1521, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1588, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1693, 'end': 1718, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1856, 'end': 1865, 'mesh': 'D009404'}]" +709,7007443,Circulating lysosomal enzymes and acute hepatic necrosis.,"The activities of the lysosomal enzymes acid and neutral protease, N-acetylglucosaminidase, and acid phosphatase were measured in the serum of patients with fulminant hepatic failure.

Objective signs of ischemia and factors increasing myocardial oxygen consumption were compared during epinephrine infusion and supine bicycle exercise. Both epinephrine and exercise produced myocardial ischemia as evidenced by ST segment depression and angina. However, the mechanisms of myocardial ischemia induced by epinephrine were significantly different from those of exercise. Exercise-induced myocardial ischemia was marked predominantly by increased heart rate and rate-pressure product with a minor contribution of end-diastolic volume, while epinephrine-induced ischemia was characterized by a marked increase in contractility and a less pronounced increase in heart rate and rate-pressure product. These findings indicate that ischemia produced by epinephrine, as may occur during states of emotional distress, has a mechanism distinct from that due to physical exertion.","[{'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 14, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 45, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 113, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 232, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 315, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 370, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 404, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 466, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D000787'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 501, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 532, 'end': 543, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 614, 'end': 633, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 766, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 786, 'end': 794, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 952, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 973, 'end': 984, 'mesh': 'D004837'}]" +712,3088349,Transient contralateral rotation following unilateral substantia nigra lesion reflects susceptibility of the nigrostriatal system to exhaustion by amphetamine.,"Following unilateral 6-OHDA induced SN lesion, a transient period of contralateral rotation has been reported to precede the predominant ipsilateral circling. In order to clarify the nature of this initial contralateral rotation we examined the effect of the duration of recovery period after the lesion, on amphetamine-induced rotational behavior. Three days post lesion, most rats circled predominantly contralaterally to the lesion. Such contralateral rotation may result from either degeneration-induced breakdown of the DA pool, or lesion-induced increase of DA turnover in the spared neurons. A substantial degree of contralateral preference was still evident when amphetamine was administered for the first time 24 days after lesioning, indicating involvement of spared cells in the contralateral rotation. However, regardless of the duration of recovery (and irrespective of either lesion volume, amphetamine dose, or post-lesion motor exercise), amphetamine-induced rotation tended to become gradually more ipsilateral as the observation session progressed, and all rats circled ipsilaterally to the lesion in response to further amphetamine injections. These findings suggest that amphetamine has an irreversible effect on the post-lesion DA pool contributing to contralateral rotation.","[{'text': 'contralateral rotation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 10, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'substantia nigra lesion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 54, 'end': 77, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 147, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': '6-OHDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 181, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D016627'}, {'text': 'SN lesion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 196, 'end': 205, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'contralateral rotation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 229, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'ipsilateral circling', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 297, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'contralateral rotation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 366, 'end': 388, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 468, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'rotational behavior', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 488, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'contralateral rotation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 601, 'end': 623, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 831, 'end': 842, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'contralateral rotation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 950, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1076, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1115, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'rotation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1310, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1362, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'contralateral rotation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1433, 'end': 1455, 'mesh': 'D009069'}]" +713,3001299,Thyroid function and urine-concentrating ability during lithium treatment.,It has been suggested that adenylate cyclase inhibition may be important in the development of both nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and hypothyroidism during lithium treatment.

We have used a murine model of AIDS, infection of female C57BL/6 mice with LP-BM5 murine leukaemia (MuLV) virus, to determine if AZT-induced anaemia is due, in part, to decreased responsiveness of erythropoietic precursors (BFU-e) to erythropoietin (EPO). Mice in the early stage of LP-BM5 MuLV disease were given AZT in their drinking water at 1.0 and 2.5 mg/ml. AZT produced anaemia in both groups, in a dose-dependent fashion. Despite the anaemia, the number of splenic and bone marrow BFU-e in AZT treated mice increased up to five-fold over levels observed in infected untreated animals after 15 d of treatment. Colony formation by splenic and bone marrow BFUe was stimulated at lower concentrations of EPO in mice receiving AZT for 15 d than for infected, untreated mice. By day 30, sensitivity of both splenic and bone marrow BFU-e of treated animals returned to that observed from cells of infected untreated animals. The mean plasma levels of EPO observed in AZT treated mice were appropriate for the degree of anaemia observed when compared with phenylhydrazine (PHZ) treated mice. The numbers of BFU-e and the percentage of bone marrow erythroblasts observed were comparable in AZT and PHZ treated mice with similar degrees of anaemia. However, reticulocytosis was inappropriate for the degree of anaemia observed in AZT treated infected mice. AZT-induced peripheral anaemia in the face of increased numbers of BFU-e and increased levels of plasma EPO suggest a lesion in terminal differentiation.","[{'text': 'azidothymidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 66, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'immunodeficient', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'C565469'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 115, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': ""3'-azido-3'dideoxythymidine"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 134, 'end': 161, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AIDS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 221, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D000163'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 227, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'leukaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 279, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D007938'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 319, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 331, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 504, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 567, 'end': 574, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 632, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 688, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 920, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1158, 'end': 1161, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'phenylhydrazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1261, 'mesh': 'C030299'}, {'text': 'PHZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'C030299'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1382, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'PHZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1387, 'end': 1390, 'mesh': 'C030299'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1435, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'reticulocytosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1446, 'end': 1461, 'mesh': 'D045262'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1518, 'end': 1521, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1545, 'end': 1548, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D000740'}]" +715,1732442,Detection of abnormal cardiac adrenergic neuron activity in adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathy with iodine-125-metaiodobenzylguanidine.,"Radiolabeled metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG), an analog of norepinephrine (NE), serves as an index of adrenergic neuron integrity and function. Using a rat model of adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathy, we tested the hypothesis that abnormal cardiac adrenergic neuron activity may appear and be exacerbated dose-dependently in adriamycin cardiomyopathy. The degree of vacuolar degeneration of myocardial cells was analyzed in relation to the duration of adriamycin treatment (2 mg/kg, once a week). There were no abnormalities or only isolated degeneration in the 1- or 2-wk treatment groups, isolated or scattered degeneration in half of the 3-wk group, frequent scattered degeneration in the 4-wk group, scattered or focal degeneration in the 5-wk group, and extensive degeneration in the 8-wk group. Myocardial accumulation of [125I]MIBG 4 hr after intravenous injection did not differ between the controls and the groups treated 3 wk or less. However, the 4-wk group had a slightly lower accumulation in the right ventricular wall (82% of the control) and significantly lower accumulation in the left ventricular wall (about 66% of the control: p less than 0.05). In the 5-wk group, MIBG accumulation in the right and left ventricular wall was 35% and 27% of that in controls, respectively (p less than 0.001). In the 8-wk group, MIBG accumulation in the right and left ventricular wall was 18% and 14% of that in controls, respectively (p less than 0.001). Thus, MIBG accumulation in the myocardium decreased in an adriamycin dose-dependent manner. The appearance of impaired cardiac adrenergic neuron activity in the presence of slight myocardial impairment (scattered or focal vacuolar degeneration) indicates that MIBG scintigraphy may be a useful method for detection of adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathy.","[{'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 79, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'iodine-125-metaiodobenzylguanidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 99, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'Radiolabeled metaiodobenzylguanidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 135, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'MIBG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 193, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'NE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 209, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 299, 'end': 309, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 318, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 458, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 469, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'vacuolar degeneration of myocardial cells', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 499, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'C536522'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'MIBG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 967, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'MIBG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1318, 'end': 1322, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'MIBG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'MIBG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1599, 'end': 1603, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1651, 'end': 1661, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'myocardial impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1773, 'end': 1794, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'vacuolar degeneration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1815, 'end': 1836, 'mesh': 'C536522'}, {'text': 'MIBG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1853, 'end': 1857, 'mesh': 'D019797'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1911, 'end': 1921, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1930, 'end': 1944, 'mesh': 'D009202'}]" +716,1423339,Amnestic syndrome associated with propranolol toxicity: a case report.,An elderly woman developed an Alzheimer-like subacute dementia as a result of propranolol toxicity.

Studies were performed to evaluate whether chronic prazosin treatment alters the alpha 2-adrenoceptor function for orthostatic control of arterial blood pressure in conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). 2. Conscious SHR (male 300-350 g) were subjected to 90 degrees head-up tilts for 60 s following acute administration of prazosin (0.1 mg kg-1 i.p.) or rauwolscine (3 mg kg-1 i.v.). Orthostatic hypotension was determined by the average decrease (%) in mean arterial pressure (MAP femoral) over the 60-s tilt period. The basal MAP of conscious SHR was reduced to a similar extent by prazosin (-23%(-)-26% MAP) and rauwolscine (-16%(-)-33% MAP). However, the head-up tilt induced orthostatic hypotension in the SHR treated with prazosin (-16% MAP, n = 6), but not in the SHR treated with rauwolscine (less than +2% MAP, n = 6). 3. Conscious SHR were treated for 4 days with prazosin at 2 mg kg-1 day-1 i.p. for chronic alpha 1-adrenoceptor blockade. MAP in conscious SHR after chronic prazosin treatment was 14% lower than in the untreated SHR (n = 8). Head-up tilts in these rats did not produce orthostatic hypotension when performed either prior to or after acute dosing of prazosin (0.1 mg kg-1 i.p.). Conversely, administration of rauwolscine (3 mg kg-1 i.v.) in chronic prazosin treated SHR decreased the basal MAP by 12-31% (n = 4), and subsequent tilts induced further drops of MAP by 19-23% in these rats. 4. The pressor responses and bradycardia to the alpha 1-agonist cirazoline (0.6 and 2 micrograms kg-1 i.v.), the alpha 2-agonist Abbott-53693 (1 and 3 micrograms kg-1 i.v.), and noradrenaline (0.1 and 1.0 micrograms kg-1 i.v.) were determined in conscious SHR with and without chronic prazosin pretreatment. Both the pressor and bradycardia effects of cirazoline were abolished in chronic prazosin treated SHR (n = 4) as compared to the untreated SHR (n = 4). On the other hand, the pressor effects of Abbott-53693 were similar in both groups of SHR, but the accompanying bradycardia was greater in SHR with chronic prazosin treatment than without such treatment. Furthermore, the bradycardia that accompanied the noradrenaline-induced pressor effect in SHR was similar with and without chronic prazosin treatment despite a 47-71% reduction of the pressor effect in chronic alpha 1-receptor blocked SHR.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)","[{'text': 'Orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 126, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 199, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 349, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'rauwolscine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'Orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 543, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'rauwolscine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 774, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 839, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 887, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'rauwolscine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 947, 'end': 958, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1033, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1144, 'end': 1152, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1256, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'D007024'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1336, 'end': 1344, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'rauwolscine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1406, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1435, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1603, 'end': 1614, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'cirazoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1638, 'end': 1648, 'mesh': 'C014282'}, {'text': 'Abbott-53693', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1703, 'end': 1715, 'mesh': 'C056299'}, {'text': 'noradrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1752, 'end': 1765, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1859, 'end': 1867, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1903, 'end': 1914, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'cirazoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1926, 'end': 1936, 'mesh': 'C014282'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1963, 'end': 1971, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'Abbott-53693', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2076, 'end': 2088, 'mesh': 'C056299'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2146, 'end': 2157, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2190, 'end': 2198, 'mesh': 'D011224'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2255, 'end': 2266, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'noradrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2288, 'end': 2301, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'prazosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2369, 'end': 2377, 'mesh': 'D011224'}]" +720,8638876,Coexistence of cerebral venous sinus and internal carotid artery thrombosis associated with exogenous sex hormones.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) was found during admission. Computed tomography showed a hemorrhagic infarct in the right frontal lobe and increased density in the superior sagittal sinus (SSS). Left carotid angiography found occlusion of the left internal carotid artery (ICA). Right carotid angiograms failed to show the SSS and inferior sagittal sinus, suggestive of venous sinus thrombosis. Coexistence of the cerebral artery and the venous sinus occlusion has been described infrequently.

We also compared the ability to resuscitate rats after lethal doses of these local anesthetics. Bupivacaine, levobupivacaine, or ropivacaine was infused at a rate of 2 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) while electrocardiogram, electroencephalogram, and arterial pressure were continuously monitored. When asystole was recorded, drug infusion was stopped and a resuscitation sequence was begun. Epinephrine 0.01 mg/kg was administered at 1-min intervals while external cardiac compressions were applied. Resuscitation was considered successful when a systolic arterial pressure > or =100 mm Hg was achieved within 5 min. The cumulative doses of levobupivacaine and ropivacaine that produced seizures were similar and were larger than those of bupivacaine. The cumulative doses of levobupivacaine that produced dysrhythmias and asystole were smaller than the corresponding doses of ropivacaine, but they were larger than those of bupivacaine. The number of successful resuscitations did not differ among groups. However, a smaller dose of epinephrine was required in the Ropivacaine group than in the other groups. We conclude that the systemic toxicity of levobupivacaine is intermediate between that of ropivacaine and bupivacaine when administered at the same rate and that ropivacaine-induced cardiac arrest appears to be more susceptible to treatment than that induced by bupivacaine or levobupivacaine.","[{'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 9, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 53, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 137, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 165, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'Bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 301, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 314, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 334, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'asystole', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 496, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'Epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 835, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 855, 'end': 866, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 881, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 933, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 970, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'dysrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1000, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'asystole', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1017, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1119, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1239, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'Ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1260, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1342, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1346, 'end': 1361, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1394, 'end': 1405, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1410, 'end': 1421, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1466, 'end': 1477, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'cardiac arrest', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1486, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1566, 'end': 1577, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1581, 'end': 1596, 'mesh': 'C476513'}]" +723,10027919,22-oxacalcitriol suppresses secondary hyperparathyroidism without inducing low bone turnover in dogs with renal failure.,"BACKGROUND: Calcitriol therapy suppresses serum levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) in patients with renal failure but has several drawbacks, including hypercalcemia and/or marked suppression of bone turnover, which may lead to adynamic bone disease. A new vitamin D analogue, 22-oxacalcitriol (OCT), has been shown to have promising characteristics. This study was undertaken to determine the effects of OCT on serum PTH levels and bone turnover in states of normal or impaired renal function. METHODS: Sixty dogs were either nephrectomized (Nx, N = 38) or sham-operated (Sham, N = 22). The animals received supplemental phosphate to enhance PTH secretion. Fourteen weeks after the start of phosphate supplementation, half of the Nx and Sham dogs received doses of OCT (three times per week); the other half were given vehicle for 60 weeks. Thereafter, the treatment modalities for a subset of animals were crossed over for an additional eight months. Biochemical and hormonal indices of calcium and bone metabolism were measured throughout the study, and bone biopsies were done at baseline, 60 weeks after OCT or vehicle treatment, and at the end of the crossover period. RESULTS: In Nx dogs, OCT significantly decreased serum PTH levels soon after the induction of renal insufficiency. In long-standing secondary hyperparathyroidism, OCT (0.03 microg/kg) stabilized serum PTH levels during the first months. Serum PTH levels rose thereafter, but the rise was less pronounced compared with baseline than the rise seen in Nx control. These effects were accompanied by episodes of hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia. In animals with normal renal function, OCT induced a transient decrease in serum PTH levels at a dose of 0.1 microg/kg, which was not sustained with lowering of the doses. In Nx dogs, OCT reversed abnormal bone formation, such as woven osteoid and fibrosis, but did not significantly alter the level of bone turnover. In addition, OCT improved mineralization lag time, (that is, the rate at which osteoid mineralizes) in both Nx and Sham dogs. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that even though OCT does not completely prevent the occurrence of hypercalcemia in experimental dogs with renal insufficiency, it may be of use in the management of secondary hyperparathyroidism because it does not induce low bone turnover and, therefore, does not increase the risk of adynamic bone disease.","[{'text': '22-oxacalcitriol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperparathyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 28, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D006962'}, {'text': 'low bone turnover', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 75, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D001851'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 106, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'Calcitriol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D002117'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 222, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 273, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'suppression of bone turnover', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 301, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D001851'}, {'text': 'adynamic bone disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 349, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D001851'}, {'text': 'vitamin D', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D014807'}, {'text': '22-oxacalcitriol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 416, 'end': 419, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 526, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'impaired renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 591, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'phosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D010710'}, {'text': 'phosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D010710'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 887, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1317, 'end': 1320, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1409, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperparathyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D006962'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1703, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'hyperphosphatemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1721, 'end': 1738, 'mesh': 'D054559'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1779, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1924, 'end': 1927, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'woven osteoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1970, 'end': 1983, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1988, 'end': 1996, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2071, 'end': 2074, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'OCT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2237, 'end': 2240, 'mesh': 'C051883'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2287, 'end': 2300, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2327, 'end': 2346, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperparathyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2386, 'end': 2415, 'mesh': 'D006962'}, {'text': 'low bone turnover', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2443, 'end': 2460, 'mesh': 'D001851'}, {'text': 'adynamic bone disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2507, 'end': 2528, 'mesh': 'D001851'}]" +724,8643966,Chemotherapy of advanced inoperable non-small cell lung cancer with paclitaxel: a phase II trial.,"Paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ) has demonstrated significant antineoplastic activity against different tumor types, notably ovarian and breast carcinoma. Two phase II trials of 24-hour paclitaxel infusions in chemotherapy-naive patients with stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) reported response rates of 21% and 24%. Leukopenia was dose limiting: as many as 62.5% of patients experienced grade 4 leukopenia. We investigated the efficacy and toxicity of a 3-hour paclitaxel infusion in a phase II trial in patients with inoperable stage IIIB or IV NSCLC. The 58 patients treated (41 men and 17 women) had a median age of 59 years (age range, 25 to 75) and a performance status of 0 through 2. Most patients (72.4%) had stage IV NSCLC. Paclitaxel 225 mg/m2 was infused over 3 hours every 3 weeks with standard prophylactic premedication. Of 50 patients evaluable for response, 12 (24%) had partial remission, 26 (52%) had no change, and 12 had disease progression (24%). Hematologic toxicities were mild: only one patient (2%) developed grade 3 or 4 neutropenia, while 29% had grade 1 or 2. Grade 1 or 2 polyneuropathy affected 56% of patients while only one (2%) experienced severe polyneuropathy. Similarly, grade 1 or 2 myalgia/arthralgia was observed in 63.2% of patients, but only 14.3% experienced grade 3 or 4.

Subarachnoid and cerebral hemorrhage was noted in 18% of the hypertensive rats. A single PPA/caffeine administration (same dose) lead to acute hypertension in both the normotensive and hypertensive animals.

The loading dose was 800 mg/day for 6 weeks and the maintenance dose was 600 mg/day. Sixty-nine percent of patients continued treatment with amiodarone and had no recurrence of symptomatic VT or ventricular fibrillation (VF) over a follow-up of 6 to 52 months (mean +/- standard deviation 14.2 +/- 8.2). Six percent of the patients had a nonfatal recurrence of VT and were successfully managed by continuing amiodarone at a higher dose or by the addition of a conventional antiarrhythmic drug. One or more adverse drug reactions occurred in 51% of patients. Adverse effects forced a reduction in the dose of amiodarone in 41% and discontinuation of amiodarone in 10% of patients. The most common symptomatic adverse reactions were tremor or ataxia (35%), nausea and anorexia (8%), visual halos or blurring (6%), thyroid function abnormalities (6%) and pulmonary interstitial infiltrates (5%). Although large-dose amiodarone is highly effective in the long-term treatment of VT or VF refractory to conventional antiarrhythmic drugs, it causes significant toxicity in approximately 50% of patients.

Recent data suggest that tricyclic antidepressants inhibit calcium influx in some tissues. This study addressed the potential role of calcium channel blockade in tricyclic antidepressant-induced hypotension. METHODS: Two interventions were studied that have been shown previously to improve blood pressure with calcium channel blocker overdose. CaCl2 and 4-aminopyridine. Anesthetized rats received the tricyclic antidepressant desipramine IP to produce hypotension, QRS prolongation, and bradycardia. Fifteen min later, animals received CaCl2, NaHCO3, or saline. In a second experiment, rats received tricyclic antidepressant desipramine IP followed in 15 min by 4-aminopyridine or saline. RESULTS: NaHCO3 briefly (5 min) reversed hypotension and QRS prolongation. CaCl2 and 4-aminopyridine failed to improve blood pressure. The incidence of ventricular arrhythmias (p = 0.004) and seizures (p = 0.03) in the CaCl2 group was higher than the other groups. CONCLUSION: The administration of CaCl2 or 4-aminopyridine did not reverse tricyclic antidepressant-induced hypotension in rats. CaCl2 therapy may possibly worsen both cardiovascular and central nervous system toxicity. These findings do not support a role for calcium channel inhibition in the pathogenesis of tricyclic antidepressant-induced hypotension.","[{'text': 'calcium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 100, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 176, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 245, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 320, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 381, 'end': 392, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 497, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 521, 'end': 529, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'CaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 531, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 541, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 640, 'end': 651, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 675, 'end': 686, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'CaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 724, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'NaHCO3', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 737, 'mesh': 'D017693'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 824, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 850, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'NaHCO3', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 892, 'mesh': 'D017693'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 918, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'CaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 952, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 977, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'ventricular arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1029, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1077, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'CaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1101, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'CaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1181, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1185, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1261, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'CaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1403, 'end': 1410, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1486, 'end': 1497, 'mesh': 'D007022'}]" +728,7707116,Phase I trial of 13-cis-retinoic acid in children with neuroblastoma following bone marrow transplantation.,"PURPOSE: Treatment of neuroblastoma cell lines with 13-cis-retinoic acid (cis-RA) can cause sustained inhibition of proliferation. Since cis-RA has demonstrated clinical responses in neuroblastoma patients, it may be effective in preventing relapse after cytotoxic therapy. This phase I trial was designed to determine the maximal-tolerated dosage (MTD), toxicities, and pharmacokinetics of cis-RA administered on an intermittent schedule in children with neuroblastoma following bone marrow transplantation (BMT). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Fifty-one assessable patients, 2 to 12 years of age, were treated with oral cis-RA administered in two equally divided doses daily for 2 weeks, followed by a 2-week rest period, for up to 12 courses. The dose was escalated from 100 to 200 mg/m2/d until dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was observed. A single intrapatient dose escalation was permitted. RESULTS: The MTD of cis-RA was 160 mg/m2/d. Dose-limiting toxicities in six of nine patients at 200 mg/m2/d included hypercalcemia (n = 3), rash (n = 2), and anemia/thrombocytopenia/emesis/rash (n = 1). All toxicities resolved after cis-RA was discontinued. Three complete responses were observed in marrow metastases. Serum levels of 7.4 +/- 3.0 mumol/L (peak) and 4.0 +/- 2.8 mumol/L (trough) at the MTD were maintained during 14 days of therapy. The DLT correlated with serum levels > or = 10 mumol/L. CONCLUSION: The MTD of cis-RA given on this intermittent schedule was 160 mg/m2/d. Serum levels known to be effective against neuroblastoma in vitro were achieved at this dose. The DLT included hypercalcemia, and may be predicted by serum cis-RA levels. Monitoring of serum calcium and cis-RA levels is indicated in future trials.","[{'text': '13-cis-retinoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 130, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': '13-cis-retinoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 182, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 245, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 291, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 463, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 499, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 564, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 721, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 912, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1020, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1052, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'rash', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D005076'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1152, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1175, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'emesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'rash', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1187, 'mesh': 'D005076'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1211, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'metastases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1311, 'mesh': 'D009362'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1528, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1638, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1693, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1738, 'end': 1744, 'mesh': 'D015474'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1773, 'end': 1780, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'cis-RA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1785, 'end': 1791, 'mesh': 'D015474'}]" +729,6892185,Effect of calcium chloride on gross behavioural changes produced by carbachol and eserine in cats.,"The effect of calcium chloride injected into the cerebral ventricles of group-housed unanaesthetized cats upon vocalization (rage, hissing and snarling), fighting (attack with paws and claws, defense with paws and claws and biting), mydriasis, tremor and clonic-tonic convulsions produced by carbachol and eserine injected similarly was investigated. Calcium chloride depressed or almost completely abolished the vocalization and fighting due to carbachol and eserine. On the other hand, mydriasis, tremor and clonic-tonic convulsions evoked by carbachol and eserine were not significantly changed by calcium chloride. It is apparent that calcium chloride can ""dissociate"" vocalization and fighting from autonomic and motor phenomena such as mydriasis, tremor and clonic-tonic convulsions caused by carbachol and eserine. Calcium chloride inhibited the vocalization and fighting produced by carbachol and eserine most probably by a nonspecific stabilizing action on central muscarinic cholinoceptive sites. These results further support the view that calcium ions in excess have an atropine-like action also in the central nervous system.","[{'text': 'calcium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'eserine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'calcium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 113, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'mydriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 332, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D015878'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 343, 'end': 349, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'clonic-tonic convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 354, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 391, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'eserine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 405, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'Calcium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 450, 'end': 466, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'eserine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'mydriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 587, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D015878'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 598, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'clonic-tonic convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 609, 'end': 633, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 644, 'end': 653, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'eserine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 658, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'calcium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 700, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'calcium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 738, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'mydriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 841, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D015878'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 852, 'end': 858, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'clonic-tonic convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 863, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 898, 'end': 907, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'eserine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 912, 'end': 919, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'Calcium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 921, 'end': 937, 'mesh': 'D002122'}, {'text': 'carbachol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 990, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D002217'}, {'text': 'eserine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1150, 'end': 1157, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1181, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D001285'}]" +730,6216862,Multiple side effects of penicillamine therapy in one patient with rheumatoid arthritis.,"Skin rashes, proteinuria, systemic lupus erythematosus, polymyositis and myasthenia gravis have all been recorded as complications of penicillamine therapy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Supraventricular tachycardia developed in one patient receiving Thorazine (chlorpromazine). Aventyl (nortriptyline) and Elavil (amitriptyline) each produced left bundle branch block in a 73 year old woman. Electrocardiographic T and U wave abnormalities were present in most patients. The ventricular arrhythmias responded to intravenous administration of lidocaine and to direct current electric shock; ventricular pacing was required in some instances and intravenous administration of propranolol combined with ventricular pacing in one. The tachyarrhythmias generally subsided within 48 hours after administration of the drugs was stopped. Five of the eight patients were 50 years of age or younger; only one clearly had antecedent heart disease. Major cardiac arrhythmias are a potential hazard in patients without heart disease who are receiving customary therapeutic doses of psychotropic drugs.

A 3 mg/kg (i.p.) dose induced this response in all of the mice tested and the peak response of 73 jerks per min was observed between 27 and 45 min. Increasing the brain serotonin levels by the administration of 5-hydroxytryptophan (80-160 mg/kg) in combination with a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor resulted in an inhibition of the muscimol effect. However, in a similar experiment l-dopa (80-160 mg/kg) was without effect. In doses of 3-10 mg/kg, the serotonin receptor agonist MK-212 caused a dose-dependent blockade of the response of muscimol. Of the benzodiazepines, clonazepam (0.1-0.3 mg/kg) was found to be several fold more potent than diazepam (0.3-3 mg/kg) in blocking the myoclonic jerks. While (-)-baclofen (1-3 mg/kg) proved to be an effective antagonist of muscimol, its (+)-isomer (5-20 mg/kg) lacked this property. Considering the fact that 5-HTP and the benzodiazepines have been found to be beneficial in the management of clinical myoclonus, the muscimol-induced myoclonus seems to be a satisfactory animal model that may prove useful for the development of new drug treatments for this condition.

In the present study, the effect of crocins on sporadic Alzheimer's disease induced by intracerebroventricular (icv) streptozocin (STZ) in male rats was investigated. METHODS: Male adult Wistar rats (n = 90 and 260-290 g) were divided into 1, control; 2 and 3, crocins (15 and 30 mg/kg); 4, STZ; 5 and 6, STZ + crocins (15 and 30 mg/kg) groups. In Alzheimer's disease groups, rats were injected with STZ-icv bilaterally (3 mg/kg) in first day and 3 days later, a similar STZ-icv application was repeated. In STZ + crocin animal groups, crocin was applied in doses of 15 and 30 mg/kg, i.p., one day pre-surgery and continued for three weeks. Prescription of crocin in each dose was repeated once for two days. However, the learning and memory performance was assessed using passive avoidance paradigm, and for spatial cognition evaluation, Y-maze task was used. RESULTS: It was found out that crocin (30 mg/kg)-treated STZ-injected rats show higher correct choices and lower errors in Y-maze than vehicle-treated STZ-injected rats. In addition, crocin in the mentioned dose could significantly attenuated learning and memory impairment in treated STZ-injected group in passive avoidance test.

A Tween 80-coated poly-L-lactid acid nanoparticles was used as a model of colloidal drug delivery system, able to trespass the BBB. Tacrine, administered in LiCl pre-treated rats, induces electrocorticographic seizures and delayed hippocampal damage. The toxic effects of tacrine-loaded poly-L-lactid acid nanoparticles (5mg/kg), a saline solution of tacrine (5mg/kg) and an empty colloidal nanoparticle suspension were compared following i.p. administration in LiCl-pre-treated Wistar rats. All the animals treated with tacrine-loaded nanoparticles showed an earlier outcome of CNS adverse symptoms, i.e. epileptic onset, with respect to those animals treated with the free compound (10 min vs. 22 min respectively). In addition, tacrine-loaded nanoparticles administration induced damage of neuronal cells in CA1 field of the hippocampus in all treated animals, while the saline solution of tacrine only in 60% of animals. Empty nanoparticles provided similar results to control (saline-treated) group of animals. In conclusion, the evaluation of time-to-onset of symptoms and the severity of neurodegenerative processes induced by the tacrine-lithium model of epilepsy in the rat, could be used to evaluate preliminarily the capability of a drug delivery system to trespass (or not) the BBB in vivo.","[{'text': 'poly-L-lactid acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 425, 'end': 443, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'Tacrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 539, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'D013619'}, {'text': 'LiCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 564, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D018021'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 617, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'hippocampal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 638, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'tacrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 679, 'end': 686, 'mesh': 'D013619'}, {'text': 'poly-L-lactid acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 694, 'end': 712, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'tacrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 758, 'end': 765, 'mesh': 'D013619'}, {'text': 'LiCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 869, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D018021'}, {'text': 'tacrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 928, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D013619'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1013, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'tacrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D013619'}, {'text': 'damage of neuronal cells', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'tacrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1300, 'end': 1307, 'mesh': 'D013619'}, {'text': 'tacrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1545, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D013619'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1553, 'end': 1560, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1570, 'end': 1578, 'mesh': 'D004827'}]" +737,19721134,The antiarrhythmic effect and possible ionic mechanisms of pilocarpine on animal models.,"This study was designed to evaluate the effects of pilocarpine and explore the underlying ionic mechanism, using both aconitine-induced rat and ouabain-induced guinea pig arrhythmia models. Confocal microscopy was used to measure intracellular free-calcium concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) in isolated myocytes. The current data showed that pilocarpine significantly delayed onset of arrhythmias, decreased the time course of ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation, reduced arrhythmia score, and increased the survival time of arrhythmic rats and guinea pigs. [Ca(2+)](i) overload induced by aconitine or ouabain was reduced in isolated myocytes pretreated with pilocarpine. Moreover, M(3)-muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) antagonist 4-DAMP (4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine-methiodide) partially abolished the beneficial effects of pilocarpine. These data suggest that pilocarpine produced antiarrhythmic actions on arrhythmic rat and guinea pig models induced by aconitine or ouabain via stimulating the cardiac M(3)-mAChR.

Recent development of vaccine for prevention is reported to be successful in reducing the size of chronically infected carriers, although the standard medical therapies have not been established up to now. In this report, we encountered a patient with decompensated HBV-related cirrhosis who exhibited the dramatic improvements after antiviral therapy. The patient was a 50-year-old woman. Previous conventional medical treatments were not effective for this patient, thus this patient had been referred to our hospital. However, the administration of lamivudine, a reverse transcriptase inhibitor, for 23 months dramatically improved her liver severity. During this period, no drug resistant mutant HBV emerged, and the serum HBV-DNA level was continuously suppressed. These virological responses were also maintained even after the antiviral therapy was discontinued. Moreover, both hepatitis B surface antigen and e antigen were observed to have disappeared in this patient. The administration of lamivudine to patients with HBV-related cirrhosis, like our present case, should be considered as an initial medical therapeutic option, especially in countries where liver transplantation is not reliably available.","[{'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 120, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 144, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'liver cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D008103'}, {'text': 'hepatocellular carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 567, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 841, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1299, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1329, 'end': 1338, 'mesh': 'D005355'}]" +740,11226639,Dual effects of melatonin on barbiturate-induced narcosis in rats.,"Melatonin affects the circadian sleep/wake cycle, but it is not clear whether it may influence drug-induced narcosis. Sodium thiopenthal was administered intraperitoneally into male rats pre-treated with melatonin (0.05, 0.5, 5 and 50 mg/kg). Melatonin pre-treatment affected in a dual manner barbiturate narcosis, however, no dose-effect correlation was found. In particular, low doses reduced the latency to and prolonged the duration of barbiturate narcosis. In contrast, the highest dose of melatonin (50 mg/kg) caused a paradoxical increase in the latency and produced a sustained reduction of the duration of narcosis, and a reduction in mortality rate. Melatonin 0.5 and 5 mg/kg influenced the duration but not the latency of ketamine- or diazepam-induced narcosis. Thus, the dual action of melatonin on pharmacological narcosis seems to be specific for the barbiturate mechanism of action.","[{'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'barbiturate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'C032232'}, {'text': 'narcosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D053608'}, {'text': 'Melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 67, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'narcosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 175, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D053608'}, {'text': 'Sodium thiopenthal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 271, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'Melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 310, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'barbiturate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 360, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'C032232'}, {'text': 'narcosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 372, 'end': 380, 'mesh': 'D053608'}, {'text': 'barbiturate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 507, 'end': 518, 'mesh': 'C032232'}, {'text': 'narcosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 519, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D053608'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 562, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'narcosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 682, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D053608'}, {'text': 'Melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 727, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 800, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 821, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'narcosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 830, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D053608'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 874, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'narcosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 894, 'end': 902, 'mesh': 'D053608'}, {'text': 'barbiturate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 932, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'C032232'}]" +741,9228650,Effects of NIK-247 on cholinesterase and scopolamine-induced amnesia.,"The effects of NIK-247 on cholinesterase, scopolamine-induced amnesia and spontaneous movement were examined and compared with those of the well-known cholinesterase inhibitors tacrine and E-2020. NIK-247, tacrine and E-2020 all strongly inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in human red blood cells (IC50s = 1.0 x 10(-6), 2.9 x 10(-7) and 3.7 x 10(-8) M, respectively). In addition, NIK-247 and tacrine, but not E-2020, strongly inhibited butyrylcholinestrase (BuChE) in human serum. All three drugs produced mixed inhibition of AChE activity. Moreover, the inhibitory effect of NIK-247 on AChE was reversible. All compounds at 0.1-1 mg/kg p.o. significantly improved the amnesia induced by scopolamine (0.5 mg/kg s.c.) in rats performing a passive avoidance task.

Several routine indicators of nephrotoxicity, the enzymes alkaline phosphatase and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, and the molecular weight of protein excretion were determined on urine samples. Tubular damage produced by HCBD or BEA was discriminated both quantitatively and qualitatively from glomerular damage produced by PAN. The latter was characterized by a pronounced increase in protein excretion, especially proteins with molecular weight greater than 40,000 Da. In contrast, protein excretion in tubular damage was raised only slightly and characterized by excretion of proteins of a wide range of molecular weights. Proximal tubular damage caused by HCBD and papillary damage caused by BEA were distinguished both by conventional urinalysis (volume and specific gravity) and by measurement of the two urinary enzymes. Alkaline phosphatase and glucose were markedly and transiently elevated in proximal tubular damage and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase showed a sustained elevation in papillary damage. It is concluded that both selective urinary enzymes and the molecular weight pattern of urinary proteins can be used to provide diagnostic information about the possible site of renal damage.","[{'text': 'injury to different regions of the kidney', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 54, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Acute experimental models of renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 97, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'hexachloro-1:3-butadiene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'C001335'}, {'text': 'HCBD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 270, 'end': 274, 'mesh': 'C001335'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 277, 'end': 302, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 307, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': '2-bromoethylamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 314, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'C004504'}, {'text': 'BEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'C004504'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'protein excretion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 495, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'HCBD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 574, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'C001335'}, {'text': 'BEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 582, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'C004504'}, {'text': 'glomerular damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 647, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 677, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'protein excretion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 739, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'protein excretion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 837, 'end': 854, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'excretion of proteins', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 919, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'HCBD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1013, 'end': 1017, 'mesh': 'C001335'}, {'text': 'BEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'C004504'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1542, 'end': 1554, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +745,2750819,Neuromuscular blockade with magnesium sulfate and nifedipine.,A patient who received tocolysis with nifedipine developed neuromuscular blockade after 500 mg of magnesium sulfate was administered.

A phase I trial of a 14-day cycle.,"Twenty patients received 27 courses of ifosfamide administered as a 24-hour continuous infusion for 14 days without Mesna. The goal of the study was to deliver a dose rate and total cumulative dose of ifosfamide that would be comparable to standard bolus or short-term infusions administered with Mesna. Dose escalations proceeded from 200 to 300, 400, 450, 500, and 550 mg/m2/d. Four patients developed transient microscopic hematuria at 400, 450, and 500 mg/m2/d. There were no instances of macroscopic hematuria. At 550 mg/m2/d, three patients experienced nonurologic toxicity; confusion (1), nausea (1), and Grade 2 leukopenia (1). The recommended dose of 500 mg/m2/d delivers a total dose of 7 g/m2 per cycle, which is comparable to that delivered in clinical practice for bolus or short-term infusion. Because few patients received multiple courses over time, the cumulative effects are indeterminate in the present trial. The frequency and predictability of hematuria are not precise, and at least daily monitoring by urine Hematest is essential, adding Mesna to the infusate in patients with persistent hematuria. The protracted infusion schedule for ifosfamide permits convenient outpatient administration without Mesna and reduces the drug cost of clinical usage of this agent by up to 890 per cycle. Clinical activity was demonstrated in a single patient, but a comparative trial of standard bolus schedules with the protracted infusion schedule will be necessary to determine if the clinical effectiveness of the drug is maintained.","[{'text': 'Ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 120, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'Mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 197, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 282, 'end': 292, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'Mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'hematuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 507, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D006417'}, {'text': 'hematuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 586, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D006417'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 652, 'end': 660, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 662, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 677, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'leukopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 701, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'hematuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1046, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D006417'}, {'text': 'Mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'hematuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1192, 'end': 1201, 'mesh': 'D006417'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1240, 'end': 1250, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'Mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D015080'}]" +747,18161408,Myocardial infarction in pregnancy associated with clomiphene citrate for ovulation induction: a case report.,"BACKGROUND: Clomiphene citrate (CC) is commonly prescribed for ovulation induction. It is considered safe, with minimal side effects. Thromboembolism is a rare but life-threatening complication that has been reported after ovulation induction with CC. Spontaneous coronary thrombosis or thromboembolism with subsequent clot lysis has been suggested as one of the most common causes of myocardial infarction (MI) during pregnancy, with a subsequently normal coronary angiogram. CASE: A 33-year-old woman with a 5-week gestation had recently received CC for ovulation induction and presented with chest pain. An electrocardiogram showed a lateral and anterior wall myocardial infarction. Cardiac enzymes showed a peak rise in troponin I to 9.10 ng/mL. An initial exercise stress test was normal. At the time of admission, the patient was at high risk of radiation injury to the fetus, so a coronary angiogram was postponed until the second trimester. It showed normal coronary vessels. CONCLUSION: This appears to be the first reported case documenting a possible association between CC and myocardial infarction. Thrombosis might be a rare but hazardous complication of CC.

Inflammatory reactions of internal and external hepatic biliary ducts were also seen.

We report 3 cases which presented with bitemporal hemianopia. CLINICAL PICTURE: Three patients with ethambutol-associated toxic optic neuropathy are described. All 3 patients had loss of central visual acuity, colour vision (Ishihara) and visual field. The visual field loss had a bitemporal flavour, suggesting involvement of the optic chiasm. TREATMENT: Despite stopping ethambutol on diagnosis, visual function continued to deteriorate for a few months. Subsequent improvement was mild in 2 cases. In the third case, visual acuity and colour vision normalised but the optic discs were pale. OUTCOME: All 3 patients had some permanent loss of visual function. CONCLUSIONS: Ethambutol usage is associated with permanent visual loss and should be avoided if possible or used with caution and proper ophthalmological follow-up.

Furthermore, we evaluated whether some factors have the potential to increase the risk of reaction to paracetamol and nimesulide. A single-placebo-controlled oral challenge procedure with nimesulide or paracetamol was applied to 829 patients with a history of NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema. A total of 75/829 (9.4%) patients experienced reactions to nimesulide or paracetamol. Of the 715 patients tested with nimesulide 62 (8.6%) showed a positive test, while of 114 subjects submitted to the challenge with paracetamol, 13 (9.6%) did not tolerate this drug. Furthermore, 18.28% of patients with a history of chronic urticaria and 11.8% of subjects with an history of NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema or angioedema alone (with or without chronic urticaria) resulted to be intolerant to alternative drugs. Taken together, our results confirm the good tolerability of nimesulide and paracetamol in patients who experienced urticaria/angioedema caused by NSAIDs. However, the risk of reaction to these alternative study drugs is statistically increased by a history of chronic urticaria and, above all, by a history of NSAID-induced angioedema.","[{'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'NSAID', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 74, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 84, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D000799'}, {'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 155, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 246, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'NSAIDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 284, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 355, 'end': 365, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 370, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'NSAID', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 462, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 476, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 486, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D000799'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 600, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 616, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 686, 'end': 696, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 700, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'NSAID', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 758, 'end': 763, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 772, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 782, 'end': 792, 'mesh': 'D000799'}, {'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 853, 'end': 863, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 867, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 912, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1120, 'end': 1129, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'NSAID', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1171, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1185, 'end': 1194, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1195, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D000799'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D000799'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1251, 'end': 1260, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'nimesulide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1371, 'end': 1381, 'mesh': 'C012655'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1386, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1426, 'end': 1435, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1446, 'mesh': 'D000799'}, {'text': 'NSAIDs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1457, 'end': 1463, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'urticaria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1588, 'mesh': 'D014581'}, {'text': 'NSAID', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1621, 'end': 1626, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1635, 'end': 1645, 'mesh': 'D000799'}]" +751,11282081,Effects of verapamil on atrial fibrillation and its electrophysiological determinants in dogs.,"BACKGROUND: Atrial tachycardia-induced remodeling promotes the occurrence and maintenance of atrial fibrillation (AF) and decreases L-type Ca(2+) current. There is also a clinical suggestion that acute L-type Ca(2) channel blockade can promote AF, consistent with an AF promoting effect of Ca(2+) channel inhibition. METHODS: To evaluate the potential mechanisms of AF promotion by Ca(2+) channel blockers, we administered verapamil to morphine-chloralose anesthetized dogs. Diltiazem was used as a comparison drug and autonomic blockade with atropine and nadolol was applied in some experiments. Epicardial mapping with 240 epicardial electrodes was used to evaluate activation during AF. RESULTS: Verapamil caused AF promotion in six dogs, increasing mean duration of AF induced by burst pacing, from 8+/-4 s (mean+/-S.E.) to 95+/-39 s (P<0.01 vs. control) at a loading dose of 0.1 mg/kg and 228+/-101 s (P<0.0005 vs. control) at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg. Underlying electrophysiological mechanisms were studied in detail in five additional dogs under control conditions and in the presence of the higher dose of verapamil. In these experiments, verapamil shortened mean effective refractory period (ERP) from 122+/-5 to 114+/-4 ms (P<0.02) at a cycle length of 300 ms, decreased ERP heterogeneity (from 15+/-1 to 10+/-1%, P<0.05), heterogeneously accelerated atrial conduction and decreased the cycle length of AF (94+/-4 to 84+/-3 ms, P<0.005). Diltiazem did not affect ERP, AF cycle length or AF duration, but produced conduction acceleration similar to that caused by verapamil (n=5). In the presence of autonomic blockade, verapamil failed to promote AF and increased, rather than decreasing, refractoriness. Neither verapamil nor diltiazem affected atrial conduction in the presence of autonomic blockade. Epicardial mapping suggested that verapamil promoted AF by increasing the number of simultaneous wavefronts reflected by separate zones of reactivation in each cycle. CONCLUSIONS: Verapamil promotes AF in normal dogs by promoting multiple circuit reentry, an effect dependent on intact autonomic tone and not shared by diltiazem.","[{'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 24, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Atrial tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 107, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D013617'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 209, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 234, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 306, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 362, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 385, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 461, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 477, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 518, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 531, 'end': 539, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'chloralose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 540, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D002698'}, {'text': 'Diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 570, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 638, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'nadolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 651, 'end': 658, 'mesh': 'D009248'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 781, 'end': 783, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 811, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 865, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1238, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1539, 'end': 1548, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1569, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1588, 'end': 1590, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1664, 'end': 1673, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1720, 'end': 1729, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1748, 'end': 1750, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1814, 'end': 1823, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1828, 'end': 1837, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1938, 'end': 1947, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1957, 'end': 1959, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2084, 'end': 2093, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2103, 'end': 2105, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2223, 'end': 2232, 'mesh': 'D004110'}]" +752,10074612,"Hypotension, bradycardia, and asystole after high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone in a monitored patient.","We report a case of hypotension, bradycardia, and asystole after intravenous administration of high-dose methylprednisolone in a 73-year-old patient who underwent electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring throughout the episode.

It is generally assumed that DNA elongation is stopped by the insertion of AZT into the chain in place of thymidine thus preventing the phosphate hydroxyl linkages and therefore suppresses hemopoietic progenitor cell proliferation in an early stage of differentiation. CBA/Ca male mice started on AZT 0.75 mg/ml H2O at 84 days of age and kept on it for 687 days when dosage reduced to 0.5 mg/ml H2O for a group, another group removed from AZT to see recovery, and third group remained on 0.75 mg. At 687 days mice that had been on 0.75 mg had average platelet counts of 2.5 x 10(6).

The present study investigates the effects of a diet free of precursors of NAD, the substrate on which PARP acts, in female NMRI mice with AAP hepatitis and evaluates the influence of simultaneous ethanol consumption in these animals. Liver injuries were quantified as serum activities of glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) and glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (GPT). While AAP caused a 117-fold elevation of serum transaminase activities in mice kept on a standard laboratory diet, which was significantly exacerbated by ethanol and inhibited by nicotinic acid amide (NAA), adverse effects were noted in animals fed a diet free of precursors of NAD. In these animals, only minor increases of serum transaminase activities were measured in the presence of AAP, and unlike the exacerbation caused by ethanol in mice on a standard diet, the liver damage was inhibited by 50% by ethanol. A further 64% reduction of hepatitis was observed, when NAA was given to ethanol/AAP-mice. Our results provide evidence that the AAP-induced hepatitis and its exacerbation by ethanol can either be reduced by end-product inhibition of PARP by NAA or by dietary depletion of the enzyme's substrate NAD. We see the main application of NAA as for the combinational use in pharmaceutical preparations of acetaminophen in order to avoid hepatic damage in patients treated with this widely used analgesic.","[{'text': 'NAD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D009243'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'nicotinic acid amide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D009536'}, {'text': 'poly(ADP-ribose)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 187, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D011064'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 258, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 273, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 278, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'liver injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 321, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'NAD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D009243'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 525, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 529, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'Liver injuries', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 621, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 675, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'oxaloacetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 685, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D062907'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 721, 'end': 730, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'pyruvate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 739, 'mesh': 'D019289'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 766, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 914, 'end': 921, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'nicotinic acid amide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 959, 'mesh': 'D009536'}, {'text': 'NAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 961, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D009536'}, {'text': 'NAD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'D009243'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'liver damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1243, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'NAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1333, 'end': 1336, 'mesh': 'D009536'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1350, 'end': 1357, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1358, 'end': 1361, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'AAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1406, 'end': 1409, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1418, 'end': 1427, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1459, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'NAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1519, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D009536'}, {'text': 'NAD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D009243'}, {'text': 'NAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1609, 'end': 1612, 'mesh': 'D009536'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1676, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'hepatic damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1722, 'mesh': 'D056486'}]" +755,2435991,Antiarrhythmic plasma concentrations of cibenzoline on canine ventricular arrhythmias.,"Using two-stage coronary ligation-, digitalis-, and adrenaline-induced canine ventricular arrhythmias, antiarrhythmic effects of cibenzoline were examined and the minimum effective plasma concentration for each arrhythmia model was determined. Cibenzoline suppressed all the arrhythmias, and the minimum effective plasma concentrations for arrhythmias induced by 24-h coronary ligation, 48-h coronary ligation, digitalis, and adrenaline were 1.9 +/- 0.9 (by 8 mg/kg i.v.), 1.6 +/- 0.5 (by 8 mg/kg i.v.), 0.6 +/- 0.2 (by 2 mg/kg i.v.), and 3.5 +/- 1.3 (by 5 mg/kg i.v.) micrograms/ml, respectively (mean +/- SDM, n = 6-7). The concentration for adrenaline-induced arrhythmia was significantly higher than those for the other types of arrhythmias. This pharmacological profile is similar to those of mexiletine and tocainide, and all three drugs have central nervous system (CNS) stimulant action.

There is no consensus on the optimal treatment for W-ICH. Using a mouse model, we tested whether the rapid reversal of anticoagulation using human prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) can reduce hemorrhagic blood volume. Male CD-1 mice were treated with warfarin (2 mg/kg over 24 h), resulting in a mean (+/-s.d.) International Normalized Ratio of 3.5+/-0.9. First, we showed that an intravenous administration of human PCC rapidly reversed anticoagulation in mice. Second, a stereotactic injection of collagenase was administered to induce hemorrhage in the right striatum. Forty-five minutes later, the animals were randomly treated with PCC (100 U/kg) or saline i.v. (n=12 per group). Twenty-four hours after hemorrhage induction, hemorrhagic blood volume was quantified using a photometric hemoglobin assay. The mean hemorrhagic blood volume was reduced in PCC-treated animals (6.5+/-3.1 microL) compared with saline controls (15.3+/-11.2 microL, P=0.015). In the saline group, 45% of the mice developed large hematomas (i.e., >15 microL). In contrast, such extensive lesions were never found in the PCC group. We provide experimental data suggesting PCC to be an effective acute treatment for W-ICH in terms of reducing hemorrhagic blood volume. Future studies are needed to assess the therapeutic potential emerging from our finding for human W-ICH.","[{'text': 'hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'intracerebral hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 100, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'Warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 126, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'intracerebral hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 146, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 260, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'prothrombin complex concentrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 354, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'C025667'}, {'text': 'PCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'C025667'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 462, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'PCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'C025667'}, {'text': 'hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 749, 'end': 759, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'PCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 848, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'C025667'}, {'text': 'hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'PCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1072, 'mesh': 'C025667'}, {'text': 'hematomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1222, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D006406'}, {'text': 'PCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'C025667'}, {'text': 'PCC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1363, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'C025667'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1408, 'end': 1411, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1559, 'end': 1562, 'mesh': 'D002543'}]" +759,16634859,Impact of alcohol exposure after pregnancy recognition on ultrasonographic fetal growth measures.,"BACKGROUND: More than 3 decades after Jones and Smith (1973) reported on the devastation caused by alcohol exposure on fetal development, the rates of heavy drinking during pregnancy remain relatively unchanged. Early identification of fetal alcohol exposure and maternal abstinence led to better infant outcomes. This study examined the utility of biometry for detecting alcohol-related fetal growth impairment. METHODS: We obtained fetal ultrasound measures from routine ultrasound examinations for 167 pregnant hazardous drinkers who were enrolled in a brief alcohol intervention study. The fetal measures for women who quit after learning of their pregnancies were compared with measures for women who continued some drinking throughout the course of their pregnancies. Because intensity of alcohol consumption is associated with poorer fetal outcomes, separate analyses were conducted for the heavy (average of >or=5 drinks per drinking day) alcohol consumers. Fetal measures from the heavy-exposed fetuses were also compared with measures from a nondrinking group that was representative of normal, uncomplicated pregnancies from our clinics. Analyses of covariance were used to determine whether there were differences between groups after controlling for influences of gestational age and drug abuse. RESULTS: Nearly half of the pregnant drinkers abstained after learning of their pregnancies. When women reportedly quit drinking early in their pregnancies, fetal growth measures were not significantly different from a non-alcohol-exposed group, regardless of prior drinking patterns. Any alcohol consumption postpregnancy recognition among the heavy drinkers resulted in reduced cerebellar growth as well as decreased cranial to body growth in comparison with women who either quit drinking or who were nondrinkers. Amphetamine abuse was predictive of larger cranial to body growth ratios. CONCLUSIONS: Alterations in fetal biometric measurements were observed among the heavy drinkers only when they continued drinking after becoming aware of their pregnancies. Although the reliance on self-reported drinking is a limitation in this study, these findings support the benefits of early abstinence and the potential for ultrasound examinations in the detection of fetal alcohol effects.","[{'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 197, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 340, 'end': 347, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 470, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'growth impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 492, 'end': 509, 'mesh': 'D006130'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 893, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1045, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'drug abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1405, 'mesh': 'D019966'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1630, 'end': 1637, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1696, 'end': 1703, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'reduced cerebellar growth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1779, 'end': 1804, 'mesh': 'D006130'}, {'text': 'decreased cranial to body growth', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1816, 'end': 1848, 'mesh': 'D006130'}, {'text': 'Amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1924, 'end': 1935, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2378, 'end': 2385, 'mesh': 'D000431'}]" +760,16471092,Urinary symptoms and quality of life changes in Thai women with overactive bladder after tolterodine treatment.,"OBJECTIVES: To study the urinary symptoms and quality of life changes in Thai women with overactive bladder (OAB) after tolterodine treatment. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Thirty women (aged 30-77 years) diagnosed as having OAB at the Gynecology Clinic, King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital from January to April 2004 were included in the present study. Tolterodine 2 mg, twice daily was given. After 8 weeks treatment, changes in micturition diary variables and tolerability were determined. Short form 36 (SF36) questionaires (Thai version) were given before and after 8 weeks of treatment. RESULTS: At 8 weeks, all micturition per day decreased from 16. 7 +/- 5. 3 to 6. 7 +/- 2.4 times per day. The number of nocturia episodes decreased from 5.4 +/- 4.2 to 1.1 +/- 1.0 times per night. The most common side effect was dry month in 5 cases (16.7%) with 2 cases reporting a moderate degree and 1 case with severe degree. Only one case (3.3%) withdrew from the present study due to a severe dry mouth. The SF-36 scores changed significantly in the domains of physical functioning, role function emotional, social function and mental heath.

However, there are few studies of angiographic effects of cocaine on human cerebral arteries. Information on these effects could be obtained from angiograms of patients with cocaine-associated subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) who underwent angiography shortly after cocaine use. METHODS: We screened patients with SAH retrospectively and identified those with positive urine toxicology for cocaine or its metabolites. Quantitative arterial diameter measurements from angiograms of these patients were compared to measurements from control patients with SAH who were matched for factors known to influence arterial diameter. Qualitative comparisons of small artery changes also were made. RESULTS: Thirteen patients with positive cocaine toxicology were compared to 26 controls. There were no significant differences between groups in the mean diameters of the intradural internal carotid, sphenoidal segment of the middle cerebral, precommunicating segment of the anterior cerebral, or basilar arteries (p greater than 0.05 for all comparisons, unpaired t-tests). There also were no significant differences between groups when expressing diameters as the sum of the precommunicating segment of the anterior cerebral + sphenoidal segment of the middle cerebral + supraclinoid internal carotid artery + basilar artery divided by the diameter of the petrous internal carotid artery (p greater than 0.05, unpaired t-tests). Qualitative assessments showed two arterial irregularities in the distal vasculature in each group.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: 29 patients were enrolled on a study of thalidomide using an intra-patient dose escalation schedule. Patients began thalidomide at 400 mg/d and escalated as tolerated to 1200 mg/d by day 54. Fifty-nine per cent of patients had had previous therapy with IL-2 and 52% were performance status 2 or 3. Systemic plasma VEGF165 levels were measured by dual monoclonal ELISA in 8 patients. RESULTS: 24 patients were evaluable for response with one partial response of 11 months duration of a patient with hepatic and pulmonary metastases (4%), one minor response, and 2 patients stable for over 6 months. Somnolence and constipation were prominent toxicities and most patients could not tolerate the 1200 mg/day dose level. Systemic plasma VEGF165 levels did not change with therapy. CONCLUSION: These results are consistent with a low level of activity of thalidomide in renal cell carcinoma. Administration of doses over 800 mg/day was difficult to achieve in this patient population, however lower doses were practical. The dose-response relationship, if any, of thalidomide for renal cell carcinoma is unclear.","[{'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'renal cell carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D002292'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 105, 'end': 113, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 130, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'renal cell cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 179, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D002292'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 368, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 444, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'metastases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 848, 'end': 858, 'mesh': 'D009362'}, {'text': 'Somnolence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 926, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D006970'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 941, 'end': 953, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 969, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'renal cell carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1193, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D002292'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1387, 'end': 1398, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'renal cell carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1403, 'end': 1423, 'mesh': 'D002292'}]" +764,12231232,"The striatum as a target for anti-rigor effects of an antagonist of mGluR1, but not an agonist of group II metabotropic glutamate receptors.","The aim of the present study was to find out whether the metabotropic receptor 1 (mGluR1) and group II mGluRs, localized in the striatum, are involved in antiparkinsonian-like effects in rats.

There was no evidence for viral, autoimmune, or metabolic causes of hepatitis. No other medications were involved except for dipyrone for analgesia. The alanine aminotransferase was elevated to a peak concentration of 1533 U/L and the serum bilirubin reached a peak of 17.0 mg/dL. There was slow improvement over 4 months. Accidental reexposure by the patient to dipyrone was uneventful. DISCUSSION: The clinical and histologic picture of this case resembles halothane hepatitis, which has a significant mortality rate.

In the present study we aimed to investigate plasma levels of CGRP during headache induced by the NO donor glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) in 16 patients with chronic tension-type headache and 16 healthy controls. The subjects were randomly allocated to receive 0.5 microg/kg/min GTN or placebo over 20 min on two headache-free days. Blood samples were collected at baseline, 10, 20 and 60 min after start of infusion. Both patients and controls developed significantly stronger immediate headache on the GTN day than on the placebo day and the headache was significantly more pronounced in patients than in controls. There was no difference between the area under the CGRP curve (AUCCGRP) on GTN vs. placebo day in either patients (P=0.65) or controls (P=0.48). The AUCCGRP recorded on the GTN day did not differ between patients and controls (P=0.36). Both in patients and controls, CGRP levels changed significantly over time, on both the GTN and placebo days (P < 0.05). The present study indicates that NO-induced immediate headache is not associated with release of CGRP.","[{'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 46, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 67, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'tension-type headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 101, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D018781'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 164, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 176, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'primary headaches', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D051270'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 354, 'end': 362, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 380, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'tension-type headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 441, 'end': 462, 'mesh': 'D018781'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 588, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 763, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 779, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 819, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 967, 'end': 970, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1216, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1303, 'end': 1311, 'mesh': 'D006261'}]" +767,11078231,Myocardial ischemia due to coronary artery spasm during dobutamine stress echocardiography.,"Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is a useful and safe provocation test for myocardial ischemia.

The aim of the present study is to examine whether myocardial ischemia due to coronary spasm is induced by dobutamine. We performed DSE on 51 patients with coronary spastic angina but without significant fixed coronary artery stenosis. All patients had anginal attacks at rest with ST elevation on the electrocardiogram (variant angina). Coronary spasm was induced by intracoronary injection of acetylcholine, and no fixed coronary artery stenosis was documented on angiograms in all patients. DSE was performed with intravenous dobutamine infusion with an incremental doses of 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 microg/kg/min every 5 minutes. Of the 51 patients, 7 patients showed asynergy with ST elevation. All 7 patients (13.7%) had chest pain during asynergy, and both chest pain and electrocardiographic changes were preceded by asynergy. These findings indicate that dobutamine can provoke coronary spasm in some patients with coronary spastic angina. When DSE is performed to evaluate coronary artery disease, not only fixed coronary stenosis, but also coronary spasm should be considered as a genesis of asynergy.","[{'text': 'Myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'coronary artery spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D003329'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'Dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 175, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'coronary artery stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 349, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 426, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'coronary spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 453, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D003329'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'coronary spastic angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 531, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D000788'}, {'text': 'coronary artery stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 585, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'anginal', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 628, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D000787'}, {'text': 'variant angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 696, 'end': 710, 'mesh': 'D000788'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 770, 'end': 783, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'coronary artery stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 798, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 904, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1109, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1236, 'end': 1246, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'coronary spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1259, 'end': 1273, 'mesh': 'D003329'}, {'text': 'coronary spastic angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D000788'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'coronary stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1412, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'coronary spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'D003329'}]" +768,10523326,Nitric oxide synthase expression in the course of lead-induced hypertension.,"We recently showed elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS), reduced urinary excretion of NO metabolites (NOx), and increased NO sequestration as nitrotyrosine in various tissues in rats with lead-induced hypertension. This study was designed to discern whether the reduction in urinary NOx in lead-induced hypertension is, in part, due to depressed NO synthase (NOS) expression. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to a lead-treated group (given lead acetate, 100 ppm, in drinking water and regular rat chow), a group given lead and vitamin E-fortified chow, or a normal control group given either regular food and water or vitamin E-fortified food for 12 weeks. Tail blood pressure, urinary NOx excretion, plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), and endothelial and inducible NOS (eNOS and iNOS) isotypes in the aorta and kidney were measured. The lead-treated group exhibited a rise in blood pressure and plasma MDA concentration, a fall in urinary NOx excretion, and a paradoxical rise in vascular and renal tissue eNOS and iNOS expression. Vitamin E supplementation ameliorated hypertension, lowered plasma MDA concentration, and raised urinary NOx excretion while significantly lowering vascular, but not renal, tissue eNOS and iNOS expression. Vitamin E supplementation had no effect on either blood pressure, plasma MDA, or NOS expression in the control group. The study also revealed significant inhibition of NOS enzymatic activity by lead in cell-free preparations. In conclusion, lead-induced hypertension in this model was associated with a compensatory upregulation of renal and vascular eNOS and iNOS expression. This is, in part, due to ROS-mediated NO inactivation, lead-associated inhibition of NOS activity, and perhaps stimulatory actions of increased shear stress associated with hypertension.","[{'text': 'Nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 114, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 165, 'end': 167, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 201, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'nitrotyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 221, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'C002744'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 267, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 280, 'end': 292, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 369, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 382, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 425, 'end': 427, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 508, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'lead acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 534, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'C008261'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 802, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 819, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 927, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 992, 'end': 995, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'Vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1160, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'Vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1328, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1401, 'end': 1404, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1569, 'end': 1573, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1582, 'end': 1594, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1743, 'end': 1745, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1760, 'end': 1764, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1878, 'end': 1890, 'mesh': 'D006973'}]" +769,9867728,Risk for valvular heart disease among users of fenfluramine and dexfenfluramine who underwent echocardiography before use of medication.,"BACKGROUND: Because uncontrolled echocardiographic surveys suggested that up to 30% to 38% of users of fenfluramine and dexfenfluramine had valvular disease, these drugs were withdrawn from the market. OBJECTIVE: To determine the risk for new or worsening valvular abnormalities among users of fenfluramine or dexfenfluramine who underwent echocardiography before they began to take these medications. DESIGN: Cohort study. SETTING: Academic primary care practices. PATIENTS: 46 patients who used fenfluramine or dexfenfluramine for 14 days or more and had echocardiograms obtained before therapy. MEASUREMENTS: Follow-up echocardiography. The primary outcome was new or worsening valvulopathy, defined as progression of either aortic or mitral regurgitation by at least one degree of severity and disease that met U.S. Food and Drug Administration criteria (at least mild aortic regurgitation or moderate mitral regurgitation). RESULTS: Two patients (4.3% [95% CI, 0.6% to 14.8%]) receiving fenfluramine-phentermine developed valvular heart disease. One had baseline bicuspid aortic valve and mild aortic regurgitation that progressed to moderate regurgitation. The second patient developed new moderate aortic insufficiency.

However, the use of CBDCA higher-intensity schedules and the association with other neurotoxic drugs in polychemotherapy may cause some concern about its safety with respect to peripheral nervous system damage. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two different schedules of CBDCA administration (10 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg i.p. twice a week for nine times) were evaluated in Wistar rats. Neurotoxicity was assessed for behavioral (tail-flick test), neurophysiological (nerve conduction velocity in the tail nerve), morphological, morphometrical and analytical effects. RESULTS: CBDCA administration induced dose-dependent peripheral neurotoxicity. Pain perception and nerve conduction velocity in the tail were significantly impaired, particularly after the high-dose treatment. The dorsal root ganglia sensory neurons and, to a lesser extent, satellite cells showed the same changes as those induced by CDDP, mainly affecting the nucleus and nucleolus of ganglionic sensory neurons. Moreover, significant amounts of platinum were detected in the dorsal root ganglia and kidney after CBDCA treatment. CONCLUSIONS: CBDCA is neurotoxic in our model, and the type of pathological changes it induces are so closely similar to those caused by CDDP that it is probable that neurotoxicity is induced in the two drugs by the same mechanism. This model can be used alone or in combination with other drugs to explore the effect of CBDCA on the peripheral nervous system.","[{'text': 'Carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 104, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'CBDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 130, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 142, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'CDDP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 153, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 191, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'CBDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 231, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 295, 'end': 305, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'peripheral nervous system damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 388, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'CBDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 472, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'Neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 581, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'CBDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'peripheral neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 815, 'end': 839, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'Pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 841, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'CDDP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1097, 'end': 1101, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'platinum', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D010984'}, {'text': 'CBDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1282, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'CBDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1307, 'end': 1312, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1316, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'CDDP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1431, 'end': 1435, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'CBDCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1615, 'end': 1620, 'mesh': 'D016190'}]" +771,9579567,Iatrogenic risks of endometrial carcinoma after treatment for breast cancer in a large French case-control study. F d ration Nationale des Centres de Lutte Contre le Cancer (FNCLCC).,"Since tamoxifen is widely used in breast cancer treatment and has been proposed for the prevention of breast cancer, its endometrial iatrogenic effects must be carefully examined. We have investigated the association between endometrial cancer and tamoxifen use or other treatments in women treated for breast cancer in a case-control study. Cases of endometrial cancer diagnosed after breast cancer (n = 135) and 467 controls matched for age, year of diagnosis of breast cancer and hospital and survival time with an intact uterus were included. Women who had received tamoxifen were significantly more likely to have endometrial cancer diagnosed than those who had not (crude relative risk = 4.9, p = 0.0001). Univariate and adjusted analyses showed that the risk increased with the length of treatment (p = 0.0001) or the cumulative dose of tamoxifen received (p = 0.0001), irrespective of the daily dose. Women who had undergone pelvic radiotherapy also had a higher risk (crude relative risk = 7.8, p = 0.0001). After adjusting for confounding factors, the risk was higher for tamoxifen users (p = 0.0012), treatment for more than 3 years (all p < 0.03) and pelvic radiotherapy (p = 0.012). Women who had endometrial cancer and had received tamoxifen had more advanced disease and poorer prognosis than those with endometrial cancer who had not received this treatment. Our results suggest a causal role of tamoxifen in endometrial cancer, particularly when used as currently proposed for breast cancer prevention. Pelvic radiotherapy may be an additional iatrogenic factor for women with breast cancer. Endometrial cancers diagnosed in women treated with tamoxifen have poorer prognosis. Women who receive tamoxifen for breast cancer should be offered gynaecological surveillance during and after treatment. A long-term evaluation of the risk-benefit ratio of tamoxifen as a preventive treatment for breast cancer is clearly warranted.","[{'text': 'endometrial carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 62, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 191, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 287, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'endometrial cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 410, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 488, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'endometrial cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 536, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 571, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 650, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 755, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'endometrial cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 822, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1029, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1267, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'endometrial cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1413, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1431, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'advanced disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'D020178'}, {'text': 'endometrial cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1597, 'end': 1606, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'endometrial cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1610, 'end': 1628, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1679, 'end': 1692, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1779, 'end': 1792, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'Endometrial cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1794, 'end': 1813, 'mesh': 'D016889'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1846, 'end': 1855, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1897, 'end': 1906, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1911, 'end': 1924, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2051, 'end': 2060, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2091, 'end': 2104, 'mesh': 'D001943'}]" +772,9205462,Granulosa cell tumor of the ovary associated with antecedent tamoxifen use.,"BACKGROUND: Increased attention has been focused recently on the estrogenic effects of tamoxifen.

DESIGN: Fluoxetine, a serotonin reuptake inhibitor, was given to Wistar Albino rats for 98 days to produce hyperprolactinemia. The drug was given to two groups consisting of castrated and noncastrated rats and compared to two groups of castrated and noncastrated controls. Prolactin levels were measured and the uteri of the rats were removed for histopathological analysis at the end of 98 days. SETTING: Marmara University School of Medicine, Department of Histology and Embryology, Zeynep Kamil Women and Children's Hospital. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Serum prolactin levels, uterine histopathology. RESULTS: The prolactin levels of castrated and noncastrated groups treated with fluoxetine were statistically significantly higher when compared to their respective control groups. Histological studies revealed 11 cases of adenomyosis, all within the noncastrated group receiving fluoxetine. CONCLUSION: It was suggested that high serum prolactin levels cause degeneration of myometrial cells in the presence of ovarian steroids that results in a myometrial invasion by endometrial stroma.

In four patients hearing impairment on the side of the block was demonstrated after operation, in three measurements on the day of surgery and in one on the following day. The frequencies at which the impairment occurred varied between patients; in one only low frequencies (0.25-0.5 kHz) were involved. The maximum change in threshold was 35 dB at 6 kHz measured at the end of the continuous infusion of bupivacaine. This patient had hearing threshold changes (15-20 dB) at 6-10 kHz on the opposite side also.

The renal failure usually develops about 8-10 mth after start of mitomycin C treatment and the mortality is approximately 60% from renal failure or pulmonary edema. Renal lesions are similar to those seen in idiopathic HUS and include arteriolar fibrin thrombi, expanded subendothelial zones in glomerular capillary walls, ischemic wrinkling of glomerular basement membranes and mesangiolysis.

We prospectively performed continuous ambulatory ECG monitoring on 25 patients undergoing 5-FU infusion for treatment of solid tumors in order to assess the incidence of ischemic ST changes. Patients were monitored for 23 +/- 4 hours before 5-FU infusion, and 98 +/- 9 hours during 5-FU infusion. Anginal episodes were rare: only one patient had angina (during 5-FU infusion). However, asymptomatic ST changes (greater than or equal to 1 mm ST deviation) were common: six of 25 patients (24%) had ST changes before 5-FU infusion v 17 (68%) during 5-FU infusion (P less than .002). The incidence of ischemic episodes per patient per hour was 0.05 +/- 0.02 prior to 5-FU infusion v 0.13 +/- 0.03 during 5-FU infusion (P less than .001); the duration of ECG changes was 0.6 +/- 0.3 minutes per patient per hour before 5-FU v 1.9 +/- 0.5 minutes per patient per hour during 5-FU (P less than .01). ECG changes were more common among patients with known coronary artery disease. There were two cases of sudden death, both of which occurred at the end of the chemotherapy course. We conclude that 5-FU infusion is associated with a significant increase in silent ST segment deviation suggestive of ischemia, particularly among patients with coronary artery disease.

However, correction of the hemodynamic parameters did not improve renal function. Ifosfamide is a known nephrotoxic drug with demonstrated tubulopathies.

METHOD: Medically healthy 7- to 17-year-old males chronically treated, in a naturalistic setting, with risperidone were recruited for this cross-sectional study through child psychiatry outpatient clinics between November 2005 and June 2007. Anthropometric measurements and laboratory testing were conducted. The clinical diagnoses were based on chart review, and developmental and treatment history was obtained from the medical record. Volumetric BMD of the ultradistal radius was measured using peripheral quantitative computed tomography, and areal BMD of the lumbar spine was estimated using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. RESULTS: Hyperprolactinemia was present in 49% of 83 boys (n = 41) treated with risperidone for a mean of 2.9 years. Serum testosterone concentration increased with pubertal status but was not affected by hyperprolactinemia. As expected, bone mineral content and BMD increased with sexual maturity. After adjusting for the stage of sexual development and height and BMI z scores, serum prolactin was negatively associated with trabecular volumetric BMD at the ultradistal radius (P < .03). Controlling for relevant covariates, we also found treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) to be associated with lower trabecular BMD at the radius (P = .03) and BMD z score at the lumbar spine (P < .05). These findings became more marked when the analysis was restricted to non-Hispanic white patients. Of 13 documented fractures, 3 occurred after risperidone and SSRIs were started, and none occurred in patients with hyperprolactinemia. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to link risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia and SSRI treatment to lower BMD in children and adolescents. Future research should evaluate the longitudinal course of this adverse event to determine its temporal stability and whether a higher fracture rate ensues.","[{'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 46, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 228, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 420, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'Hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1171, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1514, 'end': 1523, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'fractures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1782, 'end': 1791, 'mesh': 'D050723'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1810, 'end': 1821, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1881, 'end': 1899, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1946, 'end': 1957, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1966, 'end': 1984, 'mesh': 'D006966'}]" +786,19707748,Seizures associated with levofloxacin: case presentation and literature review.,"PURPOSE: We present a case of a patient who developed seizures shortly after initiating treatment with levofloxacin and to discuss the potential drug-drug interactions related to the inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 in this case, as well as in other cases, of levofloxacin-induced seizures.

However, the involvement of a specific, terminal prostaglandin (PG) isomerase has not been evaluated. The present study was undertaken to assess lithium-induced polyuria in mice deficient in microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1). A 2-wk administration of LiCl (4 mmol.kg(-1).day(-1) ip) in mPGES-1 +/+ mice led to a marked polyuria with hyposmotic urine. This was associated with elevated renal mPGES-1 protein expression and increased urine PGE(2) excretion. In contrast, mPGES-1 -/- mice were largely resistant to lithium-induced polyuria and a urine concentrating defect, accompanied by nearly complete blockade of high urine PGE(2) and cAMP output. Immunoblotting, immunohistochemistry, and quantitative (q) RT-PCR consistently detected a significant decrease in aquaporin-2 (AQP2) protein expression in both the renal cortex and medulla of lithium-treated +/+ mice. This decrease was significantly attenuated in the -/- mice. qRT-PCR detected similar patterns of changes in AQP2 mRNA in the medulla but not in the cortex. Similarly, the total protein abundance of the Na-K-2Cl cotransporter (NKCC2) in the medulla but not in the cortex of the +/+ mice was significantly reduced by lithium treatment. In contrast, the dowregulation of renal medullary NKCC2 expression was significantly attenuated in the -/- mice. We conclude that mPGES-1-derived PGE(2) mediates lithium-induced polyuria likely via inhibition of AQP2 and NKCC2 expression.","[{'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 54, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D011141'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 132, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D011141'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 200, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 215, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 296, 'end': 303, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 312, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D011141'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 353, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D011458'}, {'text': 'LiCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 416, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D018021'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 484, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D011141'}, {'text': 'PGE(2)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 603, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 677, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 693, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D011141'}, {'text': 'PGE(2)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 790, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1236, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Cl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1240, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'D002713'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1347, 'end': 1354, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'PGE(2)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1518, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1528, 'end': 1535, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1544, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D011141'}]" +788,19289093,Identification of a simple and sensitive microplate method for the detection of oversulfated chondroitin sulfate in heparin products.,"Heparin is a commonly implemented anticoagulant used to treat critically ill patients.

Using both contaminated heparin products and the synthetically produced derivative, we showed that the OSCS produces dose-dependent hypotension in pigs. The no observed effect level (NOEL) for this contaminant appears to be approximately 1mg/kg, corresponding to a contamination level of approximately 3%. We also demonstrated that OSCS can be identified in heparin products using a simple, inexpensive, commercially available heparin enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kit that has a limit of detection of approximately 0.1%, well below the NOEL.

To elucidate the possible role of the kinin B1 receptor (B1R) during the development of DOX cardiomyopathy, we studied B1R knockout mice (B1R(-/-)) by investigating cardiac inflammation and apoptosis after induction of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. DOX control mice showed cardiac dysfunction measured by pressure-volume loops in vivo. This was associated with a reduced activation state of AKT, as well as an increased bax/bcl2 ratio in Western blots, indicating cardiac apoptosis. Furthermore, mRNA levels of the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin 6 were increased in the cardiac tissue. In DOX B1R(-/-) mice, cardiac dysfunction was improved compared to DOX control mice, which was associated with normalization of the bax/bcl-2 ratio and interleukin 6, as well as AKT activation state. These findings suggest that B1R is detrimental in DOX cardiomyopathy in that it mediates the inflammatory response and apoptosis. These insights might have useful implications for future studies utilizing B1R antagonists for treatment of human DOX cardiomyopathy.","[{'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 35, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 165, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 167, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 190, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 351, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 355, 'end': 369, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 436, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 494, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 510, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 534, 'end': 553, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'cardiac apoptosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 725, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 875, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 920, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1300, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D009202'}]" +790,18405372,Hepatotoxicity associated with sulfasalazine in inflammatory arthritis: A case series from a local surveillance of serious adverse events.,"BACKGROUND: Spontaneous reporting systems for adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are handicapped by under-reporting and limited detail on individual cases. We report an investigation from a local surveillance for serious adverse drug reactions associated with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs that was triggered by the occurrence of liver failure in two of our patients. METHODS: Serious ADR reports have been solicited from local clinicians by regular postcards over the past seven years. Patients', who had hepatotoxicity on sulfasalazine and met a definition of a serious ADR, were identified. Two clinicians reviewed structured case reports and assessed causality by consensus and by using a causality assessment instrument. The likely frequency of hepatotoxicity with sulfasalazine was estimated by making a series of conservative assumptions. RESULTS: Ten cases were identified: eight occurred during surveillance. Eight patients were hospitalised, two in hepatic failure - one died after a liver transplant. All but one event occurred within 6 weeks of treatment. Seven patients had a skin rash, three eosinophilia and one interstitial nephritis. Five patients were of Black British of African or Caribbean descent. Liver enzymes showed a hepatocellular pattern in four cases and a mixed pattern in six. Drug-related hepatotoxicity was judged probable or highly probable in 8 patients. The likely frequency of serious hepatotoxicity with sulfasalazine was estimated at 0.4% of treated patients.

Strategies of extended-interval and conventional dosing have been utilized extensively in the general medical population; however, data are lacking to support a dosing strategy in the hematology/oncology population. To evaluate amikacin-associated nephrotoxicity in an adult hematology/oncology population, a prospective, randomized, open-label trial was conducted at a university-affiliated medical center. Forty patients with a diagnosis consistent with a hematologic/oncologic disorder that required treatment with an aminoglycoside were randomized to either conventional or extended-interval amikacin. The occurrence of nephrotoxicity by means of an increase in serum creatinine and evaluation of efficacy via amikacin serum concentrations with respective pathogens were assessed. The occurrence of nephrotoxicity was similar between the conventional and extended-interval groups, at 10% and 5%, respectively (P = 1.00). Six patients in the conventional group had a positive culture, compared with none in the extended-interval group (P = 0.002). The occurrence of nephrotoxicity was similar between the two dosing regimens, but the distribution of risk factors was variable between the two groups. Efficacy could not be assessed.","[{'text': 'amikacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D000583'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Amikacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D000583'}, {'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 95, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'febrile neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'infections', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 220, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'amikacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 460, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D000583'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 753, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'amikacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 828, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D000583'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 856, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 904, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'amikacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 946, 'end': 954, 'mesh': 'D000583'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +792,16574713,Memory function and serotonin transporter promoter gene polymorphism in ecstasy (MDMA) users.,"Although 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or ecstasy) has been shown to damage brain serotonin (5-HT) neurons in animals and possibly humans, little is known about the long-term consequences of MDMA-induced 5-HT neurotoxic lesions on functions in which 5-HT is involved, such as cognitive function. Because 5-HT transporters play a key element in the regulation of synaptic 5-HT transmission it may be important to control for the potential covariance effect of a polymorphism in the 5-HT transporter promoter gene region (5-HTTLPR) when studying the effects of MDMA as well as cognitive functioning. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of moderate and heavy MDMA use on cognitive function, as well as the effects of long-term abstention from MDMA, in subjects genotyped for 5-HTTLPR. A second aim of the study was to determine whether these effects differ for females and males. Fifteen moderate MDMA users (<55 lifetime tablets), 22 heavy MDMA+ users (>55 lifetime tablets), 16 ex-MDMA+ users (last tablet > 1 year ago) and 13 controls were compared on a battery of neuropsychological tests. DNA from peripheral nuclear blood cells was genotyped for 5-HTTLPR using standard polymerase chain reaction methods.A significant group effect was observed only on memory function tasks (p = 0.04) but not on reaction times (p = 0.61) or attention/executive functioning (p = 0.59). Heavy and ex-MDMA+ users performed significantly poorer on memory tasks than controls. In contrast, no evidence of memory impairment was observed in moderate MDMA users. No significant effect of 5-HTTLPR or gender was observed. While the use of MDMA in quantities that may be considered ""moderate"" is not associated with impaired memory functioning, heavy use of MDMA use may lead to long lasting memory impairments. No effect of 5-HTTLPR or gender on memory function or MDMA use was observed.","[{'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': '3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 142, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 146, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 197, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 295, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 313, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 354, 'end': 358, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 776, 'end': 780, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 860, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1018, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1058, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1104, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1505, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1624, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1650, 'end': 1654, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1741, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'impaired memory functioning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1813, 'end': 1840, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1855, 'end': 1859, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'memory impairments', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1889, 'end': 1907, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1963, 'end': 1967, 'mesh': 'D018817'}]" +793,15638391,Aging process of epithelial cells of the rat prostate lateral lobe in experimental hyperprolactinemia induced by haloperidol.,"The aim of the study was to examine the influence of hyperprolactinemia, induced by haloperidol (HAL) on age related morphology and function changes of epithelial cells in rat prostate lateral lobe.

These observations led us to hypothesize that a high intake of vitamin C in diabetic persons might promote atherosclerosis. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to examine the relation between vitamin C intake and mortality from cardiovascular disease. DESIGN: We studied the relation between vitamin C intake and mortality from total cardiovascular disease (n = 281), coronary artery disease (n = 175), and stroke (n = 57) in 1923 postmenopausal women who reported being diabetic at baseline. Diet was assessed with a food-frequency questionnaire at baseline, and subjects initially free of coronary artery disease were prospectively followed for 15 y. RESULTS: After adjustment for cardiovascular disease risk factors, type of diabetes medication used, duration of diabetes, and intakes of folate, vitamin E, and beta-carotene, the adjusted relative risks of total cardiovascular disease mortality were 1.0, 0.97, 1.11, 1.47, and 1.84 (P for trend < 0.01) across quintiles of total vitamin C intake from food and supplements. Adjusted relative risks of coronary artery disease were 1.0, 0.81, 0.99, 1.26, and 1.91 (P for trend = 0.01) and of stroke were 1.0, 0.52, 1.23, 2.22, and 2.57 (P for trend < 0.01). When dietary and supplemental vitamin C were analyzed separately, only supplemental vitamin C showed a positive association with mortality endpoints. Vitamin C intake was unrelated to mortality from cardiovascular disease in the nondiabetic subjects at baseline. CONCLUSION: A high vitamin C intake from supplements is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease mortality in postmenopausal women with diabetes.","[{'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 79, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'Vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 299, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'diabetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 312, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'atherosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 343, 'end': 358, 'mesh': 'D050197'}, {'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 421, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 457, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 521, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 563, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 597, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 636, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'diabetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 700, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 820, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 912, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 995, 'end': 1003, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'folate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'beta-carotene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'D019207'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1212, 'end': 1221, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1283, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1372, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1468, 'end': 1477, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'Vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1588, 'end': 1597, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1637, 'end': 1659, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'vitamin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1720, 'end': 1729, 'mesh': 'D001205'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1794, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1856, 'end': 1864, 'mesh': 'D003920'}]" +795,12851669,Absolute and attributable risk of venous thromboembolism in women on combined cyproterone acetate and ethinylestradiol.,"OBJECTIVE: To achieve absolute risk estimates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) among women on cyproterone acetate plus ethinylestradiol (CPA/EE), and among women on combined oral contraceptives (COCs). METHODS: From the Danish National Register of Patients (NRP), 1996 to 1998, the records of 1.1 million Danish women, ages 15 to 44 years, were searched for evidence of VTE. COC use was ascertained through mailed questionnaires. Sales statistics of COCs and CPA/EE were provided through Danish Drug Statistics. RESULTS: During the time frame of the study, 330 women were found to have had VTE while on COCs. Of these women, 67 were on levonorgestrel-containing COCs. Eleven were on CPA/EE. The corresponding absolute risk of VTE was 3.4 (range, 3.1-3.8) per 10 000 women years among the women on COCs, 4.2 (range, 3.2-5.2) per 10 000 women years among women on levonorgestrel-containing COCs, and 3.1 (range, 1.3-4.9) per 10 000 women years among the women on CPA/EE.

A significant increase in the hepatic and brain P450 monooxygenases was also observed when the duration of exposure of low dose (2.5 mg/kg) of lindane was increased from 5 days to 15 or 21 days. As observed with different doses, the magnitude of induction in the activity of P450 monooxygenases was several fold higher in liver microsomes when compared with the brain. Western blotting studies have indicated that the increase in the P450 enzymes could be due to the increase in the expression of P450 1A1/1A2, 2B1/2B2 and 2E1 isoenzymes. In vitro studies using organic inhibitors specific for individual P450 isoenzymes and antibody inhibition experiments have further demonstrated that the increase in the activity of PROD, EROD and NDMA-d are due to the increase in the levels of P450 2B1/2B2, 1A1/1A2 and 2E1 isoenzymes, respectively. Induction studies have further shown that while pretreatment of 3-methylcholanthrene (MC), an inducer of P4501A1/1A2, did not produce any significant effect in the incidence of lindane induced convulsions, pretreatment with phenobarbital (PB), an inducer of P450 2B1/2B2 or ethanol, an inducer of P450 2E1 catalysed reactions, significantly increased the incidence of lindane induced convulsions. Similarly, when the P450-mediated metabolism of lindane was blocked by cobalt chloride incidence of convulsions was increased in animals treated with lindane indicating that lindane per se or its metabolites formed by PB or ethanol inducible P450 isoenzymes are involved in its neurobehavioral toxicity.","[{'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 108, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 146, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'N-nitrosodimethylamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 367, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D004128'}, {'text': 'NDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 407, 'mesh': 'D004128'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 578, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'NDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1174, 'mesh': 'D004128'}, {'text': '3-methylcholanthrene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1338, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D008748'}, {'text': 'MC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1360, 'end': 1362, 'mesh': 'D008748'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1458, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1467, 'end': 1478, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1511, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1555, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1642, 'end': 1649, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1658, 'end': 1669, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1719, 'end': 1726, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'cobalt chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1742, 'end': 1757, 'mesh': 'C018021'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1821, 'end': 1828, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1845, 'end': 1852, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1895, 'end': 1902, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1965, 'end': 1973, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +797,12745515,Seizure associated with sleep deprivation and sustained-release bupropion.,"This case report describes a generalized seizure associated with sustained-release bupropion use and sleep deprivation.

Whether iso-osmolar contrast medium is less nephrotoxic than low-osmolar contrast medium in high-risk patients is uncertain. METHODS: We conducted a randomized, double-blind, prospective, multicenter study comparing the nephrotoxic effects of an iso-osmolar, dimeric, nonionic contrast medium, iodixanol, with those of a low-osmolar, nonionic, monomeric contrast medium, iohexol. The study involved 129 patients with diabetes with serum creatinine concentrations of 1.5 to 3.5 mg per deciliter who underwent coronary or aortofemoral angiography. The primary end point was the peak increase from base line in the creatinine concentration during the three days after angiography. Other end points were an increase in the creatinine concentration of 0.5 mg per deciliter or more, an increase of 1.0 mg per deciliter or more, and a change in the creatinine concentration from day 0 to day 7. RESULTS: The creatinine concentration increased significantly less in patients who received iodixanol. From day 0 to day 3, the mean peak increase in creatinine was 0.13 mg per deciliter in the iodixanol group and 0.55 mg per deciliter in the iohexol group (P=0.001; the increase with iodixanol minus the increase with iohexol, -0.42 mg per deciliter [95 percent confidence interval, -0.73 to -0.22]). Two of the 64 patients in the iodixanol group (3 percent) had an increase in the creatinine concentration of 0.5 mg per deciliter or more, as compared with 17 of the 65 patients in the iohexol group (26 percent) (P=0.002; odds ratio for such an increase in the iodixanol group, 0.09 [95 percent confidence interval, 0.02 to 0.41]). No patient receiving iodixanol had an increase of 1.0 mg per deciliter or more, but 10 patients in the iohexol group (15 percent) did. The mean change in the creatinine concentration from day 0 to day 7 was 0.07 mg per deciliter in the iodixanol group and 0.24 mg per deciliter in the iohexol group (P=0.003; value in the iodixanol group minus the value in the iohexol group, -0.17 mg per deciliter [95 percent confidence interval, -0.34 to -0.07]). CONCLUSIONS: Nephropathy induced by contrast medium may be less likely to develop in high-risk patients when iodixanol is used rather than a low-osmolar, nonionic contrast medium.","[{'text': 'Nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 129, 'end': 140, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 362, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 436, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 559, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 579, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 861, 'end': 871, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 984, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1053, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1280, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1315, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1462, 'end': 1471, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1513, 'end': 1523, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1617, 'end': 1624, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1693, 'end': 1702, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1785, 'end': 1794, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1867, 'end': 1874, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1922, 'end': 1932, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2000, 'end': 2009, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2049, 'end': 2056, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2086, 'end': 2095, 'mesh': 'C044834'}, {'text': 'iohexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2125, 'end': 2132, 'mesh': 'D007472'}, {'text': 'Nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2227, 'end': 2238, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'iodixanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2323, 'end': 2332, 'mesh': 'C044834'}]" +799,9514561,Experimental cranial pain elicited by capsaicin: a PET study.,"Using a positron emission tomography (PET) study it was shown recently that in migraine without aura certain areas in the brain stem were activated during the headache state, but not in the headache free interval. It was suggested that this brain stem activation is inherent to the migraine attack itself and represents the so called 'migraine generator'. To test this hypothesis we performed an experimental pain study in seven healthy volunteers, using the same positioning in the PET scanner as in the migraine patients. A small amount of capsaicin was administered subcutaneously in the right forehead to evoke a burning painful sensation in the first division of the trigeminal nerve. Increases of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) were found bilaterally in the insula, in the anterior cingulate cortex, the cavernous sinus and the cerebellum. Using the same stereotactic space limits as in the above mentioned migraine study no brain stem activation was found in the acute pain state compared to the pain free state. The increase of activation in the region of the cavernous sinus however, suggests that this structure is more likely to be involved in trigeminal transmitted pain as such, rather than in a specific type of headache as was suggested for cluster headache.","[{'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 21, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 221, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 252, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 344, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 397, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 471, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 567, 'end': 575, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'painful', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 687, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 980, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1047, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1070, 'end': 1074, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1245, 'end': 1249, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'cluster headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1323, 'end': 1339, 'mesh': 'D003027'}]" +800,9165568,Neuroleptic malignant syndrome with risperidone.,"Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is thought to be a result of dopamine D2 receptor blockade in the striatum of the basal ganglia. Risperidone, a benzisoxazole derivative antipsychotic, has high serotonin 5-HT2 receptor blockade and dose-related D2 receptor blockade. The high ratio is believed to impart the low frequency of extrapyramidal symptoms with risperidone at low dosages. With this low frequency of extrapyramidal symptoms, it was thought the frequency of neuroleptic malignant syndrome might also be lowered. A 73-year-old woman developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome after monotherapy with risperidone. The syndrome reversed after discontinuing risperidone and starting treatment with dantrolene and bromocriptine. It appears that the protection from extrapyramidal side effects observed with risperidone does not ensure protection from neuroleptic malignant syndrome.","[{'text': 'Neuroleptic malignant syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D009459'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'Neuroleptic malignant syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D009459'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 109, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'Risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 177, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'benzisoxazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'C441200'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 241, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'extrapyramidal symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 372, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 401, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'extrapyramidal symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'neuroleptic malignant syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 513, 'end': 543, 'mesh': 'D009459'}, {'text': 'neuroleptic malignant syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 597, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D009459'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 651, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 706, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'dantrolene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D003620'}, {'text': 'bromocriptine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 761, 'end': 774, 'mesh': 'D001971'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 854, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'neuroleptic malignant syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 898, 'end': 928, 'mesh': 'D009459'}]" +801,9154656,Hepatic and extrahepatic angiotensinogen gene expression in rats with acute nephrotic syndrome.,"Plasma concentration and urine excretion of the renin-angiotensin system proteins are altered in rats with nephrotic syndrome (NS).

Although a great urinary excretion and half-normal plasma levels of Ao were observed on day 6 after PAN injection, when NS was clearly established, hepatic Ao mRNA levels did not change. Furthermore, the Ao mRNA levels did not change in any of the extrahepatic tissues studied on day 6, nor did its hepatic levels at days 1, 3, 5, or 7 after PAN injection.

Thus, caffeine (3.3 mg/kg) versus placebo was tested in 48 healthy men (aged 20 to 35 years) selected after screening on 2 separate occasions. Borderline hypertensive men (n = 24) were selected with screening systolic blood pressure (BP) of 140 to 160 mm Hg and/or diastolic BP 90 to 99 mm Hg. Low-risk controls (n = 24) reported no parental history of hypertension and had screening BP < 130/85 mm Hg. Participants were then tested on 2 occasions after 12-hour abstinence from caffeine in each of 2 protocols; this required a total of 4 laboratory visits. Caffeine-induced changes in diastolic BP were 2 to 3 times larger in borderline subjects than in controls (+8.4 vs +3.8 mm Hg, p < 0.0001), and were attributable to larger changes in impedance-derived measures of systemic vascular resistance (+135 vs +45 dynes.s.cm-5, p < 0.004). These findings were consistent and reached significance in both protocols. The percentage of borderline subjects in whom diastolic BP changes exceeded the median control response was 96%. Consequently, whereas all participants exhibited normotensive levels during the resting predrug baseline, 33% of borderline subjects achieved hypertensive BP levels after caffeine ingestion. Thus, in borderline hypertensive men, exaggerated responses to caffeine were: selective for diastolic BP, consistent with greater vasoconstriction, replicated in 2 protocols, and representative of nearly all borderline hypertensives. We suspect that the potential for caffeine to stabilize high resistance states in susceptible persons suggests that its use may facilitate their disease progression, as well as hinder accurate diagnosis and treatment.","[{'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 78, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 140, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 157, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 359, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 558, 'end': 570, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 683, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'Caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 762, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1373, 'end': 1385, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1402, 'end': 1410, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1442, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1485, 'end': 1493, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'hypertensives', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1641, 'end': 1654, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1690, 'end': 1698, 'mesh': 'D002110'}]" +805,8111719,Hallucinations and ifosfamide-induced neurotoxicity.,"BACKGROUND: Hallucinations as a symptom of central neurotoxicity are a known but poorly described side effect of ifosfamide. Most cases of ifosfamide-induced hallucinations have been reported with other mental status changes. METHODS: The authors interviewed six persons with ifosfamide-induced hallucinations in the presence of a clear sensorium. All patients were receiving high-dose ifosfamide as part of their bone marrow transplant procedure. RESULTS: Hallucinations occurred only when the patient's eyes were closed and, in all but one case, were reported as disturbing or frightening. Underreporting of these hallucinations by patients is likely. CONCLUSIONS: Hallucinations may be the sole or first manifestation of neurotoxicity. The incidence may be dose and infusion-time related. The clinician should be alerted for possible ifosfamide-induced hallucinations, which may occur without other signs of neurotoxicity. ""Eyes-closed"" hallucinatory experiences appear to be an unusual feature of this presentation. Patients anxious about this experience respond well to support and education about this occurrence. Optimal pharmacologic management of disturbed patients is unclear. If agitation becomes marked, high-potency neuroleptics (i.e., haloperidol) may be effective.","[{'text': 'Hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 38, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'Hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 65, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 211, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 329, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 348, 'end': 362, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'Hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 510, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'Hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 720, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 777, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 890, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 909, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 964, 'end': 977, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'hallucinatory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 993, 'end': 1006, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1243, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'D006220'}]" +806,7059267,Chlorpropamide-induced optic neuropathy.,"A 65-year-old woman with adult-onset diabetes treated with chlorpropamide (Diabenese) had a toxic optic neuropathy that resolved with discontinuation of chlorpropamide therapy.

In 42 of these patients, data were examined for factors associated with clinical outcome. Variables evaluated included patient weight, age, sex, serum creatinine level, creatinine clearance, duration of therapy, total dose, mean daily dose, organism minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), mean peak levels, mean trough levels, mean area under the serum concentration-time curve (AUC), total AUC, mean AUC greater than MIC, total AUC greater than MIC, mean Schumacher's intensity factor (IF), total IF, In (mean maximum concentration [Cmax]/MIC). Model-dependent pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by computer based on a one-compartment model. When the parameters were examined individually, duration of therapy and total AUC correlated significantly (P less than .05) with nephrotoxicity. In contrast, a stepwise discriminant function analysis identified only duration of therapy (P less than .001) as an important factor. Based on this model and on Bayes' theorem, the predictive accuracy of identifying ""nephrotoxic"" patients increased from 0.17 to 0.39. When examined individually, mean IF, MIC, total dose, mean daily dose, and ln (mean Cmax/MIC) correlated significantly (P less than .05) with cure. In contrast, a simultaneous multivariable analysis identified IF, MIC, and total dose according to one model and ln (mean Cmax/MIC) according to a second statistical model of parameters selected to have the greatest prospective value.

In group II, cyclosporine was started only after the procedure at a lower dosage and was complemented by azathioprine, which was used for the first postoperative week. Group II showed a better perioperative renal function as determined by serum blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels. Group II also showed a significant decrease of chronic nephrotoxicity secondary to long-term therapy with cyclosporine. Despite this improvement in late renal function, group II still shows a slow rise in serum creatinine.

Anesthesia was maintained with fentanyl, nitrous oxide, oxygen, and isoflurane. Hypotension was induced for 236.9 +/- 15.1 min by increasing the isoflurane inspired concentration to maintain a mean arterial pressure of 59.8 +/- 0.4 mmHg. GFR and ERPF decreased with the induction of anesthesia but not significantly more during hypotension. Postoperatively, ERPF returned to preoperative values, whereas GFR was higher than preoperative values.

The two metabolic phenotypes, extensive (EM) and poor metabolizers (PM), show different stereoselective metabolism, resulting in apparently higher beta-1 adrenoceptor antagonistic potency of racemic metoprolol in EMs. We investigated if the latter also applies to the beta-2 adrenoceptor antagonism by metoprolol. The drug effect studied was the antagonism by metoprolol of terbutaline-induced hypokalemia. By using pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic modeling the pharmacodynamics of racemic metoprolol and the active S-isomer, were quantitated in EMs and PMs in terms of IC50 values, representing metoprolol plasma concentrations resulting in half-maximum receptor occupancy. Six EMs received 0.5 mg of terbutaline s.c. on two different occasions: 1) 1 hr after administration of a placebo and 2) 1 hr after 150 mg of metoprolol p.o. Five PMs were studied according to the same protocol, except for a higher terbutaline dose (0.75 mg) on day 2. Blood samples for the analysis of plasma potassium, terbutaline, metoprolol (racemic, R- and S-isomer), and alpha-hydroxymetoprolol concentrations were taken at regular time intervals, during 8 hr after metoprolol. In PMs, metoprolol increased the terbutaline area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve (+67%). Higher metoprolol/alpha-hydroxymetoprolol ratios in PMs were predictive for higher R-/S-isomer ratios of unchanged drug.

We describe a patient who developed anemia while receiving intravenous cefotetan. Cefotetan-dependent antibodies were detected in the patient's serum and in an eluate prepared from his red blood cells. The eluate also reacted weakly with red blood cells in the absence of cefotetan, suggesting the concomitant formation of warm-reactive autoantibodies. These observations, in conjunction with clinical and laboratory evidence of extravascular hemolysis, are consistent with drug-induced hemolytic anemia, possibly involving both drug-adsorption and autoantibody formation mechanisms.

The patients had developed transient renal failure after the intermittent administration of rifampicin. The stage of olig-anuria lasted for 1-3 weeks, and five of the patients were treated by hemodialysis. Two of the patients died due to unrelated causes during the follow-up period. The four patients re-examined were clinically cured. Pathologic findings by light microscopy and immunofluorescence at biopsy were scarce. Nothing abnormal was seen by electron microscopy in two of the cases studied. Renal function was normal. In three cases the excretion at 131I-hippuran renography was slightly slowed.

Clinical hepatitis developed in 1.4% of HBIG and in 5.9% of ISG recipients (P = 0.016), and seroconversion (anti-HBs) occurred in 5.6% and 20.7% of them respectively (P less than 0.001). Mild and transient side-effects were noted in 3.0% of ISG and in 3.2% of HBIG recipients. Available donor sera were examined for DNA polymerase (DNAP) and e antigen and antibody (HBeAg; anti-HBE). Both DNAP and HBeAg showed a highly statistically significant correlation with the infectivity of HBsAg-positive donors. Hepatitis B immune globulin remained significantly superior to ISG in preventing type B hepatitis even when the analysis was confined to these two high-risk subgroups.

The most common cause of this syndrome is an interaction between a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) and a specific serotonin reuptake inhibitor. Venlafaxine is a new antidepressant agent that inhibits the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine. We report a venlafaxine-MAOI interaction that resulted in the serotonin syndrome in a 23-y-old male who was taking tranylcypromine for depression. He had been well until the morning of presentation when he took 1/2 tab of venlafaxine. Within 2 h he became confused with jerking movements of his extremities, tremors and rigidity. He was brought directly to a hospital where he was found to be agitated and confused with shivering, myoclonic jerks, rigidity, salivation and diaphoresis. His pupils were 7 mm and sluggishly reactive to light. Vital signs were: blood pressure 120/67 mm Hg, heart rate 127/min, respiratory rate 28/min, and temperature 97 F. After 180 mg of diazepam i.v. he remained tremulous with muscle rigidity and clenched jaws. He was intubated for airway protection and because of hypoventilation, and was paralyzed to control muscle rigidity. His subsequent course was remarkable for non-immune thrombocytopenia which resolved. The patient's maximal temperature was 101.2 F and his CPK remained < 500 units/L with no other evidence of rhabdomyolysis. His mental status normalized and he was transferred to a psychiatry ward. This patient survived without sequelae due to the aggressive sedation and neuromuscular paralysis.","[{'text': 'Serotonin syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D020230'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'tranylcypromine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D014191'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 137, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 182, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'salivation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D012798'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 211, 'end': 220, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 222, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 248, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 367, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'Venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 397, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 469, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 483, 'end': 497, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 511, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'serotonin syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 561, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D020230'}, {'text': 'tranylcypromine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D014191'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 634, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'venlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 721, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'C047426'}, {'text': 'tremors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 807, 'end': 814, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 819, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'myoclonic jerks', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 930, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 947, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'salivation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 967, 'mesh': 'D012798'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'hypoventilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1300, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D007040'}, {'text': 'paralyzed', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1334, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1346, 'end': 1361, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1415, 'end': 1431, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'rhabdomyolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1555, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D012206'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1733, 'end': 1742, 'mesh': 'D010243'}]" +817,8106150,Effect of nondopaminergic drugs on L-dopa-induced dyskinesias in MPTP-treated monkeys.,"A group of four monkeys was rendered parkinsonian with the toxin MPTP.

A series of agents acting primarily on neurotransmitters other than dopamine were then tested in combination with L-DOPA to see if the dyskinetic movements would be modified. Several drugs, including clonidine, physostigmine, methysergide, 5-MDOT, propranolol, and MK-801, markedly reduced the dyskinetic movements but at the cost of a return of parkinsonian symptomatology. However, yohimbine and meperidine reduced predominantly the dyskinetic movements. Baclofen was also useful in one monkey against a more dystonic form of dyskinesia.

RESULTS: Of the 206 dogs treated with CCNU, 185 met the inclusion criteria for at least one class of toxicity. CCNU was used most commonly in the treatment of lymphoma, mast cell tumour, brain tumour, histiocytic tumours and epitheliotropic lymphoma. Throughout treatment, 56.9% of dogs experienced neutropenia, 34.2% experienced anaemia and 14.2% experienced thrombocytopenia. Gastrointestinal toxicosis was detected in 37.8% of dogs, the most common sign of which was vomiting (24.3%). Potential renal toxicity and elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) concentration were reported in 12.2% and 48.8% of dogs, respectively. The incidence of hepatic failure was 1.2%.

Steroids with the 3-hydroxy group in the alpha-position and 5-H in the alpha- or beta-configurations were highly effective in protecting against pilocarpine (416 mg/kg, s.c.)-induced limbic motor seizures and status epilepticus (ED50 values, 7.0-18.7 mg/kg, i.p.). The corresponding epimers with the 3-hydroxy group in the beta-position were also effective but less potent (ED50 values, 33.8-63.5, i.p.). Although the neuroactive steroids were considerably less potent than the benzodiazepine clonazepam in protecting against pilocarpine seizures, steroids with the 5 alpha,3 alpha-configuration had comparable or higher protective index values (TD50 for motor impairment divided by ED50 for seizure protection) than clonazepam, indicating that some neuroactive steroids may have lower relative toxicity. Steroids with the 5 alpha,3 alpha- or 5 beta,3 alpha-configurations also produced a dose-dependent delay in the onset of limbic seizures induced by kainic acid (32 mg/kg, s.c.), but did not completely protect against the seizures. However, when a second dose of the steroid was administered 1 hr after the first dose, complete protection from the kainic acid-induced limbic seizures and status epilepticus was obtained. The steroids also caused a dose-dependent delay in NMDA (257 mg/kg, s.c.)-induced lethality, but did not completely protect against NMDA seizures or lethality. We conclude that neuroactive steroids are highly effective in protecting against pilocarpine- and kainic acid-induced seizures and status epilepticus in mice, and may be of utility in the treatment of some forms of status epilepticus in humans.","[{'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'kainic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 94, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'progesterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': '3 alpha-hydroxy pregnane-20-ones', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': 'deoxycorticosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 218, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D003900'}, {'text': '3 alpha-hydroxy pregnane-21-diol-20-ones', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 239, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D003900'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 353, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'kainic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 367, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 384, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 406, 'end': 410, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 420, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 438, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 634, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 647, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 868, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 916, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'clonazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 931, 'end': 941, 'mesh': 'D002998'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 964, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 976, 'end': 984, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 986, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1130, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'clonazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1165, 'mesh': 'D002998'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1241, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1243, 'end': 1251, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1371, 'end': 1379, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'kainic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1464, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1509, 'end': 1516, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'kainic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1590, 'end': 1601, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1617, 'end': 1625, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1630, 'end': 1648, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1667, 'end': 1675, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1714, 'end': 1718, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1795, 'end': 1799, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1800, 'end': 1808, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1852, 'end': 1860, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1904, 'end': 1915, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'kainic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1921, 'end': 1932, 'mesh': 'D007608'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1941, 'end': 1949, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1954, 'end': 1972, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2038, 'end': 2056, 'mesh': 'D013226'}]" +820,7905523,The safety and efficacy of combination N-butyl-deoxynojirimycin (SC-48334) and zidovudine in patients with HIV-1 infection and 200-500 CD4 cells/mm3.,"We conducted a double-blind, randomized phase II study to evaluate the safety and activity of combination therapy with N-butyl-deoxynojirimycin (SC-48334) (an alpha-glucosidase I inhibitor) and zidovudine versus zidovudine alone. Patients with 200 to 500 CD4 cells/mm3 who tolerated < or = 12 weeks of prior zidovudine therapy received SC-48334 (1000 mg every 8 h) and zidovudine (100 mg every 8 h) or zidovudine and placebo. Sixty patients received combination therapy and 58, zidovudine and placebo. Twenty-three patients (38%) and 15 (26%), in the combination and zidovudine groups, respectively, discontinued therapy (p = 0.15). The mean SC-48334 steady-state trough level (4.04 +/- 0.99 micrograms/ml) was below the in vitro inhibitory concentration for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The mean increase in CD4 cells at week 4 was 73.8 cells/mm3 and 52.4 cells/mm3 for the combination and zidovudine groups, respectively (p > 0.36). For patients with prior zidovudine therapy, the mean change in CD4 cells in the combination and zidovudine groups was 63.7 cells/mm3 and 4.9 cells/mm3 at week 8 and 6.8 cells/mm3 and -45.1 cells/mm3 at week 16, respectively. The number of patients with suppression of HIV p24 antigenemia in the combination and zidovudine groups was six (40%) and two (11%) at week 4 (p = 0.10) and five (45%) and two (14%) at week 24 (p = 0.08), respectively.

Recent preclinical studies have focused on the intracellular formation of CB 3717 polyglutamates. Following a 12-hour exposure of L1210 cells to 50 microM [3H]CB 3717, 30% of the extractable radioactivity could be accounted for as CB 3717 tetra- and pentaglutamate, as determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) analyses. As inhibitors of isolated L1210 TS, CB 3717 di-, tri-, tetra- and pentaglutamate are 26-, 87-, 119- and 114-fold more potent than CB 3717, respectively, and their formation may, therefore, be an important determinant of CB 3717 cytotoxicity. In early clinical studies with CB 3717, activity has been seen in breast cancer, ovarian cancer, hepatoma, and mesothelioma. Toxicities included hepatotoxicity, malaise, and dose-limiting nephrotoxicity. This latter effect is thought to be due to drug precipitation within the renal tubule as a result of the poor solubility of CB 3717 under acidic conditions. In an attempt to overcome this problem, a clinical trial of CB 3717 administered with alkaline diuresis is under way. Preliminary results at 400 and 500 mg/m2 suggest that a reduction in nephrotoxicity may have been achieved with only 1 instance of renal toxicity in 10 patients. Hepatotoxicity and malaise are again the most frequent side effects. Evidence of antitumor activity has been seen in 3 patients. Pharmacokinetic investigations have shown that alkaline diuresis does not alter CB 3717 plasma levels or urinary excretion and that satisfactory urinary alkalinization can be readily achieved.","[{'text': 'N10-propargyl-5,8-dideazafolic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 117, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 127, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'N10-propargyl-5,8-dideazafolic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 136, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'cytotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 237, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 382, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 467, 'end': 474, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 539, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 774, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 864, 'end': 871, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'cytotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 872, 'end': 884, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 917, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 952, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'ovarian cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 967, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D010051'}, {'text': 'hepatoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 983, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'mesothelioma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 997, 'end': 1009, 'mesh': 'D008654'}, {'text': 'Toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1021, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1045, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'malaise', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1047, 'end': 1054, 'mesh': 'D005221'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1074, 'end': 1088, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1214, 'end': 1221, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1307, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'C031662'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1434, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'renal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1496, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1527, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'malaise', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1546, 'end': 1553, 'mesh': 'D005221'}, {'text': 'CB 3717', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1736, 'end': 1743, 'mesh': 'C031662'}]" +822,33969,Ethopropazine and benztropine in neuroleptic-induced parkinsonism.,"In a 12-week controlled study ethopropazine was compared to benztropine in the treatment of parkinsonism induced by fluphenazine enanthate in 60 schizophrenic outpatients.

This study examined the effect of alpha-tocopherol (alpha-TC), a scavenger of reactive oxygen species, and deferoxamine (DFO), an iron chelator, on the MA-induced neurotoxicity. Male rats were treated with MA (10 mg/kg, every 2 h for four injections). The rat received either alpha-TC (20 mg/kg) intraperitoneally for 3 days and 30 min prior to MA administration or DFO (50 mg/kg) subcutaneously 30 min before MA administration. The concentrations of dopamine (DA), serotonin and their metabolites decreased significantly after MA administration, which was inhibited by the alpha-TC and DFO pretreatment. alpha-TC and DFO attenuated the MA-induced hyperthermia as well as the alterations in the locomotor activity. The level of lipid peroxidation was higher and the reduced glutathione concentration was lower in the MA-treated rats. These changes were significantly attenuated by alpha-TC and DFO. This suggests that alpha-TC and DFO ameliorate the MA-induced neuronal damage by decreasing the level of oxidative stress.","[{'text': 'alpha-tocopherol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 47, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 71, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'Methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 128, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'alpha-tocopherol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 252, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'alpha-TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 270, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 305, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'deferoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 325, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 339, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 370, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 381, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 424, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'alpha-TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 563, 'end': 565, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 584, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 669, 'end': 677, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 679, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 693, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'alpha-TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 800, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 805, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'alpha-TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 836, 'end': 839, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 855, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 866, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 992, 'end': 1003, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'alpha-TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'alpha-TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D024502'}, {'text': 'DFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1152, 'mesh': 'D003676'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neuronal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1179, 'end': 1194, 'mesh': 'D009422'}]" +824,14633084,Use of dexamethasone with mesna for the prevention of ifosfamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis.,"AIM: Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is a limiting side-effect of chemotherapy with ifosfamide (IFS). In the study presented here, we investigated the use of dexamethasone in combination with mesna for the prevention of IFS-induced HC. METHODS: Male Wistar rats (150-200 g; 6 rats per group) were treated with saline or mesna 5 min (i.p.) before and 2 and 6 h after (v.o.) administration of IFS. One, two or three doses of mesna were replaced with dexamethasone alone or with dexamethasone plus mesna. Cystitis was evaluated 24 h after its induction by the changes in bladder wet weight and by macroscopic and microscopic analysis. RESULTS: The replacement of the last dose or the last two doses of mesna with dexamethasone reduced the increase in bladder wet weight induced by IFS by 84.79% and 89.13%, respectively. In addition, it almost abolished the macroscopic and microscopic alterations induced by IFS. Moreover, the addition of dexamethasone to the last two doses of mesna was more efficient than three doses of mesna alone when evaluated microscopically. CONCLUSION: Dexamethasone in combination with mesna was efficient in blocking IFS-induced HC. However, the replacement of last two doses of mesna with saline or all of the mesna doses with dexamethasone did not prevent HC.","[{'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 7, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'HC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 122, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D006470|D003556'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'IFS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 247, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 281, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'IFS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'HC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 321, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D006470|D003556'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 409, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'IFS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 480, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 517, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 565, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 584, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'Cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 591, 'end': 599, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 788, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'IFS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 867, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'IFS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 995, 'end': 998, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1070, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'Dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'IFS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1232, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'HC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1244, 'end': 1246, 'mesh': 'D006470|D003556'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1299, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'mesna', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1326, 'end': 1331, 'mesh': 'D015080'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'HC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1373, 'end': 1375, 'mesh': 'D006470|D003556'}]" +825,11999899,Behavioral effects of MK-801 on reserpine-treated mice.,"The effects of dizocilpine (MK-801), a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, were studied on dopamine-related behaviors induced by reserpine treatments. This study focuses on behavioral syndromes that may used as models for Parkinson's disease, or tardive dyskinesia, and its response after glutamatergic blockage. Reserpine (1 mg/kg), administered once every other day for 4 days, produced increases in orofacial dyskinesia, tongue protrusion and vacuous chewing in mice, which are signs indicative of tardive dyskinesia. Reserpine also produced tremor and catalepsy, which are signs suggestive of Parkinson's disease. MK-801 (0.1 mg/kg), administered 30 min before the observation test, prevented the vacuous chewing movements, tongue protrusions and catalepsy induced by reserpine. However, MK-801 injection produced a significant increase of tremor in reserpine-treated mice. Reserpine (1 mg/kg), administered 90 min before the test and followed by apomophine injection (0.1 mg/kg) 5 min before the test, did not produce oral dyskinesia in mice. On the other hand, reserpine induced increases in tremor and catalepsy compared to control mice. MK-801 (0.1 mg/kg) administration attenuated the catalepsy and tremor induced by reserpine. Pretreatment with reserpine (1 mg/kg) 24 h before the observation test produced increases in vacuous chewing movements and tongue protrusion, as well as increases in tremor and catalepsy, whereas MK-801 (0.1 mg/kg) injection 90 min before the test reversed the effects of reserpine. These results show that reserpine produces different and abnormal movements, which are related to dose and schedule employed and can be considered as parkinsonian-like and tardive dsykinesia signs. The glutamatergic blockage produced by NMDA can restore these signs, such as vacuous chewing movements, tongue protrusions, catalepsy and tremor according to the employed model.","[{'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'dizocilpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 71, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 84, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 110, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 175, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 213, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 306, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'tardive dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 330, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'Reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 397, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'orofacial dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 486, 'end': 506, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'tardive dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 585, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'Reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 629, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 640, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 681, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 702, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 835, 'end': 844, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 876, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 928, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 938, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'Reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'apomophine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1045, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'oral dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1122, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1182, 'end': 1188, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1193, 'end': 1202, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1287, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1292, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1310, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1487, 'end': 1493, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1517, 'end': 1523, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1593, 'end': 1602, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1628, 'end': 1637, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'abnormal movements', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1661, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1754, 'end': 1766, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'tardive dsykinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1776, 'end': 1794, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1841, 'end': 1845, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1926, 'end': 1935, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1940, 'end': 1946, 'mesh': 'D014202'}]" +826,9431903,Effect of glyceryl trinitrate on the sphincter of Oddi spasm evoked by prostigmine-morphine administration.,"OBJECTIVE: In this study the effect of glyceryl trinitrate on the prostigmine-morphine-induced sphincter of Oddi spasm was evaluated in nine female patients with sphincter of Oddi dyskinesia. METHOD: Sphincter of Oddi spasm was induced by prostigmine-morphine administration (0.5 mg prostigmine intramuscularly and 10 mg morphine subcutaneously) and visualized by quantitative hepatobiliary scintigraphy. The entire procedure was repeated during glyceryl trinitrate infusion (Nitrolingual 1 microg/kg/min for 120 min). RESULTS: Prostigmine-morphine provocation caused significant increases in the time to peak activity (Tmax) over the hepatic hilum (HH: 34.33 +/- 5.05 vs. 22.77 +/- 3.26) and the common bile duct (CBD: 60.44 +/- 5.99 vs. 40.0 +/- 2.88) and in the half-time of excretion (T1/2) over the liver parenchyma (LP: 120.04 +/- 16.01 vs. 27.37 +/- 2.19), HH (117.61 +/- 14.71 vs. 31.85 +/- 3.99) and CBD (158.11 +/- 9.18 vs. 40.1 +/- 6.24), indicating a complete spasm at the level of the sphincter of Oddi. Glyceryl trinitrate infusion completely normalized the prostigmine-morphine-induced alterations in these quantitative parameters (TmaX over the LP: 11.33 +/- 1.13; over the HH: 18.88 +/- 1.48; and over the CBD: 36.22 +/- 1.92; and T1/2 over the LP: 28.21 +/- 1.83; over the HH: 33.42 +/- 3.10; and over the CBD: 41.66 +/- 6.33), suggesting an effective sphincter-relaxing effect of glyceryl trinitrate. CONCLUSION: These results provide the first evidence of the effectiveness of glyceryl trinitrate on the morphine-induced sphincter of Oddi spasm in humans. Since glyceryl trinitrate is able to overcome even the drastic effect of morphine, it might be of relevance in the treatment of sphincter of Oddi dyskinesia.","[{'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'prostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 71, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 147, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'prostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 174, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'sphincter of Oddi dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 270, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D046628'}, {'text': 'prostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 347, 'end': 358, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 359, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'prostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 391, 'end': 402, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 429, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'Nitrolingual', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 584, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'Prostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'spasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D013035'}, {'text': 'Glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'prostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1191, 'mesh': 'D009388'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1192, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1605, 'end': 1624, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1632, 'end': 1640, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1690, 'end': 1709, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1757, 'end': 1765, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'sphincter of Oddi dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1812, 'end': 1840, 'mesh': 'D046628'}]" +827,8665051,Effects of acute steroid administration on ventilatory and peripheral muscles in rats.,"Occasional case reports have shown that acute myopathy may occur in patients treated with massive doses of corticosteroids. The mechanism of this myopathy is poorly understood. Therefore, 60 male rats were randomly assigned to receive daily injection of saline (C), methylprednisolone (M), or triamcinolone (T) 80 mg/kg/d for 5 d. Nutritional intake, measured daily in 15 animals, showed a significant reduction of food intake in the steroid-treated groups (-50 and -79% in M and T, respectively). This was associated with a similar loss in body weight. In the 45 remaining animals, diaphragm contractility and histopathologic features of several muscles were studied. Weights of respiratory and peripheral muscles were similarly decreased after steroid treatment. Maximal twitches of the diaphragm were lower in the C group (653 +/- 174 g/cm(2)) than in the M group (837 +/- 171 g/cm(2); p < 0.05) and the T group (765 +/- 145 g/cm(2), NS). Half-relaxation time was prolonged in both steroid groups, and time to peak tension was longer with M, whereas tetanic tensions were similar. Steroid treatment also induced a leftward shift of the force-frequency curve at 25 and 50 Hz when compared with saline treatment (p < 0.05). ATPase staining of the diaphragm, scalenus medius, and gastrocnemius showed type IIb fiber atrophy in the steroid groups and also diaphragmatic type IIa atrophy with T, whereas histologic examinations revealed a normal muscular pattern with absence of necrosis. Finally, a pair-fed (PF) study, performed in 18 rats (C, T, and PF), showed that muscle atrophy was considerably less pronounced in PF animals than in T-treated animals. We conclude that (1) short-term treatment with massive doses of steroids induced severe respiratory and limb muscle wasting; (2) both types of steroids induced predominantly type IIb atrophy, resulting in the expected alterations in diaphragm contractile properties; (3) neither steroid caused muscle necrosis; (4) type IIb atrophy was not caused by acute nutritional deprivation alone.","[{'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 133, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'corticosteroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 194, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D000305'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 233, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'methylprednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 353, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D008775'}, {'text': 'M', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 373, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D008775'}, {'text': 'triamcinolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 380, 'end': 393, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 395, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'reduction of food intake', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 489, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D000855'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 521, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'M', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 562, 'mesh': 'D008775'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 567, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'loss in body weight', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 620, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'M', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 946, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D008775'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 994, 'end': 995, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1079, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'M', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'D008775'}, {'text': 'tetanic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1140, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'D013746'}, {'text': 'Steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1171, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1403, 'end': 1410, 'mesh': 'D009133'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1418, 'end': 1425, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D009133'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1478, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1564, 'end': 1572, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1632, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'muscle atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1655, 'end': 1669, 'mesh': 'D009133'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1725, 'end': 1726, 'mesh': 'D014221'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1808, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1887, 'end': 1895, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1927, 'end': 1934, 'mesh': 'D001284'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2023, 'end': 2030, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2045, 'end': 2053, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2068, 'end': 2075, 'mesh': 'D009133'}]" +828,7785794,Refractory cardiogenic shock and complete heart block after verapamil SR and metoprolol treatment.

Extensive experimental and limited clinical data have shown that lometrexol has activity against tumours which are refractory to other drugs, notably methotrexate. However, the initial clinical development of lometrexol was curtailed because of severe and cumulative antiproliferative toxicities. Preclinical murine studies demonstrated that the toxicity of lometrexol can be prevented by low dose folic acid administration, i.e. for 7 days prior to and 7 days following a single bolus dose. This observation prompted a Phase I clinical study of lometrexol given with folic acid supplementation which has confirmed that the toxicity of lometrexol can be markedly reduced by folic acid supplementation. Thrombocytopenia and mucositis were the major toxicities. There was no clear relationship between clinical toxicity and the extent of plasma folate elevation. Associated studies demonstrated that lometrexol plasma pharmacokinetics were not altered by folic acid administration indicating that supplementation is unlikely to reduce toxicity by enhancing lometrexol plasma clearance. The work described in this report has identified for the first time a clinically acceptable schedule for the administration of a GARFT inhibitor. This information will facilitate the future evaluation of this class of compounds in cancer therapy.","[{'text': 'antipurine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D000983'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'DDATHF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 66, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'Lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'glycinamide ribonucleotide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'C402896'}, {'text': 'purine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 231, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D011687'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 314, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'tumours', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 346, 'end': 353, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 399, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 458, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 534, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 595, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 607, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 647, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 795, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 817, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 873, 'end': 881, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 885, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 933, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'Thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 951, 'end': 967, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'mucositis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D052016'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 997, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1058, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'folate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1157, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1202, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'lometrexol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'C045894'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1564, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'D009369'}]" +830,2557556,Involvement of the mu-opiate receptor in peripheral analgesia.,"The intradermal injection of mu (morphine, Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-NMe-Phe-Gly-ol and morphiceptin), kappa (trans-3,4-dichloro-N-methyl-N[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl) cyclohexyl]benzeneactemide) and delta ([D-Pen2.5]-enkephalin and [D-Ser2]-[Leu]enkephalin-Thr) selective opioid-agonists, by themselves, did not significantly affect the mechanical nociceptive threshold in the hindpaw of the rat. Intradermal injection of mu, but not delta or kappa opioid-agonists, however, produced dose-dependent inhibition of prostaglandin E2-induced hyperalgesia. The analgesic effect of the mu-agonist morphine was dose-dependently antagonized by naloxone and prevented by co-injection of pertussis toxin. Morphine did not, however, alter the hyperalgesia induced by 8-bromo cyclic adenosine monophosphate. We conclude that the analgesic action of opioids on the peripheral terminals of primary afferents is via a binding site with characteristics of the mu-opioid receptor and that this action is mediated by inhibition of the cyclic adenosine monophosphate second messenger system.","[{'text': 'analgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 52, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D000699'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-NMe-Phe-Gly-ol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D020875'}, {'text': 'morphiceptin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'C028889'}, {'text': 'trans-3,4-dichloro-N-methyl-N[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl) cyclohexyl]benzeneactemide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 161, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D019900'}, {'text': '[D-Pen2.5]-enkephalin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 249, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D020881'}, {'text': '[D-Ser2]-[Leu]enkephalin-Thr', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 303, 'mesh': 'C034318'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 556, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 581, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 634, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 679, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'Morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 738, 'end': 746, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 775, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': '8-bromo cyclic adenosine monophosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 837, 'mesh': 'D015124'}, {'text': 'cyclic adenosine monophosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1060, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D000242'}]" +831,15580403,Adequate timing of ribavirin reduction in patients with hemolysis during combination therapy of interferon and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C.,"BACKGROUND: Hemolytic anemia is one of the major adverse events of the combination therapy of interferon and ribavirin. Because of ribavirin-related hemolytic anemia, dose reduction is a common event in this therapy. In this clinical retrospective cohort study we have examined the suitable timing of ribavirin reduction in patients with hemolysis during combination therapy. METHODS: Thirty-seven of 160 patients who had HCV-genotype 1b, had high virus load, and received 24-week combination therapy developed anemia with hemoglobin level <10 g/dl or anemia-related signs during therapy. After that, these 37 patients were reduced one tablet of ribavirin (200 mg) per day. After reduction of ribavirin, 27 of 37 patients could continue combination therapy for a total of 24 weeks (group A). However, 10 of 37 patients with reduction of ribavirin could not continue combination therapy because their <8.5 g/dl hemoglobin values decreased to or anemia-related severe side effects occurred (group B). We assessed the final efficacy and safety after reduction of ribavirin in groups A and B. RESULTS: A sustained virological response (SVR) was 29.6% (8/27) in group A and 10% (1/10) in group B, respectively. A 34.4% (12/27) of SVR + biological response in group A was higher than 10% (1/10) in group B ( P = 0.051), with slight significance. With respect to hemoglobin level at the time of ribavirin reduction, a rate of continuation of therapy in patients with > or =10 g/dl hemoglobin was higher than that in patients with <10 g/dl ( P = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS: Reduction of ribavirin at hemoglobin level > or =10 g/dl is suitable in terms of efficacy and side effects.","[{'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'interferon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D007372'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'Hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'interferon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 240, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D007372'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 255, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 277, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 295, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'hemolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 484, 'end': 493, 'mesh': 'D006461'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 657, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 698, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 983, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1096, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1534, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1718, 'end': 1727, 'mesh': 'D012254'}]" +832,15075188,Increased expression and apical targeting of renal ENaC subunits in puromycin aminonucleoside-induced nephrotic syndrome in rats.,"Nephrotic syndrome is often accompanied by sodium retention and generalized edema. However, the molecular basis for the decreased renal sodium excretion remains undefined. We hypothesized that epithelial Na channel (ENaC) subunit dysregulation may be responsible for the increased sodium retention. An experimental group of rats was treated with puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN; 180 mg/kg iv), whereas the control group received only vehicle. After 7 days, PAN treatment induced significant proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, decreased urinary sodium excretion, and extensive ascites. The protein abundance of alpha-ENaC and beta-ENaC was increased in the inner stripe of the outer medulla (ISOM) and in the inner medulla (IM) but was not altered in the cortex. gamma-ENaC abundance was increased in the cortex, ISOM, and IM. Immunoperoxidase brightfield- and laser-scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy demonstrated increased targeting of alpha-ENaC, beta-ENaC, and gamma-ENaC subunits to the apical plasma membrane in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT2), connecting tubule, and cortical and medullary collecting duct segments. Immunoelectron microscopy further revealed an increased labeling of alpha-ENaC in the apical plasma membrane of cortical collecting duct principal cells of PAN-treated rats, indicating enhanced apical targeting of alpha-ENaC subunits. In contrast, the protein abundances of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger type 3 (NHE3), Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter (BSC-1), and thiazide-sensitive Na(+)-Cl(-) cotransporter (TSC) were decreased. Moreover, the abundance of the alpha(1)-subunit of the Na-K-ATPase was decreased in the cortex and ISOM, but it remained unchanged in the IM. In conclusion, the increased or sustained expression of ENaC subunits combined with increased apical targeting in the DCT2, connecting tubule, and collecting duct are likely to play a role in the sodium retention associated with PAN-induced nephrotic syndrome. The decreased abundance of NHE3, BSC-1, TSC, and Na-K-ATPase may play a compensatory role to promote sodium excretion.","[{'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 102, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'Nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 130, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 206, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 266, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 334, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 411, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 476, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 503, 'end': 506, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 586, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 620, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'hypoalbuminemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 633, 'end': 648, 'mesh': 'D034141'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 668, 'end': 674, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'ascites', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 700, 'end': 707, 'mesh': 'D001201'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1533, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'H', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1537, 'end': 1538, 'mesh': 'D006859'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1567, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1574, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Cl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1581, 'mesh': 'D002713'}, {'text': 'thiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1620, 'mesh': 'D049971'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1633, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Cl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1637, 'end': 1639, 'mesh': 'D002713'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1734, 'end': 1736, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1738, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2017, 'end': 2023, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2050, 'end': 2053, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2062, 'end': 2080, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2131, 'end': 2133, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2134, 'end': 2135, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2183, 'end': 2189, 'mesh': 'D012964'}]" +833,14745746,Does hormone therapy for the treatment of breast cancer have a detrimental effect on memory and cognition? A pilot study.,"This pilot study examines whether hormone therapy for breast cancer affects cognition. Patients participating in a randomised trial of anastrozole, tamoxifen alone or combined (ATAC) (n=94) and a group of women without breast cancer (n=35) completed a battery of neuropsychological measures. Compared with the control group, the patients were impaired on a processing speed task (p=0.032) and on a measure of immediate verbal memory (p=0.026) after controlling for the use of hormone replacement therapy in both groups. Patient group performance was not significantly related to length of treatment or measures of psychological morbidity. The results showed specific impairments in processing speed and verbal memory in women receiving hormonal therapy for the treatment of breast cancer. Verbal memory may be especially sensitive to changes in oestrogen levels, a finding commonly reported in studies of hormone replacement therapy in healthy women. In view of the increased use of hormone therapies in an adjuvant and preventative setting their impact on cognitive functioning should be investigated more thoroughly.","[{'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 176, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'anastrozole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 257, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'C090450'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 270, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 341, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 896, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'oestrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 967, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D004967'}]" +834,11208990,Association of nitric oxide production and apoptosis in a model of experimental nephropathy.,"BACKGROUND: In recent studies increased amounts of nitric oxide (NO) and apoptosis have been implicated in various pathological conditions in the kidney. We have studied the role of NO and its association with apoptosis in an experimental model of nephrotic syndrome induced by a single injection of adriamycin (ADR). METHODS: The alteration in the NO pathway was assessed by measuring nitrite levels in serum/urine and by evaluating the changes in vascular reactivity of the isolated perfused rat kidney (IPRK) system. Rats were stratified into control groups and ADR-induced nephropathy groups. These two groups were then divided into: group 1, animals receiving saline; and group 2, animals receiving aminoguanidine (AG) which is a specific inhibitor of inducible-NO synthase. On day 21, rats were sacrificed after obtaining material for biochemical analysis. RESULTS: Histopathological examination of the kidneys of rats treated with ADR revealed focal areas of mesangial proliferation and mild tubulointerstitial inflammation. They also had significantly higher levels of proteinuria compared with control and treatment groups (P < 0.05). Urine nitrite levels were significantly increased in the ADR-nephropathy group (P < 0.05). In the IPRK phenylephrine and acetylcholine related responses were significantly impaired in the ADR-nephropathy group. Apoptosis was not detected in controls. However, in the ADR-nephropathy group, numerous apoptotic cells were identified in the tubulointerstitial areas. Double staining revealed numerous interstitial apoptotic cells to stain for ED1, a marker for monocytes/macrophages. Treatment with AG prevented the impairment of renal vascular bed responses and reduced both urine nitrite levels and apoptosis to control levels. CONCLUSION: We suggest that interactions between NO and apoptosis are important in the pathogenesis of the ADR-induced nephrosis.","[{'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 15, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 80, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 144, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 158, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 277, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 341, 'end': 359, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 393, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 405, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 442, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'nitrite', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 486, 'mesh': 'D009573'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 658, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 670, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aminoguanidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 797, 'end': 811, 'mesh': 'C004479'}, {'text': 'AG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 813, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'C004479'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 860, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'mesangial proliferation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'C537346'}, {'text': 'tubulointerstitial inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D009395'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1181, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'nitrite', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1243, 'end': 1250, 'mesh': 'D009573'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1297, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'phenylephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1358, 'end': 1371, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1425, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1429, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1508, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'AG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1733, 'end': 1735, 'mesh': 'C004479'}, {'text': 'nitrite', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1816, 'end': 1823, 'mesh': 'D009573'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1913, 'end': 1915, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1971, 'end': 1974, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1983, 'end': 1992, 'mesh': 'D009401'}]" +835,9201797,"The attenuating effect of carteolol hydrochloride, a beta-adrenoceptor antagonist, on neuroleptic-induced catalepsy in rats.","It is known that beta-adrenoceptor antagonists are effective in the treatment of akathisia, one of the extrapyramidal side effects that occur during neuroleptic treatment. Neuroleptic-induced catalepsy, a model of neuroleptic-induced extrapyramidal side effects, was considered suitable as a model for predicting neuroleptic-induced akathisia in humans, although neuroleptic-induced catalepsy was not considered a specific test for neuroleptic-induced akathisia. Therefore, the effects of carteolol, a beta-adrenoceptor antagonist, on haloperidol-induced catalepsy in rats were behaviorally studied and compared with those of propranolol and biperiden, a muscarinic receptor antagonist. Carteolol, as well as propranolol and biperiden, inhibited the haloperidol-induced catalepsy. The inhibitory effect of carteolol was almost comparable to that of propranolol, but was weaker than that of biperiden. Carteolol did not evoke postsynaptic dopamine receptor-stimulating behavioral signs such as stereotypy and hyperlocomotion in rats. Carteolol did not antagonize the inhibitory effects of haloperidol on apomorphine-induced stereotypy and locomotor activity in rats. In addition, carteolol did not evoke 5-HT1A receptor-stimulating behavioral signs such as flat body posture and forepaw treading and did not inhibit 5-hydroxytryptophan-induced head twitch in rats. Finally, carteolol did not inhibit physostigmine-induced lethality in rats. These results strongly suggest that carteolol improves haloperidol-induced catalepsy via its beta-adrenoceptor antagonistic activity and is expected to be effective in the treatment of akathisia without attenuating neuroleptic-induced antipsychotic effects due to its postsynaptic dopamine receptor antagonistic activity.","[{'text': 'carteolol hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 106, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 206, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 317, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 458, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 508, 'end': 517, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 577, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 623, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 680, 'end': 689, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 751, 'end': 762, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'biperiden', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 767, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D001712'}, {'text': 'Carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 812, 'end': 821, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 834, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'biperiden', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 850, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D001712'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 875, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 895, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 931, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 974, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'biperiden', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D001712'}, {'text': 'Carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1063, 'end': 1071, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'hyperlocomotion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1148, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'Carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1158, 'end': 1167, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1213, 'end': 1224, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1239, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1313, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': '5-hydroxytryptophan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1440, 'end': 1459, 'mesh': 'D006916'}, {'text': 'carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'physostigmine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1524, 'end': 1537, 'mesh': 'D010830'}, {'text': 'carteolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1601, 'end': 1610, 'mesh': 'D002354'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1620, 'end': 1631, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1640, 'end': 1649, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1750, 'end': 1759, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1846, 'end': 1854, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +836,8267029,Penicillamine-induced rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis.,"A 67-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis presented rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) after 5 months of D-penicillamine (250 mg/day) treatment.

Subjects were randomly assigned to 4-hourly or 8-hourly regimens within CDC groups while taking 600 and 1200 mg/day. Clinical and laboratory evaluations were performed at 3-week intervals. Symptomatic adverse effects were present in 96% of subjects, most commonly nausea (64%), fatigue (55%) and headache (49%). These were generally self-limited, reappearing briefly at each dose increment. A decrease in hemoglobin occurred shortly after initiation of therapy.

VII. Thromboembolic and other complications of oral contraceptive therapy in relationship to pretreatment levels of blood coagulation factors: summary report of a ten-year study.,"During a ten-year period, 348 women were studied for a total of 5,877 patient months in four separate studies relating oral contraceptives to changes in hematologic parameters. Significant increases in certain factors of the blood coagulation and fibrinolysin systems (factors I,II,VII,VIII,IX, and X and plasminogen) were observed in the treated groups. Severe complications developed in four patients. All four had an abnormal blood coagulation profile, suggesting ""hypercoagulability"" before initiation of therapy. Some of these findings represented the most extreme abnormalities seen in the entire group of patients; some increased further during therapy. One of these patients developed a myocardial infarction before receiving any medication, shortly after the base-line values were obtained. One patient developed retinopathy 19 months after she began therapy, and another developed thrombophlebitis after 27 months of therapy. The fourth patient developed thrombophlebitis 14 days after initiation of contraceptive therapy. All four patients were of the A or AB blood group. Previous studies suggested the possiblility of increased propensity for thromboembolic episodes in patients possessing the A antigen. It appears from these data that hematologic work-ups may be useful in women who are about to start long-term oral contraceptive therapy.","[{'text': 'blood coagulation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 26, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D001778'}, {'text': 'Thromboembolic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 50, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptive', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'blood coagulation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 161, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'D001778'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 343, 'end': 362, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'blood coagulation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 449, 'end': 466, 'mesh': 'D001778'}, {'text': 'blood coagulation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 653, 'end': 670, 'mesh': 'D001778'}, {'text': 'hypercoagulability', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 692, 'end': 710, 'mesh': 'D019851'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 919, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'retinopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1046, 'end': 1057, 'mesh': 'D012164'}, {'text': 'thrombophlebitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1115, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D013924'}, {'text': 'thrombophlebitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D013924'}, {'text': 'thromboembolic episodes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1380, 'end': 1403, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptive', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D003276'}]" +840,17263743,Cardiac arrest in a child with cerebral palsy undergoing sevoflurane induction of anesthesia after preoperative clonidine.,"Clonidine is a frequently administered alpha2-adrenergic agonist which can decrease heart rate and blood pressure.

In contrast, the contribution of sigma2 receptors is unclear because experimental tools to selectively target this subtype are unavailable. To begin addressing this need, we characterized UMB24 (1-(2-phenethyl)-4-(2-pyridyl)-piperazine) and (+/-)-SM 21 (3alpha-tropanyl-2-(4-chorophenoxy)butyrate) in receptor binding and behavioral studies. Receptor binding studies confirmed that UMB24 and (+/-)-SM 21 display preferential affinity for sigma2 over sigma1 receptors. In behavioral studies, pretreatment of Swiss Webster mice with UMB24 or (+/-)-SM 21 significantly attenuated cocaine-induced convulsions and locomotor activity, but not lethality. When administered alone, (+/-)-SM 21 produced no significant effects compared to control injections of saline, but UMB24 had locomotor depressant actions. Together, the data suggest that sigma2 receptor antagonists have the potential to attenuate some of the behavioral effects of cocaine, and further development of more selective, high affinity ligands are warranted.","[{'text': 'UMB24', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'C519696'}, {'text': 'SM 21', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'C107044'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 221, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 295, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'UMB24', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 493, 'end': 498, 'mesh': 'C519696'}, {'text': '1-(2-phenethyl)-4-(2-pyridyl)-piperazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 500, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'C519696'}, {'text': 'SM 21', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 552, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'C107044'}, {'text': '3alpha-tropanyl-2-(4-chorophenoxy)butyrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 601, 'mesh': 'C107044'}, {'text': 'UMB24', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 687, 'end': 692, 'mesh': 'C519696'}, {'text': 'SM 21', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 703, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'C107044'}, {'text': 'UMB24', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 836, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'C519696'}, {'text': 'SM 21', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 851, 'end': 856, 'mesh': 'C107044'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 882, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 898, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'SM 21', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 984, 'end': 989, 'mesh': 'C107044'}, {'text': 'UMB24', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1073, 'mesh': 'C519696'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1241, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +842,14982270,Methimazole-induced cholestatic jaundice.,"Methimazole is a widely used and generally well-tolerated antithyroid agent.

Halothane hepatitis appears to involve an aberrant immune response. An antibody response to a protein-bound biotransformation product (trifluoroacetyl adduct) has been detected on halothane hepatitis patients. This study was performed to determine cross-reactivity between enflurane and isoflurane with the hypersensitivity induced by halothane. The subcellular and lobular production of hepatic neoantigens recognized by halothane-induced antibodies following enflurane and isoflurane, and the biochemical nature of these neoantigens was investigated in two animal models. Enflurane administration resulted in neoantigens detected in both the microsomal and cytosolic fraction of liver homogenates and in the centrilobular region of the liver. In the same liver, biochemical analysis detected fluorinated liver adducts that were up to 20-fold greater in guinea pigs than in rats. This supports and extends previous evidence for a mechanism by which enflurane and/or isoflurane could produce a hypersensitivity condition similar to that of halothane hepatitis either alone or subsequent to halothane administration.

Controls were injected with physiological saline. All three anesthetics produced massive degeneration of the extraocular muscles. Muscle degeneration is followed by regeneration of the damaged muscle fibers. In addition to muscle damage, severe damage was also seen in harderian glands, especially after exposure to mepivacaine and lidocaine plus epinephrine. With these findings in rats, it is hypothesized that the temporary diplopia sometimes seen in patients after ophthalmic surgery might be due to anesthetic-induced damage to the extraocular muscles.","[{'text': 'bupivacaine hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'mepivacaine hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 182, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D008619'}, {'text': 'lidocaine hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 218, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 257, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'Muscle degeneration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 453, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'muscle damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 546, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'mepivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 639, 'end': 650, 'mesh': 'D008619'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 655, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'diplopia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 750, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D004172'}]" +849,2907585,Reversal of neuroleptic-induced catalepsy by novel aryl-piperazine anxiolytic drugs.,"The novel anxiolytic drug, buspirone, reverses catalepsy induced by haloperidol.

Intravenous administration of diazepam (1-30 mg kg-1) produced a dose-dependent decrease in both the mean arterial pressure and the heart rate. Also, reflex bradycardia was produced in rats by intravenous infusion of adrenaline (1.25-2.5 micrograms kg-1). Intravenous pretreatment of the rats with diazepam, although causing no change in the adrenaline-induced pressor effect, did enhance the adrenaline-induced reflex bradycardia. However, the diazepam enhancement of adrenaline-induced reflex bradycardia was antagonized by pretreatment of rats with an intravenous dose of picrotoxin (an agent blocks chloride channels by binding to sites associated with the benzodiazepine-GABA-chloride channel macromolecular complex). The data indicate that diazepam acts through the benzodiazepine-GABA-chloride channel macromolecular complex within the central nervous system to facilitate reflex bradycardia mediated through baroreceptor reflexes in response to an acute increase in arterial pressure.","[{'text': 'Diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 28, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 300, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 360, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 441, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 485, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 536, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 562, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 588, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 638, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'picrotoxin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 718, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'D010852'}, {'text': 'chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D002712'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 804, 'end': 818, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 819, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 824, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D002712'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 889, 'end': 897, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 915, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 930, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 935, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D002712'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'D001919'}]" +851,2790457,Chronic carbamazepine inhibits the development of local anesthetic seizures kindled by cocaine and lidocaine.,"The effects of carbamazepine (CBZ) treatment on local anesthetic-kindled seizures and lethality were evaluated in different stages of the kindling process and under different methods of CBZ administration. Chronic oral CBZ inhibited the development of both lidocaine- and cocaine-induced seizures, but had little effect on the fully developed local anesthetic seizures. Chronic CBZ also decreased the incidence of seizure-related mortality in the cocaine-injected rats. Acute CBZ over a range of doses (15-50 mg/kg) had no effect on completed lidocaine-kindled or acute cocaine-induced seizures. Repeated i.p. injection of CBZ (15 mg/kg) also was without effect on the development of lidocaine- or cocaine-kindled seizures. The differential effects of CBZ depending upon stage of seizure development suggest that distinct mechanisms underlie the development versus maintenance of local anesthetic-kindled seizures. The effectiveness of chronic but not repeated, intermittent injections of CBZ suggests that different biochemical consequences result from the different treatment regimens. The possible utility of chronic CBZ in preventing the development of toxic side effects in human cocaine users is suggested by these data, but remains to be directly evaluated.","[{'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 8, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 67, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 99, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 183, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 296, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 329, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 367, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 382, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 398, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 470, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 488, 'end': 491, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 524, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 557, 'end': 564, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 586, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 653, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 696, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 733, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 808, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 824, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 862, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 890, 'end': 897, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1023, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1102, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'CBZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1302, 'mesh': 'D003042'}]" +852,2334179,D-penicillamine in the treatment of localized scleroderma.,"Localized scleroderma has no recognized internal organ involvement but may be disfiguring and disabling when the cutaneous lesions are extensive or affect children.

Specific dopamine-1, (DA1) and dopamine-2 (DA2) receptor agonists are now under clinical investigation. Fenoldopam mesylate is a specific DA1 receptor agonist that lowers blood pressure by vasodilatation. The hypothesis that fenoldopam could be used to induce hypotension and preserve blood flow to the kidney was tested. Systemic aortic blood pressure and renal blood flow were measured continuously with a carotid arterial catheter and an electromagnetic flow probe respectively, in order to compare the cardiovascular and renal vascular effects of fenoldopam and sodium nitroprusside in ten dogs under halothane general anaesthesia. Mean arterial pressure was decreased 30 +/- 8 per cent from control with infusion of fenoldopam (3.4 +/- 2.0 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) and 34 +/- 4 per cent with infusion of sodium nitroprusside (5.9 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) (NS). Renal blood flow (RBF) increased during fenoldopam-induced hypotension 11 +/- 7 per cent and decreased 21 +/- 8 per cent during sodium nitroprusside-induced hypotension (P less than 0.01). Sodium nitroprusside is a non-selective arteriolar and venous vasodilator that can produce redistribution of blood flow away from the kidney during induced hypotension.

The stronger antiarrhythmic effect of (-)-cibenzoline indicates that (-)-isomer may have an effect nearly 5-20 times stronger in suppressing Na channels, but effects of both drugs on Ca channels may be almost equipotent.","[{'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 45, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'ventricular arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 67, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 142, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'ventricular arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'Digitalis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 216, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D004070'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 261, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 342, 'end': 349, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 353, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'Adrenaline arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 386, 'end': 407, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 432, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 468, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 491, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'digitalis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D004070'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 602, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'digitalis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 696, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D004070'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 711, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 730, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 861, 'end': 872, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'digitalis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 888, 'end': 897, 'mesh': 'D004070'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 906, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 981, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1045, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'digitalis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1070, 'mesh': 'D004070'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'cibenzoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1244, 'mesh': 'C032151'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1332, 'end': 1334, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1374, 'end': 1376, 'mesh': 'D002118'}]" +855,19761039,Effect of Hibiscus rosa sinensis on reserpine-induced neurobehavioral and biochemical alterations in rats.,"Effect of methanolic extract of Hibiscus rosa sinensis (100-300 mg/kg) was studied on reserpine-induced orofacial dyskinesia and neurochemical alterations. The rats were treated with intraperitoneal reserpine (1 mg/kg, ip) for 3 days every other day. On day 5, vacuous chewing movements and tongue protrusions were counted for 5 min. Reserpine treated rats significantly developed vacuous chewing movements and tongue protrusions however, coadministration of Hibiscus rosa sinensis roots extract (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg, per orally) attenuated the effects. Biochemical analysis of brain revealed that the reserpine treatment significantly increased lipid peroxidation and decreased levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione reductase (GSH), an index of oxidative stress process. Coadministration of extract significantly reduced the lipid peroxidation and reversed the decrease in brain SOD, CAT and GSH levels. The results of the present study suggested that Hibiscus rosa sinensis had a protective role against reserpine-induced orofacial dyskinesia and oxidative stress.","[{'text': 'Hibiscus rosa sinensis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'Hibiscus rosa sinensis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 161, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 193, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 221, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 306, 'end': 315, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'Reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 441, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'Hibiscus rosa sinensis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 566, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 846, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'Hibiscus rosa sinensis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1116, 'mesh': 'D010936'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1156, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1175, 'end': 1185, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +856,11704023,Comparison of aqueous and gellan ophthalmic timolol with placebo on the 24-hour heart rate response in patients on treatment for glaucoma.,"PURPOSE: Topical beta-blocker treatment is routine therapy in the management of patients with glaucoma. Therapy results in systemic absorption, however, the degree of reduction of resting and peak heart rate has not been quantified. DESIGN: This trial evaluated the effect of placebo, 0.5% aqueous timolol (timolol solution) and a 0.5% timolol suspension that forms a gel on application to the conjunctiva (timolol gellan) on the 24-hour heart rate in patients currently being treated for glaucoma to quantify the reduction in mean heart rate. METHODS: Forty-three Caucasian patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension with a mean (+/-SD) age of 63 (+/-8) years were randomized and crossed over in a double-masked manner to 14 days of treatment with placebo (morning and evening in both eyes), timolol solution (morning and evening in both eyes), or timolol gellan (morning in both eyes with placebo in the evening). On the 13th day of each period, heart rate was recorded continuously during a typical, ambulant 24-hour period. RESULTS: Both timolol solution and timolol gellan reduced the mean 24-hour heart rate compared with placebo (P < or = .001), and this reduction was most pronounced during the daytime (-7.5% change in mean heart rate, -5.7 beats/min). Timolol gellan showed a numerically but not significantly smaller reduction in 24-hour heart rate, compared with timolol solution. During the night, the mean 12-hour heart rate on placebo and timolol gellan were both significantly less than on timolol solution; the difference between solution and gellan treatments was statistically significant (P = .01). CONCLUSIONS: Both timolol solution and timolol gellan decrease the mean 24-hour heart rate compared with placebo. This response was most pronounced during the active daytime period. These data quantify the modest bradycardia associated with ophthalmic beta-blocker therapy in a typical patient population on therapy for glaucoma. Although exercise performance was not assessed in this trial, reductions of this magnitude should not have substantial clinical consequences.","[{'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 129, 'end': 137, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 233, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 437, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 546, 'end': 553, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 628, 'end': 636, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'open-angle glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 736, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D005902'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 759, 'end': 778, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 961, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1017, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1203, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'Timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1430, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1615, 'end': 1622, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1667, 'end': 1674, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1798, 'end': 1805, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'timolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1819, 'end': 1826, 'mesh': 'D013999'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1993, 'end': 2004, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2100, 'end': 2108, 'mesh': 'D005901'}]" +857,19300240,5 flourouracil-induced apical ballooning syndrome: a case report.,"The apical ballooning syndrome (ABS) is a recently described stress-mediated acute cardiac syndrome characterized by transient wall-motion abnormalities involving the apex and midventricle with hyperkinesis of the basal left ventricular (LV) segments without obstructive epicardial coronary disease. Cardiotoxicity is not an uncommon adverse effect of chemotherapeutic agents. However, there are no reports of ABS secondary to chemotherapeutic agents. We describe the case of a woman who developed the syndrome after chemotherapy for metastatic cancer. A 79-year-old woman presented with typical ischemic chest pain, elevated cardiac enzymes with significant ST-segment abnormalities on her electrocardiogram. She underwent recent chemotherapy with fluorouracil for metastatic colorectal cancer. Echocardiography revealed a wall-motion abnormality involving the apical and periapical segments which appeared akinetic. Coronary angiography revealed no obstructive coronary lesions. The patient was stabilized with medical therapy. Four weeks later she remained completely asymptomatic. Echocardiogram revealed a normal ejection fraction and a resolution of the apical akinesis. Pathogenetic mechanisms of cardiac complications in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy include coronary vasospasm, endothelial damage and consequent thrombus formation.

We hypothesized that propofol infusion pain might be prevented by infusing remifentanil before starting the propofol infusion in a clinical setting where target-controlled infusions (TCI) of both drugs were used. A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed to determine the effect-site concentration (Ce) of remifentanil to prevent the pain without producing complications. METHODS: A total of 128 patients undergoing general surgery were randomly allocated to receive normal saline (control) or remifentanil to a target Ce of 2 ng ml(-1) (R2), 4 ng ml(-1) (R4), or 6 ng ml(-1) (R6) administered via TCI. After the target Ce was achieved, the infusion of propofol was started. Remifentanil-related complications were assessed during the remifentanil infusion, and pain caused by propofol was evaluated using a four-point scale during the propofol infusion. RESULTS: The incidence of pain was significantly lower in Groups R4 and R6 than in the control and R2 groups (12/32 and 6/31 vs 26/31 and 25/32, respectively, P<0.001). Pain was less severe in Groups R4 and R6 than in the control and R2 groups (P<0.001). However, both incidence and severity of pain were not different between Groups R4 and R6. No significant complications were observed during the study.

Epidemiological data suggest that fluoxetine exposure prenatally increases the prevalence of persistent pulmonary hypertension syndrome of the newborn. The mechanism responsible for this effect is unclear and paradoxical, considering the current evidence of a pulmonary hypertension protective fluoxetine effect in adult rodents. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the fluoxetine effect on fetal rat pulmonary vascular smooth muscle mechanical properties and cell proliferation rate. METHODS: Pregnant rats were treated with fluoxetine (10 mg/kg) from Day 11 through Day 21 of gestation. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Fetuses were delivered by cesarean section. As compared with controls, fluoxetine exposure resulted in fetal pulmonary hypertension as evidenced by an increase in the weight ratio of the right ventricle to the left ventricle plus septum (P = 0.02) and by an increase in pulmonary arterial medial thickness (P < 0.01). Postnatal mortality was increased among experimental animals, and arterial oxygen saturation was 96 +/- 1% in 1-day-old control animals and significantly lower (P < 0.01) in fluoxetine-exposed pups (79 +/- 2%). In vitro, fluoxetine induced pulmonary arterial muscle contraction in fetal, but not adult, animals (P < 0.01) and reduced serotonin-induced contraction at both ages (P < 0.01). After in utero exposure to a low fluoxetine concentration the pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cell proliferation rate was significantly increased in fetal, but not adult, cells (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to the adult, fluoxetine exposure in utero induces pulmonary hypertension in the fetal rat as a result of a developmentally regulated increase in pulmonary vascular smooth muscle proliferation.","[{'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 118, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 227, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 297, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 453, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 497, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 551, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 707, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 872, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1194, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1453, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1541, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1747, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1774, 'end': 1796, 'mesh': 'D006976'}]" +860,17344330,Syncope and QT prolongation among patients treated with methadone for heroin dependence in the city of Copenhagen.,"BACKGROUND: Methadone is prescribed to heroin addicts to decrease illicit opioid use. Prolongation of the QT interval in the ECG of patients with torsade de pointes (TdP) has been reported in methadone users. As heroin addicts sometimes faint while using illicit drugs, doctors might attribute too many episodes of syncope to illicit drug use and thereby underestimate the incidence of TdP in this special population, and the high mortality in this population may, in part, be caused by the proarrhythmic effect of methadone. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study interview, ECGs and blood samples were collected in a population of adult heroin addicts treated with methadone or buprenorphine on a daily basis. Of the patients at the Drug Addiction Service in the municipal of Copenhagen, 450 (approximately 52%) were included. The QT interval was estimated from 12 lead ECGs. All participants were interviewed about any experience of syncope. The association between opioid dose and QT, and methadone dose and reporting of syncope was assessed using multivariate linear regression and logistic regression, respectively. RESULTS: Methadone dose was associated with longer QT interval of 0.140 ms/mg (p = 0.002). No association between buprenorphine and QTc was found. Among the subjects treated with methadone, 28% men and 32% women had prolonged QTc interval. None of the subjects treated with buprenorphine had QTc interval >0.440 s((1/2)). A 50 mg higher methadone dose was associated with a 1.2 (95% CI 1.1 to 1.4) times higher odds for syncope. CONCLUSIONS: Methadone is associated with QT prolongation and higher reporting of syncope in a population of heroin addicts.","[{'text': 'Syncope', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D013575'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'heroin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D003932'}, {'text': 'Methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 127, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'heroin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D003932'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 261, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 281, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 307, 'end': 316, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'heroin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D003932'}, {'text': 'syncope', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 430, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D013575'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 501, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 630, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'heroin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 760, 'mesh': 'D003932'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'buprenorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 795, 'end': 808, 'mesh': 'D002047'}, {'text': 'syncope', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D013575'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1108, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'syncope', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1140, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'D013575'}, {'text': 'Methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'buprenorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1364, 'mesh': 'D002047'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1425, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'prolonged QTc interval', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1453, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'buprenorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1524, 'mesh': 'D002047'}, {'text': 'methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1583, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'syncope', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1657, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'D013575'}, {'text': 'Methadone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1679, 'end': 1688, 'mesh': 'D008691'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1723, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'syncope', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1748, 'end': 1755, 'mesh': 'D013575'}, {'text': 'heroin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1775, 'end': 1781, 'mesh': 'D003932'}]" +861,16826348,Peripheral neuropathy caused by high-dose cytosine arabinoside treatment in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia.,"The central nervous system toxicity of high-dose cytosine arabinoside is well recognized, but the toxicity of cytosine arabinoside in the peripheral nervous system has been infrequently reported. A 49-year-old Japanese man was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia. After he achieved complete remission, he received high-dose cytosine arabinoside treatment (2 g/m2 twice a day for 5 days; total, 20 g/m2) as consolidation therapy. The first course of high-dose cytosine arabinoside resulted in no unusual symptoms, but on day 21 of the second course of treatment, the patient complained of numbness in his right foot. Electromyogram and nerve-conduction studies showed peripheral neuropathy in both peroneal nerves. This neuropathy was gradually resolving; however, after the patient received allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, the symptoms worsened, with the development of graft-versus-host disease, and the symptoms subsequently responded to methylprednisolone. Although the mechanisms of peripheral neuropathy are still unclear, high-dose cytosine arabinoside is a therapy that is potentially toxic to the peripheral nervous system, and auto/alloimmunity may play an important role in these mechanisms.","[{'text': 'Peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'cytosine arabinoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'acute myeloid leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 113, 'mesh': 'D015470'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cytosine arabinoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 164, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 213, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cytosine arabinoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 225, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'acute myeloid leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 357, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D015470'}, {'text': 'cytosine arabinoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 441, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'cytosine arabinoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'numbness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 705, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'D006987'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 784, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 836, 'end': 846, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'graft-versus-host disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 995, 'end': 1020, 'mesh': 'D006086'}, {'text': 'methylprednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D008775'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'cytosine arabinoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': 'D003561'}]" +862,16820346,Atorvastatin prevented and reversed dexamethasone-induced hypertension in the rat.,"To assess the antioxidant effects of atorvastatin (atorva) on dexamethasone (dex)-induced hypertension, 60 male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with atorva 30 mg/kg/day or tap water for 15 days.

Although these drugs are highly effective and represent the mainstay of transplant immunosuppression, they are associated with acute and chronic nephrotoxicity. Acute nephrotoxicity, which occurs in the early period after transplantation, leads to a higher rate of dialysis, and chronic nephrotoxicity may eventually result in graft loss. Acute and chronic nephrotoxicity is becoming more common as the use of marginal kidneys for transplantation increases. Two recently available immunosuppressive agents, mycophenolate mofetil and sirolimus (rapamycin), have no nephrotoxicity. The use of these drugs in combination with other agents has led to the development of new paradigms of immunosuppressive therapy. This paper reviews the results of clinical trials that have investigated these new approaches to immunosuppression in renal transplant recipients.","[{'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'mycophenolate mofetil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 14, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'C063008'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 139, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 156, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 354, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 376, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 496, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 566, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'mycophenolate mofetil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 716, 'end': 737, 'mesh': 'C063008'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 753, 'end': 762, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 773, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +865,11245434,Erythropoietin restores the anemia-induced reduction in cyclophosphamide cytotoxicity in rat tumors.,"The aim of this study was to examine the impact of anemia prevention by recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) treatment on the cytotoxicity of cyclophosphamide in solid experimental tumors. Anemia was induced using a single dose of carboplatin (50 mg/kg i.v.) resulting in a long-lasting reduction (30%) of the hemoglobin concentration. In a second group, the development of anemia was prevented by rHuEPO (1000 IU/kg) administered s.c. three times/week starting 7 days before carboplatin application. Four days after carboplatin treatment, tumors (DS-sarcoma of the rat) were implanted s.c. onto the hind food dorsum. Neither carboplatin nor rHuEPO treatment influenced tumor growth rate per se. When tumors were treated with a single dose of cyclophosphamide (60 mg/kg i.p.) 5 days after implantation, a growth delay with a subsequent regrowth of the tumors was observed. In the anemia group, the growth delay was significantly shorter compared with nonanemic controls (13.3 days versus 8.6 days). In the group where anemia was prevented by rHuEPO treatment, growth delay was comparable with that of nonanemic controls (13.3 days). These results suggest that chemotherapy-induced anemia reduces cytotoxicity of cyclophosphamide in tumors, whereas correction of anemia by rHuEPO treatment (epoetin alpha) increases the sensitivity, probably as a result of an improved oxygen supply to tumor tissue.","[{'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 28, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cytotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 93, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 152, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'cytotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 232, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 248, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 287, 'end': 293, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'Anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 295, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 337, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 486, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 582, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 634, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 646, 'end': 652, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'sarcoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 657, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D012509'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 732, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 776, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 807, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 958, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 986, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'cytotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1318, 'end': 1334, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1338, 'end': 1344, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1374, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1480, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1491, 'end': 1496, 'mesh': 'D009369'}]" +866,11243580,The role of nitrergic system in lidocaine-induced convulsion in the mouse.,"The effects of N-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (L-NAME) a nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor and L-arginine, a NO precursor, were investigated on lidocaine-induced convulsions.

DESIGN: Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. SETTING: Community hospital. PATIENTS: Twenty-two patients with known reversible perfusion defects. INTERVENTION: Patients underwent dobutamine stress tests per standard protocol. Before dobutamine was begun, no therapy was given during the first visit, and patients were randomized on subsequent visits to receive metoprolol or metoprolol plus glucagon 1 mg. Metoprolol was dosed to achieve a resting predobutamine heart rate below 65 beats/minute or a total intravenous dose of 20 mg. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Metoprolol reduced maximum heart rate 31%, summed stress scores 29%, and summed difference scores 43% versus control. Metoprolol plus glucagon also reduced the maximum heart rate 29% versus control. Summed stress and summed difference scores were not significantly reduced, although they were 18% and 30% lower, respectively, than control. No significant differences were found in any parameter between metoprolol and metoprolol-glucagon. CONCLUSION: During dobutamine stress testing, metoprolol attenuates or eliminates evidence of myocardial ischemia. Glucagon 1 mg, although somewhat effective, does not correct this effect to the extent that it can be administered clinically.","[{'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 76, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 95, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 174, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'technetium-99m sestamibi', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 205, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D017256'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 360, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 575, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 629, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 757, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'Metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 802, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'predobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 844, 'end': 857, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'Metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 960, 'end': 970, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'Metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1088, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1363, 'end': 1373, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1378, 'end': 1388, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1418, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'metoprolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1455, 'mesh': 'D008790'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1493, 'end': 1512, 'mesh': 'D017202'}]" +868,10910842,Prednisolone-induced muscle dysfunction is caused more by atrophy than by altered acetylcholine receptor expression.,"Large doses of glucocorticoids can alter muscle physiology and susceptibility to neuromuscular blocking drugs by mechanisms not clearly understood. We investigated the effects of moderate and large doses of prednisolone on muscle function and pharmacology, and their relationship to changes in muscle size and acetylcholine receptor (AChR) expression. With institutional approval, 35 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated to receive daily subcutaneous doses of 10 mg/kg prednisolone (P10 group), 100 mg/kg prednisolone (P100 group), or an equal volume of saline (S group) for 7 days. A fourth group of rats was pair fed (food restricted) with the P100 rats for 7 days (FR group). On Day 8, the nerve-evoked peak twitch tensions, tetanic tensions, and fatigability, and the dose-response curves of d-tubocurarine in the tibialis cranialis muscle were measured in vivo and related to muscle mass or expression of AChRs. Rate of body weight gain was depressed in the P100, FR, and P10 groups compared with the S group. Tibialis muscle mass was smaller in the P100 group than in the P10 or S groups. The evoked peak twitch and tetanic tensions were less in the P100 group than in the P10 or S groups, however, tension per milligram of muscle mass was greater in the P100 group than in the S group. The 50% effective dose of d-tubocurarine (microg/kg) in the tibialis muscle was smaller in the P10 (33.6 +/- 5.4) than in the S (61.9 +/- 5.0) or the P100 (71.3 +/- 9.6) groups. AChR expression was less in the P10 group than in the S group. The evoked tensions correlated with muscle mass (r(2) = 0.32, P < 0.001), however, not with expression of AChR. The 50% effective dose of d-tubocurarine did not correlate with muscle mass or AChR expression. Our results suggest that the neuromuscular dysfunction after prednisolone is dose-dependent, and derives primarily from muscle atrophy and derives less so from changes in AChR expression. IMPLICATIONS: The mechanisms by which chronic glucocorticoid therapy alters neuromuscular physiology and pharmacology are unclear. We suggest that the observed effects are dose-dependent and derive primarily from muscle atrophy and derive less from changes in acetylcholine receptor expression.","[{'text': 'Prednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D011239'}, {'text': 'muscle dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 21, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D018908'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D001284'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'prednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D011239'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 427, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'prednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 593, 'end': 605, 'mesh': 'D011239'}, {'text': 'prednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 629, 'end': 641, 'mesh': 'D011239'}, {'text': 'tetanic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 852, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D013746'}, {'text': 'd-tubocurarine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 920, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D014403'}, {'text': 'tetanic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D013746'}, {'text': 'd-tubocurarine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1443, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D014403'}, {'text': 'd-tubocurarine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1796, 'end': 1810, 'mesh': 'D014403'}, {'text': 'neuromuscular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1895, 'end': 1920, 'mesh': 'D009468'}, {'text': 'prednisolone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1927, 'end': 1939, 'mesh': 'D011239'}, {'text': 'muscle atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1986, 'end': 2000, 'mesh': 'D009133'}, {'text': 'muscle atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2267, 'end': 2281, 'mesh': 'D009133'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2314, 'end': 2327, 'mesh': 'D000109'}]" +869,10533019,Rapid reversal of life-threatening diltiazem-induced tetany with calcium chloride.,"We describe a patient who developed tetany with sudden respiratory arrest after the infusion of intravenous diltiazem.

Their safety in patients undergoing intracranial surgery is under debate. Patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) were randomized to receive either ketoprofen, 100 mg, three times a day (ketoprofen group, n = 9) or a weak NSAID, acetaminophen, 1 g, three times a day (acetaminophen group, n = 9) starting immediately after the diagnosis of aneurysmal SAH. Treatment was continued for 3 days postoperatively. Test blood samples were taken before treatment and surgery as well as on the first, third, and fifth postoperative mornings. Maximal platelet aggregation induced by 6 microM of adenosine diphosphate decreased after administration of ketoprofen. Aggregation was lower (P < .05) in the ketoprofen group than in the acetaminophen group just before surgery and on the third postoperative day. In contrast, maximal platelet aggregation increased in the acetaminophen group on the third postoperative day as compared with the pretreatment platelet aggregation results (P < .05). One patient in the ketoprofen group developed a postoperative intracranial hematoma. Coagulation (prothrombin time [PT], activated partial thromboplastin time [APPT], fibrinogen concentration, and antithrombin III [AT III]) was comparable between the two groups. Ketoprofen but not acetaminophen impaired platelet function in patients with SAH. If ketoprofen is used before surgery on cerebral artery aneurysms, it may pose an additional risk factor for hemorrhage.","[{'text': 'aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 79, 'end': 113, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 327, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'SAH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 363, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'ketoprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 402, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D007660'}, {'text': 'ketoprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 441, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D007660'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 483, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 522, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'aneurysmal', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 594, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D017542'}, {'text': 'SAH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 605, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'platelet aggregation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 795, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D001791'}, {'text': 'adenosine diphosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D000244'}, {'text': 'ketoprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 895, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D007660'}, {'text': 'ketoprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 946, 'end': 956, 'mesh': 'D007660'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 975, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'platelet aggregation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'D001791'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'platelet aggregation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1195, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'D001791'}, {'text': 'ketoprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D007660'}, {'text': 'hematoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1310, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'D006406'}, {'text': 'Ketoprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1508, 'mesh': 'D007660'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1517, 'end': 1530, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'SAH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1575, 'end': 1578, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'ketoprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1583, 'end': 1593, 'mesh': 'D007660'}, {'text': 'artery aneurysms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1629, 'end': 1645, 'mesh': 'D002532'}, {'text': 'hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1689, 'end': 1699, 'mesh': 'D006470'}]" +871,9523850,Value of methylprednisolone in prevention of the arthralgia-myalgia syndrome associated with the total dose infusion of iron dextran: a double blind randomized trial.,"The safety and efficacy of total dose infusion (TDI) of iron dextran has been well documented. In 40% of treated patients, an arthralgia-myalgia syndrome develops. The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, prospective study was to investigate whether intravenous (i.v.) administration of methylprednisolone (MP) prevents this complication. Sixty-five patients, 34 women and 31 men, ages 36 to 80 years, received either normal saline before and after TDI (group 1), 125 mg i.v. MP before and saline after TDI (group 2), or 125 mg i.v. MP before and after TDI (group 3). Patients were observed for 72 hours and reactions were recorded and graded according to severity. Fifty-eight percent of group 1 patients, 33% of group 2, and 26% of group 3 had reactions to TDI. The severity of reactions (minimal, mild, and moderate, respectively) was as follows: group 1--6, 6, and 2; group 2--1, 5, and 0; group 3--5, 1, and 0. Data were analyzed by the two-sided Fisher's exact test using 95% confidence intervals with the approximation of Woolf.

The molecular mechanisms of CsA and FK506 toxicity were investigated. Cyclophilin A and FK506-binding protein, the main intracytoplasmic receptors for CsA and FK506, respectively, were each detected in renal tissue extract. In the kidney, high levels of immunoreactive and enzymatically active calcineurin were found which were inhibited by the immunosuppressants CsA and FK506, but not by rapamycin. Finally, specific immunophilin-drug-calcineurin complexes formed only in the presence of CsA and FK506, but not rapamycin. These results suggest that the nephrotoxic effects of CsA and FK506 is likely mediated through binding to renal immunophilin and inhibiting calcineurin phosphatase.","[{'text': 'Nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cyclosporin A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'Cyclosporin A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 97, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'Fujimycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 116, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 128, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'macrolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 165, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D018942'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 193, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 321, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 438, 'end': 441, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 452, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 498, 'end': 503, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 564, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 574, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 774, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 800, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 900, 'end': 903, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 908, 'end': 913, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 965, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'FK506', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 996, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D016559'}]" +876,7337133,Massive cerebral edema associated with fulminant hepatic failure in acetaminophen overdose: possible role of cranial decompression.,"Cerebral edema may complicate the course of fulminant hepatic failure.

Wistar rats (180 g) were treated by DEN alone or by DEN + PB during 2, 4 and 6 weeks according to our schedule for hepatocarcinogenesis. After the end of the treatment, the number and the size of induced PAS positive preneoplastic foci was significantly reduced when PB was given simultaneously with DEN for 4 and 6 weeks. The mitotic inhibition and the production of micronuclei normally observed after partial hepatectomy in DEN treated rats were also significantly decreased in DEN + PB treated rats. When the treatment last only 2 weeks, the presence of PB did not change significantly the last parameters. In DEN + PB treated rats, the survival was prolonged and the tumor incidence decreased as compared with the results obtained by DEN alone. It is concluded that PB, which promotes carcinogenesis when administered after the DEN treatment, reduces the carcinogen effect when given simultaneously with DEN. This 'anti-carcinogen' effect acts on the initiation as well as on the promotion of the precancerous lesions.

Forty-four MMC-treated patients were studied, 37 of them could be evaluated. All patients were studied by repeated physical examinations, chest X-rays, electro- and echocardiography and radionuclide left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) determinations. The results were evaluated per cumulative dose level. One of the patients developed cardiac failure after 30 mg m-2 MMC and only 150 mg m-2 doxorubicin. The cardiac failure was predicted by a drop in EF determined during a cold pressor test. None of the other patients developed clinical cardiotoxicity, nor did the studied parameters change. The literature on this subject was also reviewed. Based on the combined data from the present study and the literature, we suggest that MMC-related cardiotoxicity is dose dependent, occurring at cumulative dose levels of 30 mg m-2 or more, mainly in patients also (previously or simultaneously) treated with doxorubicin.

The protection from gentamicin nephrotoxicity was studied in non-diabetic rats with chronic solute diuresis induced by blockage of tubular glucose reabsorption with phlorizin (P). DM rats with mild glycosuria (similar in degree to that of the P treated animals) were also studied. Unanesthetized adult female, Sprague-Dawley rats were divided in four groups and studied for 15 days. Group 1 (P alone) received P, 360 mg/day, for 15 days; Group II (P + gentamicin); Group III (gentamicin alone) and Group IV (mild DM + gentamicin). Nephrotoxic doses (40 mg/kg body wt/day) of gentamicin were injected during the last nine days of study to the animals of groups II to IV.

The aim was to evaluate the effects of high frequency hippocampal stimulation on cortical epileptic activity in penicillin-induced epilepsy model. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted DBS electrodes. In group-1 (n=10) hippocampal DBS was off and in the group-2 (n=10) hippocampal DBS was on (185 Hz, 0.5V, 1V, 2V, and 5V for 60 sec) following penicillin G injection intracortically. In the control group hippocampal DBS was on following 8 l saline injection intracortically. EEG recordings were obtained before and 15 minutes following penicillin-G injection, and at 10th minutes following each stimulus for analysis in terms of frequency, amplitude, and power spectrum. RESULTS: High frequency hippocampal DBS suppressed the acute penicillin-induced cortical epileptic activity independent from stimulus intensity. In the control group, hippocampal stimulation alone lead only to diffuse slowing of cerebral bioelectrical activity at 5V stimulation. CONCLUSION: Our results revealed that continuous high frequency stimulation of the hippocampus suppressed acute cortical epileptic activity effectively without causing secondary epileptic discharges. These results are important in terms of defining the optimal parameters of hippocampal DBS in patients with epilepsy.","[{'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 62, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 107, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 426, 'end': 435, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 467, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'penicillin G', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 711, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'penicillin-G', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 905, 'end': 917, 'mesh': 'D010400'}, {'text': 'penicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1111, 'mesh': 'D010406'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1441, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1628, 'end': 1636, 'mesh': 'D004827'}]" +885,20727411,Neural correlates of S-ketamine induced psychosis during overt continuous verbal fluency.,"The glutamatergic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Administered to healthy volunteers, a subanesthetic dose of the non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist ketamine leads to psychopathological symptoms similar to those observed in schizophrenia. In patients with schizophrenia, ketamine exacerbates the core symptoms of illness, supporting the hypothesis of a glutamatergic dysfunction. In a counterbalanced, placebo-controlled, double-blind study design, healthy subjects were administered a continuous subanesthetic S-ketamine infusion while differences in BOLD responses measured with fMRI were detected. During the scanning period, subjects performed continuous overt verbal fluency tasks (phonological, lexical and semantic). Ketamine-induced psychopathological symptoms were assessed with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Ketamine elicited psychosis like psychopathology. Post-hoc t-tests revealed significant differences between placebo and ketamine for the amounts of words generated during lexical and semantic verbal fluency, while the phonological domain remained unaffected. Ketamine led to enhanced cortical activations in supramarginal and frontal brain regions for phonological and lexical verbal fluency, but not for semantic verbal fluency. Ketamine induces activation changes in healthy subjects similar to those observed in patients with schizophrenia, particularly in frontal and temporal brain regions. Our results provide further support for the hypothesis of an NMDA receptor dysfunction in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.","[{'text': 'S-ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 31, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 40, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 108, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 130, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 191, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 286, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 311, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 386, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 418, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 441, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'glutamatergic dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 515, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'D018754'}, {'text': 'S-ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 673, 'end': 683, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1000, 'end': 1008, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1120, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1259, 'end': 1267, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1529, 'end': 1542, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1657, 'end': 1661, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1709, 'end': 1722, 'mesh': 'D012559'}]" +886,20533999,Dopamine is not essential for the development of methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity.,"It is widely believed that dopamine (DA) mediates methamphetamine (METH)-induced toxicity to brain dopaminergic neurons, because drugs that interfere with DA neurotransmission decrease toxicity, whereas drugs that increase DA neurotransmission enhance toxicity. However, temperature effects of drugs that have been used to manipulate brain DA neurotransmission confound interpretation of the data. Here we show that the recently reported ability of L-dihydroxyphenylalanine to reverse the protective effect of alpha-methyl-para-tyrosine on METH-induced DA neurotoxicity is also confounded by drug effects on body temperature. Further, we show that mice genetically engineered to be deficient in brain DA develop METH neurotoxicity, as long as the thermic effects of METH are preserved. In addition, we demonstrate that mice genetically engineered to have unilateral brain DA deficits develop METH-induced dopaminergic deficits that are of comparable magnitude on both sides of the brain. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that DA is not essential for the development of METH-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity and suggest that mechanisms independent of DA warrant more intense investigation.","[{'text': 'Dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 123, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 155, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 169, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 243, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 273, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 311, 'end': 313, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 340, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 428, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'L-dihydroxyphenylalanine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'alpha-methyl-para-tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 598, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D019805'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 641, 'end': 643, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 644, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 789, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 800, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 805, 'end': 818, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 854, 'end': 858, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 960, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 980, 'end': 984, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopaminergic deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 993, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D009461'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1171, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1193, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +887,20304337,Brainstem dysgenesis in an infant prenatally exposed to cocaine.,"Many authors described the effects on the fetus of maternal cocaine abuse during pregnancy.

Nrf2 is the primary transcription factor that controls the antioxidant response essential for maintaining cellular redox homeostasis. Here, we report our findings demonstrating a protective role of Nrf2 against diabetic nephropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We explore the protective role of Nrf2 against diabetic nephropathy using human kidney biopsy tissues from diabetic nephropathy patients, a streptozotocin-induced diabetic nephropathy model in Nrf2(-/-) mice, and cultured human mesangial cells. RESULTS: The glomeruli of human diabetic nephropathy patients were under oxidative stress and had elevated Nrf2 levels. In the animal study, Nrf2 was demonstrated to be crucial in ameliorating streptozotocin-induced renal damage. This is evident by Nrf2(-/-) mice having higher ROS production and suffering from greater oxidative DNA damage and renal injury compared with Nrf2(+/+) mice. Mechanistic studies in both in vivo and in vitro systems showed that the Nrf2-mediated protection against diabetic nephropathy is, at least, partially through inhibition of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) and reduction of extracellular matrix production. In human renal mesangial cells, high glucose induced ROS production and activated expression of Nrf2 and its downstream genes. Furthermore, activation or overexpression of Nrf2 inhibited the promoter activity of TGF-beta1 in a dose-dependent manner, whereas knockdown of Nrf2 by siRNA enhanced TGF-beta1 transcription and fibronectin production. CONCLUSIONS: This work clearly indicates a protective role of Nrf2 in diabetic nephropathy, suggesting that dietary or therapeutic activation of Nrf2 could be used as a strategy to prevent or slow down the progression of diabetic nephropathy.","[{'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 54, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'Diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 87, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 204, 'end': 210, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 437, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 535, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 595, 'end': 615, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 651, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 765, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 949, 'end': 961, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1426, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1805, 'end': 1825, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1956, 'end': 1976, 'mesh': 'D003928'}]" +889,19996135,High-dose tranexamic Acid is associated with nonischemic clinical seizures in cardiac surgical patients.,"BACKGROUND: In 2 separate centers, we observed a notable increase in the incidence of postoperative convulsive seizures from 1.3% to 3.8% in patients having undergone major cardiac surgical procedures. These events were temporally coincident with the initial use of high-dose tranexamic acid (TXA) therapy after withdrawal of aprotinin from general clinical usage. The purpose of this review was to perform a retrospective analysis to examine whether there was a relation between TXA usage and seizures after cardiac surgery. METHODS: An in-depth chart review was undertaken in all 24 patients who developed perioperative seizures. Electroencephalographic activity was recorded in 11 of these patients, and all patients had a formal neurological evaluation and brain imaging studies. RESULTS: Twenty-one of the 24 patients did not have evidence of new cerebral ischemic injury, but seizures were likely due to ischemic brain injury in 3 patients. All patients with seizures did not have permanent neurological abnormalities. All 24 patients with seizures received high doses of TXA intraoperatively ranging from 61 to 259 mg/kg, had a mean age of 69.9 years, and 21 of 24 had undergone open chamber rather than coronary bypass procedures. All but one patient were managed using cardiopulmonary bypass. No evidence of brain ischemic, metabolic, or hyperthermia-induced causes for their seizures was apparent. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that use of high-dose TXA in older patients in conjunction with cardiopulmonary bypass and open-chamber cardiac surgery is associated with clinical seizures in susceptible patients.","[{'text': 'tranexamic Acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 216, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 381, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'TXA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 401, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'TXA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 599, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 727, 'end': 735, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cerebral ischemic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 987, 'end': 995, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'ischemic brain injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1036, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1070, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neurological abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1102, 'end': 1128, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'TXA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1186, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'brain ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1436, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1498, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'TXA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1567, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1693, 'end': 1701, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +890,19674115,Recurrent dysosmia induced by pyrazinamide.,"Pyrazinamide can have adverse effects such as hepatic toxicity, hyperuricemia or digestive disorders.

Temporary hearing loss is a known toxicity of treatment with DFMO, thus a comprehensive approach was developed to analyze serial air conduction audiograms. The generalized estimating equation method estimated the mean difference between treatment arms with regard to change in air conduction pure tone thresholds while accounting for within-subject correlation due to repeated measurements at frequencies. Based on 290 subjects, there was an average difference of 0.50 dB between subjects treated with DFMO plus sulindac compared with those treated with placebo (95% confidence interval, -0.64 to 1.63 dB; P = 0.39), adjusted for baseline values, age, and frequencies. In the normal speech range of 500 to 3,000 Hz, an estimated difference of 0.99 dB (-0.17 to 2.14 dB; P = 0.09) was detected. Dose intensity did not add information to models. There were 14 of 151 (9.3%) in the DFMO plus sulindac group and 4 of 139 (2.9%) in the placebo group who experienced at least 15 dB hearing reduction from baseline in 2 or more consecutive frequencies across the entire range tested (P = 0.02). Follow-up air conduction done at least 6 months after end of treatment showed an adjusted mean difference in hearing thresholds of 1.08 dB (-0.81 to 2.96 dB; P = 0.26) between treatment arms. There was no significant difference in the proportion of subjects in the DFMO plus sulindac group who experienced clinically significant hearing loss compared with the placebo group. The estimated attributable risk of ototoxicity from exposure to the drug is 8.4% (95% confidence interval, -2.0% to 18.8%; P = 0.12). There is a <2 dB difference in mean threshold for patients treated with DFMO plus sulindac compared with those treated with placebo.","[{'text': 'difluoromethylornithine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 114, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'colorectal adenomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 150, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D015179'}, {'text': 'adenomatous polyps', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 225, 'end': 243, 'mesh': 'D018256'}, {'text': 'difluoromethylornithine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 279, 'end': 302, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'DFMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 315, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 355, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 379, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'DFMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 406, 'end': 410, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'DFMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 847, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'DFMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1224, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'DFMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1698, 'end': 1702, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D013467'}, {'text': 'hearing loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1762, 'end': 1774, 'mesh': 'D034381'}, {'text': 'ototoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1843, 'end': 1854, 'mesh': 'D006311'}, {'text': 'DFMO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2014, 'end': 2018, 'mesh': 'D000518'}, {'text': 'sulindac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2024, 'end': 2032, 'mesh': 'D013467'}]" +892,18239197,Increased mental slowing associated with the APOE epsilon4 allele after trihexyphenidyl oral anticholinergic challenge in healthy elderly.,"OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to examine the relationship between APOE epsilon4 and subjective effects of trihexyphenidyl on measures reflecting sedation and confusion and to investigate the relationship between trihexyphenidyl-induced subjective effects and objective memory performance. METHODS: This study comprised 24 cognitively intact, health elderly adults (12 APOE epsilon4 carriers) at an outpatient geriatric psychiatry research clinic. This was a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, three-way, crossover experimental design. All participants received 1.0 mg or 2.0 mg trihexyphenidyl or placebo administered in counterbalanced sequences over a period of three consecutive weeks. Bond and Lader's visual analog scales and alternate versions of the Buschke Selective Reminding Test were administered in a repeated measures design at baseline, 1, 2.5, and 5 hours postdrug administration. RESULTS: A 2.0-mg oral dose of trihexyphenidyl resulted in increased subjective ratings of mental slowness in carriers of the APOE epsilon4 allele only. Drug effects as determined by difference scores between 2.0 mg trihexyphenidyl and placebo on ratings of mental slowness significantly correlated with total and delayed recall on the Buschke Selective Reminding Test in carriers of the APOE epsilon4 allele only. However, no significant effects were found with other visual analog scales reflecting subjective sedation and clear-headedness. CONCLUSION: The epsilon4 allele in healthy elderly was associated with increased subjective mental slowing after trihexyphenidyl anticholinergic challenge.","[{'text': 'mental slowing', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 10, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'trihexyphenidyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D014282'}, {'text': 'trihexyphenidyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 261, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D014282'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 313, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'trihexyphenidyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 367, 'end': 382, 'mesh': 'D014282'}, {'text': 'trihexyphenidyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 744, 'end': 759, 'mesh': 'D014282'}, {'text': 'trihexyphenidyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1093, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D014282'}, {'text': 'mental slowness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'trihexyphenidyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D014282'}, {'text': 'mental slowness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1320, 'end': 1335, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'mental slowing', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1697, 'end': 1711, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'trihexyphenidyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1718, 'end': 1733, 'mesh': 'D014282'}]" +893,17194457,Behavioral effects of pubertal anabolic androgenic steroid exposure in male rats with low serotonin.,"The goal of this study was to assess the interactive effects of chronic anabolic androgenic steroid (AAS) exposure and brain serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) depletion on behavior of pubertal male rats. Serotonin was depleted beginning on postnatal day 26 with parachlorophenylalanine (PCPA 100 mg/kg, every other day); controls received saline. At puberty (P40), half the PCPA-treated rats and half the saline-treated rats began treatment with testosterone (T, 5 mg/kg, 5 days/week). Behavioral measures included locomotion, irritability, copulation, partner preference, and aggression. Animals were tested for aggression in their home cage, both with and without physical provocation (mild tail pinch). Brain levels of 5-HT and its metabolite, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), were determined using HPLC. PCPA significantly and substantially depleted 5-HT and 5-HIAA in all brain regions examined. Chronic T treatment significantly decreased 5-HT and 5-HIAA in certain brain areas, but to a much lesser extent than PCPA. Chronic exposure to PCPA alone significantly decreased locomotor activity and increased irritability but had no effect on sexual behavior, partner preference, or aggression. T alone had no effect on locomotion, irritability, or sexual behavior but increased partner preference and aggression. The most striking effect of combining T+PCPA was a significant increase in attack frequency as well as a significant decrease in the latency to attack, particularly following physical provocation. Based on these data, it can be speculated that pubertal AAS users with low central 5-HT may be especially prone to exhibit aggressive behavior.","[{'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 51, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 193, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-hydroxytryptamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 237, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 258, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'Serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 318, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'parachlorophenylalanine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 367, 'end': 390, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'PCPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 392, 'end': 396, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'PCPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 483, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 551, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 565, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'irritability', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 632, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'aggression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 682, 'end': 692, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'aggression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 718, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 827, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 852, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D006897'}, {'text': '5-HIAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 880, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D006897'}, {'text': 'PCPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 917, 'end': 921, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 967, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HIAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 978, 'mesh': 'D006897'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1054, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HIAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1063, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D006897'}, {'text': 'PCPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'PCPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1157, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'irritability', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'aggression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1307, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'irritability', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'aggression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1424, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1464, 'end': 1465, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'PCPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1466, 'end': 1470, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1706, 'end': 1710, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'aggressive behavior', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1746, 'end': 1765, 'mesh': 'D001523'}]" +894,16132524,Intracavitary chemotherapy (paclitaxel/carboplatin liquid crystalline cubic phases) for recurrent glioblastoma -- clinical observations.,"Human malignant brain tumors have a poor prognosis in spite of surgery and radiation therapy.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether glucocorticoid treatment can directly affect the outflow facility of isolated, perfusion-cultured human eyes. METHODS: The anterior segments of human donor eyes from regional eye banks were placed in a constant flow, variable pressure perfusion culture system. Paired eyes were perfused in serum-free media with or without 10(-7) M dexamethasone for 12 days. Intraocular pressure was monitored daily. After incubation, the eyes were morphologically characterized by light microscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, and scanning laser confocal microscopy. RESULTS: A significant increase in intraocular pressure developed in 13 of the 44 pairs of eyes perfused with dexamethasone with an average pressure rise of 17.5 +/- 3.8 mm Hg after 12 days of dexamethasone exposure. The contralateral control eyes, which did not receive dexamethasone, maintained a stable intraocular pressure during the same period. The outflow pathway of the untreated eyes appeared morphologically normal. In contrast, the dexamethasone-treated hypertensive eyes had thickened trabecular beams, decreased intertrabecular spaces, thickened juxtacanalicular tissue, activated trabecular meshwork cells, and increased amounts of amorphogranular extracellular material, especially in the juxtacanalicular tissue and beneath the endothelial lining of the canal of Schlemm. The dexamethasone-treated nonresponder eyes appeared to be morphologically similar to the untreated eyes, although several subtle dexamethasone-induced morphologic changes were evident. CONCLUSION: Dexamethasone treatment of isolated, perfusion-cultured human eyes led to the generation of ocular hypertension in approximately 30% of the dexamethasone-treated eyes. Steroid treatment resulted in morphologic changes in the trabecular meshwork similar to those reported for corticosteroid glaucoma and open angle glaucoma. This system may provide an acute model in which to study the pathogenic mechanisms involved in steroid glaucoma and primary open angle glaucoma.","[{'text': 'Dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 22, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 146, 'end': 165, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'corticosteroid glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 170, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 665, 'end': 678, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1097, 'end': 1110, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1175, 'end': 1188, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1347, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertensive eyes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1369, 'end': 1386, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1696, 'end': 1709, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1822, 'end': 1835, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1890, 'end': 1903, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1982, 'end': 2001, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2030, 'end': 2043, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2058, 'end': 2065, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'corticosteroid glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2165, 'end': 2188, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'open angle glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2193, 'end': 2212, 'mesh': 'D005902'}, {'text': 'steroid glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2309, 'end': 2325, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'primary open angle glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2330, 'end': 2357, 'mesh': 'D005902'}]" +901,7803371,Cognitive deterioration from long-term abuse of dextromethorphan: a case report.,"Dextromethorphan (DM), the dextrorotatory isomer of 3-hydroxy-N-methylmorphinan, is the main ingredient in a number of widely available, over-the-counter antitussives.

Through August 1986, a total of 163 cases of this syndrome were reported. To elucidate the epidemiology of the syndrome, a case-control study was performed, comparing 62 of the case patients who had been reported to the spontaneous reporting system to 185 suprofen-exposed control subjects who did not have the syndrome. Case patients were more likely to be men (odds ratio, 3.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-12.1), suffer from hay fever and asthma (odds ratio, 3.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.0-11.9); to participate in regular exercise (odds ratio, 5.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.1-30.7), especially in the use of Nautilus equipment (p = 0.02); and to use alcohol (odds ratio, 4.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.1-17.5). Possible risk factors included young age, concurrent use of other analgesic agents (especially ibuprofen), preexisting renal disease, a history of kidney stones, a history of gout, a recent increase in activity, a recent increase in sun exposure, and residence in the Sunbelt. These were findings that were suggestive but did not reach conventional statistical significance.

Although most of the hepatomas were well-differentiated tumors and contained a considerable number of peroxisomes, the tumor cells did not respond to ethyl-alpha-p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate with proliferation of peroxisomes. At the 16th week of carcinogen feeding, hyperplastic nodules appeared and advanced to further stages. A majority of the nodules showed a considerable number of peroxisomes and the inductive proliferation of peroxisomes. Within the nodules, foci of proliferation of the cells that showed no inducibility of proliferation of peroxisomes appeared. These cells proliferated further, replacing the most part of the nodules, and with this process hepatomas appeared to have been formed. No abnormal matrical inclusions of peroxisomes were formed in the cells of hyperplastic nodules by ethyl-alpha-p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate unlike in the case of rats.","[{'text': 'hepatoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 50, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'alpha-benzene hexachloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'hepatomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 121, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'liver lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D017093'}, {'text': 'alpha-benzene hexachloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 203, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'hepatomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 311, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 346, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 409, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'ethyl-alpha-p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 440, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'C012282'}, {'text': 'hepatomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 955, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'ethyl-alpha-p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1132, 'mesh': 'C012282'}]" +909,48362,Quinidine hepatitis.,"Long-term administration of quinidine was associated with persistent elevation of serum concentrations of SGOT, lactic acid dehydrogenase, and alkaline phosphatase.

To further our understanding of the mechanism of CS cytoprotection, we examined in rats and mice the protective abilities of CS and the non-hydrolyzable ether form of CS, gamma-cholesteryloxybutyric acid, tris salt (CSE) against acetaminophen-, adriamycin-, carbon tetrachloride-, chloroform- and galactosamine-induced toxicity. The results of these studies demonstrated that CS-mediated protection is not selective for a particular species, organ system or toxic chemical. A 24-h pretreatment of both rats and mice with a single dose of CS (100mg/kg, i.p.), resulted in significant protection against the hepatotoxic effects of CCl4, CHCl3, acetaminophen and galactosamine and against the lethal (and presumably cardiotoxic) effect of adriamycin administration. Maximal CS-mediated protection was observed in experimental animals pretreated 24 h prior to the toxic insult. These data suggest that CS intervenes in a critical cellular event that is an important common pathway to toxic cell death. The mechanism of CS protection does not appear to be dependent on the inhibition of chemical bioactivation to a toxic reactive intermediate (in light of the protection observed against galactosamine hepatotoxicity). However, based on the data presented, we can not exclude the possibility that CS administration inhibits chemical bioactivation. Our findings do suggest that CS-mediated protection is dependent on the action of the intact anionic CS molecule (non-hydrolyzable CSE was as protective as CS), whose mechanism has yet to be defined.","[{'text': 'Cholesteryl hemisuccinate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'C013440'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 94, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'carbon tetrachloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D002251'}, {'text': 'chloroform', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 128, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D002725'}, {'text': 'galactosamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D005688'}, {'text': 'cholesteryl hemisuccinate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 222, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'C013440'}, {'text': 'tris salt', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 249, 'end': 258, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 260, 'end': 262, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 324, 'end': 335, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'carbon tetrachloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 347, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D002251'}, {'text': 'CCl4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 369, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D002251'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 425, 'end': 427, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 503, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 543, 'end': 545, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'gamma-cholesteryloxybutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 547, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'C103872'}, {'text': 'tris salt', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 581, 'end': 590, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CSE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 595, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 618, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'carbon tetrachloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 634, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D002251'}, {'text': 'chloroform', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 657, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D002725'}, {'text': 'galactosamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 673, 'end': 686, 'mesh': 'D005688'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 695, 'end': 703, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 752, 'end': 754, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 914, 'end': 916, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 982, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'CCl4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1005, 'end': 1009, 'mesh': 'D002251'}, {'text': 'CHCl3', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1016, 'mesh': 'D002725'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1031, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'galactosamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D005688'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1089, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1122, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'galactosamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1559, 'end': 1572, 'mesh': 'D005688'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1587, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1668, 'end': 1670, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1748, 'end': 1750, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1820, 'end': 1822, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CSE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1850, 'end': 1853, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1875, 'end': 1877, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +911,19274460,DSMM XI study: dose definition for intravenous cyclophosphamide in combination with bortezomib/dexamethasone for remission induction in patients with newly diagnosed myeloma.,"A clinical trial was initiated to evaluate the recommended dose of cyclophosphamide in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone as induction treatment before stem cell transplantation for younger patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM). Thirty patients were treated with three 21-day cycles of bortezomib 1.3 mg/m(2) on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 plus dexamethasone 40 mg on the day of bortezomib injection and the day after plus cyclophosphamide at 900, 1,200, or 1,500 mg/m(2) on day 1. The maximum tolerated dose of cyclophosphamide was defined as 900 mg/m(2). At this dose level, 92% of patients achieved at least a partial response. The overall response rate [complete response (CR) plus partial response (PR)] across all dose levels was 77%, with a 10% CR rate. No patient experienced progressive disease. The most frequent adverse events were hematological and gastrointestinal toxicities as well as neuropathy.

METHODS: This comparative, Phase III, 12-week, multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind study was conducted in Indian patients aged 18 to 65 years with established stage II hypertension. Patients were treated with oral FDC of T+A or A QD before breakfast for 12 weeks; blood pressure (BP) and heart rate were measured in the sitting position. Primary efficacy end points were reduction in clinical systolic BP (SBP)/ diastolic BP (DBP) from baseline to study end and number of responders (ie, patients who achieved target SBP/ DBP <130/<80 mm Hg) at end of study. Tolerability was assessed by treatment-emergent adverse events, identified using physical examination, laboratory analysis, and electrocardiography. RESULTS: A total of 210 patients were enrolled in the study; 203 patients (143 men, 60 women) completed the study while 7 were lost to follow-up (4 patients in the T+A group and 3 in the A group) and considered with-drawn. At study end, statistically significant percentage reductions from baseline within groups and between groups were observed in SBP (T+A [-27.4%]; A [-16.6%]) and DBP (T+A [-20.1%]; A [-13.3%]) (all, P < 0.05). Response rates were 87.3% (89/102) in the T+A group and 69.3% (70/101) in the A group (P < 0.05). The prevalences of adverse events were not significantly different between the 2 treatment groups (T+A, 16.0% [17/106]; A, 15.4% [16/104]). Peripheral edema was reported in 8.5% patients (9/106) in the T+A group compared with 13.5% (14/104) in the A group, and cough was reported in 3.8% patients (4/106) in the T+A group and 1.0% (1/104) patients in the A group; these differences did not reach statistical significance. The incidences of headache, dizziness, and diarrhea were similar between the 2 groups.

Dexrazoxane (ICRF-187) is recommended for protection against anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Because of their widespread use, the hematologic toxicity following coadministration of dexrazoxane and these three structurally different DNA cleavage enhancers was investigated: Sensitivity of human and murine blood progenitor cells to etoposide, daunorubicin, and doxorubicin +/- dexrazoxane was determined in granulocyte-macrophage colony forming assays. Likewise, in vivo, B6D2F1 mice were treated with etoposide, daunorubicin, and doxorubicin, with or without dexrazoxane over a wide range of doses: posttreatment, a full hematologic evaluation was done. RESULTS: Nontoxic doses of dexrazoxane reduced myelosuppression and weight loss from daunorubicin and etoposide in mice and antagonized their antiproliferative effects in the colony assay; however, dexrazoxane neither reduced myelosuppression, weight loss, nor the in vitro cytotoxicity from doxorubicin. CONCLUSION: Although our findings support the observation that dexrazoxane reduces neither hematologic activity nor antitumor activity from doxorubicin clinically, the potent antagonism of daunorubicin activity raises concern; a possible interference with anticancer efficacy certainly would call for renewed attention. Our data also suggest that significant etoposide dose escalation is perhaps possible by the use of dexrazoxane. Clinical trials in patients with brain metastases combining dexrazoxane and high doses of etoposide is ongoing with the aim of improving efficacy without aggravating hematologic toxicity. If successful, this represents an exciting mechanism for pharmacologic regulation of side effects from cytotoxic chemotherapy.","[{'text': 'Dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'myelosuppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 29, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 84, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'daunorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 98, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'anthracyclines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'daunorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 177, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'epipodophyllotoxin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 197, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D011034'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 216, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'myelosuppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 318, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 355, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'Dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 373, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'ICRF-187', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 386, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 434, 'end': 447, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'hematologic toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 530, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D006402'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 581, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 740, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'daunorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 776, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 901, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'daunorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 912, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 930, 'end': 941, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 959, 'end': 970, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'myelosuppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'weight loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'daunorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1165, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1263, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'myelosuppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1280, 'end': 1296, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'weight loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'cytotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1328, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1346, 'end': 1357, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1499, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'daunorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1560, 'mesh': 'D003630'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1718, 'end': 1727, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1778, 'end': 1789, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'metastases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1830, 'end': 1840, 'mesh': 'D009362'}, {'text': 'dexrazoxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1851, 'end': 1862, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'etoposide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1881, 'end': 1890, 'mesh': 'D005047'}, {'text': 'hematologic toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1957, 'end': 1977, 'mesh': 'D006402'}]" +916,6817363,Effects of the novel compound aniracetam (Ro 13-5057) upon impaired learning and memory in rodents.,"The effect of aniracetam (Ro 13-5057, 1-anisoyl-2-pyrrolidinone) was studied on various forms of experimentally impaired cognitive functions (learning and memory) in rodents and produced the following effects: (1) almost complete prevention of the incapacity to learn a discrete escape response in rats exposed to sublethal hypercapnia immediately before the acquisition session; (2) partial (rats) or complete (mice) prevention of the scopolamine-induced short-term amnesia for a passive avoidance task; (3) complete protection against amnesia for a passive avoidance task in rats submitted to electroconvulsive shock immediately after avoidance acquisition; (4) prevention of the long-term retention- or retrieval-deficit for a passive avoidance task induced in rats and mice by chloramphenicol or cycloheximide administered immediately after acquisition; (5) reversal, when administered as late as 1 h before the retention test, of the deficit in retention or retrieval of a passive avoidance task induced by cycloheximide injected 2 days previously; (6) prevention of the deficit in the retrieval of an active avoidance task induced in mice by subconvulsant electroshock or hypercapnia applied immediately before retrieval testing (24 h after acquisition). These improvements or normalizations of impaired cognitive functions were seen at oral aniracetam doses of 10-100 mg/kg. Generally, the dose-response curves were bell-shaped. The mechanisms underlying the activity of aniracetam and its 'therapeutic window' are unknown. Piracetam, another pyrrolidinone derivative was used for comparison. It was active only in six of nine tests and had about one-tenth the potency of aniracetam.

Morphine but not nicotine induced a dose-dependent catalepsy. The response of morphine was potentiated by nicotine. Intraperitoneal administration of atropine, naloxone, mecamylamine, and hexamethonium to mice reduced catalepsy induced by a combination of morphine with nicotine. Intracerebroventricular injection of atropine, hexamethonium, and naloxone also decreased catalepsy induced by morphine plus nicotine. Intraperitoneal administration of atropine, but not intraperitoneal or intracerebroventricular injection of hexamethonium, decreased the effect of a single dose of morphine.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: Two hundred ninety-seven patients with MBC and no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease were randomized to receive either 60 mg/m(2) of Myocet (M) or conventional doxorubicin (A), in combination with 600 mg/m(2) of cyclophosphamide (C), every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cardiotoxicity was defined by reductions in left-ventricular ejection fraction, assessed by serial multigated radionuclide angiography scans, or congestive heart failure (CHF). Antitumor efficacy was assessed by objective tumor response rates (World Health Organization criteria), time to progression, and survival. RESULTS: Six percent of MC patients versus 21% (including five cases of CHF) of AC patients developed cardiotoxicity (P =.0002). Median cumulative doxorubicin dose at onset was more than 2,220 mg/m(2) for MC versus 480 mg/m(2) for AC (P =.0001, hazard ratio, 5.04). MC patients also experienced less grade 4 neutropenia. Antitumor efficacy of MC versus AC was comparable: objective response rates, 43% versus 43%; median time to progression, 5.1% versus 5.5 months; median time to treatment failure, 4.6 versus 4.4 months; and median survival, 19 versus 16 months.

A partial recovery of bupivacaine-induced ECG alterations was observed after pretreatment of the rats with BN 52021. Since the administration of BN 52021, at all doses studied, did not alter MBP and HR at the doses used, the bulk of these results clearly demonstrate a protective action of BN 52021, a specific antagonist of PAF, against bupivacaine-induced cardiovascular toxicity. Thus, consistent with its direct effect on heart, PAF appears to be implicated in bupivacaine-induced cardiovascular alterations.","[{'text': 'BN 52021', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 71, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'C045856'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 84, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular impairments', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'BN 52021', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'C045856'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 483, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'BN 52021', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'C045856'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'BN 52021', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 719, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'C045856'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 775, 'end': 786, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 930, 'end': 941, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'BN 52021', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1023, 'mesh': 'C045856'}, {'text': 'BN 52021', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'C045856'}, {'text': 'BN 52021', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1198, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'C045856'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1257, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1266, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1373, 'end': 1384, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular alterations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1393, 'end': 1419, 'mesh': 'D018376'}]" +920,2257294,Benzylacyclouridine reverses azidothymidine-induced marrow suppression without impairment of anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity.,"Increased extracellular concentrations of uridine (Urd) have been reported to reduce, in vitro, azidothymidine (AZT)-induced inhibition of human granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells without impairment of its antihuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV) activity. Because of the clinical toxicities associated with chronic Urd administration, the ability of benzylacyclouridine (BAU) to effect, in vivo, AZT-induced anemia and leukopenia was assessed. This agent inhibits Urd catabolism and, in vivo, increases the plasma concentration of Urd in a dose-dependent manner, without Urd-related toxicity. In mice rendered anemic and leukopenic by the administration of AZT for 28 days in drinking water (1.5 mg/mL), the continued administration of AZT plus daily BAU (300 mg/kg, orally) partially reversed AZT-induced anemia and leukopenia (P less than .05), increased peripheral reticulocytes (to 4.9%, P less than .01), increased cellularity in the marrow, and improved megaloblastosis. When coadministered with AZT from the onset of drug administration, BAU reduced AZT-induced marrow toxicity. In vitro, at a concentration of 100 mumol/L, BAU possesses minimal anti-HIV activity and has no effect on the ability of AZT to reverse the HIV-induced cytopathic effect in MT4 cells. The clinical and biochemical implications of these findings are discussed.","[{'text': 'Benzylacyclouridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'C034753'}, {'text': 'azidothymidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'marrow suppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 52, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'immunodeficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D007153'}, {'text': 'uridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D014529'}, {'text': 'Urd', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 188, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D014529'}, {'text': 'azidothymidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 233, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 249, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'immunodeficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 358, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D007153'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 421, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Urd', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D014529'}, {'text': 'benzylacyclouridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 491, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'C034753'}, {'text': 'BAU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'C034753'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 549, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'leukopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 560, 'end': 570, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'Urd', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D014529'}, {'text': 'Urd', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 672, 'end': 675, 'mesh': 'D014529'}, {'text': 'Urd', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 715, 'mesh': 'D014529'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 724, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'anemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 751, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'leukopenic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 762, 'end': 772, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 798, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 877, 'end': 880, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'BAU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 892, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'C034753'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 935, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 947, 'end': 953, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'leukopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 958, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'megaloblastosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1116, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1143, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'BAU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'C034753'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1198, 'end': 1201, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'marrow toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'BAU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1272, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'C034753'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1348, 'end': 1351, 'mesh': 'D015215'}]" +921,10840460,Cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis in freely-moving conscious rats: behavioral approach to a new model of visceral pain.,"PURPOSE: To develop a model of visceral pain in rats using a behavioral approach. Cyclophosphamide (CP), an antitumoral agent known to produce toxic effects on the bladder wall through its main toxic metabolite acrolein, was used to induce cystitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CP was administered at doses of 50, 100 and 200 mg./kg. i.p. to male rats, and their behavior observed and scored. The effects of morphine (0.5 to 4 mg./kg. i.v.) on CP-induced behavioral modifications were tested administered alone and after naloxone (1 mg./kg. s.c.). In addition, 90 minutes after CP injection, that is, at the time of administration of morphine, the bladder was removed in some rats for histological examination. Finally, to show that the bladder is essential for the CP-induced behavioral modifications, female rats also received CP at doses of 200 mg./kg. i.p. and of 20 mg. by the intravesical route, and acrolein at doses of 0.5 mg. by the intravesical route and of 5 mg./kg. i.v. RESULTS: CP dose-relatedly induced marked behavioral modifications in male rats: breathing rate decrease, closing of the eyes and occurrence of specific postures. Morphine dose-dependently reversed these behavioral disorders. A dose of 0.5 mg./kg. produced a reduction of almost 50% of the behavioral score induced by CP 200 mg./kg. This effect was completely prevented by pretreatment with naloxone. At the time of administration of morphine, histological modifications of the bladder wall, such as chorionic and muscle layer edema, were observed. In female rats, CP 200 mg./kg. i.p. produced the same marked behavioral modifications as those observed in male rats. Administered at the dose of 20 mg. intravesically, CP did not produce any behavioral effects, whereas acrolein at 0.5 mg. intravesically induced behavioral modifications identical to those under CP 200 mg./kg. i.p., with the same maximal levels. Conversely, acrolein 5 mg./kg. i.v. did not produce any behavioral effects at all. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, these results indicate that this experimental model of CP-induced cystitis may be an interesting new behavioral model of inflammatory visceral pain, allowing a better understanding of these painful syndromes and thus a better therapeutic approach to them.","[{'text': 'Cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'visceral pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 105, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D059265'}, {'text': 'visceral pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 151, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D059265'}, {'text': 'Cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 202, 'end': 218, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 220, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'acrolein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D000171'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 360, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 393, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 523, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 693, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 749, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 881, 'end': 883, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 944, 'end': 946, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'acrolein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1021, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D000171'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1109, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'Morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'behavioral disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1322, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'naloxone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1497, 'mesh': 'D009270'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1532, 'end': 1540, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1630, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1663, 'end': 1665, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1816, 'end': 1818, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'acrolein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1867, 'end': 1875, 'mesh': 'D000171'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1960, 'end': 1962, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'acrolein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2023, 'end': 2031, 'mesh': 'D000171'}, {'text': 'CP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2171, 'end': 2173, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2182, 'end': 2190, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'visceral pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2250, 'end': 2263, 'mesh': 'D059265'}, {'text': 'painful syndromes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2306, 'end': 2323, 'mesh': 'D010146'}]" +922,8278214,Hyperalgesia and myoclonus in terminal cancer patients treated with continuous intravenous morphine.,"Eight cancer patients in the terminal stages of the disease treated with high doses of intravenous morphine developed hyperalgesia.

An activated moiety, i.e. N-acylimidazole derivative of etodolac (EAI), was condensed with the polysaccharide polymer dextran of different molecular weights (40000, 60000, 110000 and 200000). IR spectral data confirmed formation of ester bonding in the conjugates. Etodolac contents were evaluated by UV-spectrophotometric analysis. The molecular weights were determined by measuring viscosity using the Mark-Howink-Sakurada equation. In vitro hydrolysis of ED was done in aqueous buffers (pH 1.2, 7.4, 9) and in 80% (v/v) human plasma (pH 7.4). At pH 9, a higher rate of etodolac release from ED was observed as compared to aqueous buffer of pH 7.4 and 80% human plasma (pH 7.4), following first-order kinetics. In vivo investigations were performed in animals. Acute analgesic and antiinflammatory activities were ascertained using acetic acid induced writhing model (mice) and carrageenan-induced rat paw edema model, respectively. In comparison to control, E and ED1-ED4 showed highly significant analgesic and antiinflammatory activities (p <0.001). Biological evaluation suggested that conjugates (ED1-ED4) retained comparable analgesic and antiinflammatory activities with remarkably reduced ulcerogenicity as compared to their parent drug--etodolac.","[{'text': 'Dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D003911'}, {'text': 'etodolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 8, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'Etodolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 173, 'mesh': 'D003911'}, {'text': 'etodolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 222, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 231, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D003911'}, {'text': 'N-acylimidazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 357, 'end': 372, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'etodolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'EAI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 397, 'end': 400, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'dextran', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 449, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D003911'}, {'text': 'Etodolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 596, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'etodolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 903, 'end': 911, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'acetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D019342'}, {'text': 'writhing', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1185, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'carrageenan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D002351'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1239, 'end': 1244, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1292, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D017308'}, {'text': 'etodolac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1587, 'mesh': 'D017308'}]" +926,15266362,Hypersensitivity myocarditis complicating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy heart.,"The present report describes a case of eosinophilic myocarditis complicating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Delayed recognition and treatment of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia contribute to poor patient outcomes. OBJECTIVE: To describe and increase awareness of a clinical scenario in which the onset or manifestations of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia are delayed. DESIGN: Retrospective case series. SETTING: Three large urban hospitals (with active cardiovascular surgery programs). PATIENTS: 14 patients seen over a 3-year period in whom heparin-induced thrombocytopenia became apparent on delayed presentation with thromboembolic complications. MEASUREMENTS: Platelet counts, onset of objectively determined thromboembolism, results of heparin-induced platelet factor 4 antibody tests, and outcomes. RESULTS: Patients went home after hospitalizations that had included heparin exposure--in most cases, with no thrombocytopenia recognized--only to return to the hospital (median, day 14) with thromboembolic complications. Thromboemboli were venous (12 patients, 7 with pulmonary emboli) or arterial (4 patients) or both. Platelet counts were mildly decreased in all but 2 patients on second presentation. On readmission, 11 patients received therapeutic heparin, which worsened the patients' clinical condition and, in all 11 cases, decreased the platelet count (mean at readmission, 143 x 10(9) cells/L; mean nadir after heparin re-exposure, 39 x 10(9) cells/L). Results of serologic tests for heparin-induced antibodies were positive in all patients. Subsequent treatments included alternative anticoagulants (11 patients), thrombolytic drugs (3 patients), inferior vena cava filters (3 patients) and, eventually, warfarin (11 patients). Three patients died. CONCLUSIONS: Delayed-onset heparin-induced thrombocytopenia is increasingly being recognized. To avoid disastrous outcomes, physicians must consider heparin-induced thrombocytopenia whenever a recently hospitalized patient returns with thromboembolism; therapy with alternative anticoagulants, not heparin, should be initiated.","[{'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 14, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 30, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'Heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 76, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 121, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 242, 'end': 258, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 405, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 421, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 626, 'end': 633, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 642, 'end': 658, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thromboembolic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 704, 'end': 718, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 797, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 958, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 999, 'end': 1015, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thromboembolic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'Thromboemboli', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'pulmonary emboli', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1158, 'end': 1174, 'mesh': 'D011655'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1518, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1584, 'end': 1591, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1805, 'end': 1813, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1877, 'end': 1884, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1893, 'end': 1909, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1999, 'end': 2006, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2015, 'end': 2031, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2086, 'end': 2101, 'mesh': 'D013923'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2148, 'end': 2155, 'mesh': 'D006493'}]" +929,8841157,"Valsartan, a new angiotensin II antagonist for the treatment of essential hypertension: a comparative study of the efficacy and safety against amlodipine.","OBJECTIVE: To compare the antihypertensive efficacy of a new angiotensin II antagonist, valsartan, with a reference therapy, amlodipine. METHODS: One hundred sixty-eight adult outpatients with mild to moderate hypertension were randomly allocated in double-blind fashion and equal number to receive 80 mg valsartan or 5 mg amlodipine for 12 weeks. After 8 weeks of therapy, in patients whose blood pressure remained uncontrolled, 5 mg amlodipine was added to the initial therapy. Patients were assessed at 4, 8, and 12 weeks. The primary efficacy variable was change from baseline in mean sitting diastolic blood pressure at 8 weeks. Secondary variables included change in sitting systolic blood pressure and responder rates. RESULTS: Both valsartan and amlodipine were effective at lowering blood pressure at 4, 8, and 12 weeks. Similar decreases were observed in both groups, with no statistically significant differences between the groups for any variable analyzed. For the primary variable the difference was 0.5 mm Hg in favor of valsartan (p = 0.68; 95% confidence interval, -2.7 to 1.7). Responder rates at 8 weeks were 66.7% for valsartan and 60.2% for amlodipine (p = 0.39). Both treatments were well tolerated. The incidence of drug-related dependent edema was somewhat higher in the amlodipine group, particularly at a dose of 10 mg per day (2.4% for 80 mg valsartan; 3.6% for 5 mg amlodipine; 0% for valsartan plus 5 mg amlodipine; 14.3% for 10 mg amlodipine). CONCLUSIONS: The data show that valsartan is at least as effective as amlodipine in the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension. The results also show valsartan to be well tolerated and suggest that it is not associated with side effects characteristic of this comparator class, dihydropyridine calcium antagonists.","[{'text': 'Valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 74, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 216, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 243, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 280, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 365, 'end': 377, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 460, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 478, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 590, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 895, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 909, 'end': 919, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1302, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1317, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1417, 'end': 1422, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1460, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1524, 'end': 1533, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1549, 'end': 1559, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1577, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1588, 'end': 1598, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1616, 'end': 1626, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1661, 'end': 1670, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'amlodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1699, 'end': 1709, 'mesh': 'D017311'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1747, 'end': 1759, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1783, 'end': 1792, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'dihydropyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1911, 'end': 1926, 'mesh': 'C038806'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1927, 'end': 1934, 'mesh': 'D002118'}]" +930,8045270,KF17837: a novel selective adenosine A2A receptor antagonist with anticataleptic activity.,"KF17837 is a novel selective adenosine A2A receptor antagonist.

Moreover, KF17837 (0.625 mg/kg p.o.) potentiated the anticataleptic effects of a subthreshold dose of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA; 25 mg/kg i.p.) plus benserazide (6.25 mg/kg i.p.). These results suggested that KF17837 is a centrally active adenosine A2A receptor antagonist and that the dopaminergic function of the nigrostriatal pathway is potentiated by adenosine A2A receptor antagonists. Furthermore, KF17837 may be a useful drug in the treatment of parkinsonism.","[{'text': 'KF17837', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'C081198'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'KF17837', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'C081198'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 120, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'KF17837', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 178, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'C081198'}, {'text': 'cataleptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 243, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 320, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'CGS 21680', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 352, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'C061282'}, {'text': 'KF17837', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 407, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'C081198'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 432, 'end': 441, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 453, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'reserpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D012110'}, {'text': 'KF17837', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 638, 'end': 645, 'mesh': 'C081198'}, {'text': 'L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 730, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 766, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'benserazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 788, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'D001545'}, {'text': 'KF17837', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 848, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'C081198'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 994, 'end': 1003, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'KF17837', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1050, 'mesh': 'C081198'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1104, 'mesh': 'D010302'}]" +931,2576810,Some central effects of repeated treatment with fluvoxamine.,"We investigated the effect of repeated treatment with fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin uptake inhibitor, on behavioral effects of dopaminomimetics and methoxamine and on the animal behavior in the ""behavioral despair"" test.

The condition is treated with intravenous thyroxine (T4) or intravenous tri-iodo-thyronine (T3). Patients with CHF on amiodarone may suffer serious morbidity and mortality from hypothyroidism, and thus may deserve closer follow up for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels. This case report carries an important clinical application given the frequent usage of amiodarone among CHF patients.

In contrast, the fear-potentiated startle (FPS) is suggested to model conditioned fear. However, the pharmacological profiles of these two paradigms are very similar. The present study investigated the effects of putative anxiogenic drugs on LES and FPS and aimed at determining the sensitivity of LES for anxiogenic drugs and to potentially showing a pharmacological differentiation between these two paradigms. METHODS: Male Wistar rats received each dose of the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist yohimbine (0.25-1.0mg/kg), the 5-HT(2C) receptor agonist m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP, 0.5-2.0mg/kg) or the GABA(A) inverse receptor agonist pentylenetetrazole (PTZ, 3-30mg/kg) and were subsequently tested in either LES or FPS. RESULTS: None of the drugs enhanced LES, whereas mCPP increased percentage FPS and yohimbine increased absolute FPS values. Furthermore, yohimbine increased baseline startle amplitude in the LES, while mCPP suppressed baseline startle in both the LES and FPS and PTZ suppressed baseline startle in the FPS. CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to findings in the FPS paradigm, none of the drugs were able to exacerbate the LES response. Thus, a clear pharmacological differentiation was found between LES and FPS.","[{'text': 'startle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 17, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D012021'}, {'text': 'startle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D012021'}, {'text': 'startle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 136, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D012021'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 181, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'startle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 282, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D012021'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 746, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 777, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'm-chlorophenylpiperazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 803, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'C015068'}, {'text': 'mCPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 829, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'C015068'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'pentylenetetrazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 889, 'end': 907, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 909, 'end': 912, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'mCPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1025, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'C015068'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'yohimbine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1113, 'end': 1122, 'mesh': 'D015016'}, {'text': 'startle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D012021'}, {'text': 'mCPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'C015068'}, {'text': 'startle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1203, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D012021'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1239, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'startle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1270, 'mesh': 'D012021'}]" +934,19203554,Proteinase 3-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-(PR3-ANCA) positive necrotizing glomerulonephritis after restarting sulphasalazine treatment.,"A 59-year-old woman with ulcerative colitis developed red eyes, pleural effusion, eosinophilia and urinary abnormalities after restarting of sulphasalazine treatment. Light microscopy of a kidney biopsy revealed segmental necrotizing glomerulonephritis without deposition of immunoglobulin or complement. Proteinase 3-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (PR3-ANCA) titer was elevated at 183 ELISA units (EU) in sera (normal range less than 10 EU), myeloperoxidase-ANCA was negative. PR3-ANCA titer was 250 and 1,070 EU in pleural effusions on right and left side, respectively. Although cessation of sulphasalazine treatment resulted in improvements in fever, red eyes, chest pain, titer of C-reactive protein and volume of the pleural effusions, we initiated steroid therapy, because PR3-ANCA titer rose to 320 EU, eosinophil count increased to 1,100 cells/microl, and the pleural effusion remained. One month after steroid therapy, the pleural effusion disappeared, and PR3-ANCA titer normalized 3 months later.

Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid [ASA]), an irreversible cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 inhibitor, induces developmental anomalies when administered to Wistar rats on gestational day (GD) 9, 10, or 11 (Kimmel CA, Wilson JG, Schumacher HJ. Teratology 4:15-24, 1971). There are no published ASA studies using the multiple dosing paradigm of GDs 6 to 17. Objectives of the current study were to compare results between Sprague-Dawley (SD) and Wistar strains when ASA is administered on GD 9, 10, or 11; to compare the malformation patterns following single and multiple dosings during organogenesis in SD rats; and to test the hypothesis that maternal gastrointestinal toxicity confounds the detection of low incidence malformations with ASA when a multiple dosing paradigm is used. METHODS: ASA was administered as a single dose on GD 9 (0, 250, 500, or 625 mg/kg), 10 (0, 500, 625, or 750 mg/kg), or 11 (0, 500, 750, or 1000 mg/kg) and from GD 6 to GD 17 (0, 50, 125, or 250 mg/kg a day) in the multiple dose study to SD rats. Animals were killed on GD 21, and fetuses were examined viscerally. RESULTS: The literature evaluation suggested that NSAIDs induce ventricular septal defects (VSDs) and midline defects (MDs) in rats and diaphragmatic hernia (DH), MDs, and VSDs in rabbits (Cook JC et al., 2003); hence, the present study focused on these malformations, even though ASA induces several other low-incidence malformations. In single dose studies, DH, MD, and VSD were induced on GDs 9 and 10. VSD also was noted following treatment on GD 11. In contrast, DH and MD were noted in the multiple dose study design only in the high-dose group, and VSD was noted across all dose groups. CONCLUSIONS: High concordance in major developmental anomalies between Wistar and SD rats were noted with the exception of VSD in the SD rats and hydrocephalus in the Wistar rats. Variations and malformations were similar when ASA was administered as a single dose or during the period of organogenesis (GDs 6 to 17). It was also evident that, by titrating the dose to achieve a maximum tolerated dose, malformations that normally occur at low incidence, as reported from previous single dose studies, could also be induced with ASA given at multiple doses.","[{'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'acetylsalicylic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 51, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'developmental anomalies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'Aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'acetylsalicylic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 336, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 358, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'developmental anomalies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 423, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 776, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'gastrointestinal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 965, 'end': 990, 'mesh': 'D005767'}, {'text': 'malformations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1032, 'end': 1045, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1054, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1105, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'ventricular septal defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'VSDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1502, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'midline defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1527, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'MDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1529, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'diaphragmatic hernia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1546, 'end': 1566, 'mesh': 'D065630'}, {'text': 'DH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'D065630'}, {'text': 'MDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'VSDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1582, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'malformations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1664, 'end': 1677, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1691, 'end': 1694, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'malformations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1731, 'end': 1744, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'DH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1770, 'end': 1772, 'mesh': 'D065630'}, {'text': 'MD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1774, 'end': 1776, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'VSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1782, 'end': 1785, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'VSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1816, 'end': 1819, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'DH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1878, 'end': 1880, 'mesh': 'D065630'}, {'text': 'MD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1885, 'end': 1887, 'mesh': 'D009436'}, {'text': 'VSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1966, 'end': 1969, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'developmental anomalies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2043, 'end': 2066, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'VSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2127, 'end': 2130, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'hydrocephalus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2150, 'end': 2163, 'mesh': 'D006849'}, {'text': 'malformations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2199, 'end': 2212, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2231, 'end': 2234, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'malformations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2407, 'end': 2420, 'mesh': 'D000014'}, {'text': 'ASA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2533, 'end': 2536, 'mesh': 'D001241'}]" +938,11858397,Torsade de pointes induced by metoclopramide in an elderly woman with preexisting complete left bundle branch block.,"There is a growing list of drugs implicated in acquired long QT syndrome and torsade de pointes. However, the torsadogenic potential of metoclopramide, a commonly used antiemetic and prokinetic drug, has not been reported in the literature, despite its chemical similarity to procainamide. We report on a 92-year-old woman with preexisting complete left bundle branch block who developed torsade de pointes after intravenous and oral administration of metoclopramide. This patient also developed torsade de pointes when cisapride and erythromycin were given simultaneously. These two episodes were suppressed successfully after discontinuing the offending drugs and administering class IB drugs. This is the first documentation that metoclopramide provokes torsade de pointes clinically. Metoclopramide should be used cautiously in patients with a risk of torsade de pointes.","[{'text': 'Torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'metoclopramide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D008787'}, {'text': 'left bundle branch block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D002037'}, {'text': 'long QT syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 173, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 194, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'metoclopramide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D008787'}, {'text': 'procainamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 393, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D011342'}, {'text': 'left bundle branch block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 466, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D002037'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'metoclopramide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 583, 'mesh': 'D008787'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 613, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'cisapride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 637, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D020117'}, {'text': 'erythromycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 651, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D004917'}, {'text': 'metoclopramide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 850, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'D008787'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 874, 'end': 892, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'Metoclopramide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 905, 'end': 919, 'mesh': 'D008787'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 973, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D016171'}]" +939,11009181,Apomorphine: an underutilized therapy for Parkinson's disease.,"Apomorphine was the first dopaminergic drug ever used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease. While powerful antiparkinsonian effects had been observed as early as 1951, the potential of treating fluctuating Parkinson's disease by subcutaneous administration of apomorphine has only recently become the subject of systematic study. A number of small scale clinical trials have unequivocally shown that intermittent subcutaneous apomorphine injections produce antiparkinsonian benefit close if not identical to that seen with levodopa and that apomorphine rescue injections can reliably revert off-periods even in patients with complex on-off motor swings. Continuous subcutaneous apomorphine infusions can reduce daily off-time by more than 50% in this group of patients, which appears to be a stronger effect than that generally seen with add-on therapy with oral dopamine agonists or COMT inhibitors. Extended follow-up studies of up to 8 years have demonstrated long-term persistence of apomorphine efficacy. In addition, there is convincing clinical evidence that monotherapy with continuous subcutaneous apomorphine infusions is associated with marked reductions of preexisting levodopa-induced dyskinesias. The main side effects of subcutaneous apomorphine treatment are related to cutaneous tolerability problems, whereas sedation and psychiatric complications play a lesser role. Given the marked degree of efficacy of subcutaneous apomorphine treatment in fluctuating Parkinson's disease, this approach seems to deserve more widespread clinical use.","[{'text': 'Apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'Apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 273, 'end': 292, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 493, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 590, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 608, 'end': 619, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 745, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 930, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1174, 'end': 1185, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1248, 'end': 1256, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1265, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1316, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'psychiatric', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1407, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1505, 'end': 1516, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1542, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'D010300'}]" +940,8988571,Fatal excited delirium following cocaine use: epidemiologic findings provide new evidence for mechanisms of cocaine toxicity.,"We describe an outbreak of deaths from cocaine-induced excited delirium (EDDs) in Dade County, Florida between 1979 and 1990. From a registry of all cocaine-related deaths in Dade County, Florida, from 1969-1990, 58 EDDs were compared with 125 victims of accidental cocaine overdose without excited delirium. Compared with controls, EDDs were more frequently black, male, and younger. They were less likely to have a low body mass index, and more likely to have died in police custody, to have received medical treatment immediately before death, to have survived for a longer period, to have developed hyperthermia, and to have died in summer months. EDDs had concentrations of cocaine and benzoylecgonine in autopsy blood that were similar to those for controls. The epidemiologic findings are most consistent with the hypothesis that chronic cocaine use disrupts dopaminergic function and, when coupled with recent cocaine use, may precipitate agitation, delirium, aberrant thermoregulation, rhabdomyolysis, and sudden death.","[{'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 14, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 108, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 116, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 165, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 189, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'EDDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'EDDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 342, 'end': 346, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 392, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 400, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 425, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'EDDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 459, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'hyperthermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 729, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'EDDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 778, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 805, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'benzoylecgonine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 817, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'C005618'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 971, 'end': 978, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1051, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1084, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'rhabdomyolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1121, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D012206'}, {'text': 'sudden death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1153, 'mesh': 'D003645'}]" +941,6615052,"Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, thrombosis, and hemorrhage.","Sixty-two patients with a heparin-induced thrombocytopenia are reported.

We investigated changes in urinary NGF and PGs in women with OAB. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study groups included 65 women with OAB and 20 without bladder symptoms who served as controls. Evaluation included patient history, urinalysis, a voiding diary and urodynamic studies. Urine samples were collected. NGF, PGE2, PGF2alpha and PGI2 were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and compared between the groups. In addition, correlations between urinary NGF and PG, and urodynamic parameters in patients with OAB were examined. RESULTS: Urinary NGF, PGE2 and PGF2alpha were significantly increased in patients with OAB compared with controls (p <0.05). However, urinary PGI2 was not different between controls and patients with OAB. In patients with OAB urinary PGE2 positively correlated with volume at first desire to void and maximum cystometric capacity (p <0.05). Urinary NGF, PGF2alpha and PGI2 did not correlate with urodynamic parameters in patients with OAB. CONCLUSIONS: NGF and PGs have important roles in the development of OAB symptoms in female patients. Urinary levels of these factors may be used as markers to evaluate OAB symptoms.","[{'text': 'prostaglandins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'overactive bladder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 76, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'PGs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 113, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'PGs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 277, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 292, 'end': 295, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 360, 'end': 363, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 544, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PGF2alpha', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 550, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'D015237'}, {'text': 'PGI2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 564, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D011464'}, {'text': 'PG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 706, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 753, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 798, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PGF2alpha', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 803, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D015237'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 859, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'PGI2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 914, 'end': 918, 'mesh': 'D011464'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 994, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1010, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PGF2alpha', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1126, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D015237'}, {'text': 'PGI2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1140, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D011464'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'PGs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1236, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1280, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D053201'}, {'text': 'OAB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1380, 'end': 1383, 'mesh': 'D053201'}]" +946,15686794,Acute low back pain during intravenous administration of amiodarone: a report of two cases.,"Amiodarone represents an effective antiarrhythmic drug for cardioversion of recent-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) and maintenance of sinus rhythm.

The pathogenesis of this myalgia is still unclear; inflammation has been suggested but without convincing evidence. We designed the present study to investigate whether an inflammatory reaction contributes to this myalgia. The incidence and severity of succinylcholine-associated myalgia was determined in 64 patients pretreated with saline or dexamethasone before succinylcholine (n = 32 for each). Incidence and severity of myalgia did not differ significantly between the two groups: 15 patients in the dexamethasone group complained of myalgia compared with 18 patients in the saline group, and severe myalgia was reported by five patients and three patients, respectively (not significant). At 48 h after surgery, 12 patients in both groups still suffered from myalgia (not significant). In addition, interleukin-6 (IL-6) as an early marker of inflammation was assessed in a subgroup of 10 patients pretreated with saline. We found an increase of IL-6 for only three patients, but only one patient reported myalgia; no relationship between myalgia and the increase of IL-6 was found. In conclusion, there is no evidence for an inflammatory origin of succinylcholine-associated myalgia. IMPLICATIONS: Administration of dexamethasone before succinylcholine was not effective in decreasing the incidence or the severity of succinylcholine-induced postoperative myalgia. Furthermore, there was no significant relationship between postoperative myalgia and time course of interleukin-6 concentrations, a marker of inflammation. Pretreatment with dexamethasone is not justified to prevent postoperative myalgia after succinylcholine.","[{'text': 'Postoperative myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 137, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'postoperative myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 189, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 215, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 378, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 417, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 444, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 508, 'end': 521, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 529, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 590, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 704, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 770, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 930, 'end': 937, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1013, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1334, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1346, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1387, 'end': 1400, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1408, 'end': 1423, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1504, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'postoperative myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1513, 'end': 1534, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'postoperative myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1595, 'end': 1616, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1678, 'end': 1690, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1710, 'end': 1723, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'postoperative myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1752, 'end': 1773, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1795, 'mesh': 'D013390'}]" +948,12691807,Levodopa-induced oromandibular dystonia in progressive supranuclear palsy.,"Levodopa-induced dyskinesias have been reported in Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy.

Operations lasting up to 2h could be performed in the absence of sophisticated equipment such as pulse oximeters or ventilators in patients on spontaneous ventilation breathing air/oxygen only. After premedication with diazepam, glycopyrrolate and local anaesthesia, and induction with standard doses of ketamine, a maintenance dose of 10-20 microg/kg/min of ketamine proved safe and effective. Emphasis was placed on bedside clinical monitoring, relying heavily on the heart rate. Diazepam, unless contraindicated or risky, remains the only necessary complementary drug to ketamine as it buffers its cardiovascular response and decreases the duration and intensity of operative and postoperative hallucinations. Local anaesthetic blocks were useful in decreasing the requirement for postoperative analgesia. An antisialogue was usually unnecessary in operations lasting up to 2 h, glycopyrrolate being the best choice for its lowest psychotropic and chronotropic effects, especially in a hot climate. Experience in war/tropical settings suggests this technique could be useful in civilian contexts such as outdoor life-saving emergency surgery or in mass casualties where, e.g. amputation and rapid extrication were required.","[{'text': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 130, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 570, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 608, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'glycopyrrolate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 618, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D006024'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 693, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 748, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'Diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 871, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'hallucinations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D006212'}, {'text': 'analgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1187, 'end': 1196, 'mesh': 'D000699'}, {'text': 'glycopyrrolate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1285, 'mesh': 'D006024'}]" +951,11860495,Steroid structure and pharmacological properties determine the anti-amnesic effects of pregnenolone sulphate in the passive avoidance task in rats.,"Pregnenolone sulphate (PREGS) has generated interest as one of the most potent memory-enhancing neurosteroids to be examined in rodent learning studies, with particular importance in the ageing process. The mechanism by which this endogenous steroid enhances memory formation is hypothesized to involve actions on glutamatergic and GABAergic systems. This hypothesis stems from findings that PREGS is a potent positive modulator of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) and a negative modulator of gamma-aminobutyric acid(A) receptors (GABA(A)Rs). Moreover, PREGS is able to reverse the amnesic-like effects of NMDAR and GABA(A)R ligands. To investigate this hypothesis, the present study in rats examined the memory-altering abilities of structural analogs of PREGS, which differ in their modulation of NMDAR and/or GABA(A)R function. The analogs tested were: 11-ketopregnenolone sulphate (an agent that is inactive at GABA(A)Rs and NMDARs), epipregnanolone ([3beta-hydroxy-5beta-pregnan-20-one] sulphate, an inhibitor of both GABA(A)Rs and NMDARs), and a newly synthesized (-) PREGS enantiomer (which is identical to PREGS in effects on GABA(A)Rs and NMDARs). The memory-enhancing effects of PREGS and its analogs were tested in the passive avoidance task using the model of scopolamine-induced amnesia. Both PREGS and its (-) enantiomer blocked the effects of scopolamine. The results show that, unlike PREGS, 11-ketopregnenolone sulphate and epipregnanolone sulphate failed to block the effect of scopolamine, suggesting that altering the modulation of NMDA receptors diminishes the memory-enhancing effects of PREGS. Moreover, enantioselectivity was demonstrated by the ability of natural PREGS to be an order of magnitude more effective than its synthetic enantiomer in reversing scopolamine-induced amnesia. These results identify a novel neuropharmacological site for the modulation of memory processes by neuroactive steroids.","[{'text': 'Steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'amnesic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 68, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'pregnenolone sulphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'Pregnenolone sulphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 148, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 390, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 540, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-d-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'gamma-aminobutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 686, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 708, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'amnesic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 737, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 911, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 967, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': '11-ketopregnenolone sulphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1070, 'end': 1074, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'epipregnanolone ([3beta-hydroxy-5beta-pregnan-20-one] sulphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1093, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1234, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1269, 'end': 1274, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1427, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1447, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1466, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1513, 'end': 1524, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1556, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': '11-ketopregnenolone sulphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1591, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'epipregnanolone sulphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1620, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1651, 'end': 1662, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1707, 'end': 1711, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1765, 'end': 1770, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'PREGS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1844, 'end': 1849, 'mesh': 'C018370'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1936, 'end': 1947, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1956, 'end': 1963, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2076, 'end': 2084, 'mesh': 'D013256'}]" +952,11752998,Preliminary efficacy assessment of intrathecal injection of an American formulation of adenosine in humans.,"BACKGROUND: Preclinical studies of intrathecal adenosine suggest it may be effective in the treatment of acute and chronic pain in humans, and preliminary studies in volunteers and patients with a Swedish formulation of adenosine suggests it may be effective in hypersensitivity states but not with acute noxious stimulation. The purpose of this study was to screen for efficacy of a different formulation of adenosine marketed in the US, using both acute noxious stimulation and capsaicin-evoked mechanical hypersensitivity. METHODS: Following Food and Drug Administration and institutional review board approval and written informed consent, 65 volunteers were studied in two trials: an open-label, dose-escalating trial with intrathecal adenosine doses of 0.25-2.0 mg and a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of adenosine, 2 mg. Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained for pharmacokinetic analysis, and pain ratings in response to acute heat stimuli and areas of mechanical hyperalgesia and allodynia after intradermal capsaicin injection were determined. RESULTS: Adenosine produced no effect on pain report to acute noxious thermal or chemical stimulation but reduced mechanical hyperalgesia and allodynia from intradermal capsaicin injection for at least 24 h. In contrast, residence time of adenosine in cerebrospinal fluid was short (< 4 h). CONCLUSIONS: These results show selective inhibition by intrathecal adenosine of hypersensitivity, presumed to reflect central sensitization in humans after peripheral capsaicin injection. The long-lasting effect is consistent with that observed in preliminary reports of patients with chronic neuropathic pain and is not due to prolonged residence of adenosine in cerebrospinal fluid.","[{'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 155, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 328, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 370, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 517, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 588, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 616, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 848, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 927, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1015, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'mechanical hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1136, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'Adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1209, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'mechanical hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1306, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1333, 'end': 1342, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1403, 'end': 1412, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1523, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D000241'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1623, 'end': 1632, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1765, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'adenosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1807, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D000241'}]" +953,10354657,Effect of lithium maintenance therapy on thyroid and parathyroid function.,"OBJECTIVES: To assess changes induced by lithium maintenance therapy on the incidence of thyroid, parathyroid and ion alterations. These were evaluated with respect to the duration of lithium therapy, age, sex, and family history (whether or not the patient had a first-degree relative with thyroid disease). DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: Affective Disorders Clinic at St. Mary's Hospital, Montreal. PATIENTS: One hundred and one patients (28 men and 73 women) with bipolar disorder receiving lithium maintenance therapy ranging from 1 year's to 32 years' duration. The control group consisted of 82 patients with no psychiatric or endocrinological diagnoses from the hospital's out-patient clinics. OUTCOME MEASURES: Laboratory analyses of calcium, magnesium and thyroid-stimulating hormone levels performed before beginning lithium therapy and at biannual follow-up. RESULTS: Hypothyroidism developed in 40 patients, excluding 8 patients who were hypothyroid at baseline. All patients having first-degree relatives affected by thyroid illness had accelerated onset of hypothyroidism (3.7 years after onset of lithium therapy) compared with patients without a family history (8.6 years after onset of lithium therapy). Women over 60 years of age were more often affected by hypothyroidism than women under 60 years of age (34.6% versus 31.9%). Magnesium levels in patients on lithium treatment were unchanged from baseline levels. After lithium treatment, calcium levels were higher than either baseline levels or control levels. Thus, lithium treatment counteracted the decrease in plasma calcium levels associated with aging. CONCLUSIONS: Familial thyroid illness is a risk factor for hypothyroidism and hypercalcemia during lithium therapy.","[{'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 116, 'end': 123, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 259, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'thyroid disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 366, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D013959'}, {'text': 'bipolar disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 547, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 574, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'psychiatric', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 698, 'end': 709, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 822, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'magnesium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 831, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D008274'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Hypothyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 959, 'end': 973, 'mesh': 'D007037'}, {'text': 'hypothyroid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'D007037'}, {'text': 'thyroid illness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1125, 'mesh': 'D013959'}, {'text': 'hypothyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1165, 'mesh': 'D007037'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1192, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1283, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'hypothyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1370, 'mesh': 'D007037'}, {'text': 'Magnesium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1426, 'end': 1435, 'mesh': 'D008274'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1458, 'end': 1465, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1519, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1538, 'end': 1545, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1618, 'end': 1625, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1672, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'thyroid illness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1732, 'end': 1747, 'mesh': 'D013959'}, {'text': 'hypothyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1769, 'end': 1783, 'mesh': 'D007037'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1788, 'end': 1801, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1809, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D008094'}]" +954,10328196,Systemic toxicity following administration of sirolimus (formerly rapamycin) for psoriasis: association of capillary leak syndrome with apoptosis of lesional lymphocytes.,"BACKGROUND: Sirolimus (formerly rapamycin) is an immunosuppressive agent that interferes with T-cell activation. After 2 individuals with psoriasis developed a capillary leak syndrome following treatment with oral sirolimus lesional skin cells and activated peripheral blood cells were analyzed for induction of apoptosis. OBSERVATIONS: A keratome skin specimen from 1 patient with sirolimus-induced capillary leak syndrome had a 2.3-fold increase in percentage of apoptotic cells (to 48%) compared with an unaffected sirolimus-treated patient with psoriasis (21%). Activated peripheral blood T cells from patients with psoriasis tended to exhibit greater spontaneous or dexamethasone-induced apoptosis than did normal T cells, particularly in the presence of sirolimus. CONCLUSIONS: Severe adverse effects of sirolimus include fever, anemia, and capillary leak syndrome. These symptoms may be the result of drug-induced apoptosis of lesional leukocytes, especially activated T lymphocytes, and possibly release of inflammatory mediators. Because patients with severe psoriasis may develop capillary leak from various systemic therapies, clinical monitoring is advisable for patients with inflammatory diseases who are treated with immune modulators.","[{'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 9, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 46, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 66, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'psoriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D011565'}, {'text': 'capillary leak syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 107, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D019559'}, {'text': 'Sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 183, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'rapamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 203, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'psoriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 309, 'end': 318, 'mesh': 'D011565'}, {'text': 'capillary leak syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 331, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D019559'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 385, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 553, 'end': 562, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'capillary leak syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 571, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D019559'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 689, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'psoriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 720, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D011565'}, {'text': 'psoriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 791, 'end': 800, 'mesh': 'D011565'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 842, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 931, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 981, 'end': 990, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'fever', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 999, 'end': 1004, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'capillary leak syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1041, 'mesh': 'D019559'}, {'text': 'psoriasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1239, 'end': 1248, 'mesh': 'D011565'}, {'text': 'capillary leak', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'D019559'}, {'text': 'inflammatory diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1360, 'end': 1381, 'mesh': 'D007249'}]" +955,9630698,Contribution of the glycine site of NMDA receptors in rostral and intermediate-caudal parts of the striatum to the regulation of muscle tone in rats.,"The aim of the present study was to assess the contribution of the glycine site of NMDA receptors in the striatum to the regulation of muscle tone. Muscle tone was examined using a combined mechanoand electromyographic method, which measured simultaneously the muscle resistance (MMG) of the rat's hind foot to passive extension and flexion in the ankle joint and the electromyographic activity (EMG) of the antagonistic muscles of that joint: gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior. Muscle rigidity was induced by haloperidol (2.5 mg/kg i.p.). 5,7-dichlorokynurenic acid (5,7-DCKA), a selective glycine site antagonist, injected in doses of 2.5 and 4.5 microg/0.5 microl bilaterally, into the rostral region of the striatum, decreased both the haloperidol-induced muscle rigidity (MMG) and the enhanced electromyographic activity (EMG). 5,7-DCKA injected bilaterally in a dose of 4.5 microg/0.5 microl into the intermediate-caudal region of the striatum of rats not pretreated with haloperidol had no effect on the muscle tone. The present results suggest that blockade of the glycine site of NMDA receptors in the rostral part of the striatum may be mainly responsible for the antiparkinsonian action of this drug.","[{'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 217, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 233, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'Muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 631, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 662, 'end': 673, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': '5,7-dichlorokynurenic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 718, 'mesh': 'C066192'}, {'text': '5,7-DCKA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 720, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'C066192'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 892, 'end': 903, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'muscle rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 912, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': '5,7-DCKA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 985, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'C066192'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1130, 'end': 1141, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'glycine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1225, 'end': 1232, 'mesh': 'D005998'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1241, 'end': 1245, 'mesh': 'D016202'}]" +956,8480959,Efficacy and tolerability of lovastatin in 3390 women with moderate hypercholesterolemia.,"OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of lovastatin in women with moderate hypercholesterolemia. DESIGN: The Expanded Clinical Evaluation of Lovastatin (EXCEL) Study, a multicenter, double-blind, diet- and placebo-controlled trial, in which participants were randomly assigned to receive placebo or lovastatin at doses of 20 or 40 mg once daily, or 20 or 40 mg twice daily for 48 weeks. SETTING: Ambulatory patients recruited by 362 participating centers throughout the United States. PATIENTS: Women (n = 3390) from the total cohort of 8245 volunteers. MEASUREMENTS: Plasma total, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides; and laboratory and clinical evidence of adverse events monitored periodically throughout the study. RESULTS: Among women, lovastatin (20 to 80 mg/d) produced sustained (12- to 48-week), dose-related changes (P < 0.001): decreases in LDL cholesterol (24% to 40%) and triglycerides (9% to 18%), and increases in HDL cholesterol (6.7% to 8.6%). Depending on the dose, from 82% to 95% of lovastatin-treated women achieved the National Cholesterol Education Program goal of LDL cholesterol levels less than 4.14 mmol/L (160 mg/dL), and 40% to 87% achieved the goal of 3.36 mmol/L (130 mg/dL). Successive transaminase elevations greater than three times the upper limit of normal occurred in 0.1% of women and were dose dependent above the 20-mg dose.

MESNA was given orally on the days of treatment with IF in 3 doses of 840 mg/m2, each administered at 0 hr (= injection of IF), 4 hr and 8 hr p.i. Out of a total of 88 courses of this treatment we observed 10 episodes of asymptomatic microscopic haematuria and no episodes of gross haematuria. In this group of 45 patients under protection with MESNA there were 5 complete remissions and 9 partial remissions (total 31%). A further group of 25 patients under polychemotherapy with IF were treated by conventional prophylactic measures (raised fluid intake and forced diuresis). In this group there were 1 complete and 5 partial remissions (total 24%), but nearly all patients developed either gross haematuria and/or symptoms of bladder irritation (cystitis and pollakisuria). There were no appreciable differences between the MESNA series and the conventional prophylaxis series with respect to either haematological or systemic toxicity of the cytostatic treatment. Our results support the view that MESNA, given orally in conjunction with combined cytostatic regimens which include IF, simplifies the treatment and provides optimum protection for the urinary epithelium.

Intense generalized muscle rigidity is an undesirable side effect of potent opiate agonists. Although the neurochemistry of opiate-induced rigidity has yet to be fully elucidated, recent work suggests a role for a central adrenergic mechanism. In the present study, the authors determined if treatment with D-MED prevents the muscle rigidity caused by high-dose alfentanil anesthesia in the rat. Animals (n = 42) were treated intraperitoneally with one of the following six regimens: 1) L-MED (the inactive L-isomer of medetomidine), 30 micrograms/kg; 2) D-MED, 10 micrograms/kg; 3) D-MED, 30 micrograms/kg; 4) D-MED [30 micrograms/kg] and the central-acting alpha-2 antagonist, idazoxan [10 mg/kg]; 5) D-MED [30 micrograms/kg] and the peripheral-acting alpha-2 antagonist DG-5128 [10 mg/kg], or; 6) saline. Baseline electromyographic activity was recorded from the gastrocnemius muscle before and after drug treatment. Each rat was then injected with alfentanil (ALF, 0.5 mg/kg sc). ALF injection resulted in a marked increase in hindlimb EMG activity in the L-MED treatment group which was indistinguishable from that seen in animals treated with saline. In contrast, D-MED prevented alfentanil-induced muscle rigidity in a dose-dependent fashion. The small EMG values obtained in the high-dose D-MED group were comparable with those recorded in earlier studies from control animals not given any opiate.

Under isoflurane anesthesia, the MCA of 14 spontaneously hypertensive rats was occluded. In the control group (n = 7), the mean arterial pressure (MAP) was not manipulated. In the hypertensive group (n = 7), the MAP was elevated by 25-30 mm Hg beginning 2 h after MCAO. Four hours after MCAO, the rats were killed and the brains harvested. The brains were sectioned along coronal planes spanning the distribution of ischemia produced by MCAO. Specific gravity (SG) was determined in the subcortex and in two sites in the cortex (core and periphery of the ischemic territory). The extent of neuronal injury was determined by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium staining. In the ischemic core, there was no difference in SG in the subcortex and cortex in the two groups. In the periphery of the ischemic territory, SG in the cortex was greater (less edema accumulation) in the hypertensive group (1.041 +/- 0.001 vs 1.039 +/- 0.001, P less than 0.05). The area of histochemical injury (as a percent of the cross-sectional area of the hemisphere) was less in the hypertensive group (33 +/- 3% vs 21 +/- 2%, P less than 0.05). The data indicate that phenylephrine-induced hypertension instituted 2 h after MCAO does not aggravate edema in the ischemic core, that it improves edema in the periphery of the ischemic territory, and that it reduces the area of histochemical neuronal dysfunction.","[{'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'cerebral ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D002545'}, {'text': 'brain edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 78, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 113, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'middle cerebral artery occlusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 165, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D020244'}, {'text': 'MCAO', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 199, 'end': 203, 'mesh': 'D020244'}, {'text': 'brain edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 208, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'isoflurane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D007530'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 325, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 448, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'MCAO', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 532, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D020244'}, {'text': 'MCAO', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 555, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'D020244'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 684, 'end': 692, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'MCAO', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 705, 'end': 709, 'mesh': 'D020244'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 823, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'neuronal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 858, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': '2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 892, 'end': 918, 'mesh': 'C009591'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 936, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1052, 'end': 1060, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1112, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1331, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'phenylephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1427, 'end': 1439, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'MCAO', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1465, 'mesh': 'D020244'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1485, 'end': 1490, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1535, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1560, 'end': 1568, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'neuronal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1626, 'end': 1646, 'mesh': 'D009410'}]" +968,1595783,Amiodarone pulmonary toxicity.,"Amiodarone is an effective antiarrhythmic agent whose utility is limited by many side-effects, the most problematic being pneumonitis.

The clinical and radiographic features of amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity are characteristic but nonspecific. The diagnosis depends on exclusion of other entities, such as heart failure, infection, and malignancy. While withdrawal of amiodarone leads to clinical improvement in majority of cases, this is not always possible or advisable.

Chlorthalidone (50 mg daily) was given for 14 days. Six patients received a normal-sodium diet and four a low-sodium (17 mmol/day) diet. All patients had a normal initial total body potassium (40K). The electrolyte balances, weight, bromide space, plasma renin activity, and aldosterone secretion rate were measured. In both groups a potassium deficit developed, with proportionally larger losses from the extracellular than from the intracellular compartment. In the normal-sodium group the highest mean potassium deficit was 176 mmol on day 9, after which some potassium was regained; in the low-sodium group the highest deficit was 276 mmol on day 13. The normal-sodium group showed an immediate but temporary rise of the renin and aldosterone levels; in the low-sodium group renin and aldosterone increased more slowly but remained elevated. It is concluded that dietary sodium restriction increases diuretic-induced potassium loss, presumably by an increased activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, while sodium delivery to the distal renal tubules remains sufficiently high to allow increased potassium secretion.","[{'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 8, 'end': 17, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'hypokalaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'chlorthalidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 47, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D002752'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 190, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'hypokalaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 224, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 356, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypokalaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'Chlorthalidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 447, 'mesh': 'D002752'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 543, 'end': 549, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 615, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 708, 'end': 719, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 767, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 908, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 938, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 996, 'end': 1005, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1199, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1222, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1308, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1419, 'end': 1430, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'aldosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1431, 'end': 1442, 'mesh': 'D000450'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1457, 'end': 1463, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1546, 'end': 1555, 'mesh': 'D011188'}]" +971,19893084,Dynamic response of blood vessel in acute renal failure.,"In this study we postulated that during acute renal failure induced by gentamicin the transient or dynamic response of blood vessels could be affected, and that antioxidants can prevent the changes in dynamic responses of blood vessels.

Our results confirm the alteration in dynamic response of blood vessels during the change of pressure in gentamicin-treated animals. The beneficial effects of vitamin C administration to gentamicin-treated animals are also confirmed through: lower level of blood urea and creatinine and higher level of potassium. The pressure dynamic responses of isolated blood vessels show a faster pressure change in gentamicin-treated animals (8.07 +/- 1.7 s vs. 5.64 +/- 0.18 s). Vitamin C administration induced slowdown of pressure change back to the control values.

Parturients with normal volume status, heart valves and pulmonary vasculature most often respond to this hypotension with a compensatory increase in heart rate and stroke volume. Oxytocin-induced hypotension at cesarean delivery may be incorrectly attributed to blood loss. Pulse power analysis (also called ""pulse contour analysis"") of an arterial pressure wave form allows continuous evaluation of systemic vascular resistance and cardiac output in real time, thereby elucidating the causative factors behind changes in blood pressure. Pulse power analysis was conducted in six cases of cesarean delivery performed under neuraxial anesthesia. Hypotension in response to oxytocin was associated with a decrease in systemic vascular resistance and a compensatory increase in stroke volume, heart rate and cardiac output. Pulse power analysis may be helpful in determining the etiology of and treating hypotension during cesarean delivery under neuraxial anesthesia.","[{'text': 'oxytocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D010121'}, {'text': 'Oxytocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 139, 'mesh': 'D010121'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 212, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 275, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 509, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 568, 'end': 574, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'Oxytocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D010121'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 600, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'blood loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 666, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D006473'}, {'text': 'Hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1060, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'oxytocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D010121'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1179, 'end': 1185, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1305, 'end': 1316, 'mesh': 'D007022'}]" +973,18483878,Exaggerated expression of inflammatory mediators in vasoactive intestinal polypeptide knockout (VIP-/-) mice with cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced cystitis.,"Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) is an immunomodulatory neuropeptide distributed in micturition pathways. VIP(-/-) mice exhibit altered bladder function and neurochemical properties in micturition pathways after cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced cystitis. Given VIP's role as an anti-inflammatory mediator, we hypothesized that VIP(-/-) mice would exhibit enhanced inflammatory mediator expression after cystitis. A mouse inflammatory cytokine and receptor RT2 profiler array was used to determine regulated transcripts in the urinary bladder of wild type (WT) and VIP(-/-) mice with or without CYP-induced cystitis (150 mg/kg; i.p.; 48 h). Four binary comparisons were made: WT control versus CYP treatment (48 h), VIP(-/-) control versus CYP treatment (48 h), WT control versus VIP(-/-) control, and WT with CYP treatment (48 h) versus VIP(-/-) with CYP treatment (48 h). The genes presented represent (1) greater than 1.5-fold change in either direction and (2) the p value is less than 0.05 for the comparison being made. Several regulated genes were validated using enzyme-linked immunoassays including IL-1beta and CXCL1. CYP treatment significantly (p < or = 0.001) increased expression of CXCL1 and IL-1beta in the urinary bladder of WT and VIP(-/-) mice, but expression in VIP(-/-) mice with CYP treatment was significantly (p < or = 0.001) greater (4.2- to 13-fold increase) than that observed in WT urinary bladder (3.6- to 5-fold increase). The data suggest that in VIP(-/-) mice with bladder inflammation, inflammatory mediators are increased above that observed in WT with CYP. This shift in balance may contribute to increased bladder dysfunction in VIP(-/-) mice with bladder inflammation and altered neurochemical expression in micturition pathways.","[{'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 114, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 145, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 374, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 392, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 405, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 563, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 766, 'end': 774, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 853, 'end': 856, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 899, 'end': 902, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 969, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1460, 'end': 1463, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bladder inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1656, 'end': 1676, 'mesh': 'D001745'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1746, 'end': 1749, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bladder dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1801, 'end': 1820, 'mesh': 'D001745'}, {'text': 'bladder inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1843, 'end': 1863, 'mesh': 'D001745'}]" +974,17923537,Intraocular pressure in patients with uveitis treated with fluocinolone acetonide implants.,"OBJECTIVE: To report the incidence and management of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with uveitis treated with the fluocinolone acetonide (FA) intravitreal implant. DESIGN: Pooled data from 3 multicenter, double-masked, randomized, controlled, phase 2b/3 clinical trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of the 0.59-mg or 2.1-mg FA intravitreal implant or standard therapy were analyzed. RESULTS: During the 3-year follow-up, 71.0% of implanted eyes had an IOP increase of 10 mm Hg or more than baseline and 55.1%, 24.7%, and 6.2% of eyes reached an IOP of 30 mm Hg or more, 40 mm Hg or more, and 50 mm Hg or more, respectively. Topical IOP-lowering medication was administered in 74.8% of implanted eyes, and IOP-lowering surgeries, most of which were trabeculectomies (76.2%), were performed on 36.6% of implanted eyes. Intraocular pressure-lowering surgeries were considered a success (postoperative IOP of 6-21 mm Hg with or without additional IOP-lowering medication) in 85.1% of eyes at 1 year. The rate of hypotony (IOP 0.05). The elderly group had a significantly greater pilocarpine-induced net decrease in pupil size 85, 125, 165 and 215 minutes after administration, compared with the young group (p < 0.05). Compared with the young group, the elderly group had greater scopolamine-induced impairment in word recall 60, 90 and 120 minutes after administration (p < 0.05).

METHOD: All subjects received placebo on Day 1 and haloperidol 2 mg on Days 2 and 25. From Days 9 to 25, subjects were randomly assigned to either sertraline (12 subjects) or placebo (12 subjects); the sertraline dose was titrated from 50 to 200 mg/day from Days 9 to 16, and remained at 200 mg/day for the final 10 days of the drug administration period. Cognitive function testing was performed before dosing and over a 24-hour period after dosing on Days 1, 2, and 25. RESULTS: Impairment of cognitive function was observed 6 to 8 hours after administration of haloperidol on Day 2 but was not evident 23 hours after dosing. When single-dose haloperidol was given again 25 days later, greater impairment with earlier onset was noted in several tests in both treatment groups, suggesting enhancement of this effect. There was no indication that sertraline exacerbated the impairment produced by haloperidol since an equivalent effect also occurred in the placebo group. Three subjects (2 on sertraline and 1 on placebo) withdrew from the study because of side effects. Ten subjects in each group reported side effects related to treatment. The side effect profiles of sertraline and of placebo were similar.

Peripheral venous blood samples were withdrawn from the femoral vein four times (once every 5 min) before ischemia (0 time) and 5, 15, and 30 min after ischemia. Plasma extracts were analyzed by a highly sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the direct determination of malondialdehyde, oxypurines, and nucleosides. During ischemia, a time-dependent increase of plasma oxypurines and nucleosides was observed. Plasma malondialdehyde, which was present in minimal amount at zero time (0.058 mumol/liter plasma; SD 0.015), increased after 5 min of ischemia, resulting in a fivefold increase after 30 min of carotid occlusion (0.298 mumol/liter plasma; SD 0.078). Increased plasma malondialdehyde was also recorded in two other groups of animals subjected to the same experimental model, one receiving 20 mg/kg b.w. of the cyclooxygenase inhibitor acetylsalicylate intravenously immediately before ischemia, the other receiving 650 micrograms/kg b.w. of the hypotensive drug nitroprusside at a flow rate of 103 microliters/min intravenously during ischemia, although in this latter group malondialdehyde was significantly higher. The present data indicate that the determination of malondialdehyde, oxypurines, and nucleosides in peripheral blood, may be used to monitor the metabolic alterations of tissues occurring during ischemic phenomena.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'oxypurines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 53, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'nucleosides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D009705'}, {'text': 'cerebral ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D002545'}, {'text': 'cerebral ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 130, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D002545'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 347, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 385, 'end': 393, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 526, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'oxypurines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 543, 'end': 553, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'nucleosides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 570, 'mesh': 'D009705'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 579, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'oxypurines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 625, 'end': 635, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'nucleosides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 640, 'end': 651, 'mesh': 'D009705'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 673, 'end': 688, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 802, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 934, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'acetylsalicylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'hypotensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1222, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1228, 'end': 1241, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1341, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1435, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'oxypurines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'nucleosides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1468, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'D009705'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1578, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D007511'}]" +989,7650771,Cholinergic toxicity resulting from ocular instillation of echothiophate iodide eye drops.,"A patient developed a severe cholinergic syndrome from the use of echothiophate iodide ophthalmic drops, presented with profound muscle weakness and was initially given the diagnosis of myasthenia gravis.

Renal catecholamine stores and stimulus-induced overflow in the vehicle-treated group consisted of norepinephrine only. However, epinephrine treatment resulted in the incorporation of epinephrine into renal catecholamine stores such that approximately 40% of the catecholamine present was epinephrine while the norepinephrine content was reduced by a similar degree. Total tissue catecholamine content of the kidney on a molar basis was unchanged. Stimulus-induced fractional overflow of neurotransmitter from the epinephrine-treated kidneys was approximately twice normal and consisted of both norepinephrine and epinephrine in proportions similar to those found in the kidney. This difference in fractional overflow between groups was not affected by neuronal and extraneuronal uptake blockade. Propranolol had no effect on stimulus-induced overflow in either group. Phentolamine increased stimulus-induced overflow in both groups although the increment in overflow was greater in the epinephrine-treated group. In conclusion, chronic epinephrine treatment results in enhanced fractional neurotransmitter overflow. However, neither alterations in prejunctional beta-adrenoceptor influences nor alterations in neuronal and extraneuronal uptake mechanisms appear to be responsible for this alteration. Furthermore, data obtained with phentolamine alone do not suggest alpha-adrenoceptor desensitization as the cause of the enhanced neurotransmitter overflow after epinephrine treatment.","[{'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 75, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 203, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 371, 'end': 382, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 416, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 496, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 526, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 581, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 673, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 686, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 708, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 777, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 911, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 992, 'end': 1006, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'Propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1194, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'Phentolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1266, 'end': 1278, 'mesh': 'D010646'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1384, 'end': 1395, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1434, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'phentolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1731, 'end': 1743, 'mesh': 'D010646'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1861, 'end': 1872, 'mesh': 'D004837'}]" +998,1079693,Ocular manifestations of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.,"We followed 210 cases of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis closely for eleven years. Thirty-six of the 210 patients (17.2%) developed iridocyclitis. Iridocyclitis was seen most frequently in young female patients (0 to 4 years) with the monoarticular or pauciatricular form of the arthritis. However, 30% of the patients developed uveitis after 16 years of age. Although 61% of patients had a noncontributory ocular history on entry, 42% had active uveitis on entry. Our approach was effective in detecting uveitis in new cases and exacerbations of uveitis in established cases. Forty-four percent of patients with uveitis had one or more identifiable signs or symptoms, such as red eye, ocular pain, decreased visual acuity, or photophobia, in order of decreasing frequency. Even after early detection and prompt treatment, 41% of cases of uveitis did not respond to more than six months of intensive topical treatment with corticosteroids and mydriatics. Despite this, there was a dramatic decrease in the 50% incidence of blinding complications of uveitis cited in earlier studies. Cataract and band keratopathy occurred in only 22 and 13% of our group, respectively. We used chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine in 173 of 210 cases and found only one case of chorioretinopathy attributable to these drugs. Systemically administered corticosteroids were used in 75 of 210 cases; a significant number of posterior subcapsular cataracts was found. Typical keratoconjunctivitis sicca developed in three of the uveitis cases. This association with uveitis and JRA was not noted previously. Surgical treatment of cataracts, band keratopathy, and glaucoma achieved uniformly discouraging results.","[{'text': 'juvenile rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D001171'}, {'text': 'juvenile rheumatoid arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D001171'}, {'text': 'iridocyclitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D015863'}, {'text': 'Iridocyclitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 201, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D015863'}, {'text': 'arthritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 333, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D001168'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 501, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 559, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 601, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 667, 'end': 674, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'ocular pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 740, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D058447'}, {'text': 'decreased visual acuity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 753, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'photophobia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 781, 'end': 792, 'mesh': 'D020795'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 893, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'corticosteroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 977, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D000305'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1110, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'Cataract', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1137, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D002386'}, {'text': 'band keratopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1150, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'C562399'}, {'text': 'chloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'D002738'}, {'text': 'hydroxychloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D006886'}, {'text': 'chorioretinopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1329, 'mesh': 'D012164'}, {'text': 'corticosteroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1385, 'end': 1400, 'mesh': 'D000305'}, {'text': 'cataracts', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1477, 'end': 1486, 'mesh': 'D002386'}, {'text': 'keratoconjunctivitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D007637'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1559, 'end': 1566, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'uveitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1603, 'mesh': 'D014605'}, {'text': 'cataracts', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1660, 'end': 1669, 'mesh': 'D002386'}, {'text': 'band keratopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1671, 'end': 1687, 'mesh': 'C562399'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1693, 'end': 1701, 'mesh': 'D005901'}]" +999,803783,Water intoxication associated with oxytocin administration during saline-induced abortion.,"Four cases of water intoxication in connection with oxytocin administration during saline-induced abortions are described.

The oxytocin should be given only in Ringers lactate or, alternately, in Ringers lactate and a 5 per cent dextrose and water solutions. The urinary output should be monitored and the oxytocin administration discontinued and the serum electrolytes checked if the urinary output decreases. The oxytocin should not be administered in excess of 36 hours.

The association between psychiatric co-morbidity and methamphetamine-induced psychosis was also studied. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study conducted concurrently at a teaching hospital and a drug rehabilitation center in Malaysia. Patients with the diagnosis of methamphetamine based on DSM-IV were interviewed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.) for methamphetamine-induced psychosis and other Axis I psychiatric disorders. The information on sociodemographic background and drug use history was obtained from interview or medical records. RESULTS: Of 292 subjects, 47.9% of the subjects had a past history of psychotic symptoms and 13.0% of the patients were having current psychotic symptoms. Co-morbid major depressive disorder (OR=7.18, 95 CI=2.612-19.708), bipolar disorder (OR=13.807, 95 CI=5.194-36.706), antisocial personality disorder (OR=12.619, 95 CI=6.702-23.759) and heavy methamphetamine uses were significantly associated with lifetime methamphetamine-induced psychosis after adjusted for other factors. Major depressive disorder (OR=2.870, CI=1.154-7.142) and antisocial personality disorder (OR=3.299, 95 CI=1.375-7.914) were the only factors associated with current psychosis. CONCLUSION: There was a high risk of psychosis in patients with methamphetamine dependence. It was associated with co-morbid affective disorder, antisocial personality, and heavy methamphetamine use. It is recommended that all cases of methamphetamine dependence should be screened for psychotic symptoms.","[{'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 35, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 64, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 201, 'end': 216, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 225, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 252, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 357, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 550, 'end': 565, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 694, 'end': 703, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'psychiatric disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 721, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'psychotic symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 930, 'end': 948, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'psychotic symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 995, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'depressive disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1050, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'bipolar disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'antisocial personality disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1132, 'end': 1163, 'mesh': 'D000987'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1221, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1286, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1304, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'Major depressive disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1364, 'mesh': 'D003865'}, {'text': 'antisocial personality disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1396, 'end': 1427, 'mesh': 'D000987'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1513, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1552, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1594, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'affective disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1640, 'end': 1658, 'mesh': 'D019964'}, {'text': 'antisocial personality', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1660, 'end': 1682, 'mesh': 'D000987'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1694, 'end': 1709, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1751, 'end': 1766, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'psychotic symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1801, 'end': 1819, 'mesh': 'D011605'}]" +1004,23535177,Cerebellar sensory processing alterations impact motor cortical plasticity in Parkinson's disease: clues from dyskinetic patients.,"The plasticity of primary motor cortex (M1) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LIDs) is severely impaired. We recently reported in young healthy subjects that inhibitory cerebellar stimulation enhanced the sensorimotor plasticity of M1 that was induced by paired associative stimulation (PAS). This study demonstrates that the deficient sensorimotor M1 plasticity in 16 patients with LIDs could be reinstated by a single session of real inhibitory cerebellar stimulation but not sham stimulation. This was evident only when a sensory component was involved in the induction of plasticity, indicating that cerebellar sensory processing function is involved in the resurgence of M1 plasticity. The benefit of inhibitory cerebellar stimulation on LIDs is known. To explore whether this benefit is linked to the restoration of sensorimotor plasticity of M1, we conducted an additional study looking at changes in LIDs and PAS-induced plasticity after 10 sessions of either bilateral, real inhibitory cerebellar stimulation or sham stimulation. Only real and not sham stimulation had an antidyskinetic effect and it was paralleled by a resurgence in the sensorimotor plasticity of M1. These results suggest that alterations in cerebellar sensory processing function, occurring secondary to abnormal basal ganglia signals reaching it, may be an important element contributing to the maladaptive sensorimotor plasticity of M1 and the emergence of abnormal involuntary movements.","[{'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 78, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 110, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 213, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 221, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 238, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 556, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 916, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'LIDs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1085, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'abnormal involuntary movements', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1642, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +1005,23666265,The function of P2X3 receptor and NK1 receptor antagonists on cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis in rats.,"PURPOSE: The purpose of the study is to explore the function of P2X3 and NK1 receptors antagonists on cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced cystitis in rats. METHODS: Sixty female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups. The rats in the control group were intraperitoneally (i.p.) injected with 0.9% saline (4 ml/kg); the rats in the model group were i.p. injected with CYP (150 mg/kg); and the rats in the intervention group were i.p. injected with CYP with subsequently perfusion of bladder with P2X3 and NK1 receptors' antagonists, Suramin and GR 82334. Spontaneous pain behaviors following the administration of CYP were observed. Urodynamic parameters, bladder pressure-volume curve, maximum voiding pressure (MVP), and maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), were recorded. Pathological changes in bladder tissue were observed. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of P2X3 and NK1 receptors in bladder. RESULTS: Cyclophosphamide treatment increased the spontaneous pain behaviors scores. The incidence of bladder instability during urine storage period of model group was significantly higher than intervention group (X(2) = 7.619, P = 0.007) and control group (X(2) = 13.755, P = 0.000). MCC in the model group was lower than the control and intervention groups (P < 0.01). Histological changes evident in model and intervention groups rats' bladder included edema, vasodilation, and infiltration of inflammatory cells. In model group, the expression of P2X3 receptor increased in urothelium and suburothelium, and NK1 receptor increased in suburothelium, while the expression of them in intervention group was lower. CONCLUSIONS: In CYP-induced cystitis, the expression of P2X3 and NK1 receptors increased in urothelium and/or suburothelium. Perfusion of bladder with P2X3 and NK1 receptors antagonists ameliorated the bladder function.","[{'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 62, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 87, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 207, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 225, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 238, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 493, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 573, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'Suramin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 658, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D013498'}, {'text': 'GR 82334', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 670, 'end': 678, 'mesh': 'C079014'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 692, 'end': 696, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 739, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'Cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1110, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1501, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1776, 'end': 1779, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1788, 'end': 1796, 'mesh': 'D003556'}]" +1006,23846525,Acute hepatitis associated with clopidogrel: a case report and review of the literature.,"Drug-induced hepatotoxicity is a common cause of acute hepatitis, and the recognition of the responsible drug may be difficult.

This retrospective study investigated the combination of bort (1.3 mg/m(2) on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 every 3 weeks) and dex (20 mg on the day of and the day after bort) as salvage treatment in 85 patients with R/R MM after prior autologous stem cell transplantation or conventional chemotherapy. The median number of prior lines of therapy was 2. Eighty-seven percent of the patients had received immunomodulatory drugs included in some line of therapy before bort-dex. The median number of bort-dex cycles was 6, up to a maximum of 12 cycles. On an intention-to-treat basis, 55 % of the patients achieved at least partial response, including 19 % CR and 35 % achieved at least very good partial response. Median durations of response, time to next therapy and treatment-free interval were 8, 11.2, and 5.1 months, respectively. The most relevant adverse event was peripheral neuropathy, which occurred in 78 % of the patients (grade II, 38 %; grade III, 21 %) and led to treatment discontinuation in 6 %. With a median follow up of 22 months, median time to progression, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 8.9, 8.7, and 22 months, respectively. Prolonged PFS and OS were observed in patients achieving CR and receiving bort-dex a single line of prior therapy.

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a regulatory enzyme which is involved in anxiety-like behavior. This study investigated behavioral phenotypes and AChE activity in male mice following BPA exposure during puberty. On postnatal day (PND) 35, male mice were exposed to 50mg BPA/kg diet per day for a period of 35 days. On PND71, a behavioral assay was performed using the elevated plus maze (EPM) and the light/dark test. In addition, AChE activity was measured in the prefrontal cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum and hippocampus. Results from our behavioral phenotyping indicated that anxiety-like behavior was increased in mice exposed to BPA. AChE activity was significantly decreased in the hippocampus of mice with BPA compared to control mice, whereas no difference was found in the prefrontal cortex, hypothalamus and cerebellum. Our findings showed that pubertal BPA exposure increased anxiety-like behavior, which may be associated with decreased AChE activity of the hippocampus in adult male mice. Further studies are necessary to investigate the cholinergic signaling of the hippocampus in PBE induced anxiety-like behaviors.","[{'text': 'Bisphenol A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 43, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'Bisphenol A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 168, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'BPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 181, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 320, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'BPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 430, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'BPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 517, 'end': 520, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 828, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'BPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 883, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'BPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'BPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1113, 'end': 1116, 'mesh': 'C006780'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D001008'}]" +1009,23872883,Biochemical effects of Solidago virgaurea extract on experimental cardiotoxicity.,"Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the major health problem of advanced as well as developing countries of the world. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of the Solidago virgaurea extract on isoproterenol-induced cardiotoxicity in rats. The subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol (30 mg/kg) into rats twice at an interval of 24 h, for two consecutive days, led to a significant increase in serum lactate dehydrogenase, creatine phosphokinase, alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, and angiotensin-converting enzyme activities, total cholesterol, triglycerides, free serum fatty acid, cardiac tissue malondialdehyde (MDA), and nitric oxide levels and a significant decrease in levels of glutathione and superoxide dismutase in cardiac tissue as compared to the normal control group (P < 0.05). Pretreatment with S. virgaurea extract for 5 weeks at a dose of 250 mg/kg followed by isoproterenol injection significantly prevented the observed alterations. Captopril (50 mg/kg/day, given orally), an inhibitor of angiotensin-converting enzyme used as a standard cardioprotective drug, was used as a positive control in this study. The data of the present study suggest that S. virgaurea extract exerts its protective effect by decreasing MDA level and increasing the antioxidant status in isoproterenol-treated rats.

We studied the prevalence and predictors of levodopa-induced dyskinesia among multiethnic Malaysian patients with PD. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study involving 95 patients with PD on uninterrupted levodopa therapy for at least 6 months. The instrument used was the UPDRS questionnaires. The predictors of dyskinesia were determined using multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: The mean age was 65.6 + 8.5 years. The mean onset age was 58.5 + 9.8 years. The median disease duration was 6 (7) years. Dyskinesia was present in 44% (n = 42) with median levodopa therapy of 3 years. There were 64.3% Chinese, 31% Malays, and 3.7% Indians and other ethnic groups. Eighty-one percent of patients with dyskinesia had clinical fluctuations. Patients with dyskinesia had lower onset age ( p < 0.001), longer duration of levodopa therapy ( p < 0.001), longer disease duration ( p < 0.001), higher total daily levodopa dose ( p < 0.001), and higher total UPDRS scores ( p = 0.005) than patients without dyskinesia. The three significant predictors of dyskinesia were duration of levodopa therapy, onset age, and total daily levodopa dose. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of levodopa-induced dyskinesia in our patients was 44%. The most significant predictors were duration of levodopa therapy, total daily levodopa dose, and onset age.","[{'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 48, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 93, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 140, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 153, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 229, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 285, 'end': 293, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 302, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 355, 'end': 357, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 427, 'end': 429, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 555, 'end': 565, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'Dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 761, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 812, 'end': 820, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 957, 'end': 967, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1081, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1161, 'end': 1169, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1312, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1330, 'end': 1338, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1383, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1421, 'end': 1429, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1523, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1553, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'D007980'}]" +1013,24040781,An unexpected diagnosis in a renal-transplant patient with proteinuria treated with everolimus: AL amyloidosis.,"Proteinuria is an expected complication in transplant patients treated with mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors (mTOR-i).

However, the exact pattern of kidney involvement is still uncertain. We undertook a descriptive analysis of Yellow Card records of 407 HIV-positive persons taking tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) as part of their antiretroviral therapy regimen and submitted to the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) with suspected kidney adverse effects. Reports that satisfy defined criteria were classified as acute kidney injury, kidney tubular dysfunction and Fanconi syndrome. Of the 407 Yellow Card records analysed, 106 satisfied criteria for TDF-related kidney disease, of which 53 (50%) had features of kidney tubular dysfunction, 35 (33%) were found to have features of glomerular dysfunction and 18 (17%) had Fanconi syndrome. The median TDF exposure was 316 days (interquartile range 120-740). The incidence of hospitalisation for TDF kidney adverse effects was high, particularly amongst patients with features of Fanconi syndrome. The pattern of kidney syndromes in this population series mirrors that reported in randomised clinical trials.

The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of early postoperative delirium in a population without known risk factors admitted to the ICU for postoperative monitoring after elective major surgery. The secondary outcome investigated is to identify eventual independent risk factors among demographic data and anesthetic drugs used. METHODS: An observational, prospective study was conducted on a consecutive cohort of patients admitted to our ICU within and for at least 24 h after major surgical procedures. Exclusion criteria were any preexisting predisposing factor for delirium or other potentially confounding neurological dysfunctions. Patients were assessed daily using the confusion assessment method for the ICU scale for 3 days after the surgical procedure. Early postoperative delirium incidence risk factors were then assessed through three different multiple regression models. RESULTS: According to the confusion assessment method for the ICU scale, 28 % of patients were diagnosed with early postoperative delirium. The use of thiopentone was significantly associated with an eight-fold-higher risk for delirium compared to propofol (57.1% vs. 7.1%, RR = 8.0, X2 = 4.256; df = 1; 0.05 < p < 0.02). CONCLUSION: In this study early postoperative delirium was found to be a very common complication after major surgery, even in a population without known risk factors. Thiopentone was independently associated with an increase in its relative risk.","[{'text': 'postoperative delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 13, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D011183'}, {'text': 'Postoperative delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 102, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D011183'}, {'text': 'postoperative delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 237, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D011183'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 757, 'end': 765, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'neurological dysfunctions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 799, 'end': 824, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 865, 'end': 874, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'postoperative delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 958, 'end': 980, 'mesh': 'D011183'}, {'text': 'postoperative delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D011183'}, {'text': 'thiopentone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1310, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1323, 'end': 1331, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'postoperative delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1429, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'D011183'}, {'text': 'Thiopentone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1565, 'end': 1576, 'mesh': 'D013874'}]" +1016,24072398,A single neurotoxic dose of methamphetamine induces a long-lasting depressive-like behaviour in mice.,"Methamphetamine (METH) triggers a disruption of the monoaminergic system and METH abuse leads to negative emotional states including depressive symptoms during drug withdrawal. However, it is currently unknown if the acute toxic dosage of METH also causes a long-lasting depressive phenotype and persistent monoaminergic deficits. Thus, we now assessed the depressive-like behaviour in mice at early and long-term periods following a single high METH dose (30 mg/kg, i.p.). METH did not alter the motor function and procedural memory of mice as assessed by swimming speed and escape latency to find the platform in a cued version of the water maze task. However, METH significantly increased the immobility time in the tail suspension test at 3 and 49 days post-administration. This depressive-like profile induced by METH was accompanied by a marked depletion of frontostriatal dopaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmission, indicated by a reduction in the levels of dopamine, DOPAC and HVA, tyrosine hydroxylase and serotonin, observed at both 3 and 49 days post-administration. In parallel, another neurochemical feature of depression--astroglial dysfunction--was unaffected in the cortex and the striatal levels of the astrocytic protein marker, glial fibrillary acidic protein, were only transiently increased at 3 days. These findings demonstrate for the first time that a single high dose of METH induces long-lasting depressive-like behaviour in mice associated with a persistent disruption of frontostriatal dopaminergic and serotonergic homoeostasis.","[{'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 9, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'depressive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 67, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'Methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 123, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'depressive symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 235, 'end': 254, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 341, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'depressive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 373, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'depressive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 459, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 765, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'depressive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 885, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 920, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1080, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DOPAC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1087, 'mesh': 'D015102'}, {'text': 'HVA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D006719'}, {'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1097, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1241, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'METH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1503, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'depressive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1529, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D003866'}]" +1017,24088636,Linezolid-induced optic neuropathy.,Many systemic antimicrobials have been implicated to cause ocular adverse effects.

METHODS: Newborn piglets received levobupivacaine until cardiovascular collapse occurred. Standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation was started and electrocardiogram (ECG) was monitored for ventricular tachycardia, fibrillation, or QRS prolongation. Piglets were then randomly allocated to four groups: control (saline), Intralipid( ) alone, epinephrine alone, or a combination of Intralipd plus epinephrine. Resuscitation continued for 30 min or until there was a return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) accompanied by a mean arterial pressure at or superior to the baseline pressure and normal sinus rhythm for a period of 30 min. RESULTS: ROSC was achieved in only one of the control piglets compared with most of the treated piglets. Mortality was not significantly different between the three treatment groups, but was significantly lower in all the treatment groups compared with control. The number of ECG abnormalities was zero in the Intralipid only group, but 14 and 17, respectively, in the epinephrine and epinephrine plus lipid groups (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Lipid emulsion with or without epinephrine, or epinephrine alone were equally effective in achieving a return to spontaneous circulation in this model of LAST. Epinephrine alone or in combination with lipid was associated with an increased number of ECG abnormalities compared with lipid emulsion alone.","[{'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 74, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 170, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 316, 'end': 331, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular collapse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 338, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 469, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 494, 'end': 506, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 675, 'end': 686, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1382, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1398, 'end': 1409, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'Epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D004837'}]" +1019,24100055,Incidence of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia type II and postoperative recovery of platelet count in liver graft recipients: a retrospective cohort analysis.,"BACKGROUND: Thrombocytopenia in patients with end-stage liver disease is a common disorder caused mainly by portal hypertension, low levels of thrombopoetin, and endotoxemia. The impact of immune-mediated heparin-induced thrombocytopenia type II (HIT type II) as a cause of thrombocytopenia after liver transplantation is not yet understood, with few literature citations reporting contradictory results. The aim of our study was to demonstrate the perioperative course of thrombocytopenia after liver transplantation and determine the occurrence of clinical HIT type II. METHOD: We retrospectively evaluated the medical records of 205 consecutive adult patients who underwent full-size liver transplantation between January 2006 and December 2010 due to end-stage or malignant liver disease. Preoperative platelet count, postoperative course of platelets, and clinical signs of HIT type II were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 155 (75.6%) of 205 patients had thrombocytopenia before transplantation, significantly influenced by Model of End-Stage Liver Disease score and liver cirrhosis. The platelet count exceeded 100,000/uL in most of the patients (n = 193) at a medium of 7 d. Regarding HIT II, there were four (1.95%) patients with a background of HIT type II. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of HIT in patients with end-stage hepatic failure is, with about 1.95%, rare. For further reduction of HIT type II, the use of intravenous heparin should be avoided and the prophylactic anticoagulation should be performed with low-molecular-weight heparin after normalization of platelet count.","[{'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia type II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 29, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'Thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 171, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'end-stage liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D058625'}, {'text': 'portal hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 267, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D006975'}, {'text': 'endotoxemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 321, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D019446'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 364, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia type II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 380, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT type II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 406, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 433, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 632, 'end': 648, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT type II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 718, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT type II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'End-Stage Liver Disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1195, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D058625'}, {'text': 'liver cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1244, 'mesh': 'D008103'}, {'text': 'HIT II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1355, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT type II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1411, 'end': 1422, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1454, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'end-stage hepatic failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1500, 'mesh': 'D058625'}, {'text': 'HIT type II', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1554, 'end': 1565, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1590, 'end': 1597, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1699, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D006493'}]" +1020,24100257,Takotsubo syndrome (or apical ballooning syndrome) secondary to Zolmitriptan.,"Takotsubo syndrome (TS), also known as broken heart syndrome, is characterized by left ventricle apical ballooning with elevated cardiac biomarkers and electrocardiographic changes suggestive of an acute coronary syndrome (ie, ST-segment elevation, T wave inversions, and pathologic Q waves).

Unfortunately, the results from human research investigating its psychological effects have been inconsistent. OBJECTIVES: The present study aimed to be the largest to date in sample size and 5HT-related behaviors; the first to compare present ecstasy users with past users after an abstinence of 4 or more years, and the first to include robust controls for other recreational substances. METHODS: A sample of 997 participants (52 % male) was recruited to four control groups (non-drug (ND), alcohol/nicotine (AN), cannabis/alcohol/nicotine (CAN), non-ecstasy polydrug (PD)), and two ecstasy polydrug groups (present (MDMA) and past users (EX-MDMA). Participants completed a drug history questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory, Barratt Impulsiveness Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised which, in total, provided 13 psychometric measures. RESULTS: While the CAN and PD groups tended to record greater deficits than the non-drug controls, the MDMA and EX-MDMA groups recorded greater deficits than all the control groups on ten of the 13 psychometric measures. Strikingly, despite prolonged abstinence (mean, 4.98; range, 4-9 years), past ecstasy users showed few signs of recovery. Compared with present ecstasy users, the past users showed no change for ten measures, increased impairment for two measures, and improvement on just one measure. CONCLUSIONS: Given this record of impaired memory and clinically significant levels of depression, impulsiveness, and sleep disturbance, the prognosis for the current generation of ecstasy users is a major cause for concern.","[{'text': 'Depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'impulsiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 12, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D010554'}, {'text': '3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 118, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 124, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'Ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': '3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 189, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 739, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'AN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 749, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D000431|D009538'}, {'text': 'cannabis', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 762, 'mesh': 'D002188'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 763, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'CAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 781, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D002188|D000431|D009538'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 791, 'end': 798, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 861, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 882, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'Depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 947, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'Impulsiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 977, 'end': 990, 'mesh': 'D010554'}, {'text': 'CAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D002188|D000431|D009538'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1223, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1415, 'end': 1422, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1481, 'end': 1488, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'impaired memory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1656, 'end': 1671, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1709, 'end': 1719, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'impulsiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1721, 'end': 1734, 'mesh': 'D010554'}, {'text': 'sleep disturbance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1740, 'end': 1757, 'mesh': 'D020920'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1803, 'end': 1810, 'mesh': 'D018817'}]" +1022,24126708,Association of common genetic variants of HOMER1 gene with levodopa adverse effects in Parkinson's disease patients.,"Levodopa is the most effective symptomatic therapy for Parkinson's disease, but its chronic use could lead to chronic adverse outcomes, such as motor fluctuations, dyskinesia and visual hallucinations.

It has been shown that exposure to diazinon may interfere with lipid metabolism. Moreover, the hypolipidemic effect of crocin has been established. Earlier studies revealed the major role of Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathways in low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLr) expression. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in the regulation of lipid metabolism, ERK and LDLr expression in the liver of rats exposed to subacute diazinon. Furthermore ameliorating effect of crocin on diazinon induced disturbed cholesterol homeostasis was studied. METHODS: 24 Rats were divided into 4 groups and received following treatments for 4 weeks; Corn oil (control), diazinon (15mg/kg per day, orally) and crocin (12.5 and 25mg/kg per day, intraperitoneally) in combination with diazinon (15 mg/kg). The levels of cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL in blood of rats were analyzed. Moreover mRNA levels of LDLr and ERK1/2 as well as protein levels of total and activated forms of ERK1/2 in rat liver were evaluated by Western blotting and quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction analysis. RESULTS: Our data showed that subacute exposure to diazinon significantly increased concentrations of cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL. Moreover diazinon decreased ERK1/2 protein phosphorylation and LDLr transcript. Crocin reduced inhibition of ERK activation and diazinon-induced hyperlipemia and increased levels of LDLr transcript. CONCLUSIONS: Crocin may be considered as a novel protective agent in diazinon-induced hyperlipemia through modulating of ERK pathway and increase of LDLr expression.","[{'text': 'Crocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 6, 'mesh': 'C029036'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'Diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 117, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'organophosphorus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 159, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 240, 'end': 248, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'crocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'C029036'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 654, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'crocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 699, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'C029036'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 709, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 736, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 884, 'end': 892, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'crocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'C029036'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 996, 'end': 1004, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1364, 'end': 1372, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1415, 'end': 1426, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1467, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'Crocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1536, 'mesh': 'C029036'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1578, 'end': 1586, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'hyperlipemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1595, 'end': 1607, 'mesh': 'D006949'}, {'text': 'Crocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1662, 'end': 1668, 'mesh': 'C029036'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1718, 'end': 1726, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'hyperlipemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1735, 'end': 1747, 'mesh': 'D006949'}]" +1024,24158386,GEM-P chemotherapy is active in the treatment of relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma.,"Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a relatively chemosensitive malignancy. However, for those who relapse, high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant is the treatment of choice which relies on adequate disease control with salvage chemotherapy. Regimens commonly used often require inpatient administration and can be difficult to deliver due to toxicity. Gemcitabine and cisplatin have activity in HL, non-overlapping toxicity with first-line chemotherapeutics, and may be delivered in an outpatient setting. In this retrospective single-centre analysis, patients with relapsed or refractory HL treated with gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m(2) day (D)1, D8 and D15; methylprednisolone 1,000 mg D1-5; and cisplatin 100 mg/m(2) D15, every 28 days (GEM-P) were included. Demographic, survival, response and toxicity data were recorded. Forty-one eligible patients were identified: median age 27. One hundred and twenty-two cycles of GEM-P were administered in total (median 3 cycles; range 1-6). Twenty of 41 (48 %) patients received GEM-P as second-line treatment and 11/41 (27 %) as third-line therapy. Overall response rate (ORR) to GEM-P in the entire cohort was 80 % (complete response (CR) 37 %, partial response 44 %) with 14/15 CR confirmed as a metabolic CR on PET and ORR of 85 % in the 20 second-line patients. The most common grade 3/4 toxicities were haematological: neutropenia 54 % and thrombocytopenia 51 %. Median follow-up from the start of GEM-P was 4.5 years.

While some recent studies suggest acute changes in neuroendocrine function, less is known about long-term changes in HPA functionality in recreational users. OBJECTIVES: The current study is the first to explore the effects of ecstasy-polydrug use on psychological distress and basal functioning of the HPA axis through assessing the secretion of cortisol across the diurnal period. METHOD: Seventy-six participants (21 nonusers, 29 light ecstasy-polydrug users, 26 heavy ecstasy-polydrug users) completed a substance use inventory and measures of psychological distress at baseline, then two consecutive days of cortisol sampling (on awakening, 30 min post awakening, between 1400 and 1600 hours and pre bedtime). On day 2, participants also attended the laboratory to complete a 20-min multitasking stressor. RESULTS: Both user groups exhibited significantly greater levels of anxiety and depression than nonusers. On day 1, all participants exhibited a typical cortisol profile, though light users had significantly elevated levels pre-bed. On day 2, heavy users demonstrated elevated levels upon awakening and all ecstasy-polydrug users demonstrated elevated pre-bed levels compared to non-users. Significant between group differences were also observed in afternoon cortisol levels and in overall cortisol secretion across the day. CONCLUSIONS: The increases in anxiety and depression are in line with previous observations in recreational ecstasy-polydrug users. Dysregulated diurnal cortisol may be indicative of inappropriate anticipation of forthcoming demands and hypersecretion may lead to the increased psychological and physical morbidity associated with heavy recreational use of ecstasy.","[{'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 110, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'Ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'MDMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'psychobiological dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 224, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 481, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 601, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 693, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 726, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 867, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1145, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1218, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1372, 'end': 1379, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1525, 'end': 1533, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1556, 'end': 1564, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1621, 'end': 1628, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1633, 'end': 1643, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1699, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'cortisol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1744, 'end': 1752, 'mesh': 'D006854'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1948, 'end': 1955, 'mesh': 'D018817'}]" +1026,24209900,Ifosfamide related encephalopathy: the need for a timely EEG evaluation.,"BACKGROUND: Ifosfamide is an alkylating agent useful in the treatment of a wide range of cancers including sarcomas, lymphoma, gynecologic and testicular cancers. Encephalopathy has been reported in 10-40% of patients receiving high-dose IV ifosfamide. OBJECTIVE: To highlight the role of electroencephalogram (EEG) in the early detection and management of ifosfamide related encephalopathy. METHODS: Retrospective chart review including clinical data and EEG recordings was done on five patients, admitted to MD Anderson Cancer Center between years 2009 and 2012, who developed ifosfamide related acute encephalopathy. RESULTS: All five patients experienced symptoms of encephalopathy soon after (within 12 h-2 days) receiving ifosfamide. Two patients developed generalized convulsions while one patient developed continuous non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) that required ICU admission and intubation. Initial EEG showed epileptiform discharges in three patients; run of triphasic waves in one patient and moderate degree diffuse generalized slowing. Mixed pattern with the presence of both sharps and triphasic waves were also noted. Repeat EEGs within 24_h of symptom onset showed marked improvement that was correlated with clinical improvement. CONCLUSIONS: Severity of ifosfamide related encephalopathy correlates with EEG changes. We suggest a timely EEG evaluation for patients receiving ifosfamide who develop features of encephalopathy.","[{'text': 'Ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'Ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 85, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'sarcomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D012509'}, {'text': 'lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 190, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'gynecologic and testicular cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 200, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'Encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 314, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 430, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 449, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'Cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 595, 'end': 601, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 677, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 744, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 801, 'end': 811, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 848, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'non-convulsive status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 899, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'NCSE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 934, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1389, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1477, 'end': 1487, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D001927'}]" +1027,24220752,Incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy in hospitalised patients with cancer.,"OBJECTIVES: To determine the frequency of and possible factors related to contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in hospitalised patients with cancer. METHODS: Ninety adult patients were enrolled. Patients with risk factors for acute renal failure were excluded. Blood samples were examined the day before contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and serially for 3 days thereafter. CIN was defined as an increase in serum creatinine (Cr) of 0.5 mg/dl or more, or elevation of Cr to 25 % over baseline. Relationships between CIN and possible risk factors were investigated. RESULTS: CIN was detected in 18/90 (20 %) patients. CIN developed in 25.5 % patients who underwent chemotherapy and in 11 % patients who did not (P = 0.1). CIN more frequently developed in patients who had undergone CT within 45 days after the last chemotherapy (P = 0.005); it was also an independent risk factor (P = 0.017). CIN was significantly more after treatment with bevacizumab/irinotecan (P = 0.021) and in patients with hypertension (P = 0.044). CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of CIN after CT in hospitalised oncological patients was 20 %. CIN developed 4.5-times more frequently in patients with cancer who had undergone recent chemotherapy. Hypertension and the combination of bevacizumab/irinotecan may be additional risk factors for CIN development. KEY POINTS: . Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a concern for oncological patients undergoing CT. . CIN occurs more often when CT is performed <45 days after chemotherapy. . Hypertension and treatment with bevacizumab appear to be additional risk factors.","[{'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 30, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 72, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 171, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 304, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 382, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 511, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'Cr', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D002857'}, {'text': 'Cr', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 555, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D002857'}, {'text': 'bevacizumab', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'irinotecan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'C051890'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1083, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1256, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'Hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'bevacizumab', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1338, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'irinotecan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1350, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'C051890'}, {'text': 'Contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1427, 'end': 1435, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1455, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1591, 'end': 1603, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'bevacizumab', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1623, 'end': 1634, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +1028,24234943,Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion associated with desvenlafaxine.,"OBJECTIVE: To report a case of syndrome of inappropriate anti-diuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion associated with desvenlafaxine. CASE SUMMARY: A 57-year old female with hyponatraemia. Her medications included desvenlafaxine, and symptoms included nausea, anxiety and confusion. The serum sodium at this time was 120 mmol/L, serum osmolality was 263 mosmol/kg, urine osmolality 410 mosmol/kg and urine sodium 63 mmol/L, consistent with a diagnosis of SIADH. Desvenlafaxine was ceased and fluid restriction implemented. After 4 days the sodium increased to 128 mmol/L and fluid restriction was relaxed. During her further 3 weeks inpatient admission the serum sodium ranged from 134 to 137 mmol/L during treatment with mirtazapine. DISCUSSION: SIADH has been widely reported with a range of antidepressants. This case report suggests that desvenlafaxine might cause clinically significant hyponatremia. CONCLUSIONS: Clinicians should be aware of the potential for antidepressants to cause hyponatremia,and take appropriate corrective action where necessary.","[{'text': 'Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'desvenlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'C086816'}, {'text': 'syndrome of inappropriate anti-diuretic hormone', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 120, 'end': 167, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 169, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'desvenlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 202, 'end': 216, 'mesh': 'C086816'}, {'text': 'hyponatraemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 258, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D007010'}, {'text': 'desvenlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 298, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'C086816'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 336, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 344, 'end': 351, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 356, 'end': 365, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 377, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 490, 'end': 496, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 539, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'Desvenlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 546, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'C086816'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 624, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 747, 'end': 753, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'mirtazapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 806, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'C035133'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 831, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'desvenlafaxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'C086816'}, {'text': 'hyponatremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 976, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D007010'}, {'text': 'hyponatremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1088, 'mesh': 'D007010'}]" +1029,24275640,Oxidative stress on cardiotoxicity after treatment with single and multiple doses of doxorubicin.,"The mechanism of doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity remains controversial. Wistar rats (n = 66) received DOX injections intraperitoneally and were randomly assigned to 2 experimental protocols: (1) rats were killed before (-24 h, n = 8) and 24 h after (+24 h, n = 8) a single dose of DOX (4 mg/kg body weight) to determine the DOX acute effect and (2) rats (n = 58) received 4 injections of DOX (4 mg/kg body weight/week) and were killed before the first injection (M0) and 1 week after each injection (M1, M2, M3, and M4) to determine the chronological effects. Animals used at M0 (n = 8) were also used at moment -24 h of acute study. Cardiac total antioxidant performance (TAP), DNA damage, and morphology analyses were carried out at each time point. Single dose of DOX was associated with increased cardiac disarrangement, necrosis, and DNA damage (strand breaks (SBs) and oxidized pyrimidines) and decreased TAP. The chronological study showed an effect of a cumulative dose on body weight (R = -0.99, p = 0.011), necrosis (R = 1.00, p = 0.004), TAP (R = 0.95, p = 0.049), and DNA SBs (R = -0.95, p = 0.049). DNA SBs damage was negatively associated with TAP (R = -0.98, p = 0.018), and necrosis (R = -0.97, p = 0.027). Our results suggest that oxidative damage is associated with acute cardiotoxicity induced by a single dose of DOX only. Increased resistance to the oxidative stress is plausible for the multiple dose of DOX. Thus, different mechanisms may be involved in acute toxicity versus chronic toxicity.","[{'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 85, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 128, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 209, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 388, 'end': 391, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 431, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 495, 'end': 498, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 874, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiac disarrangement', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 908, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 932, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1132, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1397, 'end': 1411, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1440, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1536, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1590, 'end': 1598, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1614, 'end': 1622, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +1030,24283660,Tacrolimus-related seizure after pediatric liver transplantation--a single-center experience.,"To identify the risk factors for new-onset seizures after pediatric LT and to assess their clinical implications and long-term prognosis. The clinical and laboratory data of 27 consecutive children who underwent LT from January 2007 to December 2010 in our center were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were divided into seizures group and a non-seizures group. Pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative data were collected. Seizures occurred in four children, an incidence of 14.8%. All exhibited generalized tonic-clonic seizures within the first two wk after LT. Univariate analysis showed that the risk factors associated with seizures after pediatric LT included gender, pediatric end-stage liver disease score before surgery, Child-Pugh score before surgery, serum total bilirubin after surgery, and trough TAC level. Multivariate analysis showed that trough TAC level was the only independent risk factor associated with the seizures. All children who experienced seizures survived with good graft function and remained seizure-free without anti-epileptic drugs over a mean follow-up period of 33.7 + 14.6 months. High trough TAC level was the predominant factor that contributed to seizures in the early post-operative period after pediatric LT. High PELD and Child-Pugh scores before LT and high post-operative serum Tbil may be contributory risk factors for TAC-related seizures.","[{'text': 'Tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 137, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 416, 'end': 424, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 441, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 529, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tonic-clonic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 614, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 735, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'end-stage liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 790, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D058625'}, {'text': 'bilirubin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 881, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D001663'}, {'text': 'TAC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 917, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'TAC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 969, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1131, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'TAC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1240, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1302, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'TAC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1472, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1484, 'end': 1492, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +1031,24284476,The flavonoid apigenin delays forgetting of passive avoidance conditioning in rats.,"The present experiments were performed to study the effect of the flavonoid apigenin (20 mg/kg intraperitoneally (i.p.), 1 h before acquisition), on 24 h retention performance and forgetting of a step-through passive avoidance task, in young male Wistar rats. There were no differences between saline- and apigenin-treated groups in the 24 h retention trial. Furthermore, apigenin did not prevent the amnesia induced by scopolamine (1mg/kg, i.p., 30 min before the acquisition). The saline- and apigenin-treated rats that did not step through into the dark compartment during the cut-off time (540 s) were retested weekly for up to eight weeks. In the saline treated group, the first significant decline in passive avoidance response was observed at four weeks, and complete memory loss was found five weeks after the acquisition of the passive avoidance task. At the end of the experimental period, 60% of the animals treated with apigenin still did not step through. These data suggest that 1) apigenin delays the long-term forgetting but did not modulate the 24 h retention of fear memory and 2) the obtained beneficial effect of apigenin on the passive avoidance conditioning is mediated by mechanisms that do not implicate its action on the muscarinic cholinergic system.","[{'text': 'flavonoid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 4, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D005419'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 14, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D047310'}, {'text': 'flavonoid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D005419'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D047310'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 390, 'end': 398, 'mesh': 'D047310'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D047310'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 485, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 504, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 579, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D047310'}, {'text': 'memory loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 859, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D047310'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1088, 'mesh': 'D047310'}, {'text': 'apigenin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1217, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'D047310'}]" +1032,24309294,Cholecystokinin-octapeptide restored morphine-induced hippocampal long-term potentiation impairment in rats.,"Cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK-8), which is a typical brain-gut peptide, exerts a wide range of biological activities on the central nervous system. We have previously reported that CCK-8 significantly alleviated morphine-induced amnesia and reversed spine density decreases in the CA1 region of the hippocampus in morphine-treated animals. Here, we investigated the effects of CCK-8 on long-term potentiation (LTP) in the lateral perforant path (LPP)-granule cell synapse of rat dentate gyrus (DG) in acute saline or morphine-treated rats. Population spikes (PS), which were evoked by stimulation of the LPP, were recorded in the DG region. Acute morphine (30mg/kg, s.c.) treatment significantly attenuated hippocampal LTP and CCK-8 (1ug, i.c.v.) restored the amplitude of PS that was attenuated by morphine injection. Furthermore, microinjection of CCK-8 (0.1 and 1ug, i.c.v.) also significantly augmented hippocampal LTP in saline-treated (1ml/kg, s.c.) rats. Pre-treatment of the CCK2 receptor antagonist L-365,260 (10ug, i.c.v) reversed the effects of CCK-8, but the CCK1 receptor antagonist L-364,718 (10ug, i.c.v) did not. The present results demonstrate that CCK-8 attenuates the effect of morphine on hippocampal LTP through CCK2 receptors and suggest an ameliorative function of CCK-8 on morphine-induced memory impairment.","[{'text': 'Cholecystokinin-octapeptide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Cholecystokinin-octapeptide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 109, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 293, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 341, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 426, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 489, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 629, 'end': 637, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 759, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 844, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 911, 'end': 919, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 962, 'end': 967, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1317, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CCK-8', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1400, 'end': 1405, 'mesh': 'D012844'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1417, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1426, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D008569'}]" +1033,24333387,Glial activation and post-synaptic neurotoxicity: the key events in Streptozotocin (ICV) induced memory impairment in rats.,"In the present study the role of glial activation and post synaptic toxicity in ICV Streptozotocin (STZ) induced memory impaired rats was explored. In experiment set up 1: Memory deficit was found in Morris water maze test on 14-16 days after STZ (ICV; 3mg/Kg) administration. STZ causes increased expression of GFAP, CD11b and TNF-a indicating glial activation and neuroinflammation. STZ also significantly increased the level of ROS, nitrite, Ca(2+) and reduced the mitochondrial activity in synaptosomal preparation illustrating free radical generation and excitotoxicity. Increased expression and activity of Caspase-3 was also observed in STZ treated rat which specify apoptotic cell death in hippocampus and cortex. STZ treatment showed decrease expression of post synaptic markers CaMKIIa and PSD-95, while, expression of pre synaptic markers (synaptophysin and SNAP-25) remains unaltered indicating selective post synaptic neurotoxicity. Oral treatment with Memantine (10mg/kg) and Ibuprofen (50 mg/kg) daily for 13 days attenuated STZ induced glial activation, apoptotic cell death and post synaptic neurotoxicity in rat brain. Further, in experiment set up 2: where memory function was not affected i.e. 7-9 days after STZ treatment. The level of GFAP, CD11b, TNF-a, ROS and nitrite levels were increased. On the other hand, apoptotic marker, synaptic markers, mitochondrial activity and Ca(2+) levels remained unaffected. Collective data indicates that neuroinflammatory process and oxidative stress occurs earlier to apoptosis and does not affect memory function. Present study clearly suggests that glial activation and post synaptic neurotoxicity are the key factors in STZ induced memory impairment and neuronal cell death.","[{'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 35, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'Streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 97, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'memory impaired', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 237, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'Memory deficit', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 296, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 367, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 401, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'neuroinflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 490, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 509, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'nitrite', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D009573'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'excitotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 684, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 768, 'end': 771, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 846, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'Memantine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D008559'}, {'text': 'Ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1114, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1167, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1246, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1353, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'nitrite', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D009573'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1524, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'neuroinflammatory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1588, 'end': 1605, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1771, 'end': 1784, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1808, 'end': 1811, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1820, 'end': 1837, 'mesh': 'D008569'}]" +1034,24341598,Comparison of effects of isotonic sodium chloride with diltiazem in prevention of contrast-induced nephropathy.,"INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) significantly increases the morbidity and mortality of patients. The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the protective effects of isotonic sodium chloride with sodium bicarbonate infusion and isotonic sodium chloride infusion with diltiazem, a calcium channel blocker, in preventing CIN. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Our study included patients who were administered 30-60 mL of iodinated contrast agent for percutaneous coronary angiography (PCAG), all with creatinine values between 1.1 and 3.1 mg/dL. Patients were divided into three groups and each group had 20 patients. The first group of patients was administered isotonic sodium chloride; the second group was administered a solution that of 5% dextrose and sodium bicarbonate, while the third group was administered isotonic sodium chloride before and after the contrast injection. The third group received an additional injection of diltiazem the day before and first 2 days after the contrast injection. All of the patients' plasma blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine levels were measured on the second and seventh day after the administration of intravenous contrast material. RESULTS: The basal creatinine levels were similar for all three groups (p > 0.05). Among a total of 60 patients included in the study, 16 patients developed acute renal failure (ARF) on the second day after contrast material was injected (26.6%). The number of patients who developed ARF on the second day after the injection in the first group was five (25%), in the second group was six (30%) and the third group was five (25%) (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: There was no significant difference between isotonic sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and isotonic sodium chloride with diltiazem application in prevention of CIN.","[{'text': 'sodium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 99, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 157, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'sodium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'sodium bicarbonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D017693'}, {'text': 'sodium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 389, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 419, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 432, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 571, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 641, 'end': 651, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'sodium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 812, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'dextrose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 885, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'sodium bicarbonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 898, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'D017693'}, {'text': 'sodium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 966, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1003, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'blood urea nitrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1175, 'end': 1194, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'BUN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1196, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D001806'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1307, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1355, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1502, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'ARF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'contrast', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'ARF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1610, 'end': 1613, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'sodium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1833, 'end': 1848, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'sodium bicarbonate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1850, 'end': 1868, 'mesh': 'D017693'}, {'text': 'sodium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1882, 'end': 1897, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1903, 'end': 1912, 'mesh': 'D004110'}]" +1035,24345882,Neurocognitive and neuroradiologic central nervous system late effects in children treated on Pediatric Oncology Group (POG) P9605 (standard risk) and P9201 (lesser risk) acute lymphoblastic leukemia protocols (ACCL0131): a methotrexate consequence? A report from the Children's Oncology Group.,"Concerns about long-term methotrexate (MTX) neurotoxicity in the 1990s led to modifications in intrathecal (IT) therapy, leucovorin rescue, and frequency of systemic MTX administration in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In this study, neurocognitive outcomes and neuroradiologic evidence of leukoencephalopathy were compared in children treated with intense central nervous system (CNS)-directed therapy (P9605) versus those receiving fewer CNS-directed treatment days during intensive consolidation (P9201). A total of 66 children from 16 Pediatric Oncology Group institutions with ""standard-risk"" acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 1.00 to 9.99 years at diagnosis, without evidence of CNS leukemia at diagnosis were enrolled on ACCL0131: 28 from P9201 and 38 from P9605. Magnetic resonance imaging scans and standard neuropsychological tests were performed >2.6 years after the end of treatment. Significantly more P9605 patients developed leukoencephalopathy compared with P9201 patients (68%, 95% confidence interval 49%-83% vs. 22%, 95% confidence interval 5%-44%; P=0.001) identified as late as 7.7 years after the end of treatment. Overall, 40% of patients scored <85 on either Verbal or Performance IQ. Children on both studies had significant attention problems, but P9605 children scored below average on more neurocognitive measures than those treated on P9201 (82%, 14/17 measures vs. 24%, 4/17 measures). This supports ongoing concerns about intensive MTX exposure as a major contributor to CNS late effects.","[{'text': 'acute lymphoblastic leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 171, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D054198'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 320, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 334, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'acute lymphoblastic leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 497, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D054198'}, {'text': 'leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 598, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'acute lymphoblastic leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 906, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D054198'}, {'text': 'leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 993, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D007938'}, {'text': 'leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1244, 'end': 1263, 'mesh': 'D056784'}, {'text': 'attention problems', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1554, 'end': 1572, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1767, 'end': 1770, 'mesh': 'D008727'}]" +1036,24434397,Tranexamic acid overdosage-induced generalized seizure in renal failure.,"We report a 45-year-old lady with chronic kidney disease stage 4 due to chronic tubulointerstial disease.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of propofol in intralipid or medialipid emulsions on bupivacaine-induced cardiotoxicity. METHODS: Rats were anaesthetised with ketamine and were given 0.5 mg/kg/min propofol in intralipid (Group P), propofol in medialipid (Group L), or saline (Group C) over 20 min. Thereafter, 2 mg/kg/min bupivacaine 0.5% was infused. We recorded time to first dysrhythmia occurrence, respective times to 25% and 50% reduction of the heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure, and time to asystole and total amount of bupivacaine consumption. Blood and tissue samples were collected following asystole. RESULTS: The time to first dysrhythmia occurrence, time to 25% and 50% reductions in HR, and time to asystole were longer in Group P than the other groups. The cumulative bupivacaine dose given at those time points was higher in Group P. Plasma bupivacaine levels were significantly lower in Group P than in Group C. Bupivacaine levels in the brain and heart were significantly lower in Group P and Group L than in Group C. CONCLUSION: We conclude that pre-treatment with propofol in intralipid, compared with propofol in medialipid or saline, delayed the onset of bupivacaine-induced cardiotoxic effects as well as reduced plasma bupivacaine levels. Further studies are needed to explore tissue bupivacaine levels of propofol in medialipid and adapt these results to clinical practice.","[{'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 17, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 37, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 101, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 201, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 239, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 262, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 282, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 353, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 423, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 477, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 515, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 549, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 640, 'end': 651, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'dysrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 696, 'end': 707, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'asystole', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 825, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 854, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'asystole', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 929, 'end': 937, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'dysrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 966, 'end': 977, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'asystole', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1040, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1184, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'Bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1256, 'end': 1267, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1411, 'end': 1419, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1449, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1515, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1524, 'end': 1535, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1570, 'end': 1581, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1635, 'end': 1646, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1657, 'end': 1665, 'mesh': 'D015742'}]" +1038,24451297,Drug-Induced Acute Liver Injury Within 12 Hours After Fluvastatin Therapy.,"Although statins are generally well-tolerated drugs, recent cases of drug-induced liver injury associated with their use have been reported.

METHODS: Seventy-five patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma treated with epirubicin were studied. Blood collection and echocardiography were performed at baseline, 1 day after the third cycle, and 1 day after completion of chemotherapy. Patients were studied using echocardiography during follow-up. Global longitudinal (GLS), circumferential (GCS), and radial strain (GRS) were calculated using speckle tracking echocardiography. Left ventricular ejection fraction was analysed by real-time 3D echocardiography. Cardiotoxicity was defined as a reduction of the LVEF of >5% to <55% with symptoms of heart failure or an asymptomatic reduction of the LVEF of >10% to <55%. RESULTS: Fourteen patients (18.67%) developed cardiotoxicity after treatment. GLS (-18.48 + 1.72% vs. -15.96 + 1.6%), GCS (-20.93 + 2.86% vs. -19.20 + 3.21%), and GRS (39.23 + 6.44% vs. 34.98 + 6.2%) were markedly reduced and cTnT was elevated from 0.0010 + 0.0020 to 0.0073 + 0.0038 ng/mL (P all < 0.01) at the completion of chemotherapy compared with baseline values. A >15.9% decrease in GLS [sensitivity, 86%; specificity, 75%; area under the curve (AUC) = 0.815; P = 0.001] and a >0.004 ng/mL elevation in cTnT (sensitivity, 79%; specificity, 64%; AUC = 0.757; P = 0.005) from baseline to the third cycle of chemotherapy predicted later cardiotoxicity. The decrease in GLS remained the only independent predictor of cardiotoxicity (P = 0.000). CONCLUSIONS: GLS combined with cTnT may provide a reliable and non-invasive method to predict cardiac dysfunction in patients receiving anthracycline-based chemotherapy.","[{'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 135, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'epirubicine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 157, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D015251'}, {'text': 'myocardial strain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 233, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 317, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'epirubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 355, 'end': 365, 'mesh': 'D015251'}, {'text': 'non-Hodgkin lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 412, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D008228'}, {'text': 'epirubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D015251'}, {'text': 'Cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 886, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1104, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1686, 'end': 1700, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1765, 'end': 1779, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1887, 'end': 1906, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1929, 'end': 1942, 'mesh': 'D018943'}]" +1041,24535067,"Prevention of etomidate-induced myoclonus: which is superior: Fentanyl, midazolam, or a combination? A Retrospective comparative study.","BACKGROUND: In this retrospective comparative study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness of fentanyl, midazolam, and a combination of fentanyl and midazolam to prevent etomidate-induced myoclonus. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study was performed based on anesthesia records. Depending on the drugs that would be given before the induction of anesthesia with etomidate, the patients were separated into 4 groups: no pretreatment (Group NP), fentanyl 1 ug.kg-1 (Group F), midazolam 0.03 mg.kg-1 (Group M), and midazolam 0.015 mg.kg-1 + fentanyl 0.5 ug.kg-1 (Group FM). Patients who received the same anesthetic procedure were selected: 2 minutes after intravenous injections of the pretreatment drugs, anesthesia is induced with 0.3 mg.kg-1 etomidate injected intravenously over a period of 20-30 seconds. Myoclonic movements are evaluated, which were observed and graded according to clinical severity during the 2 minutes after etomidate injection. The severity of pain due to etomidate injection, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and adverse effects were also evaluated. RESULTS: Study results showed that myoclonus incidence was 85%, 40%, 70%, and 25% in Group NP, Group F, Group M, and Group FM, respectively, and were significantly lower in Group F and Group FM.

This patient had no associated personality disorder (particularly no antisocial disorder) and no substance abuse disorder. Within the 48 h following the gradual introduction of quetiapine (up to 600 mg/day), the patient presented severe agitation without an environmental explanation, contrasting with the absence of a history of aggressiveness or personality disorder. The diagnoses of manic shift and akathisia were dismissed. The withdrawal and the gradual reintroduction of quetiapine 2 weeks later, which led to another severe agitation, enabled us to attribute the agitation specifically to quetiapine.","[{'text': 'agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'quetiapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'C069541'}, {'text': 'schizo-affective disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 72, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'schizo-affective disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'zuclopenthixol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 272, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D003006'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'personality disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 385, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D010554'}, {'text': 'antisocial disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 423, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D000987'}, {'text': 'substance abuse disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D019966'}, {'text': 'quetiapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 531, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'C069541'}, {'text': 'agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 591, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'aggressiveness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 684, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D010554'}, {'text': 'personality disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 702, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D010554'}, {'text': 'manic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 741, 'end': 746, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 757, 'end': 766, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'quetiapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 832, 'end': 842, 'mesh': 'C069541'}, {'text': 'agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 886, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'agitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 925, 'end': 934, 'mesh': 'D011595'}, {'text': 'quetiapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 951, 'end': 961, 'mesh': 'C069541'}]" +1045,24587916,Antioxidant effects of bovine lactoferrin on dexamethasone-induced hypertension in rat.,"Dexamethasone- (Dex-) induced hypertension is associated with enhanced oxidative stress. Lactoferrin (LF) is an iron-binding glycoprotein with antihypertensive properties. In this study, we investigated the effect of chronic administration of LF on oxidative stress and hypertension upon Dex administration. Male Wistar rats were treated by Dex (30 u g/kg/day subcutaneously) or saline for 14 days. Oral bovine LF (30, 100, 300 mg/kg) was given from day 8 to 14 in a reversal study. In a prevention study, rats received 4 days of LF treatment followed by Dex and continued during the test period. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) was measured using tail-cuff method. Thymus weight was used as a marker of glucocorticoid activity. Plasma hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentration and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) value were determined. Dexamethasone significantly increased SBP and plasma H2O2 level and decreased thymus and body weights. LF lowered (P < 0.01) and dose dependently prevented (P < 0.001) Dex-induced hypertension. LF prevented body weight loss and significantly reduced the elevated plasma H2O2 and increased FRAP values. Chronic administration of LF strongly reduced the blood pressure and production of ROS and improved antioxidant capacity in Dex-induced hypertension, suggesting the role of inhibition of oxidative stress as another mechanism of antihypertensive action of LF.","[{'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 45, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 67, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 88, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 104, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 130, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'iron', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 200, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'D007501'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 358, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 376, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 429, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 644, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hydrogen peroxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D006861'}, {'text': 'H2O2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 842, 'end': 846, 'mesh': 'D006861'}, {'text': 'Dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 930, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'H2O2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 983, 'end': 987, 'mesh': 'D006861'}, {'text': 'Dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1098, 'end': 1101, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1122, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'weight loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1153, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'H2O2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1204, 'mesh': 'D006861'}, {'text': 'Dex', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1356, 'end': 1359, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1380, 'mesh': 'D006973'}]" +1046,24588023,The association between tranexamic acid and convulsive seizures after cardiac surgery: a multivariate analysis in 11 529 patients.,"Because of a lack of contemporary data regarding seizures after cardiac surgery, we undertook a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from 11 529 patients in whom cardiopulmonary bypass was used from January 2004 to December 2010. A convulsive seizure was defined as a transient episode of disturbed brain function characterised by abnormal involuntary motor movements. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of postoperative seizures. A total of 100 (0.9%) patients developed postoperative convulsive seizures. Generalised and focal seizures were identified in 68 and 32 patients, respectively. The median (IQR [range]) time after surgery when the seizure occurred was 7 (6-12 [1-216]) h and 8 (6-11 [4-18]) h, respectively. Epileptiform findings on electroencephalography were seen in 19 patients. Independent predictors of postoperative seizures included age, female sex, redo cardiac surgery, calcification of ascending aorta, congestive heart failure, deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, duration of aortic cross-clamp and tranexamic acid. When tested in a multivariate regression analysis, tranexamic acid was a strong independent predictor of seizures (OR 14.3, 95% CI 5.5-36.7; p < 0.001). Patients with convulsive seizures had 2.5 times higher in-hospital mortality rates and twice the length of hospital stay compared with patients without convulsive seizures. Mean (IQR [range]) length of stay in the intensive care unit was 115 (49-228 [32-481]) h in patients with convulsive seizures compared with 26 (22-69 [14-1080]) h in patients without seizures (p < 0.001). Convulsive seizures are a serious postoperative complication after cardiac surgery. As tranexamic acid is the only modifiable factor, its administration, particularly in doses exceeding 80 mg.kg(-1), should be weighed against the risk of postoperative seizures.","[{'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 63, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 180, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 381, 'end': 391, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 392, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'abnormal involuntary motor movements', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 617, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 682, 'end': 692, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 693, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Generalised and focal seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 703, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 840, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'congestive heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'hypothermic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1164, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1220, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1288, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1404, 'end': 1414, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1415, 'end': 1423, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1542, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1553, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1669, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1680, 'end': 1688, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1746, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1768, 'end': 1778, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1779, 'end': 1787, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'postoperative complication', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1802, 'end': 1828, 'mesh': 'D011183'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1855, 'end': 1870, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2020, 'end': 2028, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +1047,24595967,Dysfunctional overnight memory consolidation in ecstasy users.,"Sleep plays an important role in the consolidation and integration of memory in a process called overnight memory consolidation. Previous studies indicate that ecstasy users have marked and persistent neurocognitive and sleep-related impairments. We extend past research by examining overnight memory consolidation among regular ecstasy users (n=12) and drug naive healthy controls (n=26). Memory recall of word pairs was evaluated before and after a period of sleep, with and without interference prior to testing. In addition, we assessed neurocognitive performances across tasks of learning, memory and executive functioning. Ecstasy users demonstrated impaired overnight memory consolidation, a finding that was more pronounced following associative interference. Additionally, ecstasy users demonstrated impairments on tasks recruiting frontostriatal and hippocampal neural circuitry, in the domains of proactive interference memory, long-term memory, encoding, working memory and complex planning. We suggest that ecstasy-associated dysfunction in fronto-temporal circuitry may underlie overnight consolidation memory impairments in regular ecstasy users.","[{'text': 'Dysfunctional overnight memory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'sleep-related impairments', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 283, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D012893'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 392, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'Ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 692, 'end': 699, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'impaired overnight memory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 719, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 845, 'end': 852, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1083, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'memory impairments', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D018817'}]" +1048,24614773,Normoammonemic encephalopathy: solely valproate induced or multiple mechanisms?,"A 77-year-old woman presented with subacute onset progressive confusion, aggression, auditory hallucinations and delusions.

CCNU was administered per os (PO) at a targeted dosage of 60 mg/m(2) body surface area on day 0, CTX was administered PO at a targeted dosage of 250 mg/m(2) divided over days 0 through 4, and all dogs received prophylactic antibiotics. Ninety treatments were given to the 57 dogs included in the study. Neutropenia was the principal toxic effect, and the overall frequency of grade 4 neutropenia after the first treatment of CCNU/CTX was 30% (95% confidence interval, 19-43%). The mean body weight of dogs with grade 4 neutropenia (19.7 kg + 13.4 kg) was significantly less than the mean body weight of dogs that did not develop grade 4 neutropenia (31.7 kg + 12.4 kg; P = .005). One dog (3%) developed hematologic changes suggestive of hepatotoxicity. No dogs had evidence of either renal toxicity or hemorrhagic cystitis. Adverse gastrointestinal effects were uncommon. On the basis of the findings reported herein, a dose of 60 mg/m(2) of CCNU combined with 250 mg/m(2) of CTX (divided over 5 days) q 4 wk is tolerable in tumor-bearing dogs.","[{'text': 'lomustine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D008130'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 46, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 76, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 121, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'lomustine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D008130'}, {'text': 'CCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D008130'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 181, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 199, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'CCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 227, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D008130'}, {'text': 'CTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'Neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 530, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 611, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'CCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D008130'}, {'text': 'CTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 657, 'end': 660, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 746, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 864, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 964, 'end': 978, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'renal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1169, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D008130'}, {'text': 'CTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1203, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1257, 'mesh': 'D009369'}]" +1054,24664478,Nelarabine neurotoxicity with concurrent intrathecal chemotherapy: Case report and review of literature.,"Severe nelarabine neurotoxicity in a patient who received concurrent intrathecal (IT) chemotherapy is reported. A 37-year-old Caucasian woman with a history of T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma was admitted for relapsed disease. She was originally treated with induction chemotherapy followed by an autologous transplant. She developed relapsed disease 10 months later with leukemic involvement. She was re-induced with nelarabine 1500 mg/m(2) on days 1, 3, and 5 with 1 dose of IT cytarabine 100 mg on day 2 as central nervous system (CNS) prophylaxis. At the time of treatment, she was on continuous renal replacement therapy due to sequelae of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). She tolerated therapy well, entered a complete remission, and recovered her renal function. She received a second cycle of nelarabine without additional IT prophylaxis one month later. A week after this second cycle, she noted numbness in her lower extremities. Predominantly sensory, though also motor and autonomic, peripheral neuropathy started in her feet, ascended proximally to the mid-thoracic region, and eventually included her distal upper extremities. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of her spine demonstrated changes from C2 to C6 consistent with subacute combined degeneration. Nelarabine was felt to be the cause of her symptoms. Her neuropathy stabilized and showed slight improvement and ultimately received an unrelated, reduced-intensity allogeneic transplant while in complete remission, but relapsed disease 10 weeks later. She is currently being treated with best supportive care. To our knowledge, this is the first published case report of severe neurotoxicity caused by nelarabine in a patient who received concurrent IT chemotherapy.","[{'text': 'Nelarabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'C104457'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 11, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'nelarabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 112, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'C104457'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 123, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D054218'}, {'text': 'leukemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D007938'}, {'text': 'nelarabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 521, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'C104457'}, {'text': 'cytarabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 583, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'tumor lysis syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 748, 'end': 768, 'mesh': 'D015275'}, {'text': 'TLS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 770, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D015275'}, {'text': 'nelarabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 899, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'C104457'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'Nelarabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1370, 'end': 1380, 'mesh': 'C104457'}, {'text': 'neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1427, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1762, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'nelarabine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1773, 'end': 1783, 'mesh': 'C104457'}]" +1055,24665854,Valproate-induced hyperammonemic encephalopathy in a renal transplanted patient.,"Neurological complications after renal transplantation constitute an important cause of morbidity and mortality.

In this study, we have utilized a rat model of progressive doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiomyopathy, applying multiple approaches, including cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to provide the most comprehensive characterization to date of the timecourse of serological, pathological, and functional events underlying this toxicity. Hannover Wistar rats were dosed with 1.25 mg/kg DOX weekly for 8 weeks followed by a 4 week off-dosing ""recovery"" period. Electron microscopy of the myocardium revealed subcellular degeneration and marked mitochondrial changes after a single dose. Histopathological analysis revealed progressive cardiomyocyte degeneration, hypertrophy/cytomegaly, and extensive vacuolation after two doses. Extensive replacement fibrosis (quantified by Sirius red staining) developed during the off-dosing period. Functional indices assessed by cardiac MRI (including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), cardiac output, and E/A ratio) declined progressively, reaching statistical significance after two doses and culminating in ""clinical"" LV dysfunction by 12 weeks. Significant increases in peak myocardial contrast enhancement and serological cardiac troponin I (cTnI) emerged after eight doses, importantly preceding the LVEF decline to <50%. Troponin I levels positively correlated with delayed and peak gadolinium contrast enhancement, histopathological grading, and diastolic dysfunction. In summary, subcellular cardiomyocyte degeneration was the earliest marker, followed by progressive functional decline and histopathological manifestations. Myocardial contrast enhancement and elevations in cTnI occurred later.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the reproducibility of these models. Twenty healthy male volunteers (mean age 24 years; range 18-38 years) received intradermal injections of glutamate and capsaicin in the volar forearm. Magnitudes of secondary pinprick hyperalgesia and brush-evoked allodynia were investigated using von Frey filaments (gauges 10, 15, 60 and 100 g) and brush strokes. Areas of secondary hyperalgesia and allodynia were quantified immediately after injection and after 15, 30 and 60 min. Two identical experiments separated by at least 7 days were performed. Reproducibility across and within volunteers (inter- and intra-individual variation, respectively) was assessed using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and coefficient of variation (CV). Secondary pinprick hyperalgesia was observed as a marked increase in the visual analogue scale (VAS) response to von Frey gauges 60 and 100 g (P < 0.001) after glutamate injection. For capsaicin, secondary pinprick hyperalgesia was detected with all von Frey gauges (P < 0.001). Glutamate evoked reproducible VAS response to all von Frey gauges (ICC > 0.60) and brush strokes (ICC > 0.83). Capsaicin injection was reproducible for secondary hyperalgesia (ICC > 0.70) and allodynia (ICC > 0.71). Intra-individual variability was generally lower for the VAS response to von Frey and brush compared with areas of secondary hyperalgesia and allodynia. In conclusion, glutamate and capsaicin yield reproducible hyperalgesic and allodynic responses, and the present model is well suited for basic research, as well as for assessing the modulation of central phenomena.","[{'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 99, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 116, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 153, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 167, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 221, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 241, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 258, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'pain disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 303, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'D013001'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 509, 'end': 518, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 523, 'end': 532, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 588, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 618, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 729, 'end': 751, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 756, 'end': 765, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1123, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1264, 'end': 1273, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1331, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'Glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1383, 'end': 1392, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'Capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1494, 'end': 1503, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1557, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1575, 'end': 1584, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'secondary hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1714, 'end': 1736, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1741, 'end': 1750, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1767, 'end': 1776, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1781, 'end': 1790, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1810, 'end': 1822, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'allodynic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1827, 'end': 1836, 'mesh': 'D006930'}]" +1059,24691439,Ocular-specific ER stress reduction rescues glaucoma in murine glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma.,"Administration of glucocorticoids induces ocular hypertension in some patients. If untreated, these patients can develop a secondary glaucoma that resembles primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). The underlying pathology of glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma is not fully understood, due in part to lack of an appropriate animal model. Here, we developed a murine model of glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma that exhibits glaucoma features that are observed in patients. Treatment of WT mice with topical ocular 0.1% dexamethasone led to elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP), functional and structural loss of retinal ganglion cells, and axonal degeneration, resembling glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma in human patients. Furthermore, dexamethasone-induced ocular hypertension was associated with chronic ER stress of the trabecular meshwork (TM). Similar to patients, withdrawal of dexamethasone treatment reduced elevated IOP and ER stress in this animal model. Dexamethasone induced the transcriptional factor CHOP, a marker for chronic ER stress, in the anterior segment tissues, and Chop deletion reduced ER stress in these tissues and prevented dexamethasone-induced ocular hypertension. Furthermore, reduction of ER stress in the TM with sodium 4-phenylbutyrate prevented dexamethasone-induced ocular hypertension in WT mice. Our data indicate that ER stress contributes to glucocorticoid-induced ocular hypertension and suggest that reducing ER stress has potential as a therapeutic strategy for treating glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma.","[{'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 86, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 229, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'primary open-angle glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 253, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'C562750'}, {'text': 'POAG', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 282, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'C562750'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 340, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 486, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 509, 'end': 517, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'retinal ganglion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 700, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D012173'}, {'text': 'axonal degeneration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 728, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 783, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D005901'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 824, 'end': 837, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 846, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 985, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'Dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1240, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1262, 'end': 1281, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'sodium 4-phenylbutyrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1357, 'mesh': 'C075773'}, {'text': 'dexamethasone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1381, 'mesh': 'D003907'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1409, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1493, 'end': 1512, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'glaucoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1633, 'mesh': 'D005901'}]" +1060,24709919,Effects of ginsenosides on opioid-induced hyperalgesia in mice.,"Opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH) is characterized by nociceptive sensitization caused by the cessation of chronic opioid use. OIH can limit the clinical use of opioid analgesics and complicate withdrawal from opioid addiction. In this study, we investigated the effects of Re, Rg1, and Rb1 ginsenosides, the bioactive components of ginseng, on OIH. OIH was achieved in mice after subcutaneous administration of morphine for 7 consecutive days three times per day. During withdrawal (days 8 and 9), these mice were administered Re, Rg1, or Rb1 intragastrically two times per day. On the test day (day 10), mice were subjected to the thermal sensitivity test and the acetic acid-induced writhing test. Re (300 mg/kg) inhibited OIH in both the thermal sensitivity test and the acetic acid-induced writhing test. However, the Rg1 and Rb1 ginsenosides failed to prevent OIH in either test. Furthermore, Rg1 showed a tendency to aggravate OIH in the acetic acid-induced writhing test. Our data suggested that the ginsenoside Re, but not Rg1 or Rb1, may contribute toward reversal of OIH.","[{'text': 'ginsenosides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D036145'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 79, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 93, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 191, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'opioid addiction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 274, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D009293'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 409, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 414, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 476, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Re', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'C049864'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 596, 'end': 599, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'Rb1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'C442759'}, {'text': 'acetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 730, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D019342'}, {'text': 'Re', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 765, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'C049864'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 790, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'acetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D019342'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 930, 'end': 933, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 998, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'acetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1020, 'mesh': 'D019342'}, {'text': 'ginsenoside Re', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1072, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'C049864'}, {'text': 'Rg1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'C035054'}, {'text': 'Rb1', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'C442759'}, {'text': 'OIH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1142, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D006930'}]" +1061,24717468,A comparison of severe hemodynamic disturbances between dexmedetomidine and propofol for sedation in neurocritical care patients.,"OBJECTIVE: Dexmedetomidine and propofol are commonly used sedatives in neurocritical care as they allow for frequent neurologic examinations. However, both agents are associated with significant hemodynamic side effects. The primary objective of this study is to compare the prevalence of severe hemodynamic effects in neurocritical care patients receiving dexmedetomidine and propofol. DESIGN: Multicenter, retrospective, propensity-matched cohort study. SETTING: Neurocritical care units at two academic medical centers with dedicated neurocritical care teams and board-certified neurointensivists. PATIENTS: Neurocritical care patients admitted between July 2009 and September 2012 were evaluated and then matched 1:1 based on propensity scoring of baseline characteristics. INTERVENTIONS: Continuous sedation with dexmedetomidine or propofol. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: A total of 342 patients (105 dexmedetomidine and 237 propofol) were included in the analysis, with 190 matched (95 in each group) by propensity score. The primary outcome of this study was a composite of severe hypotension (mean arterial pressure < 60 mm Hg) and bradycardia (heart rate < 50 beats/min) during sedative infusion. No difference in the primary composite outcome in both the unmatched (30% vs 30%, p = 0.94) or matched cohorts (28% vs 34%, p = 0.35) could be found. When analyzed separately, no differences could be found in the prevalence of severe hypotension or bradycardia in either the unmatched or matched cohorts. CONCLUSIONS: Severe hypotension and bradycardia occur at similar prevalence in neurocritical care patients who receive dexmedetomidine or propofol. Providers should similarly consider the likelihood of hypotension or bradycardia before starting either sedative.","[{'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 76, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'Dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 141, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 161, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 507, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 948, 'end': 963, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 967, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1037, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1230, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1282, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1571, 'end': 1582, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1586, 'end': 1597, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1662, 'end': 1673, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1678, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'dexmedetomidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1761, 'end': 1776, 'mesh': 'D020927'}, {'text': 'propofol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1788, 'mesh': 'D015742'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1844, 'end': 1855, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1859, 'end': 1870, 'mesh': 'D001919'}]" +1062,24727461,Hydroxytyrosol ameliorates oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in rats with breast cancer.,"Oxidative stress is involved in several processes including cancer, aging and cardiovascular disease, and has been shown to potentiate the therapeutic effect of drugs such as doxorubicin. Doxorubicin causes significant cardiotoxicity characterized by marked increases in oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Herein, we investigate whether doxorubicin-associated chronic cardiac toxicity can be ameliorated with the antioxidant hydroxytyrosol in rats with breast cancer. Thirty-six rats bearing breast tumors induced chemically were divided into 4 groups: control, hydroxytyrosol (0.5mg/kg, 5days/week), doxorubicin (1mg/kg/week), and doxorubicin plus hydroxytyrosol. Cardiac disturbances at the cellular and mitochondrial level, mitochondrial electron transport chain complexes I-IV and apoptosis-inducing factor, and oxidative stress markers have been analyzed. Hydroxytyrosol improved the cardiac disturbances enhanced by doxorubicin by significantly reducing the percentage of altered mitochondria and oxidative damage. These results suggest that hydroxytyrosol improve the mitochondrial electron transport chain. This study demonstrates that hydroxytyrosol protect rat heart damage provoked by doxorubicin decreasing oxidative damage and mitochondrial alterations.","[{'text': 'Hydroxytyrosol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'C005975'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 48, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 77, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 97, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 200, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 218, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 315, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 328, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 359, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 432, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 490, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 521, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'hydroxytyrosol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 578, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'C005975'}, {'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 606, 'end': 619, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'breast tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 645, 'end': 658, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'hydroxytyrosol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 715, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'C005975'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 765, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 785, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'hydroxytyrosol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 802, 'end': 816, 'mesh': 'C005975'}, {'text': 'Cardiac disturbances', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 818, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'Hydroxytyrosol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'C005975'}, {'text': 'cardiac disturbances', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1042, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1075, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'hydroxytyrosol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'C005975'}, {'text': 'hydroxytyrosol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1311, 'mesh': 'C005975'}, {'text': 'heart damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1336, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D004317'}]" +1063,24729111,Amiodarone-induced myxoedema coma.,"A 62-year-old man was found to have bradycardia, hypothermia and respiratory failure 3 weeks after initiation of amiodarone therapy for atrial fibrillation.

SUMMARY: A 63-year-old Caucasian man with renal amyloidosis undergoing peripheral blood stem cell collection for an autologous stem cell transplant developed extensive bilateral upper-extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism secondary to heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. A continuous i.v. infusion of argatroban was initiated, and the patient was managed on the general medical floor. After one week of therapy, he was transferred to the intensive care unit with cardiopulmonary compromise related to superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome. A percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy and CDT with alteplase were attempted, but the procedure was aborted due to epistaxis. The epistaxis resolved the next day, and the patient was restarted on argatroban. A second percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy was performed six days later and resulted in partial revascularization of the SVC and central veins. Postthrombectomy continuous CDT with alteplase was commenced while argatroban was withheld, and complete patency of the SVC and central veins was achieved after three days of therapy.

Although the patient recovered, he experienced permanent vision and hearing loss, as well as end-stage renal disease.

METHODS: Seventy Swiss albino female mice (25-35 g) were divided into 4 groups: amphetamine-free (control), amphetamine, 50, and 100 mg/kg DHEA. The DHEA was administered intraperitoneally (ip) for 5 days. Amphetamine (3 mg/kg ip) induced hyper locomotion, apomorphine (1.5 mg/kg subcutaneously [sc]) induced climbing, and haloperidol (1.5 mg/kg sc) induced catalepsy tests were used as animal models of schizophrenia. The study was conducted at the Animal Experiment Laboratories, Department of Pharmacology, Medical School, Eskisehir Osmangazi University, Eskisehir, Turkey between March and May 2012. Statistical analysis was carried out using Kruskal-Wallis test for hyper locomotion, and one-way ANOVA for climbing and catalepsy tests. RESULTS: In the amphetamine-induced locomotion test, there were significant increases in all movements compared with the amphetamine-free group. Both DHEA 50 mg/kg (p<0.05), and 100 mg/kg (p<0.01) significantly decreased all movements compared with the amphetamine-induced locomotion group. There was a significant difference between groups in the haloperidol-induced catalepsy test (p<0.05). There was no significant difference between groups in terms of total climbing time in the apomorphine-induced climbing test (p>0.05). CONCLUSION: We observed that DHEA reduced locomotor activity and increased catalepsy at both doses, while it had no effect on climbing behavior. We suggest that DHEA displays typical neuroleptic-like effects, and may be used in the treatment of schizophrenia.","[{'text': 'dehydroepiandrosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 37, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'dehydroepiandrosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 124, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'DHEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 148, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 297, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'DHEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 328, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'DHEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 338, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'Amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 395, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'hyper', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 428, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 547, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 593, 'end': 606, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'hyper', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 860, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 946, 'end': 957, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'DHEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1194, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1307, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1424, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'DHEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1486, 'end': 1490, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1532, 'end': 1541, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'DHEA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1618, 'end': 1622, 'mesh': 'D003687'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1702, 'end': 1715, 'mesh': 'D012559'}]" +1066,24742750,Availability of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes in assessment of drug potential for QT prolongation.,"Field potential duration (FPD) in human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPS-CMs), which can express QT interval in an electrocardiogram, is reported to be a useful tool to predict K(+) channel and Ca(2+) channel blocker effects on QT interval. However, there is no report showing that this technique can be used to predict multichannel blocker potential for QT prolongation. The aim of this study is to show that FPD from MEA (Multielectrode array) of hiPS-CMs can detect QT prolongation induced by multichannel blockers. hiPS-CMs were seeded onto MEA and FPD was measured for 2min every 10min for 30min after drug exposure for the vehicle and each drug concentration. IKr and IKs blockers concentration-dependently prolonged corrected FPD (FPDc), whereas Ca(2+) channel blockers concentration-dependently shortened FPDc. Also, the multichannel blockers Amiodarone, Paroxetine, Terfenadine and Citalopram prolonged FPDc in a concentration dependent manner. Finally, the IKr blockers, Terfenadine and Citalopram, which are reported to cause Torsade de Pointes (TdP) in clinical practice, produced early afterdepolarization (EAD). hiPS-CMs using MEA system and FPDc can predict the effects of drug candidates on QT interval. This study also shows that this assay can help detect EAD for drugs with TdP potential.","[{'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 509, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 623, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1005, 'end': 1015, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'Paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1017, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'Terfenadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1029, 'end': 1040, 'mesh': 'D016593'}, {'text': 'Citalopram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1045, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D015283'}, {'text': 'Terfenadine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D016593'}, {'text': 'Citalopram', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1161, 'mesh': 'D015283'}, {'text': 'Torsade de Pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1209, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1447, 'end': 1450, 'mesh': 'D016171'}]" +1067,24753331,Dermal developmental toxicity of N-phenylimide herbicides in rats.,"BACKGROUND: S-53482 and S-23121 are N-phenylimide herbicides and produced embryolethality, teratogenicity (mainly ventricular septal defects and wavy ribs), and growth retardation in rats in conventional oral developmental toxicity studies. Our objective in this study was to investigate whether the compounds induce developmental toxicity via the dermal route, which is more relevant to occupational exposure, hence better addressing human health risks. METHODS: S-53482 was administered dermally to rats at 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg during organogenesis, and S-23121 was administered at 200, 400, and 800 mg/kg (the maximum applicable dose level). Fetuses were obtained by a Cesarean section and examined for external, visceral, and skeletal alterations. RESULTS: Dermal exposure of rats to S-53482 at 300 mg/kg produced patterns of developmental toxicity similar to those resulting from oral exposure. Toxicity included embryolethality, teratogenicity, and growth retardation. Dermal administration of S-23121 at 800 mg/kg resulted in an increased incidence of embryonic death and ventricular septal defect, but retarded fetal growth was not observed as it was following oral exposure to S-23121. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results, S-53482 and S-23121 were teratogenic when administered dermally to pregnant rats as were the compounds administered orally. Thus, investigation of the mechanism and its human relevancy become more important.","[{'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 21, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'S-53482', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'C106487'}, {'text': 'S-23121', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'C083440'}, {'text': 'embryolethality', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D020964'}, {'text': 'teratogenicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D064793'}, {'text': 'ventricular septal defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 181, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'growth retardation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 228, 'end': 246, 'mesh': 'D005317'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 290, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 398, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'S-53482', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 531, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'C106487'}, {'text': 'S-23121', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 625, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'C083440'}, {'text': 'S-53482', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 864, 'mesh': 'C106487'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 921, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 969, 'end': 977, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'embryolethality', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 987, 'end': 1002, 'mesh': 'D020964'}, {'text': 'teratogenicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1018, 'mesh': 'D064793'}, {'text': 'growth retardation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D005317'}, {'text': 'S-23121', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1076, 'mesh': 'C083440'}, {'text': 'embryonic death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1128, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D020964'}, {'text': 'ventricular septal defect', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D006345'}, {'text': 'S-23121', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'C083440'}, {'text': 'S-53482', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'C106487'}, {'text': 'S-23121', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1311, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'C083440'}, {'text': 'teratogenic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1335, 'mesh': 'D064793'}]" +1068,24778426,Rates of Renal Toxicity in Cancer Patients Receiving Cisplatin With and Without Mannitol.,"BACKGROUND: Cisplatin is a widely used antineoplastic. One of the major complications of cisplatin use is dose-limiting nephrotoxicity. There are many strategies to prevent this toxicity, including the use of mannitol as a nephroprotectant in combination with hydration. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to evaluate the rates of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in cancer patients receiving single-agent cisplatin with and without mannitol. METHODS: This single-center retrospective analysis was a quasi experiment created by the national mannitol shortage. Data were collected on adult cancer patients receiving single-agent cisplatin as an outpatient from January 2011 to September 2012. The primary outcome was acute kidney injury (AKI). RESULTS: We evaluated 143 patients who received single-agent cisplatin; 97.2% of patients had head and neck cancer as their primary malignancy. Patients who did not receive mannitol were more likely to develop nephrotoxicity: odds ratio [OR] = 2.646 (95% CI = 1.008, 6.944; P = 0.048). Patients who received the 100 mg/m(2) dosing and patients who had a history of hypertension also had a higher likelihood of developing nephrotoxicity: OR = 11.494 (95% CI = 4.149, 32.258; P < 0.0001) and OR = 3.219 (95% CI = 1.228, 8.439; P = 0.017), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: When limited quantities of mannitol are available, it should preferentially be given to patients at particularly high risk of nephrotoxicity. Our analysis suggests that those patients receiving the dosing schedule of 100 mg/m(2) cisplatin every 3 weeks and those with hypertension are at the greatest risk of nephrotoxicity and would benefit from the addition of mannitol.","[{'text': 'Renal Toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 9, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'Cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 53, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'Mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'Cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 268, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 299, 'end': 307, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 406, 'end': 415, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 424, 'end': 438, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 442, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 481, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 508, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 616, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 664, 'end': 670, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 703, 'end': 712, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'acute kidney injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 791, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'AKI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 812, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 879, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'head and neck cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 912, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D006258'}, {'text': 'malignancy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 950, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 991, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1239, 'end': 1253, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1417, 'mesh': 'D008353'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1508, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1611, 'end': 1620, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1650, 'end': 1662, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1691, 'end': 1705, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'mannitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1745, 'end': 1753, 'mesh': 'D008353'}]" +1069,24802403,"Metformin protects against seizures, learning and memory impairments and oxidative damage induced by pentylenetetrazole-induced kindling in mice.","Cognitive impairment, the most common and severe comorbidity of epilepsy, greatly diminishes the quality of life. However, current therapeutic interventions for epilepsy can also cause untoward cognitive effects. Thus, there is an urgent need for new kinds of agents targeting both seizures and cognition deficits. Oxidative stress is considered to play an important role in epileptogenesis and cognitive deficits, and antioxidants have a putative antiepileptic potential. Metformin, the most commonly prescribed antidiabetic oral drug, has antioxidant properties. This study was designed to evaluate the ameliorative effects of metformin on seizures, cognitive impairment and brain oxidative stress markers observed in pentylenetetrazole-induced kindling animals. Male C57BL/6 mice were administered with subconvulsive dose of pentylenetetrazole (37 mg/kg, i.p.) every other day for 14 injections. Metformin was injected intraperitoneally in dose of 200mg/kg along with alternate-day PTZ. We found that metformin suppressed the progression of kindling, ameliorated the cognitive impairment and decreased brain oxidative stress.

Children are particularly sensitive to DOX-induced heart failure. Here, the impact of p53 inhibition on acute vs. late-stage DOX cardiotoxicity was examined in a juvenile model. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two-week-old MHC-CB7 mice (which express dominant-interfering p53 in cardiomyocytes) and their non-transgenic (NON-TXG) littermates received weekly DOX injections for 5 weeks (25 mg/kg cumulative dose). One week after the last DOX treatment (acute stage), MHC-CB7 mice exhibited improved cardiac function and lower levels of cardiomyocyte apoptosis when compared with the NON-TXG mice. Surprisingly, by 13 weeks following the last DOX treatment (late stage), MHC-CB7 exhibited a progressive decrease in cardiac function and higher rates of cardiomyocyte apoptosis when compared with NON-TXG mice. p53 inhibition blocked transient DOX-induced STAT3 activation in MHC-CB7 mice, which was associated with enhanced induction of the DNA repair proteins Ku70 and Ku80. Mice with cardiomyocyte-restricted deletion of STAT3 exhibited worse cardiac function, higher levels of cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and a greater induction of Ku70 and Ku80 in response to DOX treatment during the acute stage when compared with control animals. CONCLUSION: These data support a model wherein a p53-dependent cardioprotective pathway, mediated via STAT3 activation, mitigates DOX-induced myocardial stress during drug delivery. Furthermore, these data suggest an explanation as to how p53 inhibition can result in cardioprotection during drug treatment and, paradoxically, enhanced cardiotoxicity long after the cessation of drug treatment.","[{'text': 'anthracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D018943'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 52, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 113, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 182, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 237, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 249, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 323, 'end': 326, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 327, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 624, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 828, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1030, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1548, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1754, 'end': 1768, 'mesh': 'D066126'}]" +1071,24816962,Metronidazole-induced encephalopathy: an uncommon scenario.,Metronidazole can produce neurological complications although it is not a common scenario.

Emerging evidence indicates that voltage-dependent Na(+) channels have pivotal roles in the cardiotoxicity of aconitine. However, no reports are available on the role of Ca(2+) in aconitine poisoning. In this study, we explored the importance of pathological Ca(2+) signaling in aconitine poisoning in vitro and in vivo. We found that Ca(2+) overload lead to accelerated beating rhythm in adult rat ventricular myocytes and caused arrhythmia in conscious freely moving rats. To investigate effects of aconitine on myocardial injury, we performed cytotoxicity assay in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs), as well as measured lactate dehydrogenase level in the culture medium of NRVMs and activities of serum cardiac enzymes in rats. The results showed that aconitine resulted in myocardial injury and reduced NRVMs viability dose-dependently. To confirm the pro-apoptotic effects, we performed flow cytometric detection, cardiac histology, transmission electron microscopy and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay. The results showed that aconitine stimulated apoptosis time-dependently. The expression analysis of Ca(2+) handling proteins demonstrated that aconitine promoted Ca(2+) overload through the expression regulation of Ca(2+) handling proteins. The expression analysis of apoptosis-related proteins revealed that pro-apoptotic protein expression was upregulated, and anti-apoptotic protein BCL-2 expression was downregulated. Furthermore, increased phosphorylation of MAPK family members, especially the P-P38/P38 ratio was found in cardiac tissues. Hence, our results suggest that aconitine significantly aggravates Ca(2+) overload and causes arrhythmia and finally promotes apoptotic development via phosphorylation of P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase.","[{'text': 'Aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'Aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 117, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 277, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 316, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 334, 'end': 343, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 414, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D011041'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 483, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 503, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 513, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'D011041'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 561, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 655, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 725, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'myocardial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 738, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'cytotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 770, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'lactate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 855, 'end': 862, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 987, 'end': 996, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'myocardial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'dUTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1258, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'biotin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1259, 'end': 1265, 'mesh': 'D001710'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1315, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1434, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1453, 'end': 1455, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1508, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1869, 'end': 1878, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1904, 'end': 1906, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1931, 'end': 1941, 'mesh': 'D001145'}]" +1073,24842192,Chronic treatment with metformin suppresses toll-like receptor 4 signaling and attenuates left ventricular dysfunction following myocardial infarction.,"Acute treatment with metformin has a protective effect in myocardial infarction by suppression of inflammatory responses due to activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). In the present study, the effect of chronic pre-treatment with metformin on cardiac dysfunction and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) activities following myocardial infarction and their relation with AMPK were assessed. Male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to one of 5 groups (n=6): normal control and groups were injected isoproterenol after chronic pre-treatment with 0, 25, 50, or 100mg/kg of metformin twice daily for 14 days. Isoproterenol (100mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously on the 13th and 14th days to induce acute myocardial infarction. Isoproterenol alone decreased left ventricular systolic pressure and myocardial contractility indexed as LVdp/dtmax and LVdp/dtmin. The left ventricular dysfunction was significantly lower in the groups treated with 25 and 50mg/kg of metformin. Metfromin markedly lowered isoproterenol-induced elevation in the levels of TLR4 mRNA, myeloid differentiation protein 88 (MyD88), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the heart tissues. Similar changes were also seen in the serum levels of TNF-a and IL-6. However, the lower doses of 25 and 50mg/kg were more effective than 100mg/kg. Phosphorylated AMPKa (p-AMPK) in the myocardium was significantly elevated by 25mg/kg of metformin, slightly by 50mg/kg, but not by 100mg/kg. Chronic pre-treatment with metformin reduces post-myocardial infarction cardiac dysfunction and suppresses inflammatory responses, possibly through inhibition of TLR4 activities. This mechanism can be considered as a target to protect infarcted myocardium.","[{'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'left ventricular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 129, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'AMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 294, 'end': 297, 'mesh': 'D000667'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 407, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 725, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'Isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'acute myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 849, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'Isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 891, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'left ventricular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1150, 'end': 1163, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1259, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1260, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1575, 'end': 1584, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1655, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1678, 'end': 1699, 'mesh': 'D009203'}]" +1074,24881749,Neuroleptic malignant syndrome induced by combination therapy with tetrabenazine and tiapride in a Japanese patient with Huntington's disease at the terminal stage of recurrent breast cancer.,"We herein describe the case of an 81-year-old Japanese woman with neuroleptic malignant syndrome that occurred 36 days after the initiation of combination therapy with tiapride (75 mg/day) and tetrabenazine (12.5 mg/day) for Huntington's disease.

METHODS: Adult male Wistar rats were intracerebroventricularly (icv) infused with STZ (750 ug) on d 1 and d 3, and a passive avoidance task was assessed 2 weeks after the first injection of STZ. Castration surgery was performed in another group of rats, and the passive avoidance task was assessed 4 weeks after the operation. Testosterone (1 mg.kg(-1).d(-1), sc), the androgen receptor antagonist flutamide (10 mg.kg(-1).d(-1), ip), the estrogen receptor antagonist tamoxifen (1 mg.kg(-1).d(-1), ip) or the aromatase inhibitor letrozole (4 mg.kg(-1).d(-1), ip) were administered for 6 d after the first injection of STZ. RESULTS: STZ administration and castration markedly decreased both STL1 (the short memory) and STL2 (the long memory) in passive avoidance tests. Testosterone replacement almost restored the STL1 and STL2 in castrated rats, and significantly prolonged the STL1 and STL2 in STZ-treated rats. Administration of flutamide, letrozole or tamoxifen significantly impaired the memory in intact rats, and significantly attenuated the testosterone replacement in improving STZ- and castration-induced memory impairment. CONCLUSION: Testosterone administration ameliorates STZ- and castration-induced memory impairment in male Wistar rats.","[{'text': 'Testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 25, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 48, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 109, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 139, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 141, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 154, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 268, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 376, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'Testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'androgen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 555, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D000728'}, {'text': 'flutamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 584, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D005485'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 624, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 653, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'letrozole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 714, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'C067431'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 803, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 817, 'end': 820, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'Testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1081, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'flutamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D005485'}, {'text': 'letrozole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1128, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'C067431'}, {'text': 'tamoxifen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D013629'}, {'text': 'impaired the memory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1246, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1272, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1300, 'end': 1317, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'Testosterone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1331, 'end': 1343, 'mesh': 'D013739'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1371, 'end': 1374, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'memory impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1399, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D008569'}]" +1078,24911645,Behavioral and neurochemical studies in mice pretreated with garcinielliptone FC in pilocarpine-induced seizures.,"Garcinielliptone FC (GFC) isolated from hexanic fraction seed extract of species Platonia insignis Mart. It is widely used in folk medicine to treat skin diseases in both humans and animals as well as the seed decoction has been used to treat diarrheas and inflammatory diseases. However, there is no research on GFC effects in the central nervous system of rodents. The present study aimed to evaluate the GFC effects at doses of 25, 50 or 75 mg/kg on seizure parameters to determine their anticonvulsant activity and its effects on amino acid (r-aminobutyric acid (GABA), glutamine, aspartate and glutathione) levels as well as on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in mice hippocampus after seizures. GFC produced an increased latency to first seizure, at doses 25mg/kg (20.12 + 2.20 min), 50mg/kg (20.95 + 2.21 min) or 75 mg/kg (23.43 + 1.99 min) when compared with seized mice. In addition, GABA content of mice hippocampus treated with GFC75 plus P400 showed an increase of 46.90% when compared with seized mice. In aspartate, glutamine and glutamate levels detected a decrease of 5.21%, 13.55% and 21.80%, respectively in mice hippocampus treated with GFC75 plus P400 when compared with seized mice. Hippocampus mice treated with GFC75 plus P400 showed an increase in AChE activity (63.30%) when compared with seized mice. The results indicate that GFC can exert anticonvulsant activity and reduce the frequency of installation of pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus, as demonstrated by increase in latency to first seizure and decrease in mortality rate of animals. In conclusion, our data suggest that GFC may influence in epileptogenesis and promote anticonvulsant actions in pilocarpine model by modulating the GABA and glutamate contents and of AChE activity in seized mice hippocampus. This compound may be useful to produce neuronal protection and it can be considered as an anticonvulsant agent.","[{'text': 'garcinielliptone FC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 61, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 84, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 104, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Garcinielliptone FC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 114, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'GFC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 135, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'skin diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D012871'}, {'text': 'diarrheas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 357, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'inflammatory diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 371, 'end': 392, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'GFC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 427, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'GFC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 521, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 567, 'end': 574, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'amino acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 658, 'mesh': 'D000596'}, {'text': 'r-aminobutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 681, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'glutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 688, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 699, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 713, 'end': 724, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 810, 'end': 818, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'GFC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 863, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1012, 'end': 1016, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'glutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'GFC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1472, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1554, 'end': 1565, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1592, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1642, 'end': 1649, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'GFC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1730, 'end': 1733, 'mesh': 'C573355'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1805, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1841, 'end': 1845, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1850, 'end': 1859, 'mesh': 'D018698'}]" +1079,24923469,"Standard operating procedures for antibiotic therapy and the occurrence of acute kidney injury: a prospective, clinical, non-interventional, observational study.","INTRODUCTION: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 7% of hospitalized and 66% of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients. It increases mortality, hospital length of stay, and costs. The aim of this study was to investigate, whether there is an association between adherence to guidelines (standard operating procedures (SOP)) for potentially nephrotoxic antibiotics and the occurrence of AKI. METHODS: This study was carried out as a prospective, clinical, non-interventional, observational study. Data collection was performed over a total of 170 days in three ICUs at Charite - Universitaetsmedizin Berlin. A total of 675 patients were included; 163 of these had therapy with vancomycin, gentamicin, or tobramycin; were >18 years; and treated in the ICU for >24 hours. Patients with an adherence to SOP >70% were classified into the high adherence group (HAG) and patients with an adherence of <70% into the low adherence group (LAG). AKI was defined according to RIFLE criteria. Adherence to SOPs was evaluated by retrospective expert audit. Development of AKI was compared between groups with exact Chi2-test and multivariate logistic regression analysis (two-sided P <0.05). RESULTS: LAG consisted of 75 patients (46%) versus 88 HAG patients (54%). AKI occurred significantly more often in LAG with 36% versus 21% in HAG (P = 0.035). Basic characteristics were comparable, except an increased rate of soft tissue infections in LAG. Multivariate analysis revealed an odds ratio of 2.5-fold for LAG to develop AKI compared with HAG (95% confidence interval 1.195 to 5.124, P = 0.039). CONCLUSION: Low adherence to SOPs for potentially nephrotoxic antibiotics was associated with a higher occurrence of AKI. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Current Controlled Trials ISRCTN54598675.

The patient also received simvastatin. One month after starting the antiviral therapy, the patient was admitted to the hospital because he developed rhabdomyolysis. At admission simvastatin and all antiviral drugs were discontinued because toxicity due to a drug-drug interaction was suspected. The creatine kinase peaked at 62,246 IU/L and the patient was treated with intravenous normal saline. The patient's renal function remained unaffected. Fourteen days after hospitalization, creatine kinase level had returned to 230 IU/L and the patient was discharged. Telaprevir was considered the probable causative agent of an interaction with simvastatin according to the Drug Interaction Probability Scale. The interaction is due to inhibition of CYP3A4-mediated simvastatin clearance. Simvastatin plasma concentration increased 30 times in this patient and statin induced muscle toxicity is related to the concentration of the statin in blood. In conclusion, with this case we illustrate that telaprevir as well as statins are susceptible to clinical relevant drug-drug interactions.","[{'text': 'Rhabdomyolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 14, 'mesh': 'D012206'}, {'text': 'hepatitis C virus infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D006526'}, {'text': 'telaprevir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'C486464'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'hepatitis C virus infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 129, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D006526'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'pegylated interferon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 197, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'C417083'}, {'text': 'telaprevir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 222, 'end': 232, 'mesh': 'C486464'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 260, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'rhabdomyolysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D012206'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 412, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 474, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 533, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 718, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'Telaprevir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 797, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'C486464'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 875, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 996, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'Simvastatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1030, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'statin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1091, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'muscle toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'statin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1161, 'end': 1167, 'mesh': 'D019821'}, {'text': 'telaprevir', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'C486464'}, {'text': 'statins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1249, 'end': 1256, 'mesh': 'D019821'}]" +1081,24928523,"Combination of bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone (VTD) as a consolidation therapy after autologous stem cell transplantation for symptomatic multiple myeloma in Japanese patients.","Consolidation therapy for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) has been widely adopted to improve treatment response following autologous stem cell transplantation.

This study aimed to identify the molecular pathways and putative biomarkers of CsA-to-SRL conversion in a rat model. Four animal groups (n = 6) were tested during 9 weeks: control, CsA, SRL, and conversion (CsA for 3 weeks followed by SRL for 6 weeks). Classical and emergent serum, urinary, and kidney tissue (gene and protein expression) markers were assessed. Renal lesions were analyzed in hematoxylin and eosin, periodic acid-Schiff, and Masson's trichrome stains. SRL-treated rats presented proteinuria and NGAL (serum and urinary) as the best markers of renal impairment. Short CsA treatment presented slight or even absent kidney lesions and TGF-b, NF- kb, mTOR, PCNA, TP53, KIM-1, and CTGF as relevant gene and protein changes. Prolonged CsA exposure aggravated renal damage, without clear changes on the traditional markers, but with changes in serums TGF- b and IL-7, TBARs clearance, and kidney TGF-b and mTOR. Conversion to SRL prevented CsA-induced renal damage evolution (absent/mild grade lesions), while NGAL (serum versus urine) seems to be a feasible biomarker of CsA replacement to SRL.","[{'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 14, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cyclosporin A', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 195, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'sirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 203, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 214, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 291, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 303, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 467, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 574, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 595, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'Renal lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 751, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hematoxylin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 782, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D006416'}, {'text': 'eosin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 798, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D004801'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 858, 'end': 861, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 885, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'renal impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 949, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 973, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'kidney lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1171, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1328, 'mesh': 'D020123'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1342, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CsA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1471, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'SRL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1493, 'mesh': 'D020123'}]" +1083,24975837,Kinin B2 receptor deletion and blockage ameliorates cisplatin-induced acute renal injury.,"Cisplatin treatment has been adopted in some chemotherapies; however, this drug can induce acute kidney injury due its ability to negatively affect renal function, augment serum levels of creatinine and urea, increase the acute tubular necrosis score and up-regulate cytokines (e.g., IL-1b and TNF-a). The kinin B2 receptor has been associated with the inflammation process, as well as the regulation of cytokine expression, and its deletion resulted in an improvement in the diabetic nephropathy status. To examine the role of the kinin B2 receptor in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury, kinin B2 receptor knockout mice were challenged with cisplatin. Additionally, WT mice were treated with a B2 receptor antagonist after cisplatin administration. B2 receptor-deficient mice were less sensitive to this drug than the WT mice, as shown by reduced weight loss, better preservation of kidney function, down regulation of inflammatory cytokines and less acute tubular necrosis. Moreover, treatment with the kinin B2 receptor antagonist effectively reduced the levels of serum creatinine and blood urea after cisplatin administration. Thus, our data suggest that the kinin B2 receptor is involved in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury by mediating the necrotic process and the expression of inflammatory cytokines, thus resulting in declined renal function. These results highlight the kinin B2 receptor antagonist treatment in amelioration of nephrotoxicity induced by cisplatin therapy.","[{'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 52, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'acute renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'Cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'acute kidney injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 181, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 278, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 293, 'end': 297, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'acute tubular necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 312, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D007683'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 443, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 566, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 643, 'end': 652, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'acute kidney injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 661, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 817, 'end': 826, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'weight loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 941, 'end': 952, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'acute tubular necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1045, 'end': 1067, 'mesh': 'D007683'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1177, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1188, 'end': 1192, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1199, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1290, 'end': 1299, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'acute kidney injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1308, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'necrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1537, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1572, 'mesh': 'D002945'}]" +1084,24999722,Safety and efficacy of fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant (0.59 mg) in birdshot retinochoroidopathy.,"PURPOSE: To report the treatment outcomes of the fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant (0.59 mg) in patients with birdshot retinochoroidopathy whose disease is refractory or intolerant to conventional immunomodulatory therapy. METHODS: A retrospective case series involving 11 birdshot retinochoroidopathy patients (11 eyes). Eleven patients (11 eyes) underwent surgery for fluocinolone acetonide implant (0.59 mg). Treatment outcomes of interest were noted at baseline, before fluocinolone acetonide implant, and then at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, and beyond 3 years. Disease activity markers, including signs of ocular inflammation, evidence of retinal vasculitis, Swedish interactive threshold algorithm-short wavelength automated perimetry Humphrey visual field analysis, electroretinographic parameters, and optical coherence tomography were recorded. Data on occurrence of cataract and raised intraocular pressure were collected in all eyes. RESULTS: Intraocular inflammation was present in 54.5, 9.9, 11.1, and 0% of patients at baseline, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, and beyond 3 years after receiving the implant, respectively. Active vasculitis was noted in 36.3% patients at baseline and 0% at 3 years of follow-up. More than 20% (47.61-67.2%) reduction in central retinal thickness was noted in all patients with cystoid macular edema at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years postimplant. At baseline, 54.5% patients were on immunomodulatory agents. This percentage decreased to 45.45, 44.4, and 14.28% at 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years postimplant, respectively. Adverse events included increased intraocular pressure (54.5%) and cataract formation (100%). CONCLUSION: The data suggest that fluocinolone acetonide implant (0.59 mg) helps to control inflammation in otherwise treatment-refractory cases of birdshot retinochoroidopathy. It is associated with significant side effects of cataract and ocular hypertension requiring treatment.","[{'text': 'fluocinolone acetonide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D005446'}, {'text': 'birdshot retinochoroidopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 80, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'C537630'}, {'text': 'fluocinolone acetonide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 159, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D005446'}, {'text': 'birdshot retinochoroidopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 230, 'end': 258, 'mesh': 'C537630'}, {'text': 'birdshot retinochoroidopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 393, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'C537630'}, {'text': 'fluocinolone acetonide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 490, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D005446'}, {'text': 'fluocinolone acetonide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 594, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'D005446'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 746, 'end': 758, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'retinal vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 772, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D031300'}, {'text': 'cataract', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1012, 'mesh': 'D002386'}, {'text': 'raised intraocular pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1017, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1276, 'end': 1286, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': 'cystoid macular edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1457, 'end': 1478, 'mesh': 'D008269'}, {'text': 'increased intraocular pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1731, 'end': 1761, 'mesh': 'D009798'}, {'text': 'cataract', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1774, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'D002386'}, {'text': 'fluocinolone acetonide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1835, 'end': 1857, 'mesh': 'D005446'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1893, 'end': 1905, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'birdshot retinochoroidopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1949, 'end': 1977, 'mesh': 'C537630'}, {'text': 'cataract', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2029, 'end': 2037, 'mesh': 'D002386'}, {'text': 'ocular hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2042, 'end': 2061, 'mesh': 'D009798'}]" +1085,25006369,Optimal precurarizing dose of rocuronium to decrease fasciculation and myalgia following succinylcholine administration.,"BACKGROUND: Succinylcholine commonly produces frequent adverse effects, including muscle fasciculation and myalgia. The current study identified the optimal dose of rocuronium to prevent succinylcholine-induced fasciculation and myalgia and evaluated the influence of rocuronium on the speed of onset produced by succinylcholine. METHODS: This randomized, double-blinded study was conducted in 100 patients randomly allocated into five groups of 20 patients each. Patients were randomized to receive 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05 and 0.06 mg/kg rocuronium as a precurarizing dose. Neuromuscular monitoring after each precurarizing dose was recorded from the adductor pollicis muscle using acceleromyography with train-of-four stimulation of the ulnar nerve. All patients received succinylcholine 1.5 mg/kg at 2 minutes after the precurarization, and were assessed the incidence and severity of fasciculations, while myalgia was assessed at 24 hours after surgery. RESULTS: The incidence and severity of visible muscle fasciculation was significantly less with increasing the amount of precurarizing dose of rocuronium (P < 0.001). Those of myalgia tend to decrease according to increasing the amount of precurarizing dose of rocuronium, but there was no significance (P = 0.072). The onset time of succinylcholine was significantly longer with increasing the amount of precurarizing dose of rocuronium (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Precurarization with 0.04 mg/kg rocuronium was the optimal dose considering the reduction in the incidence and severity of fasciculation and myalgia with acceptable onset time, and the safe and effective precurarization.","[{'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 53, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 71, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 89, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'Succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 203, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 228, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 286, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 332, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 350, 'end': 357, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 389, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 434, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 659, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 894, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'fasciculations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1008, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1261, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1412, 'end': 1427, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1505, 'end': 1515, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'rocuronium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1584, 'mesh': 'C061870'}, {'text': 'fasciculation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1678, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'myalgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1683, 'end': 1690, 'mesh': 'D063806'}]" +1086,25006961,Absence of PKC-alpha attenuates lithium-induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.,"Lithium, an effective antipsychotic, induces nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) in 40% of patients. The decreased capacity to concentrate urine is likely due to lithium acutely disrupting the cAMP pathway and chronically reducing urea transporter (UT-A1) and water channel (AQP2) expression in the inner medulla. Targeting an alternative signaling pathway, such as PKC-mediated signaling, may be an effective method of treating lithium-induced polyuria. PKC-alpha null mice (PKCa KO) and strain-matched wild type (WT) controls were treated with lithium for 0, 3 or 5 days. WT mice had increased urine output and lowered urine osmolality after 3 and 5 days of treatment whereas PKCa KO mice had no change in urine output or concentration. Western blot analysis revealed that AQP2 expression in medullary tissues was lowered after 3 and 5 days in WT mice; however, AQP2 was unchanged in PKCa KO. Similar results were observed with UT-A1 expression. Animals were also treated with lithium for 6 weeks. Lithium-treated WT mice had 19-fold increased urine output whereas treated PKCa KO animals had a 4-fold increase in output. AQP2 and UT-A1 expression was lowered in 6 week lithium-treated WT animals whereas in treated PKCa KO mice, AQP2 was only reduced by 2-fold and UT-A1 expression was unaffected. Urinary sodium, potassium and calcium were elevated in lithium-fed WT but not in lithium-fed PKCa KO mice. Our data show that ablation of PKCa preserves AQP2 and UT-A1 protein expression and localization in lithium-induced NDI, and prevents the development of the severe polyuria associated with lithium therapy.","[{'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 32, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'nephrogenic diabetes insipidus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 48, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'Lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'nephrogenic diabetes insipidus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'NDI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 157, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'cAMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D000242'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 313, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 511, 'end': 518, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 527, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D011141'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1089, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1261, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1399, 'end': 1408, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1420, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1445, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1464, 'end': 1471, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1590, 'end': 1597, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'NDI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1606, 'end': 1609, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'polyuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1654, 'end': 1662, 'mesh': 'D011141'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1679, 'end': 1686, 'mesh': 'D008094'}]" +1087,25031906,Is Dysguesia Going to be a Rare or a Common Side-effect of Amlodipine?,"A very rare side-effect of amlodipine is dysguesia.

Here, we report a case of prolonged neuromuscular block after administration of suxamethonium leading to the discovery of a novel BCHE variant (c.695T>A, p.Val204Asp). Inhibition studies, kinetic analysis and molecular dynamics were undertaken to understand how this mutation disrupts the catalytic triad and determines a ""silent"" phenotype. Low activity of patient plasma butyrylcholinesterase with butyrylthiocholine (BTC) and benzoylcholine, and values of dibucaine and fluoride numbers fit with heterozygous atypical silent genotype. Electrophoretic analysis of plasma BChE of the proband and his mother showed that patient has a reduced amount of tetrameric enzyme in plasma and that minor fast-moving BChE components: monomer, dimer, and monomer-albumin conjugate are missing. Kinetic analysis showed that the p.Val204Asp/p.Asp70Gly-p.Ala539Thr BChE displays a pure Michaelian behavior with BTC as the substrate. Both catalytic parameters Km = 265 uM for BTC, two times higher than that of the atypical enzyme, and a low Vmax are consistent with the absence of activity against suxamethonium. Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations showed that the overall effect of the mutation p.Val204Asp is disruption of hydrogen bonding between Gln223 and Glu441, leading Ser198 and His438 to move away from each other with subsequent disruption of the catalytic triad functionality regardless of the type of substrate. MD also showed that the enzyme volume is increased, suggesting a pre-denaturation state. This fits with the reduced concentration of p.Ala204Asp/p.Asp70Gly-p.Ala539Thr tetrameric enzyme in the plasma and non-detectable fast moving-bands on electrophoresis gels.","[{'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 117, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 128, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'Butyrylcholinesterase deficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 143, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'C537417'}, {'text': 'apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 206, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 247, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'mivacurium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 264, 'end': 274, 'mesh': 'C049430'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 405, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'butyrylthiocholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 725, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D002092'}, {'text': 'BTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 745, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D002092'}, {'text': 'benzoylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 768, 'mesh': 'D001588'}, {'text': 'dibucaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 784, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D003992'}, {'text': 'fluoride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 798, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D005459'}, {'text': 'BTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1222, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'D002092'}, {'text': 'BTC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D002092'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1422, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'hydrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D006859'}]" +1090,25071004,Delayed anemia after treatment with injectable artesunate in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: a manageable issue.,"Cases of delayed hemolytic anemia have been described after treatment with injectable artesunate, the current World Health Organization (WHO)-recommended first-line drug for the treatment of severe malaria.

Male Sprague Dawley rats were treated with betaine (100, 200, and 400 mg/kg) orally for 40 days. Acute myocardial ischemic injury was induced in rats by subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol (85 mg/kg), for two consecutive days. Serum cardiac marker enzyme, histopathological variables and expression of protein levels were analyzed. Oral administration of betaine (200 and 400 mg/kg) significantly reduced the level of cardiac marker enzyme in the serum and prevented left ventricular remodeling. Western blot analysis showed that isoproterenol-induced phosphorylation of STAT3 was maintained or further enhanced by betaine treatment in myocardium. Furthermore, betaine (200 and 400 mg/kg) treatment increased the ventricular expression of Bcl-2 and reduced the level of Bax, therefore causing a significant increase in the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax. The protective role of betaine on myocardial damage was further confirmed by histopathological examination. In summary, our results showed that betaine pretreatment attenuated isoproterenol-induced acute myocardial ischemia via the regulation of STAT3 and apoptotic pathways.","[{'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 110, 'end': 123, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 243, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 260, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 517, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 577, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 653, 'end': 666, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 840, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'ventricular remodeling', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 950, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D020257'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1008, 'end': 1021, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1093, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1344, 'end': 1351, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'myocardial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1372, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'betaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D001622'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1497, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1525, 'end': 1544, 'mesh': 'D017202'}]" +1092,25084821,Quetiapine-induced neutropenia in a bipolar patient with hepatocellular carcinoma.,"OBJECTIVE: Quetiapine is a dibenzothiazepine derivative, similar to clozapine, which has the highest risk of causing blood dyscrasias, especially neutropenia.

MATERIAL AND METHOD: A 40-year-old woman presented with decreased sensation and paresthesia over her right lateral forearm; the paresthesia had occurred after a steroid injection in the right lateral epicondyle 3 months before. Her sensation of light touch and pain was diminished over the lateral side of the right forearm and wrist area. RESULTS: The sensory action potential amplitude of the right lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve (LACN) (6.2 uV) was lower than that of the left (13.1 uV). The difference of amplitude between both sides was significant because there was more than a 50% reduction. She was diagnosed with right LACNP (mainly axonal involvement) on the basis of the clinical manifestation and the electrodiagnostic findings. Her symptoms improved through physical therapy but persisted to some degree. CONCLUSION: This report describes the case of a woman with LACNP that developed after a steroid injection for the treatment of lateral epicondylitis. An electrodiagnostic study, including a nerve conduction study of the LACN, was helpful to diagnose right LACNP and to find the passage of the LACN on the lateral epicondyle.","[{'text': 'neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 31, 'end': 41, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 227, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'lateral epicondylitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 280, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D013716'}, {'text': 'paresthesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 406, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D010292'}, {'text': 'paresthesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 454, 'end': 465, 'mesh': 'D010292'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 587, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1238, 'end': 1245, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'lateral epicondylitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D013716'}]" +1094,25119790,"Curcumin prevents maleate-induced nephrotoxicity: relation to hemodynamic alterations, oxidative stress, mitochondrial oxygen consumption and activity of respiratory complex I.","The potential protective effect of the dietary antioxidant curcumin (120 mg/Kg/day for 6 days) against the renal injury induced by maleate was evaluated. Tubular proteinuria and oxidative stress were induced by a single injection of maleate (400 mg/kg) in rats. Maleate-induced renal injury included increase in renal vascular resistance and in the urinary excretion of total protein, glucose, sodium, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and N-acetyl b-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), upregulation of kidney injury molecule (KIM)-1, decrease in renal blood flow and claudin-2 expression besides of necrosis and apoptosis of tubular cells on 24 h. Oxidative stress was determined by measuring the oxidation of lipids and proteins and diminution in renal Nrf2 levels. Studies were also conducted in renal epithelial LLC-PK1 cells and in mitochondria isolated from kidneys of all the experimental groups. Maleate induced cell damage and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in LLC-PK1 cells in culture. In addition, maleate treatment reduced oxygen consumption in ADP-stimulated mitochondria and diminished respiratory control index when using malate/glutamate as substrate.

It is concluded that curcumin is able to attenuate in vivo maleate-induced nephropathy and in vitro cell damage. The in vivo protection was associated to the prevention of oxidative stress and preservation of mitochondrial oxygen consumption and activity of respiratory complex I, and the in vitro protection was associated to the prevention of ROS production.","[{'text': 'Curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'C030272'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 34, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 236, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 284, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 315, 'mesh': 'C030272'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 410, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'C030272'}, {'text': 'Maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'C030272'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 455, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 562, 'end': 569, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 571, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'kidney injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 685, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 782, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'Maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1093, 'mesh': 'C030272'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'C030272'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'ADP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1249, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D000244'}, {'text': 'malate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1329, 'end': 1335, 'mesh': 'C030298'}, {'text': 'glutamate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1336, 'end': 1345, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'curcumin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1514, 'end': 1522, 'mesh': 'D003474'}, {'text': 'maleate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1552, 'end': 1559, 'mesh': 'C030272'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1579, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1716, 'end': 1722, 'mesh': 'D010100'}]" +1095,25907210,Incidence of solid tumours among pesticide applicators exposed to the organophosphate insecticide diazinon in the Agricultural Health Study: an updated analysis.,"OBJECTIVE: Diazinon, a common organophosphate insecticide with genotoxic properties, was previously associated with lung cancer in the Agricultural Health Study (AHS) cohort, but few other epidemiological studies have examined diazinon-associated cancer risk. We used updated diazinon exposure and cancer incidence information to evaluate solid tumour risk in the AHS. METHODS: Male pesticide applicators in Iowa and North Carolina reported lifetime diazinon use at enrolment (1993-1997) and follow-up (1998-2005); cancer incidence was assessed through 2010(North Carolina)/2011(Iowa). Among applicators with usage information sufficient to evaluate exposure-response patterns, we used Poisson regression to estimate adjusted rate ratios (RRs) and 95% CI for cancer sites with >10 exposed cases for both lifetime (LT) exposure days and intensity-weighted (IW) lifetime exposure days (accounting for factors impacting exposure). RESULTS: We observed elevated lung cancer risks (N=283) among applicators with the greatest number of LT (RR=1.60; 95% CI 1.11 to 2.31; Ptrend=0.02) and IW days of diazinon use (RR=1.41; 95% CI 0.98 to 2.04; Ptrend=0.08). Kidney cancer (N=94) risks were non-significantly elevated (RRLT days=1.77; 95% CI 0.90 to 3.51; Ptrend=0.09; RRIW days 1.37; 95% CI 0.64 to 2.92; Ptrend=0.50), as were risks for aggressive prostate cancer (N=656). CONCLUSIONS: Our updated evaluation of diazinon provides additional evidence of an association with lung cancer risk. Newly identified links to kidney cancer and associations with aggressive prostate cancer require further evaluation.","[{'text': 'tumours', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'organophosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 98, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'Diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'organophosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D010755'}, {'text': 'lung cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 278, 'end': 289, 'mesh': 'D008175'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 389, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 409, 'end': 415, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 438, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 460, 'end': 466, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumour', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 507, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 677, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 921, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'lung cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1120, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D008175'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1262, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'Kidney cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1325, 'mesh': 'D007680'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1502, 'end': 1517, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'diazinon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1566, 'end': 1574, 'mesh': 'D003976'}, {'text': 'lung cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1627, 'end': 1638, 'mesh': 'D008175'}, {'text': 'kidney cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1671, 'end': 1684, 'mesh': 'D007680'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1718, 'end': 1733, 'mesh': 'D011471'}]" +1096,25951420,Associations of Ozone and PM2.5 Concentrations With Parkinson's Disease Among Participants in the Agricultural Health Study.,"OBJECTIVE: This study describes associations of ozone and fine particulate matter with Parkinson's disease observed among farmers in North Carolina and Iowa.

Daily predicted pollutant concentrations were used to derive surrogates of long-term exposure and link them to study participants' geocoded addresses. RESULTS: We observed positive associations of Parkinson's disease with ozone (odds ratio = 1.39; 95% CI: 0.98 to 1.98) and fine particulate matter (odds ratio = 1.34; 95% CI: 0.93 to 1.93) in North Carolina but not in Iowa.

Recent research suggested that IUGR is a risk factor for glomerulosclerosis. However, whether PCE could induce glomerulosclerosis and its underlying mechanisms remain unknown. This study aimed to demonstrate the induction to glomerulosclerosis in adult offspring by PCE and its intrauterine programming mechanisms. A rat model of IUGR was established by PCE, male fetuses and adult offspring at the age of postnatal week 24 were euthanized. The results revealed that the adult offspring kidneys in the PCE group exhibited glomerulosclerosis as well as interstitial fibrosis, accompanied by elevated levels of serum creatinine and urine protein. Renal angiotensin II receptor type 2 (AT2R) gene expression in adult offspring was reduced by PCE, whereas the renal angiotensin II receptor type 1a (AT1aR)/AT2R expression ratio was increased. The fetal kidneys in the PCE group displayed an enlarged Bowman's space and a shrunken glomerular tuft, accompanied by a reduced cortex width and an increase in the nephrogenic zone/cortical zone ratio. Observation by electronic microscope revealed structural damage of podocytes; the reduced expression level of podocyte marker genes, nephrin and podocin, was also detected by q-PCR. Moreover, AT2R gene and protein expressions in fetal kidneys were inhibited by PCE, associated with the repression of the gene expression of glial-cell-line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)/tyrosine kinase receptor (c-Ret) signaling pathway. These results demonstrated that PCE could induce dysplasia of fetal kidneys as well as glomerulosclerosis of adult offspring, and the low functional programming of renal AT2R might mediate the developmental origin of adult glomerulosclerosis.","[{'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 78, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 136, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 214, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'intrauterine growth retardation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 282, 'mesh': 'D005317'}, {'text': 'IUGR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 284, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D005317'}, {'text': 'IUGR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 335, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D005317'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 361, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 415, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 529, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'IUGR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 634, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D005317'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 826, 'end': 844, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'interstitial fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 856, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 919, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 955, 'end': 969, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1066, 'end': 1080, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1720, 'end': 1728, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'dysplasia of fetal kidneys', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1821, 'end': 1847, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1859, 'end': 1877, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1995, 'end': 2013, 'mesh': 'D005921'}]" +1098,26002693,"1,3-Butadiene, CML and the t(9:22) translocation: A reality check.","UNASSIGNED: Epidemiological studies of 1,3-butadiene have suggest that exposures to humans are associated with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).

We have proposed that 1,3-butadiene metabolites be so tested as a reality check on the epidemiological reports. In order to conduct reliable testing in this regard, it is essential that a positive control for induction be available. We have used ionizing radiation to develop such a control.

Epidemiologic studies of the health effects of metolachlor have been limited. The Agricultural Health Study (AHS) is a prospective cohort study including licensed private and commercial pesticide applicators in Iowa and North Carolina enrolled 1993-1997. We evaluated cancer incidence through 2010/2011 (NC/IA) for 49,616 applicators, 53% of whom reported ever using metolachlor. We used Poisson regression to evaluate relations between two metrics of metolachlor use (lifetime days, intensity-weighted lifetime days) and cancer incidence. We saw no association between metolachlor use and incidence of all cancers combined (n = 5,701 with a 5-year lag) or most site-specific cancers. For liver cancer, in analyses restricted to exposed workers, elevations observed at higher categories of use were not statistically significant. However, trends for both lifetime and intensity-weighted lifetime days of metolachor use were positive and statistically significant with an unexposed reference group. A similar pattern was observed for follicular cell lymphoma, but no other lymphoma subtypes. An earlier suggestion of increased lung cancer risk at high levels of metolachlor use in this cohort was not confirmed in this update. This suggestion of an association between metolachlor and liver cancer among pesticide applicators is a novel finding and echoes observation of increased liver neoplasms in some animal studies. However, our findings for both liver cancer and follicular cell lymphoma warrant follow-up to better differentiate effects of metolachlor use from other factors.","[{'text': 'Cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 6, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'Metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 94, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'liver neoplasms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 233, 'end': 248, 'mesh': 'D008113'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 312, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 539, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 643, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 717, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 787, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 835, 'end': 846, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 872, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cancers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 941, 'end': 948, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'liver cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 954, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'D008113'}, {'text': 'metolachor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1169, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'follicular cell lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1322, 'mesh': 'D008224'}, {'text': 'lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1337, 'end': 1345, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'lung cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D008175'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1426, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1544, 'mesh': 'C051786'}, {'text': 'liver cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1549, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'D008113'}, {'text': 'liver neoplasms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1645, 'end': 1660, 'mesh': 'D008113'}, {'text': 'liver cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1716, 'end': 1728, 'mesh': 'D008113'}, {'text': 'lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1757, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'metolachlor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1811, 'end': 1822, 'mesh': 'C051786'}]" +1100,26115410,Mechanisms Underlying Latent Disease Risk Associated with Early-Life Arsenic Exposure: Current Research Trends and Scientific Gaps.,"BACKGROUND: Millions of individuals worldwide, particularly those living in rural and developing areas, are exposed to harmful levels of inorganic arsenic (iAs) in their drinking water. Inorganic As exposure during key developmental periods is associated with a variety of adverse health effects including those that are evident in adulthood. There is considerable interest in identifying the molecular mechanisms that relate early-life iAs exposure to the development of these latent diseases, particularly in relationship to cancer. OBJECTIVES: This work summarizes research on the molecular mechanisms that underlie the increased risk of cancer development in adulthood that is associated with early-life iAs exposure. DISCUSSION: Epigenetic reprogramming that imparts functional changes in gene expression, the development of cancer stem cells, and immunomodulation are plausible underlying mechanisms by which early-life iAs exposure elicits latent carcinogenic effects. CONCLUSIONS: Evidence is mounting that relates early-life iAs exposure and cancer development later in life. Future research should include animal studies that address mechanistic hypotheses and studies of human populations that integrate early-life exposure, molecular alterations, and latent disease outcomes.","[{'text': 'Arsenic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 69, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D001151'}, {'text': 'inorganic arsenic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D001152'}, {'text': 'iAs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 291, 'mesh': 'D001152'}, {'text': 'Inorganic As', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 318, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D001152'}, {'text': 'iAs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D001152'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 659, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 773, 'end': 779, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'iAs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 840, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D001152'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 962, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'iAs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1058, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'D001152'}, {'text': 'iAs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1169, 'mesh': 'D001152'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D009369'}]" +1101,44072,"On the antiarrhythmic activity of one N-substituted piperazine derivative of trans-2-amino-3-hydroxy-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydroanaphthalene.","The antiarrhythmic activity of the compound N-(trans-3-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl)-N-(3-oxo-3-phenyl-2-methylpropyl)-piperazine hydrochloride, referred to as P11, is studied on anaesthesized cats and Wistar albino rats, as well as on non-anaesthesized rabbits.

The results obtained are associated with the beta-adrenoblocking and with the membrane-stabilizing action of the compound.","[{'text': 'piperazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 52, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'C034930'}, {'text': 'trans-2-amino-3-hydroxy-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydroanaphthalene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 77, 'end': 134, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'N-(trans-3-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl)-N-(3-oxo-3-phenyl-2-methylpropyl)-piperazine hydrochloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 180, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'C013741'}, {'text': 'P11', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 305, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'C013741'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 435, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'BaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 466, 'mesh': 'C024986'}, {'text': 'chloroform', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 473, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D002725'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 484, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'strophantine G', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'aconitine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 525, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D000157'}, {'text': 'P11', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 549, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'C013741'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 711, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 763, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'chloroform', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 785, 'end': 795, 'mesh': 'D002725'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 796, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'BaCl2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'C024986'}]" +1102,753803,Experimental progressive muscular dystrophy and its treatment with high doses anabolizing agents.,"We are still a long way from discovering an unequivocal pathogenetic interpretation of progressive muscular dystrophy in man. Noteworthy efforts have been made in the experimental field; a recessive autosomic form found in the mouse seems to bear the closest resemblance to the human form from the genetic point of view. Myopathy due to lack of vitamin E and myopathy induced by certain viruses have much in common anatomically and pathologically with the human form. The authors induced myodystrophy in the rat by giving it a diet lacking in vitamin E. The pharmacological characteristics of vitamin E and the degenerative changes brought about by its deficiency, especially in the muscles, are illustrated. It is thus confirmed that the histological characteristics of myopathic rat muscle induced experimentally are extraordinarily similar to those of human myopathy as confirmed during biopsies performed at the Orthopaedic Traumatological Centre, Florence. The encouraging results obtained in various authoratative departments in myopathic patients by using anabolizing steroids have encouraged the authors to investigate the beneficial effects of one anabolizing agent (Dianabol, CIBA) at high doses in rats rendered myopathic by a diet deficient in vitamin E. In this way they obtained appreciable changes in body weight (increased from 50 to 70 g after forty days at a dose of 5 mg per day of anabolizing agent), but most of all they found histological changes due to ""regenerative"" changes in the muscle tissue, which however maintained its myopathic characteristics in the control animals that were not treated with the anabolizing agent. The authors conclude by affirming the undoubted efficacy of the anabolizing steroids in experimental myopathic disease, but they have reservations as to the transfer of the results into the human field, where high dosage cannot be carried out continuously because of the effects of the drug on virility; because the tissue injury too often occurs at an irreversible stage vis-a-vis the ""regeneration"" of the muscle tissue; and finally because the dystrophic injurious agent is certainly not the lack of vitamin E but something as yet unknown.","[{'text': 'muscular dystrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D009136'}, {'text': 'muscular dystrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 197, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D009136'}, {'text': 'Myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 419, 'end': 427, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 443, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 457, 'end': 465, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'myodystrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 586, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D009136'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 641, 'end': 650, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 691, 'end': 700, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'myopathic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 869, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'myopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 959, 'end': 967, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'myopathic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1181, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'Dianabol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1282, 'mesh': 'D008696'}, {'text': 'CIBA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1284, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'myopathic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1321, 'end': 1330, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1354, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D014810'}, {'text': 'myopathic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1648, 'end': 1657, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'steroids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1823, 'end': 1831, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'myopathic disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1848, 'end': 1865, 'mesh': 'D009135'}, {'text': 'vitamin E', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2250, 'end': 2259, 'mesh': 'D014810'}]" +1103,920167,Fetal risks due to warfarin therapy during pregnancy.,"Two mothers with heart valve prosthesis were treated with warfarin during pregnancy.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether tachyphylaxis occurs during prolonged treatment with high dose inhaled salbutamol. Twelve asthmatic patients (FEV1, 81 +/- 4% predicted), requiring only occasional inhaled beta-agonists as their sole therapy, were given a 14-day treatment with high dose inhaled salbutamol (HDS), 4,000 micrograms daily, low dose inhaled salbutamol (LDS), 800 micrograms daily, or placebo (PI) by metered-dose inhaler in a double-blind, randomized crossover design. During the 14-day run-in and during washout periods, inhaled beta-agonists were withheld and ipratropium bromide was substituted for rescue purposes. At the end of each 14-day treatment, a dose-response curve (DRC) was performed, and airway (FEV1, FEF25-75) chronotropic (HR), tremor, and metabolic (K, Glu) responses were measured at each step (from 100 to 4,000 micrograms). Treatment had no significant effect on baseline values. There were dose-dependent increases in FEV1 and FEF25-75 (p less than 0.001), and pretreatment with HDS did not displace the DRC to the right. DRC for HR (p less than 0.001), K (p less than 0.001), and Glu (p less than 0.005) were attenuated after treatment with HDS compared with PI. There were also differences between HDS and LDS for HR (p less than 0.001) and Glu (p less than 0.05) responses. Frequency and severity of subjective adverse effects were also reduced after HDS: tremor (p less than 0.001), palpitations (p less than 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'asthmatics', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 116, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D001249'}, {'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'asthma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 230, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D001249'}, {'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'asthmatic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 465, 'end': 474, 'mesh': 'D001249'}, {'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 637, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'salbutamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 696, 'end': 706, 'mesh': 'D000420'}, {'text': 'ipratropium bromide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 917, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D009241'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1125, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Glu', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1432, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'Glu', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'Glu', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1621, 'end': 1624, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1743, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'palpitations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1765, 'end': 1777, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +1106,2983630,Increased anxiogenic effects of caffeine in panic disorders.,"The effects of oral administration of caffeine (10 mg/kg) on behavioral ratings, somatic symptoms, blood pressure and plasma levels of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenethyleneglycol (MHPG) and cortisol were determined in 17 healthy subjects and 21 patients meeting DSM-III criteria for agoraphobia with panic attacks or panic disorder. Caffeine produced significantly greater increases in subject-rated anxiety, nervousness, fear, nausea, palpitations, restlessness, and tremors in the patients compared with healthy subjects.

Seventy-one percent of the patients reported that the behavioral effects of caffeine were similar to those experienced during panic attacks. Caffeine did not alter plasma MHPG levels in either the healthy subjects or patients. Caffeine increased plasma cortisol levels equally in the patient and healthy groups. Because caffeine is an adenosine receptor antagonist, these results suggest that some panic disorder patients may have abnormalities in neuronal systems involving adenosine.

C57BL/6J, chosen as a ""prototypic"" mouse strain, was used to determine behavioral responses to a broad range (5-500 mg/kg) of caffeine doses. Five phenotypic characteristics--locomotor activity, righting ability, clonic seizure induction, stress-induced lethality, death without external stress--were scored at various caffeine doses in drug-naive animals under empirically optimized, rigidly constant experimental conditions. Mice (n = 12 for each point) received single IP injections of a fixed volume/g body weight of physiological saline carrier with or without caffeine in doses ranging from 125-500 mg/kg. Loss of righting ability was scored at 1, 3, 5 min post dosing and at 5 min intervals thereafter for 20 min. In the same animals the occurrence of clonic seizures was scored as to time of onset and severity for 20 min after drug administration. When these proceeded to tonic seizures, death occurred in less than 20 min. Animals surviving for 20 min were immediately stressed by a swim test in 25 degrees C water, and death-producing tonic seizures were scored for 2 min.

By any single behavioral criterion or a combination of these criteria, marked differences in response to toxic caffeine doses were observed between strains. These results indicate that behavioral toxicity testing of alkylxanthines in a single mouse strain may be misleading and suggest that toxic responses of the central nervous system to this class of compounds are genetically influenced in mammals.","[{'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 128, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 381, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'clonic seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 468, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 574, 'end': 582, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 821, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'clonic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tonic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'tonic seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1407, 'end': 1415, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'caffeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1543, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D002110'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1628, 'end': 1636, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'alkylxanthines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1648, 'end': 1662, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +1109,7248895,Invasive carcinoma of the renal pelvis following cyclophosphamide therapy for nonmalignant disease.,"A 47-year-old woman with right hydroureteronephrosis due to ureterovesical junction obstruction had gross hematuria after being treated for five years wtih cyclophosphamide for cerebral vasculitis. A right nephroureterectomy was required for control of bleeding. The pathology specimen contained clinically occult invasive carcinoma of the renal pelvis. Although the ability of cyclophosphamide to cause hemorrhagic cystitis and urine cytologic abnormalities indistinguishable from high grade carcinoma is well known, it is less widely appreciated that it is also associated with carcinoma of the urinary tract. Twenty carcinomas of the urinary bladder and one carcinoma of the prostate have been reported in association with its use. The present case is the first carcinoma of the renal pelvis reported in association with cyclophosphamide treatment. It is the third urinary tract cancer reported in association with cyclophosphamide treatment for nonmalignant disease. The association of the tumor with preexisting hydroureteronephrosis suggests that stasis prolonged and intensified exposure of upper urinary tract epithelium to cyclophosphamide. Patients who are candidates for long-term cyclophosphamide treatment should be routinely evaluated for obstructive uropathy.","[{'text': 'carcinoma of the renal pelvis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 9, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D010386'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'hydroureteronephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 131, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D006869'}, {'text': 'hematuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 206, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D006417'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 256, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cerebral vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 277, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D020293'}, {'text': 'bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 353, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'carcinoma of the renal pelvis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 423, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D010386'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 478, 'end': 494, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 593, 'end': 602, 'mesh': 'D002277'}, {'text': 'carcinoma of the urinary tract', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 680, 'end': 710, 'mesh': 'D014571'}, {'text': 'carcinomas of the urinary bladder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 719, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D001749'}, {'text': 'carcinoma of the prostate', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 761, 'end': 786, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'carcinoma of the renal pelvis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 865, 'end': 894, 'mesh': 'D010386'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 924, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'urinary tract cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 968, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D014571'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'hydroureteronephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D006869'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1232, 'end': 1248, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1292, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'obstructive uropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1353, 'end': 1373, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +1110,9578276,Ascending dose tolerance study of intramuscular carbetocin administered after normal vaginal birth.,"OBJECTIVE: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of carbetocin (a long-acting synthetic analogue of oxytocin), when administered immediately after vaginal delivery at term. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Carbetocin was given as an intramuscular injection immediately after the birth of the infant in 45 healthy women with normal singleton pregnancies who delivered vaginally at term. Dosage groups of 15, 30, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 or 200 microg carbetocin were assigned to blocks of three women according to the continual reassessment method (CRM). RESULTS: All dosage groups consisted of three women, except those with 100 microg (n=6) and 200 microg (n=18). Recorded were dose-limiting adverse events: hyper- or hypotension (three), severe abdominal pain (0), vomiting (0) and retained placenta (four). Serious adverse events occurred in seven women: six cases with blood loss > or = 1000 ml, four cases of manual placenta removal, five cases of additional oxytocics administration and five cases of blood transfusion. Maximum blood loss was greatest at the upper and lower dose levels, and lowest in the 70-125 microg dose range. Four out of six cases with blood loss > or = 1000 ml occurred in the 200 microg group. The majority of additional administration of oxytocics (4/5) and blood transfusion (3/5) occurred in the dose groups of 200 microg. All retained placentae were found in the group of 200 microg. CONCLUSION: The MTD was calculated to be at 200 microg carbetocin.","[{'text': 'carbetocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'C020731'}, {'text': 'carbetocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'C020731'}, {'text': 'oxytocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 216, 'mesh': 'D010121'}, {'text': 'Carbetocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'C020731'}, {'text': 'carbetocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 550, 'end': 560, 'mesh': 'C020731'}, {'text': 'hyper- or hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 809, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'D006973|D007022'}, {'text': 'abdominal pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 847, 'end': 861, 'mesh': 'D015746'}, {'text': 'vomiting', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 867, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'retained placenta', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 884, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D018457'}, {'text': 'blood loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 973, 'end': 983, 'mesh': 'D006473'}, {'text': 'blood loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1134, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D006473'}, {'text': 'blood loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1265, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'D006473'}, {'text': 'carbetocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1584, 'mesh': 'C020731'}]" +1111,11423811,A pilot study to assess the safety of dobutamine stress echocardiography in the emergency department evaluation of cocaine-associated chest pain.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE: Chest pain in the setting of cocaine use poses a diagnostic dilemma. Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is a widely available and sensitive test for evaluating cardiac ischemia. Because of the theoretical concern regarding administration of dobutamine in the setting of cocaine use, we conducted a pilot study to assess the safety of DSE in emergency department patients with cocaine-associated chest pain. METHODS: A prospective case series was conducted in the intensive diagnostic and treatment unit in the ED of an urban tertiary-care teaching hospital. Patients were eligible for DSE if they had used cocaine within 24 hours preceding the onset of chest pain and had a normal ECG and tropinin I level. Patients exhibiting signs of continuing cocaine toxicity were excluded from the study. All patients were admitted to the hospital for serial testing after the DSE testing in the intensive diagnostic and treatment unit. RESULTS: Twenty-four patients were enrolled. Two patients had inadequate resting images, one DSE was terminated because of inferior hypokinesis, another DSE was terminated because of a rate-related atrial conduction deficit, and 1 patient did not reach the target heart rate. Thus, 19 patients completed a DSE and reached their target heart rates. None of the patients experienced signs of exaggerated adrenergic response, which was defined as a systolic blood pressure of greater than 200 mm Hg or the occurrence of tachydysrhythmias (excluding sinus tachycardia). Further suggesting lack of exaggerated adrenergic response, 13 (65%) of 20 patients required supplemental atropine to reach their target heart rates. CONCLUSION: No exaggerated adrenergic response was detected when dobutamine was administered to patients with cocaine-related chest pain.","[{'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 134, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'Chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 163, 'end': 173, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'Dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 232, 'end': 242, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 337, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 410, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 564, 'end': 574, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 775, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 822, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 916, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'hypokinesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'D018476'}, {'text': 'tachydysrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1629, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'sinus tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1641, 'end': 1658, 'mesh': 'D013616'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1767, 'end': 1775, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1876, 'end': 1886, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1921, 'end': 1928, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1937, 'end': 1947, 'mesh': 'D002637'}]" +1112,12678199,Amiodarone-induced torsade de pointes during bladder irrigation: an unusual presentation--a case report.,"The authors present a case of early (within 4 days) development of torsade de pointes (TdP) associated with oral amiodarone therapy. Consistent with other reports this case of TdP occurred in the context of multiple exacerbating factors including hypokalemia and digoxin excess. Transient prolongation of the QT during bladder irrigation prompted the episode of TdP. It is well known that bradycardia exacerbates acquired TdP. The authors speculate that the increased vagal tone during bladder irrigation, a vagal maneuver, in the context of amiodarone therapy resulted in amiodarone-induced proarrhythmia. In the absence of amiodarone therapy, a second bladder irrigation did not induce TdP despite hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia.","[{'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 172, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 218, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 281, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 352, 'end': 363, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'digoxin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 368, 'end': 375, 'mesh': 'D004077'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 467, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 494, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 527, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 647, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 678, 'end': 688, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'proarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 697, 'end': 710, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 730, 'end': 740, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 793, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 805, 'end': 816, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'hypomagnesemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 821, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'C537153'}]" +1113,15696449,Acute renal insufficiency after high-dose melphalan in patients with primary systemic amyloidosis during stem cell transplantation.,"BACKGROUND: Patients with primary systemic amyloidosis (AL) have a poor prognosis. Median survival time from standard treatments is only 17 months. High-dose intravenous melphalan followed by peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) appears to be the most promising therapy, but treatment mortality can be high. The authors have noted the development of acute renal insufficiency immediately after melphalan conditioning. This study was undertaken to further examine its risk factors and impact on posttransplant mortality. METHODS: Consecutive AL patients who underwent PBSCT were studied retrospectively. Acute renal insufficiency (ARI) after high-dose melphalan was defined by a minimum increase of 0.5 mg/dL (44 micromol/L) in the serum creatinine level that is greater than 50% of baseline immediately after conditioning. Urine sediment score was the sum of the individual types of sediment identified on urine microscopy. RESULTS: Of the 80 patients studied, ARI developed in 18.8% of the patients after high-dose melphalan. Univariate analysis identified age, hypoalbuminemia, heavy proteinuria, diuretic use, and urine sediment score (>3) as risk factors. Age and urine sediment score remained independently significant risk factors in the multivariate analysis. Patients who had ARI after high-dose melphalan underwent dialysis more often (P = 0.007), and had a worse 1-year survival (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION: The timing of renal injury strongly suggests melphalan as the causative agent. Ongoing tubular injury may be a prerequisite for renal injury by melphalan as evidenced by the active urinary sediment. Development of ARI adversely affected the outcome after PBSCT. Effective preventive measures may help decrease the treatment mortality of PBSCT in AL patients.","[{'text': 'Acute renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'primary systemic amyloidosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'C531616'}, {'text': 'primary systemic amyloidosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'C531616'}, {'text': 'AL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 190, 'mesh': 'D000686'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 302, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'acute renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 491, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 535, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'AL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 682, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D000686'}, {'text': 'Acute renal insufficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 744, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'ARI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 771, 'end': 774, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'ARI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1102, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'hypoalbuminemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D034141'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'ARI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1425, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1568, 'end': 1580, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1599, 'end': 1608, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'tubular injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1641, 'end': 1655, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1682, 'end': 1694, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'melphalan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1698, 'end': 1707, 'mesh': 'D008558'}, {'text': 'ARI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1768, 'end': 1771, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'AL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1900, 'end': 1902, 'mesh': 'D000686'}]" +1114,17554526,Impaired fear recognition in regular recreational cocaine users.,"INTRODUCTION: The ability to read facial expressions is essential for normal human social interaction. The aim of the present study was to conduct the first investigation of facial expression recognition performance in recreational cocaine users. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three groups, comprised of 21 cocaine naive participants (CN), 30 occasional cocaine (OC), and 48 regular recreational cocaine (RC) users, were compared. An emotional facial expression (EFE) task consisting of a male and female face expressing six basic emotions (happiness, surprise, sadness, anger, fear, and disgust) was administered. Mean percent accuracy and latencies for correct responses across eight presentations of each basic emotion were derived. Participants were also assessed with the ""Eyes task"" to investigate their ability to recognize more complex emotional states and the Symptom CheckList-90-Revised to measure psychopathology. RESULTS: There were no group differences in psychopathology or ""eyes task"" performance, but the RC group, who otherwise had similar illicit substance use histories to the OC group, exhibited impaired fear recognition accuracy compared to the OC and CN groups. The RC group also correctly identified anger, fear, happiness, and surprise, more slowly than CN, but not OC participants. The OC group was slower than CN when correctly identifying disgust. The selective deficit in fear recognition accuracy manifested by the RC group cannot be explained by the subacute effects of cocaine, or ecstasy, because recent and less recent users of these drugs within this group were similarly impaired. Possible parallels between RC users and psychopaths with respect to impaired fear recognition, amygdala dysfunction, and etiology are discussed.","[{'text': 'Impaired fear recognition', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D001925'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 297, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 365, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 413, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 455, 'end': 462, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'impaired fear recognition', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1176, 'end': 1201, 'mesh': 'D001925'}, {'text': 'deficit in fear recognition', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1477, 'mesh': 'D001925'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1561, 'end': 1568, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'ecstasy', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1573, 'end': 1580, 'mesh': 'D018817'}, {'text': 'psychopaths', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1717, 'end': 1728, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'impaired fear recognition', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1745, 'end': 1770, 'mesh': 'D001925'}, {'text': 'amygdala dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1772, 'end': 1792, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +1115,17721298,Corneal ulcers associated with aerosolized crack cocaine use.,"PURPOSE: We report 4 cases of corneal ulcers associated with drug abuse. The pathogenesis of these ulcers and management of these patients are also reviewed. METHODS: Review of all cases of corneal ulcers associated with drug abuse seen at our institution from July 2006 to December 2006. RESULTS: Four patients with corneal ulcers associated with crack cocaine use were reviewed. All corneal ulcers were cultured, and the patients were admitted to the hospital for intensive topical antibiotic treatment. Each patient received comprehensive health care, including medical and substance abuse consultations. Streptococcal organisms were found in 3 cases and Capnocytophaga and Brevibacterium casei in 1 patient. The infections responded to antibiotic treatment. Two patients needed a lateral tarsorrhaphy for persistent epithelial defects. CONCLUSIONS: Aerosolized crack cocaine use can be associated with the development of corneal ulcers.

DESIGN-Open-label, noncomparative clinical trial. ANIMALS: 12 cats suspected to have idiopathic epilepsy that was poorly controlled with phenobarbital or that had unacceptable adverse effects when treated with phenobarbital. PROCEDURES: Cats were treated with levetiracetam (20 mg/kg [9.1 mg/lb], PO, q 8 h). After a minimum of 1 week of treatment, serum levetiracetam concentrations were measured before and 2, 4, and 6 hours after drug administration, and maximum and minimum serum concentrations and elimination half-life were calculated. Seizure frequencies before and after initiation of levetiracetam treatment were compared, and adverse effects were recorded. RESULTS: Median maximum serum levetiracetam concentration was 25.5 microg/mL, median minimum serum levetiracetam concentration was 8.3 microg/mL, and median elimination half-life was 2.9 hours. Median seizure frequency prior to treatment with levetiracetam (2.1 seizures/mo) was significantly higher than median seizure frequency after initiation of levetiracetam treatment (0.42 seizures/mo), and 7 of 10 cats were classified as having responded to levetiracetam treatment (ie, reduction in seizure frequency of >or=50%). Two cats had transient lethargy and inappetence. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results suggested that levetiracetam is well tolerated in cats and may be useful as an adjunct to phenobarbital treatment in cats with idiopathic epilepsy.","[{'text': 'Levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'idiopathic epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 78, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'C562694'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 217, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'idiopathic epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 282, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'C562694'}, {'text': 'idiopathic epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 388, 'end': 407, 'mesh': 'C562694'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 440, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 513, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 563, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 658, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'Seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 845, 'end': 852, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 896, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1000, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1171, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1213, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1232, 'end': 1240, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1320, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1350, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1420, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1462, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lethargy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1516, 'end': 1524, 'mesh': 'D053609'}, {'text': 'inappetence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1529, 'end': 1540, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'levetiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1601, 'end': 1614, 'mesh': 'C026098'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1676, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'idiopathic epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1713, 'end': 1732, 'mesh': 'C562694'}]" +1117,19681452,Bilateral haemorrhagic infarction of the globus pallidus after cocaine and alcohol intoxication.,"Cocaine is a risk factor for both ischemic and haemorrhagic stroke.

We report a case of acute renal failure after HD-MTX therapy in a patient with ileostomy, The patient was a 3-year-old boy who had received a living-related liver transplantation for congenital biliary atresia. At day 833 after the transplantation, he was diagnosed with PTLD (post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder, Burkitt-type malignant lymphoma). During induction therapy, he suffered ileal perforation and ileostomy was performed. Subsequent HD-MTX therapy caused acute renal failure that required continuous hemodialysis. We supposed that intravascular hypovolemia due to substantial drainage from the ileostoma caused acute prerenal failure. After recovery of his renal function, we could safely treat the patient with HD-MTX therapy by controlling drainage from ileostoma with total parenteral nutrition.","[{'text': 'Acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 36, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 113, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'Burkitt lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 148, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D002051'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 258, 'end': 277, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 287, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'biliary atresia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 432, 'end': 447, 'mesh': 'D001656'}, {'text': 'PTLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 509, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 515, 'end': 564, 'mesh': 'D008232'}, {'text': 'Burkitt-type malignant lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 566, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D002051'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 699, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 718, 'end': 737, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'hypovolemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 808, 'end': 819, 'mesh': 'D020896'}, {'text': 'acute prerenal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 874, 'end': 896, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'MTX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 978, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D008727'}]" +1119,20431083,"Antithrombotic drug use, cerebral microbleeds, and intracerebral hemorrhage: a systematic review of published and unpublished studies.","BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cerebral microbleeds (MB) are potential risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), but it is unclear if they are a contraindication to using antithrombotic drugs. Insights could be gained by pooling data on MB frequency stratified by antithrombotic use in cohorts with ICH and ischemic stroke (IS)/transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS: We performed a systematic review of published and unpublished data from cohorts with stroke or TIA to compare the presence of MB in: (1) antithrombotic users vs nonantithrombotic users with ICH; (2) antithrombotic users vs nonusers with IS/TIA; and (3) ICH vs ischemic events stratified by antithrombotic use. We also analyzed published and unpublished follow-up data to determine the risk of ICH in antithrombotic users with MB. RESULTS: In a pooled analysis of 1460 ICH and 3817 IS/TIA, MB were more frequent in ICH vs IS/TIA in all treatment groups, but the excess increased from 2.8 (odds ratio; range, 2.3-3.5) in nonantithrombotic users to 5.7 (range, 3.4-9.7) in antiplatelet users and 8.0 (range, 3.5-17.8) in warfarin users (P difference=0.01). There was also an excess of MB in warfarin users vs nonusers with ICH (OR, 2.7; 95% CI, 1.6-4.4; P<0.001) but none in warfarin users with IS/TIA (OR, 1.3; 95% CI, 0.9-1.7; P=0.33; P difference=0.01). There was a smaller excess of MB in antiplatelet users vs nonusers with ICH (OR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.3-2.3; P<0.001), but findings were similar for antiplatelet users with IS/TIA (OR, 1.4; 95% CI, 1.2-1.7; P<0.001; P difference=0.25). In pooled follow-up data for 768 antithrombotic users, presence of MB at baseline was associated with a substantially increased risk of subsequent ICH (OR, 12.1; 95% CI, 3.4-42.5; P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The excess of MB in warfarin users with ICH compared to other groups suggests that MB increase the risk of warfarin-associated ICH. Limited prospective data corroborate these findings, but larger prospective studies are urgently required.","[{'text': 'cerebral microbleeds', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 45, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'intracerebral hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'Cerebral microbleeds', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 159, 'end': 179, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 181, 'end': 183, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'intracerebral hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 216, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 242, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 372, 'end': 374, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 434, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'ischemic stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 442, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'IS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 459, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'transient ischemic attack', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 463, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'TIA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 490, 'end': 493, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 590, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'TIA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 600, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 631, 'end': 633, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 695, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'IS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 742, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'TIA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 745, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 758, 'end': 761, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 765, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 898, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 931, 'end': 933, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 973, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'IS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 986, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'TIA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 989, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 994, 'end': 996, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'IS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'TIA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1029, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1223, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1287, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1293, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1328, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1377, 'end': 1385, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'IS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1397, 'end': 1399, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'TIA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1400, 'end': 1403, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1534, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'IS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1626, 'end': 1628, 'mesh': 'D002544'}, {'text': 'TIA', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1629, 'end': 1632, 'mesh': 'D002546'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1756, 'end': 1758, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1836, 'end': 1839, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1906, 'end': 1908, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1912, 'end': 1920, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1932, 'end': 1935, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'MB', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1975, 'end': 1977, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1999, 'end': 2007, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'ICH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2019, 'end': 2022, 'mesh': 'D002543'}]" +1120,20595935,Verapamil stimulation test in hyperprolactinemia: loss of prolactin response in anatomic or functional stalk effect.,"AIM: Verapamil stimulation test was previously investigated as a tool for differential diagnosis of hyperprolactinemia, but with conflicting results. Macroprolactinemia was never considered in those previous studies. Here, we aimed to re-investigate the diagnostic value of verapamil in a population who were all screened for macroprolactinemia. Prolactin responses to verapamil in 65 female patients (age: 29.9 +/- 8.1 years) with hyperprolactinemia were tested in a descriptive, matched case-control study. METHODS: Verapamil 80 mg, p.o. was administered, and then PRL levels were measured at 8th and 16th hours, by immunometric chemiluminescence. Verapamil responsiveness was determined by peak percent change in basal prolactin levels (PRL). RESULTS: Verapamil significantly increased PRL levels in healthy controls (N. 8, PRL: 183%), macroprolactinoma (N. 8, PRL: 7%), microprolactinoma (N. 19, PRL: 21%), macroprolactinemia (N. 23, PRL: 126%), but not in pseudoprolactinoma (N. 8, PRL: 0.8%), and risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia (N. 7, PRL: 3%). ROC curve analysis revealed that unresponsiveness to verapamil defined as PRL <7%, discriminated anatomical or functional stalk effect (sensitivity: 74%, specificity: 73%, AUC: 0.855+/-0.04, P <0.001, CI: 0.768-0.942) associated with pseudoprolactinoma or risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia, respectively. CONCLUSION: Verapamil responsiveness is not a reliable finding for the differential diagnosis of hyperprolactinemia. However, verapamil unresponsiveness discriminates stalk effect (i.e., anatomically or functionally inhibited dopaminergic tonus) from other causes of hyperprolactinemia with varying degrees of responsiveness.","[{'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 30, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'Macroprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 267, 'end': 285, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 391, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'macroprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 443, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 486, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 549, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 635, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 767, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 872, 'end': 881, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'macroprolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 956, 'end': 973, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'microprolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 991, 'end': 1008, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'macroprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D015175'}, {'text': 'pseudoprolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1096, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1120, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1140, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'pseudoprolactinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1410, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1432, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1452, 'end': 1470, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'Verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1583, 'end': 1601, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1612, 'end': 1621, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1753, 'end': 1771, 'mesh': 'D006966'}]" +1121,35781,Central action of narcotic analgesics. Part IV. Noradrenergic influences on the activity of analgesics in rats.,"The effect of clonidine, naphazoline and xylometazoline on analgesia induced by morphine, codeine, fentanyl and pentazocine, and on cataleptic effect of morphine, codine and fentanyl was studied in rats. The biochemical assays on the influence of four analgesics on the brain concentration and turnover of noradrenaline (NA) were also performed. It was found that three drugs stimulating central NA receptors failed to affect the analgesic ED50 of all antinociceptive agents and they enhanced catalepsy induced by morphine and fentanyl. Codeine catalepsy was increased by clonidine and decreased by naphazoline and xylometazoline. The brain concentration of NA was not changed by morphine and fentanyl, but one of the doses of codeine (45 mg/kg) slightly enhanced it. Pentazocine dose-dependently decreased the brain level of NA. The rate of NA turnover was not altered by analgesics except for the higher dose of fentanyl (0.2 mg/kg) following which the disappearance of NA from the brain was diminished. The results are discussed in the light of various and non-uniform data from the literature. It is suggested that in rats the brain NA plays a less important function than the other monoamines in the behavioural activity of potent analgesics.","[{'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 126, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'naphazoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 137, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D009278'}, {'text': 'xylometazoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 153, 'end': 167, 'mesh': 'C009695'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'codeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 202, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D003061'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'pentazocine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D010423'}, {'text': 'cataleptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 244, 'end': 254, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 265, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'codine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D003061'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 286, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'noradrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 418, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'NA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 433, 'end': 435, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'NA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 508, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 605, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 626, 'end': 634, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 639, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'Codeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 649, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D003061'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 657, 'end': 666, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 693, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'naphazoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 711, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D009278'}, {'text': 'xylometazoline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 727, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'C009695'}, {'text': 'NA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 770, 'end': 772, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 800, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 805, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'codeine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 839, 'end': 846, 'mesh': 'D003061'}, {'text': 'Pentazocine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 880, 'end': 891, 'mesh': 'D010423'}, {'text': 'NA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 938, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'NA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 956, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'fentanyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D005283'}, {'text': 'NA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1084, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'NA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1249, 'end': 1251, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'monoamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D015306'}]" +1122,48835,Modification by propranolol of cardiovascular effects of induced hypoglycaemia.,"The cardiovascular effects of hypoglycaemia, with and without beta-blockade, were compared in fourteen healthy men.

In particular, patients with severe neutropenia (less than 100/mm3) have shown a poor response to antibiotics. To overcome the adverse effects of neutropenia, tobramycin was given by continuous infusion and combined with intermittent carbenicillin. Tobramycin was given to a total daily dose of 300 mg/m2 and carbenicillin was given at a dose of 5 gm every four hours.

Pneumonia was the most common infection and 61% of 59 episodes were cured. Gram-negative bacilli were the most common causative organisms and 69% of these infections were cured. The most common pathogen was Klebsiella pneumoniae and this, together with Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, accounted for 74% of all gram-negative bacillary infections. Response was not influenced by the initial neutrophil count, with a 62% cure rate for 39 episodes associated with severe neutropenia.

Its use in pregnancy, however, is an open question as a number of detrimental side effects have been reported in the fetus and neonate. Ten patients and 12 pregnancies are reported where chronic propranolol has been administered. Five patients with serial pregnancies with and without propranolol therapy are also examined. Maternal, fetal, and neonatal complications are examined. An attempt is made to differentiate drug-related complications from maternal disease--related complications. We conclude that previously reported hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, polycythemia, neonatal apnea, and bradycardia are not invariable and cannot be statistically correlated with chronic propranolol therapy. Growth retardation, however, appears to be significant in both of our series.","[{'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'Propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 375, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 465, 'end': 476, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'hypoglycemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 708, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D007003'}, {'text': 'hyperbilirubinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 722, 'end': 740, 'mesh': 'D006932'}, {'text': 'polycythemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 742, 'end': 754, 'mesh': 'D011086'}, {'text': 'neonatal apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 756, 'end': 770, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 776, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 859, 'end': 870, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'Growth retardation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 880, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D005317'}]" +1128,611664,Use of propranolol in the treatment of idiopathic orthostatic hypotension.,"Five patients with idiopathic orthostatic hypotension who had physiologic and biochemical evidence of severe autonomic dysfunction were included in the study. They all exhibited markedly reduced plasma catecholamines and plasma renin activity in both recumbent and upright positions and had marked hypersensitivity to the pressor effects of infused norepinephrine. Treatment with propanolol administered intravenously (1-5 mg) produced increases in supine and upright blood pressure in 4 of the 5 individuals with rises ranging from 11/6 to 22/11 mmHg. Chronic oral administration of propranolol (40-160 mg/day) also elevated the blood pressures of these individuals with increases in the order of 20-35/15-25 mmg being observed. In 1 patient, marked hypertension was induced by propranolol and the drug had to be withdrawn. It otherwise was well tolerated and no important side effects were observed. Treatment has been continued in 3 individuals for 6-13 months with persistence of the pressor effect, although there appears to have been some decrease in the degree of response with time. Hemodynamic measurements in 1 of the patients demonstrated an increase in total peripheral resistance and essentially no change in cardiac output following propranolol therapy. The studies suggest that propranolol is a useful drug in selected patients with severe idiopathic orthostatic hypotension.","[{'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 7, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'idiopathic orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'C544351'}, {'text': 'idiopathic orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 94, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'C544351'}, {'text': 'catecholamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 277, 'end': 291, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 373, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 424, 'end': 438, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'propanolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 455, 'end': 465, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 659, 'end': 670, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 826, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 854, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1322, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1379, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'idiopathic orthostatic hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'C544351'}]" +1129,612112,Total intravenous anesthesia with etomidate. III. Some observations in adults.,"An investigation was undertaken to determine the dosage of etomidate required to maintain sleep in adults undergoing surgery under regional local anesthesia. Premedication of diazepam 10 mg and atropine 0.5 mg was given, and sleep was induced and maintained by intermittent intravenous injections of etomidate 0.1/mg/kg, given whenever the patient would open his eyes on request. A mean overall dose of etomidate 17.4 microgram/kg/min. was required to maintain sleep, but great individual variation occurred, with older patients requiring less drug. The investigation was discontinued after 18 patients because of the frequency and intensity of side-effects, particularly pain and myoclonia, which caused the technique to be abandoned in two cases. It is considered unlikely that etomidate will prove to be the hypnotic of choice for a totally intravenous anesthetic technique in adults because of the high incidence of myoclonia after prolonged administration. In several patients uncontrollable muscle movements persisted for many minutes after complete recovery of consciousness.","[{'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 254, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 273, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 379, 'end': 388, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 491, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 751, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'myoclonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D009207'}, {'text': 'etomidate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 859, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D005045'}, {'text': 'myoclonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 999, 'end': 1008, 'mesh': 'D009207'}]" +1130,689020,"A method for the measurement of tremor, and a comparison of the effects of tocolytic beta-mimetics.","A method permitting measurement of finger tremor as a displacement-time curve is described, using a test system with simple amplitude calibration. The coordinates of the inversion points of the displacement-time curves were transferred through graphical input equipment to punched tape. By means of a computer program, periods and amplitudes of tremor oscillations were calculated and classified. The event frequency for each class of periods and amplitudes was determined. The actions of fenoterol-hydrobromide, ritodrin-HCl and placebo given to 10 healthy subjects by intravenous infusion in a double-blind crossover study were tested by this method. At therapeutic doses both substances raised the mean tremor amplitude to about three times the control level. At the same time, the mean period within each class of amplitudes shortened by 10--20 ms, whereas the mean periods calculated from all oscillations together did not change significantly. After the end of fenoterol-hydrobromide infusion, tremor amplitudes decreased significantly faster than those following ritodrin-HCl infusion.","[{'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 445, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'fenoterol-hydrobromide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 589, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'D005280'}, {'text': 'ritodrin-HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 613, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D012312'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 806, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'fenoterol-hydrobromide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1067, 'end': 1089, 'mesh': 'D005280'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'ritodrin-HCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'D012312'}]" +1131,733189,Bilateral retinal artery and choriocapillaris occlusion following the injection of long-acting corticosteroid suspensions in combination with other drugs: I.

With a D-glucarate of a fixed size of dose, approximately the same degree of protection was obtained against renal damages induced by different basic antibiotics despite large disparities in administration doses of different antibiotics. D-Glucarates had the ability to prevent renal damage but not to cure it. Rats excreted acidic urine when they were spared from renal lesions by monosaccharides. The reduction effect of D-glucarates against nephrotoxicity of basic antibiotics was discussed.","[{'text': 'D-Glucarates', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 63, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Dehydrated', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D003681'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 107, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 157, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': '2,5-di-O-acetyl-D-glucaro-1,4-6,3-dilactone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 253, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'C038936'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 320, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'kanamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 345, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D007612'}, {'text': 'D-glucarates', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 406, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'saccharic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 438, 'end': 452, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'hexauronic acids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 454, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D006603'}, {'text': 'hexaaldonic acids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 492, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'sugar alcohols', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 562, 'mesh': 'D013402'}, {'text': 'TCA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 581, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D002952'}, {'text': 'D-Glucarates', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 619, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 655, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 718, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'D-Glucarates', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 803, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'D-glucarate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 824, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'renal damages', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 926, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'D-Glucarates', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1067, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1107, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'renal lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1182, 'end': 1195, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'monosaccharides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1199, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'D009005'}, {'text': 'D-glucarates', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1240, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D005937'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1275, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +1137,946593,Paraplegia following intrathecal methotrexate: report of a case and review of the literature.,"A patient who developed paraplegia following the intrathecal instillation of methotrexate is discribed. The ten previously reported cases of this unusual complication are reviewed. The following factors appear to predispose to the development of this complication: abnormal cerebrospinal dynamics related to the presence of central nervous system leukemia, and epidural cerebrospinal leakage; elevated cerebrospinal fluid methothexate concentration related to abnormal cerebrospinal fluid dynamics and to inappropriately high methotrexate doses based on body surface area calculations in older children and adults; the presence of neurotoxic preservatives in commercially available methotrexate preparations and diluents; and the use of methotrexate diluents of unphysiologic pH, ionic content and osmolarity. The role of methotrexate contaminants, local folate deficiency, and cranial irradiation in the pathogenesis of intrathecal methotrexate toxicity is unclear. The incidence of neurotoxicity may be reduced by employing lower doses of methotrexate in the presence of central nervous system leukemia, in older children and adults, and in the presence of epidural leakage. Only preservative-free methotrexate in Elliott's B Solution at a concentration of not more than 1 mg/ml should be used for intrathecal administration. Periodic monitoring of cerebruspinal fluid methotrexate levels may be predictive of the development of serious neurotoxicity.","[{'text': 'Paraplegia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D010264'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'paraplegia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D010264'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'central nervous system leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 418, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D002493'}, {'text': 'methothexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 620, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 725, 'end': 735, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 776, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 831, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 916, 'end': 928, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'folate deficiency', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 949, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'C536409'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1040, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'central nervous system leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1198, 'mesh': 'D002493'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'methotrexate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1477, 'mesh': 'D008727'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1546, 'mesh': 'D020258'}]" +1138,978847,Centrally mediated cardiovascular effects of intracisternal application of carbachol in anesthetized rats.,"The pressor response to the intracisternal (i.c.) injection of carbachol (1 mug) in anesthetized rats was analyzed. This response was significantly reduced by the intravenous (i.v.) injection of guanethidine (5 mg), hexamethonium (10 mg) or phentolamine (5 mg), and conversely, potentiated by i.v. desmethylimipramine (0.3 mg), while propranolol (0.5 mg) i.v. selectively inhibited the enlargement of pulse pressure and the tachycardia following i.c. carbachol (1 mug). On the other hand, the pressor response to i.c. carbachol (1 mug) was almost completely blocked by i.c. atropine (3 mug) or hexamethonium (500 mug), and significantly reduced by i.c. chlorpromazine (50 mug) but significantly potentiated by i.c. desmethylimipramine (30 mug). The pressor response to i.c. carbachol (1 mug) remained unchanged after sectioning of the bilateral cervical vagal nerves but disappeared after sectioning of the spinal cord (C7-C8).

In the intact male and female rat, no direct relationship was observed between dose of tetracycline and hepatic accumulation of triglyceride. With provision of adequate oleic acid as a substrate for the isolated perfused liver, a direct relationship was observed between dose of tetracycline and both accumulation of triglyceride in the liver and depression of output of triglyceride by livers from male and female rats. Marked differences were observed between female and male rats with regard to base line (control) hepatic concentration of triglyceride and output of triglyceride. Accumulation of hepatic triglyceride, as a per cent of control values, in response to graded doses of tetracycline, did not differ significantly between male, female and pregnant rat livers. However, livers from female, and especially pregnant female rats, were strikingly resistant to the effects of tetracycline on depression of output of triglyceride under these experimental conditions. These differences between the sexes could not be related to altered disposition of tetracycline or altered uptake of oleic acid. Depressed hepatic secretion of triglyceride accounted only for 30 to 50% of accumulated hepatic triglyceride, indicating that additional mechanisms must be involved in the production of the triglyceride-rich fatty liver in response to tetracycline.","[{'text': 'Fatty liver', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D005234'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D013752'}, {'text': 'fatty liver', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D005234'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D013752'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 393, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D013752'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 434, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'oleic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D019301'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 597, 'mesh': 'D013752'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 653, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 677, 'end': 689, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 861, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 876, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 914, 'end': 926, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 992, 'end': 1004, 'mesh': 'D013752'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1203, 'mesh': 'D013752'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1217, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1243, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1364, 'end': 1376, 'mesh': 'D013752'}, {'text': 'oleic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1398, 'end': 1408, 'mesh': 'D019301'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1441, 'end': 1453, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1518, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'triglyceride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1600, 'end': 1612, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'fatty liver', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1618, 'end': 1629, 'mesh': 'D005234'}, {'text': 'tetracycline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1645, 'end': 1657, 'mesh': 'D013752'}]" +1141,1280054,Fatal myeloencephalopathy due to intrathecal vincristine administration.,"Vincristine was accidentally given intrathecally to a child with leukaemia, producing sensory and motor dysfunction followed by encephalopathy and death.

After determining the bupivacaine AD50 (the concentration of bupivacaine that caused 50% of all beating rat heart myocyte cultures to become arrhythmic), we determined the effect of 1-hour progesterone HCl exposure on myocyte contractile rhythm. Each concentration of progesterone (6.25, 12.5, 25, and 50 micrograms/ml) caused a significant and concentration-dependent reduction in the AD50 for bupivacaine. Estradiol treatment also increased the arrhythmogenicity of bupivacaine in myocyte cultures, but was only one fourth as potent as progesterone. Neither progesterone nor estradiol effects on bupivacaine arrhythmogenicity were potentiated by epinephrine. Chronic progesterone pretreatment (5 mg/kg/day for 21 days) caused a significant increase in bupivacaine arrhythmogenicity in intact pentobarbital-anesthetized rats. There was a significant decrease in the time to onset of arrhythmia as compared with control nonprogesterone-treated rats (6.2 +/- 1.3 vs. 30.8 +/- 2.5 min, mean +/- SE). The results of this study indicate that progesterone can potentiate bupivacaine arrhythmogenicity both in vivo and in vitro.

Added in vitro to rat cortical membrane preparation, abecarnil increased [3H]GABA binding, enhanced muscimol-stimulated 36Cl- uptake and reduced the binding of t-[35S]butylbicyclophosphorothionate ([35S]TBPS). These effects were similar to those induced by diazepam, whereas the partial agonist Ro 16-6028 (tert-butyl-(S)-8-bromo-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-9-oxo-9H- imidazo[1,5-a]-pyrrolo-[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-1-carboxylate) showed very weak efficacy in these biochemical tests. After i.p. injection to rats, abecarnil and diazepam decreased in a time-dependent and dose-related (0.25-20 mg/kg i.p.) manner [35S]TBPS binding measured ex vivo in the cerebral cortex. Moreover, both drugs at the dose of 0.5 mg/kg antagonized completely the convulsant activity and the increase of [35S]TBPS binding induced by isoniazide (350 mg/kg s.c.) as well as the increase of [35S]TBPS binding induced by foot-shock stress. To better correlate the biochemical and the pharmacological effects, we studied the action of abecarnil on [35S]TBPS binding, exploratory motility and on isoniazid-induced biochemical and pharmacological effects in mice. In these animals, abecarnil produced a paralleled dose-dependent (0.05-1 mg/kg i.p.) reduction of both motor behavior and cortical [35S]TBPS binding. Moreover, 0.05 mg/kg of this beta-carboline reduced markedly the increase of [35S]TBPS binding and the convulsions induced by isoniazid (200 mg/kg s.c.).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'gamma-aminobutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'beta-carboline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D002243'}, {'text': 'abecarnil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 158, 'end': 167, 'mesh': 'C062769'}, {'text': 'beta-carboline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 199, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D002243'}, {'text': 'isopropyl-6- benzyloxy-4-methoxymethyl-beta-carboline-3-carboxylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 225, 'end': 292, 'mesh': 'C062769'}, {'text': 'abecarrnil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 294, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'C062769'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'gamma-aminobutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 443, 'end': 466, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 468, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'abecarnil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 573, 'end': 582, 'mesh': 'C062769'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 601, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'muscimol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 620, 'end': 628, 'mesh': 'D009118'}, {'text': 't-[35S]butylbicyclophosphorothionate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'C037476'}, {'text': '[35S]TBPS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 718, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'C037476'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 777, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'Ro 16-6028', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 815, 'end': 825, 'mesh': 'C054626'}, {'text': 'tert-butyl-(S)-8-bromo-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-9-oxo-9H- imidazo[1,5-a]-pyrrolo-[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-1-carboxylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 827, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'C054626'}, {'text': 'abecarnil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1033, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'C062769'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1047, 'end': 1055, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': '[35S]TBPS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1131, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'C037476'}, {'text': '[35S]TBPS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1303, 'end': 1312, 'mesh': 'C037476'}, {'text': 'isoniazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1332, 'end': 1342, 'mesh': 'D007538'}, {'text': '[35S]TBPS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1387, 'end': 1396, 'mesh': 'C037476'}, {'text': 'abecarnil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1529, 'end': 1538, 'mesh': 'C062769'}, {'text': '[35S]TBPS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1542, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'C037476'}, {'text': 'isoniazid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1589, 'end': 1598, 'mesh': 'D007538'}, {'text': 'abecarnil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1674, 'end': 1683, 'mesh': 'C062769'}, {'text': 'beta-carboline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1835, 'end': 1849, 'mesh': 'D002243'}, {'text': '[35S]TBPS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1883, 'end': 1892, 'mesh': 'C037476'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1909, 'end': 1920, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'isoniazid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1932, 'end': 1941, 'mesh': 'D007538'}]" +1147,1395192,Recurrent myocardial infarction in a postpartum patient receiving bromocriptine.,"Myocardial infarction in puerperium is infrequently reported.

The magnitude of the hypotensive effect of levodopa was concentration dependent and was fit to an Emax model in fluctuating responders. Stable responders demonstrated a small hypotensive response. Baseline blood pressures were higher in fluctuating patients; a higher baseline blood pressure correlated with greater hypotensive effects. Antiparkinsonian effects of levodopa temporally correlated with blood pressure changes. Phenylalanine, a large neutral amino acid (LNAA) competing with levodopa for transport across the blood-brain barrier, reduced the hypotensive and antiparkinsonian effects of levodopa.

For patients in sinus rhythm and heart failure the situation is less clear. Digoxin has a narrow therapeutic:toxic ratio and concentrations are affected by a number of drugs. Also, digoxin has undesirable effects such as increasing peripheral resistance and myocardial demands, and causing arrhythmias. There is a paucity of data from well-designed trials. The trials that are available are generally small with limitations in design and these show variation in patient benefit. More convincing evidence is required showing that digoxin improves symptoms or exercise capacity. Furthermore, no trial has had sufficient power to evaluate mortality. Pooled analysis of the effects of other inotropic drugs shows an excess mortality and there is a possibility that digoxin may increase mortality after myocardial infarction (MI). Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors should be used first as they are safer, do not require blood level monitoring, modify progression of disease, relieve symptoms, improve exercise tolerance and reduce mortality. Caution should be exercised in using digoxin until large mortality trials are completed showing either benefit or harm.

Because ideal lipid targets were not reached (low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol less than 130 mg/dl, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol greater than 35 mg/dl, or total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol less than 4.5 mg/dl) with diet plus a single drug, gemfibrozil (1.2 g/day)-lovastatin (primarily 20 or 40 mg) treatment was given. Follow-up visits were scheduled with 2-drug therapy every 6 to 8 weeks, an average of 10.3 visits per patient, with 741 batteries of 6 liver function tests and 714 creatine phosphokinase levels measured. Only 1 of the 4,446 liver function tests (0.02%), a gamma glutamyl transferase, was greater than or equal to 3 times the upper normal limit. Of the 714 creatine phosphokinase levels, 9% were high; only 1 (0.1%) was greater than or equal to 3 times the upper normal limit. With 2-drug therapy, mean total cholesterol decreased 22% from 255 to 200 mg/dl, triglyceride levels decreased 35% from 236 to 154 mg/dl, LDL cholesterol decreased 26% from 176 to 131 mg/dl, and the total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio decreased 24% from 7.1 to 5.4, all p less than or equal to 0.0001.

The lesions were placed via bilateral microinjections of 30 nmol/200 nl N-methyl-D-aspartic acid. The restimulation of this area with N-methyl-D-aspartic acid 15 days postlesion failed to produce a pressor response. One day postlesion, the resting mean arterial pressure was significantly decreased in lesioned rats when compared with sham rats (100 +/- 7 versus 173 +/- 4 mm Hg, p less than 0.05). Fifteen days later, the lesioned group still showed values significantly lower than the sham group (150 +/- 6 versus 167 +/- 5 mm Hg, p less than 0.05). No significant heart rate differences were observed between the sham and lesioned groups. The ganglionic blocker trimethaphan (5 mg/kg i.v.) caused similar reductions in mean arterial pressure in both lesioned and sham groups. The trimethaphan-induced hypotension was accompanied by a significant bradycardia in lesioned rats (-32 +/- 13 beats per minute) but a tachycardia in sham rats (+33 +/- 12 beats per minute) 1 day postlesion. Therefore, rostral ventrolateral medulla neurons appear to play a significant role in maintaining hypertension in conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Additionally, in models of prolonged status epilepticus the pars reticulata of substantia nigra (SNR) suffers from a massive lesion which may arise from a massive metabolic derangement and hyperexcitation developing in the activated SNR. In this study, status epilepticus was induced by systemic injection of pilocarpine in rats. The neuropathology of SNR was investigated using immunohistochemical techniques with the major emphasis on the time-course of changes in neurons and astrocytes. Animals surviving 20, 30, 40, 60 min, 2, 3, 6 hours, 1, 2, and 3 days after induction of status epilepticus were perfusion-fixed, and brains processed for immunohistochemical staining of SNR. Nissl-staining and antibodies against the neuron-specific calcium-binding protein, parvalbumin, served to detect neuronal damage in SNR. Antibodies against the astroglia-specific cytoskeletal protein, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and against the glial calcium-binding protein, S-100 protein, were used to assess the status of astrocytes. Immunohistochemical staining for serum-albumin and immunoglobulins in brain tissue was taken as indicator of blood-brain barrier disturbances and vasogenic edema formation. Immunohistochemical staining indicated loss of GFAP-staining already at 30 min after induction of seizures in an oval focus situated in the center of SNR while sparing medial and lateral aspects. At 1 h there was additional vacuolation in S-100 protein staining. By 2 hours, parvalbumin-staining changed in the central SNR indicating neuronal damage, and Nissl-staining visualized some neuronal distortion. Staining for serum-proteins occurred in a patchy manner throughout the forebrain during the first hours. By 6 h, vasogenic edema covered the lesioned SNR. By 24 h, glial and neuronal markers indicated a massive lesion in the center of SNR. By 48-72 h, astrocytes surrounding the lesion increased in size, and polymorphic phagocytotic cells invaded the damaged area. In a further group of animals surviving 1 to 5 days, conventional paraffin-sections confirmed the neuronal and glial damage of SNR. Additional pathology of similar quality was found in the globus pallidus. Since astrocytes were always damaged in parallel with neurons in SNR it is proposed that the anatomical and functional interrelationship between neurons and astrocytes is particularly tight in SNR. Both cell elements may suffer in common from metabolic disturbance and neurotransmitter dysfunction as occur during massive status epilepticus.","[{'text': 'Damage of substantia nigra pars reticulata', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 50, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 88, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'epileptic seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 252, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'prolonged status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 307, 'end': 335, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'metabolic derangement', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 443, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D008659'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 551, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 589, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 860, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1021, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'neuronal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'vasogenic edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1458, 'end': 1473, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1583, 'end': 1591, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neuronal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1819, 'end': 1834, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'vasogenic edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2005, 'end': 2020, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'lesioned SNR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2033, 'end': 2045, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'damage of SNR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2375, 'end': 2388, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'neurotransmitter dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2733, 'end': 2761, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2786, 'end': 2804, 'mesh': 'D013226'}]" +1160,1760851,Reduced cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin given in the form of N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide conjugates: and experimental study in the rat.,"A rat model was used to evaluate the general acute toxicity and the late cardiotoxicity of 4 mg/kg doxorubicin (DOX) given either as free drug or in the form of three N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) copolymer conjugates. In these HPMA copolymers, DOX was covalently bound via peptide linkages that were either non-biodegradable (Gly-Gly) or degradable by lysosomal proteinases (Gly-Phe-Leu-Gly). In addition, one biodegradable conjugate containing galactosamine was used; this residue was targeted to the liver. Over the first 3 weeks after the i.v. administration of free and polymer-bound DOX, all animals showed a transient reduction in body weight. However, the maximal reduction in body weight seen in animals that received polymer-bound DOX (4 mg/kg) was significantly lower than that observed in those that received free DOX (4 mg/kg) or a mixture of the unmodified parent HPMA copolymer and free DOX (4 mg/kg; P less than 0.01). Throughout the study (20 weeks), deaths related to cardiotoxicity were observed only in animals that received either free DOX or the mixture of HPMA copolymer and free DOX; in these cases, histological investigations revealed marked changes in the heart that were consistent with DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Sequential measurements of cardiac output in surviving animals that received either free DOX or the mixture of HPMA copolymer and free DOX showed a reduction of approximately 30% in function beginning at the 4th week after drug administration. The heart rate in these animals was approximately 12% lower than that measured in age-matched control rats (P less than 0.05). Animals that were given the HPMA copolymer conjugates containing DOX exhibited no significant change in cardiac output throughout the study (P less than 0.05). In addition, no significant histological change was observed in the heart of animals that received DOX in the form of HPMA copolymer conjugates and were killed at the end of the study. However, these animals had shown a significant increase in heart rate beginning at 8 weeks after drug administration (P less than 0.01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)","[{'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 8, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 191, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 213, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 239, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 252, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 307, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'HPMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 342, 'end': 346, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'HPMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 379, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 396, 'end': 399, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Gly-Phe-Leu-Gly', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 527, 'end': 542, 'mesh': 'C504380'}, {'text': 'galactosamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D005688'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 740, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 892, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 977, 'end': 980, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'HPMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1029, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1056, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1137, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1208, 'end': 1211, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'HPMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1234, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1257, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1366, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1378, 'end': 1392, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1486, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'HPMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1505, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1529, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'HPMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1793, 'end': 1797, 'mesh': 'C032976'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1830, 'end': 1833, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'DOX', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2024, 'end': 2027, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'HPMA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2043, 'end': 2047, 'mesh': 'C032976'}]" +1161,1779253,"Topical 0.025% capsaicin in chronic post-herpetic neuralgia: efficacy, predictors of response and long-term course.","In order to evaluate the efficacy, time-course of action and predictors of response to topical capsaicin, 39 patients with chronic post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN), median duration 24 months, were treated with 0.025% capsaicin cream for 8 weeks. During therapy the patients rated their pain on a visual analogue scale (VAS) and a verbal outcome scale. A follow-up investigation was performed 10-12 months after study onset on the patients who had improved. Nineteen patients (48.7%) substantially improved after the 8-week trial; 5 (12.8%) discontinued therapy due to side-effects such as intolerable capsaicin-induced burning sensations (4) or mastitis (1); 15 (38.5%) reported no benefit. The decrease in VAS ratings was significant after 2 weeks of continuous application. Of the responders 72.2% were still improved at the follow-up; only one-third of them had continued application irregularly. Treatment effect was not dependent on patient's age, duration or localization of PHN (trigeminal involvement was excluded), sensory disturbance or pain character. Treatment response was not correlated with the incidence, time-course or severity of capsaicin-induced burning. If confirmed in controlled trials, the long-term results of this open, non-randomized study might indicate that the analgesic effect of capsaicin in PHN is mediated by both interference with neuropeptide metabolism and morphological changes (perhaps degeneration) of nociceptive afferents.","[{'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 15, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'post-herpetic neuralgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 36, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D051474'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 220, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'post-herpetic neuralgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 247, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D051474'}, {'text': 'PHN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 272, 'end': 275, 'mesh': 'D051474'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 330, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 399, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 714, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'mastitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 758, 'end': 766, 'mesh': 'D008413'}, {'text': 'PHN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D051474'}, {'text': 'sensory disturbance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1137, 'end': 1156, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1160, 'end': 1164, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1270, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'capsaicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1424, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'D002211'}, {'text': 'PHN', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1437, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D051474'}]" +1162,1837756,"Serotonin reuptake inhibitors, paranoia, and the ventral basal ganglia.","Antidepressants have previously been associated with paranoid reactions in psychiatric patients.

Elements common to these cases included a history of paranoid symptomatology and the concomitant occurrence of depressive and psychotic symptoms. Complicated depressive disorders (including atypicality of course and symptomatology, chronicity, psychosis, bipolarity, and secondary onset in the course of a primary psychosis) may present particular vulnerability to paranoid exacerbations associated with serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Although the pharmacology and neurobiology of paranoia remain cryptic, several mechanisms, including 5HT3 receptor-mediated dopamine release, beta-noradrenergic receptor downregulation, or GABAB receptor upregulation acting in the vicinity of the ventral basal ganglia (possibly in lateral orbitofrontal or anterior cingulate circuits), might apply to this phenomenon. These cases call attention to possible paranoid exacerbations with serotonin reuptake blockers in select patients and raise neurobiological considerations regarding paranoia.","[{'text': 'Serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 9, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'paranoia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 31, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'paranoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'paranoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 183, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 214, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 254, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'amitriptyline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 259, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D000639'}, {'text': 'paranoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 345, 'end': 353, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'depressive disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 450, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 536, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'psychosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 606, 'end': 615, 'mesh': 'D011605'}, {'text': 'paranoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 657, 'end': 665, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 696, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'paranoia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 773, 'end': 781, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 851, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'paranoid', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'paranoia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1269, 'mesh': 'D010259'}]" +1163,1858969,Five cases of encephalitis during treatment of loiasis with diethylcarbamazine.,"Five cases of encephalitis following treatment with diethylcarbamazine (DEC) were observed in Congolese patients with Loa loa filariasis.

The notable fact was that this complication occurred in three patients hospitalized before treatment began, with whom particularly strict therapeutic precautions were taken, i.e., initial dose less than 10 mg of DEC, very gradual dose increases, and associated anti-allergic treatment. This type of drug-induced complication may not be that uncommon in highly endemic regions. It occurs primarily, but not exclusively, in subjects presenting with a high microfilarial load.

The pathophysiology underlying this acute hepatic injury is unknown. This study was undertaken to determine whether oxidants are associated with the hepatic injury and to determine the relative value of several indirect methods of assessing oxidant exposure in vivo. Rats were subjected to a standardized intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Hepatic tissue was assayed for lipid peroxidation products and oxidized and reduced glutathione. There was no change in hepatic tissue total glutathione following intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Oxidized glutathione (GSSG) increased significantly following 30 and 60 min of reperfusion. There was no increase in any of the products of lipid peroxidation associated with this injury. An increase in GSSG within hepatic tissue during intestinal reperfusion suggests exposure of hepatocytes to an oxidant stress. The lack of a significant increase in products of lipid peroxidation suggests that the oxidant stress is of insufficient magnitude to result in irreversible injury to hepatocyte cell membranes. These data also suggest that the measurement of tissue GSSG may be a more sensitive indicator of oxidant stress than measurement of products of lipid peroxidation.","[{'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'reperfusion injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 60, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D015427'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 95, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'liver dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 131, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D017093'}, {'text': 'hepatic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 327, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'hepatic injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 434, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 601, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'reperfusion injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 610, 'end': 628, 'mesh': 'D015427'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'reperfusion injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 813, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D015427'}, {'text': 'Oxidized glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'D019803'}, {'text': 'GSSG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 855, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D019803'}, {'text': 'GSSG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1040, 'mesh': 'D019803'}, {'text': 'GSSG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1397, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D019803'}]" +1166,2021990,Diphenhydramine prevents the haemodynamic changes of cimetidine in ICU patients.,"Cimetidine, a histamine 2 (H2) antagonist, produces a decrease in arterial pressure due to vasodilatation, especially in critically ill patients.

We, therefore, investigated the effects of the histamine 1(H1) receptor antagonist, diphenhydramine, on the haemodynamic changes observed after cimetidine in ICU patients. Each patient was studied on two separate days. In a random fashion, they received cimetidine 200 mg iv on one day, and on the other, a pretreatment of diphenhydramine 40 mg iv with cimetidine 200 mg iv. In the non-pretreatment group, mean arterial pressure (MAP) decreased from 107.4 +/- 8.4 mmHg to 86.7 +/- 11.4 mmHg (P less than 0.01) two minutes after cimetidine. Also, systemic vascular resistance (SVR) decreased during the eight-minute observation period (P less than 0.01). In contrast, in the pretreatment group, little haemodynamic change was seen.

In contrast, cromakalim and pinacidil at all doses and nitroglycerin at doses higher than 0.3 micrograms/kg simultaneously and dose-dependently increased CxAD, coronary blood flow and heart rate and decreased coronary vascular resistance and aortic pressure. Cromakalim was approximately 8- to 9.5-fold more potent than pinacidil in increasing CxAD. Vasodilation of large and small coronary vessels and hypotension induced by cromakalim and pinacidil were not affected by prior combined beta adrenergic and muscarinic receptors blockade but drug-induced tachycardia was abolished. When circumflex artery blood flow was maintained constant, the increases in CxAD induced by cromakalim (10 micrograms/kg), pinacidil (30 micrograms/kg) and nitroglycerin (10 micrograms/kg) were reduced by 68 +/- 7, 54 +/- 9 and 1 +/- 1%, respectively. Thus, whereas nitroglycerin preferentially and flow-independently dilates large coronary arteries, cromakalim and pinacidil dilate both large and small coronary arteries and this effect is not dependent upon the simultaneous beta adrenoceptors-mediated rise in myocardial metabolic demand. Finally, two mechanisms at least, direct vasodilation and flow dependency, are involved in the cromakalim- and pinacidil-induced increase in CxAD.","[{'text': 'cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D020110'}, {'text': 'cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 147, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 183, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D020110'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'Nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 426, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 645, 'mesh': 'D020110'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'Cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 867, 'end': 877, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 928, 'end': 937, 'mesh': 'D020110'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1011, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1034, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1049, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D020110'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1162, 'end': 1173, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1281, 'end': 1291, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1312, 'end': 1321, 'mesh': 'D020110'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'nitroglycerin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1468, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1540, 'end': 1550, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1555, 'end': 1564, 'mesh': 'D020110'}, {'text': 'cromakalim', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1826, 'end': 1836, 'mesh': 'D019806'}, {'text': 'pinacidil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1842, 'end': 1851, 'mesh': 'D020110'}]" +1170,2217015,Mefenamic acid-induced neutropenia and renal failure in elderly females with hypothyroidism.,"We report mefenamic acid-induced non-oliguric renal failure and severe neutropenia occurring simultaneously in two elderly females.

In order to identify risk factors associated with the development of hypercalcemia, indirect parameters of intestinal calcium reabsorption and bone turnover rate in these 14 patients were compared with results in 14 eucalcemic patients matched for age, sex, length of time on dialysis, and etiology of renal disease. In addition to experiencing hypercalcemic episodes with peak calcium values of 2.7 to 3.8 mmol/L (10.7 to 15.0 mg/dL), patients in the hypercalcemic group exhibited a significant increase in the mean calcium concentration obtained during 6 months before the switch, compared with the mean value obtained during the 7 months of observation after the switch (2.4 +/- 0.03 to 2.5 +/- 0.03 mmol/L [9.7 +/- 0.2 to 10.2 +/- 0.1 mg/dL], P = 0.006). In contrast, eucalcemic patients exhibited no change in mean calcium values over the same time period (2.3 +/- 0.05 to 2.3 +/- 0.05 mmol/L [9.2 +/- 0.2 to 9.2 +/- 0.2 mg/dL]). CaCO3 dosage, calculated dietary calcium intake, and circulating levels of vitamin D metabolites were similar in both groups.

Methyldopa causes an autoimmune hemolytic anemia in a small percentage of patients who take the drug. We report a case of methyldopa-induced hemolytic anemia in a 15-year-old boy who presented to the emergency department with near-syncope. The boy had been treated with intravenous methyldopa during a trauma admission seven weeks prior to presentation. Evaluation revealed a hemoglobin of three grams, 3+ Coombs' test with polyspecific anti-human globulin and monospecific IgG reagents, and a warm reacting autoantibody. Transfusion and corticosteroid therapy resulted in a complete recovery of the patient. Emergency physicians treating children must be aware of this syndrome in order to diagnose and treat it correctly.

We therefore investigated the long-term safety of danazol by performing a retrospective chart review of 60 female patients with hereditary angioedema treated with danazol for a continuous period of 6 months or longer. The mean age of the patients was 35.2 years and the mean duration of therapy was 59.7 months. Virtually all patients experienced one or more adverse reactions. Menstrual abnormalities (79%), weight gain (60%), muscle cramps/myalgias (40%), and transaminase elevations (40%) were the most common adverse reactions. The drug was discontinued due to adverse reactions in 8 patients. No patient has died or suffered any apparent long-term sequelae that were directly attributable to the drug. We conclude that, despite a relatively high incidence of adverse reactions, danazol has proven to be remarkably safe over the long-term in this group of patients.","[{'text': 'danazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D003613'}, {'text': 'hereditary angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 46, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D054179'}, {'text': 'danazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 136, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D003613'}, {'text': 'danazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 291, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D003613'}, {'text': 'hereditary angioedema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 369, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D054179'}, {'text': 'danazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 404, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D003613'}, {'text': 'Menstrual abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 619, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D008599'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 650, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'muscle cramps', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D009120'}, {'text': 'myalgias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 683, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D063806'}, {'text': 'danazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1031, 'mesh': 'D003613'}]" +1174,2383364,Patient tolerance study of topical chlorhexidine diphosphanilate: a new topical agent for burns.,"Effective topical antimicrobial agents decrease infection and mortality in burn patients. Chlorhexidine phosphanilate (CHP), a new broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent, has been evaluated as a topical burn wound dressing in cream form, but preliminary clinical trials reported that it was painful upon application. This study compared various concentrations of CHP to determine if a tolerable concentration could be identified with retention of antimicrobial efficacy. Twenty-nine burn patients, each with two similar burns which could be separately treated, were given pairs of treatments at successive 12-h intervals over a 3-day period. One burn site was treated with each of four different CHP concentrations, from 0.25 per cent to 2 per cent, their vehicle, and 1 per cent silver sulphadiazine (AgSD) cream, an antimicrobial agent frequently used for topical treatment of burn wounds. The other site was always treated with AgSD cream. There was a direct relationship between CHP concentration and patients' ratings of pain on an analogue scale. The 0.25 per cent CHP cream was closest to AgSD in pain tolerance; however, none of the treatments differed statistically from AgSD or from each other. In addition, ease of application of CHP creams was less satisfactory than that of AgSD. It was concluded that formulations at or below 0.5 per cent CHP may prove acceptable for wound care, but the vehicle system needs pharmaceutical improvement to render it more tolerable and easier to use.","[{'text': 'chlorhexidine diphosphanilate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 35, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'burns', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D002056'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 145, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'burn', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 172, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D002056'}, {'text': 'Chlorhexidine phosphanilate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 187, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'CHP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 216, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'burn', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 296, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D002056'}, {'text': 'CHP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'burn', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 576, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D002056'}, {'text': 'burns', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 613, 'end': 618, 'mesh': 'D002056'}, {'text': 'burn', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 739, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D002056'}, {'text': 'CHP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 789, 'end': 792, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'silver sulphadiazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 873, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D012837'}, {'text': 'AgSD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 895, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'D012837'}, {'text': 'burn', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D002056'}, {'text': 'AgSD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D012837'}, {'text': 'CHP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1076, 'end': 1079, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1119, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'CHP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1167, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'AgSD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'D012837'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1197, 'end': 1201, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'AgSD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1277, 'mesh': 'D012837'}, {'text': 'CHP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'C048279'}, {'text': 'AgSD', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1380, 'end': 1384, 'mesh': 'D012837'}, {'text': 'CHP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1446, 'end': 1449, 'mesh': 'C048279'}]" +1175,2400986,Dose-dependent neurotoxicity of high-dose busulfan in children: a clinical and pharmacological study.,"Busulfan is known to be neurotoxic in animals and humans, but its acute neurotoxicity remains poorly characterized in children. We report here a retrospective study of 123 children (median age, 6.5 years) receiving high-dose busulfan in combined chemotherapy before bone marrow transplantation for malignant solid tumors, brain tumors excluded. Busulfan was given p.o., every 6 hours for 16 doses over 4 days. Two total doses were consecutively used: 16 mg/kg, then 600 mg/m2. The dose calculation on the basis of body surface area results in higher doses in young children than in older patients (16 to 28 mg/kg). Ninety-six patients were not given anticonvulsive prophylaxis; 7 (7.5%) developed seizures during the 4 days of the busulfan course or within 24 h after the last dosing. When the total busulfan dose was taken into account, there was a significant difference in terms of neurotoxicity incidence among patients under 16 mg/kg (1 of 57, 1.7%) and patients under 600 mg/m2 (6 of 39, 15.4%) (P less than 0.02). Twenty-seven patients were given a 600-mg/m2 busulfan total dose with continuous i.v. infusion of clonazepam; none had any neurological symptoms. Busulfan levels were measured by a gas chromatographic-mass spectrometry assay in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of 9 children without central nervous system disease under 600 mg/m2 busulfan with clonazepam:busulfan cerebrospinal fluid:plasma ratio was 1.39. This was significantly different (P less than 0.02) from the cerebrospinal fluid:plasma ratio previously defined in children receiving a 16-mg/kg total dose of busulfan. This study shows that busulfan neurotoxicity is dose-dependent in children and efficiently prevented by clonazepam. A busulfan dose calculated on the basis of body surface area, resulting in higher doses in young children, was followed by increased neurotoxicity, close to neurotoxicity incidence observed in adults. Since plasma pharmacokinetic studies showed a faster busulfan clearance in children than in adults, this new dose may approximate more closely the adult systemic exposure obtained after the usual 16-mg/kg total dose, with potential inferences in terms of anticancer or myeloablative effects. The busulfan dose in children and infants undergoing bone marrow transplantation should be reconsidered on the basis of pharmacokinetic studies.","[{'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'Busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 126, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 327, 'end': 335, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 416, 'end': 422, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'brain tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 424, 'end': 436, 'mesh': 'D001932'}, {'text': 'Busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 447, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 799, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 902, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 987, 'end': 1000, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'clonazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D002998'}, {'text': 'neurological symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1246, 'end': 1267, 'mesh': 'D009461'}, {'text': 'Busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1269, 'end': 1277, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'central nervous system disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1408, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D002493'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1463, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'clonazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'D002998'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1480, 'end': 1488, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1692, 'end': 1700, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1724, 'end': 1732, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1733, 'end': 1746, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'clonazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1806, 'end': 1816, 'mesh': 'D002998'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1820, 'end': 1828, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1951, 'end': 1964, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1975, 'end': 1988, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2072, 'end': 2080, 'mesh': 'D002066'}, {'text': 'busulfan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2315, 'end': 2323, 'mesh': 'D002066'}]" +1176,2429800,Histamine antagonists and d-tubocurarine-induced hypotension in cardiac surgical patients.,"Hemodynamic effects and histamine release by bolus injection of 0.35 mg/kg of d-tubocurarine were studied in 24 patients.

Histamine release occurred in most patients, the highest level 2 minutes after d-tubocurarine dosing. Group 1 had a moderate negative correlation between plasma histamine change and systemic vascular resistance (r = 0.58; P less than 0.05) not present in group 4. Prior dosing with antagonists partially prevented the fall in systemic vascular resistance. These data demonstrate that the hemodynamic changes associated with d-tubocurarine dosing are only partially explained by histamine release.

Its mechanism of action is not well understood although it has been proposed that lindane acts as a non-competitive antagonist at the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-A receptor. We studied the effect of lindane (150 mg/kg) on the GABAergic and dopaminergic systems by measuring the concentration of GABA, dopamine and its metabolites in 7 brain areas at the onset of seizures. All animals suffered tonic convulsions at 18.3 +/- 1.4 min after lindane administration. The concentration of GABA was only slightly but significantly decreased in the colliculi without modifications in the other areas.

Three major results are reported. First, pretreatment with MK-801 produced an effective and dose-dependent anticonvulsant action with the lithium-pilocarpine model but not with rats treated with pilocarpine alone, suggesting that different biochemical mechanisms control seizures in these two models. Second, the anticonvulsant effect of MK-801 in the lithium-pilocarpine model only occurred after initial periods of seizure activity. This observation is suggested to be an in vivo demonstration of the conclusion derived from in vitro experiments that MK-801 binding requires agonist-induced opening of the channel sites of the NMDA receptor. Third, although it is relatively easy to block seizures induced by lithium and pilocarpine by administration of anticonvulsants prior to pilocarpine, it is more difficult to terminate ongoing status epilepticus and block the lethality of the seizures. Administration of MK-801 30 or 60 min after pilocarpine, i.e., during status epilepticus, gradually reduced electrical and behavioral seizure activity and greatly enhanced the survival rate. These results suggest that activation of NMDA receptors plays an important role in status epilepticus and brain damage in the lithium-pilocarpine model. This was further supported by results showing that nonconvulsive doses of NMDA and pilocarpine were synergistic, resulting in status epilepticus and subsequent mortality.","[{'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 40, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 97, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'N-methyl-D-aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 142, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 144, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 227, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 263, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 275, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 335, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 402, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 481, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 489, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 538, 'end': 549, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 614, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 681, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 695, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 703, 'end': 714, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 760, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 896, 'end': 902, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1034, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1054, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1066, 'end': 1077, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1179, 'end': 1197, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1237, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1257, 'end': 1263, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1283, 'end': 1294, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1327, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1373, 'end': 1380, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1471, 'end': 1475, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1513, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'brain damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1548, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1556, 'end': 1563, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1564, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1657, 'end': 1661, 'mesh': 'D016202'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1666, 'end': 1677, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1709, 'end': 1727, 'mesh': 'D013226'}]" +1180,2614930,Nifedipine induced bradycardia in a patient with autonomic neuropathy.,"An 80 year old diabetic male with evidence of peripheral and autonomic neuropathy was admitted with chest pain.

Haloperidol decreased the incidence of cocaine-induced seizures at the two highest doses, but the lowering of the mortality rate did not reach statistical significance at any dose.

The mean arterial pressure was decreased from 86 +/- 5 (s.e. mean) mmHg to 52 +/- 1 mmHg (11.5 +/- 0.7 to 6.9 +/- 0.1 kPa) for 98 +/- 10 min in the halothane (H) group, from 79 +/- 5 to 53 +/- 1 mmHg (10.5 +/- 0.7 to 7.1 +/- 0.1 kPa) for 129 +/- 11 min in the enflurane (E) group, and from 80 +/- 4 to 49 +/- 1 mmHg (10.7 +/- 0.5 to 6.5 +/- 0.1 kPa) for 135 +/- 15 min in the isoflurane (I) group. The mean H concentration during hypotension in the inspiratory gas was 0.7 +/- 0.1 vol%, the mean E concentration 1.6 +/- 0.2 vol%, and the mean I concentration 1.0 +/- 0.1 vol%. In addition, the patients received fentanyl and d-tubocurarine. The initial dose of labetalol for lowering blood pressure was similar, 0.52-0.59 mg/kg, in all the groups. During hypotension, the heart rate was stable without tachy- or bradycardia. The operating conditions regarding bleeding were estimated in a double-blind manner, and did not differ significantly between the groups. During hypotension, the serum creatinine concentration rose significantly in all groups from the values before hypotension and returned postoperatively to the initial level in the other groups, except the isoflurane group. After hypotension there was no rebound phenomenon in either blood pressure or heart rate.

ACC-9653 is rapidly converted enzymatically to phenytoin in vivo. ACC-9653 and phenytoin sodium have equivalent anticonvulsant activity against seizures induced by maximal electroshock (MES) in mice following i.p., oral, or i.v. administration. The ED50 doses were 16 mg/kg for i.v. ACC-9653 and 8 mg/kg for i.v. phenytoin sodium. ACC-9653 and phenytoin sodium have similar antiarrhythmic activity against ouabain-induced ventricular tachycardia in anesthetized dogs. The total doses of ACC-9653 or phenytoin sodium necessary to convert the arrhythmia to a normal sinus rhythm were 24 +/- 6 and 14 +/- 3 mg/kg, respectively. Only phenytoin sodium displayed in vitro antiarrhythmic activity against strophanthidin-induced arrhythmias in guinea pig right atria. In anesthetized dogs, a high dose of ACC-9653 (31 mg/kg) was infused over 15, 20, and 30 min and the responses were compared to an equimolar dose of phenytoin sodium (21 mg/kg). The ACC-9653 and phenytoin sodium treatments produced similar marked reductions in diastolic blood pressure and contractile force (LVdP/dt). The maximum effects of each treatment occurred at the time of maximum phenytoin sodium levels. Acute toxicity studies of ACC-9653 and phenytoin sodium were carried out in mice, rats, rabbits, and dogs by i.v., i.m., and i.p. routes of administration. The systemic toxic signs of both agents were similar and occurred at approximately equivalent doses. Importantly, the local irritation of ACC-9653 was markedly less than phenytoin sodium following i.m. administration.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","[{'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 46, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'disodium phosphate ester', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 60, 'end': 84, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': '3-hydroxymethyl-5,5-diphenylhydantoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 88, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'C043104'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 199, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 246, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D010672'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 265, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 278, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 343, 'end': 351, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 530, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 543, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 605, 'end': 612, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 621, 'end': 644, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 686, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 698, 'end': 714, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 740, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 829, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'strophanthidin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 911, 'mesh': 'D013327'}, {'text': 'arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 996, 'end': 1004, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1108, 'end': 1124, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1154, 'end': 1170, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1348, 'end': 1364, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1387, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1399, 'end': 1407, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1412, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'ACC-9653', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1667, 'end': 1675, 'mesh': 'C043114'}, {'text': 'phenytoin sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1699, 'end': 1715, 'mesh': 'C043114'}]" +1187,2818777,Phenytoin induced fatal hepatic injury.,"A 61 year old female developed fatal hepatic failure after phenytoin administration.

Post-training administration of naloxone (3 mg/kg) as a single or as a split dose also attenuated the scopolamine-induced amnesia. Control experiments indicated that neither an increase in pain sensitivity (pre-training naloxone) nor an induced aversive state (post-training naloxone) appear to be responsible for the influence of naloxone on the scopolamine-induced retention deficit.

The initial response to the primary attack by the cyclophosphamide metabolites seems to be fragmentation of the luminal membrane. This damages the cellular barrier against the hypertonic urine. Subsequent breaks in the lateral cell membranes of the superficial cells and in all the plasma membranes of the intermediate and basal cells, intercellular and intracellular edema and disintegration of the desmosomes and hemidesmosomes lead to progressive degeneration and detachment of the epithelial cells with exposure and splitting of the basal membrane. The morphological changes of the endothelial cells, which become more pronounced in the later stages of the experiment, the involvement of blood vessels regardless of their diameter and the location-dependent extent of the damage indicate a direct type of damage which is preceded by a mediator-induced increase in permeability, the morphological correlate of which is the formation of gaps in the interendothelial cell connections on the venules. These changes can be effectively prevented by mesna.

Alfentanil 50 micrograms kg-1 effectively inhibits the incidence and intensity of suxamethonium-induced muscle fasciculations; moreover, intragastric pressure remains at its control value.","[{'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 112, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'thiopentone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 369, 'end': 380, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 423, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 455, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 523, 'end': 533, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 574, 'end': 595, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'H2O', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 666, 'mesh': 'D014867'}, {'text': 'alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'H2O', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 719, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D014867'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 804, 'end': 825, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 951, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D005207'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 983, 'end': 996, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'Alfentanil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D015760'}, {'text': 'suxamethonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1113, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'muscle fasciculations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D005207'}]" +1200,3155884,Acute insulin treatment normalizes the resistance to the cardiotoxic effect of isoproterenol in streptozotocin diabetic rats. A morphometric study of isoproterenol induced myocardial fibrosis.,"The acute effect of insulin treatment on the earlier reported protective effect of streptozotocin diabetes against the cardiotoxic effect of high doses of isoproterenol (ISO) was investigated in rats. Thirty to 135 min after the injection of crystalline insulin, ISO was given subcutaneously and when ISO induced fibrosis in the myocardium was morphometrically analyzed 7 days later, a highly significant correlation (r = 0.83, 2 p = 0.006) to the slope of the fall in blood glucose after insulin treatment appeared. The myocardial content of catecholamines was estimated in these 8 day diabetic rats. The norepinephrine content was significantly increased while epinephrine remained unchanged. An enhanced sympathetic nervous system activity with a consequent down regulation of the myocardial beta-adrenergic receptors could, therefore, explain this catecholamine resistance. The rapid reversion after insulin treatment excludes the possibility that streptozotocin in itself causes the ISO resistance and points towards a direct insulin effect on myocardial catecholamine sensitivity in diabetic rats. The phenomenon described might elucidate pathogenetic mechanisms behind toxic myocardial cell degeneration and may possibly have relevance for acute cardiovascular complications in diabetic patients.","[{'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 110, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 119, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 150, 'end': 163, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 183, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 276, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 291, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 312, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'ISO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 363, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'ISO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'ISO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 497, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 506, 'end': 514, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 668, 'end': 675, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'catecholamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 736, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'diabetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 780, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1045, 'end': 1058, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1145, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'ISO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1181, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'catecholamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1253, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'diabetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'diabetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1478, 'end': 1486, 'mesh': 'D003920'}]" +1201,3191389,Differential effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on seizures produced by pilocarpine in rats.,"The muscarinic cholinergic agonist pilocarpine induces in rats seizures and status epilepticus followed by widespread damage to the forebrain.

Pretreatment of rats with sodium salicylate, ED50 103 mg/kg (60-174), and phenylbutazone, 59 mg/kg (50-70) converted the non-convulsant dose of pilocarpine, 200 mg/kg, to a convulsant one. Indomethacin, 1-10 mg/kg, and ibuprofen, 10-100 mg/kg, failed to modulate seizures produced by pilocarpine. Mefenamic acid, 26 (22-30) mg/kg, prevented seizures and protected rats from seizure-related brain damage induced by pilocarpine, 380 mg/kg.

In six of eight patients (75%) who we treated for recurrent or resistant glioma, sudden severe neurologic deterioration occurred. This developed a median of 9 days after initiation of high-dose etoposide therapy. Significant clinical manifestations have included confusion, papilledema, somnolence, exacerbation of motor deficits, and sharp increase in seizure activity. These abnormalities resolved rapidly after initiation of high-dose intravenous dexamethasone therapy. In all patients, computerized tomographic (CT) brain scans demonstrated stability in tumor size and peritumor edema when compared with pretransplant scans.

The favorable efficacy and tolerability profiles of these agents make them attractive therapeutic modalities. Clinical applications of calcium channel blockers parallel their tissue selectivity. In contrast to verapamil and diltiazem, which are roughly equipotent in their actions on the heart and vascular smooth muscle, the dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers are a group of potent peripheral vasodilator agents that exert minimal electrophysiologic effects on cardiac nodal or conduction tissue. As the first dihydropyridine available for use in the United States, nifedipine controls angina and hypertension with minimal depression of cardiac function. Additional members of this group of calcium channel blockers have been studied for a variety of indications for which they may offer advantages over current therapy. Once or twice daily dosage possible with nitrendipine and nisoldipine offers a convenient administration schedule, which encourages patient compliance in long-term therapy of hypertension. The coronary vasodilating properties of nisoldipine have led to the investigation of this agent for use in angina. Selectivity for the cerebrovascular bed makes nimodipine potentially useful in the treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage, migraine headache, dementia, and stroke. In general, the dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers are usually well tolerated, with headache, facial flushing, palpitations, edema, nausea, anorexia, and dizziness being the more common adverse effects.","[{'text': '1,4-dihydropyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'C038806'}, {'text': 'calcium channel blockers', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D002121'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 171, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'calcium channel blocking agents', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 234, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D002121'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 296, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'calcium channel blockers', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D002121'}, {'text': 'verapamil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 531, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'D014700'}, {'text': 'diltiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 545, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D004110'}, {'text': 'dihydropyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 647, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'C038806'}, {'text': 'calcium channel blockers', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D002121'}, {'text': 'dihydropyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 853, 'mesh': 'C038806'}, {'text': 'nifedipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 894, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D009543'}, {'text': 'angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 914, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D000787'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 925, 'end': 937, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'calcium channel blockers', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1043, 'mesh': 'D002121'}, {'text': 'nitrendipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1202, 'mesh': 'D009568'}, {'text': 'nisoldipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D015737'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1336, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'nisoldipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1378, 'end': 1389, 'mesh': 'D015737'}, {'text': 'angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1445, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'D000787'}, {'text': 'nimodipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1499, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'D009553'}, {'text': 'subarachnoid hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1549, 'end': 1572, 'mesh': 'D013345'}, {'text': 'migraine headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1591, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'dementia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1593, 'end': 1601, 'mesh': 'D003704'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1613, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'dihydropyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1646, 'mesh': 'C038806'}, {'text': 'calcium channel blockers', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1647, 'end': 1671, 'mesh': 'D002121'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1705, 'end': 1713, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'flushing', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1722, 'end': 1730, 'mesh': 'D005483'}, {'text': 'palpitations', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1732, 'end': 1744, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1746, 'end': 1751, 'mesh': 'D004487'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1753, 'end': 1759, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'anorexia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1761, 'end': 1769, 'mesh': 'D000855'}, {'text': 'dizziness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1775, 'end': 1784, 'mesh': 'D004244'}]" +1205,3323599,The enhancement of aminonucleoside nephrosis by the co-administration of protamine.,"An experimental model of focal segmental glomerular sclerosis (FSGS) was developed in rats by the combined administration of puromycin-aminonucleoside (AMNS) and protamine sulfate (PS).

Therefore, it is suggested that the administration of PS enhances the toxicity of AMNS on the glomerulus and readily produces progressive FSGS in rats resulting in the end-stage renal disease.","[{'text': 'aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 19, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 35, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'focal segmental glomerular sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 109, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'FSGS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 147, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'puromycin-aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 209, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'AMNS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 236, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'protamine sulfate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 246, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D011479'}, {'text': 'PS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 265, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D011479'}, {'text': 'AMNS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 376, 'end': 380, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 418, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D011479'}, {'text': 'nephrotic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 627, 'end': 645, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 658, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 698, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'AMNS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 822, 'end': 826, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 834, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D011479'}, {'text': 'FSGS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 909, 'end': 913, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'ruthenium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D012428'}, {'text': 'PS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1161, 'mesh': 'D011479'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1175, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'AMNS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1187, 'end': 1191, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'FSGS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1243, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'end-stage renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1296, 'mesh': 'D007676'}]" +1206,3339945,Theophylline neurotoxicity in pregnant rats.,The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether the neurotoxicity of theophylline is altered in advanced pregnancy. Sprague-Dawley rats that were 20 days pregnant and nonpregnant rats of the same age and strain received infusions of aminophylline until onset of maximal seizures which occurred after 28 and 30 minutes respectively. Theophylline concentrations at this endpoint in serum (total) and CSF were similar but serum (free) and brain concentrations were slightly different in pregnant rats. Theophylline serum protein binding determined by equilibrium dialysis was lower in pregnant rats. Fetal serum concentrations at onset of seizures in the mother were similar to maternal brain and CSF concentrations and correlated significantly with the former.

Intramedullary administration of clonidine, but not saline vehicle, caused a dose-dependent decrease in both the mean arterial pressure and the heart rate. The clonidine-induced hypotension was antagonized by prior spinal transection, but not bilateral vagotomy. On the other hand, the clonidine-induced bradycardia was antagonized by prior bilateral vagotomy, but not spinal transection. Furthermore, selective destruction of the spinal 5-HT nerves, produced by bilateral spinal injection of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine, reduced the magnitude of the vasodepressor or the bradycardiac responses to clonidine microinjected into the area near the ventrolateral surface of the medulla oblongata in rats. The data indicate that a bulbospinal serotonergic pathway is involved in development of clonidine-induced hypotension and bradycardia. The induced hypotension is brought about by a decrease in sympathetic efferent activity, whereas the induced bradycardia was due to an increase in vagal efferent activity.","[{'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 106, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 152, 'end': 161, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'urethane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 317, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D014520'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 505, 'end': 514, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 523, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 631, 'end': 640, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 649, 'end': 660, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 783, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5,7-dihydroxytryptamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 861, 'mesh': 'D015116'}, {'text': 'bradycardiac', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 925, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 939, 'end': 948, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'clonidine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1130, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D003000'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1175, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1297, 'mesh': 'D001919'}]" +1211,3439580,Hypertension in neuroblastoma induced by imipramine.,"Hypertension is a well-known finding in some patients with neuroblastoma. However, it has not previously been described in association with the use of Imipramine. We report the occurrence of severe hypertension (blood pressure 190/160) in a 4-year-old girl with neuroblastoma who was given Imipramine to control a behavior disorder. It was determined later that this patient's tumor was recurring at the time of her hypertensive episode. Since she had no blood pressure elevation at initial diagnosis and none following discontinuation of the Imipramine (when she was in florid relapse), we believe that this drug rather than her underlying disease alone caused her hypertension. The mechanism for this reaction is believed to be increased levels of vasoactive catecholamines due to interference of their physiologic inactivation by Imipramine. From this experience, we urge extreme caution in the use of tricyclic antidepressants in children with active neuroblastoma.","[{'text': 'Hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': 'imipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D007099'}, {'text': 'Hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 53, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 112, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': 'Imipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 204, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D007099'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 315, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'D009447'}, {'text': 'Imipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 343, 'end': 353, 'mesh': 'D007099'}, {'text': 'behavior disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 367, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D002653'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 430, 'end': 435, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 469, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Imipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 596, 'end': 606, 'mesh': 'D007099'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 719, 'end': 731, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'catecholamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 814, 'end': 828, 'mesh': 'D002395'}, {'text': 'Imipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 886, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'D007099'}, {'text': 'neuroblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1008, 'end': 1021, 'mesh': 'D009447'}]" +1212,3475563,Rechallenge of patients who developed oral candidiasis or hoarseness with beclomethasone dipropionate.,"Of 158 asthmatic patients who were placed on inhaled beclomethasone, 15 (9.5%) developed either hoarseness (8), oral thrush (6), or both (1).

At these high doses of CYA, serious cardiotoxicity may occur, but definitive risk factors for the development of such cardiotoxicity have not been described. Since chemotherapeutic agent toxicity generally correlates with dose per body surface area, we retrospectively calculated the dose of CYA in patients transplanted at our institution to determine whether the incidence of CYA cardiotoxicity correlated with the dose per body surface area. Eighty patients who were to receive CYA 50 mg/kg/d for four days as preparation for marrow grafting underwent a total of 84 transplants for aplastic anemia, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, or severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome. Fourteen of 84 (17%) patients had symptoms and signs consistent with CYA cardiotoxicity within ten days of receiving 1 to 4 doses of CYA. Six of the 14 patients died with congestive heart failure. The dose of CYA per body surface area was calculated for all patients and the patients were divided into two groups based on daily CYA dose: Group 1, CYA less than or equal to 1.55 g/m2/d; Group 2, CYA greater than 1.55 g/m2/d. Cardiotoxicity that was thought to be related to CYA occurred in 1/32 (3%) of patients in Group 1 and in 13/52 (25%) patients in Group 2 (P less than 0.025). Congestive heart failure caused or contributed to death in 0/32 patients in Group 1 v 6/52 (12%) of patients in Group 2 (P less than 0.25). There was no difference in the rate of engraftment of evaluable patients in the two groups (P greater than 0.5). We conclude that the CYA cardiotoxicity correlates with CYA dosage as calculated by body surface area, and that patients with aplastic anemia and immunodeficiencies can be effectively prepared for bone marrow grafting at a CYA dose of 1.55 g/m2/d for four days with a lower incidence of cardiotoxicity than patients whose CYA dosage is calculated based on weight. This study reaffirms the principle that drug toxicity correlates with dose per body surface area.","[{'text': 'Cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 17, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 168, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 273, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 286, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 368, 'end': 382, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 437, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 542, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 631, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 632, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 734, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'aplastic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 835, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D000741'}, {'text': 'Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 852, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D014923'}, {'text': 'severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 881, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D016511'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 993, 'end': 996, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 997, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1057, 'end': 1060, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'congestive heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1119, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1136, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1271, 'end': 1274, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1322, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'Cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1398, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'Congestive heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1781, 'end': 1784, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1785, 'end': 1799, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1816, 'end': 1819, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'aplastic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1886, 'end': 1901, 'mesh': 'D000741'}, {'text': 'immunodeficiencies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1906, 'end': 1924, 'mesh': 'D007153'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1983, 'end': 1986, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2047, 'end': 2061, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'CYA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2082, 'end': 2085, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2169, 'end': 2177, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +1214,3538855,Studies of risk factors for aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity.,"The epidemiology of aminoglycoside-induced nephrotoxicity is not fully understood. Experimental studies in healthy human volunteers indicate aminoglycosides cause proximal tubular damage in most patients, but rarely, if ever, cause glomerular or tubular dysfunction. Clinical trials of aminoglycosides in seriously ill patients indicate that the relative risk for developing acute renal failure during therapy ranges from 8 to 10 and that the attributable risk is 70% to 80%. Further analysis of these data suggests that the duration of therapy, plasma aminoglycoside levels, liver disease, advanced age, high initial estimated creatinine clearance and, possibly, female gender all increase the risk for nephrotoxicity. Other causes of acute renal failure, such as shock, appear to have an additive effect. Predictive models have been developed from these analyses that should be useful for identifying patients at high risk. These models may also be useful in developing insights into the pathophysiology of aminoglycoside-induced nephrotoxicity.","[{'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 43, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 79, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 102, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aminoglycosides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 200, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'glomerular or tubular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 291, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aminoglycosides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 345, 'end': 360, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 434, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 635, 'end': 648, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 687, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 763, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 795, 'end': 814, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'shock', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 824, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D012769'}, {'text': 'aminoglycoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1082, 'mesh': 'D000617'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1091, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +1215,3685052,Flurothyl seizure thresholds in mice treated neonatally with a single injection of monosodium glutamate (MSG): evaluation of experimental parameters in flurothyl seizure testing.,"Monosodium glutamate (MSG) administration to neonatal rodents produces convulsions and results in numerous biochemical and behavioral deficits. These studies were undertaken to determine if neonatal administration of MSG produced permanent alterations in seizure susceptibility, since previous investigations were inconclusive. A flurothyl ether seizure screening technique was used to evaluate seizure susceptibility in adult mice that received neonatal injections of MSG (4 mg/g and 1 mg/g). MSG treatment resulted in significant reductions in whole brain weight but did not alter seizure threshold. A naloxone (5 mg/kg) challenge was also ineffective in altering the seizure thresholds of either control of MSG-treated mice. Flurothyl ether produced hypothermia which was correlated with the duration of flurothyl exposure; however, the relationship of hypothermia to seizure induction was unclear.

In the present study, the effects of manipulating the activity of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated synaptic inhibition within the substantia nigra on seizures produced by pilocarpine in rats, were investigated. In animals pretreated with microinjections of isoniazid, 150 micrograms, an inhibitor of activity of the GABA-synthesizing enzyme, L-glutamic acid decarboxylase, into the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNR), bilaterally, non-convulsant doses of pilocarpine, 100 and 200 mg/kg, resulted in severe motor limbic seizures and status epilepticus. Electroencephalographic and behavioral monitoring revealed a profound reduction of the threshold for pilocarpine-induced convulsions. Morphological analysis of frontal forebrain sections with light microscopy revealed seizure-related damage to the hippocampal formation, thalamus, amygdala, olfactory cortex, substantia nigra and neocortex, which is typically observed with pilocarpine in doses exceeding 350 mg/kg. Bilateral intrastriatal injections of isoniazid did not augment seizures produced by pilocarpine, 200 mg/kg. Application of an irreversible inhibitor of GABA transaminase, gamma-vinyl-GABA (D,L-4-amino-hex-5-enoic acid), 5 micrograms, into the SNR, bilaterally, suppressed the appearance of electrographic and behavioral seizures produced by pilocarpine, 380 mg/kg. This treatment was also sufficient to protect animals from the occurrence of brain damage. Microinjections of gamma-vinyl-GABA, 5 micrograms, into the dorsal striatum, bilaterally, failed to prevent the development of convulsions produced by pilocarpine, 380 mg/kg. The results demonstrate that the threshold for pilocarpine-induced seizures in rats is subjected to the regulation of the GABA-mediated synaptic inhibition within the substantia nigra.","[{'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 18, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'isoniazid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D007538'}, {'text': 'gamma-vinyl-GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'Pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'temporal lobe epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 231, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D004833'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 329, 'end': 339, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 413, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'gamma-aminobutyric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 539, 'end': 543, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 605, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 626, 'end': 637, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'isoniazid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D007538'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'L-glutamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 797, 'end': 812, 'mesh': 'D018698'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 914, 'end': 925, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 978, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 991, 'end': 1009, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1132, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1229, 'end': 1236, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1385, 'end': 1396, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'isoniazid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1474, 'mesh': 'D007538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1491, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1523, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1580, 'end': 1584, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'gamma-vinyl-GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1599, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'D,L-4-amino-hex-5-enoic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1617, 'end': 1645, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1748, 'end': 1756, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1769, 'end': 1780, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'brain damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1870, 'end': 1882, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'gamma-vinyl-GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1903, 'end': 1919, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2011, 'end': 2022, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2035, 'end': 2046, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2106, 'end': 2117, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2126, 'end': 2134, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2181, 'end': 2185, 'mesh': 'D005680'}]" +1217,3746148,Non-invasive detection of coronary artery disease by body surface electrocardiographic mapping after dipyridamole infusion.,"Electrocardiographic changes after dipyridamole infusion (0.568 mg/kg/4 min) were studied in 41 patients with coronary artery disease and compared with those after submaximal treadmill exercise by use of the body surface mapping technique. Patients were divided into three groups; 19 patients without myocardial infarction (non-MI group), 14 with anterior infarction (ANT-MI) and eight with inferior infarction (INF-MI). Eighty-seven unipolar electrocardiograms (ECGs) distributed over the entire thoracic surface were simultaneously recorded. After dipyridamole, ischemic ST-segment depression (0.05 mV or more) was observed in 84% of the non-MI group, 29% of the ANT-MI group, 63% of the INF-MI group and 61% of the total population. Exercise-induced ST depression was observed in 84% of the non-MI group, 43% of the ANT-MI group, 38% of the INF-MI group and 61% of the total. For individual patients, there were no obvious differences between the body surface distribution of ST depression in both tests. The increase in pressure rate product after dipyridamole was significantly less than that during the treadmill exercise.

The homozygous Gunn rats have unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia due to the absence of glucuronyl transferase, leading to marked bilirubin deposition in renal medulla and papilla. These rats are also highly susceptible to develop papillary necrosis with analgesic administration. We used homozygous (jj) and phenotypically normal heterozygous (jJ) animals. Four groups of rats (n = 7) were studied: jj and jJ rats treated either with aspirin 300 mg/kg every other day or sham-treated. After one week, slices of cortex, outer and inner medulla from one kidney were incubated in buffer and prostaglandin synthesis was determined by radioimmunoassay. The other kidney was examined histologically. A marked corticomedullary gradient of prostaglandin synthesis was observed in all groups. PGE2 synthesis was significantly higher in outer medulla, but not cortex or inner medulla, of jj (38 +/- 6 ng/mg prot) than jJ rats (15 +/- 3) (p less than 0.01). Aspirin treatment reduced PGE2 synthesis in all regions, but outer medullary PGE2 remained higher in jj (18 +/- 3) than jJ rats (9 +/- 2) (p less than 0.05). PGF2 alpha was also significantly higher in the outer medulla of jj rats with and without aspirin administration (p less than 0.05). The changes in renal prostaglandin synthesis were accompanied by evidence of renal damage in aspirin-treated jj but not jJ rats as evidenced by: increased incidence and severity of hematuria (p less than 0.01); increased serum creatinine (p less than 0.05); and increase in outer medullary histopathologic lesions (p less than 0.005 compared to either sham-treated jj or aspirin-treated jJ). These results suggest that enhanced prostaglandin synthesis contributes to maintenance of renal function and morphological integrity, and that inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis may lead to pathological renal medullary lesions and deterioration of renal function.","[{'text': 'Salicylate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D012459'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 11, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'prostaglandins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'prostaglandins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 108, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 155, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hyperbilirubinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 237, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D006932'}, {'text': 'glucuronyl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 278, 'end': 288, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'bilirubin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 320, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D001663'}, {'text': 'papillary necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 421, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D007681'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 625, 'end': 632, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 779, 'end': 792, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 975, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'Aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PGF2 alpha', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1296, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D015237'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1386, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1463, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1518, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1529, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'hematuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1610, 'end': 1619, 'mesh': 'D006417'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1656, 'end': 1666, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1800, 'end': 1807, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1857, 'end': 1870, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1978, 'end': 1991, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'pathological renal medullary lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2014, 'end': 2050, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'deterioration of renal function', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2055, 'end': 2086, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +1224,3895875,Prophylactic lidocaine in the early phase of suspected myocardial infarction.,"Four hundred two patients with suspected myocardial infarction seen within 6 hours of the onset of symptoms entered a double-blind randomized trial of lidocaine vs placebo.

Large doses of the cholinomimetic, pilocarpine, could induce catalepsy when peripheral cholinergic receptors were blocked. Low doses of pilocarpine caused a pronounced enhancement of the catalepsy that was induced by the dopaminergic blocker, haloperidol. A muscarinic receptor blocker, atropine, disrupted haloperidol-induced catalepsy. Intracranial injection of an acetylcholine-synthesis inhibitor, hemicholinium, prevented the catalepsy that is usually induced by haloperidol. These findings suggest the hypothesis that the catalepsy that is produced by neuroleptics such as haloperidol is actually mediated by intrinsic central cholinergic systems. Alternatively, activation of central cholinergic systems could promote catalepsy by suppression of dopaminergic systems.","[{'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 35, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 55, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 159, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'neuroleptic', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 242, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D014150'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 262, 'end': 271, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 308, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 334, 'end': 343, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 409, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 460, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 600, 'end': 609, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'acetylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 640, 'end': 653, 'mesh': 'D000109'}, {'text': 'hemicholinium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 675, 'end': 688, 'mesh': 'D006426'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 704, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 741, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 801, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'neuroleptics', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 831, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D014150'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 852, 'end': 863, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 998, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D002375'}]" +1226,3975902,Cardiovascular dysfunction and hypersensitivity to sodium pentobarbital induced by chronic barium chloride ingestion.,"Barium-supplemented Long-Evans hooded rats were characterized by a persistent hypertension that was evident after 1 month of barium (100 micrograms/ml mineral fortified water) treatment. Analysis of in vivo myocardial excitability, contractility, and metabolic characteristics at 16 months revealed other significant barium-induced disturbances within the cardiovascular system. The most distinctive aspect of the barium effect was a demonstrated hypersensitivity of the cardiovascular system to sodium pentobarbital. Under barbiturate anesthesia, virtually all of the myocardial contractile indices were depressed significantly in barium-exposed rats relative to the corresponding control-fed rats. The lack of a similar response to ketamine and xylazine anesthesia revealed that the cardiovascular actions of sodium pentobarbital in barium-treated rats were linked specifically to this anesthetic, and were not representative of a generalized anesthetic response. Other myocardial pathophysiologic and metabolic changes induced by barium were manifest, irrespective of the anesthetic employed. The contractile element shortening velocity of the cardiac muscle fibers was significantly slower in both groups of barium-treated rats relative to the control groups, irrespective of the anesthetic regimen. Similarly, significant disturbances in myocardial energy metabolism were detected in the barium-exposed rats which were consistent with the reduced contractile element shortening velocity. In addition, the excitability of the cardiac conduction system was depressed preferentially in the atrioventricular nodal region of hearts from barium-exposed rats. Overall, the altered cardiac contractility and excitability characteristics, the myocardial metabolic disturbances, and the hypersensitivity of the cardiovascular system to sodium pentobarbital suggest the existence of a heretofore undescribed cardiomyopathic disorder induced by chronic barium exposure. These experimental findings represent the first indication that life-long barium ingestion may have significant adverse effects on the mammalian cardiovascular system.","[{'text': 'Cardiovascular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 31, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'sodium pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 51, 'end': 71, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'barium chloride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'C024986'}, {'text': 'Barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 118, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 196, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 243, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 435, 'end': 441, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'disturbances within the cardiovascular system', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 450, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 532, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 565, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'sodium pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 634, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'barbiturate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 642, 'end': 653, 'mesh': 'C032232'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 750, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'ketamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 852, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D007649'}, {'text': 'xylazine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 873, 'mesh': 'D014991'}, {'text': 'sodium pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 929, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 959, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1157, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1330, 'end': 1336, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1517, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1755, 'end': 1761, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'metabolic disturbances', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1868, 'end': 1890, 'mesh': 'D008659'}, {'text': 'hypersensitivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1900, 'end': 1916, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'sodium pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1949, 'end': 1969, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathic disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2020, 'end': 2044, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2064, 'end': 2070, 'mesh': 'D001464'}, {'text': 'barium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2155, 'end': 2161, 'mesh': 'D001464'}]" +1227,3987172,Propranolol antagonism of phenylpropanolamine-induced hypertension.,"Phenylpropanolamine (PPA) overdose can cause severe hypertension, intracerebral hemorrhage, and death. We studied the efficacy and safety of propranolol in the treatment of PPA-induced hypertension. Subjects received propranolol either by mouth for 48 hours before PPA or as a rapid intravenous infusion after PPA. PPA, 75 mg alone, increased blood pressure (31 +/- 14 mm Hg systolic, 20 +/- 5 mm Hg diastolic), and propranolol pretreatment antagonized this increase (12 +/- 10 mm Hg systolic, 10 +/- 7 mm Hg diastolic). Intravenous propranolol after PPA also decreased blood pressure. Left ventricular function (assessed by echocardiography) showed that PPA increased the stroke volume 30% (from 62.5 +/- 20.9 to 80.8 +/- 22.4 ml), the ejection fraction 9% (from 64% +/- 10% to 70% +/- 7%), and cardiac output 14% (from 3.6 +/- 0.6 to 4.1 +/- 1.0 L/min). Intravenous propranolol reversed these effects. Systemic vascular resistance was increased by PPA 28% (from 1710 +/- 200 to 2190 +/- 700 dyne X sec/cm5) and was further increased by propranolol 22% (to 2660 +/- 1200 dyne X sec/cm5). We conclude that PPA increases blood pressure by increasing systemic vascular resistance and cardiac output, and that propranolol antagonizes this increase by reversing the effect of PPA on cardiac output. That propranolol antagonizes the pressor effect of PPA is in contrast to the interaction in which propranolol enhances the pressor effect of norepinephrine. This is probably because PPA has less beta 2 activity than does norepinephrine.","[{'text': 'Propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'phenylpropanolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 54, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'Phenylpropanolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 89, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 94, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 120, 'end': 132, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'intracerebral hemorrhage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 134, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D002543'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 209, 'end': 220, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 241, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 253, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 285, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 383, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 484, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 601, 'end': 612, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 619, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 723, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 741, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 936, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1021, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1174, 'end': 1177, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1275, 'end': 1286, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1343, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1379, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1414, 'end': 1417, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1504, 'end': 1518, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'PPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1545, 'end': 1548, 'mesh': 'D010665'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1584, 'end': 1598, 'mesh': 'D009638'}]" +1228,3990093,Mesangial function and glomerular sclerosis in rats with aminonucleoside nephrosis.,"The possible relationship between mesangial dysfunction and development of glomerular sclerosis was studied in the puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) model. Five male Wistar rats received repeated subcutaneous PAN injections; five controls received saline only. After 4 weeks the PAN rats were severely proteinuric (190 +/- 80 mg/24 hr), and all rats were given colloidal carbon (CC) intravenously. At 5 months glomerular sclerosis was found in 7.6 +/- 3.4% of the glomeruli of PAN rats; glomeruli of the controls were normal. Glomeruli of PAN rats contained significantly more CC than glomeruli of controls. Glomeruli with sclerosis contained significantly more CC than non-sclerotic glomeruli in the same kidneys. CC was preferentially localized within the sclerotic areas of the affected glomeruli. Since mesangial CC clearance from the mesangium did not change during chronic PAN treatment, we conclude that this preferential CC localization within the lesions is caused by an increased CC uptake shortly after injection in apparent vulnerable areas where sclerosis will develop subsequently. Cluster analysis showed a random distribution of lesions in the PAN glomeruli in concordance with the random localization of mesangial areas with dysfunction in this model. Similar to the remnant kidney model in PAN nephrosis the development of glomerular sclerosis may be related to ""mesangial overloading.""","[{'text': 'glomerular sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 23, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 57, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'mesangial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 139, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerular sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 159, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 199, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 291, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 361, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'proteinuric', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 384, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'carbon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 453, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D002244'}, {'text': 'glomerular sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 492, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 562, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 705, 'end': 714, 'mesh': 'D012598'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 961, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1141, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D012598'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1242, 'end': 1245, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1394, 'end': 1403, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'glomerular sclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +1229,4010471,Relationship between nicotine-induced seizures and hippocampal nicotinic receptors.,"A controversy has existed for several years concerning the physiological relevance of the nicotinic receptor measured by alpha-bungarotoxin binding. Using mice derived from a classical F2 and backcross genetic design, a relationship between nicotine-induced seizures and alpha-bungarotoxin nicotinic receptor concentration was found. Mice sensitive to the convulsant effects of nicotine had greater alpha-bungarotoxin binding in the hippocampus than seizure insensitive mice. The binding sites from seizure sensitive and resistant mice were equally affected by treatment with dithiothreitol, trypsin or heat. Thus it appears that the difference between seizure sensitive and insensitive animals may be due to a difference in hippocampal nicotinic receptor concentration as measured with alpha-bungarotoxin binding.","[{'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 38, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 325, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 342, 'end': 350, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'nicotine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 462, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D009538'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 534, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 583, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'dithiothreitol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 674, 'mesh': 'D004229'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 737, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +1230,4082192,The role of p-aminophenol in acetaminophen-induced nephrotoxicity: effect of bis(p-nitrophenyl) phosphate on acetaminophen and p-aminophenol nephrotoxicity and metabolism in Fischer 344 rats.,"Acetaminophen (APAP) produces proximal tubular necrosis in Fischer 344 (F344) rats. Recently, p-aminophenol (PAP), a known potent nephrotoxicant, was identified as a metabolite of APAP in F344 rats. The purpose of this study was to determine if PAP formation is a requisite step in APAP-induced nephrotoxicity. Therefore, the effect of bis(p-nitrophenyl) phosphate (BNPP), an acylamidase inhibitor, on APAP and PAP nephrotoxicity and metabolism was determined. BNPP (1 to 8 mM) reduced APAP deacetylation and covalent binding in F344 renal cortical homogenates in a concentration-dependent manner. Pretreatment of animals with BNPP prior to APAP or PAP administration resulted in marked reduction of APAP (900 mg/kg) nephrotoxicity but not PAP nephrotoxicity. This result was not due to altered disposition of either APAP or acetylated metabolites in plasma or renal cortical and hepatic tissue. Rather, BNPP pretreatment reduced the fraction of APAP excreted as PAP by 64 and 75% after APAP doses of 750 and 900 mg/kg. BNPP did not alter the excretion of APAP or any of its non-deacetylated metabolites nor did BNPP alter excretion of PAP or its metabolites after PAP doses of 150 and 300 mg/kg. Therefore, the BNPP-induced reduction in APAP-induced nephrotoxicity appears to be due to inhibition of APAP deacetylation. It is concluded that PAP formation, in vivo, accounts, at least in part, for APAP-induced renal tubular necrosis.","[{'text': 'p-aminophenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'bis(p-nitrophenyl) phosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 77, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 109, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'p-aminophenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 127, 'end': 140, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 141, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 207, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'tubular necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 231, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D007683'}, {'text': 'p-aminophenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 286, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 301, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 372, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 437, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 487, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'bis(p-nitrophenyl) phosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 528, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'BNPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 558, 'end': 562, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 594, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 603, 'end': 606, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 607, 'end': 621, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'BNPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 653, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 678, 'end': 682, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'BNPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 819, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 837, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 841, 'end': 844, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 892, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 909, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 932, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 936, 'end': 950, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1013, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'BNPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1100, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1179, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'BNPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1212, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1248, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'BNPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1328, 'end': 1331, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1357, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'BNPP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1404, 'end': 1408, 'mesh': 'C002887'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1434, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1443, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1493, 'end': 1497, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'PAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1534, 'end': 1537, 'mesh': 'C026729'}, {'text': 'APAP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1590, 'end': 1594, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'renal tubular necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1603, 'end': 1625, 'mesh': 'D007683'}]" +1231,4082466,Morphine-induced seizures in newborn infants.,Two neonates suffered from generalized seizures during the course of intravenous morphine sulfate for post-operative analgesia.

These studies suggest that an antimetabolite-induced leukopenia predisposes to severe Pseudomonas sepsis and that such monkeys may serve as a biological model for study of comparative efficacy of antimicrobial agents.","[{'text': 'vincristine sulfate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'Pseudomonas infections', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 33, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D011552'}, {'text': 'Leukocytosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 329, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D007964'}, {'text': 'vincristine sulfate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 432, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'leukopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 468, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'vincristine sulfate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 623, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 660, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'leukopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 799, 'end': 809, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'sepsis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 844, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D018805'}]" +1233,6106951,Central excitatory actions of flurazepam.,"Toxic actions of flurazepam (FZP) were studied in cats, mice and rats. High doses caused an apparent central excitation, most clearly seen as clonic convulsions, superimposed on general depression. Following a lethal dose, death was always associated with convulsions. Comparing the relative sensitivity to central depression and excitation revealed that rats were least likely to have convulsions at doses that did not first cause loss of consciousness, while cats most clearly showed marked central excitatory actions. Signs of FZP toxocity in cats included excessive salivation, extreme apprehensive behavior, retching, muscle tremors and convulsions. An interaction between FZP and pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) was shown by pretreating mice with FZP before PTZ challenge. As a function of dose, FZP first protected against convulsions and death. At higher doses, however, convulsions again emerged. These doses of FZP were lower than those that would alone cause convulsions. These results may be relevant to the use of FZP in clinical situations in which there is increased neural excitability, such as epilepsy or sedative-hypnotic drug withdrawal.","[{'text': 'flurazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'flurazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'FZP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 71, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 191, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 228, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 298, 'end': 309, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 357, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 428, 'end': 439, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'loss of consciousness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 474, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'D014474'}, {'text': 'FZP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 572, 'end': 575, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'toxocity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 576, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'salivation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 612, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D012798'}, {'text': 'muscle tremors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 665, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 684, 'end': 695, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'FZP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 720, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'pentylenetetrazol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 728, 'end': 745, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 747, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'FZP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 787, 'end': 790, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'PTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 798, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D010433'}, {'text': 'FZP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 836, 'end': 839, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 864, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'FZP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 955, 'end': 958, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1015, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'FZP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1064, 'mesh': 'D005479'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1145, 'end': 1153, 'mesh': 'D004827'}]" +1234,6299641,Evidence for cardiac beta 2-adrenoceptors in man.,"We compared the effects of single doses of 50 mg atenolol (cardioselective), 40 mg propranolol (nonselective), and placebo on both exercise- and isoproterenol-induced tachycardia in two experiments involving nine normal subjects. Maximal exercise heart rate was reduced from 187 +/- 4(SEM) after placebo to 146 +/- 7 bpm after atenolol and 138 +/- 6 bpm after propranolol, but there were no differences between the drugs. The effects on isoproterenol tachycardia were determined before and after atropine (0.04 mg/kg IV). Isoproterenol sensitivity was determined as the intravenous dose that increased heart rate by 25 bpm (CD25) and this was increased from 1.8 +/- 0.3 micrograms after placebo to 38.9 +/- 8.3 micrograms after propranolol and 8.3 +/- 1.7 micrograms after atenolol. The difference in the effects of the two was significant. After atropine the CD25 was unchanged after placebo (2.3 +/- 0.3 micrograms) and atenolol (7.7 +/- 1.3 micrograms); it was reduced after propranolol (24.8 +/- 5.0 micrograms), but remained different from atenolol. This change with propranolol sensitivity was calculated as the apparent Ka, this was unchanged by atropine (11.7 +/- 2.1 and 10.1 +/- 2.5 ml/ng). These data are consistent with the hypothesis that exercise-induced tachycardia results largely from beta 1-receptor activation that is blocked by both cardioselective and nonselective drugs, whereas isoproterenol activates both beta 1- and beta 2-receptors so that after cardioselective blockade there remains a beta 2-component that can be blocked with a nonselective drug. While there appear to be beta 2-receptors in the human heart, their physiologic or pathologic roles remain to be defined.","[{'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 99, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D001262'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 195, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 377, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D001262'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 410, 'end': 421, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 487, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 501, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 546, 'end': 554, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'Isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 572, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 778, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D001262'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 980, 'mesh': 'D001262'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1028, 'end': 1039, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'atenolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1103, 'mesh': 'D001262'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1203, 'end': 1211, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1330, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'D007545'}]" +1235,6305660,Hormones and risk of breast cancer.,"This paper reports the results of a study of 50 menopausal women receiving hormonal replacement therapy. The majority (29) had surgical menopause; their mean age was 45.7 years. It was hypothesized that progestins could equilibrate the effects of the estrogenic stimulation on the mammary and endometrial target tissues of women on hormonal replacement therapy. The treatment schedule consisted of conjugated estrogens (Premarin) 1.25 mg/day for 21 days and Medroxyprogesterone acetate 10 mg/day for 10 days in each month. The mean treatment period was 18 months. During the follow-up period, attention was paid to breast modifications as evidenced by symptomatology, physical examination, and plate thermography. Mastodynia was reported by 21 patients, and physical examination revealed a light increase in breast firmness in 12 women and a moderate increase in breast nodularity in 2 women. Themography confirmed the existence of an excessive breast stimulation in 1 women who complained of moderate mastodynia and in 5 of the 7 women who complained of severe mastodynia. Normalization was obtained by halving the estrogen dose. These results suggest that hormonal replacement therapy can be safely prescribed if the following criteria are satisfied: 1) preliminary evaluation of patients from a clinical, metabolic, cytologic, and mammographic perspective; 2) cyclic treatment schedule, with a progestative phase of 10 days; and 3) periodic complete follow-up, with accurate thermographic evaluation of the breast target tissues.","[{'text': 'breast cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 21, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'progestins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 239, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D011372'}, {'text': 'conjugated estrogens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 434, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'D004966'}, {'text': 'Premarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 456, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'D004966'}, {'text': 'Medroxyprogesterone acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 521, 'mesh': 'D017258'}, {'text': 'Mastodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 750, 'end': 760, 'mesh': 'D059373'}, {'text': 'mastodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1048, 'mesh': 'D059373'}, {'text': 'mastodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1098, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D059373'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1152, 'end': 1160, 'mesh': 'D004967'}]" +1236,6310832,"Early infections in kidney, heart, and liver transplant recipients on cyclosporine.","Eighty-one renal, seventeen heart, and twenty-four liver transplant patients were followed for infection.

There were no infectious deaths in renal transplant patients on cyclosporine or Aza, but infection played a major role in 3 out of 6 cardiac transplant deaths and in 8 out of 9 liver transplant deaths. Renal patients on cyclosporine had the fewest bacteremias. Analysis of site of infection showed a preponderance of abdominal infections in liver patients, intrathoracic infections in heart patients, and urinary tract infections in renal patients. Pulmonary infections were less common in cyclosporine-treated renal patients than in Aza-treated patients (P less than 0.05). Aza patients had significantly more staphylococcal infections than all other transplant groups (P less than 0.005), and systemic fungal infections occurred only in the liver transplant group.

Vasopressin plays a major role in the pathogenesis of DOCA-salt hypertension, since the elevation of blood pressure was not substantial in the rats with lithium-treated diabetes insipidus after DOCA-salt treatment. Administration of DDAVP which has antidiuretic action but minimal vasopressor effect failed to increase blood pressure to the levels observed after administration of AVP. Furthermore, the pressor action of vasopressin appears to be important in the development of this model of hypertension, since the enhanced pressor responsiveness to the hormone was observed in the initial stage of hypertension. Increased secretion of vasopressin from neurohypophysis also promotes the function of the hormone as a pathogenetic factor in hypertension. An unproportional release of vasopressin compared to plasma osmolality may be induced by the absence of an adjusting control of angiotensin II forming and receptor binding capacity for sodium balance in the brain.

The electrocardiogram showed alternation of long and short P-P intervals and occasional pauses. These pauses were always preceded by the short P-P intervals and were usually followed by one or two P-P intervals of 0.92-0.95 s representing the basic sinus cycle. Following these basic sinus cycles, alternating rhythm started with the longer P-P interval. The long P-P intervals ranged between 1.04-1.12 s and the short P-P intervals between 0.80-0.84 s, respectively. The duration of the pauses were equal or almost equal to one short plus one long P-P interval or to twice the basic sinus cycle. In one recording a short period of regular sinus rhythm with intermittent 2/1 S-A block was observed. This short period of sinus rhythm was interrupted by sudden prolongation of the P-P interval starting the alternative rhythm. There were small changes in the shape of the P waves and P-R intervals. S-A conduction through two pathways, the first with 2/1 block the second having 0.12-0.14 s longer conduction time and with occasional 2/1 block was proposed for the explanation of the alternating P-P interval and other electrocardiographic features seen. Atropine 1 mg given intravenously resulted in shortening of all P-P intervals without changing the rhythm. The abnormal rhythm disappeared with the withdrawal of propranolol and when the drug was restarted a 2/1 S-A block was seen. This was accepted as evidence for propranolol being the cause of this conduction disorder.","[{'text': 'Alternating sinus rhythm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D001146'}, {'text': 'sinoatrial block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D012848'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'Alternating sinus rhythm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 83, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D001146'}, {'text': 'sinoatrial (S-A) block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 125, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D012848'}, {'text': 'angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D000787'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'alternating rhythm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 540, 'end': 558, 'mesh': 'D001146'}, {'text': 'S-A block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 917, 'end': 926, 'mesh': 'D012848'}, {'text': 'Atropine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1403, 'mesh': 'D001285'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1557, 'end': 1568, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'S-A block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1616, 'mesh': 'D012848'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1661, 'end': 1672, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'conduction disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1697, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D019955'}]" +1242,6585590,"Antitumor effect, cardiotoxicity, and nephrotoxicity of doxorubicin in the IgM solid immunocytoma-bearing LOU/M/WSL rat.","Antitumor activity, cardiotoxicity, and nephrotoxicity induced by doxorubicin were studied in LOU/M/WSL inbred rats each bearing a transplantable solid IgM immunocytoma.

Tumor regression was observed with 0.5 mg doxorubicin/kg. Complete disappearance of the tumor was induced with 1.0 mg doxorubicin/kg. Histologic evidence of cardiotoxicity scored as grade III was only observed at a dose of 1.0 mg doxorubicin/kg. Light microscopic evidence of renal damage was seen above a dose of 0.5 mg doxorubicin/kg, which resulted in albuminuria and very low serum albumin levels. In the group that received 1.0 mg doxorubicin/kg, the serum albumin level decreased from 33.6 +/- 4.1 to 1.5 +/- 0.5 g/liter. Ascites and hydrothorax were observed simultaneously. The same experiments were performed with non-tumor-bearing rats, in which no major differences were observed. In conclusion, antitumor activity, cardiotoxicity, and nephrotoxicity were studied simultaneously in the same LOU/M/WSL rat.

The present results suggest a selective involvement of central noradrenergic neurones in the locomotor stimulant effect of amphetamine in the rat.","[{'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 95, 'end': 106, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'noradrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 142, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'DSP4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 167, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'C012102'}, {'text': 'D-amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 212, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 256, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'D-amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 281, 'end': 294, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'DSP4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 338, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'C012102'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 397, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'stereotypies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 417, 'end': 429, 'mesh': 'D019956'}, {'text': 'DSP4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 468, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'C012102'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 491, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D000661'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 503, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'DSP4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 528, 'end': 532, 'mesh': 'C012102'}, {'text': 'noradrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 570, 'end': 583, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'desipramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 607, 'end': 618, 'mesh': 'D003891'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 639, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'DSP4', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'C012102'}, {'text': 'amphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 789, 'end': 800, 'mesh': 'D000661'}]" +1248,6695685,Accelerated junctional rhythms during oral verapamil therapy.,"This study examined the frequency of atrioventricular (AV) dissociation and accelerated junctional rhythms in 59 patients receiving oral verapamil.

In vitro perfusion of bepridil in the life-support medium for isolated sino-atrial tissue from rabbit heart, caused a reduction in action potential (AP) spike frequency (recorded by KCl microelectrodes) starting at doses of 5 X 10(-6) M. This effect was dose-dependent up to concentrations of 5 X 10(-5) M, whereupon blockade of sinus activity set in. Bepridil at a dose of 5 X 10(-6) M, induced a concomitant reduction in AP amplitude (falling from 71 +/- 8 mV to 47 +/- 6 mV), maximum systolic depolarization velocity (phase 0) which fell from 1.85 +/- 0.35 V/s to 0.84 +/- 0.28 V/s, together with maximum diastolic depolarization velocity (phase 4) which fell from 38 +/- 3 mV/s to 24 +/- 5 mV/s. In vivo injection of bepridil at a dose of 5 mg/kg (i.v.) into 6 anaesthetized dogs which had undergone ablation of all the extrinsic cardiac afferent nerve supply, together with a bilateral medullo-adrenalectomy, caused a marked reduction in heart rate which fell from 98.7 +/- 4.2 beats/min to 76 +/- 5.3 beats/min sustained for more than 45 min. It is concluded that bepridil reduces heart rate by acting directly on the sinus node. This effect, which results in a flattening of the phase 0 and phase 4 slope, together with a longer AP duration, may be due to an increase in the time constants of slow inward ionic currents (already demonstrated elsewhere), but also to an increased time constant for deactivation of the outward potassium current (Ip).","[{'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D015764'}, {'text': 'Bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D015764'}, {'text': 'anginal attacks', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 112, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D000787'}, {'text': 'bradycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 148, 'end': 159, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'tachycardial', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 184, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 291, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D015764'}, {'text': 'KCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 451, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'D011189'}, {'text': 'Bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D015764'}, {'text': 'bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 990, 'end': 998, 'mesh': 'D015764'}, {'text': 'bepridil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1347, 'mesh': 'D015764'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1701, 'end': 1710, 'mesh': 'D011188'}]" +1253,6985498,Hepatitis and renal tubular acidosis after anesthesia with methoxyflurane.,A 69-year-old man operated for acute cholecystitis under methoxyflurane anesthesia developed postoperatively a hepatic insufficiency syndrome and renal tubular acidosis.

We investigated how these two drugs act on the cardiovascular systems of 20 dogs whose hearts had been denervated by a procedure we had devised. ATP (10 dogs) or SNP (10 dogs) was administered to reduce mean arterial pressure by 30% to 70% of control. Before, during and after induced hypotension, we measured major cardiovascular parameters. Hypotension induced by ATP was accompanied by significant decreases in mean pulmonary arterial pressure (p less than 0.001), central venous pressure (p less than 0.001), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (p less than 0.001), total peripheral resistance (p less than 0.001), rate pressure product (p less than 0.001), total body oxygen consumption (p less than 0.05), and heart rate (p less than 0.001); all these variables returned normal within 30 min after ATP was stopped. Cardiac output did not change. During hypotension produced by SNP similar decreases were observed in mean pulmonary arterial pressure (p less than 0.01), central venous pressure (p less than 0.001), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (p less than 0.01), total peripheral resistance (p less than 0.001), rate pressure product (p less than 0.001), and oxygen content difference between arterial and mixed venous blood (p less than 0.05), while heart rate (p less than 0.001) and cardiac output (p less than 0.05) were increased.

The hypothesis that intense vasoconstriction would increase the number of such vacuoles has been tested. In the media of the saphenous artery and its distal branch, vasoconstriction induced by L-norepinephrine produced many cell-to-cell hernias within 15 minutes. At 1 day their number was reduced to about 1/10 of the original number. By 7 days the vessel was almost restored to normal. Triple stimulation over 1 day induced more severe changes in the media. These findings suggest that smooth muscle cells are susceptible to damage in the course of their specific function.

The aim of this study was to determine if the prophylactic value of misoprostol was dose-dependent. Parameters of renal hemodynamics and tubular sodium and water handling were assessed by clearance techniques in 26 well compensated cirrhotic patients before and after an oral combination of 50 mg of indomethacin and various doses of misoprostol. The 200-micrograms dose was able to totally abolish the deleterious renal effects of indomethacin, whereas the 800-micrograms dose resulted in significant worsening of renal hemodynamics and sodium retention. These changes were maximal in the hour immediately after medications and slowly returned toward base-line levels thereafter. These results suggest that the renal protective effects of misoprostol is dose-dependent. However, until this apparent ability of 200 micrograms of misoprostol to prevent the adverse effects of indomethacin on renal function is confirmed with chronic frequent dosing, it would be prudent to avoid nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory therapy in patients with cirrhosis.","[{'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 29, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 65, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 103, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'Misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 114, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 184, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 222, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'cirrhotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 243, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'cirrhotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 495, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 563, 'end': 575, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 597, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 695, 'end': 707, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 801, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1003, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'misoprostol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1103, 'mesh': 'D016595'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1150, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D005355'}]" +1269,7671401,Increased frequency and severity of angio-oedema related to long-term therapy with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor in two patients.,"Adverse reactions to drugs are well recognized as a cause of acute or chronic urticaria, and angio-oedema.

Three patients had acute viral myocarditis, one had a carbamazepine-induced acute eosinophilic myocarditis, and one had cardiac hemosiderosis resulting in acute cardiogenic shock. All patients were continuously monitored with central venous and arterial catheters in addition to routine noninvasive monitoring. An introducer sheath, a pacemaker, and sterile pacing wires were made readily available for the patients, should the need arise to terminate resistant cardiac dysrhythmias. All patients developed cardiocirculatory arrest associated with extreme hypotension and dysrhythmias within the first 48 hours of their admission to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Right ventricular pacemaker wires were inserted in all of them during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). In four patients, cardiac pacing was used, resulting in a temporary captured rhythm and restoration of their cardiac output. These patients had a second event of cardiac arrest, resulting in death, within 10 to 60 minutes. In one patient, cardiac pacing was not used, because he converted to normal sinus rhythm by electrical defibrillation within three minutes of initiating CPR. We conclude that cardiac pacing during resuscitative efforts in pediatric patients suffering from acute myocardial dysfunction may not have long-term value in and of itself; however, if temporary hemodynamic stability is achieved by this procedure, it may provide additional time needed to institute other therapeutic modalities.","[{'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 107, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'circulatory failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D012769'}, {'text': 'myocardial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 242, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'myocarditis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 297, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D009205'}, {'text': 'carbamazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 320, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D002220'}, {'text': 'cardiogenic shock', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 427, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D012770'}, {'text': 'dysrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 736, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 822, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'dysrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 838, 'end': 850, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'cardiac arrest', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1224, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'myocardial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1555, 'mesh': 'D009202'}]" +1272,7931490,"Efficacy and safety of granisetron, a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 receptor antagonist, in the prevention of nausea and vomiting induced by high-dose cisplatin.","PURPOSE: To assess the antiemetic effects and safety profile of four different doses of granisetron (Kytril; SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceuticals, Philadelphia, PA) when administered as a single intravenous (IV) dose for prophylaxis of cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting. PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred eighty-four chemotherapy-naive patients receiving high-dose cisplatin (81 to 120 mg/m2) were randomized to receive one of four granisetron doses (5, 10, 20, or 40 micrograms/kg) administered before chemotherapy. Patients were observed on an inpatient basis for 18 to 24 hours, and vital signs, nausea, vomiting, retching, and appetite were assessed. Safety analyses included incidence of adverse experiences and laboratory parameter changes. RESULTS: After granisetron doses of 5, 10, 20, and 40 micrograms/kg, a major response (< or = two vomiting or retching episodes, and no antiemetic rescue) was recorded in 23%, 57%, 58%, and 60% of patients, respectively, and a complete response (no vomiting or retching, and no antiemetic rescue) in 18%, 41%, 40%, and 47% of patients, respectively. There was a statistically longer time to first episode of nausea (P = .0015) and vomiting (P = .0001), and fewer patients were administered additional antiemetic medication in the 10-micrograms/kg dosing groups than in the 5-micrograms/kg dosing group. As granisetron dose increased, appetite return increased (P = .040). Headache was the most frequently reported adverse event (20%). CONCLUSION: A single 10-, 20-, or 40-micrograms/kg dose of granisetron was effective in controlling vomiting in 57% to 60% of patients who received cisplatin at doses greater than 81 mg/m2 and totally prevented vomiting in 40% to 47% of patients.

CASE SUMMARIES: A 54-year-old woman with hyperaldosteronism was treated with verapamil 480 mg/d and spironolactone 100 mg/d. After the addition of a minimal dose of clonidine (0.15 mg bid), she developed complete AV block and severe hypotension, which resolved upon cessation of all medications. A 65-year-old woman was treated with extended-release verapamil 240 mg/d. After the addition of clonidine 0.15 mg bid she developed complete AV block, which resolved after all therapy was stopped. DISCUSSION: An adverse interaction between clonidine and verapamil has not been reported previously. We describe two such cases and discuss the various mechanisms that might cause such an interaction. Clinicians should be acquainted with this possibly fatal interaction between two commonly used antihypertensive drugs.

DESIGN: Male Sprague-Dawley rats received 100 mg/kg cocaine IP alone, 5 mg/kg diazepam alone, or a combination of diazepam and cocaine. Three minutes later, groups were challenged with vehicle or flumazenil 5 or 10 mg/kg IP. Animal behavior, seizures (time to and incidence), death (time to and incidence), and cortical EEG tracings were recorded. INTERVENTIONS: Administration of flumazenil to animals after they had received a combination dose of cocaine and diazepam. RESULTS: In group 1, animals received cocaine followed by vehicle. This resulted in 100% developing seizures and death. Group 2 received diazepam alone followed by vehicle. Animals became somnolent and none died. Group 3 received diazepam followed by 5 mg/kg flumazenil. Animals became somnolent after diazepam and then active after flumazenil administration. In group 4, a combination of cocaine and diazepam was administered simultaneously. This resulted in no overt or EEG-detectable seizures and a 50% incidence of death. Group 5 received a similar combination of cocaine and diazepam, followed later by 5 mg/kg flumazenil. This resulted in an increased incidence of seizures, 90% (P < .01), and death, 100% (P < or = .01), compared with group 4. Group 6 received cocaine and diazepam followed by 10 mg/kg flumazenil. This also resulted in an increased incidence of seizures, 90% (P < or = .01), and death, 90% (P < or = .05), compared with group 4. CONCLUSION: Flumazenil can unmask seizures and increase the incidence of death in a model of combined cocaine-diazepam intoxications.","[{'text': 'Flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 47, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 63, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 167, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 185, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'benzodiazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 193, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D001569'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 300, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 336, 'end': 344, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 349, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 418, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 464, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 603, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 671, 'end': 678, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 683, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 793, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 923, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 952, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 995, 'end': 1003, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1036, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1082, 'end': 1089, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1094, 'end': 1102, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1188, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1273, 'end': 1281, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1364, 'end': 1372, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1468, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1473, 'end': 1481, 'mesh': 'D003975'}, {'text': 'flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1503, 'end': 1513, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Flumazenil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1659, 'end': 1669, 'mesh': 'D005442'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1681, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1756, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'diazepam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1757, 'end': 1765, 'mesh': 'D003975'}]" +1277,8160791,Mechanisms for protective effects of free radical scavengers on gentamicin-mediated nephropathy in rats.,"Studies were performed to examine the mechanisms for the protective effects of free radical scavengers on gentamicin (GM)-mediated nephropathy. Administration of GM at 40 mg/kg sc for 13 days to rats induced a significant reduction in renal blood flow (RBF) and inulin clearance (CIn) as well as marked tubular damage. A significant reduction in urinary guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) excretion and a significant increase in renal cortical renin and endothelin-1 contents were also observed in GM-mediated nephropathy. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) or dimethylthiourea (DMTU) significantly lessened the GM-induced decrement in CIn. The SOD-induced increase in glomerular filtration rate was associated with a marked improvement in RBF, an increase in urinary cGMP excretion, and a decrease in renal renin and endothelin-1 content. SOD did not attenuate the tubular damage. In contrast, DMTU significantly reduced the tubular damage and lipid peroxidation, but it did not affect renal hemodynamics and vasoactive substances. Neither SOD nor DMTU affected the renal cortical GM content in GM-treated rats. These results suggest that 1) both SOD and DMTU have protective effects on GM-mediated nephropathy, 2) the mechanisms for the protective effects differ for SOD and DMTU, and 3) superoxide anions play a critical role in GM-induced renal vasoconstriction.","[{'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 64, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 84, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'gentamicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 223, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 267, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'tubular damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 408, 'end': 422, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': ""guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 459, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'D006152'}, {'text': 'cGMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 497, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D006152'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 624, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 637, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'dimethylthiourea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 667, 'end': 683, 'mesh': 'C038983'}, {'text': 'DMTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 685, 'end': 689, 'mesh': 'C038983'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 718, 'end': 720, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'cGMP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 874, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D006152'}, {'text': 'tubular damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'DMTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1001, 'end': 1005, 'mesh': 'C038983'}, {'text': 'tubular damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1032, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'DMTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'C038983'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1188, 'end': 1190, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1202, 'end': 1204, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'DMTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1262, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'C038983'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1294, 'end': 1296, 'mesh': 'D005839'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1306, 'end': 1317, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'DMTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1383, 'end': 1387, 'mesh': 'C038983'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1396, 'end': 1406, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'GM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D005839'}]" +1278,8184922,Assessment of cardiomyocyte DNA synthesis during hypertrophy in adult mice.,"The ability of cardiomyocytes to synthesize DNA in response to experimentally induced cardiac hypertrophy was assessed in adult mice. Isoproterenol delivered by osmotic minipump implantation in adult C3Heb/FeJ mice resulted in a 46% increase in heart weight and a 19.3% increase in cardiomyocyte area. No DNA synthesis, as assessed by autoradiographic analysis of isolated cardiomyocytes, was observed in control or hypertrophic hearts. A survey of 15 independent inbred strains of mice revealed that ventricular cardiomyocyte nuclear number ranged from 3 to 13% mononucleate, suggesting that cardiomyocyte terminal differentiation is influenced directly or indirectly by genetic background. To determine whether the capacity for reactive DNA synthesis was also subject to genetic regulation, cardiac hypertrophy was induced in the strains of mice comprising the extremes of the nuclear number survey. These data indicate that adult mouse atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes do not synthesize DNA in response to isoproterenol-induced cardiac hypertrophy.","[{'text': 'hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 49, 'end': 60, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'cardiac hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'Isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 210, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'hypertrophic hearts', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 492, 'end': 511, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'cardiac hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 869, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D006332'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1103, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'cardiac hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1131, 'mesh': 'D006332'}]" +1279,8188982,Central cardiovascular effects of AVP and ANP in normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats.,"The purpose of the present study was to compare influence of central arginine vasopressin (AVP) and of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on control of arterial blood pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) in normotensive (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats. Three series of experiments were performed on 30 WKY and 30 SHR, chronically instrumented with guide tubes in the lateral ventricle (LV) and arterial and venous catheters. MAP and HR were monitored before and after i.v. injections of either vehicle or 1, 10 and 50 ng of AVP and 25, 125 and 500 ng of ANP. Sensitivity of cardiac component of baroreflex (CCB), expressed as a slope of the regression line was determined from relationships between systolic arterial pressure (SAP) and HR period (HRp) during phenylephrine (Phe)-induced hypertension and sodium nitroprusside (SN)-induced hypotension. CCB was measured before and after administration of either vehicle, AVP, ANP, or both peptides together. Increases of MAP occurred after LV administration of 1, 10 and 50 ng of AVP in WKY and of 10 and 50 ng in SHR. ANP did not cause significant changes in MAP in both strains as compared to vehicle, but it abolished AVP-induced MAP increase in WKY and SHR. CCB was reduced in WKY and SHR after LV administration of AVP during SN-induced hypotension. In SHR but not in WKY administration of ANP, AVP and ANP + AVP decreased CCB during Phe-induced MAP elevation. The results indicate that centrally applied AVP and ANP exert differential effects on blood pressure and baroreflex control of heart rate in WKY and SHR and suggest interaction of these two peptides in blood pressure regulation at the level of central nervous system.","[{'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 80, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'arginine vasopressin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 168, 'end': 188, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 190, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 351, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 635, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'phenylephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 870, 'end': 883, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'Phe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 885, 'end': 888, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 898, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'sodium nitroprusside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 915, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'SN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 937, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 949, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1142, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1280, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1379, 'end': 1382, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'SN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1392, 'mesh': 'D009599'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1401, 'end': 1412, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1459, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1473, 'end': 1476, 'mesh': 'D001127'}, {'text': 'Phe', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1501, 'mesh': 'D010656'}, {'text': 'AVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1569, 'end': 1572, 'mesh': 'D001127'}]" +1280,8308951,Cutaneous exposure to warfarin-like anticoagulant causing an intracerebral hemorrhage: a case report.,"A case of intercerebral hematoma due to warfarin-induced coagulopathy is presented.

A case report.,"The correlation between high serum tricyclic antidepressant concentrations and central nervous system side effects has been well established. Only a few reports exist, however, on the relationship between the serum concentrations of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and their toxic effects.

It was characterized by the onset of fever, diarrhea, shock, pulmonary edema, acute renal failure, metabolic acidosis, weight gain and leukocytosis. Thorough bacteriological screening failed to provide evidence of infection. Sequential biological assays of IL-1, IL-2, TNF and PAF were performed during Ara-C infusion to ten patients, including the four who developed the syndrome. TNF and PAF activity was found in the serum of respectively two and four of the cases, but not in the six controls. As TNF and PAF are thought to be involved in the development of septic shock and adult respiratory distress syndrome, we hypothesize that high-dose Ara-C may be associated with cytokine release.","[{'text': 'Pulmonary edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D011654'}, {'text': 'shock', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D012769'}, {'text': 'aracytine-C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 66, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'Ara-C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'lymphomas', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 173, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'fever', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 301, 'end': 306, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'diarrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 308, 'end': 316, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'shock', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 318, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D012769'}, {'text': 'pulmonary edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 325, 'end': 340, 'mesh': 'D011654'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 342, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'metabolic acidosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 363, 'end': 381, 'mesh': 'D000138'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'leukocytosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 399, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D007964'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 478, 'end': 487, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'Ara-C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 567, 'end': 572, 'mesh': 'D003561'}, {'text': 'shock', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 833, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D012769'}, {'text': 'adult respiratory distress syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 843, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D012128'}, {'text': 'Ara-C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 910, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D003561'}]" +1284,8392553,Protective effect of clentiazem against epinephrine-induced cardiac injury in rats.,"We investigated the effects of clentiazem, a 1,5-benzothiazepine calcium antagonist, on epinephrine-induced cardiomyopathy in rats. With 2-week chronic epinephrine infusion, 16 of 30 rats died within 4 days, and severe ischemic lesions and fibrosis of the left ventricles were observed. In epinephrine-treated rats, left atrial and left ventricular papillary muscle contractile responses to isoproterenol were reduced, but responses to calcium were normal or enhanced compared to controls. Left ventricular alpha and beta adrenoceptor densities were also reduced compared to controls. Treatment with clentiazem prevented epinephrine-induced death (P < .05), and attenuated the ventricular ischemic lesions and fibrosis, in a dose-dependent manner. Left atrial and left ventricular papillary muscle contractile responses to isoproterenol were reduced compared to controls in groups treated with clentiazem alone, but combined with epinephrine, clentiazem restored left atrial responses and enhanced left ventricular papillary responses to isoproterenol. On the other hand clentiazem did not prevent epinephrine-induced down-regulation of alpha and beta adrenoceptors. Interestingly, clentiazem, infused alone, resulted in decreased adrenergic receptor densities in the left ventricle. Clentiazem also did not prevent the enhanced responses to calcium seen in the epinephrine-treated animals, although the high dose of clentiazem partially attenuated the maximal response to calcium compared to epinephrine-treated animals. In conclusion, clentiazem attenuated epinephrine-induced cardiac injury, possibly through its effect on the adrenergic pathway.","[{'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 40, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'cardiac injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 60, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': '1,5-benzothiazepine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 129, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'C106746'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 149, 'end': 156, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 172, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 236, 'end': 247, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'ischemic lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 303, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 324, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 374, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 520, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 705, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'ischemic lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 773, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 794, 'end': 802, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 978, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1014, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1027, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'isoproterenol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1122, 'end': 1135, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1165, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1182, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1266, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'Clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1426, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1446, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1501, 'end': 1511, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1557, 'end': 1564, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1577, 'end': 1588, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'clentiazem', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1621, 'end': 1631, 'mesh': 'C056595'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1643, 'end': 1654, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'cardiac injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1663, 'end': 1677, 'mesh': 'D006331'}]" +1285,8511251,Cocaine induced myocardial ischemia.,We report a case of myocardial ischemia induced by cocaine.

A new model to test potential protectors.,"In laboratory animals, histology is most commonly used to study doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. However, for monitoring during treatment, large numbers of animals are needed. Recently we developed a new method to measure ECG values in freely moving mice by telemetry. With this model we investigated the effect of chronic doxorubicin administration on the ECG of freely moving BALB/c mice and the efficacy of ICRF-187 as a protective agent. The ST interval significantly widened from 15.0 +/- 1.5 to 56.8 +/- 11.8 ms in week 10 (7 weekly doses of 4 mg/kg doxorubicin given i.v. plus 3 weeks of observation). The ECG of the control animals did not change during the entire study. After sacrifice the hearts of doxorubicin-treated animals were enlarged and the atria were hypertrophic. As this schedule exerted more toxicity than needed to investigate protective agents, the protection of ICRF-187 was determined using a dose schedule with lower general toxicity (6 weekly doses of 4 mg/kg doxorubicin given i.v. plus 2 weeks of observation). On this schedule, the animals' hearts appeared normal after sacrifice and ICRF-187 (50 mg/kg given i.p. 1 h before doxorubicin) provided almost full protection. These data were confirmed by histology. The results indicate that this new model is very sensitive and enables monitoring of the development of cardiotoxicity with time. These findings result in a model that allows the testing of protectors against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity as demonstrated by the protection provided by ICRF-187.","[{'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 20, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 181, 'end': 192, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 201, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 443, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ICRF-187', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 530, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 676, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'hypertrophic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 891, 'end': 903, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 935, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'ICRF-187', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1008, 'end': 1016, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1081, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1109, 'end': 1120, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ICRF-187', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1236, 'end': 1244, 'mesh': 'D064730'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1277, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1467, 'end': 1481, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1572, 'end': 1583, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1592, 'end': 1606, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'ICRF-187', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1653, 'end': 1661, 'mesh': 'D064730'}]" +1287,8659767,Epinephrine dysrhythmogenicity is not enhanced by subtoxic bupivacaine in dogs.,"Since bupivacaine and epinephrine may both precipitate dysrhythmias, circulating bupivacaine during regional anesthesia could potentiate dysrhythmogenic effects of epinephrine. We therefore examined whether bupivacaine alters the dysrhythmogenicity of subsequent administration of epinephrine in conscious, healthy dogs and in anesthetized dogs with myocardial infarction. Forty-one conscious dogs received 10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 epinephrine. Seventeen animals responded with ventricular tachycardia (VT) within 3 min. After 3 h, these responders randomly received 1 or 2 mg/kg bupivacaine or saline over 5 min, followed by 10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 epinephrine. In the bupivacaine groups, epinephrine caused fewer prodysrhythmic effects than without bupivacaine. VT appeared in fewer dogs and at a later time, and there were more sinoatrial beats and less ectopies. Epinephrine shortened QT less after bupivacaine than in control animals. One day after experimental myocardial infarction, six additional halothane-anesthetized dogs received 4 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 epinephrine until VT appeared. After 45 min, 1 mg/kg bupivacaine was injected over 5 min, again followed by 4 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 epinephrine. In these dogs, the prodysrhythmic response to epinephrine was also mitigated by preceding bupivacaine. Bupivacaine antagonizes epinephrine dysrhythmogenicity in conscious dogs susceptible to VT and in anesthetized dogs with spontaneous postinfarct dysrhythmias. There is no evidence that systemic subtoxic bupivacaine administration enhances the dysrhythmogenicity of subsequent epinephrine.","[{'text': 'Epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 102, 'end': 113, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'dysrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 135, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 161, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 287, 'end': 298, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 361, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 430, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 558, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'VT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 583, 'end': 585, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 731, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 751, 'end': 762, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 782, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 832, 'end': 843, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'VT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 845, 'end': 847, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'Epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 948, 'end': 959, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 984, 'end': 995, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1048, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1147, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'VT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1167, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1211, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1279, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1338, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1382, 'end': 1393, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'Bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1406, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1419, 'end': 1430, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'VT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1485, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'dysrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1540, 'end': 1552, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1598, 'end': 1609, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1671, 'end': 1682, 'mesh': 'D004837'}]" +1288,8667442,"Milk-alkali syndrome induced by 1,25(OH)2D in a patient with hypoparathyroidism.","Milk-alkali syndrome was first described 70 years ago in the context of the treatment of peptic ulcer disease with large amounts of calcium and alkali.

Ten weeks of diethylstilbestrol (DES) treatment caused female F344 rat pituitaries to grow to an average of 109.2 +/- 6.3 mg (mean +/- SE) versus 11.3 +/- 1.4 mg for untreated rats, and to become highly hemorrhagic. The same DES treatment produced no significant growth (8.9 +/- 0.5 mg for treated females versus 8.7 +/- 1.1 for untreated females) or morphological changes in Brown Norway (BN) rat pituitaries. An F1 hybrid of F344 and BN exhibited significant pituitary growth after 10 weeks of DES treatment with an average mass of 26.3 +/- 0.7 mg compared with 8.6 +/- 0.9 mg for untreated rats. Surprisingly, the F1 hybrid tumors were not hemorrhagic and had hemoglobin content and outward appearance identical to that of BN. Expression of both growth and morphological changes is due to multiple genes. However, while DES-induced pituitary growth exhibited quantitative, additive inheritance, the hemorrhagic phenotype exhibited recessive, epistatic inheritance. Only 5 of the 160 F2 pituitaries exhibited the hemorrhagic phenotype; 36 of the 160 F2 pituitaries were in the F344 range of mass, but 31 of these were not hemorrhagic, indicating that the hemorrhagic phenotype is not merely a consequence of extensive growth. The hemorrhagic F2 pituitaries were all among the most massive, indicating that some of the genes regulate both phenotypes.","[{'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 22, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 85, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'estrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 118, 'end': 126, 'mesh': 'D004967'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 182, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'pituitary tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 194, 'end': 210, 'mesh': 'D010911'}, {'text': 'diethylstilbestrol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 225, 'end': 243, 'mesh': 'D004054'}, {'text': 'DES', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 245, 'end': 248, 'mesh': 'D004054'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 415, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'DES', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 437, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D004054'}, {'text': 'DES', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 708, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D004054'}, {'text': 'tumors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 839, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 855, 'end': 866, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'DES', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': 'D004054'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1114, 'end': 1125, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1238, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1336, 'end': 1347, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1369, 'end': 1380, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'hemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1455, 'mesh': 'D006470'}]" +1291,8808730,Increased expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase in bladder afferent pathways following chronic bladder irritation.,"Immunocytochemical techniques were used to examine alterations in the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in bladder pathways following acute and chronic irritation of the urinary tract of the rat. Chemical cystitis was induced by cyclophosphamide (CYP) which is metabolized to acrolein, an irritant eliminated in the urine. Injection of CYP (n = 10, 75 mg/kg, i.p.) 2 hours prior to perfusion (acute treatment) of the animals increased Fos-immunoreactivity (IR) in neurons in the dorsal commissure, dorsal horn, and autonomic regions of spinal segments (L1-L2 and L6-S1) which receive afferent inputs from the bladder, urethra, and ureter. Fos-IR in the spinal cord was not changed in rats receiving chronic CYP treatment (n = 15, 75 mg/kg, i.p., every 3rd day for 2 weeks). In control animals and in animals treated acutely with CYP, only small numbers of NOS-IR cells (0.5-0.7 cell profiles/sections) were detected in the L6-S1 dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Chronic CYP administration significantly (P < or = .002) increased bladder weight by 60% and increased (7- to 11-fold) the numbers of NOS-immunoreactive (IR) afferent neurons in the L6-S1 DRG. A small increase (1.5-fold) also occurred in the L1 DRG, but no change was detected in the L2 and L5 DRG. Bladder afferent cells in the L6-S1 DRG labeled by Fluorogold (40 microliters) injected into the bladder wall did not exhibit NOS-IR in control animals; however, following chronic CYP administration, a significant percentage of bladder afferent neurons were NOS-IR: L6 (19.8 +/- 4.6%) and S1 (25.3 +/- 2.9%). These results indicate that neuronal gene expression in visceral sensory pathways can be upregulated by chemical irritation of afferent receptors in the urinary tract and/or that pathological changes in the urinary tract can initiate chemical signals that alter the chemical properties of visceral afferent neurons.","[{'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'bladder irritation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 102, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D001745'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 215, 'end': 227, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'irritation of the urinary tract', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 291, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D014570'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 344, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 368, 'end': 384, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 386, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'acrolein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D000171'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 846, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 968, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1103, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1574, 'end': 1577, 'mesh': 'D003520'}]" +1292,8819482,"Effects of a new calcium antagonist, CD-832, on isoproterenol-induced myocardial ischemia in dogs with partial coronary stenosis.","Effects of CD-832 on isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial ischemia were studied in dogs with partial coronary stenosis of the left circumflex coronary artery and findings were compared with those for nifedipine or diltiazem. In the presence of coronary artery stenosis, 3-min periods of intracoronary ISO infusion (10 ng/kg/min) increased heart rate and maximal rate of left ventricular pressure rise, which resulted in a decrease in percentage segmental shortening and ST-segment elevation of the epicardial electrocardiogram. After the control ISO infusion with stenosis was performed, equihypotensive doses of CD-832 (3 and 10 micrograms/kg/min, n = 7), nifedipine (1 and 3 micrograms/kg/min, n = 9) or diltiazem (10 and 30 micrograms/kg/min, n = 7) were infused 5 min before and during the second and third ISO infusion. Both CD-832 and diltiazem, but not nifedipine, significantly reduced the increase in heart rate induced by ISO infusion. In contrast to nifedipine, CD-832 (10 micrograms/kg/min) prevented the decrease in percentage segmental shortening from 32 +/- 12% to 115 +/- 26% of the control value (P < .01) and ST-segment elevation from 5.6 +/- 1.0 mV to 1.6 +/- 1.3 mV (P < .01) at 3 min after ISO infusion with stenosis. Diltiazem (30 micrograms/kg/min) also prevented the decrease in percentage segmental shortening from 34 +/- 14% to 63 +/- 18% of the control value (P < .05) and ST-segment elevation from 4.7 +/- 0.7 mV to 2.1 +/- 0.7 mV (P < .01) at 3 min after ISO infusion with stenosis.

Therefore, we examined whether recombinant human (rh) IGF-I is a safer alternative for the treatment of growth failure in rats with chronic PAN nephropathy. The glomerulopathy was induced by seven serial injections of PAN over 12 wk. Experimental animals (n = 6) received rhIGF-I, 400 micrograms/d, whereas control rats (n = 6) received the vehicle. rhIGF-I improved weight gain by 14% (p < 0.05), without altering hematocrit or blood pressure in rats with renal disease. Urinary protein excretion was unaltered by rhIGF-I treatment in rats with chronic PAN nephropathy. After 12 wk, the inulin clearance was higher in rhIGF-I-treated rats, 0.48 +/- 0.08 versus 0.24 +/- 0.06 mL/min/100 g of body weight in untreated PAN nephropathy animals, p < 0.05. The improvement in GFR was not associated with enhanced glomerular hypertrophy or increased segmental glomerulosclerosis, tubulointerstitial injury, or renal cortical malondialdehyde content. In rats with PAN nephropathy, administration of rhIGF-I increased IGF-I and GH receptor gene expression, without altering the steady state level of IGF-I receptor mRNA. In normal rats with intact kidneys, rhIGF-I administration (n = 4) did not alter weight gain, blood pressure, proteinuria, GFR, glomerular planar area, renal cortical malondialdehyde content, or glomerular or tubulointerstitial damage, compared with untreated animals (n = 4). rhIGF-I treatment reduced the steady state renal IGF-I mRNA level but did not modify gene expression of the IGF-I or GH receptors. We conclude that: 1) administration of rhIGF-I improves growth and GFR in rats with chronic PAN nephropathy and 2) unlike rhGH, long-term use of rhIGF-I does not worsen renal functional and structural injury in this disease model.","[{'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 98, 'end': 109, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 227, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 254, 'end': 257, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 259, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 297, 'end': 315, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'growth failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 421, 'end': 435, 'mesh': 'D006130'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 457, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 461, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerulopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 478, 'end': 492, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 535, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 774, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 871, 'end': 874, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 875, 'end': 886, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1034, 'end': 1037, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1038, 'end': 1049, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerular hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1171, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'tubulointerstitial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1236, 'end': 1251, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1274, 'end': 1277, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1289, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1540, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1597, 'end': 1612, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'tubulointerstitial damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1639, 'end': 1664, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1930, 'end': 1933, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1934, 'end': 1945, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +1294,8829135,Nefiracetam (DM-9384) reverses apomorphine-induced amnesia of a passive avoidance response: delayed emergence of the memory retention effects.,"Nefiracetam is a novel pyrrolidone derivative which attenuates scopolamine-induced learning and post-training consolidation deficits. Given that apomorphine inhibits passive avoidance retention when given during training or in a defined 10-12h post-training period, we evaluated the ability of nefiracetam to attenuate amnesia induced by dopaminergic agonism. A step-down passive avoidance paradigm was employed and nefiracetam (3 mg/kg) and apomorphine (0.5 mg/kg) were given alone or in combination during training and at the 10-12h post-training period of consolidation. Co-administration of nefiracetam and apomorphine during training or 10h thereafter produced no significant anti-amnesic effect. However, administration of nefiracetam during training completely reversed the amnesia induced by apomorphine at the 10h post-training time and the converse was also true. These effects were not mediated by a dopaminergic mechanism as nefiracetam, at millimolar concentrations, failed to displace either [3H]SCH 23390 or [3H]spiperone binding from D1 or D2 dopamine receptor subtypes, respectively. It is suggested that nefiracetam augments molecular processes in the early stages of events which ultimately lead to consolidation of memory.","[{'text': 'Nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'DM-9384', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 13, 'end': 20, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 31, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'Nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'pyrrolidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D011760'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 206, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'learning and post-training consolidation deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 275, 'mesh': 'D007859'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 299, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 437, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 462, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 570, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 738, 'end': 749, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 765, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 872, 'end': 883, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'amnesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 931, 'mesh': 'D000647'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 943, 'end': 954, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'C058876'}, {'text': 'SCH 23390', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1153, 'end': 1162, 'mesh': 'C534628'}, {'text': 'spiperone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1170, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D013134'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1202, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'nefiracetam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1265, 'end': 1276, 'mesh': 'C058876'}]" +1295,8957205,Human corticotropin-releasing hormone and thyrotropin-releasing hormone modulate the hypercapnic ventilatory response in humans.,"Human corticotropin-releasing hormone (hCRH) and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) are known to stimulate ventilation after i.v. administration in humans. In a placebo-controlled, single-blind study we aimed to clarify if both peptides act by altering central chemosensitivity. Two subsequent CO2-rebreathing tests were performed in healthy young volunteers. During the first test 0.9% NaCl was given i.v.; during the second test 200 micrograms of hCRH (n = 12) or 400 micrograms of TRH (n = 6) was administered i.v. Nine subjects received 0.9% NaCl i.v. during both rebreathing manoeuvres. The CO2-response curves for the two tests were compared within the same subject. In the hCRH group a marked parallel shift of the CO2-response curve to the left was observed after hCRH (P < 0.01). The same effect occurred following TRH but was less striking (P = 0.05). hCRH and TRH caused a reduction in the CO2 threshold. The CO2-response curves in the control group were nearly identical. The results indicate an additive effect of both releasing hormones on the hypercapnic ventilatory response in humans, presumably independent of central chemosensitivity.","[{'text': 'corticotropin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 6, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D000324'}, {'text': 'thyrotropin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D013972'}, {'text': 'hypercapnic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 85, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D006935'}, {'text': 'corticotropin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 135, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D000324'}, {'text': 'thyrotropin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 178, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D013972'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 424, 'end': 427, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'NaCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 517, 'end': 521, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'NaCl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 676, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D012965'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 726, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 852, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1050, 'end': 1053, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'hypercapnic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1188, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D006935'}]" +1296,8985298,Lamivudine is effective in suppressing hepatitis B virus DNA in Chinese hepatitis B surface antigen carriers: a placebo-controlled trial.,"Lamivudine is a novel 2',3'-dideoxy cytosine analogue that has potent inhibitory effects on hepatitis B virus replication in vitro and in vivo. We performed a single-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess its effectiveness and safety in Chinese hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carriers. Forty-two Chinese HBsAg carriers were randomized to receive placebo (6 patients) or lamivudine orally in dosages of 25 mg, 100 mg, or 300 mg daily (12 patients for each dosage). The drug was given for 4 weeks. The patients were closely monitored clinically, biochemically, and serologically up to 4 weeks after drug treatment. All 36 patients receiving lamivudine had a decrease in hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA values of >90% (P < .001 compared with placebo). Although 25 mg of lamivudine was slightly less effective than 100 mg (P = .011) and 300 mg (P = .005), it still induced 94% suppression of HBV DNA after the fourth week of therapy. HBV DNA values returned to pretreatment levels within 4 weeks of cessation of therapy. There was no change in the hepatitis B e antigen status or in aminotransferase levels. No serious adverse events were observed. In conclusion, a 4-week course of lamivudine was safe and effective in suppression of HBV DNA in Chinese HBsAg carriers. The suppression was >90% but reversible. Studies with long-term lamivudine administration should be performed to determine if prolonged suppression of HBV DNA can be achieved.","[{'text': 'Lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B surface antigen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 99, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'Lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 138, 'end': 148, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': ""2',3'-dideoxy cytosine"", 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 160, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 230, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B surface antigen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 386, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 450, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 785, 'end': 795, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 814, 'end': 825, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 909, 'end': 919, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1197, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1321, 'end': 1331, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'HBsAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1392, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D006514'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1472, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'D019259'}]" +1297,8996419,Population-based study of risk of venous thromboembolism associated with various oral contraceptives.,"BACKGROUND: Four studies published since December, 1995, reported that the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) was higher in women who used oral contraceptives (OCs) containing the third-generation progestagens gestodene or desogestrel than in users of OCs containing second-generation progestagens. However, confounding and bias in the design of these studies may have affected the findings. The aim of our study was to re-examine the association between risk of VTE and OC use with a different study design and analysis to avoid some of the bias and confounding of the earlier studies. METHODS: We used computer records of patients from 143 general practices in the UK. The study was based on the medical records of about 540,000 women born between 1941 and 1981. All women who had a recorded diagnosis of deep-vein thrombosis, venous thrombosis not otherwise specified, or pulmonary embolus during the study period, and who had been treated with an anticoagulant were identified as potential cases of VTE. We did a cohort analysis to estimate and compare incidence of VTE in users of the main OC preparations, and a nested case-control study to calculate the odds ratios of VTE associated with use of different types of OC, after adjustment for potential confounding factors. In the case-control study, we matched cases to controls by exact year of birth, practice, and current use of OCs. We used a multiple logistic regression model that included body-mass index, number of cycles, change in type of OC prescribed within 3 months of the event, previous pregnancy, and concurrent disease. FINDINGS: 85 women met the inclusion criteria for VTE, two of whom were users of progestagen-only OCs. Of the 83 cases of VTE associated with use of combined OCs, 43 were recorded as deep-vein thrombosis, 35 as pulmonary thrombosis, and five as venous thrombosis not otherwise specified. The crude rate of VTE per 10,000 woman-years was 4.10 in current users of any OC, 3.10 in users of second-generation OCs, and 4.96 in users of third-generation preparations. After adjustment for age, the rate ratio of VTE in users of third-generation relative to second-generation OCs was 1.68 (95% CI 1.04-2.75). Logistic regression showed no significant difference in the risk of VTE between users of third-generation and second-generation OCs. Among users of third-generation progestagens, the risk of VTE was higher in users of desogestrel with 20 g ethinyloestradiol than in users of gestodene or desogestrel with 30 g ethinyloestradiol. With all second-generation OCs as the reference, the odds ratios for VTE were 3.49 (1.21-10.12) for desogestrel plus 20 g ethinyloestradiol and 1.18 (0.66-2.17) for the other third-generation progestagens. INTERPRETATION: The previously reported increase in odds ratio associated with third-generation OCs when compared with second-generation products is likely to have been the result of residual confounding by age. The increased odds ratio associated with products containing 20 micrograms ethinyloestradiol and desogestrel compared with the 30 micrograms product is biologically implausible, and is likely to be the result of preferential prescribing and, thus, confounding.","[{'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 34, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'venous thromboembolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 190, 'end': 212, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 217, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'oral contraceptives', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 248, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 269, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'progestagens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 306, 'end': 318, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': 'gestodene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 319, 'end': 328, 'mesh': 'C033273'}, {'text': 'desogestrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 332, 'end': 343, 'mesh': 'D017135'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 361, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'progestagens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 394, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 572, 'end': 575, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 580, 'end': 582, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'deep-vein thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 916, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D020246'}, {'text': 'venous thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 938, 'end': 955, 'mesh': 'D020246'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1179, 'end': 1182, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1285, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1331, 'end': 1333, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1496, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1613, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1751, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'progestagen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1782, 'end': 1793, 'mesh': 'D011372'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1799, 'end': 1802, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1823, 'end': 1826, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1859, 'end': 1862, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'deep-vein thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1884, 'end': 1904, 'mesh': 'D020246'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1922, 'end': 1932, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'venous thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1946, 'end': 1963, 'mesh': 'D020246'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2007, 'end': 2010, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2067, 'end': 2069, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2106, 'end': 2109, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2207, 'end': 2210, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2270, 'end': 2273, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2371, 'end': 2374, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2431, 'end': 2434, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'progestagens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2468, 'end': 2480, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2494, 'end': 2497, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'desogestrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2521, 'end': 2532, 'mesh': 'D017135'}, {'text': 'ethinyloestradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2543, 'end': 2560, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'gestodene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2578, 'end': 2587, 'mesh': 'C033273'}, {'text': 'desogestrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2591, 'end': 2602, 'mesh': 'D017135'}, {'text': 'ethinyloestradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2613, 'end': 2630, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2659, 'end': 2662, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'VTE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2701, 'end': 2704, 'mesh': 'D054556'}, {'text': 'desogestrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2732, 'end': 2743, 'mesh': 'D017135'}, {'text': 'ethinyloestradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2754, 'end': 2771, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'progestagens', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2824, 'end': 2836, 'mesh': 'D011374'}, {'text': 'OCs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2934, 'end': 2937, 'mesh': 'D003276'}, {'text': 'ethinyloestradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 3125, 'end': 3142, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'desogestrel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 3147, 'end': 3158, 'mesh': 'D017135'}]" +1298,9061777,MK-801 augments pilocarpine-induced electrographic seizure but protects against brain damage in rats.,"1. The authors examined the anticonvulsant effects of MK-801 on the pilocarpine-induced seizure model. Intraperitoneal injection of pilocarpine (400 mg/kg) induced tonic and clonic seizure. Scopolamine (10 mg/kg) and pentobarbital (5 mg/kg) prevented development of pilocarpine-induced behavioral seizure but MK-801 (0.5 mg/kg) did not. 2. An electrical seizure measured with hippocampal EEG appeared in the pilocarpine-treated group. Scopolamine and pentobarbital blocked the pilocarpine-induced electrographic seizure, MK-801 treatment augmented the electrographic seizure induced by pilocarpine. 3. Brain damage was assessed by examining the hippocampus microscopically. Pilocarpine produced neuronal death in the hippocampus, which showed pyknotic changes. Pentobarbital, scopolamine and MK-801 protected the brain damage by pilocarpine, though in the MK-801-treated group, the pyramidal cells of hippocampus appeared darker than normal. In all treatments, granule cells of the dentate gyrus were not affected. 4. These results indicate that status epilepticus induced by pilocarpine is initiated by cholinergic overstimulation and propagated by glutamatergic transmission, the elevation of which may cause brain damage through an excitatory NMDA receptor-mediated mechanism.","[{'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 6, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'brain damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 80, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 156, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 170, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 190, 'end': 197, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 234, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'tonic and clonic seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 266, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 292, 'end': 303, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 319, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 368, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 399, 'end': 406, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 411, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 463, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 510, 'end': 521, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'Scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 553, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 579, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 614, 'end': 621, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 688, 'end': 699, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'Brain damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 704, 'end': 716, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'Pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 776, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'neuronal death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 797, 'end': 811, 'mesh': 'D009410'}, {'text': 'Pentobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 863, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D010424'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 894, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'brain damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 915, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 931, 'end': 942, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'MK-801', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 958, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D016291'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1148, 'end': 1166, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'brain damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1313, 'end': 1325, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'NMDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1348, 'end': 1352, 'mesh': 'D016202'}]" +1299,9071336,"Paclitaxel, 5-fluorouracil, and folinic acid in metastatic breast cancer: BRE-26, a phase II trial.","5-Fluorouracil plus folinic acid and paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ) are effective salvage therapies for metastatic breast cancer patients.

Eighty-one consecutive patients (54 with coronary artery disease, and 20 with dilated cardiomyopathy) with inducible sustained ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation received oral d,l-sotalol to prevent induction of the ventricular tachyarrhythmia. During oral loading with d,l-sotalol, continuous electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring was performed. Those patients in whom d,l-sotalol prevented induction of ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation were discharged with the drug and followed up on an outpatient basis for 21 +/- 18 months. Induction of the ventricular tachyarrhythmia was prevented by oral d,l-sotalol in 35 (43%) patients; the ventricular tachyarrhythmia remained inducible in 40 (49%) patients; and two (2.5%) patients did not tolerate even 40 mg of d,l-sotalol once daily. Four (5%) patients had from torsades de pointes during the initial oral treatment with d,l-sotalol. Neither ECG [sinus-cycle length (SCL), QT or QTc interval, or U wave] nor clinical parameters identified patients at risk for torsades de pointes. However, the oral dose of d,l-sotalol was significantly lower in patients with torsades de pointes (200 +/- 46 vs. 328 +/- 53 mg/day; p = 0.0017). Risk factors associated with the development of torsades de pointes were the appearance of an U wave (p = 0.049), female gender (p = 0.015), and significant dose-corrected changes of SCL, QT interval, and QTc interval (p < 0.05). During follow-up, seven (20%) patients had a nonfatal ventricular tachycardia recurrence, and two (6%) patients died suddenly. One female patient with stable cardiac disease had recurrent torsades de pointes after 2 years of successful treatment with d,l-sotalol. Torsades de pointes occurred early during treatment even with low doses of oral d,l-sotalol. Pronounced changes in the surface ECG (cycle length, QT, and QTc) in relation to the dose of oral d,l-sotalol might identify a subgroup of patients with an increased risk for torsades de pointes. Other ECG parameters before the application of d,l-sotalol did not identify patients at increased risk for torsades de pointes. Recurrence rates of ventricular tachyarrhythmias are high despite complete suppression of the arrhythmia during programmed stimulation. Therefore programmed electrical stimulation in the case of d,l-sotalol seems to be of limited prognostic value.","[{'text': 'proarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 13, 'end': 26, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachyarrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 97, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 193, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 231, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 276, 'end': 287, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachyarrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 302, 'end': 330, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 373, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'dilated cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 410, 'end': 432, 'mesh': 'D002311'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 459, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'ventricular fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 486, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D014693'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 525, 'end': 536, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 565, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 619, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 719, 'end': 730, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 754, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'ventricular fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 781, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D014693'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 914, 'end': 941, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 964, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1002, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1126, 'end': 1137, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1197, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1248, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1376, 'end': 1395, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1434, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1476, 'end': 1495, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1592, 'end': 1611, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1828, 'end': 1851, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'cardiac disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1932, 'end': 1947, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1962, 'end': 1981, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2025, 'end': 2036, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'Torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2038, 'end': 2057, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2118, 'end': 2129, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2229, 'end': 2240, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2306, 'end': 2325, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2374, 'end': 2385, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'torsades de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2434, 'end': 2453, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachyarrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2475, 'end': 2503, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2549, 'end': 2559, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'd,l-sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2650, 'end': 2661, 'mesh': 'D013015'}]" +1301,9128918,Chronic hyperprolactinemia and changes in dopamine neurons.,"The tuberoinfundibular dopaminergic (TIDA) system is known to inhibit prolactin (PRL) secretion. In young animals this system responds to acute elevations in serum PRL by increasing its activity. However, this responsiveness is lost in aging rats with chronically high serum PRL levels. The purpose of this study was to induce hyperprolactinemia in rats for extended periods of time and examine its effects on dopaminergic systems in the brain. Hyperprolactinemia was induced by treatment with haloperidol, a dopamine receptor antagonist, and Palkovits' microdissection technique in combination with high-performance liquid chromatography was used to measure neurotransmitter concentrations in several areas of the brain. After 6 months of hyperprolactinemia, dopamine (DA) concentrations in the median eminence (ME) increased by 84% over the control group. Nine months of hyperprolactinemia produced a 50% increase in DA concentrations in the ME over the control group. However, DA response was lost if a 9-month long haloperidol-induced hyperprolactinemia was followed by a 1 1/2 month-long extremely high increase in serum PRL levels produced by implantation of MMQ cells under the kidney capsule. There was no change in the levels of DA, norepinephrine (NE), serotonin (5-HT), or their metabolites in the arcuate nucleus (AN), medial preoptic area (MPA), caudate putamen (CP), substantia nigra (SN), and zona incerta (ZI), except for a decrease in 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) in the AN after 6-months of hyperprolactinemia and an increase in DA concentrations in the AN after 9-months of hyperprolactinemia. These results demonstrate that hyperprolactinemia specifically affects TIDA neurons and these effects vary, depending on the duration and intensity of hyperprolactinemia. The age-related decrease in hypothalamic dopamine function may be associated with increases in PRL secretion.","[{'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 8, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 387, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'Hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 554, 'end': 565, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 569, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 800, 'end': 818, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 828, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 933, 'end': 951, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 979, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1040, 'end': 1042, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1079, 'end': 1090, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1300, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'norepinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1316, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'NE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1318, 'end': 1320, 'mesh': 'D009638'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1323, 'end': 1332, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1338, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1538, 'mesh': 'D006897'}, {'text': '5-HIAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1540, 'end': 1546, 'mesh': 'D006897'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1576, 'end': 1594, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1614, 'end': 1616, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1660, 'end': 1678, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1711, 'end': 1729, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'hyperprolactinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1831, 'end': 1849, 'mesh': 'D006966'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1892, 'end': 1900, 'mesh': 'D004298'}]" +1302,9132810,Treatment-related disseminated necrotizing leukoencephalopathy with characteristic contrast enhancement of the white matter.,"This report describes unique contrast enhancement of the white matter on T1-weighted magnetic resonance images of two patients with disseminated necrotizing leukoencephalopathy, which developed from acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with high-dose methotrexate.

We report a case of acute renal failure in an APL patient treated with ATRA alone. This case further supports the concern about thromboembolic complications associated with ATRA therapy in APL patients. The patients, a 43-year-old man, presented all the signs and symptoms of APL and was included in a treatment protocol with ATRA.

For this purpose, experimental conditions were created in which NSAIDs had previously been observed to produce effects on phasic and tonic pain by either central or peripheral mechanisms. METHODS: According to a double-blind, randomised, controlled, threefold cross-over design, 18 healthy subjects (11 males, 7 females; mean age 26 years) received either placebo, 400 mg ibuprofen, or 800 mg ibuprofen. Phasic pain was applied by means of short pulses of CO2 to the nasal mucosa (stimulus duration 500 ms, interval approximately 60 s), and tonic pain was induced in the nasal cavity by means of dry air of controlled temperature, humidity and flow rate (22 degrees C, 0% relative humidity, 145 ml.s-1). Both CSSEPs as central and NMPs as peripheral correlates of pain were obtained in response to the CO2 stimuli. Additionally, the subjects rated the intensity of both phasic and tonic pain by means of visual analogue scales. RESULTS: As described earlier, administration of ibuprofen was followed by a decrease in tonic pain but-relative to placebo-an increase in correlates of phasic pain, indicating a specific effect of ibuprofen on the interaction between the pain stimuli under these special experimental conditions. Based on the similar behaviour of CSSEP and NMP, it was concluded that the pharmacological process underlying this phenomenon was localised in the periphery. By means of the simultaneous recording of interrelated peripheral and central electrophysiologic correlates of nociception, it was possible to separate central and peripheral effects of an NSAID. The major advantage of this pain model is the possibility of obtaining peripheral pain-related activity directly using a non-invasive technique in humans.","[{'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 158, 'end': 162, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 511, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 744, 'end': 753, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 765, 'end': 774, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 783, 'end': 787, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 828, 'end': 831, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 919, 'end': 923, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'CO2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1174, 'end': 1177, 'mesh': 'D002245'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1259, 'end': 1263, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1395, 'end': 1399, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1460, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1507, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1539, 'end': 1543, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1979, 'end': 1983, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2033, 'end': 2037, 'mesh': 'D010146'}]" +1306,9323412,Acute severe depression following peri-operative ondansetron.,"A 41-year-old woman with a strong history of postoperative nausea and vomiting presented for abdominal hysterectomy 3 months after a previous anaesthetic where ondansetron prophylaxis had been used.

This study was done to assess the influence of a high intracoronary cocaine concentration on LV systolic and diastolic function in humans. METHODS AND RESULTS: In 20 patients (14 men and 6 women aged 39 to 72 years) referred for cardiac catheterization for the evaluation of chest pain, we measured heart rate, systemic arterial pressure, LV pressure and its first derivative (dP/dt), and LV volumes and ejection fraction before and during the final 2 to 3 minutes of a 15-minute intracoronary infusion of saline (n=10, control subjects) or cocaine hydrochloride 1 mg/min (n=10). No variable changed with saline. With cocaine, the drug concentration in blood obtained from the coronary sinus was 3.0+/-0.4 (mean+/-SD) mg/L, similar in magnitude to the blood cocaine concentration reported in abusers dying of cocaine intoxication. Cocaine induced no significant change in heart rate, LV dP/dt (positive or negative), or LV end-diastolic volume, but it caused an increase in systolic and mean arterial pressures, LV end-diastolic pressure, and LV end-systolic volume, as well as a decrease in LV ejection fraction.

We report on the development of 8 serious cases of ischemic colitis in patients with migraine treated with sumatriptan.","[{'text': 'Ischemic colitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D017091'}, {'text': 'sumatriptan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 21, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D018170'}, {'text': 'Sumatriptan succinate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 38, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D018170'}, {'text': 'serotonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-hydroxytryptamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 76, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'coronary vasospasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 411, 'end': 429, 'mesh': 'D003329'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 431, 'end': 450, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'sumatriptan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 494, 'end': 505, 'mesh': 'D018170'}, {'text': 'ischemic colitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 562, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D017091'}, {'text': 'migraine', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 596, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D008881'}, {'text': 'sumatriptan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 618, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D018170'}]" +1314,9782254,Pallidotomy with the gamma knife: a positive experience.,"51 patients with medically refractory Parkinson's disease underwent stereotactic posteromedial pallidotomy between August 1993 and February 1997 for treatment of bradykinesia, rigidity, and L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias. In 29 patients, the pallidotomies were performed with the Leksell Gamma Knife and in 22 they were performed with the standard radiofrequency (RF) method. Clinical assessment as well as blinded ratings of Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) scores were carried out pre- and postoperatively. Mean follow-up time is 20.6 months (range 6-48) and all except 4 patients have been followed more than one year. 85 percent of patients with dyskinesias were relieved of symptoms, regardless of whether the pallidotomies were performed with the Gamma Knife or radiofrequency methods. About 2/3 of the patients in both Gamma Knife and radiofrequency groups showed improvements in bradykinesia and rigidity, although when considered as a group neither the Gamma Knife nor the radiofrequency group showed statistically significant improvements in UPDRS scores. One patient in the Gamma Knife group (3.4%) developed a homonymous hemianopsia 9 months following treatment and 5 patients (27.7%) in the radiofrequency group became transiently confused postoperatively. No other complications were seen. Gamma Knife pallidotomy is as effective as radiofrequency pallidotomy in controlling certain of the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. It may be the only practical technique available in certain patients, such as those who take anticoagulants, have bleeding diatheses or serious systemic medical illnesses. It is a viable option for other patients as well.","[{'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 95, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'bradykinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 219, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D018476'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 233, 'end': 241, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 247, 'end': 253, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 262, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's Disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 487, 'end': 506, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 719, 'end': 730, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'bradykinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 956, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D018476'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 973, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'homonymous hemianopsia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1191, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D006423'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1485, 'end': 1504, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1620, 'end': 1628, 'mesh': 'D006470'}]" +1315,9831002,Neuroleptic malignant syndrome and methylphenidate.,"A 1-year-old female presented with neuroleptic malignant syndrome probably caused by methylphenidate. She had defects in the supratentorial brain including the basal ganglia and the striatum (multicystic encephalomalacia) due to severe perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, which was considered to be a possible predisposing factor causing neuroleptic malignant syndrome. A dopaminergic blockade mechanism generally is accepted as the pathogenesis of this syndrome. However, methylphenidate is a dopamine agonist via the inhibition of uptake of dopamine, and therefore dopaminergic systems in the brainstem (mainly the midbrain) and the spinal cord were unlikely to participate in the onset of this syndrome. A relative gamma-aminobutyric acid-ergic deficiency might occur because diazepam, a gamma-aminobutyric acid-mimetic agent, was strikingly effective.

For this purpose, bile salt pool composition, synthesis of individual BS in vivo, hepatic activities, and expression levels of cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A), and sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27), as well as of other enzymes involved in BS synthesis, were analyzed in rats treated with EE (5 mg/kg, 3 days) or its vehicle. BS pool size was decreased by 27% but total BS synthesis was not affected by EE in intact rats. Synthesis of cholate was reduced by 68% in EE-treated rats, while that of chenodeoxycholate was increased by 60%. The recently identified Delta22-isomer of beta-muricholate contributed for 5.4% and 18.3 % (P < 0.01) to the pool in control and EE-treated rats, respectively, but could not be detected in bile after exhaustion of the pool. A clear reduction of BS synthesis was found in bile-diverted rats treated with EE, yet biliary BS composition was only minimally affected. Activity of CYP7A was decreased by EE in both intact and bile-diverted rats, whereas the activity of the CYP27 was not affected. Hepatic mRNA levels of CYP7A were significantly reduced by EE in bile-diverted rats only; CYP27 mRNA levels were not affected by EE. In addition, mRNA levels of sterol 12alpha-hydroxylase and lithocholate 6beta-hydroxylase were increased by bile diversion and suppressed by EE. This study shows that 17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE)-induced intrahepatic cholestasis in rats is associated with selective inhibition of the neutral pathway of bile salt (BS) synthesis. Simultaneous impairment of other enzymes in the BS biosynthetic pathways may contribute to overall effects of EE on BS synthesis.","[{'text': '17alpha-ethinylestradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'bile salt', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 87, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': '17alpha-ethinylestradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 130, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 156, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'bile salt', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 220, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 222, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 352, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'bile salt', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 384, 'end': 393, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 436, 'end': 438, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'cholesterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 493, 'end': 504, 'mesh': 'D002784'}, {'text': 'sterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 543, 'mesh': 'D013261'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 608, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 657, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 694, 'end': 696, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 738, 'end': 740, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 771, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'cholate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 803, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D020355'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 833, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'chenodeoxycholate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 864, 'end': 881, 'mesh': 'D002635'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1033, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1149, 'end': 1151, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1209, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1223, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1302, 'end': 1304, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1525, 'end': 1527, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'sterol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1557, 'end': 1563, 'mesh': 'D013261'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1670, 'end': 1672, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': '17alpha-ethinylestradiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1696, 'end': 1720, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1722, 'end': 1724, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'intrahepatic cholestasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1734, 'end': 1758, 'mesh': 'D002780'}, {'text': 'bile salt', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1833, 'end': 1842, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1844, 'end': 1846, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1907, 'end': 1909, 'mesh': 'D001647'}, {'text': 'EE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1969, 'end': 1971, 'mesh': 'D004997'}, {'text': 'BS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1975, 'end': 1977, 'mesh': 'D001647'}]" +1317,9881641,Glibenclamide-sensitive hypotension produced by helodermin assessed in the rat.,"The effects of helodermin, a basic 35-amino acid peptide isolated from the venom of a lizard salivary gland, on arterial blood pressure and heart rate were examined in the rat, focusing on the possibility that activation of ATP sensitive K+ (K(ATP)) channels is involved in the responses. The results were also compared with those of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP). Helodermin produced hypotension in a dose-dependent manner with approximately similar potency and duration to VIP. Hypotension induced by both peptides was significantly attenuated by glibenclamide, which abolished a levcromakalim-produced decrease in arterial blood pressure. Oxyhemoglobin did not affect helodermin-induced hypotension, whereas it shortened the duration of acetylcholine (ACh)-produced hypotension. These findings suggest that helodermin-produced hypotension is partly attributable to the activation of glibenclamide-sensitive K+ channels (K(ATP) channels), which presumably exist on arterial smooth muscle cells.

The positive skin tests are in favour of immunological reactions and may help in diagnosis of allergy in the patients.","[{'text': 'contrast media', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'contrast materials', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 164, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'PRC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 184, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'PRC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 392, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'dyspnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 518, 'end': 525, 'mesh': 'D004417'}, {'text': 'loss of consciousness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 527, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D014474'}, {'text': 'macro-papular rash', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 562, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D003875'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 671, 'end': 675, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'PRC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 882, 'end': 885, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'allergy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1027, 'mesh': 'D004342'}]" +1321,10327032,Risk of transient hyperammonemic encephalopathy in cancer patients who received continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil with the complication of dehydration and infection.,"From 1986 to 1998, 29 cancer patients who had 32 episodes of transient hyperammonemic encephalopathy related to continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) were identified. None of the patients had decompensated liver disease. Onset of hyperammonemic encephalopathy varied from 0.5 to 5 days (mean: 2.6 +/- 1.3 days) after the initiation of chemotherapy. Plasma ammonium level ranged from 248 to 2387 microg% (mean: 626 +/- 431 microg%). Among the 32 episodes, 26 (81%) had various degrees of azotemia, 18 (56%) occurred during bacterial infections and 14 (44%) without infection occurred during periods of dehydration. Higher plasma ammonium levels and more rapid onset of hyperammonemia were seen in 18 patients with bacterial infections (p=0.003 and 0.0006, respectively) and in nine patients receiving high daily doses (2600 or 1800 mg/m2) of 5-FU (p=0.0001 and < 0.0001, respectively). In 25 out of 32 episodes (78%), plasma ammonium levels and mental status returned to normal within 2 days after adequate management. In conclusion, hyperammonemic encephalopathy can occur in patients receiving continuous infusion of 5-FU. Azotemia, body fluid insufficiency and bacterial infections were frequently found in these patients. It is therefore important to recognize this condition in patients receiving continuous infusion of 5-FU.","[{'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 51, 'end': 57, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 103, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'dehydration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 143, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D003681'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 159, 'end': 168, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 192, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 305, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 321, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 383, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'ammonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 533, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D000644'}, {'text': 'azotemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 664, 'end': 672, 'mesh': 'D053099'}, {'text': 'bacterial infections', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 699, 'end': 719, 'mesh': 'D001424'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 741, 'end': 750, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'dehydration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 778, 'end': 789, 'mesh': 'D003681'}, {'text': 'ammonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 805, 'end': 813, 'mesh': 'D000644'}, {'text': 'hyperammonemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 845, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D022124'}, {'text': 'bacterial infections', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 890, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D001424'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1018, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'ammonium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1101, 'end': 1109, 'mesh': 'D000644'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1299, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'Azotemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D053099'}, {'text': 'bacterial infections', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D001424'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1501, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D005472'}]" +1322,10390729,The effects of quinine and 4-aminopyridine on conditioned place preference and changes in motor activity induced by morphine in rats.,"1. The effects of two unselective potassium (K(+)-) channel blockers, quinine (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg) and 4-aminopyridine (1 and 2 mg/kg), on conditioned place preference and biphasic changes in motor activity induced by morphine (10 mg/kg) were tested in Wistar rats. Quinine is known to block voltage-, calcium- and ATP-sensitive K(+)-channels while 4-aminopyridine is known to block voltage-sensitive K(+)-channels. 2. In the counterbalanced method, quinine attenuated morphine-induced place preference, whereas 4-aminopyridine was ineffective. In the motor activity test measured with an Animex-activity meter neither of the K(+)-channel blockers affected morphine-induced hypoactivity, but both K(+)-channel blockers prevented morphine-induced secondary hyperactivity. 3. These results suggest the involvement of quinine-sensitive but not 4-aminopyridine-sensitive K(+)-channels in morphine reward. It is also suggested that the blockade of K(+)-channels sensitive to these blockers is not sufficient to prevent morphine-induced hypoactivity whereas morphine-induced hyperactivity seems to be connected to both quinine- and 4-aminopyridine-sensitive K(+)-channels.","[{'text': 'quinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 15, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'D011803'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 116, 'end': 124, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'potassium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 168, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'quinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 204, 'end': 211, 'mesh': 'D011803'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 240, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 355, 'end': 363, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'Quinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 410, 'mesh': 'D011803'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 439, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 452, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 466, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 486, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 538, 'end': 539, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'quinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 587, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D011803'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 606, 'end': 614, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 649, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 763, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 802, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'hypoactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 811, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 834, 'end': 835, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 866, 'end': 874, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 893, 'end': 906, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'quinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 952, 'end': 959, 'mesh': 'D011803'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 978, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1004, 'end': 1005, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1021, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1081, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1151, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'hypoactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1180, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1189, 'end': 1197, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'hyperactivity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1206, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D006948'}, {'text': 'quinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1250, 'end': 1257, 'mesh': 'D011803'}, {'text': '4-aminopyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1278, 'mesh': 'D015761'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D011188'}]" +1323,10401555,Nociceptin/orphanin FQ and nocistatin on learning and memory impairment induced by scopolamine in mice.,"1. Nociceptin, also known as orphanin FQ, is an endogenous ligand for the orphan opioid receptor-like receptor 1 (ORL1) and involves in various functions in the central nervous system (CNS). On the other hand, nocistatin is recently isolated from the same precursor as nociceptin and blocks nociceptin-induced allodynia and hyperalgesia. 2. Although ORL1 receptors which display a high degree of sequence homology with classical opioid receptors are abundant in the hippocampus, little is known regarding their role in learning and memory. 3. The present study was designed to investigate whether nociceptin/orphanin FQ and nocistatin could modulate impairment of learning and memory induced by scopolamine, a muscarinic cholinergic receptor antagonist, using spontaneous alternation of Y-maze and step-down type passive avoidance tasks in mice. 4. While nocistatin (0.5-5.0 nmol mouse-1, i.c.v.) administered 30 min before spontaneous alternation performance or the training session of the passive avoidance task, had no effect on spontaneous alternation or passive avoidance behaviours, a lower per cent alternation and shorter median step-down latency in the retention test were obtained in nociceptin (1.5 and/or 5.0 nmol mouse-1, i.c.v.)-treated normal mice. 5. Administration of nocistatin (1.5 and/or 5.0 nmol mouse-1, i.c.v.) 30 min before spontaneous alternation performance or the training session of the passive avoidance task, attenuated the scopolamine-induced impairment of spontaneous alternation and passive avoidance behaviours. 6. These results indicated that nocistatin, a new biologically active peptide, ameliorates impairments of spontaneous alternation and passive avoidance induced by scopolamine, and suggested that these peptides play opposite roles in learning and memory.","[{'text': 'Nociceptin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'orphanin FQ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'nocistatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'C111148'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 83, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'Nociceptin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 107, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'orphanin FQ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 133, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'nocistatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 314, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'C111148'}, {'text': 'nociceptin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 373, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'nociceptin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 395, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'allodynia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 414, 'end': 423, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 428, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'nociceptin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 701, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'orphanin FQ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'nocistatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 728, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'C111148'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 810, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'nocistatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 959, 'end': 969, 'mesh': 'C111148'}, {'text': 'nociceptin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'C096012'}, {'text': 'nocistatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1389, 'end': 1399, 'mesh': 'C111148'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D012601'}, {'text': 'nocistatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1682, 'end': 1692, 'mesh': 'C111148'}, {'text': 'scopolamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1813, 'end': 1824, 'mesh': 'D012601'}]" +1324,10427794,Meloxicam-induced liver toxicity.,"We report the case of a female patient with rheumatoid arthritis who developed acute cytolytic hepatitis due to meloxicam.

We have examined the ability of remoxipride, three pyrrolidine ring metabolites and five aromatic ring metabolites of the parent compound to induce apoptosis in HL60 cells and human bone marrow progenitor (HBMP) cells. Cells were treated for 0-24 h with each compound (0-200 microM). Apoptosis was assessed by fluorescence microscopy in Hoechst 33342- and propidium iodide stained cell samples. Results were confirmed by determination of internucleosomal DNA fragmentation using gel electrophoresis for HL60 cell samples and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase assay in HBMP cells. The catechol and hydroquinone metabolites, NCQ436 and NCQ344, induced apoptosis in HL60 and HBMP cells in a time- and concentration dependent manner, while the phenols, NCR181, FLA873, and FLA797, and the derivatives formed by oxidation of the pyrrolidine ring, FLA838, NCM001, and NCL118, had no effect. No necrosis was observed in cells treated with NCQ436 but NCQ344 had a biphasic effect in both cell types, inducing apoptosis at lower concentrations and necrosis at higher concentrations. These data show that the catechol and hydroquinone metabolites of remoxipride have direct toxic effects in HL60 and HBMP cells, leading to apoptosis, while the phenol metabolites were inactive. Similarly, benzene-derived catechol and hydroquinone, but not phenol, induce apoptosis in HBMP cells [Moran et al., Mol. Pharmacol., 50 (1996) 610-615].

This effect undergoes rapid tolerance, showing a significant decrease after 2 days of sub-chronic L-NOARG treatment. Nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to influence dopaminergic neurotransmission in the striatum. Neuroleptic drugs such as haloperidol, which block dopamine receptors, also cause catalepsy in rodents. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effects of subchronic L-NOARG treatment in haloperidol-induced catalepsy and the number of NOS neurons in areas related to motor control. METHODS: Male albino Swiss mice were treated sub-chronically (twice a day for 4 days) with L-NOARG (40 mg/kg i.p.) or haloperidol (1 mg/kg i.p.). Catalepsy was evaluated at the beginning and the end of the treatments. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) histochemistry was also employed to visualize NOS as an index of enzyme expression in mice brain regions related to motor control. RESULTS: L-NOARG sub-chronic administration produced tolerance of L-NOARG and of haloperidol-induced catalepsy. It also induced an increase in the number of NADPH-d-positive cells in the dorsal part of the caudate and accumbens nuclei compared with haloperidol and in the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus compared with saline. In contrast, there was a decrease in NADPH-d neuron number in the substantia nigra, pars compacta in both haloperidol-treated and L-NOARG-treated animals. CONCLUSIONS: The results give further support to the hypothesis that NO plays a role in motor behavior control and suggest that it may take part in the synaptic changes produced by antipsychotic treatment.","[{'text': 'nitric-oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 26, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 69, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 78, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'NADPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 106, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D009249'}, {'text': 'NG-nitro-L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 151, 'end': 170, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'L-NOARG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 172, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'nitric-oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 198, 'end': 210, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 235, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'L-NOARG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 352, 'end': 359, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'Nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 371, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 385, 'end': 387, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 491, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 547, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'L-NOARG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 622, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 643, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 663, 'end': 672, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'L-NOARG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 829, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 856, 'end': 867, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'Catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 884, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 964, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D009249'}, {'text': 'NADPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D009249'}, {'text': 'L-NOARG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1169, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'L-NOARG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1226, 'end': 1233, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1241, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1270, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'NADPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1317, 'end': 1322, 'mesh': 'D009249'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1409, 'end': 1420, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'NADPH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D009249'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1595, 'end': 1606, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'L-NOARG', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1619, 'end': 1626, 'mesh': 'D019335'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1713, 'end': 1715, 'mesh': 'D009569'}]" +1328,10677406,Prolonged left ventricular dysfunction occurs in patients with coronary artery disease after both dobutamine and exercise induced myocardial ischaemia.,"OBJECTIVE: To determine whether pharmacological stress leads to prolonged but reversible left ventricular dysfunction in patients with coronary artery disease, similar to that seen after exercise. DESIGN: A randomised crossover study of recovery time of systolic and diastolic left ventricular function after exercise and dobutamine induced ischaemia. SUBJECTS: 10 patients with stable angina, angiographically proven coronary artery disease, and normal left ventricular function. INTERVENTIONS: Treadmill exercise and dobutamine stress were performed on different days. Quantitative assessment of systolic and diastolic left ventricular function was performed using transthoracic echocardiography at baseline and at regular intervals after each test. RESULTS: Both forms of stress led to prolonged but reversible systolic and diastolic dysfunction. There was no difference in the maximum double product (p = 0.53) or ST depression (p = 0.63) with either form of stress. After exercise, ejection fraction was reduced at 15 and 30 minutes compared with baseline (mean (SEM), -5.6 (1.5)%, p < 0.05; and -6.1 (2.2)%, p < 0. 01), and at 30 and 45 minutes after dobutamine (-10.8 (1.8)% and -5. 5 (1.8)%, both p < 0.01). Regional analysis showed a reduction in the worst affected segment 15 and 30 minutes after exercise (-27.9 (7.2)% and -28.6 (5.7)%, both p < 0.01), and at 30 minutes after dobutamine (-32 (5.3)%, p < 0.01). The isovolumic relaxation period was prolonged 45 minutes after each form of stress (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with coronary artery disease, dobutamine induced ischaemia results in prolonged reversible left ventricular dysfunction, presumed to be myocardial stunning, similar to that seen after exercise. Dobutamine induced ischaemia could therefore be used to study the pathophysiology of this phenomenon further in patients with coronary artery disease.","[{'text': 'left ventricular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 10, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 98, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 130, 'end': 150, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'left ventricular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 241, 'end': 269, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 287, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'ischaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 493, 'end': 502, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'stable angina', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 531, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D060050'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 570, 'end': 593, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 671, 'end': 681, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1309, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1540, 'end': 1550, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1701, 'end': 1724, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1726, 'end': 1736, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'ischaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1745, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'left ventricular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1787, 'end': 1815, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'myocardial stunning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1832, 'end': 1851, 'mesh': 'D017682'}, {'text': 'Dobutamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1890, 'end': 1900, 'mesh': 'D004280'}, {'text': 'ischaemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1909, 'end': 1918, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2016, 'end': 2039, 'mesh': 'D003324'}]" +1329,10713017,Anorexigens and pulmonary hypertension in the United States: results from the surveillance of North American pulmonary hypertension.,"BACKGROUND: The use of appetite suppressants in Europe has been associated with the development of primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH). Recently, fenfluramine appetite suppressants became widely used in the United States but were withdrawn in September 1997 because of concerns over adverse effects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a prospective surveillance study on patients diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension at 12 large referral centers in North America. Data collected on patients seen from September 1, 1996, to December 31, 1997, included the cause of the pulmonary hypertension and its severity. Patients with no identifiable cause of pulmonary hypertension were classed as PPH. A history of drug exposure also was taken with special attention on the use of antidepressants, anorexigens, and amphetamines. RESULTS: Five hundred seventy-nine patients were studied, 205 with PPH and 374 with pulmonary hypertension from other causes (secondary pulmonary hypertension [SPH]). The use of anorexigens was common in both groups. However, of the medications surveyed, only the fenfluramines had a significant preferential association with PPH as compared with SPH (adjusted odds ratio for use > 6 months, 7.5; 95% confidence interval, 1.7 to 32.4). The association was stronger with longer duration of use when compared to shorter duration of use and was more pronounced in recent users than in remote users. An unexpectedly high (11.4%) number of patients with SPH had used anorexigens. CONCLUSION: The magnitude of the association with PPH, the increase of association with increasing duration of use, and the specificity for fenfluramines are consistent with previous studies indicating that fenfluramines are causally related to PPH. The high prevalence of anorexigen use in patients with SPH also raises the possibility that these drugs precipitate pulmonary hypertension in patients with underlying conditions associated with SPH.","[{'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 109, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'primary pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 232, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'PPH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 264, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'fenfluramine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 280, 'end': 292, 'mesh': 'D005277'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 530, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 704, 'end': 726, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 784, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'PPH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 823, 'end': 826, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'amphetamines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 941, 'end': 953, 'mesh': 'D000662'}, {'text': 'PPH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1025, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1061, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1091, 'end': 1113, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'fenfluramines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1232, 'mesh': 'D005277'}, {'text': 'PPH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1281, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'PPH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1680, 'end': 1683, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'fenfluramines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1770, 'end': 1783, 'mesh': 'D005277'}, {'text': 'fenfluramines', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1837, 'end': 1850, 'mesh': 'D005277'}, {'text': 'PPH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1875, 'end': 1878, 'mesh': 'D006976'}, {'text': 'pulmonary hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1996, 'end': 2018, 'mesh': 'D006976'}]" +1330,10726030,Clinical aspects of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis and other side effects of heparin therapy.,"Heparin, first used to prevent the clotting of blood in vitro, has been clinically used to treat thrombosis for more than 50 years. Although several new anticoagulant drugs are in development, heparin remains the anticoagulant of choice to treat acute thrombotic episodes. The clinical effects of heparin are meritorious, but side effects do exist. Bleeding is the primary untoward effect of heparin. Major bleeding is of primary concern in patients receiving heparin therapy. However, additional important untoward effects of heparin therapy include heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, heparin-associated osteoporosis, eosinophilia, skin reactions, allergic reactions other than thrombocytopenia, alopecia, transaminasemia, hyperkalemia, hypoaldosteronism, and priapism. These side effects are relatively rare in a given individual, but given the extremely widespread use of heparin, some are quite common, particularly HITT and osteoporosis. Although reasonable incidences of many of these side effects can be ""softly"" deduced from current reports dealing with unfractionated heparin, at present the incidences of these side effects with newer low molecular weight heparins appear to be much less common. However, only longer experience will more clearly define the incidence of each side effect with low molecular weight preparations.","[{'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 27, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 36, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 67, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 94, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'Heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 208, 'end': 218, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 363, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 408, 'end': 415, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'Bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 460, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 503, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 518, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 571, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 638, 'end': 645, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 662, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 678, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 696, 'end': 703, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'osteoporosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 715, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D010024'}, {'text': 'eosinophilia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 729, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D004802'}, {'text': 'skin reactions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 743, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D012871'}, {'text': 'allergic reactions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 759, 'end': 777, 'mesh': 'D004342'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 789, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'alopecia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 807, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D000505'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 834, 'end': 846, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'hypoaldosteronism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 848, 'end': 865, 'mesh': 'D006994'}, {'text': 'priapism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 871, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D011317'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 985, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HITT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D013921|D013927'}, {'text': 'osteoporosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1039, 'end': 1051, 'mesh': 'D010024'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1187, 'end': 1194, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1276, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D006493'}]" +1331,10764869,A case of bilateral optic neuropathy in a patient on tacrolimus (FK506) therapy after liver transplantation.,"PURPOSE: To report a case of bilateral optic neuropathy in a patient receiving tacrolimus (FK 506, Prograf; Fujisawa USA, Inc, Deerfield, Illinois) for immunosuppression after orthotropic liver transplantation.

A printout of all cases of hypercalcemia that presented during a 1-year period was generated. After eliminating spurious hypercalcemias or those associated with intravenous fluids, the authors identified 18 non-lithium-treated patients with hypercalcemias related to malignancies and other medical conditions (group A) and 12 patients with lithium-associated hypercalcemia (group B). Patients in group B were not comparable to those in group A, as the latter were medically compromised and were receiving multiple pharmacotherapies. Thus, two control groups were generated: group C1, which included age- and sex-comparable lithium-treated bipolar normocalcemic patients, and group C2, which included bipolar normocalcemic patients treated with anticonvulsant mood stabilizers. The electrocardiographic (ECG) findings for patients in group B were compared with those of patients in groups C1 and C2. It was found that these groups did not differ in their overall frequency of ECG abnormalities; however, there were significant differences in the frequency of conduction defects. Patients with hypercalcemia resulting from medical diseases and bipolar patients with lithium-associated hypercalcemia had significantly higher frequencies of conduction defects. Patients in group A had significant mortality at 2-year follow-up (28%), in contrast to zero mortality in the other three groups. The clinical implications of these findings are discussed.","[{'text': 'Hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'arrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 25, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'bipolar', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 108, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 138, 'end': 151, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'bradyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 163, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'bipolar', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 236, 'end': 243, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 258, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 277, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 332, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 413, 'end': 427, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 503, 'end': 510, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'malignancies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 559, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 651, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 915, 'end': 922, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'bipolar', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 931, 'end': 938, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 992, 'end': 999, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1384, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D006934'}, {'text': 'bipolar', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1434, 'end': 1441, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1456, 'end': 1463, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'hypercalcemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1488, 'mesh': 'D006934'}]" +1333,10933650,Attenuation of nephrotoxicity by a novel lipid nanosphere (NS-718) incorporating amphotericin B.,"NS-718, a lipid nanosphere incorporating amphotericin B, is effective against pathogenic fungi and has low toxicity. We compared the toxicity of NS-718 with that of Fungizone (amphotericin B-sodium deoxycholate; D-AmB) in vitro using renal cell cultures and in vivo by biochemical analysis, histopathological study of the kidney and pharmacokinetic study of amphotericin B following intravenous infusion of the formulation in rats. Incubation with NS-718 resulted in significantly less damage of cultured human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells compared with D-AmB. Serum blood urea and creatinine concentrations increased significantly in rats given an iv infusion of D-AmB 3 mg/kg but not in those given the same dose of NS-718. Histopathological examination of the kidney showed tubular necrosis in D-AmB-treated rats but no change in NS-718-treated rats. Amphotericin B concentrations in the kidney in NS-718-treated rats were higher than those in D-AmB-treated rats.

All patients recovered their previous normal renal function after adequate hydration and alcalinization. A nephrostomy tube had to be placed in one of the patients for ureteral lithiasis in a single functional kidney. None of them needed dialysis or a renal biopsy because of a typical benign course. Treatment with sulfadiazine requires exquisite control of renal function, an increase in water ingestion and possibly the alcalinization of the urine.

All dogs (n = 6) randomly received orally dronedarone (10 and 30 mg/kg), amiodarone (10 and 30 mg/kg), and placebo twice daily for 7 days, with a 3-week washout between consecutive treatments. Heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MBP), positive rate of increase of left ventricular pressure (+LVdP/dt), echocardiographically assessed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and fractional shortening (FS), as well as chronotropic response to isoproterenol and exercise-induced sympathetic stimulation were evaluated under baseline and posttreatment conditions. Resting values of LVEF, FS, +LVdP/dt, and MBP remained unchanged whatever the drug and the dosing regimen, whereas resting HR was significantly and dose-dependently lowered after dronedarone and to a lesser extent after amiodarone. Both dronedarone and amiodarone significantly reduced the exercise-induced tachycardia and, at the highest dose, decreased the isoproterenol-induced tachycardia. Thus, dronedarone and amiodarone displayed a similar level of antiadrenergic effect and did not impair the resting left ventricular function.

We wished to develop a more tolerable liposomal doxorubicin treatment regimen and document its level of activity in a well-defined patient population with platinum/paclitaxel-refractory disease. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patients with ovarian or fallopian tube cancers or primary peritoneal carcinoma with platinum/paclitaxel-refractory disease (stable or progressive disease following treatment with these agents or previous objective response <3 months in duration) were treated with liposomal doxorubicin at a dose of 40 mg/m(2) q 4 weeks. RESULTS: A total of 49 patients (median age: 60; range 41-81) entered this phase 2 trial. The median number of prior regimens was 2 (range: 1-6). Six (12%) and 4 (8%) patients experienced grade 2 hand-foot syndrome and stomatitis, respectively (no episodes of grade 3). One patient developed grade 3 diarrhea requiring hospitalization for hydration. Six (12%) individuals required dose reductions. The median number of courses of liposomal doxorubicin administered on this protocol was 2 (range: 1-12).

The Olanzipine HGGW Study Group.","BACKGROUND: We compared the efficacy and safety of olanzapine vs placebo for the treatment of acute bipolar mania. METHODS: Four-week, randomized, double-blind, parallel study. A total of 115 patients with a DSM-IV diagnosis of bipolar disorder, manic or mixed, were randomized to olanzapine, 5 to 20 mg/d (n = 55), or placebo (n = 60). The primary efficacy measure was the Young-Mania Rating Scale (Y-MRS) total score. Response and euthymia were defined, a priori, as at least a 50% improvement from baseline to end point and as a score of no less than 12 at end point in the Y-MRS total score, respectively. Safety was assessed using adverse events, Extrapyramidal Symptom (EPS) rating scales, laboratory values, electrocardiograms, vital signs, and weight change. RESULTS: Olanzapine-treated patients demonstrated a statistically significant greater mean (+/- SD) improvement in Y-MRS total score than placebo-treated patients (-14.8 +/- 12.5 and -8.1 +/- 12.7, respectively; P<.001), which was evident at the first postbaseline observation 1 week after randomization and was maintained throughout the study (last observation carried forward). Olanzapine-treated patients demonstrated a higher rate of response (65% vs 43%, respectively; P =.02) and euthymia (61% vs 36%, respectively; P =. 01) than placebo-treated patients. There were no statistically significant differences in EPSs between groups. However, olanzapine-treated patients had a statistically significant greater mean (+/- SD) weight gain than placebo-treated patients (2.1 +/- 2.8 vs 0.45 +/- 2.3 kg, respectively) and also experienced more treatment-emergent somnolence (21 patients [38.2%] vs 5 [8.3% ], respectively). CONCLUSION: Olanzapine demonstrated greater efficacy than placebo in the treatment of acute bipolar mania and was generally well tolerated.","[{'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 22, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'bipolar mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'Olanzipine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 93, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 173, 'end': 183, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'bipolar mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 222, 'end': 235, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 350, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'manic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 368, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 413, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'Mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 502, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'Extrapyramidal Symptom', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 774, 'end': 796, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'EPS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 798, 'end': 801, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'Olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 898, 'end': 908, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'Olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1269, 'end': 1279, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'EPSs', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1536, 'end': 1546, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1618, 'end': 1629, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'somnolence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1752, 'end': 1762, 'mesh': 'D006970'}, {'text': 'Olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1825, 'end': 1835, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'bipolar mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1905, 'end': 1918, 'mesh': 'D001714'}]" +1339,11026989,The effect of pupil dilation with tropicamide on vision and driving simulator performance.,"PURPOSE: To assess the effect of pupil dilation on vision and driving ability. METHODS: A series of tests on various parameters of visual function and driving simulator performance were performed on 12 healthy drivers, before and after pupil dilation using guttae tropicamide 1%. A driving simulator (Transport Research Laboratory) was used to measure reaction time (RT), speed maintenance and steering accuracy. Tests of basic visual function included high- and low-contrast visual acuity (HCVA and LCVA), Pelli-Robson contrast threshold (CT) and Goldmann perimetry (FIELDS). Useful Field of View (UFOV--a test of visual attention) was also undertaken. The mean differences in the pre- and post-dilatation measurements were tested for statistical significance at the 95% level using one-tail paired t-tests. RESULTS: Pupillary dilation resulted in a statistically significant deterioration in CT and HCVA only. Five of 12 drivers also exhibited deterioration in LCVA, CT and RT. Little evidence emerged for deterioration in FIELDS and UFOV. Also, 7 of 12 drivers appeared to adjust their driving behaviour by reducing their speed on the driving simulator, leading to improved steering accuracy. CONCLUSIONS: Pupillary dilation may lead to a decrease in vision and daylight driving performance in young people. A larger study, including a broader spectrum of subjects, is warranted before guidelines can be recommended.","[{'text': 'pupil dilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 14, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D015878'}, {'text': 'tropicamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D014331'}, {'text': 'pupil dilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 124, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D015878'}, {'text': 'pupil dilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 327, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D015878'}, {'text': 'tropicamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 355, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D014331'}, {'text': 'Pupillary dilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 909, 'end': 927, 'mesh': 'D015878'}, {'text': 'Pupillary dilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1300, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'D015878'}]" +1340,11105626,A case of isotretinoin embryopathy with bilateral anotia and Taussig-Bing malformation.,We report a newborn infant with multiple congenital anomalies (anotia and Taussig-Bing malformation) due to exposure to isotretinoin within the first trimester.

Half log incremental doses of intravenous methoxamine or placebo (saline) were administered to a group of women with genuine stress incontinence while measuring maximum urethral pressure (MUP), blood pressure, heart rate, and symptomatic side effects. Methoxamine evoked non-significant increases in MUP and diastolic blood pressure but caused a significant rise in systolic blood pressure and significant fall in heart rate at maximum dosage. Systemic side effects including piloerection, headache, and cold extremities were experienced in all subjects. The results indicate that the clinical usefulness of direct, peripherally acting sub-type-selective alpha1-adrenoceptor agonists in the medical treatment of stress incontinence may be limited by associated piloerection and cardiovascular side effects.","[{'text': 'methoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D008729'}, {'text': 'stress incontinence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D014550'}, {'text': 'urinary stress incontinence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 266, 'end': 293, 'mesh': 'D014550'}, {'text': 'methoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D008729'}, {'text': 'stress incontinence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D014550'}, {'text': 'Methoxamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 643, 'mesh': 'D008729'}, {'text': 'a significant rise in systolic blood pressure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 724, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 870, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'stress incontinence', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1111, 'mesh': 'D014550'}]" +1342,11176729,Toleration of high doses of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors in patients with chronic heart failure: results from the ATLAS trial. The Assessment of Treatment with Lisinopril and Survival.,"BACKGROUND: Treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduces mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), but most affected patients are not receiving these agents or are being treated with doses lower than those found to be efficacious in trials, primarily because of concerns about the safety and tolerability of these agents, especially at the recommended doses. The present study examines the safety and tolerability of high- compared with low-dose lisinopril in CHF. METHODS: The Assessment of Lisinopril and Survival study was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial in which patients with or without previous ACE inhibitor treatment were stabilized receiving medium-dose lisinopril (12.5 or 15.0 mg once daily [OD]) for 2 to 4 weeks and then randomized to high- (35.0 or 32.5 mg OD) or low-dose (5.0 or 2.5 mg OD) groups. Patients with New York Heart Association classes II to IV CHF and left ventricular ejection fractions of no greater than 0.30 (n = 3164) were randomized and followed up for a median of 46 months. We examined the occurrence of adverse events and the need for discontinuation and dose reduction during treatment, with a focus on hypotension and renal dysfunction. RESULTS: Of 405 patients not previously receiving an ACE inhibitor, doses in only 4.2% could not be titrated to the medium doses required for randomization because of symptoms possibly related to hypotension (2.0%) or because of renal dysfunction or hyperkalemia (2.3%). Doses in more than 90% of randomized patients in the high- and low-dose groups were titrated to their assigned target, and the mean doses of blinded medication in both groups remained similar throughout the study. Withdrawals occurred in 27.1% of the high- and 30.7% of the low-dose groups. Subgroups presumed to be at higher risk for ACE inhibitor intolerance (blood pressure, <120 mm Hg; creatinine, > or =132.6 micromol/L [> or =1.5 mg/dL]; age, > or =70 years; and patients with diabetes) generally tolerated the high-dose strategy. CONCLUSIONS: These findings demonstrate that ACE inhibitor therapy in most patients with CHF can be successfully titrated to and maintained at high doses, and that more aggressive use of these agents is warranted.","[{'text': 'angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D000806'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 94, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'Lisinopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 172, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D017706'}, {'text': 'angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D000806'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 328, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 343, 'end': 346, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'lisinopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 696, 'end': 706, 'mesh': 'D017706'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 710, 'end': 713, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'Lisinopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 742, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D017706'}, {'text': 'ACE inhibitor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 865, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D000806'}, {'text': 'lisinopril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 927, 'end': 937, 'mesh': 'D017706'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1136, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1421, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'ACE inhibitor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1493, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D000806'}, {'text': 'hypotension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1636, 'end': 1647, 'mesh': 'D007022'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1669, 'end': 1686, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hyperkalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1690, 'end': 1702, 'mesh': 'D006947'}, {'text': 'ACE inhibitor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2046, 'end': 2059, 'mesh': 'D000806'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2101, 'end': 2111, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2194, 'end': 2202, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'ACE inhibitor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2293, 'end': 2306, 'mesh': 'D000806'}, {'text': 'CHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2337, 'end': 2340, 'mesh': 'D006333'}]" +1343,11229942,"Cocaine, ethanol, and cocaethylene cardiotoxity in an animal model of cocaine and ethanol abuse.","OBJECTIVES: Simultaneous abuse of cocaine and ethanol affects 12 million Americans annually. In combination, these substances are substantially more toxic than either drug alone. Their combined cardiac toxicity may be due to independent effects of each drug; however, they may also be due to cocaethylene (CE), a cocaine metabolite formed only in the presence of ethanol. The purpose of this study was to delineate the role of CE in the combined cardiotoxicity of cocaine and ethanol in a model simulating their abuse. METHODS: Twenty-three dogs were randomized to receive either 1) three intravenous (IV) boluses of cocaine 7.5 mg/kg with ethanol (1 g/kg) as an IV infusion (C+E, n = 8), 2) three cocaine boluses only (C, n = 6), 3) ethanol infusion only (E, n = 5), or 4) placebo boluses and infusion (n = 4). Hemodynamic measurements, electrocardiograms, and serum drug concentrations were obtained at baseline, and then at fixed time intervals after each drug was administered. RESULTS: Two of eight dogs in the C+E group experienced cardiovascular collapse. The most dramatic hemodynamic changes occurred after each cocaine bolus in the C+E and C only groups; however, persistent hemodynamic changes occurred in the C+E group. Peak CE levels were associated with a 45% (SD +/- 22%, 95% CI = 22% to 69%) decrease in cardiac output (p < 0.05), a 56% (SD +/- 23%, 95% CI = 32% to 80%) decrease in dP/dt(max) (p <.006), and a 23% (SD +/- 15%, 95% CI = 7% to 49%) decrease in SVO(2) (p < 0.025). Ventricular arrhythmias were primarily observed in the C+E group, in which four of eight dogs experienced ventricular tachycardia. CONCLUSIONS: Cocaine and ethanol in combination were more toxic than either substance alone. Co-administration resulted in prolonged cardiac toxicity and was dysrhythmogenic. Peak serum cocaethylene concentrations were associated with prolonged myocardial depression.","[{'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 9, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'cocaethylene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 34, 'mesh': 'C066444'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 35, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 291, 'end': 307, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cocaethylene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 389, 'end': 401, 'mesh': 'C066444'}, {'text': 'CE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 403, 'end': 405, 'mesh': 'C066444'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 410, 'end': 417, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 460, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'CE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 524, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'C066444'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 543, 'end': 557, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 573, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 714, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 737, 'end': 744, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 795, 'end': 802, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 831, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular collapse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1135, 'end': 1158, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1218, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'CE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1336, 'mesh': 'C066444'}, {'text': 'decrease in cardiac output', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1431, 'mesh': 'D002303'}, {'text': 'Ventricular arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1593, 'end': 1616, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1699, 'end': 1722, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1744, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'ethanol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1756, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1857, 'end': 1873, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'cocaethylene', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1910, 'end': 1922, 'mesh': 'C066444'}, {'text': 'myocardial depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1969, 'end': 1990, 'mesh': 'D009202'}]" +1344,11299446,Worsening of Parkinsonism after the use of veralipride for treatment of menopause: case report.,"We describe a female patient with stable Parkinson's disease who has shown a marked worsening of her motor functions following therapy of menopause related symptoms with veralipride, as well as the improvement of her symptoms back to baseline after discontinuation of the drug.

The appearance of MPO-ANCA in these cases was suspected of being related to PTU because the titres of MPO-ANCA decreased when PTU was stopped. Nevertheless, there have been no studies on the temporal relationship between the appearance of MPO-ANCA and vasculitis during PTU therapy, or on the incidence of MPO-ANCA in untreated Graves' disease patients. Therefore, we sought to address these parameters in patients with Graves' disease. PATIENTS: We investigated 102 untreated patients with hyperthyroidism due to Graves' disease for the presence of MPO-ANCA, and for the development vasculitis after starting PTU therapy. Twenty-nine of them were later excluded because of adverse effects of PTU or because the observation period was less than 3 months. The remaining 73 patients (55 women and 18 men), all of whom were examined for more than 3 months, were adopted as the subjects of the investigation. The median observation period was 23.6 months (range: 3-37 months). MEASUREMENTS: MPO-ANCA was measured at intervals of 2-6 months. RESULTS: Before treatment, the MPO-ANCA titres of all 102 untreated Graves' disease patients were within the reference range (below 10 U/ml). Three (4.1%) of the 73 patients were positive for MPO-ANCA at 13, 16 and 17 months, respectively, after the start of PTU therapy. In two of them, the MPO-ANCA titres transiently increased to 12.8 and 15.0 U/ml, respectively, despite continued PTU therapy, but no vasculitic disorders developed. In the third patient, the MPO-ANCA titre increased to 204 U/ml and she developed a higher fever, oral ulcers and polyarthralgia, but the symptoms resolved 2 weeks after stopping PTU therapy, and the MPO-ANCA titre decreased to 20.7 U/ml by 4 months after discontinuing PTU. CONCLUSIONS: PTU therapy may be related to the appearance of MPO-ANCA, but MPO-ANCA does not appear to be closely related to vasculitis.","[{'text': ""Graves' disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 93, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D006111'}, {'text': 'propylthiouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 298, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': ""Graves' disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 344, 'end': 359, 'mesh': 'D006111'}, {'text': 'propylthiouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 382, 'end': 398, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 400, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 482, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 532, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 658, 'end': 668, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 676, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': ""Graves' disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 734, 'end': 749, 'mesh': 'D006111'}, {'text': ""Graves' disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 826, 'end': 841, 'mesh': 'D006111'}, {'text': 'hyperthyroidism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 897, 'end': 912, 'mesh': 'D006980'}, {'text': ""Graves' disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 920, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D006111'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 990, 'end': 1000, 'mesh': 'D014657'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1099, 'end': 1102, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': ""Graves' disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1511, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D006111'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1702, 'end': 1705, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1828, 'end': 1831, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'vasculitic disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1848, 'end': 1868, 'mesh': 'D014652'}, {'text': 'fever', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1970, 'end': 1975, 'mesh': 'D005334'}, {'text': 'oral ulcers', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1977, 'end': 1988, 'mesh': 'D019226'}, {'text': 'polyarthralgia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1993, 'end': 2007, 'mesh': 'D018771'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2058, 'end': 2061, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2149, 'end': 2152, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'PTU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2167, 'end': 2170, 'mesh': 'D011441'}, {'text': 'vasculitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2279, 'end': 2289, 'mesh': 'D014657'}]" +1347,11385188,Prevalence of heart disease in asymptomatic chronic cocaine users.,"To determine the prevalence of heart disease in outpatient young asymptomatic chronic cocaine users, 35 cocaine users and 32 age-matched controls underwent resting and exercise electrocardiography (ECG) and Doppler echocardiography.

The contribution of transmural dispersion of repolarization (TDR) to transmural propagation of EAD and the maintenance of TdP was also evaluated. METHODS AND RESULTS: Transmembrane action potentials from epicardium, midmyocardium, and endocardium were recorded simultaneously, together with a transmural ECG, in arterially perfused canine and rabbit left ventricular preparations. dl-Sotalol preferentially prolonged action potential duration (APD) in M cells dose-dependently (1 to 100 micromol/L), leading to QT prolongation and an increase in TDR. Azimilide, however, significantly prolonged APD and QT interval at concentrations from 0.1 to 10 micromol/L but shortened them at 30 micromol/L. Unlike dl-sotalol, azimilide (>3 micromol/L) increased epicardial APD markedly, causing a diminished TDR. Although both dl-sotalol and azimilide rarely induced EADs in canine left ventricles, they produced frequent EADs in rabbits, in which more pronounced QT prolongation was seen. An increase in TDR by dl-sotalol facilitated transmural propagation of EADs that initiated multiple episodes of spontaneous TdP in 3 of 6 rabbit left ventricles. Of note, although azimilide (3 to 10 micromol/L) increased APD more than dl-sotalol, its EADs often failed to propagate transmurally, probably because of a diminished TDR. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides the first direct evidence from intracellular action potential recordings that phase 2 EAD can be generated from intact ventricular wall and produce a trigger to initiate the onset of TdP under QT prolongation.","[{'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 62, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'long-QT syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 98, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'torsade de pointes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 319, 'end': 337, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 349, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 379, 'end': 386, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'azimilide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 391, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'C086123'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 524, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'Sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 786, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 913, 'end': 928, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'Azimilide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'C086123'}, {'text': 'sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1108, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'azimilide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'C086123'}, {'text': 'sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1228, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'azimilide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'C086123'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1370, 'mesh': 'D008133'}, {'text': 'sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1406, 'end': 1413, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1505, 'end': 1508, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'azimilide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1561, 'end': 1570, 'mesh': 'C086123'}, {'text': 'sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1619, 'end': 1626, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'TdP', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1931, 'end': 1934, 'mesh': 'D016171'}, {'text': 'QT prolongation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1941, 'end': 1956, 'mesh': 'D008133'}]" +1350,11425091,Prenatal cocaine exposure and cranial sonographic findings in preterm infants.,PURPOSE: Prenatal cocaine exposure has been linked with subependymal hemorrhage and the formation of cysts that are detectable on cranial sonography in neonates born at term. We sought to determine if prenatal cocaine exposure increases the incidence of subependymal cysts in preterm infants. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records and cranial sonograms obtained during a 1-year period on 122 premature (< 36 weeks of gestation) infants. Infants were categorized into 1 of 2 groups: those exposed to cocaine and those not exposed to cocaine. Infants were assigned to the cocaine-exposed group if there was a maternal history of cocaine abuse during pregnancy or if maternal or neonatal urine toxicology results were positive at the time of delivery. RESULTS: Five of the 122 infants were excluded from the study because of insufficient medical and drug histories. The incidence of subependymal cysts in the 117 remaining infants was 14% (16 of 117). The incidence of subependymal cysts in infants exposed to cocaine prenatally was 44% (8 of 18) compared with 8% (8 of 99) in the unexposed group (p < 0.01).

NCS included recording of sensory nerve action potentials (SNAPs) from median, radial, ulnar, and sural nerves. SNAP amplitudes for each nerve were expressed as the percentage of its baseline, and the mean of the four was termed the SNAP index. A 40% decline in the SNAP index was considered clinically significant. Thalidomide was discontinued in 55 patients for lack of therapeutic response. Of 67 patients initially enrolled, 24 remained on thalidomide for 3 months, 8 remained at 6 months, and 3 remained at 9 months. Six patients developed neuropathy. Clinical symptoms and a decline in the SNAP index occurred concurrently. Older age and cumulative dose were possible contributing factors.

We therefore hypothesized that overexpression of Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (h-SOD1) should protect transgenic mice from ototoxicity. Immunocytochemistry confirmed expression of h-SOD1 in inner ear tissues of transgenic C57BL/6-TgN[SOD1]3Cje mice. Transgenic and nontransgenic littermates received kanamycin (400 mg/kg body weight/day) for 10 days beginning on day 10 after birth. Auditory thresholds were tested by evoked auditory brain stem responses at 1 month after birth. In nontransgenic animals, the threshold in the kanamycin-treated group was 45-50 dB higher than in saline-injected controls. In the transgenic group, kanamycin increased the threshold by only 15 dB over the respective controls. The effects were similar at 12 and 24 kHz. The protection by overexpression of superoxide dismutase supports the hypothesis that oxidant stress plays a significant role in aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity.

METHODS: Male Wistar rats were studied and 3 groups were formed (8 rats per group). The moderate-dose group received 5 mg/kg/day PDN released from a subcutaneous implant. In the high-dose group, implants containing PDN equivalent to 60 mg/kg/day were applied. In the control group implants contained no PDN. Anxiety was assessed using an open field and elevated plus-maze devices. The number of cells and cytoplasmic transformation of astrocytes and microglia cells were assessed by immunohistochemical analyses. RESULTS: Anxiety was documented in both groups of PDN treated rats compared with controls. The magnitude of transformation of the microglia assessed by the number of intersections was significantly higher in the PDN groups than in controls in the prefrontal cortex (moderate-dose, 24.1; high-dose, 23.6; controls 18.7; p < 0.01) and striatum (moderate-dose 25.6; high-dose 26.3; controls 18.9; p < 0.01), but not in hippocampus. The number of stained microglia cells was significantly higher in the PDN treated groups in the prefrontal cortex than in controls (moderate-dose, 29.1; high-dose, 28.4; control, 17.7 cells per field; p < 0.01). Stained microglia cells were significantly more numerous striatum and hippocampus in the high-dose group compared to controls. CONCLUSION: Subacute exposure to PDN induced anxiety and reactivity of microglia. The relevance of these features for patients using PDN remains to be elucidated.","[{'text': 'Prednisone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 26, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'prednisone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 104, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 294, 'end': 297, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 380, 'end': 383, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 468, 'end': 471, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'Anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 473, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'Anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 687, 'end': 694, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 728, 'end': 731, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 890, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1177, 'end': 1180, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1479, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'D011241'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1491, 'end': 1498, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'PDN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1582, 'mesh': 'D011241'}]" +1354,11745287,Phase II study of carboplatin and liposomal doxorubicin in patients with recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix.,"BACKGROUND: The activity of the combination of carboplatin and liposomal doxorubicin was tested in a Phase II study of patients with recurrent cervical carcinoma. METHODS: The combination of carboplatin (area under the concentration curve [AUC], 5) and liposomal doxorubicin (Doxil; starting dose, 40 mg/m(2)) was administered intravenously every 28 days to 37 patients with recurrent squamous cell cervical carcinoma to determine antitumor activity and toxicity profile. RESULTS: Twenty-nine patients were assessable for response, and 35 patients were assessable for toxicity. The overall response rate was 38%, the median time to response was 10 weeks, the median duration of response was 26 weeks, and the median survival was 37 weeks. The main toxic effect was myelosuppression, with Grade 3 and 4 neutropenia in 16 patients, anemia in 12 patients, thrombocytopenia in 11 patients, and neutropenic fever in 3 patients. Four patients had five infusion-related reactions during the infusion of liposomal doxorubicin, leading to treatment discontinuation in three patients. Grade > or = 2 nonhematologic toxicity included nausea in 17 patients, emesis in 14 patients, fatigue in 9 patients, mucositis and/or stomatitis in 8 patients, constipation in 6 patients, weight loss in 5 patients, hand-foot syndrome in 2 patients, and skin reactions in 3 patients. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of carboplatin and liposomal doxorubicin has modest activity in patients with recurrent cervical carcinoma.","[{'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 18, 'end': 29, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 169, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 195, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cervical carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D002583'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 313, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 385, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Doxil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 576, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 690, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'myelosuppression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 887, 'end': 903, 'mesh': 'D001855'}, {'text': 'neutropenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D009503'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 952, 'end': 958, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 975, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1128, 'end': 1139, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1227, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'nausea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1245, 'end': 1251, 'mesh': 'D009325'}, {'text': 'emesis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1274, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'fatigue', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1291, 'end': 1298, 'mesh': 'D005221'}, {'text': 'mucositis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1314, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D052016'}, {'text': 'stomatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1331, 'end': 1341, 'mesh': 'D013280'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1357, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'weight loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1385, 'end': 1396, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'hand-foot syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1412, 'end': 1430, 'mesh': 'D060831'}, {'text': 'skin reactions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'D012871'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1523, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1538, 'end': 1549, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cervical carcinoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1597, 'end': 1615, 'mesh': 'D002583'}]" +1355,11799346,Antimicrobial-induced mania (antibiomania): a review of spontaneous reports.,"The authors reviewed reported cases of antibiotic-induced manic episodes by means of a MEDLINE and PsychLit search for reports of antibiotic-induced mania. Unpublished reports were requested from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Twenty-one reports of antimicrobial-induced mania were found in the literature. There were 6 cases implicating clarithromycin, 13 implicating isoniazid, and 1 case each implicating erythromycin and amoxicillin. The WHO reported 82 cases. Of these, clarithromycin was implicated in 23 (27.6%) cases, ciprofloxacin in 12 (14.4%) cases, and ofloxacin in 10 (12%) cases. Cotrimoxazole, metronidazole, and erythromycin were involved in 15 reported manic episodes. Cases reported by the FDA showed clarithromycin and ciprofloxacin to be the most frequently associated with the development of mania. Statistical analysis of the data would not have demonstrated a significant statistical correlative risk and was therefore not undertaken. Patients have an increased risk of developing mania while being treated with antimicrobials. Although this is not a statistically significant risk, physicians must be aware of the effect and reversibility. Further research clearly is required to determine the incidence of antimicrobial-induced mania, the relative risk factors of developing an antimicrobial-induced manic episode among various demographic populations, and the incidence of patients who continue to have persistent affective disorders once the initial episode, which occurs while the patient is taking antibiotics, subsides.

However, in vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated that myometrial cells are also targets of the relaxant effects of nitric oxide (NO). The aim of the present study was to determine the efficacy of glyceryl trinitrate (GTN), an NO donor, in the resolution of primary dysmenorrhea in comparison with diclofenac (DCF). A total of 24 patients with the diagnosis of severe primary dysmenorrhea were studied during two consecutive menstrual cycles. In an open, cross-over, controlled design, patients were randomized to receive either DCF per os or GTN patches the first days of menses, when menstrual cramps became unendurable. In the subsequent cycle the other treatment was used. Patients received up to 3 doses/day of 50 mg DCF or 2.5 mg/24 h transdermal GTN for the first 3 days of the cycle, according to their needs. The participants recorded menstrual symptoms and possible side-effects at different times (0, 30, 60, 120 minutes) after the first dose of medication on the first day of the cycle, with both drugs. The difference in pain intensity score (DPI) was the main outcome variable. Both treatments significantly reduced DPI by the 30th minute (GTN, -12.8 +/- 17.9; DCF, -18.9 +/- 16.6). However, DCF continued to be effective in reducing pelvic pain for two hours, whereas GTN scores remained more or less stable after 30 min and significantly higher than those for DFC (after one hour: GTN, -12.8 +/- 17.9; DFC, -18.9 +/- 16.6 and after two hours: GTN, -23.7 +/- 20.5; DFC, -59.7 +/- 17.9, p = 0.0001). Low back pain was also relieved by both drugs. Headache was significantly increased by GTN but not by DCF. Eight patients stopped using GTN because headache--attributed to its use--became intolerable. These findings indicate that GTN has a reduced efficacy and tolerability by comparison with DCF in the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea.","[{'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 16, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'diclofenac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 51, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'dysmenorrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 81, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D004412'}, {'text': 'dysmenorrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 142, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D004412'}, {'text': 'prostaglandins', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 258, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D011453'}, {'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 486, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 488, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'glyceryl trinitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 555, 'end': 574, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 579, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'dysmenorrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 624, 'end': 636, 'mesh': 'D004412'}, {'text': 'diclofenac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 656, 'end': 666, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'DCF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 668, 'end': 671, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'dysmenorrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 734, 'end': 746, 'mesh': 'D004412'}, {'text': 'DCF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 887, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 901, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'DCF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1080, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1114, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1392, 'end': 1396, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1512, 'end': 1515, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'DCF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1533, 'end': 1536, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'DCF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1564, 'end': 1567, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'pelvic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1606, 'end': 1617, 'mesh': 'D017699'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1641, 'end': 1644, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1755, 'end': 1758, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1817, 'end': 1820, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'Low back pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1872, 'end': 1885, 'mesh': 'D017116'}, {'text': 'Headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1919, 'end': 1927, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1959, 'end': 1962, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'DCF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1974, 'end': 1977, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2008, 'end': 2011, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'headache', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2020, 'end': 2028, 'mesh': 'D006261'}, {'text': 'GTN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2102, 'end': 2105, 'mesh': 'D005996'}, {'text': 'DCF', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2165, 'end': 2168, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'dysmenorrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2197, 'end': 2209, 'mesh': 'D004412'}]" +1358,11936424,"Temocapril, a long-acting non-SH group angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, modulates glomerular injury in chronic puromycin aminonucleoside nephrosis.","The purpose of the present study was to determine whether chronic administration of temocapril, a long-acting non-SH group angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, reduced proteinuria, inhibited glomerular hypertrophy and prevented glomerulosclerosis in chronic puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) - induced nephrotic rats. Nephrosis was induced by injection of PAN (15mg/100g body weight) in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Four groups were used, i) the PAN group (14), ii) PAN/temocapril (13), iii) temocapril (14) and iv) untreated controls (15). Temocapril (8 mg/kg/day) was administered to the rats which were killed at weeks 4, 14 or 20. At each time point, systolic blood pressure (BP), urinary protein excretion and renal histopathological findings were evaluated, and morphometric image analysis was done. Systolic BP in the PAN group was significantly high at 4, 14 and 20 weeks, but was normal in the PAN/temocapril group. Urinary protein excretion in the PAN group increased significantly, peaking at 8 days, then decreased at 4 weeks, but rose again significantly at 14 and 20 weeks. Temocapril did not attenuate proteinuria at 8 days, but it did markedly lower it from weeks 4 to 20.

It appears that temocapril was effective in retarding renal progression and protected renal function in PAN neprotic rats.","[{'text': 'Temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'glomerular injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 144, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 145, 'end': 154, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 240, 'end': 250, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 279, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D000809'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 334, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 368, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 394, 'end': 412, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'puromycin aminonucleoside', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 424, 'end': 449, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 451, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'nephrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 466, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D009404'}, {'text': 'Nephrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 482, 'end': 491, 'mesh': 'D009401'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 520, 'end': 523, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 615, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 632, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 658, 'end': 668, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'Temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 707, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 991, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1069, 'end': 1072, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1073, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1127, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'Temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1254, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1283, 'end': 1294, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1359, 'end': 1377, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1475, 'end': 1478, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1671, 'end': 1674, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1748, 'end': 1751, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1752, 'end': 1762, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'temocapril', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1786, 'end': 1796, 'mesh': 'C055603'}, {'text': 'PAN', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1874, 'end': 1877, 'mesh': 'D011692'}, {'text': 'neprotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1878, 'end': 1886, 'mesh': 'D009401'}]" +1359,11988250,Pulmonary hypertension after ibuprofen prophylaxis in very preterm infants.,We report three cases of severe hypoxaemia after ibuprofen administration during a randomised controlled trial of prophylactic treatment of patent ductus arteriosus with ibuprofen in premature infants born at less than 28 weeks of gestation.

METHOD: We searched the Eli Lilly and Company's computerized adverse event database for all reported cases of hyponatremia and/or SIADH as of 1 November 1999 that had been reported during the use of vincristine. RESULTS: A total of 76 cases of hyponatremia and/or SIADH associated with vincristine use were identified. The overall reporting rate was estimated to be 1.3/100,000 treated patients. The average age of patients was 35.6 +/- 28.3 years, and 62% were males. Approximately 75% of the patients were receiving treatment for leukemia or lymphoma. Among the 39 reports that included information on race, the racial distribution was: 1 Black, 3 Caucasian, and 35 Asian. CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that Asian patients may be at increased risk of hyponatremia and/or SIADH associated with vincristine use. Although the overall reported rate of SIADH associated with vincristine is very low, physicians caring for Asian oncology patients should be aware of this potential serious but reversible adverse event.","[{'text': 'Hyponatremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D007010'}, {'text': 'syndrome of inappropriate anti-diuretic hormone', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 17, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'Vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 90, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'hyponatremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 261, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D007010'}, {'text': 'syndrome of inappropriate secretion of anti-diuretic hormone', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 281, 'end': 341, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 343, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 356, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'hyponatremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 559, 'end': 571, 'mesh': 'D007010'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 579, 'end': 584, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 648, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'hyponatremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 693, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D007010'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 713, 'end': 718, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 746, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'leukemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 981, 'end': 989, 'mesh': 'D007938'}, {'text': 'lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 993, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D008223'}, {'text': 'hyponatremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D007010'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1243, 'end': 1254, 'mesh': 'D014750'}, {'text': 'SIADH', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1303, 'mesh': 'D007177'}, {'text': 'vincristine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1320, 'end': 1331, 'mesh': 'D014750'}]" +1361,12059909,Delayed toxicity of cyclophosphamide on the bladder of DBA/2 and C57BL/6 female mouse.,"The present study describes the delayed development of a severe bladder pathology in a susceptible strain of mice (DBA/2) but not in a resistant strain (C57BL/6) when both were treated with a single 300 mg/kg dose of cyclophosphamide (CY). Inbred DBA/2 and C57BL/6 female mice were injected with CY, and the effect of the drug on the bladder was assessed during 100 days by light microscopy using different staining procedures, and after 30 days by conventional electron microscopy. Early CY toxicity caused a typical haemorrhagic cystitis in both strains that was completely repaired in about 7-10 days. After 30 days of CY injection ulcerous and non-ulcerous forms of chronic cystitis appeared in 86% of DBA/2 mice but only in 4% of C57BL/6 mice. Delayed cystitis was characterized by infiltration and transepithelial passage into the lumen of inflammatory cells and by frequent exfoliation of the urothelium. Mast cells appeared in the connective and muscular layers of the bladder at a much higher number in DBA/2 mice than in C57BL/6 mice or untreated controls. Electron microscopy disclosed the absence of the typical discoidal vesicles normally present in the cytoplasm of surface cells. Instead, numerous abnormal vesicles containing one or several dark granules were observed in the cytoplasm of cells from all the epithelial layers. Delayed cystitis still persisted in DBA/2 mice 100 days after treatment. These results indicate that delayed toxicity of CY in female DBA/2 mice causes a bladder pathology that is not observed in C57BL/6 mice. This pathology resembles interstitial cystitis in humans and could perhaps be used as an animal model for studies on the disease.","[{'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 8, 'end': 16, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 20, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 304, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 322, 'end': 324, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 383, 'end': 385, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 579, 'end': 587, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'haemorrhagic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 605, 'end': 617, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 618, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 709, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 765, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 844, 'end': 852, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1438, 'end': 1446, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1539, 'end': 1547, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CY', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1553, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'interstitial cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1686, 'mesh': 'D018856'}]" +1362,12119460,High-dose 5-fluorouracil / folinic acid in combination with three-weekly mitomycin C in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer. A phase II study.,"BACKGROUND: The 24-hour continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and folinic acid (FA) as part of several new multidrug chemotherapy regimens in advanced gastric cancer (AGC) has shown to be effective, with low toxicity. In a previous phase II study with 3-weekly bolus 5-FU, FA and mitomycin C (MMC) we found a low toxicity rate and response rates comparable to those of regimens such as ELF, FAM or FAMTX, and a promising median overall survival. In order to improve this MMC-dependent schedule we initiated a phase II study with high-dose 5-FU/FA and 3-weekly bolus MMC. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From February, 1998 to September, 2000 we recruited 33 patients with AGC to receive weekly 24-hour 5-FU 2,600 mg/m(2) preceded by 2-hour FA 500 mg/m(2) for 6 weeks, followed by a 2-week rest period. Bolus MMC 10 mg/m(2) was added in 3-weekly intervals. Treatment given on an outpatient basis, using portable pump systems, was repeated on day 57. Patients' characteristics were: male/female ratio 20/13; median age 57 (27-75) years; median WHO status 1 (0-2). 18 patients had a primary AGC, and 15 showed a relapsed AGC. Median follow-up was 11.8 months (range of those surviving: 2.7-11.8 months). RESULTS: 32 patients were evaluable for response - complete remission 9.1% (n = 3), partial remission 45.5% (n = 15), no change 27.3% (n = 9), progressive disease 15.1% (n = 5). Median overall survival time was 10.2 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 8.7-11.6], and median progression-free survival time was 7.6 months (95% CI: 4.4-10.9). The worst toxicities (%) observed were (CTC-NCI 1/2/3): leukopenia 45.5/18.2/6.1, thrombocytopenia 33.3/9.1/6.1, vomitus 24.2/9.1/0, diarrhea 36.4/6.1/3.0, stomatitis 18.2/9.1/0, hand-foot syndrome 12.1/0/0. Two patients developed hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS). CONCLUSIONS: High-dose 5-FU/FA/MMC is an effective and well-tolerated outpatient regimen for AGC (objective response rate 54.6%). It may serve as an alternative to cisplatin-containing regimens; however, it has to be considered that possibly HUS may occur.","[{'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 10, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'mitomycin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 84, 'mesh': 'D016685'}, {'text': 'gastric cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 114, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 195, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'folinic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 221, 'end': 233, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'FA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 235, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'gastric cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 306, 'end': 320, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'AGC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 322, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 363, 'end': 371, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'FA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 428, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'mitomycin C', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 435, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D016685'}, {'text': 'MMC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 451, 'mesh': 'D016685'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 468, 'end': 476, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'MMC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 626, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D016685'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 694, 'end': 698, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'FA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 699, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'MMC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 721, 'end': 724, 'mesh': 'D016685'}, {'text': 'AGC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 817, 'end': 820, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 847, 'end': 851, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'FA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 885, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'MMC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 956, 'mesh': 'D016685'}, {'text': 'AGC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1236, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'AGC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1263, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1698, 'end': 1708, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'leukopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1744, 'end': 1754, 'mesh': 'D007970'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1770, 'end': 1786, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'vomitus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1801, 'end': 1808, 'mesh': 'D014839'}, {'text': 'diarrhea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1821, 'end': 1829, 'mesh': 'D003967'}, {'text': 'stomatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1844, 'end': 1854, 'mesh': 'D013280'}, {'text': 'hand-foot syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1867, 'end': 1885, 'mesh': 'D060831'}, {'text': 'hemolytic-uremic syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1919, 'end': 1944, 'mesh': 'D006463'}, {'text': 'HUS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1946, 'end': 1949, 'mesh': 'D006463'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1975, 'end': 1979, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'FA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1980, 'end': 1982, 'mesh': 'D002955'}, {'text': 'MMC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1983, 'end': 1986, 'mesh': 'D016685'}, {'text': 'AGC', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2045, 'end': 2048, 'mesh': 'D013274'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2116, 'end': 2125, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'HUS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2194, 'end': 2197, 'mesh': 'D006463'}]" +1363,12165618,Persistent sterile leukocyturia is associated with impaired renal function in human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected children treated with indinavir.,"BACKGROUND: Prolonged administration of indinavir is associated with the occurrence of a variety of renal complications in adults. These well-documented side effects have restricted the use of this potent protease inhibitor in children. DESIGN: A prospective study to monitor indinavir-related nephrotoxicity in a cohort of 30 human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected children treated with indinavir. METHODS: Urinary pH, albumin, creatinine, the presence of erythrocytes, leukocytes, bacteria and crystals, and culture were analyzed every 3 months for 96 weeks. Serum creatinine levels were routinely determined at the same time points. Steady-state pharmacokinetics of indinavir were done at week 4 after the initiation of indinavir. RESULTS: The cumulative incidence of persistent sterile leukocyturia (> or =75 cells/ micro L in at least 2 consecutive visits) after 96 weeks was 53%. Persistent sterile leukocyturia was frequently associated with a mild increase in the urine albumin/creatinine ratio and by microscopic hematuria. The cumulative incidence of serum creatinine levels >50% above normal was 33% after 96 weeks. Children with persistent sterile leukocyturia more frequently had serum creatinine levels of 50% above normal than those children without persistent sterile leukocyturia. In children younger than 5.6 years, persistent sterile leukocyturia was significantly more frequent than in older children. A higher cumulative incidence of persistent leukocyturia was found in children with an area under the curve >19 mg/L x h or a peak serum level of indinavir >12 mg/L. In 4 children, indinavir was discontinued because of nephrotoxicity. Subsequently, the serum creatinine levels decreased, the urine albumin/creatinine ratios returned to zero, and the leukocyturia disappeared within 3 months. CONCLUSIONS: Children treated with indinavir have a high cumulative incidence of persistent sterile leukocyturia.

Troponin sampling may offer greater diagnostic utility in these patients. OBJECTIVE: To assess outcomes based on troponin positivity in patients with cocaine chest pain admitted for exclusion of MI. METHODS: Outcomes were examined in patients admitted for possible MI after cocaine use. All patients underwent a rapid rule-in protocol that included serial sampling of creatine kinase (CK), CK-MB, and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) over eight hours. Outcomes included CK-MB MI (CK-MB >or= 8 ng/mL with a relative index [(CK-MB x 100)/total CK] >or= 4, cardiac death, and significant coronary disease (>or=50%). RESULTS: Of the 246 admitted patients, 34 (14%) met CK-MB criteria for MI and 38 (16%) had cTnI elevations. Angiography was performed in 29 of 38 patients who were cTnI-positive, with significant disease present in 25 (86%). Three of the four patients without significant disease who had cTnI elevations met CK-MB criteria for MI, and the other had a peak CK-MB level of 13 ng/mL. Sensitivities, specificities, and positive and negative likelihood ratios for predicting cardiac death or significant disease were high for both CK-MB MI and cTnI and were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS: Most patients with cTnI elevations meet CK-MB criteria for MI, as well as have a high incidence of underlying significant disease. Troponin appears to have an equivalent diagnostic accuracy compared with CK-MB for diagnosing necrosis in patients with cocaine-associated chest pain and suspected MI.","[{'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 58, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'myocardial necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 153, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 200, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 223, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 254, 'end': 261, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 273, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 435, 'end': 442, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 443, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 550, 'end': 552, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 559, 'end': 566, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 653, 'end': 661, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 754, 'end': 756, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cardiac death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 832, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'coronary disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 863, 'end': 879, 'mesh': 'D003327'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 962, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1218, 'end': 1220, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cardiac death', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1361, 'end': 1374, 'mesh': 'D003643'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1425, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1545, 'end': 1547, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1711, 'end': 1719, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1737, 'end': 1744, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1756, 'end': 1766, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1781, 'end': 1783, 'mesh': 'D009203'}]" +1365,12372954,Acute interstitial nephritis due to nicergoline (Sermion).,"We report a case of acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) due to nicergoline (Sermion).

Recent evidence indicates that oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are key factors in the pathogenic process. The objective of this investigation was to test the hypothesis that carvedilol, a nonselective beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist with potent antioxidant properties, protects against the cardiac and hepatic mitochondrial bioenergetic dysfunction associated with subchronic doxorubicin toxicity. Heart and liver mitochondria were isolated from rats treated for 7 weeks with doxorubicin (2 mg/kg sc/week), carvedilol (1 mg/kg ip/week), or the combination of the two drugs. Heart mitochondria isolated from doxorubicin-treated rats exhibited depressed rates for state 3 respiration (336 +/- 26 versus 425 +/- 53 natom O/min/mg protein) and a lower respiratory control ratio (RCR) (4.3 +/- 0.6 versus 5.8 +/- 0.4) compared with cardiac mitochondria isolated from saline-treated rats. Mitochondrial calcium-loading capacity and the activity of NADH-dehydrogenase were also suppressed in cardiac mitochondria from doxorubicin-treated rats. Doxorubicin treatment also caused a decrease in RCR for liver mitochondria (3.9 +/- 0.9 versus 5.6 +/- 0.7 for control rats) and inhibition of hepatic cytochrome oxidase activity. Coadministration of carvedilol decreased the extent of cellular vacuolization in cardiac myocytes and prevented the inhibitory effect of doxorubicin on mitochondrial respiration in both heart and liver. Carvedilol also prevented the decrease in mitochondrial Ca(2+) loading capacity and the inhibition of the respiratory complexes of heart mitochondria caused by doxorubicin. Carvedilol by itself did not affect any of the parameters measured for heart or liver mitochondria. It is concluded that this protection by carvedilol against both the structural and functional cardiac tissue damage may afford significant clinical advantage in minimizing the dose-limiting mitochondrial dysfunction and cardiomyopathy that accompanies long-term doxorubicin therapy in cancer patients.","[{'text': 'Carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 62, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 199, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 210, 'end': 221, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 275, 'end': 300, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 412, 'end': 422, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 618, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 630, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 718, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 749, 'end': 759, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 849, 'end': 860, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1139, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1253, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1279, 'end': 1290, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1479, 'end': 1489, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1596, 'end': 1607, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1662, 'end': 1672, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'Ca', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1718, 'end': 1720, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1822, 'end': 1833, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'Carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1835, 'end': 1845, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1975, 'end': 1985, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2125, 'end': 2150, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2155, 'end': 2169, 'mesh': 'D009202'}, {'text': 'doxorubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2197, 'end': 2208, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2220, 'end': 2226, 'mesh': 'D009369'}]" +1369,12523489,Cocaine-induced hyperactivity is more influenced by adenosine receptor agonists than amphetamine-induced hyperactivity.,"The influence of adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists on cocaine-and amphetamine-induced hyperactivity was examined in mice. All adenosine receptor agonists significantly decreased the locomotor activity in mice, and the effects were dose-dependent. It seems that adenosine A1 and A2 receptors might be involved in this reaction. Moreover, all adenosine receptor agonists: 2-p-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino-5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (CGS 21680), A2A receptor agonist, N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA), A1 receptor agonist, and 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA), A2/A1 receptor agonist significantly and dose-dependently decreased cocaine-induced locomotor activity. CPA reduced cocaine action at the doses which, given alone, did not influence motility, while CGS 21680 and NECA decreased the action of cocaine at the doses which, given alone, decreased locomotor activity in animals. These results suggest the involvement of both adenosine receptors in the action of cocaine although agonists of A1 receptors seem to have stronger influence on it. The selective blockade of A2 adenosine receptor by DMPX (3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine) significantly enhanced cocaine-induced locomotor activity of animals. Caffeine had similar action but the effect was not significant. CPT (8-cyclopentyltheophylline)--A1 receptor antagonist, did not show any influence in this test. Similarly, all adenosine receptor agonists decreased amphetamine-induced hyperactivity, but at the higher doses than those which were active in cocaine-induced hyperactivity. The selective blockade of A2 adenosine receptors (DMPX) and non-selective blockade of adenosine receptors (caffeine) significantly increased the action of amphetamine in the locomotor activity test. Our results have shown that all adenosine receptor agonists (A1 and A2) reduce cocaine- and amphetamine-induced locomotor activity and indicate that cocaine-induced hyperactivity is more influenced by adenosine receptor agonists (particularly A1 receptors) than amphetamine-induced hyperactivity.","[{'text': 'Cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text':

of bradyarrhythmia requiring permanent pacemaker in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation and prior myocardial infarction.,"OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine whether the use of amiodarone in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of bradyarrhythmia requiring a permanent pacemaker. BACKGROUND: Reports of severe bradyarrhythmia during amiodarone therapy are infrequent and limited to studies assessing the therapy's use in the management of patients with ventricular arrhythmias. METHODS: A study cohort of 8,770 patients age > or =65 years with a new diagnosis of AF was identified from a provincewide database of Quebec residents with a myocardial infarction (MI) between 1991 and 1999. Using a nested case-control design, 477 cases of bradyarrhythmia requiring a permanent pacemaker were matched (1:4) to 1,908 controls. Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) of pacemaker insertion associated with amiodarone use, controlling for baseline risk factors and exposure to sotalol, Class I antiarrhythmic agents, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and digoxin. RESULTS: amiodarone use was associated with an increased risk of pacemaker insertion (OR: 2.14, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.30 to 3.54). This effect was modified by gender, with a greater risk in women versus men (OR: 3.86, 95% CI: 1.70 to 8.75 vs. OR: 1.52, 95% CI: 0.80 to 2.89). Digoxin was the only other medication associated with an increased risk of pacemaker insertion (OR: 1.78, 95% CI: 1.37 to 2.31). CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that the use of amiodarone in elderly patients with AF and a previous MI increases the risk of bradyarrhythmia requiring a permanent pacemaker. The finding of an augmented risk of pacemaker insertion in elderly women receiving amiodarone requires further investigation.","[{'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'bradyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 27, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 98, 'end': 117, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 128, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 221, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 249, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 270, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'bradyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 296, 'end': 311, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'bradyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 375, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'ventricular arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 518, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 628, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 702, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 725, 'end': 727, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'bradyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 801, 'end': 816, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1001, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'sotalol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D013015'}, {'text': 'calcium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1126, 'end': 1133, 'mesh': 'D002118'}, {'text': 'digoxin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1156, 'end': 1163, 'mesh': 'D004077'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1174, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'Digoxin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1451, 'end': 1458, 'mesh': 'D004077'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1629, 'end': 1639, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'AF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1667, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'MI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1683, 'end': 1685, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'bradyarrhythmia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1723, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1840, 'end': 1850, 'mesh': 'D000638'}]" +1371,12559315,Indomethacin-induced morphologic changes in the rat urinary bladder epithelium.,"OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the morphologic changes in rat urothelium induced by indomethacin. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced cystitis is a poorly recognized and under-reported condition. In addition to tiaprofenic acid, indomethacin has been reported to be associated with this condition. METHODS: Three groups were established: a control group (n = 10), a high-dose group (n = 10), treated with one intraperitoneal injection of indomethacin 20 mg/kg, and a therapeutic dose group (n = 10) in which oral indomethacin was administered 3.25 mg/kg body weight daily for 3 weeks. The animals were then killed and the bladders removed for light and electron microscopic studies. RESULTS: The light microscopic findings showed some focal epithelial degeneration that was more prominent in the high-dose group. When compared with the control group, both indomethacin groups revealed statistically increased numbers of mast cells in the mucosa (P <0.0001) and penetration of lanthanum nitrate through intercellular areas of the epithelium. Furthermore, the difference in mast cell counts between the high and therapeutic dose groups was also statistically significant (P <0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Indomethacin resulted in histopathologic findings typical of interstitial cystitis, such as leaky bladder epithelium and mucosal mastocytosis. The true incidence of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced cystitis in humans must be clarified by prospective clinical trials.","[{'text': 'Indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 12, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 157, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 215, 'end': 223, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'tiaprofenic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 292, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'C021270'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 310, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 519, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 594, 'end': 606, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 937, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'lanthanum nitrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1057, 'end': 1074, 'mesh': 'C016534'}, {'text': 'Indomethacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1276, 'end': 1288, 'mesh': 'D007213'}, {'text': 'interstitial cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1337, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D018856'}, {'text': 'mastocytosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1405, 'end': 1417, 'mesh': 'D008415'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1485, 'end': 1493, 'mesh': 'D003556'}]" +1372,12644816,An open-label phase II study of low-dose thalidomide in androgen-independent prostate cancer.,"The antiangiogenic effects of thalidomide have been assessed in clinical trials in patients with various solid and haematological malignancies. Thalidomide blocks the activity of angiogenic agents including bFGF, VEGF and IL-6. We undertook an open-label study using thalidomide 100 mg once daily for up to 6 months in 20 men with androgen-independent prostate cancer. The mean time of study was 109 days (median 107, range 4-184 days). Patients underwent regular measurement of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), urea and electrolytes, serum bFGF and VEGF. Three men (15%) showed a decline in serum PSA of at least 50%, sustained throughout treatment. Of 16 men treated for at least 2 months, six (37.5%) showed a fall in absolute PSA by a median of 48%. Increasing levels of serum bFGF and VEGF were associated with progressive disease; five of six men who demonstrated a fall in PSA also showed a decline in bFGF and VEGF levels, and three of four men with a rising PSA showed an increase in both growth factors. Adverse effects included constipation, morning drowsiness, dizziness and rash, and resulted in withdrawal from the study by three men. Evidence of peripheral sensory neuropathy was found in nine of 13 men before treatment. In the seven men who completed six months on thalidomide, subclinical evidence of peripheral neuropathy was found in four before treatment, but in all seven at repeat testing. The findings indicate that thalidomide may be an option for patients who have failed other forms of therapy, provided close follow-up is maintained for development of peripheral neuropathy.","[{'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 41, 'end': 52, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'androgen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D000728'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 77, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 124, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'haematological malignancies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 209, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D019337'}, {'text': 'Thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 238, 'end': 249, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 361, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'androgen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 425, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D000728'}, {'text': 'prostate cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 446, 'end': 461, 'mesh': 'D011471'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 606, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'constipation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1145, 'mesh': 'D003248'}, {'text': 'drowsiness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1165, 'mesh': 'D006970'}, {'text': 'dizziness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D004244'}, {'text': 'rash', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1181, 'end': 1185, 'mesh': 'D005076'}, {'text': 'peripheral sensory neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1376, 'end': 1387, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1434, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1534, 'end': 1545, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1674, 'end': 1695, 'mesh': 'D010523'}]" +1373,12677626,Central nervous system toxicity following the administration of levobupivacaine for lumbar plexus block: A report of two cases.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Central nervous system and cardiac toxicity following the administration of local anesthetics is a recognized complication of regional anesthesia. Levobupivacaine, the pure S(-) enantiomer of bupivacaine, was developed to improve the cardiac safety profile of bupivacaine. We describe 2 cases of grand mal seizures following accidental intravascular injection of levobupivacaine. CASE REPORT: Two patients presenting for elective orthopedic surgery of the lower limb underwent blockade of the lumbar plexus via the posterior approach. Immediately after the administration of levobupivacaine 0.5% with epinephrine 2.5 microgram/mL, the patients developed grand mal seizures, despite negative aspiration for blood and no clinical signs of intravenous epinephrine administration. The seizures were successfully treated with sodium thiopental in addition to succinylcholine in 1 patient. Neither patient developed signs of cardiovascular toxicity. Both patients were treated preoperatively with beta-adrenergic antagonist medications, which may have masked the cardiovascular signs of the unintentional intravascular administration of levobupivacaine with epinephrine. CONCLUSIONS: Although levobupivacaine may have a safer cardiac toxicity profile than racemic bupivacaine, if adequate amounts of levobupivacaine reach the circulation, it will result in convulsions. Plasma concentrations sufficient to result in central nervous system toxicity did not produce manifestations of cardiac toxicity in these 2 patients.","[{'text': 'Central nervous system toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 64, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'Levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 302, 'end': 317, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 347, 'end': 358, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 426, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'grand mal seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 518, 'end': 533, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 730, 'end': 745, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 756, 'end': 767, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'grand mal seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 809, 'end': 827, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 904, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 936, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'sodium thiopental', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 976, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'D013874'}, {'text': 'succinylcholine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1024, 'mesh': 'D013390'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1074, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'epinephrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1307, 'end': 1318, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1342, 'end': 1357, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1391, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1424, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'levobupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1449, 'end': 1464, 'mesh': 'C476513'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1506, 'end': 1517, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'central nervous system toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1565, 'end': 1596, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'cardiac toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1631, 'end': 1647, 'mesh': 'D066126'}]" +1374,12699527,Anaesthetic complications associated with myotonia congenita: case study and comparison with other myotonic disorders.,"Myotonia congenita (MC) is caused by a defect in the skeletal muscle chloride channel function, which may cause sustained membrane depolarisation.

METHODS: Twelve rats (six chronically epileptic animals and six controls) were anesthetized, given tracheotomies, and subjected to hyperventilation or hypoventilation conditions. Breathing movements caused changes in thoracic volume and forced air to flow tidally through a pneumotachograph. This flow was measured by using a differential pressure transducer, passed through a polygraph, and from this to a computer with custom software that derived ventilation (VE), tidal volume (VT), inspiratory time (TI), expiratory time (TE), breathing frequency (f), and mean inspiratory flow (VT/TI) on a breath-by-breath basis. RESULTS: The hyperventilation maneuver caused a decrease in spontaneous ventilation in pilocarpine-treated and control rats. Although VE had a similar decrease in both groups, in the epileptic group, the decrease in VE was due to a significant (p < 0.05) increase in TE peak in relation to that of the control animals. The hypoventilation maneuver led to an increase in the arterial Paco2, followed by an increase in VE. In the epileptic group, the increase in VE was mediated by a significant (p < 0.05) decrease in TE peak compared with the control group. Systemic application of KCN, to evaluate the effects of peripheral chemoreception activation on ventilation, led to a similar increase in VE for both groups. CONCLUSIONS: The data indicate that pilocarpine-treated animals have an altered ability to react to (or compensate for) blood gas changes with changes in ventilation and suggest that it is centrally determined. We speculate on the possible relation of the current findings on treating different epilepsy-associated conditions.","[{'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 38, 'end': 46, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'Apnea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D001049'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 88, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 347, 'end': 358, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 367, 'end': 375, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 415, 'end': 424, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'hyperventilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 508, 'end': 524, 'mesh': 'D006985'}, {'text': 'hyperventilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D006985'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1084, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'epileptic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1425, 'end': 1434, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1760, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2008, 'end': 2016, 'mesh': 'D004827'}]" +1376,12828076,Increased serum soluble Fas in patients with acute liver failure due to paracetamol overdose.,"BACKGROUND/AIMS: Experimental studies have suggested that apoptosis via the Fas/Fas Ligand signaling system may play an important role in the development of acute liver failure. The aim of the study was to investigate the soluble form of Fas in patients with acute liver failure. METHODOLOGY: Serum levels of sFas (soluble Fas) were measured by ELISA in 24 patients with acute liver failure and 10 normal control subjects. Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interferon-gamma were also determined by ELISA. RESULTS: Serum sFas was significantly increased in patients with acute liver failure (median, 26.8 U/mL; range, 6.9-52.7 U/mL) compared to the normal controls (median, 8.6 U/mL; range, 6.5-12.0 U/mL, P < 0.0001). Levels were significantly greater in patients with acute liver failure due to paracetamol overdose (median, 28.7 U/mL; range, 12.8-52.7 U/mL, n = 17) than those due to non-A to E hepatitis (median, 12.5 U/mL; range, 6.9-46.0 U/mL, n = 7, P < 0.01). There was no relationship of sFas to eventual outcome in the patients. A significant correlation was observed between serum sFas levels and aspartate aminotransferase (r = 0.613, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The increased concentration of sFas in serum of patients with acute liver failure may reflect activation of Fas-mediated apoptosis in the liver and this together with increased tumor necrosis factor-alpha may be an important factor in liver cell loss.","[{'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 83, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 84, 'end': 92, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 270, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 353, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 465, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 533, 'end': 538, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 539, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 678, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 877, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'paracetamol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 904, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 916, 'end': 924, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1005, 'end': 1014, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'aspartate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1224, 'mesh': 'D001224'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1359, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1460, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D009336'}]" +1377,12865514,Bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation for Parkinson's disease.,"High frequency stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is known to ameliorate the signs and symptoms of advanced Parkinson's disease. AIM: We studied the effect of high frequency STN stimulation in 23 patients. METHOD: Twenty-three patients suffering from severe Parkinson's disease (Stages III-V on Hoehn and Yahr scale) and, particularly bradykinesia, rigidity, and levodopa-induced dyskinesias underwent bilateral implantation of electrodes in the STN. Preoperative and postoperative assessments of these patients at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months follow-up, in ""on"" and ""off"" drug conditions, was carried out using Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, Hoehn and Yahr staging, England activities of daily living score and video recordings. RESULTS: After one year of electrical stimulation of the STN, the patients' scores for activities of daily living and motor examination scores (Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale parts II and III) off medication improved by 62% and 61% respectively (p<0.0005). The subscores for the akinesia, rigidity, tremor and gait also improved. (p<0.0005). The average levodopa dose decreased from 813 mg to 359 mg. The cognitive functions remained unchanged. Two patients developed device-related complications and two patients experienced abnormal weight gain. CONCLUSION: Bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation is an effective treatment for advanced Parkinson's disease. It reduces the severity of ""off"" phase symptoms, improves the axial symptoms and reduces levodopa requirements. The reduction in the levodopa dose is useful in controlling drug-induced dyskinesias.","[{'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 46, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 335, 'end': 354, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'bradykinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 412, 'end': 424, 'mesh': 'D018476'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 426, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 440, 'end': 448, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 457, 'end': 468, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's Disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 690, 'end': 709, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's Disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 963, 'end': 982, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'akinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1100, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'rigidity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1118, 'mesh': 'D009127'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1120, 'end': 1126, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1175, 'end': 1183, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1462, 'end': 1481, 'mesh': 'D010300'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1572, 'end': 1580, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1616, 'end': 1624, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'drug-induced dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1655, 'end': 1679, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +1378,12912689,Ocular motility changes after subtenon carboplatin chemotherapy for retinoblastoma.,"BACKGROUND: Focal subtenon carboplatin injections have recently been used as a presumably toxicity-free adjunct to systemic chemotherapy for intraocular retinoblastoma. OBJECTIVE: To report our clinical experience with abnormal ocular motility in patients treated with subtenon carboplatin chemotherapy. METHODS: We noted abnormal ocular motility in 10 consecutive patients with retinoblastoma who had received subtenon carboplatin. During ocular manipulation under general anesthesia, we assessed their eyes by forced duction testing, comparing ocular motility after tumor control with ocular motility at diagnosis. Eyes subsequently enucleated because of treatment failure (n = 4) were examined histologically. RESULTS: Limitation of ocular motility was detected in all 12 eyes of 10 patients treated for intraocular retinoblastoma with 1 to 6 injections of subtenon carboplatin as part of multimodality therapy. Histopathological examination revealed many lipophages in the periorbital fat surrounding the optic nerve in 1 eye, indicative of phagocytosis of previously existing fat cells and suggesting prior fat necrosis. The enucleations were technically difficult and hazardous for globe rupture because of extensive orbital soft tissue adhesions. CONCLUSIONS: Subtenon carboplatin chemotherapy is associated with significant fibrosis of orbital soft tissues, leading to mechanical restriction of eye movements and making subsequent enucleation difficult. Subtenon carboplatin is not free of toxicity, and its use is best restricted to specific indications.","[{'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 39, 'end': 50, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'retinoblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 68, 'end': 82, 'mesh': 'D012175'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 111, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 174, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'retinoblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 237, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D012175'}, {'text': 'abnormal ocular motility', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 303, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D015835'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'abnormal ocular motility', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 406, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D015835'}, {'text': 'retinoblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 463, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D012175'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 504, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 652, 'end': 657, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'retinoblastoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 903, 'end': 917, 'mesh': 'D012175'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 953, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'rupture', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1285, 'mesh': 'D012421'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1360, 'end': 1371, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1424, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'carboplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1555, 'end': 1566, 'mesh': 'D016190'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1582, 'end': 1590, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +1379,12948256,Ethambutol and optic neuropathy.,"PURPOSE: To demonstrate the association between ethambutol and optic neuropathy.

The clinical characteristics and initial and final visual acuity were analyzed to determine visual outcome. RESULTS: All patients had optic neuropathy between 1 to 6 months (mean = 2.9 months) after starting ethambutol therapy at a dosage ranging from 13 to 20 mg/kg/day (mean = 17 mg/kg/day). Seven (54%) of the 13 patients experienced visual recovery after stopping the drug. Of 6 patients with irreversible visual impairment, 4 patients had diabetes mellitus, glaucoma and a history of heavy smoking.

In order to quantify the incidence of these cardiac events, we performed a meta-analysis of clinical trials comparing VNR with other chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of various malignancies. Randomized clinical trials comparing VNR with other drugs in the treatment of cancer were searched in Medline, Embase, Evidence-based Medicine Reviews databases and the Cochrane library from 1987 to 2002. Outcomes of interest were severe cardiac events, toxic deaths and cardiac event-related deaths reported in each publication. We found 19 trials, involving 2441 patients treated by VNR and 2050 control patients. The incidence of cardiac events with VNR was 1.19% [95% confidence interval (CI) (0.75; 1.67)]. There was no difference in the risk of cardiac events between VNR and other drugs [odds ratio: 0.92, 95% CI (0.54; 1.55)]. The risk of VNR cardiac events was similar to vindesine (VDS) and other cardiotoxic drugs [fluorouracil, anthracyclines, gemcitabine (GEM) em leader ].

METHODS: All patients taking Vigabatrin alone or in combination with other antiepileptic drugs for at least 5 years (range 5-12 years) were entered into a visual surveillance programme. Patients were followed up at 6-monthly intervals for not less than 18 months (range 18-43 months). In all, 16 patients with unequivocal defects continued the medication. Following already published methodology (Eye 2002; 16;567-571) monocular mean radial degrees (MRDs) to the I/4e isopter on Goldmann perimetry was calculated for the right eye at the time of discovery of a visual field defect and again after not less than 18 months follow-up. RESULTS: Mean right eye MRD at presentation was 36.98 degrees (range 22.25-51.0), compared to 38.40 degrees (range 22.5-49.75) after follow-up; P=0.338 unpaired t-test. Only one patient demonstrated a deterioration in visual field during the study period and discontinued treatment. CONCLUSION: Established visual field defects presumed to be due to Vigabatrin therapy did not usually progress in spite of continuing use of the medication. These data give support to the hypothesis that the pathogenesis of Vigabatrin-associated visual field defects may be an idiosyncratic adverse drug reaction rather than dose-dependent toxicity.","[{'text': 'Vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'visual field defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'visual field defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 182, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'Vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 220, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 305, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'Vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 351, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'visual field defect', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 883, 'end': 902, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'deterioration in visual field', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1155, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'visual field defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1261, 'end': 1281, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'Vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'Vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1471, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'visual field defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1483, 'end': 1503, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1577, 'end': 1585, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +1385,15096374,Induction of rosaceiform dermatitis during treatment of facial inflammatory dermatoses with tacrolimus ointment.,"BACKGROUND: Tacrolimus ointment is increasingly used for anti-inflammatory treatment of sensitive areas such as the face, and recent observations indicate that the treatment is effective in steroid-aggravated rosacea and perioral dermatitis. We report on rosaceiform dermatitis as a complication of treatment with tacrolimus ointment. OBSERVATIONS: Six adult patients with inflammatory facial dermatoses were treated with tacrolimus ointment because of the ineffectiveness of standard treatments. Within 2 to 3 weeks of initially effective and well-tolerated treatment, 3 patients with a history of rosacea and 1 with a history of acne experienced sudden worsening with pustular rosaceiform lesions. Biopsy revealed an abundance of Demodex mites in 2 of these patients. In 1 patient with eyelid eczema, rosaceiform periocular dermatitis gradually appeared after 3 weeks of treatment. In 1 patient with atopic dermatitis, telangiectatic and papular rosacea insidiously appeared after 5 months of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Our observations suggest that the spectrum of rosaceiform dermatitis as a complication of treatment with tacrolimus ointment is heterogeneous. A variety of factors, such as vasoactive properties of tacrolimus, proliferation of Demodex due to local immunosuppression, and the occlusive properties of the ointment, may be involved in the observed phenomena. Future studies are needed to identify individual risk factors.","[{'text': 'dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 25, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D003872'}, {'text': 'facial inflammatory dermatoses', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D005148'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 102, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'Tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'steroid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 303, 'end': 310, 'mesh': 'D013256'}, {'text': 'rosacea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 322, 'end': 329, 'mesh': 'D012393'}, {'text': 'perioral dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 334, 'end': 353, 'mesh': 'D019557'}, {'text': 'dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 380, 'end': 390, 'mesh': 'D003872'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 427, 'end': 437, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'inflammatory facial dermatoses', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 486, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D005148'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 535, 'end': 545, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'rosacea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 712, 'end': 719, 'mesh': 'D012393'}, {'text': 'acne', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 744, 'end': 748, 'mesh': 'D000152'}, {'text': 'eczema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 908, 'end': 914, 'mesh': 'D004485'}, {'text': 'periocular dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 928, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D019557'}, {'text': 'atopic dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1015, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D003876'}, {'text': 'papular rosacea', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1068, 'mesh': 'D012393'}, {'text': 'dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1190, 'end': 1200, 'mesh': 'D003872'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1247, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1330, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D016559'}]" +1386,15229250,Structural abnormalities in the brains of human subjects who use methamphetamine.,"We visualize, for the first time, the profile of structural deficits in the human brain associated with chronic methamphetamine (MA) abuse. Studies of human subjects who have used MA chronically have revealed deficits in dopaminergic and serotonergic systems and cerebral metabolic abnormalities. Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and new computational brain-mapping techniques, we determined the pattern of structural brain alterations associated with chronic MA abuse in human subjects and related these deficits to cognitive impairment. We used high-resolution MRI and surface-based computational image analyses to map regional abnormalities in the cortex, hippocampus, white matter, and ventricles in 22 human subjects who used MA and 21 age-matched, healthy controls. Cortical maps revealed severe gray-matter deficits in the cingulate, limbic, and paralimbic cortices of MA abusers (averaging 11.3% below control; p < 0.05). On average, MA abusers had 7.8% smaller hippocampal volumes than control subjects (p < 0.01; left, p = 0.01; right, p < 0.05) and significant white-matter hypertrophy (7.0%; p < 0.01). Hippocampal deficits were mapped and correlated with memory performance on a word-recall test (p < 0.05). MRI-based maps suggest that chronic methamphetamine abuse causes a selective pattern of cerebral deterioration that contributes to impaired memory performance. MA may selectively damage the medial temporal lobe and, consistent with metabolic studies, the cingulate-limbic cortex, inducing neuroadaptation, neuropil reduction, or cell death. Prominent white-matter hypertrophy may result from altered myelination and adaptive glial changes, including gliosis secondary to neuronal damage. These brain substrates may help account for the symptoms of MA abuse, providing therapeutic targets for drug-induced brain injury.","[{'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'structural deficits in the human brain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 131, 'end': 169, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 194, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 262, 'end': 264, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'metabolic abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 354, 'end': 377, 'mesh': 'D008659'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 548, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'cognitive impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 605, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'abnormalities in the cortex, hippocampus, white matter, and ventricles', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 718, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 819, 'end': 821, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 964, 'end': 966, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1030, 'end': 1032, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1173, 'end': 1184, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'methamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'impaired memory performance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1440, 'end': 1467, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1471, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'hypertrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1673, 'end': 1684, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'gliosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1759, 'end': 1766, 'mesh': 'D005911'}, {'text': 'neuronal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1795, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'MA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1857, 'end': 1859, 'mesh': 'D008694'}, {'text': 'brain injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1914, 'end': 1926, 'mesh': 'D001930'}]" +1387,15265979,Disruption of hepatic lipid homeostasis in mice after amiodarone treatment is associated with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha target gene activation.,"Amiodarone, an efficacious and widely used antiarrhythmic agent, has been reported to cause hepatotoxicity in some patients. To gain insight into the mechanism of this unwanted effect, mice were administered various doses of amiodarone and examined for changes in hepatic histology and gene regulation. Amiodarone induced hepatomegaly, hepatocyte microvesicular lipid accumulation, and a significant decrease in serum triglycerides and glucose. Northern blot analysis of hepatic RNA revealed a dose-dependent increase in the expression of a number of genes critical for fatty acid oxidation, lipoprotein assembly, and lipid transport. Many of these genes are regulated by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha), a ligand-activated nuclear hormone receptor transcription factor. The absence of induction of these genes as well as hepatomegaly in PPARalpha knockout [PPARalpha-/-] mice indicated that the effects of amiodarone were dependent upon the presence of a functional PPARalpha gene. Compared to wild-type mice, treatment of PPARalpha-/- mice with amiodarone resulted in an increased rate and extent of total body weight loss. The inability of amiodarone to directly activate either human or mouse PPARalpha transiently expressed in human HepG2 hepatoma cells indicates that the effects of amiodarone on the function of this receptor were indirect. Based upon these results, we conclude that amiodarone disrupts hepatic lipid homeostasis and that the increased expression of PPARalpha target genes is secondary to this toxic effect. These results provide important new mechanistic information regarding the hepatotoxic effects of amiodarone and indicate that PPARalpha protects against amiodarone-induced hepatotoxicity.","[{'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 167, 'end': 177, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 259, 'end': 273, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 392, 'end': 402, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 470, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'hepatomegaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 489, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D006529'}, {'text': 'triglycerides', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 598, 'mesh': 'D014280'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 603, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'fatty acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 737, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D005227'}, {'text': 'hepatomegaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1022, 'end': 1034, 'mesh': 'D006529'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1107, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1257, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'weight loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1313, 'end': 1324, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'hepatoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1452, 'mesh': 'D006528'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1489, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1591, 'end': 1601, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1806, 'end': 1817, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1829, 'end': 1839, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1885, 'end': 1895, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1904, 'end': 1918, 'mesh': 'D056486'}]" +1388,15276093,Safety and compliance with once-daily niacin extended-release/lovastatin as initial therapy in the Impact of Medical Subspecialty on Patient Compliance to Treatment (IMPACT) study.,"Niacin extended-release/lovastatin is a new combination product approved for treatment of primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia. This open-labeled, multicenter study evaluated the safety of bedtime niacin extended-release/lovastatin when dosed as initial therapy and patient compliance to treatment in various clinical practice settings. A total of 4,499 patients with dyslipidemia requiring drug intervention was enrolled at 1,081 sites. Patients were treated with 1 tablet (500 mg of niacin extended-release/20 mg of lovastatin) once nightly for 4 weeks and then 2 tablets for 8 weeks. Patients also received dietary counseling, educational materials, and reminders to call a toll-free number that provided further education about dyslipidemia and niacin extended-release/lovastatin. Primary end points were study compliance, increases in liver transaminases to >3 times the upper limit of normal, and clinical myopathy. Final study status was available for 4,217 patients (94%). Compliance to niacin extended-release/lovastatin was 77%, with 3,245 patients completing the study. Patients in the southeast and those enrolled by endocrinologists had the lowest compliance and highest adverse event rates. Flushing was the most common adverse event, reported by 18% of patients and leading to discontinuation by 6%. Incidence of increased aspartate aminotransferase and/or alanine aminotransferase >3 times the upper limit of normal was <0.3%. An increase of creatine phosphokinase to >5 times the upper limit of normal occurred in 0.24% of patients, and no cases of drug-induced myopathy were observed.

After she had received a total of only 0.9 mg droperidol, a syringe containing diamorphine only was substituted and her unease resolved completely.

The case discussed herein initially appeared to be neurogenic diabetes insipidus (DI) secondary to a traumatic brain injury. The nursing staff, by reviewing the patient's health history with his family, discovered a history of polydipsia and long-standing lithium use. Lithium is implicated in drug-induced nephrogenic DI, and because the patient had not received lithium since being admitted to the hospital, his treatment changed to focus on nephrogenic DI. By combining information from the patient history, the physical examination, and radiologic and laboratory studies, the critical care team demonstrated that the patient had been self-treating his lithium-induced nephrogenic DI and developed neurogenic DI secondary to brain trauma. Thus successful treatment required that nephrogenic and neurogenic DI be treated concomitantly.","[{'text': 'diabetes insipidus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D003919'}, {'text': 'neurogenic diabetes insipidus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 247, 'end': 276, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'DI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 278, 'end': 280, 'mesh': 'D003919'}, {'text': 'traumatic brain injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 297, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'polydipsia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 423, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D059606'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 452, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'Lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 465, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'nephrogenic DI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 503, 'end': 517, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 567, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'nephrogenic DI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 640, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'lithium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 852, 'end': 859, 'mesh': 'D008094'}, {'text': 'nephrogenic DI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 868, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'neurogenic DI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 897, 'end': 910, 'mesh': 'D018500'}, {'text': 'brain trauma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 924, 'end': 936, 'mesh': 'D001930'}, {'text': 'neurogenic DI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 994, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D018500'}]" +1392,15482540,Factors contributing to ribavirin-induced anemia.,"BACKGROUND AND AIM: Interferon and ribavirin combination therapy for chronic hepatitis C produces hemolytic anemia. This study was conducted to identify the factors contributing to ribavirin-induced anemia. METHODS: Eighty-eight patients with chronic hepatitis C who received interferon-alpha-2b at a dose of 6 MU administered intramuscularly for 24 weeks in combination with ribavirin administered orally at a dose of 600 mg or 800 mg participated in the study. A hemoglobin concentration of <10 g/dL was defined as ribavirin-induced anemia. RESULTS: Ribavirin-induced anemia occurred in 18 (20.5%) patients during treatment. A 2 g/dL decrease in hemoglobin concentrations in patients with anemia was observed at week 2 after the start of treatment. The hemoglobin concentration in patients with > or =2 g/dL decrease at week 2 was observed to be significantly lower even after week 2 than in patients with <2 g/dL decrease (P < 0.01). A significant relationship was observed between the rate of reduction of hemoglobin concentrations at week 2 and the severity of anemia (P < 0.01). Such factors as sex (female), age (> or =60 years old), and the ribavirin dose by body weight (12 mg/kg or more) were significant by univariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS: Careful administration is necessary in patients > or =60 years old, in female patients, and in patients receiving a ribavirin dose of 12 mg/kg or more. Patients who experience a fall in hemoglobin concentrations of 2 g/dL or more at week 2 after the start of treatment should be monitored with particular care.","[{'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 42, 'end': 48, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'Interferon', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 70, 'end': 80, 'mesh': 'D016898'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 85, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 119, 'end': 138, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'hemolytic anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 148, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D000743'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 231, 'end': 240, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 249, 'end': 255, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis C', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 293, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D019698'}, {'text': 'interferon-alpha-2b', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 326, 'end': 345, 'mesh': 'D016898'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 426, 'end': 435, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 567, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 585, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'Ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 602, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 620, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 741, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1116, 'end': 1122, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1199, 'end': 1208, 'mesh': 'D012254'}, {'text': 'ribavirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1418, 'end': 1427, 'mesh': 'D012254'}]" +1393,15605432,Oxidative damage precedes nitrative damage in adriamycin-induced cardiac mitochondrial injury.,"The purpose of the present study was to determine if elevated reactive oxygen (ROS)/nitrogen species (RNS) reported to be present in adriamycin (ADR)-induced cardiotoxicity actually resulted in cardiomyocyte oxidative/nitrative damage, and to quantitatively determine the time course and subcellular localization of these postulated damage products using an in vivo approach. B6C3 mice were treated with a single dose of 20 mg/kg ADR. Ultrastructural damage and levels of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4HNE)-protein adducts and 3-nitrotyrosine (3NT) were analyzed. Quantitative ultrastructural damage using computerized image techniques showed cardiomyocyte injury as early as 3 hours, with mitochondria being the most extensively and progressively injured subcellular organelle. Analysis of 4HNE protein adducts by immunogold electron microscopy showed appearance of 4HNE protein adducts in mitochondria as early as 3 hours, with a peak at 6 hours and subsequent decline at 24 hours. 3NT levels were significantly increased in all subcellular compartments at 6 hours and subsequently declined at 24 hours. Our data showed ADR induced 4HNE-protein adducts in mitochondria at the same time point as when mitochondrial injury initially appeared. These results document for the first time in vivo that mitochondrial oxidative damage precedes nitrative damage. The progressive nature of mitochondrial injury suggests that mitochondria, not other subcellular organelles, are the major site of intracellular injury.","[{'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 46, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 93, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 166, 'end': 172, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'nitrogen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 187, 'mesh': 'D009584'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 228, 'end': 238, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 240, 'end': 243, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 253, 'end': 267, 'mesh': 'D066126'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 525, 'end': 528, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': '4-hydroxy-2-nonenal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 567, 'end': 586, 'mesh': 'C027576'}, {'text': '4HNE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 588, 'end': 592, 'mesh': 'C027576'}, {'text': '3-nitrotyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 629, 'mesh': 'C002744'}, {'text': '3NT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 631, 'end': 634, 'mesh': 'C002744'}, {'text': '4HNE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 878, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'C027576'}, {'text': '4HNE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 958, 'mesh': 'C027576'}, {'text': '3NT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1074, 'mesh': 'C002744'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': '4HNE', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1225, 'mesh': 'C027576'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial oxidative damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1385, 'end': 1415, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1489, 'mesh': 'D028361'}]" +1394,15609701,Sotalol-induced coronary spasm in a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy associated with sustained ventricular tachycardia.,"A 54-year-old man with severe left ventricular dysfunction due to dilated cardiomyopathy was referred to our hospital for symptomatic incessant sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT).

The antidepressant trazodone is a 5-HT 2A/2C receptor antagonist. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of trazodone treatment on behaviors dependent on the functional status of the nigrostriatal DAergic system. METHODS: The effect of pretreatment with trazodone on dexamphetamine- and apomorphine-induced oral stereotypies, on catalepsy induced by haloperidol and apomorphine (0.05 mg/kg, i.p.), on ergometrine-induced wet dog shake (WDS) behavior and fluoxetine-induced penile erections was studied in rats. We also investigated whether trazodone induces catalepsy in rats. RESULTS: Trazodone at 2.5-20 mg/kg i.p. did not induce catalepsy, and did not antagonize apomorphine (1.5 and 3 mg/kg) stereotypy and apomorphine (0.05 mg/kg)-induced catalepsy. However, pretreatment with 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg i.p. trazodone enhanced dexamphetamine stereotypy, and antagonized haloperidol catalepsy, ergometrine-induced WDS behavior and fluoxetine-induced penile erections. Trazodone at 30, 40 and 50 mg/kg i.p. induced catalepsy and antagonized apomorphine and dexamphetamine stereotypies. CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicate that trazodone at 2.5-20 mg/kg does not block pre- and postsynaptic striatal D2 DA receptors, while at 30, 40 and 50 mg/kg it blocks postsynaptic striatal D2 DA receptors. Furthermore, at 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg, trazodone blocks 5-HT 2A and 5-HT 2C receptors. We suggest that trazodone (5, 10 and 20 mg/kg), by blocking the 5-HT 2C receptors, releases the nigrostriatal DAergic neurons from tonic inhibition caused by 5-HT, and thereby potentiates dexamphetamine stereotypy and antagonizes haloperidol catalepsy.","[{'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': '5-Hydroxytryptamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 127, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 167, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 279, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 363, 'end': 372, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 382, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 448, 'end': 457, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 594, 'end': 603, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': 'dexamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 607, 'end': 621, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 627, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'oral stereotypies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 647, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'D009062'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 678, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 690, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 706, 'end': 717, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'ergometrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 741, 'end': 752, 'mesh': 'D004874'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 794, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 880, 'end': 889, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 898, 'end': 907, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'Trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 972, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1017, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1062, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1084, 'end': 1093, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1146, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': 'dexamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1208, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1220, 'end': 1229, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'ergometrine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1231, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'D004874'}, {'text': 'fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1268, 'end': 1278, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'Trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1305, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D002375'}, {'text': 'apomorphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1377, 'end': 1388, 'mesh': 'D001058'}, {'text': 'dexamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1393, 'end': 1407, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1461, 'end': 1470, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1664, 'end': 1673, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1681, 'end': 1685, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1693, 'end': 1697, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'trazodone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1728, 'end': 1737, 'mesh': 'D014196'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1776, 'end': 1780, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': '5-HT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1870, 'end': 1874, 'mesh': 'D012701'}, {'text': 'dexamphetamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1900, 'end': 1914, 'mesh': 'D003913'}, {'text': 'haloperidol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1942, 'end': 1953, 'mesh': 'D006220'}, {'text': 'catalepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1954, 'end': 1963, 'mesh': 'D002375'}]" +1396,15625689,Swallowing abnormalities and dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease.,"Gastrointestinal abnormalities in Parkinson's disease (PD) have been known for almost two centuries, but many aspects concerning their pathophysiology have not been completely clarified. The aim of this study was to characterize the oropharyngeal dynamics in PD patients with and without levodopa-induced dyskinesia. Fifteen dyskinetic, 12 nondyskinetic patients, and a control group were included. Patients were asked about dysphagia and evaluated with the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Parts II and III and the Hoehn and Yahr scale. Deglutition was assessed using modified barium swallow with videofluoroscopy. Nondyskinetic patients, but not the dyskinetic ones, showed less oropharyngeal swallowing efficiency (OPSE) for liquid food than controls (Dunnett, P = 0.02). Dyskinetic patients tended to have a greater OPSE than nondyskinetic (Dunnett, P = 0.06). Patients who were using a higher dose of levodopa had a greater OPSE and a trend toward a smaller oral transit time (Pearson's correlation, P = 0.01 and 0.08, respectively).

This study investigated the expression of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB), mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases and macrophages in the renal cortex and structural and functional renal changes of rats treated with gentamicin or gentamicin + pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), an NF-kappaB inhibitor. METHODS: 38 female Wistar rats were injected with gentamicin, 40 mg/kg, twice a day for 9 days, 38 with gentamicin + PDTC, and 28 with 0.15 M NaCl solution. The animals were killed 5 and 30 days after these injections and the kidneys were removed for histological and immunohistochemical studies. The results of the immunohistochemical studies were scored according to the extent of staining. The fractional interstitial area was determined by morphometry. RESULTS: Gentamicin-treated rats presented a transitory increase in plasma creatinine levels. Increased ED-1, MAP kinases and NF-kappaB staining were also observed in the renal cortex from all gentamicin-treated rats compared to control (p < 0.05). The animals killed on day 30 also presented fibrosis in the renal cortex despite the recovery of renal function. Treatment with PDTC reduced the functional and structural changes induced by gentamicin.

OBJECTIVE: To study the 2 drugs most clearly implicated (clozapine and olanzapine) and risperidone using a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. DESIGN: A cross-sectional design in stable, treated patients with schizophrenia evaluated using a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test and the Bergman minimal model analysis. SETTING: Subjects were recruited from an urban community mental health clinic and were studied at a general clinical research center. Patients Fifty subjects signed informed consent and 41 underwent the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. Thirty-six nonobese subjects with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, matched by body mass index and treated with either clozapine, olanzapine, or risperidone, were included in the analysis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Fasting plasma glucose and fasting serum insulin levels, insulin sensitivity index, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, and glucose effectiveness. RESULTS: The mean +/- SD duration of treatment with the identified atypical antipsychotic agent was 68.3 +/- 28.9 months (clozapine), 29.5 +/- 17.5 months (olanzapine), and 40.9 +/- 33.7 (risperidone). Fasting serum insulin concentrations differed among groups (F(33) = 3.35; P = .047) (clozapine>olanzapine>risperidone) with significant differences between clozapine and risperidone (t(33) = 2.32; P = .03) and olanzapine and risperidone (t(33) = 2.15; P = .04). There was a significant difference in insulin sensitivity index among groups (F(33) = 10.66; P<.001) (clozapineolanzapine>risperidone) (clozapine vs risperidone, t(33) = 2.94; P = .006; olanzapine vs risperidone, t(33) = 2.42; P = .02). There was a significant difference among groups in glucose effectiveness (F(30) = 4.18; P = .02) (clozapinedel, TaqIB, TaqID, Ser311Cys, rs6275, rs6277 and TaqIA) in the DRD2 gene in 146 schizophrenic inpatients (59 with EPS and 87 without EPS according to the Simpson-Angus Scale) treated with chlorpromazine after 8 weeks. The alleles of all loci were determined by PCR (polymerase chain reaction). RESULTS: Polymorphisms TaqID, Ser311Cys and rs6277 were not polymorphic in the population recruited in the present study. No statistical significance was found in the allele distribution of -141Cins>del, TaqIB, rs6275 and TaqIA or in the estimated haplotypes (constituted by TaqIB, rs6275 and TaqIA) in linkage disequilibrium between the two groups. CONCLUSION: Our results did not lend strong support to the view that the genetic variation of the DRD2 gene plays a major role in the individually variable adverse effect induced by chlorpromazine, at least in Chinese patients with schizophrenia.

In order to elucidate this problem, we have studied the effect of long-term physical activity on susceptibility to subsequent seizures. Male Wistar rats were subjected to repeated training sessions in a treadmill and swimming pool. Thereafter, seizures were induced by pilocarpine injections in trained and non-trained control groups. During the acute period of status epilepticus, we measured: (1) the latency of the first motor sign, (2) the intensity of seizures, (3) the time when it occurred within the 6-h observation period, and (4) the time when the acute period ended. All these behavioral parameters showed statistically significant changes suggesting that regular physical exercises decrease susceptibility to subsequently induced seizures and ameliorate the course of experimentally induced status epilepticus.","[{'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 57, 'end': 68, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 77, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 198, 'end': 206, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 358, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 476, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 501, 'end': 512, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 594, 'end': 612, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 689, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 974, 'end': 982, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1053, 'mesh': 'D013226'}]" +1420,16880771,Tonic dopaminergic stimulation impairs associative learning in healthy subjects.,"Endogenous dopamine plays a central role in salience coding during associative learning. Administration of the dopamine precursor levodopa enhances learning in healthy subjects and stroke patients. Because levodopa increases both phasic and tonic dopaminergic neurotransmission, the critical mechanism mediating the enhancement of learning is unresolved. We here probed how selective tonic dopaminergic stimulation affects associative learning. Forty healthy subjects were trained in a novel vocabulary of 45 concrete nouns over the course of 5 consecutive training days in a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design. Subjects received the tonically stimulating dopamine-receptor agonist pergolide (0.1 mg) vs placebo 120 min before training on each training day. The dopamine agonist significantly impaired novel word learning compared to placebo. This learning decrement persisted up to the last follow-up 4 weeks post-training. Subjects treated with pergolide also showed restricted emotional responses compared to the PLACEBO group. The extent of 'flattened' affect with pergolide was related to the degree of learning inhibition. These findings suggest that tonic occupation of dopamine receptors impairs learning by competition with phasic dopamine signals. Thus, phasic signaling seems to be the critical mechanism by which dopamine enhances associative learning in healthy subjects and stroke patients.","[{'text': 'impairs associative learning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 31, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D007859'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 192, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 211, 'end': 219, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 262, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 287, 'end': 295, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 767, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 793, 'end': 802, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 873, 'end': 881, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'impaired novel word learning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 904, 'end': 932, 'mesh': 'D007859'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1058, 'end': 1067, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'pergolide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'D010479'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1288, 'end': 1296, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1351, 'end': 1359, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1444, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1499, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D020521'}]" +1421,16906379,Minocycline-induced vasculitis fulfilling the criteria of polyarteritis nodosa.,"A 47-year-old man who had been taking minocycline for palmoplantar pustulosis developed fever, myalgias, polyneuropathy, and testicular pain, with elevated C-reactive protein (CRP).

This study was undertaken to evaluate the outcomes of liver transplantation for patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV). METHODS: A retrospective chart analysis and a review of the organ transplant database identified 51 patients (43 men and 8 women) transplanted for benign HBV-related cirrhotic diseases between June 2002 and December 2004 who had survived more than 3 months. HBIg was administered intravenously during the first week and intramuscularly thereafter. RESULTS: At a median follow-up of 14.1 months, the overall recurrence rate in the 51 patients was 3.9% (2/51). The overall patient survival was 88.3%, and 82.4% after 1 and 2 years, respectively. A daily oral dose of 100 mg lamivudine for 2 weeks before transplantation for 10 patients enabled 57.1% (4/7) and 62.5% (5/8) of HBV-DNA and HBeAg positive patients respectively to convert to be negative.

We have studied the effects of oral treatment with eslicarbazepine acetate on a whole-animal model in which partial seizures can be elicited repeatedly on different days without changes in threshold or seizure patterns.

Nephropathy caused by Chinese herbs has previously been reported, usually involving the use of aristolochic acids. We report a 23-year-old woman who developed acute renal failure following prolonged use of a proprietary Chinese herbal slimming pill that contained anthraquinone derivatives, extracted from Rhizoma Rhei (rhubarb). The renal injury was probably aggravated by the concomitant intake of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, diclofenac. Renal pathology was that of hypocellular interstitial fibrosis. Spontaneous renal recovery occurred upon cessation of the slimming pills, but mild interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy was still evident histologically 4 months later. Although a causal relationship between the use of an anthraquinone-containing herbal agent and renal injury remains to be proven, phytotherapy-associated interstitial nephropathy should be considered in patients who present with unexplained renal failure.","[{'text': 'Acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 19, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'anthraquinones', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 82, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D000880'}, {'text': 'Chinese herbal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 98, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D004365'}, {'text': 'Nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 255, 'end': 266, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Chinese herbs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 277, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D004365'}, {'text': 'aristolochic acids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 350, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D034341'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 414, 'end': 433, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'Chinese herbal', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 475, 'end': 489, 'mesh': 'D004365'}, {'text': 'anthraquinone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 519, 'end': 532, 'mesh': 'D000880'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 589, 'end': 601, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'diclofenac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 695, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 761, 'end': 769, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 867, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 888, 'end': 895, 'mesh': 'D001284'}, {'text': 'anthraquinone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 998, 'end': 1011, 'mesh': 'D000880'}, {'text': 'renal injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1040, 'end': 1052, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1123, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D051437'}]" +1425,17035713,Chloroacetaldehyde as a sulfhydryl reagent: the role of critical thiol groups in ifosfamide nephropathy.,"Chloroacetaldehyde (CAA) is a metabolite of the alkylating agent ifosfamide (IFO) and putatively responsible for renal damage following anti-tumor therapy with IFO. Depletion of sulfhydryl (SH) groups has been reported from cell culture, animal and clinical studies. In this work the effect of CAA on human proximal tubule cells in primary culture (hRPTEC) was investigated. Toxicity of CAA was determined by protein content, cell number, LDH release, trypan blue exclusion assay and caspase-3 activity. Free thiols were measured by the method of Ellman. CAA reduced hRPTEC cell number and protein, induced a loss in free intracellular thiols and an increase in necrosis markers. CAA but not acrolein inhibited the cysteine proteases caspase-3, caspase-8 and cathepsin B. Caspase activation by cisplatin was inhibited by CAA. In cells stained with fluorescent dyes targeting lysosomes, CAA induced an increase in lysosomal size and lysosomal leakage. The effects of CAA on cysteine protease activities and thiols could be reproduced in cell lysate. Acidification, which slowed the reaction of CAA with thiol donors, could also attenuate effects of CAA on necrosis markers, thiol depletion and cysteine protease inhibition in living cells. Thus, CAA directly reacts with cellular protein and non-protein thiols, mediating its toxicity on hRPTEC. This effect can be reduced by acidification. Therefore, urinary acidification could be an option to prevent IFO nephropathy in patients.","[{'text': 'Chloroacetaldehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'sulfhydryl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 34, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'thiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 65, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D013438'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 81, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 92, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Chloroacetaldehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 105, 'end': 123, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 125, 'end': 128, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'ifosfamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 170, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'IFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 182, 'end': 185, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 218, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 246, 'end': 251, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'IFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 265, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'sulfhydryl', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 283, 'end': 293, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'SH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 295, 'end': 297, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 399, 'end': 402, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'Toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 480, 'end': 488, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 492, 'end': 495, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'trypan blue', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 557, 'end': 568, 'mesh': 'D014343'}, {'text': 'thiols', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D013438'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 660, 'end': 663, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'thiols', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 741, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'D013438'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 767, 'end': 775, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 785, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'acrolein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 797, 'end': 805, 'mesh': 'D000171'}, {'text': 'cysteine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 820, 'end': 828, 'mesh': 'D003545'}, {'text': 'cisplatin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 899, 'end': 908, 'mesh': 'D002945'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 929, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 991, 'end': 994, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1074, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'cysteine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1078, 'end': 1086, 'mesh': 'D003545'}, {'text': 'thiols', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1111, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D013438'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1198, 'end': 1201, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'thiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1207, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D013438'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1253, 'end': 1256, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1260, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'thiol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D013438'}, {'text': 'cysteine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1298, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D003545'}, {'text': 'CAA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1350, 'end': 1353, 'mesh': 'C004656'}, {'text': 'thiols', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1408, 'end': 1414, 'mesh': 'D013438'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'IFO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1561, 'mesh': 'D007069'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1573, 'mesh': 'D007674'}]" +1426,17042797,Stereological methods reveal the robust size and stability of ectopic hilar granule cells after pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus in the adult rat.,"Following status epilepticus in the rat, dentate granule cell neurogenesis increases greatly, and many of the new neurons appear to develop ectopically, in the hilar region of the hippocampal formation. It has been suggested that the ectopic hilar granule cells could contribute to the spontaneous seizures that ultimately develop after status epilepticus. However, the population has never been quantified, so it is unclear whether it is substantial enough to have a strong influence on epileptogenesis. To quantify this population, the total number of ectopic hilar granule cells was estimated using unbiased stereology at different times after pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus. The number of hilar neurons immunoreactive for Prox-1, a granule-cell-specific marker, was estimated using the optical fractionator method. The results indicate that the size of the hilar ectopic granule cell population after status epilepticus is substantial, and stable over time. Interestingly, the size of the population appears to be correlated with the frequency of behavioral seizures, because animals with more ectopic granule cells in the hilus have more frequent behavioral seizures. The hilar ectopic granule cell population does not appear to vary systematically across the septotemporal axis, although it is associated with an increase in volume of the hilus. The results provide new insight into the potential role of ectopic hilar granule cells in the pilocarpine model of temporal lobe epilepsy.","[{'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 96, 'end': 107, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 116, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 163, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 490, 'end': 508, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 800, 'end': 811, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 820, 'end': 838, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1066, 'end': 1084, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1223, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1324, 'end': 1332, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1618, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'temporal lobe epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1628, 'end': 1650, 'mesh': 'D004833'}]" +1427,17069550,"A prospective, open-label trial of galantamine in autistic disorder.","OBJECTIVE: Post-mortem studies have reported abnormalities of the cholinergic system in autism. The purpose of this study was to assess the use of galantamine, an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor and nicotinic receptor modulator, in the treatment of interfering behaviors in children with autism. METHODS: Thirteen medication-free children with autism (mean age, 8.8 +/- 3.5 years) participated in a 12-week, open-label trial of galantamine. Patients were rated monthly by parents on the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) and the Conners' Parent Rating Scale-Revised, and by a physician using the Children's Psychiatric Rating Scale and the Clinical Global Impressions scale. RESULTS: Patients showed a significant reduction in parent-rated irritability and social withdrawal on the ABC as well as significant improvements in emotional lability and inattention on the Conners' Parent Rating Scale--Revised. Similarly, clinician ratings showed reductions in the anger subscale of the Children's Psychiatric Rating Scale. Eight of 13 participants were rated as responders on the basis of their improvement scores on the Clinical Global Impressions scale. Overall, galantamine was well-tolerated, with no significant adverse effects apart from headaches in one patient.

METHOD: One hundred twelve subjects (70% male; mean age=23.3 years [SD = 5.1]) with first-episode schizophrenia (75%), schizophreniform disorder (17%), or schizoaffective disorder (8%) were randomly assigned to treatment with olanzapine (2.5-20 mg/day) or risperidone (1-6 mg/day). RESULTS: Response rates did not significantly differ between olanzapine (43.7%, 95% CI=28.8%-58.6%) and risperidone (54.3%, 95% CI=39.9%-68.7%). Among those responding to treatment, more subjects in the olanzapine group (40.9%, 95% CI=16.8%-65.0%) than in the risperidone group (18.9%, 95% CI=0%-39.2%) had subsequent ratings not meeting response criteria. Negative symptom outcomes and measures of parkinsonism and akathisia did not differ between medications. Extrapyramidal symptom severity scores were 1.4 (95% CI=1.2-1.6) with risperidone and 1.2 (95% CI=1.0-1.4) with olanzapine. Significantly more weight gain occurred with olanzapine than with risperidone: the increase in weight at 4 months relative to baseline weight was 17.3% (95% CI=14.2%-20.5%) with olanzapine and 11.3% (95% CI=8.4%-14.3%) with risperidone. Body mass index at baseline and at 4 months was 24.3 (95% CI=22.8-25.7) versus 28.2 (95% CI=26.7-29.7) with olanzapine and 23.9 (95% CI=22.5-25.3) versus 26.7 (95% CI=25.2-28.2) with risperidone. CONCLUSIONS: Clinical outcomes with risperidone were equal to those with olanzapine, and response may be more stable. Olanzapine may have an advantage for motor side effects. Both medications caused substantial rapid weight gain, but weight gain was greater with olanzapine.","[{'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 25, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 43, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 90, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 204, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 247, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'schizophrenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 379, 'end': 392, 'mesh': 'D012559'}, {'text': 'schizophreniform disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 400, 'end': 425, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'schizoaffective disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 436, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'D011618'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 507, 'end': 517, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 537, 'end': 548, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 624, 'end': 634, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 667, 'end': 678, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 766, 'end': 776, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 823, 'end': 834, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 962, 'end': 974, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'akathisia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 979, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D017109'}, {'text': 'Extrapyramidal symptom', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1025, 'end': 1047, 'mesh': 'D001480'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1106, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1137, 'end': 1147, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1179, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1194, 'end': 1204, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1327, 'end': 1337, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1373, 'end': 1384, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1494, 'end': 1504, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1569, 'end': 1580, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'risperidone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1618, 'end': 1629, 'mesh': 'D018967'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1655, 'end': 1665, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'Olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1700, 'end': 1710, 'mesh': 'C076029'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1799, 'end': 1810, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'weight gain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1816, 'end': 1827, 'mesh': 'D015430'}, {'text': 'olanzapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1845, 'end': 1855, 'mesh': 'C076029'}]" +1429,17159032,Early paracentral visual field loss in patients taking hydroxychloroquine.,"OBJECTIVE: To review the natural history and ocular and systemic adverse effects of patients taking hydroxychloroquine sulfate who attended an ophthalmic screening program. DESIGN: Retrospective study. RESULTS: Records of 262 patients who were taking hydroxychloroquine and screened in the Department of Ophthalmology were reviewed. Of the 262 patients, 14 (18%) of 76 who had stopped treatment at the time of the study experienced documented adverse effects. Systemic adverse effects occurred in 8 patients (10.5%) and ocular adverse effects, in 5 (6.5%). Thirty-five patients (13.4%) had visual field abnormalities, which were attributed to hydroxychloroquine treatment in 4 patients (1.5%). Three of the 4 patients were taking less than 6.5 mg/kg per day and all patients had normal renal and liver function test results. CONCLUSIONS: The current study used a protocol of visual acuity and color vision assessment, funduscopy, and Humphrey 10-2 visual field testing and shows that visual field defects appeared before any corresponding changes in any other tested clinical parameters; the defects were reproducible and the test parameters were reliable. Patients taking hydroxychloroquine can demonstrate a toxic reaction in the retina despite the absence of known risk factors. Screening, including Humphrey 10-2 visual field assessment, is recommended 2 years after the initial baseline and yearly thereafter.","[{'text': 'visual field loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 18, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'hydroxychloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 55, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D006886'}, {'text': 'hydroxychloroquine sulfate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 175, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'D006886'}, {'text': 'hydroxychloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 326, 'end': 344, 'mesh': 'D006886'}, {'text': 'visual field abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 665, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'hydroxychloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 718, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D006886'}, {'text': 'visual field defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1079, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'hydroxychloroquine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1248, 'end': 1266, 'mesh': 'D006886'}]" +1430,17223814,Peri-operative atrioventricular block as a result of chemotherapy with epirubicin and paclitaxel.,"A 47-year-old woman presented for mastectomy and immediate latissimus dorsi flap reconstruction having been diagnosed with carcinoma of the breast 6 months previously. In the preceding months she had received neo-adjuvant chemotherapy with epirubicin, paclitaxel (Taxol) and cyclophosphamide. This had been apparently uncomplicated and she had maintained a remarkably high level of physical activity. She was found to be bradycardic at pre-operative assessment but had no cardiac symptoms. Second degree Mobitz type II atrioventricular block was diagnosed on electrocardiogram, and temporary transvenous ventricular pacing instituted in the peri-operative period. We discuss how evidence-based guidelines would not have been helpful in this case, and how chemotherapy can exhibit substantial cardiotoxicity that may develop over many years. We suggest that patients who have received chemotherapy at any time should have a pre-operative electrocardiogram even if they are asymptomatic.","[{'text': 'atrioventricular block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D054537'}, {'text': 'epirubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 71, 'end': 81, 'mesh': 'D015251'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 86, 'end': 96, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'carcinoma of the breast', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 221, 'end': 244, 'mesh': 'D001943'}, {'text': 'epirubicin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 338, 'end': 348, 'mesh': 'D015251'}, {'text': 'paclitaxel', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 350, 'end': 360, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'Taxol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 367, 'mesh': 'D017239'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 373, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'bradycardic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 519, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D001919'}, {'text': 'atrioventricular block', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 617, 'end': 639, 'mesh': 'D054537'}, {'text': 'cardiotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 890, 'end': 904, 'mesh': 'D066126'}]" +1431,17255138,Risks and benefits of COX-2 inhibitors vs non-selective NSAIDs: does their cardiovascular risk exceed their gastrointestinal benefit? A retrospective cohort study.,"OBJECTIVES: The risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with COX-2 inhibitors may offset their gastrointestinal (GI) benefit compared with non-selective (NS) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). We aimed to compare the risks of hospitalization for AMI and GI bleeding among elderly patients using COX-2 inhibitors, NS-NSAIDs and acetaminophen. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using administrative data of patients > or =65 years of age who filled a prescription for NSAID or acetaminophen during 1999-2002. Outcomes were compared using Cox regression models with time-dependent exposures. RESULTS: Person-years of exposure among non-users of aspirin were: 75,761 to acetaminophen, 42,671 to rofecoxib 65,860 to celecoxib, and 37,495 to NS-NSAIDs. Among users of aspirin, they were: 14,671 to rofecoxib, 22,875 to celecoxib, 9,832 to NS-NSAIDs and 38,048 to acetaminophen. Among non-users of aspirin, the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) of hospitalization for AMI/GI vs the acetaminophen (with no aspirin) group were: rofecoxib 1.27 (1.13, 1.42), celecoxib 0.93 (0.83, 1.03), naproxen 1.59 (1.31, 1.93), diclofenac 1.17 (0.99, 1.38) and ibuprofen 1.05 (0.74, 1.51). Among users of aspirin, they were: rofecoxib 1.73 (1.52, 1.98), celecoxib 1.34 (1.19, 1.52), ibuprofen 1.51 (0.95, 2.41), diclofenac 1.69 (1.35, 2.10), naproxen 1.35 (0.97, 1.88) and acetaminophen 1.29 (1.17, 1.42). CONCLUSION: Among non-users of aspirin, naproxen seemed to carry the highest risk for AMI/GI bleeding. The AMI/GI toxicity of celecoxib was similar to that of acetaminophen and seemed to be better than those of rofecoxib and NS-NSAIDs. Among users of aspirin, both celecoxib and naproxen seemed to be the least toxic.","[{'text': 'COX-2 inhibitors', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 22, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D052246'}, {'text': 'acute myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 215, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 217, 'end': 220, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'COX-2 inhibitors', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 227, 'end': 243, 'mesh': 'D052246'}, {'text': 'non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 324, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D000894'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 425, 'end': 428, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'GI bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 433, 'end': 444, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'COX-2 inhibitors', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 490, 'mesh': 'D052246'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 506, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 671, 'end': 684, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 862, 'end': 875, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'rofecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 887, 'end': 896, 'mesh': 'C116926'}, {'text': 'celecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 907, 'end': 916, 'mesh': 'C105934'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 958, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'rofecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'C116926'}, {'text': 'celecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1009, 'end': 1018, 'mesh': 'C105934'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1053, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1172, 'end': 1175, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1199, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'rofecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1230, 'end': 1239, 'mesh': 'C116926'}, {'text': 'celecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1259, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'C105934'}, {'text': 'naproxen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1288, 'end': 1296, 'mesh': 'D009288'}, {'text': 'diclofenac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1316, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1393, 'end': 1400, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'rofecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1413, 'end': 1422, 'mesh': 'C116926'}, {'text': 'celecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1442, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'C105934'}, {'text': 'ibuprofen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1471, 'end': 1480, 'mesh': 'D007052'}, {'text': 'diclofenac', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1500, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D004008'}, {'text': 'naproxen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1530, 'end': 1538, 'mesh': 'D009288'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1561, 'end': 1574, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1632, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'naproxen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1634, 'end': 1642, 'mesh': 'D009288'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1680, 'end': 1683, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'GI bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1684, 'end': 1695, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'AMI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1701, 'end': 1704, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1716, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'celecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1720, 'end': 1729, 'mesh': 'C105934'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1753, 'end': 1766, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'rofecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1805, 'end': 1814, 'mesh': 'C116926'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1845, 'end': 1852, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'celecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1859, 'end': 1868, 'mesh': 'C105934'}, {'text': 'naproxen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1873, 'end': 1881, 'mesh': 'D009288'}]" +1432,17297207,Quinine-induced arrhythmia in a patient with severe malaria.,"It was reported that there was a case of severe malaria patient with jaundice who presented with arrhythmia (premature ventricular contraction) while getting quinine infusion was reported. A man, 25 years old, was admitted to hospital with high fever, chill, vomiting, jaundice. The patient was fully conscious, blood pressure 120/80 mmHg, pulse rate 100 x/minute, regular. On admission, laboratory examination showed Plasmodium falciparum (++++), total bilirubin 8.25 mg/dL, conjugated bilirubin 4.36 mg/dL, unconjugated bilirubin 3.89 mg/dL, potassium 3.52 meq/L Patient was diagnosed as severe malaria with jaundice and got quinine infusion in dextrose 5% 500 mg/8 hour. On the second day the patient had vomitus, diarrhea, tinnitus, loss of hearing. After 30 hours of quinine infusion the patient felt palpitation and electrocardiography (ECG) recording showed premature ventricular contraction (PVC) > 5 x/minute, trigemini, constant type--sinoatrial block, positive U wave. He was treated with lidocaine 50 mg intravenously followed by infusion 1500 mg in dextrose 5%/24 hour and potassium aspartate tablet. Quinine infusion was discontinued and changed with sulfate quinine tablets. Three hours later the patient felt better, the frequency of PVC reduced to 4 - 5 x/minute and on the third day ECG was normal, potassium level was 3.34 meq/L. He was discharged on 7th day in good condition. Quinine, like quinidine, is a chincona alkaloid that has anti-arrhythmic property, although it also pro-arrhythmic that can cause various arrhythmias, including severe arrhythmia such as multiple PVC. Administration of parenteral quinine must be done carefully and with good observation because of its pro-arrhythmic effect, especially in older patients who have heart diseases or patients with electrolyte disorder (hypokalemia) which frequently occurs due to vomiting and or diarrhea in malaria cases.","[{'text': 'Quinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D011803'},

Wilson disease patient with hepatic presentation, anxiety and SPECT abnormalities.","Wilson's disease is an autosomal recessive disorder of hepatic copper metabolism with consequent copper accumulation and toxicity in many tissues and consequent hepatic, neurologic and psychiatric disorders. We report a case of Wilson's disease with chronic liver disease; moreover, in our patient, presenting also with high levels of state anxiety without depression, 99mTc-ECD-SPECT showed cortical hypoperfusion in frontal lobes, more marked on the left frontal lobe. During the follow-up of our patient, penicillamine was interrupted after the appearance of a lichenoid dermatitis, and zinc acetate permitted to continue the successful treatment of the patient without side-effects. In our case the therapy with zinc acetate represented an effective treatment for a Wilson's disease patient in which penicillamine-related side effects appeared. The safety of the zinc acetate allowed us to avoid other potentially toxic chelating drugs; this observation is in line with the growing evidence on the efficacy of the drug in the treatment of Wilson's disease. Since most of Wilson's disease penicillamine-treated patients do not seem to develop this skin lesion, it could be conceivable that a specific genetic factor is involved in drug response. Further studies are needed for a better clarification of Wilson's disease therapy, and in particular to differentiate specific therapies for different Wilson's disease phenotypes.","[{'text': 'Penicillamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 13, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'lichenoid dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 22, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D017512'}, {'text': 'zinc acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 70, 'mesh': 'D019345'}, {'text': 'Wilson disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 76, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D006527'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 126, 'end': 133, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': ""Wilson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 159, 'end': 175, 'mesh': 'D006527'}, {'text': 'copper', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 222, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D003300'}, {'text': 'copper', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 256, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D003300'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 280, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': ""Wilson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 387, 'end': 403, 'mesh': 'D006527'}, {'text': 'chronic liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 409, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'anxiety', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 500, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D001008'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 516, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'penicillamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 667, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'lichenoid dermatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 723, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D017512'}, {'text': 'zinc acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 749, 'end': 761, 'mesh': 'D019345'}, {'text': 'zinc acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 875, 'end': 887, 'mesh': 'D019345'}, {'text': ""Wilson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 929, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D006527'}, {'text': 'penicillamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 963, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'zinc acetate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': 'D019345'}, {'text': ""Wilson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1202, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D006527'}, {'text': ""Wilson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1234, 'end': 1250, 'mesh': 'D006527'}, {'text': 'penicillamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1251, 'end': 1264, 'mesh': 'D010396'}, {'text': 'skin lesion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1310, 'end': 1321, 'mesh': 'D012871'}, {'text': ""Wilson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1481, 'mesh': 'D006527'}, {'text': ""Wilson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1559, 'end': 1575, 'mesh': 'D006527'}]" +1434,17351238,A dramatic drop in blood pressure following prehospital GTN administration.,"A male in his sixties with no history of cardiac chest pain awoke with chest pain following an afternoon sleep.

Given the lifelong nature of hypertension, there is a need to evaluate the long-term efficacy and tolerability of higher doses of combination anti-hypertensive therapies. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the efficacy and tolerability of valsartan (VAL) or hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ)-monotherapy and higher-dose combinations in patients with essential hypertension. METHODS: The first part of this study was an 8-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel-group trial. Patients with essential hypertension (mean sitting diastolic BP [MSDBP], > or =95 mm Hg and <110 mm Hg) were randomized to 1 of 8 treatment groups: VAL 160 or 320 mg; HCTZ 12.5 or 25 mg; VAL/HCTZ 160/12.5, 320/12.5, or 320/25 mg; or placebo. Mean changes in MSDBP and mean sitting systolic BP (MSSBP) were analyzed at the 8-week core study end point. VAL/HCTZ 320/12.5 and 320/25 mg were further investigated in a 54-week, open-label extension. Response was defined as MSDBP <90 mm Hg or a > or =10 mm Hg decrease compared to baseline. Control was defined as MSDBP <90 mm Hg compared with baseline. Tolerability was assessed by monitoring adverse events at randomization and all subsequent study visits and regular evaluation of hematology and blood chemistry. RESULTS: A total of 1346 patients were randomized into the 8-week core study (734 men, 612 women; 924 white, 291 black, 23 Asian, 108 other; mean age, 52.7 years; mean weight, 92.6 kg). All active treatments were associated with significantly reduced MSSBP and MSDBP during the core 8-week study, with each monotherapy significantly contributing to the overall effect of combination therapy (VAL and HCTZ, P < 0.001). Each combination was associated with significantly greater reductions in MSSBP and MSDBP compared with the monotherapies and placebo (all, P < 0.001). The mean reduction in MSSBP/MSDBP with VAL/HCTZ 320/25 mg was 24.7/16.6 mm Hg, compared with 5.9/7.0 mm Hg with placebo. The reduction in MSSBP was significantly greater with VAL/HCTZ 320/25 mg compared with VAL/HCTZ 160/12.5 mg (P < 0.002). Rates of response and BP control were significantly higher in the groups that received combination treatment compared with those that received monotherapy. The incidence of hypokalemia was lower with VAL/HCTZ combinations (1.8%-6.1%) than with HCTZ monotherapies (7.1%-13.3%). The majority of adverse events in the core study were of mild to moderate severity. The efficacy and tolerability of VAL/HCTZ combinations were maintained during the extension (797 patients). CONCLUSIONS: In this study population, combination therapies with VAL/HCTZ were associated with significantly greater BP reductions compared with either monotherapy, were well tolerated, and were associated with less hypokalemia than HCTZ alone.","[{'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 14, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'hydrochlorothiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 24, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 195, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 262, 'end': 274, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 392, 'end': 404, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 510, 'end': 522, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'valsartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 602, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 613, 'end': 616, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'hydrochlorothiazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 621, 'end': 640, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 642, 'end': 646, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'essential hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 706, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'C562386'}, {'text': 'essential hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 878, 'end': 900, 'mesh': 'C562386'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1012, 'end': 1015, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1051, 'end': 1054, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1055, 'end': 1059, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1215, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1219, 'end': 1223, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2017, 'end': 2020, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2025, 'end': 2029, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2233, 'end': 2236, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2237, 'end': 2241, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2369, 'end': 2372, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2373, 'end': 2377, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2402, 'end': 2405, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2406, 'end': 2410, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2609, 'end': 2620, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2636, 'end': 2639, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2640, 'end': 2644, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2680, 'end': 2684, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2830, 'end': 2833, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2834, 'end': 2838, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'VAL', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2971, 'end': 2974, 'mesh': 'C081489'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2975, 'end': 2979, 'mesh': 'D006852'}, {'text': 'hypokalemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 3122, 'end': 3133, 'mesh': 'D007008'}, {'text': 'HCTZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 3139, 'end': 3143, 'mesh': 'D006852'}]" +1437,17384765,"Succimer chelation improves learning, attention, and arousal regulation in lead-exposed rats but produces lasting cognitive impairment in the absence of lead exposure.","BACKGROUND: There is growing pressure for clinicians to prescribe chelation therapy at only slightly elevated blood lead levels. However, very few studies have evaluated whether chelation improves cognitive outcomes in Pb-exposed children, or whether these agents have adverse effects that may affect brain development in the absence of Pb exposure. OBJECTIVES: The present study was designed to answer these questions, using a rodent model of early childhood Pb exposure and treatment with succimer, a widely used chelating agent for the treatment of Pb poisoning. RESULTS: Pb exposure produced lasting impairments in learning, attention, inhibitory control, and arousal regulation, paralleling the areas of dysfunction seen in Pb-exposed children. Succimer treatment of the Pb-exposed rats significantly improved learning, attention, and arousal regulation, although the efficacy of the treatment varied as a function of the Pb exposure level and the specific functional deficit. In contrast, succimer treatment of rats not previously exposed to Pb produced lasting and pervasive cognitive and affective dysfunction comparable in magnitude to that produced by the higher Pb exposure regimen. CONCLUSIONS: These are the first data, to our knowledge, to show that treatment with any chelating agent can alleviate cognitive deficits due to Pb exposure. These findings suggest that it may be possible to identify a succimer treatment protocol that improves cognitive outcomes in Pb-exposed children. However, they also suggest that succimer treatment should be strongly discouraged for children who do not have elevated tissue levels of Pb or other heavy metals.","[{'text': 'Succimer', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D004113'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 75, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'cognitive impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 114, 'end': 134, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 153, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'lead', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 284, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 387, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 505, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 628, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'succimer', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 659, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D004113'}, {'text': 'Pb poisoning', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 720, 'end': 732, 'mesh': 'D007855'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 743, 'end': 745, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 899, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'Succimer', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 918, 'end': 926, 'mesh': 'D004113'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 944, 'end': 946, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1097, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'succimer', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1171, 'mesh': 'D004113'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1216, 'end': 1218, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1341, 'end': 1343, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'cognitive deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1481, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1507, 'end': 1509, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'succimer', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1581, 'end': 1589, 'mesh': 'D004113'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1645, 'end': 1647, 'mesh': 'D007854'}, {'text': 'succimer', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1698, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D004113'}, {'text': 'Pb', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1803, 'end': 1805, 'mesh': 'D007854'}]" +1438,17445520,Caffeine challenge test in panic disorder and depression with panic attacks.,"Our aim was to observe if patients with panic disorder (PD) and patients with major depression with panic attacks (MDP) (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition criteria) respond in a similar way to the induction of panic attacks by an oral caffeine challenge test.

The patients had no psychotropic drug for at least a 4-week period. In a randomized double-blind experiment performed in 2 occasions 7 days apart, 480 mg caffeine and a caffeine-free (placebo) solution were administered in a coffee form and anxiety scales were applied before and after each test.

However, the direct benefits of this possible reshaping on LV function in the absence of underlying MR remain incompletely understood. The study aim was to identify these benefits in a canine model of acute heart failure. METHODS: Six dogs underwent MAP with a prosthetic band on the posterior mitral annulus, using four mattress sutures. The sutures were passed individually through four tourniquets and exteriorized untied via the left atriotomy. Sonomicrometry crystals were implanted around the mitral annulus and left ventricle to measure geometry and regional function. Acute heart failure was induced by propranolol and volume loading after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass; an absence of MR was confirmed by echocardiography. MAP was accomplished by cinching the tourniquets. Data were acquired at baseline, after induction of acute heart failure, and after MAP. RESULTS: MAP decreased mitral annular dimensions in both commissure-commissure and septal-lateral directions. Concomitantly, the diastolic diameter of the LV base and LV sphericity decreased (i.e., improved) from 37.4 +/- 9.3 to 35.9 +/- 10 mm (p = 0.063), and from 67.9 +/- 18.6% to 65.3 +/- 18.9% (p = 0.016), respectively. Decreases were evident in both LV end-diastolic pressure (from 17 +/- 7 to 15 +/- 6 mmHg, p = 0.0480 and Tau (from 48 +/- 8 to 45 +/- 8 ms, p <0.01), while fractional shortening at the LV base increased from 7.7 +/- 4.5% to 9.4 +/- 4.5% (p = 0.045). After MAP, increases were identified in both cardiac output (from 1.54 +/- 0.57 to 1.65 +/- 0.57 1/min) and Emax (from 1.86 +/- 0.9 to 2.41 +/- 1.31 mmHg/ml). CONCLUSION: The data acquired suggest that isolated MAP may have certain benefits on LV dimension/function in acute heart failure, even in the absence of MR. However, further investigations are warranted in a model of chronic heart failure.","[{'text': 'failing left ventricle', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 64, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'dilated cardiomyopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 203, 'end': 225, 'mesh': 'D002311'}, {'text': 'mitral regurgitation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 241, 'end': 261, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 263, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 300, 'end': 302, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 469, 'end': 471, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 576, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 951, 'end': 964, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 980, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1070, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1213, 'end': 1226, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2094, 'end': 2107, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'MR', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2132, 'end': 2134, 'mesh': 'D008944'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2204, 'end': 2217, 'mesh': 'D006333'}]" +1440,17496739,Piperacillin/tazobactam-induced seizure rapidly reversed by high flux hemodialysis in a patient on peritoneal dialysis.,"Despite popular use of piperacillin, the dire neurotoxicity associated with piperacillin still goes unrecognized, leading to a delay in appropriate management. We report a 57-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), who developed slurred speech, tremor, bizarre behavior, progressive mental confusion, and 2 episodes of generalized tonic-clonic seizure (GTCS) after 5 doses of piperacillin/tazobactam (2 g/250 mg) were given for bronchiectasis with secondary infection. The laboratory data revealed normal plasma electrolyte and ammonia levels but leukocytosis. Neurologic examinations showed dysarthria and bilateral Babinski sign. Computed tomography of brain and electroencephalogram were unremarkable. Despite the use of antiepileptic agents, another GTCS episode recurred after the sixth dose of piperacillin/tazobactam. Brain magnetic resonance imaging did not demonstrate acute infarction and organic brain lesions. Initiation of high-flux hemodialysis rapidly reversed the neurologic symptoms within 4 hours. Piperacillin-induced encephalopathy should be considered in any uremic patients with unexplained neurological manifestations. CAPD is inefficient in removing piperacillin, whereas hemodialysis can rapidly terminate the piperacillin-induced encephalopathy.","[{'text': 'Piperacillin/tazobactam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 23, 'mesh': 'C085143'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 32, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'piperacillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 155, 'mesh': 'D010878'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 166, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'piperacillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 196, 'end': 208, 'mesh': 'D010878'}, {'text': 'end-stage renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 315, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'tremor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 429, 'end': 435, 'mesh': 'D014202'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 474, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'tonic-clonic seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 515, 'end': 535, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'GTCS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 537, 'end': 541, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'piperacillin/tazobactam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 583, 'mesh': 'C085143'}, {'text': 'bronchiectasis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 612, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D001987'}, {'text': 'secondary infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 632, 'end': 651, 'mesh': 'D060085'}, {'text': 'ammonia', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 712, 'end': 719, 'mesh': 'D000641'}, {'text': 'leukocytosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 731, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D007964'}, {'text': 'dysarthria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 776, 'end': 786, 'mesh': 'D004401'}, {'text': 'GTCS', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 938, 'end': 942, 'mesh': 'D004830'}, {'text': 'piperacillin/tazobactam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 984, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'C085143'}, {'text': 'infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D007238'}, {'text': 'organic brain lesions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1083, 'end': 1104, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'Piperacillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1200, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D010878'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1221, 'end': 1235, 'mesh': 'D001927'}, {'text': 'uremic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1264, 'end': 1270, 'mesh': 'D006463'}, {'text': 'piperacillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1358, 'end': 1370, 'mesh': 'D010878'}, {'text': 'piperacillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1419, 'end': 1431, 'mesh': 'D010878'}, {'text': 'encephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1440, 'end': 1454, 'mesh': 'D001927'}]" +1441,17543491,Frequency of transient ipsilateral vocal cord paralysis in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy under local anesthesia.,"BACKGROUND: Especially because of improvements in clinical neurologic monitoring, carotid endarterectomy done under local anesthesia has become the technique of choice in several centers. Temporary ipsilateral vocal nerve palsies due to local anesthetics have been described, however. Such complications are most important in situations where there is a pre-existing contralateral paralysis. We therefore examined the effect of local anesthesia on vocal cord function to better understand its possible consequences. METHODS: This prospective study included 28 patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy under local anesthesia. Vocal cord function was evaluated before, during, and after surgery (postoperative day 1) using flexible laryngoscopy. Anesthesia was performed by injecting 20 to 40 mL of a mixture of long-acting (ropivacaine) and short-acting (prilocaine) anesthetic. RESULTS: All patients had normal vocal cord function preoperatively. Twelve patients (43%) were found to have intraoperative ipsilateral vocal cord paralysis. It resolved in all cases < or =24 hours. There were no significant differences in operating time or volume or frequency of anesthetic administration in patients with temporary vocal cord paralysis compared with those without. CONCLUSION: Local anesthesia led to temporary ipsilateral vocal cord paralysis in almost half of these patients. Because pre-existing paralysis is of a relevant frequency (up to 3%), a preoperative evaluation of vocal cord function before carotid endarterectomy under local anesthesia is recommended to avoid intraoperative bilateral paralysis. In patients with preoperative contralateral vocal cord paralysis, surgery under general anesthesia should be considered.","[{'text': 'vocal cord paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 35, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'vocal nerve palsies', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 336, 'end': 355, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 507, 'end': 516, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'ropivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 951, 'end': 962, 'mesh': 'C037663'}, {'text': 'prilocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 982, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D011318'}, {'text': 'vocal cord paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1143, 'end': 1163, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'vocal cord paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1341, 'end': 1361, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'vocal cord paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1449, 'end': 1469, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1525, 'end': 1534, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1725, 'end': 1734, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'vocal cord paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1800, 'mesh': 'D014826'}]" +1442,17572393,Neuroprotective effects of melatonin upon the offspring cerebellar cortex in the rat model of BCNU-induced cortical dysplasia.,"Cortical dysplasia is a malformation characterized by defects in proliferation, migration and maturation. This study was designed to evaluate the alterations in offspring rat cerebellum induced by maternal exposure to carmustine-[1,3-bis (2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosoure] (BCNU) and to investigate the effects of exogenous melatonin upon cerebellar BCNU-induced cortical dysplasia, using histological and biochemical analyses. Pregnant Wistar rats were assigned to five groups: intact-control, saline-control, melatonin-treated, BCNU-exposed and BCNU-exposed plus melatonin. Rats were exposed to BCNU on embryonic day 15 and melatonin was given until delivery. Immuno/histochemistry and electron microscopy were carried out on the offspring cerebellum, and levels of malondialdehyde and superoxide dismutase were determined. Histopathologically, typical findings were observed in the cerebella from the control groups, but the findings consistent with early embryonic development were noted in BCNU-exposed cortical dysplasia group. There was a marked increase in the number of TUNEL positive cells and nestin positive cells in BCNU-exposed group, but a decreased immunoreactivity to glial fibrillary acidic protein, synaptophysin and transforming growth factor beta1 was observed, indicating a delayed maturation, and melatonin significantly reversed these changes. Malondialdehyde level in BCNU-exposed group was higher than those in control groups and melatonin decreased malondialdehyde levels in BCNU group (P<0.01), while there were no significant differences in the superoxide dismutase levels between these groups. These data suggest that exposure of animals to BCNU during pregnancy leads to delayed maturation of offspring cerebellum and melatonin protects the cerebellum against the effects of BCNU.","[{'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 36, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 94, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'cortical dysplasia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 107, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D054220'}, {'text': 'Cortical dysplasia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 127, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D054220'}, {'text': 'carmustine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 345, 'end': 355, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': '1,3-bis (2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosoure', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 357, 'end': 393, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 396, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 472, 'end': 476, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'cortical dysplasia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 485, 'end': 503, 'mesh': 'D054220'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 633, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 669, 'end': 673, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 687, 'end': 696, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 719, 'end': 723, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 748, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 890, 'end': 905, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 910, 'end': 920, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1121, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'cortical dysplasia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1130, 'end': 1148, 'mesh': 'D054220'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1251, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1442, 'end': 1451, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'Malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1490, 'end': 1505, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1515, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1578, 'end': 1587, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1598, 'end': 1613, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1624, 'end': 1628, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1696, 'end': 1706, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1793, 'end': 1797, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'melatonin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1871, 'end': 1880, 'mesh': 'D008550'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1928, 'end': 1932, 'mesh': 'D002330'}]" +1443,17828434,Myo-inositol-1-phosphate (MIP) synthase inhibition: in-vivo study in rats.,Lithium and valproate are the prototypic mood stabilizers and have diverse structures and targets.

Overall, as an entity, ATIN remains under-diagnosed, as symptoms resolve spontaneously if the medication is stopped. We report on a 14-year-old boy who developed acute renal failure 2 weeks after aortic valve surgery. He was put on aspirin following surgery and took ibuprofen for fever for nearly a week prior to presentation. He then presented to the emergency department feeling quite ill and was found to have a blood urea nitrogen (BUN) concentration of of 147 mg/dl, creatinine of 15.3 mg/dl and serum potassium of 8.7 mEq/l. Dialysis was immediately initiated. A kidney biopsy showed inflammatory infiltrate consistent with ATIN.

Recent studies show that the YMDD motif mutants (resistant hepatitis B virus) occur as natural genome variability in lamivudine-untreated chronic hepatitis B patients. In this study we aimed to determine the rate of YMDD motif mutants in lamivudine-untreated chronic hepatitis B patients in Iran. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 77 chronic hepatitis B patients who had not been treated with lamivudine were included in the study. Serum samples from patients were tested by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) for detection of YMDD motif mutants. All patients were also tested for liver enzymes, anti-HCV, HBeAg, and anti-HBe. RESULTS: Of the 77 patients enrolled in the study, 73% were male and 27% were female. Mean ALT and AST levels were 124.4+/-73.4 and 103.1+/-81 IU/l, respectively. HBeAg was positive in 40% and anti-HBe in 60% of the patients. Anti-HCV was negative in all of them. YMDD motif mutants were not detected in any of the patients despite the liver enzyme levels and the presence of HBeAg or anti-HBe. CONCLUSION: Although the natural occurrence of YMDD motif mutants in lamivudine-untreated patients with chronic hepatitis B has been reported, these mutants were not detected in Iranian lamivudine-untreated chronic hepatitis B patients.","[{'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 30, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis B virus infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 73, 'end': 108, 'mesh': 'D019694'}, {'text': 'Lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 132, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 181, 'mesh': 'D019694'}, {'text': 'hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 251, 'end': 262, 'mesh': 'D006509'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 319, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 330, 'end': 349, 'mesh': 'D019694'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 430, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 451, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D019694'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 525, 'end': 544, 'mesh': 'D019694'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 584, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'HBeAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 840, 'end': 845, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'HBeAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1024, 'end': 1029, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'HBeAg', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1237, 'end': 1242, 'mesh': 'D006513'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1325, 'end': 1335, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1360, 'end': 1379, 'mesh': 'D019694'}, {'text': 'lamivudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1442, 'end': 1452, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'chronic hepatitis B', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1463, 'end': 1482, 'mesh': 'D019694'}]" +1447,18025637,Branch retinal vein occlusion and fluoxetine.,"A case of branch retinal vein occlusion associated with fluoxetine-induced secondary hypertension is described.

In the present study, we describe the proinflammatory effects of bupivacaine on local prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production and cyclooxygenase (COX) gene expression that increases postoperative pain in human subjects. METHODS: Subjects (n = 114) undergoing extraction of impacted third molars received either 2% lidocaine or 0.5% bupivacaine before surgery and either rofecoxib 50 mg or placebo orally 90 min before surgery and for the following 48 h. Oral mucosal biopsies were taken before surgery and 48 h after surgery. After extraction, a microdialysis probe was placed at the surgical site for PGE2 and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) measurements. RESULTS: The bupivacaine/rofecoxib group reported significantly less pain, as assessed by a visual analog scale, compared with the other three treatment groups over the first 4 h. However, the bupivacaine/placebo group reported significantly more pain at 24 h and PGE2 levels during the first 4 h were significantly higher than the other three treatment groups. Moreover, bupivacaine significantly increased COX-2 gene expression at 48 h as compared with the lidocaine/placebo group. Thromboxane levels were not significantly affected by any of the treatments, indicating that the effects seen were attributable to inhibition of COX-2, but not COX-1. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that bupivacaine stimulates COX-2 gene expression after tissue injury, which is associated with higher PGE2 production and pain after the local anesthetic effect dissipates.","[{'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 44, 'end': 53, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 57, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 118, 'end': 122, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 137, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 278, 'end': 290, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 357, 'end': 368, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'prostaglandin E2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 378, 'end': 394, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 396, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'postoperative pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 469, 'end': 487, 'mesh': 'D010149'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 601, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 619, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'rofecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 657, 'end': 666, 'mesh': 'C116926'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 889, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'thromboxane B2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 898, 'end': 912, 'mesh': 'D013929'}, {'text': 'TXB2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 914, 'end': 918, 'mesh': 'D013929'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 947, 'end': 958, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'rofecoxib', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 959, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'C116926'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1003, 'end': 1007, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1181, 'end': 1185, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1198, 'end': 1202, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1306, 'end': 1317, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'lidocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1393, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D008012'}, {'text': 'Thromboxane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1418, 'end': 1429, 'mesh': 'D013931'}, {'text': 'bupivacaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1625, 'end': 1636, 'mesh': 'D002045'}, {'text': 'tissue injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1676, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D017695'}, {'text': 'PGE2', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1723, 'end': 1727, 'mesh': 'D015232'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1743, 'end': 1747, 'mesh': 'D010146'}]" +1449,18189308,p75NTR expression in rat urinary bladder sensory neurons and spinal cord with cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis.,"A role for nerve growth factor (NGF) in contributing to increased voiding frequency and altered sensation from the urinary bladder has been suggested. Previous studies have examined the expression and regulation of tyrosine kinase receptors (Trks) in micturition reflexes with urinary bladder inflammation. The present studies examine the expression and regulation of another receptor known to bind NGF, p75(NTR), after various durations of bladder inflammation induced by cyclophosphamide (CYP). CYP-induced cystitis increased (P < or = 0.001) p75(NTR) expression in the superficial lateral and medial dorsal horn in L1-L2 and L6-S1 spinal segments. The number of p75(NTR)-immunoreactive (-IR) cells in the lumbosacral dorsal root ganglia (DRG) also increased (P < or = 0.05) with CYP-induced cystitis (acute, intermediate, and chronic). Quantitative, real-time polymerase chain reaction also demonstrated significant increases (P < or = 0.01) in p75(NTR) mRNA in DRG with intermediate and chronic CYP-induced cystitis. Retrograde dye-tracing techniques with Fastblue were used to identify presumptive bladder afferent cells in the lumbosacral DRG. In bladder afferent cells in DRG, p75(NTR)-IR was also increased (P < or = 0.01) with cystitis. In addition to increases in p75(NTR)-IR in DRG cell bodies, increases (P < or = 0.001) in pericellular (encircling DRG cells) p75(NTR)-IR in DRG also increased. Confocal analyses demonstrated that pericellular p75(NTR)-IR was not colocalized with the glial marker, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). These studies demonstrate that p75(NTR) expression in micturition reflexes is present constitutively and modified by bladder inflammation. The functional significance of p75(NTR) expression in micturition reflexes remains to be determined.","[{'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 78, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 103, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'tyrosine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 328, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D014443'}, {'text': 'urinary bladder inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 390, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'bladder inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 554, 'end': 574, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cyclophosphamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 586, 'end': 602, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 610, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 622, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 895, 'end': 898, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 907, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'CYP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1112, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D003520'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1132, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'cystitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1349, 'end': 1357, 'mesh': 'D003556'}, {'text': 'bladder inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1781, 'end': 1801, 'mesh': 'D003556'}]" +1450,18340638,Azathioprine-induced suicidal erythrocyte death.,"BACKGROUND: Azathioprine is widely used as an immunosuppressive drug. The side effects of azathioprine include anemia, which has been attributed to bone marrow suppression. Alternatively, anemia could result from accelerated suicidal erythrocyte death or eryptosis, which is characterized by exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS) at the erythrocyte surface and by cell shrinkage. METHODS: The present experiments explored whether azathioprine influences eryptosis. According to annexin V binding, erythrocytes from patients indeed showed a significant increase of PS exposure within 1 week of treatment with azathioprine. In a second series, cytosolic Ca2+ activity (Fluo3 fluorescence), cell volume (forward scatter), and PS-exposure (annexin V binding) were determined by FACS analysis in erythrocytes from healthy volunteers. RESULTS: Exposure to azathioprine (> or =2 microg/mL) for 48 hours increased cytosolic Ca2+ activity and annexin V binding and decreased forward scatter. The effect of azathioprine on both annexin V binding and forward scatter was significantly blunted in the nominal absence of extracellular Ca2+.

Efforts must therefore continue to be made to obviate this setback OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the cardiovascular and respiratory changes during unilateral and conventional spinal anaesthesia. METHODS: With ethical approval, we studied 74 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), physical status class 1 and 2 patients scheduled for elective unilateral lower limb surgery. Patients were randomly allocated into one of two groups: lateral and conventional spinal anaesthesia groups. In the lateral position with operative side down, patients recived 10 mg (2mls) of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine through a 25-gauge spinal needle. Patients in the unilateral group were maintained in the lateral position for 15 minutes following spinal injection while those in the conventional group were turned supine immediately after injection. Blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation were monitored over 1 hour. RESULTS: Three patients (8.1%) in the unilateral group and 5 (13.5%) in the conventional group developed hypotension, P= 0.71. Four (10.8%) patients in the conventional group and 1 (2.7%) in the unilateral group, P= 0.17 required epinephrine infusion to treat hypotension. Patients in the conventional group had statistically significant greater fall in the systolic blood pressures at 15, 30 and 45 minutes when compared to the baseline (P= 0.003, 0.001 and 0.004). The mean respiratory rate and oxygen saturations in the two groups were similar. CONCLUSION: Compared to conventional spinal anaesthesia, unilateral spinal anaesthesia was associated with fewer cardiovascular perturbations.

Clinically significant anemia (hemoglobin <7 g/dL) was observed in 5.4% of patients (CD4, 165 cells/microL) and hepatitis (clinical jaundice with alanine aminotransferase > 5 times upper limits of normal) in 3.5% of patients (CD4, 260 cells/microL). Women were significantly more likely to experience lactic acidosis, while men were significantly more likely to experience immune reconstitution syndrome (p < 0.05). Among the patients with 1 year of follow-up, NVP therapy was significantly associated with developing rash and d4T therapy with developing peripheral neuropathy (p < 0.05). Anemia and hepatitis often occur within 12 weeks of initiating generic HAART. Frequent and early monitoring for these toxicities is warranted in developing countries where generic HAART is increasingly available.","[{'text': 'HIV-infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 66, 'end': 78, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'HIV-infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 249, 'end': 261, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'HIV-infected', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 326, 'end': 338, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': '3TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 528, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'd4T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 534, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D018119'}, {'text': 'nevirapine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 540, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D019829'}, {'text': 'NVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 552, 'end': 555, 'mesh': 'D019829'}, {'text': 'zidovudine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 566, 'end': 576, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 578, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': '3TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 585, 'end': 588, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'NVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 591, 'end': 594, 'mesh': 'D019829'}, {'text': '3TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 604, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'd4T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 610, 'end': 613, 'mesh': 'D018119'}, {'text': 'efavirenz', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 616, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'C098320'}, {'text': 'EFV', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 627, 'end': 630, 'mesh': 'C098320'}, {'text': 'AZT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 645, 'end': 648, 'mesh': 'D015215'}, {'text': '3TC', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 651, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D019259'}, {'text': 'EFV', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 657, 'end': 660, 'mesh': 'C098320'}, {'text': 'rash', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 737, 'end': 741, 'mesh': 'D005076'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 777, 'end': 798, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 851, 'end': 857, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 940, 'end': 949, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'jaundice', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 960, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D007565'}, {'text': 'alanine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 974, 'end': 981, 'mesh': 'D000409'}, {'text': 'lactic acidosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1129, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'D000140'}, {'text': 'immune reconstitution syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1201, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D054019'}, {'text': 'NVP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1289, 'end': 1292, 'mesh': 'D019829'}, {'text': 'rash', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1346, 'end': 1350, 'mesh': 'D005076'}, {'text': 'd4T', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1355, 'end': 1358, 'mesh': 'D018119'}, {'text': 'peripheral neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1383, 'end': 1404, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'Anemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1417, 'end': 1423, 'mesh': 'D000740'}, {'text': 'hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1428, 'end': 1437, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'toxicities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1535, 'end': 1545, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +1453,18450790,Thalidomide and sensory neurotoxicity: a neurophysiological study.,"BACKGROUND: Recent studies confirmed a high incidence of sensory axonal neuropathy in patients treated with different doses of thalidomide. The study's aims were to measure variations in sural nerve sensory action potential (SAP) amplitude in patients with refractory cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) treated with thalidomide and use these findings to identify the neurotoxic potential of thalidomide and the recovery capacity of sensory fibres after discontinuation of treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Clinical and electrophysiological data in 12 female patients with CLE during treatment with thalidomide and up to 47 months after discontinuation of treatment were analysed. Sural nerve SAP amplitude reduction > or =40% was the criteria for discontinuing therapy. RESULTS: During treatment, 11 patients showed a reduction in sural nerve SAP amplitude compared to baseline values (9 with a reduction > or =50% and 2 <50%). One patient showed no changes in SAP amplitude. Five patients complained of paresthesias and leg cramps. After thalidomide treatment, sural SAP amplitude recovered in 3 patients. At detection of reduction in sural nerve SAP amplitude, the median thalidomide cumulative dose was 21.4 g. The threshold neurotoxic dosage is lower than previously reported. CONCLUSIONS: Sural nerve SAP amplitude reduction is a reliable and sensitive marker of degeneration and recovery of sensory fibres. This electrophysiological parameter provides information about subclinical neurotoxic potential of thalidomide but is not helpful in predicting the appearance of sensory symptoms.","[{'text': 'Thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 11, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'sensory neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 37, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'sensory axonal neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 124, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D010523'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 194, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'cutaneous lupus erythematosus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 335, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D008178'}, {'text': 'CLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 366, 'end': 369, 'mesh': 'D008178'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 384, 'end': 395, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 435, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 459, 'end': 470, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'CLE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 639, 'end': 642, 'mesh': 'D008178'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 665, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'paresthesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1083, 'mesh': 'D010292'}, {'text': 'cramps', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1092, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D009120'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1117, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1241, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D013792'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'neurotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1555, 'end': 1565, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'thalidomide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1579, 'end': 1590, 'mesh': 'D013792'}]" +1454,18801087,Amiodarone-related pulmonary mass and unique membranous glomerulonephritis in a patient with valvular heart disease: Diagnostic pitfall and new findings.,"Amiodarone is an anti-arrhythmic drug for life-threatening tachycardia, but various adverse effects have been reported. Reported herein is an autopsy case of valvular heart disease, in a patient who developed a lung mass (1.5 cm in diameter) and proteinuria (2.76 g/day) after treatment with amiodarone for a long time. The lung mass was highly suspected to be lung cancer on CT and positron emission tomography, but histologically the lesion was composed of lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates in alveolar walls and intra-alveolar accumulation of foamy macrophages containing characteristic myelinoid bodies, indicating that it was an amiodarone-related lesion. In addition, the lung tissue had unevenly distributed hemosiderin deposition, and abnormally tortuous capillaries were seen in the mass and in heavily hemosiderotic lung portions outside the mass. In the kidneys, glomeruli had membrane spikes, prominent swelling of podocytes and subepithelial deposits, which were sometimes large and hump-like. Autoimmune diseases, viral hepatitis, malignant neoplasms or other diseases with a known relationship to membranous glomerulonephritis were not found. The present case highlights the possibility that differential diagnosis between an amiodarone-related pulmonary lesion and a neoplasm can be very difficult radiologically, and suggests that membranous glomerulonephritis might be another possible complication of amiodarone treatment.","[{'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'pulmonary mass', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 19, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D055370'}, {'text': 'membranous glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 74, 'mesh': 'D015433'}, {'text': 'valvular heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 93, 'end': 115, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': 'Amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 154, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'arrhythmic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 176, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 213, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D013610'}, {'text': 'valvular heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 312, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D006349'}, {'text': 'lung mass', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 365, 'end': 374, 'mesh': 'D055370'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 400, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 446, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'lung mass', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 478, 'end': 487, 'mesh': 'D055370'}, {'text': 'lung cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 515, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D008175'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 784, 'end': 794, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'hemosiderin', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 865, 'end': 876, 'mesh': 'D006486'}, {'text': 'hemosiderotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 962, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D006486'}, {'text': 'Autoimmune diseases', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1157, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D001327'}, {'text': 'viral hepatitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1193, 'mesh': 'D006525'}, {'text': 'neoplasms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1214, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'membranous glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1262, 'end': 1291, 'mesh': 'D015433'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1391, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D000638'}, {'text': 'pulmonary lesion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1410, 'end': 1426, 'mesh': 'D055370'}, {'text': 'neoplasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1433, 'end': 1441, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'membranous glomerulonephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1498, 'end': 1527, 'mesh': 'D015433'}, {'text': 'amiodarone', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1570, 'end': 1580, 'mesh': 'D000638'}]" +1455,18945509,Risk of coronary artery disease associated with initial sulphonylurea treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes: a matched case-control study.,"AIMS: This study sought to assess the risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) associated with initial treatment of type 2 diabetes with different sulphonylureas. METHODS: In type 2 diabetic patients, cases who developed CAD were compared retrospectively with controls that did not. The 20-year risk of CAD at diagnosis of diabetes, using the UKPDS risk engine, was used to match cases with controls. RESULTS: The 76 cases of CAD were compared with 152 controls. The hazard of developing CAD (95% CI) associated with initial treatment increased by 2.4-fold (1.3-4.3, P=0.004) with glibenclamide; 2-fold (0.9-4.6, P=0.099) with glipizide; 2.9-fold (1.6-5.1, P=0.000) with either, and was unchanged with metformin. The hazard decreased 0.3-fold (0.7-1.7, P=0.385) with glimepiride, 0.4-fold (0.7-1.3, P=0.192) with gliclazide, and 0.4-fold (0.7-1.1, P=0.09) with either. CONCLUSIONS: Initiating treatment of type 2 diabetes with glibenclamide or glipizide is associated with increased risk of CAD in comparison to gliclazide or glimepiride. If confirmed, this may be important because most Indian patients receive the cheaper older sulphonylureas, and present guidelines do not distinguish between individual agents.","[{'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 8, 'end': 31, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'sulphonylurea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 56, 'end': 69, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'type 2 diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 97, 'end': 112, 'mesh': 'D003924'}, {'text': 'coronary artery disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 201, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'CAD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'type 2 diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 268, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D003924'}, {'text': 'sulphonylureas', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 299, 'end': 313, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'type 2 diabetic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 327, 'end': 342, 'mesh': 'D003924'}, {'text': 'CAD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 373, 'end': 376, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'CAD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 455, 'end': 458, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 483, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'CAD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 578, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'CAD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 640, 'end': 643, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'glibenclamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 733, 'end': 746, 'mesh': 'D005905'}, {'text': 'glipizide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 779, 'end': 788, 'mesh': 'D005913'}, {'text': 'metformin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 854, 'end': 863, 'mesh': 'D008687'}, {'text': 'glimepiride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 919, 'end': 930, 'mesh': 'C057619'}, {'text': 'gliclazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 965, 'end': 975, 'mesh': 'D005907'}, {'text': 'type 2 diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1058, 'end': 1073, 'mesh': 'D003924'}, {'text': 'glibenclamide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1079, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'D005905'}, {'text': 'glipizide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1096, 'end': 1105, 'mesh': 'D005913'}, {'text': 'CAD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1143, 'end': 1146, 'mesh': 'D003324'}, {'text': 'gliclazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1164, 'end': 1174, 'mesh': 'D005907'}, {'text': 'glimepiride', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1189, 'mesh': 'C057619'}, {'text': 'sulphonylureas', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1296, 'mesh': '-1'}]" +1456,18987260,Reduced progression of adriamycin nephropathy in spontaneously hypertensive rats treated by losartan.,"BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to investigate the antihypertensive effects of angiotensin II type-1 receptor blocker, losartan, and its potential in slowing down renal disease progression in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) with adriamycin (ADR) nephropathy. METHODS: Six-month-old female SHR were randomly selected in six groups. Two control groups (SH(6), SH(12)) received vehicle. Groups ADR(6), ADR+LOS(6) and ADR(12), and ADR+LOS(12) received ADR (2 mg/kg/b.w. i.v.) twice in a 3-week interval. Group ADR+LOS(6) received losartan (10 mg/kg/b.w./day by gavages) for 6 weeks and group ADR+LOS(12) for 12 weeks after second injection of ADR. Animals were killed after 6 or 12 weeks, respectively. Haemodynamic measurements were performed on anaesthetized animals, blood and urine samples were taken for biochemical analysis and the left kidney was processed for morphological studies. RESULTS: Short-term losartan treatment, besides antihypertensive effect, improved glomerular filtration rate and ameliorated glomerulosclerosis resulting in decreased proteinuria. Prolonged treatment with losartan showed further reduction of glomerulosclerosis associated with reduced progression of tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis, thus preventing heavy proteinuria and chronic renal failure. Losartan reduced uraemia and increased urea clearance in advanced ADR nephropathy in SHR. Histological examination showed that losartan could prevent tubular atrophy, interstitial infiltration and fibrosis in ADR nephropathy. CONCLUSION: Losartan reduces the rate of progression of ADR-induced focal segmental glomerulosclerosis to end-stage renal disease in SHR.","[{'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 23, 'end': 33, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 34, 'end': 45, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 63, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 92, 'end': 100, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'angiotensin II', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 186, 'end': 200, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 226, 'end': 234, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 270, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'hypertensive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 313, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D006973'}, {'text': 'adriamycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 342, 'end': 352, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 354, 'end': 357, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 359, 'end': 370, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 504, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 512, 'end': 515, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'LOS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 516, 'end': 519, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 527, 'end': 530, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 540, 'end': 543, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'LOS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 544, 'end': 547, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 564, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 619, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'LOS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 626, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 639, 'end': 647, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 701, 'end': 704, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'LOS', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 705, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 752, 'end': 755, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1020, 'end': 1028, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1125, 'end': 1143, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1213, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1242, 'end': 1260, 'mesh': 'D005921'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1308, 'end': 1315, 'mesh': 'D001284'}, {'text': 'interstitial fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1320, 'end': 1341, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'proteinuria', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1365, 'end': 1376, 'mesh': 'D011507'}, {'text': 'chronic renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1381, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D007676'}, {'text': 'Losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1404, 'end': 1412, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'uraemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1421, 'end': 1428, 'mesh': 'D014511'}, {'text': 'urea', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1443, 'end': 1447, 'mesh': 'D014508'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1470, 'end': 1473, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1474, 'end': 1485, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1531, 'end': 1539, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'atrophy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1562, 'end': 1569, 'mesh': 'D001284'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1601, 'end': 1609, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1613, 'end': 1616, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1617, 'end': 1628, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Losartan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1642, 'end': 1650, 'mesh': 'D019808'}, {'text': 'ADR', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1686, 'end': 1689, 'mesh': 'D004317'}, {'text': 'focal segmental glomerulosclerosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1698, 'end': 1732, 'mesh': 'D005923'}, {'text': 'end-stage renal disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1736, 'end': 1759, 'mesh': 'D007676'}]" +1457,19020118,The risks of aprotinin and tranexamic acid in cardiac surgery: a one-year follow-up of 1188 consecutive patients.,"BACKGROUND: Our aim was to investigate postoperative complications and mortality after administration of aprotinin compared to tranexamic acid in an unselected, consecutive cohort. METHODS: Perioperative data from consecutive cardiac surgery patients were prospectively collected between September 2005 and June 2006 in a university-affiliated clinic (n = 1188). During the first 5 mo, 596 patients received aprotinin (Group A); in the next 5 mo, 592 patients were treated with tranexamic acid (Group T). Except for antifibrinolytic therapy, the anesthetic and surgical protocols remained unchanged. RESULTS: The pre- and intraoperative variables were comparable between the treatment groups. Postoperatively, a significantly higher incidence of seizures was found in Group T (4.6% vs 1.2%, P < 0.001). This difference was also significant in the primary valve surgery and the high risk surgery subgroups (7.9% vs 1.2%, P = 0.003; 7.3% vs 2.4%, P = 0.035, respectively). Persistent atrial fibrillation (7.9% vs 2.3%, P = 0.020) and renal failure (9.7% vs 1.7%, P = 0.002) were also more common in Group T, in the primary valve surgery subgroup. On the contrary, among primary coronary artery bypass surgery patients, there were more acute myocardial infarctions and renal dysfunction in Group A (5.8% vs 2.0%, P = 0.027; 22.5% vs 15.2%, P = 0.036, respectively). The 1-yr mortality was significantly higher after aprotinin treatment in the high risk surgery group (17.7% vs 9.8%, P = 0.034). CONCLUSION: Both antifibrinolytic drugs bear the risk of adverse outcome depending on the type of cardiac surgery. Administration of aprotinin should be avoided in coronary artery bypass graft and high risk patients, whereas administration of tranexamic acid is not recommended in valve surgery.","[{'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 42, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 241, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D014148'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 860, 'end': 868, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1146, 'end': 1159, 'mesh': 'D051437'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarctions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1353, 'end': 1375, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1380, 'end': 1397, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'tranexamic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1849, 'end': 1864, 'mesh': 'D014148'}]" +1458,19108278,The biological properties of the optical isomers of propranolol and their effects on cardiac arrhythmias.,"1. The optical isomers of propranolol have been compared for their beta-blocking and antiarrhythmic activities.2. In blocking the positive inotropic and chronotropic responses to isoprenaline, (+)-propranolol had less than one hundredth the potency of (-)-propranolol. At dose levels of (+)-propranolol which attenuated the responses to isoprenaline, there was a significant prolongation of the PR interval of the electrocardiogram.3. The metabolic responses to isoprenaline in dogs (an increase in circulating glucose, lactate and free fatty acids) were all blocked by (-)-propranolol. (+)-Propranolol had no effect on fatty acid mobilization but significantly reduced the increments in both lactate and glucose.4. Both isomers of propranolol possessed similar depressant potency on isolated atrial muscle taken from guinea-pigs.5. The isomers of propranolol exhibited similar local anaesthetic potencies on an isolated frog nerve preparation at a level approximately three times that of procaine. The racemic compound was significantly less potent than either isomer.6. Both isomers of propranolol were capable of preventing adrenaline-induced cardiac arrhythmias in cats anaesthetized with halothane, but the mean dose of (-)-propranolol was 0.09+/-0.02 mg/kg whereas that of (+)-propranolol was 4.2+/-1.2 mg/kg. At the effective dose level of (+)-propranolol there was a significant prolongation of the PR interval of the electrocardiogram. Blockade of arrhythmias with both isomers was surmountable by increasing the dose of adrenaline.7. Both isomers of propranolol were also capable of reversing ventricular tachycardia caused by ouabain in anaesthetized cats and dogs. The dose of (-)-propranolol was significantly smaller than that of (+)-propranolol in both species but much higher than that required to produce evidence of beta-blockade.8. The implications of these results are discussed.","[{'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 52, 'end': 63, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'cardiac arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 85, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 132, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'isoprenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 285, 'end': 297, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 303, 'end': 314, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 362, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 397, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'isoprenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 443, 'end': 455, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'isoprenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 580, 'mesh': 'D007545'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 617, 'end': 624, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'lactate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 626, 'end': 633, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'fatty acids', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 643, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D005227'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 680, 'end': 691, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'Propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 697, 'end': 708, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'fatty acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 726, 'end': 736, 'mesh': 'D005227'}, {'text': 'lactate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D019344'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 811, 'end': 818, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 838, 'end': 849, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 954, 'end': 965, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'procaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1103, 'mesh': 'D011343'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1194, 'end': 1205, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1233, 'end': 1243, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'cardiac arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1271, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'halothane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1299, 'end': 1308, 'mesh': 'D006221'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1346, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1389, 'end': 1400, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1457, 'end': 1468, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'arrhythmias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1574, 'mesh': 'D001145'}, {'text': 'adrenaline', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1636, 'end': 1646, 'mesh': 'D004837'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1666, 'end': 1677, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'ventricular tachycardia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1709, 'end': 1732, 'mesh': 'D017180'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1743, 'end': 1750, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1799, 'end': 1810, 'mesh': 'D011433'}, {'text': 'propranolol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1854, 'end': 1865, 'mesh': 'D011433'}]" +1459,19139825,Topotecan in combination with radiotherapy in unresectable glioblastoma: a phase 2 study.,"Improving glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) treatment with radio-chemotherapy remains a challenge.

The present case suggests that obesity, hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, and long-term treatment with VPA may be all associated with the development of NAFLD; this side effect is reversible after VPA withdrawal.","[{'text': 'Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D065626'}, {'text': 'valproate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 40, 'end': 49, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'Valproic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 59, 'end': 72, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 74, 'end': 77, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 127, 'end': 135, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'nonalcoholic fatty liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 220, 'end': 252, 'mesh': 'D065626'}, {'text': 'NAFLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 254, 'end': 259, 'mesh': 'D065626'}, {'text': 'obesity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 294, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 309, 'end': 312, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'hyperinsulinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 349, 'end': 365, 'mesh': 'D006946'}, {'text': 'insulin resistance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 371, 'end': 389, 'mesh': 'D007333'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 415, 'end': 418, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'weight loss', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 461, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D015431'}, {'text': 'obesity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 660, 'end': 667, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'hyperinsulinemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D006946'}, {'text': 'insulin resistance', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 687, 'end': 705, 'mesh': 'D007333'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 736, 'end': 739, 'mesh': 'D014635'}, {'text': 'NAFLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 786, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D065626'}, {'text': 'VPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D014635'}]" +1463,19263707,Carbimazole induced ANCA positive vasculitis.,"Anti-thyroid drugs, like carbimazole and propylthiouracil (PTU) are commonly prescribed for the treatment of hyperthyroidism. One should be aware of the side effects of antithyroid medications. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)--associated vasculitis is a potentially life-threatening adverse effect of antithyroidmedications. We report a patient with Graves' disease who developed ANCA positive carbimazole induced vasculitis. The episode was characterized by a vasculitic skin rash associated with large joint arthritis, pyrexia and parotiditis but no renal or pulmonary involvement. He was referred to us for neurological evaluation because he had difficulty in getting up from squatting position and was suspected to have myositis.

In 2002, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) strongly recommended that clinicians discuss aspirin with adults who are at increased risk for coronary heart disease. PURPOSE: To determine the benefits and harms of taking aspirin for the primary prevention of myocardial infarctions, strokes, and death. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE and Cochrane Library (search dates, 1 January 2001 to 28 August 2008), recent systematic reviews, reference lists of retrieved articles, and suggestions from experts. STUDY SELECTION: English-language randomized, controlled trials (RCTs); case-control studies; meta-analyses; and systematic reviews of aspirin versus control for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) were selected to answer the following questions: Does aspirin decrease coronary heart events, strokes, death from coronary heart events or stroke, or all-cause mortality in adults without known CVD? Does aspirin increase gastrointestinal bleeding or hemorrhagic strokes? DATA EXTRACTION: All studies were reviewed, abstracted, and rated for quality by using predefined USPSTF criteria. DATA SYNTHESIS: New evidence from 1 good-quality RCT, 1 good-quality meta-analysis, and 2 fair-quality subanalyses of RCTs demonstrates that aspirin use reduces the number of CVD events in patients without known CVD. Men in these studies experienced fewer myocardial infarctions and women experienced fewer ischemic strokes. Aspirin does not seem to affect CVD mortality or all-cause mortality in either men or women. The use of aspirin for primary prevention increases the risk for major bleeding events, primarily gastrointestinal bleeding events, in both men and women. Men have an increased risk for hemorrhagic strokes with aspirin use. A new RCT and meta-analysis suggest that the risk for hemorrhagic strokes in women is not statistically significantly increased. LIMITATIONS: New evidence on aspirin for the primary prevention of CVD is limited. The dose of aspirin used in the RCTs varied, which prevented the estimation of the most appropriate dose for primary prevention. Several of the RCTs were conducted within populations of health professionals, which potentially limits generalizability. CONCLUSION: Aspirin reduces the risk for myocardial infarction in men and strokes in women. Aspirin use increases the risk for serious bleeding events.","[{'text': 'Aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'Coronary heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 144, 'end': 166, 'mesh': 'D003327'}, {'text': 'cerebrovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 171, 'end': 194, 'mesh': 'D002561'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 348, 'end': 355, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'coronary heart disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 398, 'end': 420, 'mesh': 'D003327'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 477, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarctions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 515, 'end': 537, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'strokes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 539, 'end': 546, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 883, 'end': 890, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'cardiovascular disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 936, 'end': 958, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'CVD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 960, 'end': 963, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1019, 'end': 1026, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'strokes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1059, 'end': 1066, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'stroke', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1104, 'end': 1110, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'CVD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1159, 'end': 1162, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1169, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'gastrointestinal bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1186, 'end': 1211, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1492, 'end': 1499, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'CVD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1529, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'CVD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1566, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarctions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1607, 'end': 1629, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'strokes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1667, 'end': 1674, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'Aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1676, 'end': 1683, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'CVD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1708, 'end': 1711, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1780, 'end': 1787, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1840, 'end': 1848, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'gastrointestinal bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1867, 'end': 1892, 'mesh': 'D006471'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1980, 'end': 1987, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2151, 'end': 2158, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'CVD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2189, 'end': 2192, 'mesh': 'D002318'}, {'text': 'aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2217, 'end': 2224, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'Aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2468, 'end': 2475, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2497, 'end': 2518, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'strokes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2530, 'end': 2537, 'mesh': 'D020521'}, {'text': 'Aspirin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2548, 'end': 2555, 'mesh': 'D001241'}, {'text': 'bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2591, 'end': 2599, 'mesh': 'D006470'}]" +1465,19338378,Reducing harm associated with anticoagulation: practical considerations of argatroban therapy in heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.,"Argatroban is a hepatically metabolized, direct thrombin inhibitor used for prophylaxis or treatment of thrombosis in heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) and for patients with or at risk of HIT undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The objective of this review is to summarize practical considerations of argatroban therapy in HIT. The US FDA-recommended argatroban dose in HIT is 2 microg/kg/min (reduced in patients with hepatic impairment and in paediatric patients), adjusted to achieve activated partial thromboplastin times (aPTTs) 1.5-3 times baseline (not >100 seconds). Contemporary experiences indicate that reduced doses are also needed in patients with conditions associated with hepatic hypoperfusion, e.g. heart failure, yet are unnecessary for renal dysfunction, adult age, sex, race/ethnicity or obesity. Argatroban 0.5-1.2 microg/kg/min typically supports therapeutic aPTTs. The FDA-recommended dose during PCI is 25 microg/kg/min (350 microg/kg initial bolus), adjusted to achieve activated clotting times (ACTs) of 300-450 sec. For PCI, argatroban has not been investigated in hepatically impaired patients; dose adjustment is unnecessary for adult age, sex, race/ethnicity or obesity, and lesser doses may be adequate with concurrent glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibition. Argatroban prolongs the International Normalized Ratio, and published approaches for monitoring the argatroban-to-warfarin transition should be followed. Major bleeding with argatroban is 0-10% in the non-interventional setting and 0-5.8% periprocedurally. Argatroban has no specific antidote, and if excessive anticoagulation occurs, argatroban infusion should be stopped or reduced. Improved familiarity of healthcare professionals with argatroban therapy in HIT, including in special populations and during PCI, may facilitate reduction of harm associated with HIT (e.g. fewer thromboses) or its treatment (e.g. fewer argatroban medication errors).","[{'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 75, 'end': 85, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 97, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 113, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'Argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 131, 'end': 141, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 235, 'end': 245, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 249, 'end': 256, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 281, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 283, 'end': 286, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 324, 'end': 327, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 454, 'end': 464, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 476, 'end': 479, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 504, 'end': 514, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 523, 'end': 526, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'hepatic impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 572, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'heart failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 869, 'end': 882, 'mesh': 'D006333'}, {'text': 'renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 908, 'end': 925, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'obesity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 961, 'end': 968, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'Argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 970, 'end': 980, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1205, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'obesity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1345, 'end': 1352, 'mesh': 'D009765'}, {'text': 'Argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1437, 'end': 1447, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1537, 'end': 1547, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1559, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'bleeding', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1597, 'end': 1605, 'mesh': 'D006470'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1611, 'end': 1621, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'Argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1694, 'end': 1704, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1772, 'end': 1782, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1876, 'end': 1886, 'mesh': 'C031942'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1898, 'end': 1901, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2001, 'end': 2004, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'argatroban', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2058, 'end': 2068, 'mesh': 'C031942'}]" +1466,19392810,Rhabdomyolysis and brain ischemic stroke in a heroin-dependent male under methadone maintenance therapy.,"OBJECTIVE: There are several complications associated with heroin abuse, some of which are life-threatening.

A lesion induced by 6-OHDA produced more severe motor deterioration in CB1 KO mice accompanied by more loss of DA neurons and increased PENK gene expression in the CPu. Oxidative/nitrosative and neuroinflammatory parameters were estimated in the CPu and cingulate cortex (Cg). CB1 KO mice exhibited higher MDA levels and iNOS protein expression in the CPu and Cg compared to WT mice. Treatment with L-DOPA+benserazide (12 weeks) resulted in less severe dyskinesias in CB1 KO than in WT mice. The results revealed that the lack of cannabinoid CB1 receptors increased the severity of motor impairment and DA lesion, and reduced L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias. These results suggest that activation of CB1 receptors offers neuroprotection against dopaminergic lesion and the development of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias.","[{'text': '6-hydroxydopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 44, 'mesh': 'D016627'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 79, 'end': 90, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 152, 'end': 160, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 162, 'end': 164, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'proenkephalin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 188, 'end': 201, 'mesh': 'C029992'}, {'text': 'PENK', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 203, 'end': 207, 'mesh': 'C029992'}, {'text': '6-OHDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 271, 'end': 277, 'mesh': 'D016627'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA+benserazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 300, 'end': 318, 'mesh': 'C005177'}, {'text': '6-OHDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 360, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D016627'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 451, 'end': 453, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'PENK', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 476, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'C029992'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 646, 'end': 649, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA+benserazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 739, 'end': 757, 'mesh': 'C005177'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 793, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'DA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 943, 'end': 945, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 966, 'end': 972, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 981, 'end': 992, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'L-DOPA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1123, 'end': 1129, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesias', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1138, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D004409'}]" +1468,19447152,Animal model of mania induced by ouabain: Evidence of oxidative stress in submitochondrial particles of the rat brain.,"The intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of ouabain (a Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase inhibitor) in rats has been suggested to mimic some symptoms of human bipolar mania. Clinical studies have shown that bipolar disorder may be related to mitochondrial dysfunction. Herein, we investigated the behavioral and biochemical effects induced by the ICV administration of ouabain in rats. To achieve this aim, the effects of ouabain injection immediately after and 7 days following a single ICV administration (at concentrations of 10(-2) and 10(-3)M) on locomotion was measured using the open-field test. Additionally, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARSs) and superoxide production were measured in submitochondrial particles of the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, striatum and amygdala. Our findings demonstrated that ouabain at 10(-2) and 10(-3)M induced hyperlocomotion in rats, and this response remained up to 7 days following a single ICV injection. In addition, we observed that the persistent increase in the rat spontaneous locomotion is associated with increased TBARS levels and superoxide generation in submitochondrial particles in the prefrontal cortex, striatum and amygdala. In conclusion, ouabain-induced mania-like behavior may provide a useful animal model to test the hypothesis of the involvement of oxidative stress in bipolar disorder.","[{'text': 'mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 40, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 171, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'Na', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 182, 'end': 184, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'K', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 188, 'end': 189, 'mesh': 'D011188'}, {'text': 'bipolar mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 270, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 318, 'end': 334, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 353, 'end': 378, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 480, 'end': 487, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 533, 'end': 540, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'thiobarbituric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 728, 'end': 747, 'mesh': 'C029684'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 781, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 940, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'hyperlocomotion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 978, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'D009069'}, {'text': 'superoxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1211, 'end': 1221, 'mesh': 'D013481'}, {'text': 'ouabain', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1327, 'end': 1334, 'mesh': 'D010042'}, {'text': 'mania', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1343, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D001714'}, {'text': 'bipolar disorder', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1462, 'end': 1478, 'mesh': 'D001714'}]" +1469,19515070,Intraoperative dialysis during liver transplantation with citrate dialysate.,"Liver transplantation for acutely ill patients with fulminant liver failure carries high intraoperative and immediate postoperative risks. These are increased with the presence of concomitant acute kidney injury (AKI) and intraoperative dialysis is sometimes required to allow the transplant to proceed. The derangements in the procoagulant and anticoagulant pathways during fulminant liver failure can lead to difficulties with anticoagulation during dialysis, especially when continued in the operating room. Systemic anticoagulation is unsafe and regional citrate anticoagulation in the absence of a functional liver carries the risk of citrate toxicity. Citrate dialysate, a new dialysate with citric acid can be used for anticoagulation in patients who cannot tolerate heparin or regional citrate. We report a case of a 40-year-old female with acetaminophen-induced fulminant liver failure with associated AKI who underwent intraoperative dialytic support during liver transplantation anticoagulated with citrate dialysate during the entire procedure. The patient tolerated the procedure well without any signs of citrate toxicity and maintained adequate anticoagulation for patency of the dialysis circuit. Citrate dialysate is a safe alternative for intradialytic support of liver transplantation in fulminant liver failure.","[{'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 58, 'end': 65, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'fulminant liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 129, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acute kidney injury', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 269, 'end': 288, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'AKI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 290, 'end': 293, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'fulminant liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 452, 'end': 475, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 636, 'end': 643, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 717, 'end': 724, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 725, 'end': 733, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'citric acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 775, 'end': 786, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 851, 'end': 858, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 871, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 926, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'fulminant liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 948, 'end': 971, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'AKI', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 988, 'end': 991, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1087, 'end': 1094, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1196, 'end': 1203, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1204, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'Citrate', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1290, 'end': 1297, 'mesh': 'D019343'}, {'text': 'fulminant liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1384, 'end': 1407, 'mesh': 'D017114'}]" +1470,19531695,Delirium in a patient with toxic flecainide plasma concentrations: the role of a pharmacokinetic drug interaction with paroxetine.,"OBJECTIVE: To describe a case of flecainide-induced delirium associated with a pharmacokinetic drug interaction with paroxetine. CASE SUMMARY: A 69-year-old white female presented to the emergency department with a history of confusion and paranoia over the past several days. On admission the patient was taking carvedilol 12 mg twice daily, warfarin 2 mg/day, folic acid 1 mg/day, levothyroxine 100 microg/day, pantoprazole 40 mg/day, paroxetine 40 mg/day, and flecainide 100 mg twice daily. Flecainide had been started 2 weeks prior for atrial fibrillation. Laboratory test findings on admission were notable only for a flecainide plasma concentration of 1360 microg/L (reference range 200-1000). A metabolic drug interaction between flecainide and paroxetine, which the patient had been taking for more than 5 years, was considered. Paroxetine was discontinued and the dose of flecainide was reduced to 50 mg twice daily. Her delirium resolved 3 days later. DISCUSSION: Flecainide and pharmacologically similar agents that interact with sodium channels may cause delirium in susceptible patients. A MEDLINE search (1966-January 2009) revealed one in vivo pharmacokinetic study on the interaction between flecainide, a CYP2D6 substrate, and paroxetine, a CYP2D6 inhibitor, as well as 3 case reports of flecainide-induced delirium. According to the Naranjo probability scale, flecainide was the probable cause of the patient's delirium; the Horn Drug Interaction Probability Scale indicates a possible pharmacokinetic drug interaction between flecainide and paroxetine. CONCLUSIONS: Supratherapeutic flecainide plasma concentrations may cause delirium. Because toxicity may occur when flecainide is prescribed with paroxetine and other potent CYP2D6 inhibitors, flecainide plasma concentrations should be monitored closely with commencement of CYP2D6 inhibitors.","[{'text': 'Delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 8, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 33, 'end': 43, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 119, 'end': 129, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 164, 'end': 174, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 183, 'end': 191, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 248, 'end': 258, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'confusion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 357, 'end': 366, 'mesh': 'D003221'}, {'text': 'paranoia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 371, 'end': 379, 'mesh': 'D010259'}, {'text': 'carvedilol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 444, 'end': 454, 'mesh': 'C043211'}, {'text': 'warfarin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 474, 'end': 482, 'mesh': 'D014859'}, {'text': 'folic acid', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 493, 'end': 503, 'mesh': 'D005492'}, {'text': 'levothyroxine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 514, 'end': 527, 'mesh': 'D013974'}, {'text': 'pantoprazole', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 544, 'end': 556, 'mesh': 'C064276'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 568, 'end': 578, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 594, 'end': 604, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'Flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 625, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'atrial fibrillation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 671, 'end': 690, 'mesh': 'D001281'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 754, 'end': 764, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 868, 'end': 878, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 883, 'end': 893, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'Paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 968, 'end': 978, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1012, 'end': 1022, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1061, 'end': 1069, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'Flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1105, 'end': 1115, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1172, 'end': 1178, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1198, 'end': 1206, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1339, 'end': 1349, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1385, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1436, 'end': 1446, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1463, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1509, 'end': 1519, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1560, 'end': 1568, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1676, 'end': 1686, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1691, 'end': 1701, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1733, 'end': 1743, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'delirium', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1776, 'end': 1784, 'mesh': 'D003693'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1794, 'end': 1802, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1818, 'end': 1828, 'mesh': 'D005424'}, {'text': 'paroxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1848, 'end': 1858, 'mesh': 'D017374'}, {'text': 'flecainide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1895, 'end': 1905, 'mesh': 'D005424'}]" +1471,19549709,Efficacy of everolimus (RAD001) in patients with advanced NSCLC previously treated with chemotherapy alone or with chemotherapy and EGFR inhibitors.,"BACKGROUND: Treatment options are scarce in pretreated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. RAD001, an oral inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), has shown phase I efficacy in NSCLC. METHODS: Stage IIIb or IV NSCLC patients, with two or fewer prior chemotherapy regimens, one platinum based (stratum 1) or both chemotherapy and epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (stratum 2), received RAD001 10 mg/day until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Primary objective was overall response rate (ORR). Analyses of markers associated with the mTOR pathway were carried out on archival tumor from a subgroup using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and direct mutation sequencing. RESULTS: Eighty-five patients were enrolled, 42 in stratum 1 and 43 in stratum. ORR was 4.7% (7.1% stratum 1; 2.3% stratum 2). Overall disease control rate was 47.1%. Median progression-free survivals (PFSs) were 2.6 (stratum 1) and 2.7 months (stratum 2). Common > or =grade 3 events were fatigue, dyspnea, stomatitis, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. Pneumonitis, probably or possibly related, mainly grade 1/2, occurred in 25%. Cox regression analysis of IHC scores found that only phospho AKT (pAKT) was a significant independent predictor of worse PFS.

In patients without cocaine use, coronary computerized tomography angiography (CTA) has been shown to be useful for identifying a group of patients at low risk for cardiac events who can be safely discharged. It is unclear whether a coronary CTA strategy would be efficacious in cocaine-associated chest pain, as coronary vasospasm may account for some of the ischemia. We studied whether a negative coronary CTA in patients with cocaine-associated chest pain could identify a subset safe for discharge. METHODS: We prospectively evaluated the safety of coronary CTA for low-risk patients who presented to the ED with cocaineassociated chest pain (self-reported or positive urine test). Consecutive patients received either immediate coronary CTA in the ED (without serial markers) or underwent coronary CTA after a brief observation period with serial cardiac marker measurements. Patients with negative coronary CTA (maximal stenosis less than 50%) were discharged. The main outcome was 30-day cardiovascular death or myocardial infarction. RESULTS: A total of 59 patients with cocaine-associated chest pain were evaluated. Patients had a mean age of 45.6 +/- 6.6 yrs and were 86% black, 66% male. Seventy-nine percent had a normal or nonspecific ECG and 85% had a TIMI score <2. Twenty patients received coronary CTA immediately in the ED, 18 of whom were discharged following CTA (90%). Thirty-nine received coronary CTA after a brief observation period, with 37 discharged home following CTA (95%). Six patients had coronary stenosis >or=50%. During the 30-day follow-up period, no patients died of a cardiovascular event (0%; 95% CI, 0-6.1%) and no patient sustained a nonfatal myocardial infarction (0%; 95% CI, 0-6.1%). CONCLUSIONS: Although cocaine-associated myocardial ischemia can result from coronary vasoconstriction, patients with cocaine associated chest pain, a non-ischemic ECG, and a TIMI risk score <2 may be safely discharged from the ED after a negative coronary CTA with a low risk of 30-day adverse events.","[{'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 91, 'end': 98, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 110, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 195, 'end': 202, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 214, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'acute coronary syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 284, 'end': 307, 'mesh': 'D054058'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 390, 'end': 397, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 649, 'end': 656, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 668, 'end': 678, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'coronary vasospasm', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 683, 'end': 701, 'mesh': 'D003329'}, {'text': 'ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 730, 'end': 738, 'mesh': 'D007511'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 800, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 819, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1016, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1297, 'end': 1305, 'mesh': 'D003251'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1411, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1450, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1469, 'end': 1479, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'coronary stenosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1891, 'end': 1908, 'mesh': 'D023921'}, {'text': 'myocardial infarction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2054, 'end': 2075, 'mesh': 'D009203'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2120, 'end': 2127, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'myocardial ischemia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2139, 'end': 2158, 'mesh': 'D017202'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2216, 'end': 2223, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'chest pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2235, 'end': 2245, 'mesh': 'D002637'}, {'text': 'ischemic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2253, 'end': 2261, 'mesh': 'D007511'}]" +1474,19715529,Late fulminant posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome after liver transplant.,"OBJECTIVES: Posterior leukoencephalopathy due to calcineurin-inhibitor-related neurotoxicity is a rare but severe complication that results from treatment with immunosuppressive agents (primarily those administered after a liver or kidney transplant). The pathophysiologic mechanisms of that disorder remain unknown. CASE: We report the case of a 46-year-old woman who received a liver transplant in our center as treatment for alcoholic cirrhosis and in whom either a fulminant course of posterior leukoencephalopathy or posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome developed 110 days after transplant. After an initially uneventful course after the transplant, the patient rapidly fell into deep coma. RESULTS: Cerebral MRI scan showed typical signs of enhancement in the pontine and posterior regions. Switching the immunosuppressive regimen from tacrolimus to cyclosporine did not improve the clinical situation. The termination of treatment with any calcineurin inhibitor resulted in a complete resolution of that complication. CONCLUSIONS: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome after liver transplant is rare. We recommend a complete cessation of any calcineurin inhibitor rather than a dose reduction.","[{'text': 'posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 15, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D054038'}, {'text': 'Posterior leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 96, 'end': 125, 'mesh': 'D054038'}, {'text': 'neurotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 163, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D020258'}, {'text': 'alcoholic cirrhosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 512, 'end': 531, 'mesh': 'D008104'}, {'text': 'posterior leukoencephalopathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 573, 'end': 602, 'mesh': 'D054038'}, {'text': 'posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 606, 'end': 650, 'mesh': 'D054038'}, {'text': 'tacrolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 934, 'end': 944, 'mesh': 'D016559'}, {'text': 'cyclosporine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 948, 'end': 960, 'mesh': 'D016572'}, {'text': 'Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1130, 'end': 1174, 'mesh': 'D054038'}]" +1475,19728177,Prolonged hypothermia as a bridge to recovery for cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension associated with fulminant hepatic failure.,"BACKGROUND: To review evidence-based treatment options in patients with cerebral edema complicating fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) and discuss the potential applications of hypothermia. METHOD: Case-based observations from a medical intensive care unit (MICU) in a tertiary care facility in a 27-year-old female with FHF from acetaminophen and resultant cerebral edema. RESULTS: Our patient was admitted to the MICU after being found unresponsive with presumed toxicity from acetaminophen which was ingested over a 2-day period. The patient had depressed of mental status lasting at least 24 h prior to admission. Initial evaluation confirmed FHF from acetaminophen and cerebral edema. The patient was treated with hyperosmolar therapy, hyperventilation, sedation, and chemical paralysis. Her intracranial pressure remained elevated despite maximal medical therapy. We then initiated therapeutic hypothermia which was continued for 5 days. At re-warming, patient had resolution of her cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension. At discharge, she had complete recovery of neurological and hepatic functions. CONCLUSION: In patients with FHF and cerebral edema from acetaminophen overdose, prolonged therapeutic hypothermia could potentially be used as a life saving therapy and a bridge to hepatic and neurological recovery. A clinical trial of hypothermia in patients with this condition is warranted.","[{'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 10, 'end': 21, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': 'cerebral edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 50, 'end': 64, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'intracranial hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 94, 'mesh': 'D019586'}, {'text': 'fulminant hepatic failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 111, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'cerebral edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 210, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'fulminant hepatic failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 238, 'end': 263, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'FHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 265, 'end': 268, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 312, 'end': 323, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': 'FHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 456, 'end': 459, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 465, 'end': 478, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'cerebral edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 493, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 600, 'end': 608, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 614, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'FHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 782, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 791, 'end': 804, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'cerebral edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 809, 'end': 823, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'hyperventilation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 876, 'end': 892, 'mesh': 'D006985'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 917, 'end': 926, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1035, 'end': 1046, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': 'cerebral edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1124, 'end': 1138, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'intracranial hypertension', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1143, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D019586'}, {'text': 'FHF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1278, 'end': 1281, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'cerebral edema', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1286, 'end': 1300, 'mesh': 'D001929'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1306, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'overdose', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1320, 'end': 1328, 'mesh': 'D062787'}, {'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1352, 'end': 1363, 'mesh': 'D007035'}, {'text': 'hypothermia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1486, 'end': 1497, 'mesh': 'D007035'}]" +1476,19815465,Binasal visual field defects are not specific to vigabatrin.,"This study investigated the visual defects associated with the antiepileptic drug vigabatrin (VGB).

Groups were matched with respect to age, gender, and seizure frequency. All patients underwent objective assessment of electrophysiological function (wide-field multifocal electroretinography) and conventional visual field testing (static perimetry). Bilateral visual field constriction was observed in 59% of patients currently taking VGB, 43% of patients who previously took VGB, and 24% of patients with no exposure to VGB. Assessment of retinal function revealed abnormal responses in 48% of current VGB users and 22% of prior VGB users, but in none of the patients without previous exposure to VGB. Bilateral visual field abnormalities are common in the treated epilepsy population, irrespective of drug history. Assessment by conventional static perimetry may neither be sufficiently sensitive nor specific to reliably identify retinal toxicity associated with VGB.","[{'text': 'Binasal visual field defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 28, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 49, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'visual defects', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 103, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'vigabatrin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 143, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 155, 'end': 158, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 190, 'end': 198, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 293, 'end': 296, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'seizure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 352, 'end': 359, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 635, 'end': 638, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 676, 'end': 679, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 721, 'end': 724, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 803, 'end': 806, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 830, 'end': 833, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 898, 'end': 901, 'mesh': 'D020888'}, {'text': 'Bilateral visual field abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 903, 'end': 939, 'mesh': 'D014786'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 966, 'end': 974, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'retinal toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1133, 'end': 1149, 'mesh': 'D012164'}, {'text': 'VGB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1169, 'mesh': 'D020888'}]" +1477,19841052,Smoking of crack cocaine as a risk factor for HIV infection among people who use injection drugs.,"BACKGROUND: Little is known about the possible role that smoking crack cocaine has on the incidence of HIV infection. Given the increasing use of crack cocaine, we sought to examine whether use of this illicit drug has become a risk factor for HIV infection. METHODS: We included data from people participating in the Vancouver Injection Drug Users Study who reported injecting illicit drugs at least once in the month before enrolment, lived in the greater Vancouver area, were HIV-negative at enrolment and completed at least 1 follow-up study visit. To determine whether the risk of HIV seroconversion among daily smokers of crack cocaine changed over time, we used Cox proportional hazards regression and divided the study into 3 periods: May 1, 1996-Nov. 30, 1999 (period 1), Dec. 1, 1999-Nov. 30, 2002 (period 2), and Dec. 1, 2002-Dec. 30, 2005 (period 3). RESULTS: Overall, 1048 eligible injection drug users were included in our study. Of these, 137 acquired HIV infection during follow-up. The mean proportion of participants who reported daily smoking of crack cocaine increased from 11.6% in period 1 to 39.7% in period 3. After adjusting for potential confounders, we found that the risk of HIV seroconversion among participants who were daily smokers of crack cocaine increased over time (period 1: hazard ratio [HR] 1.03, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.57-1.85; period 2: HR 1.68, 95% CI 1.01-2.80; and period 3: HR 2.74, 95% CI 1.06-7.11). INTERPRETATION: Smoking of crack cocaine was found to be an independent risk factor for HIV seroconversion among people who were injection drug users. This finding points to the urgent need for evidence-based public health initiatives targeted at people who smoke crack cocaine.","[{'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 11, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D016578'}, {'text': 'HIV infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 46, 'end': 59, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 163, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D016578'}, {'text': 'HIV infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 201, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 244, 'end': 257, 'mesh': 'D016578'}, {'text': 'HIV infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 342, 'end': 355, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'HIV seroconversion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 684, 'end': 702, 'mesh': 'D006679'}, {'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 726, 'end': 739, 'mesh': 'D016578'}, {'text': 'HIV infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1163, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D016578'}, {'text': 'HIV seroconversion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1301, 'end': 1319, 'mesh': 'D006679'}, {'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1365, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D016578'}, {'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1580, 'end': 1593, 'mesh': 'D016578'}, {'text': 'HIV seroconversion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1641, 'end': 1659, 'mesh': 'D006679'}, {'text': 'crack cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1817, 'end': 1830, 'mesh': 'D016578'}]" +1478,19914299,Fluoxetine improves the memory deficits caused by the chemotherapy agent 5-fluorouracil.,"Cancer patients who have been treated with systemic adjuvant chemotherapy have described experiencing deteriorations in cognition. A widely used chemotherapeutic agent, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and so could have a direct effect on brain function. In particular this anti mitotic drug could reduce cell proliferation in the neurogenic regions of the adult brain. In contrast reports indicate that hippocampal dependent neurogenesis and cognition are enhanced by the SSRI antidepressant Fluoxetine. In this investigation the behavioural effects of chronic (two week) treatment with 5-FU and (three weeks) with Fluoxetine either separately or in combination with 5-FU were tested on adult Lister hooded rats. Behavioural effects were tested using a context dependent conditioned emotional response test (CER) which showed that animals treated with 5-FU had a significant reduction in freezing time compared to controls. A separate group of animals was tested using a hippocampal dependent spatial working memory test, the object location recognition test (OLR). Animals treated only with 5-FU showed significant deficits in their ability to carry out the OLR task but co administration of Fluoxetine improved their performance. 5-FU chemotherapy caused a significant reduction in the number of proliferating cells in the sub granular zone of the dentate gyrus compared to controls. This reduction was eliminated when Fluoxetine was co administered with 5-FU. Fluoxetine on its own had no effect on proliferating cell number or behaviour. These findings suggest that 5-FU can negatively affect both cell proliferation and hippocampal dependent working memory and that these deficits can be reversed by the simultaneous administration of the antidepressant Fluoxetine.","[{'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 10, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': 'memory deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 24, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 73, 'end': 87, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'Cancer', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 89, 'end': 95, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': '5-fluorouracil', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 258, 'end': 272, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 274, 'end': 278, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'SSRI', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 596, 'mesh': 'D017367'}, {'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 612, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 707, 'end': 711, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 745, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 787, 'end': 791, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 972, 'end': 976, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1212, 'end': 1216, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1313, 'end': 1323, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1352, 'end': 1356, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1541, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1577, 'end': 1581, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1583, 'end': 1593, 'mesh': 'D005473'}, {'text': '5-FU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1690, 'end': 1694, 'mesh': 'D005472'}, {'text': 'Fluoxetine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1879, 'end': 1889, 'mesh': 'D005473'}]" +1479,19920070,Liver-specific ablation of integrin-linked kinase in mice results in enhanced and prolonged cell proliferation and hepatomegaly after phenobarbital administration.,"We have recently demonstrated that disruption of extracellular matrix (ECM)/integrin signaling via elimination of integrin-linked kinase (ILK) in hepatocytes interferes with signals leading to termination of liver regeneration. This study investigates the role of ILK in liver enlargement induced by phenobarbital (PB). Wild-type (WT) and ILK:liver-/- mice were given PB (0.1% in drinking water) for 10 days. Livers were harvested on 2, 5, and 10 days during PB administration. In the hepatocyte-specific ILK/liver-/- mice, the liver:body weight ratio was more than double as compared to 0 h at day 2 (2.5 times), while at days 5 and 10, it was enlarged three times. In the WT mice, the increase was as expected from previous literature (1.8 times) and seems to have leveled off after day 2. There were slightly increased proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive cells in the ILK/liver-/- animals at day 2 as compared to WT after PB administration. In the WT animals, the proliferative response had come back to normal by days 5 and 10. Hepatocytes of the ILK/liver-/- mice continued to proliferate up until day 10. ILK/liver-/- mice also showed increased expression of key genes involved in hepatocyte proliferation at different time points during PB administration. In summary, ECM proteins communicate with the signaling machinery of dividing cells via ILK to regulate hepatocyte proliferation and termination of the proliferative response. Lack of ILK in the hepatocytes imparts prolonged proliferative response not only to stimuli related to liver regeneration but also to xenobiotic chemical mitogens, such as PB.","[{'text': 'hepatomegaly', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 115, 'end': 127, 'mesh': 'D006529'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 134, 'end': 147, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'phenobarbital', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 464, 'end': 477, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'PB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 479, 'end': 481, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'PB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 532, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'PB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 623, 'end': 625, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'PB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1097, 'end': 1099, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'PB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D010634'}, {'text': 'PB', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1783, 'end': 1785, 'mesh': 'D010634'}]" +1480,19967075,"Decreased Expression of Na/K-ATPase, NHE3, NBC1, AQP1 and OAT in Gentamicin-induced Nephropathy.","The present study was aimed to determine whether there is an altered regulation of tubular transporters in gentamicin-induced nephropathy.

The study included 871 women with HIV who were recruited from 1993-1995 in four US cities. The participants had physical examination, medical record extraction, and venipuncture, CD4+T-cell counts determination, measurement of depression symptoms (using the self-report Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale), and alcohol use assessment at enrollment, and semiannually until March 2000. Multilevel random coefficient ordinal models as well as multilevel models with joint responses were used in the analysis. There was no significant association between level of alcohol use and CD4+ T-cell counts. When participants were stratified by antiretroviral therapy (ART) use, the association between alcohol and CD4+ T-cell did not reach statistical significance. The association between alcohol consumption and depression was significant (p<0.001). Depression had a significant negative effect on CD4+ T-cell counts over time regardless of ART use. Our findings suggest that alcohol consumption has a direct association with depression. Moreover, depression is associated with HIV disease progression. Our findings have implications for the provision of alcohol use interventions and psychological resources to improve the health of women with HIV.","[{'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 28, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'HIV disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 56, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 145, 'end': 152, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 169, 'end': 179, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'HIV disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 202, 'end': 213, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 475, 'end': 485, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'Depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 553, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 576, 'end': 583, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 832, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 956, 'end': 963, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1044, 'end': 1051, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1068, 'end': 1078, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'Depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1106, 'end': 1116, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1232, 'end': 1239, 'mesh': 'D000431'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1282, 'end': 1292, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'depression', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1304, 'end': 1314, 'mesh': 'D003866'}, {'text': 'HIV disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1334, 'end': 1345, 'mesh': 'D015658'}, {'text': 'alcohol', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1411, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D000431'}]" +1482,20034406,Chemokine CCL2 and its receptor CCR2 are increased in the hippocampus following pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus.,"BACKGROUND: Neuroinflammation occurs after seizures and is implicated in epileptogenesis. CCR2 is a chemokine receptor for CCL2 and their interaction mediates monocyte infiltration in the neuroinflammatory cascade triggered in different brain pathologies. In this work CCR2 and CCL2 expression were examined following status epilepticus (SE) induced by pilocarpine injection. METHODS: SE was induced by pilocarpine injection. Control rats were injected with saline instead of pilocarpine. Five days after SE, CCR2 staining in neurons and glial cells was examined using imunohistochemical analyses. The number of CCR2 positive cells was determined using stereology probes in the hippocampus. CCL2 expression in the hippocampus was examined by molecular assay. RESULTS: Increased CCR2 was observed in the hippocampus after SE. Seizures also resulted in alterations to the cell types expressing CCR2. Increased numbers of neurons that expressed CCR2 was observed following SE. Microglial cells were more closely apposed to the CCR2-labeled cells in SE rats. In addition, rats that experienced SE exhibited CCR2-labeling in populations of hypertrophied astrocytes, especially in CA1 and dentate gyrus. These CCR2+ astroctytes were not observed in control rats. Examination of CCL2 expression showed that it was elevated in the hippocampus following SE. CONCLUSION: The data show that CCR2 and CCL2 are up-regulated in the hippocampus after pilocarpine-induced SE. Seizures also result in changes to CCR2 receptor expression in neurons and astrocytes. These changes might be involved in detrimental neuroplasticity and neuroinflammatory changes that occur following seizures.","[{'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 80, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 100, 'end': 118, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'Neuroinflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 132, 'end': 149, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 163, 'end': 171, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neuroinflammatory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 308, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'status epilepticus', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 438, 'end': 456, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 458, 'end': 460, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 473, 'end': 484, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 505, 'end': 507, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 523, 'end': 534, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 596, 'end': 607, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 625, 'end': 627, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 941, 'end': 943, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'Seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 945, 'end': 953, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1090, 'end': 1092, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1166, 'end': 1168, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1210, 'end': 1212, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'hypertrophied', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1255, 'end': 1268, 'mesh': 'D006984'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1467, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'pilocarpine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1556, 'end': 1567, 'mesh': 'D010862'}, {'text': 'SE', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1576, 'end': 1578, 'mesh': 'D013226'}, {'text': 'Seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1580, 'end': 1588, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'neuroinflammatory', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1734, 'end': 1751, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1781, 'end': 1789, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +1483,20046642,Metallothionein induction reduces caspase-3 activity and TNFalpha levels with preservation of cognitive function and intact hippocampal neurons in carmustine-treated rats.,"Hippocampal integrity is essential for cognitive functions. On the other hand, induction of metallothionein (MT) by ZnSO(4) and its role in neuroprotection has been documented. The present study aimed to explore the effect of MT induction on carmustine (BCNU)-induced hippocampal cognitive dysfunction in rats. A total of 60 male Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into four groups (15/group): The control group injected with single doses of normal saline (i.c.v) followed 24 h later by BCNU solvent (i.v). The second group administered ZnSO(4) (0.1 micromol/10 microl normal saline, i.c.v, once) then BCNU solvent (i.v) after 24 h. Third group received BCNU (20 mg/kg, i.v, once) 24 h after injection with normal saline (i.c.v). Fourth group received a single dose of ZnSO(4) (0.1 micromol/10 microl normal saline, i.c.v) then BCNU (20 mg/kg, i.v, once) after 24 h. The obtained data revealed that BCNU administration resulted in deterioration of learning and short-term memory (STM), as measured by using radial arm water maze, accompanied with decreased hippocampal glutathione reductase (GR) activity and reduced glutathione (GSH) content. Also, BCNU administration increased serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha), hippocampal MT and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents as well as caspase-3 activity in addition to histological alterations. ZnSO(4) pretreatment counteracted BCNU-induced inhibition of GR and depletion of GSH and resulted in significant reduction in the levels of MDA and TNFalpha as well as the activity of caspase-3. The histological features were improved in hippocampus of rats treated with ZnSO(4) + BCNU compared to only BCNU-treated animals. In conclusion, MT induction halts BCNU-induced hippocampal toxicity as it prevented GR inhibition and GSH depletion and counteracted the increased levels of TNFalpha, MDA and caspase-3 activity with subsequent preservation of cognition.","[{'text': 'Metallothionein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D008668'}, {'text': 'carmustine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 147, 'end': 157, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'metallothionein', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 264, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D008668'}, {'text': 'MT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 281, 'end': 283, 'mesh': 'D008668'}, {'text': 'ZnSO(4)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 288, 'end': 295, 'mesh': 'D019287'}, {'text': 'MT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 398, 'end': 400, 'mesh': 'D008668'}, {'text': 'carmustine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 414, 'end': 424, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 426, 'end': 430, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'cognitive dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 452, 'end': 473, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 665, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'ZnSO(4)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 715, 'end': 722, 'mesh': 'D019287'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 780, 'end': 784, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 832, 'end': 836, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'ZnSO(4)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 947, 'end': 954, 'mesh': 'D019287'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1006, 'end': 1010, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1077, 'end': 1081, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1247, 'end': 1258, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'glutathione', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1295, 'end': 1306, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'GSH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1308, 'end': 1311, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1328, 'end': 1332, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1364, 'end': 1369, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'necrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1370, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'MT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1416, 'end': 1418, 'mesh': 'D008668'}, {'text': 'malondialdehyde', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1423, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1440, 'end': 1443, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'ZnSO(4)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1525, 'end': 1532, 'mesh': 'D019287'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1559, 'end': 1563, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'GSH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1606, 'end': 1609, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1665, 'end': 1668, 'mesh': 'D008315'}, {'text': 'ZnSO(4)', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1796, 'end': 1803, 'mesh': 'D019287'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1806, 'end': 1810, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1828, 'end': 1832, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'MT', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1865, 'end': 1867, 'mesh': 'D008668'}, {'text': 'BCNU', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1884, 'end': 1888, 'mesh': 'D002330'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1909, 'end': 1917, 'mesh': 'D064420'}, {'text': 'GSH', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1952, 'end': 1955, 'mesh': 'D005978'}, {'text': 'MDA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 2017, 'end': 2020, 'mesh': 'D008315'}]" +1484,20129423,"Fatal carbamazepine induced fulminant eosinophilic (hypersensitivity) myocarditis: emphasis on anatomical and histological characteristics, mechanisms and genetics of drug hypersensitivity and differential diagnosis.","The most severe adverse reactions to carbamazepine have been observed in the haemopoietic system, the liver and the cardiovascular system.

These symptoms may be due to 'sensitisation' following repeated levodopa treatment or a direct effect of dopamine on the disease state. The levodopa-treated MPTP-lesioned marmoset was used as a model of neuropsychiatric symptoms in PD patients. Here we compare the time course of levodopa-induced motor fluctuations and neuropsychiatric-like behaviors to determine the relationship between duration of treatment and onset of symptoms. METHODS: Marmosets were administered 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (2.0 mg/kg s.c.) for five days, resulting in stable parkinsonism. Levodopa (15 mg/kg and benserazide, 3.75 mg/kg) p.o. b.i.d, was administered for 30 days. Animals were evaluated for parkinsonian disability, dyskinesia and on-time (motor fluctuations) and neuropsychiatric-like behaviors on Day 0 (prior to levodopa) and on Days 1, 7, 13, 27 and 30 of treatment using post hoc DVD analysis by a trained rater, blind to the treatment day. RESULTS: The neuropsychiatric-like behavior rating scale demonstrated high interrater reliability between three trained raters of differing professional backgrounds. As anticipated, animals exhibited a progressive increase in levodopa-induced motor fluctuations, dyskinesia and wearing-off, that correlated with the duration of levodopa therapy. In contrast, levodopa-induced neuropsychiatric-like behaviors were present on Day 1 of levodopa treatment and their severity did not correlate with duration of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: The data suggest that neuropsychiatric disorders in PD are more likely an interaction between levodopa and the disease state than a consequence of sensitisation to repeated dopaminergic therapy.","[{'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 34, 'end': 38, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 57, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': ""Parkinson's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 186, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 207, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 276, 'end': 284, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dopamine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 317, 'end': 325, 'mesh': 'D004298'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 352, 'end': 360, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'MPTP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 369, 'end': 373, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'neuropsychiatric symptoms', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 415, 'end': 440, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 444, 'end': 446, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 492, 'end': 500, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'neuropsychiatric-like behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 532, 'end': 563, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': '1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 684, 'end': 728, 'mesh': 'D015632'}, {'text': 'parkinsonism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 781, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'Levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 795, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'benserazide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 818, 'end': 829, 'mesh': 'D001545'}, {'text': 'parkinsonian disability', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 912, 'end': 935, 'mesh': 'D020734'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 937, 'end': 947, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'neuropsychiatric-like behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 985, 'end': 1016, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1036, 'end': 1044, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'neuropsychiatric-like behavior', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1180, 'end': 1210, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1393, 'end': 1401, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'dyskinesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1440, 'mesh': 'D004409'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1495, 'end': 1503, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1526, 'end': 1534, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'neuropsychiatric-like behaviors', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1543, 'end': 1574, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1600, 'end': 1608, 'mesh': 'D007980'}, {'text': 'neuropsychiatric disorders', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1719, 'end': 1745, 'mesh': 'D001523'}, {'text': 'PD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1751, 'mesh': 'D010302'}, {'text': 'levodopa', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1791, 'end': 1799, 'mesh': 'D007980'}]" +1486,20192893,Contrast medium nephrotoxicity after renal artery and coronary angioplasty.,"BACKGROUND: Renal dysfunction induced by iodinated contrast medium (CM) administration can minimize the benefit of the interventional procedure in patients undergoing renal angioplasty (PTRA). PURPOSE: To compare the susceptibility to nephrotoxic effect of CM in patients undergoing PTRA with that of patients submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 33 patients successfully treated with PTRA (PTRA group, mean age 70+/-12 years, 23 female, basal creatinine 1.46+/-0.79, range 0.7-4.9 mg/dl) were compared with 33 patients undergoing successful PCI (PCI group), matched for basal creatinine (1.44+/-0.6, range 0.7-3.4 mg/dl), gender, and age. In both groups postprocedural (48 h) serum creatinine was measured. RESULTS: Postprocedural creatinine level decreased nonsignificantly in the PTRA group (1.46+/-0.8 vs. 1.34+/-0.5 mg/dl, P=NS) and increased significantly in the PCI group (1.44+/-0.6 vs. 1.57+/-0.7 mg/dl, P<0.02). Changes in serum creatinine after intervention (after-before) were significantly different between the PTRA and PCI groups (-0.12+/-0.5 vs. 0.13+/-0.3, P=0.014). This difference was not related to either a different clinical risk profile or to the volume of CM administered. CONCLUSION: In this preliminary study patients submitted to PTRA showed a lower susceptibility to renal damage induced by CM administration than PCI patients. The effectiveness of PTRA on renal function seems to be barely influenced by CM toxicity.","[{'text': 'Contrast medium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 15, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'Renal dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 88, 'end': 105, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'contrast medium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 127, 'end': 142, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 144, 'end': 146, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'nephrotoxic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 311, 'end': 322, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 333, 'end': 335, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 571, 'end': 581, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 704, 'end': 714, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 810, 'end': 820, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 859, 'end': 869, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1066, 'end': 1076, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1307, 'end': 1309, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'renal damage', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1422, 'end': 1434, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1446, 'end': 1448, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'CM', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1560, 'end': 1562, 'mesh': 'D003287'}, {'text': 'toxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1563, 'end': 1571, 'mesh': 'D064420'}]" +1487,20408947,Medical and psychiatric outcomes for patients transplanted for acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure: a case-control study.,"BACKGROUND: Acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity is the most common cause of acute liver failure (ALF) in the UK. Patients often consume the drug with suicidal intent or with a background of substance dependence. AIMS AND METHODS: We compared the severity of pretransplant illness, psychiatric co-morbidity, medical and psychosocial outcomes of all patients who had undergone liver transplantation (LT) emergently between 1999-2004 for acetaminophen-induced ALF (n=36) with age- and sex-matched patients undergoing emergent LT for non-acetaminophen-induced ALF (n=35) and elective LT for chronic liver disease (CLD, n=34). RESULTS: Acetaminophen-induced ALF patients undergoing LT had a greater severity of pre-LT illness reflected by higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores and requirement for organ support compared with the other two groups. Twenty (56%) acetaminophen-induced ALF patients had a formal psychiatric diagnosis before LT (non-acetaminophen-induced ALF=0/35, CLD=2/34; P<0.01 for all) and nine (25%) had a previous suicide attempt. During follow-up (median 5 years), there were no significant differences in rejection (acute and chronic), graft failure or survival between the groups (acetaminophen-induced ALF 1 year 87%, 5 years 75%; non-acetaminophen-induced ALF 88%, 78%; CLD 93%, 82%: P>0.6 log rank). Two acetaminophen-induced ALF patients reattempted suicide post-LT (one died 8 years post-LT). CONCLUSIONS: Despite a high prevalence of psychiatric disturbance, outcomes for patients transplanted emergently for acetaminophen-induced ALF were comparable to those transplanted for non-acetaminophen-induced ALF and electively for CLD. Multidisciplinary approaches with long-term psychiatric follow-up may contribute to low post-transplant suicide rates seen and low rates of graft loss because of non-compliance.","[{'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 63, 'end': 76, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 85, 'end': 104, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'Acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 140, 'end': 153, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'hepatotoxicity', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 162, 'end': 176, 'mesh': 'D056486'}, {'text': 'acute liver failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 205, 'end': 224, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 226, 'end': 229, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 564, 'end': 577, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 586, 'end': 589, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 663, 'end': 676, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 685, 'end': 688, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'chronic liver disease', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 716, 'end': 737, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'CLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 739, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'Acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 760, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 782, 'end': 785, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1023, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1032, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1095, 'end': 1108, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1117, 'end': 1120, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'CLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1127, 'end': 1130, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1353, 'end': 1366, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1375, 'end': 1378, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1408, 'end': 1421, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1430, 'end': 1433, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'CLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1444, 'end': 1447, 'mesh': 'D008107'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1479, 'end': 1492, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1501, 'end': 1504, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1687, 'end': 1700, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1709, 'end': 1712, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'acetaminophen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1759, 'end': 1772, 'mesh': 'D000082'}, {'text': 'ALF', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1781, 'end': 1784, 'mesh': 'D017114'}, {'text': 'CLD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1804, 'end': 1807, 'mesh': 'D008107'}]" +1488,20447294,"Studies of synergy between morphine and a novel sodium channel blocker, CNSB002, in rat models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain.","OBJECTIVE: This study determined the antihyperalgesic effect of CNSB002, a sodium channel blocker with antioxidant properties given alone and in combinations with morphine in rat models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. DESIGN: Dose response curves for nonsedating doses of morphine and CNSB002 given intraperitoneally alone and together in combinations were constructed for antihyperalgesic effect using paw withdrawal from noxious heat in two rat pain models: carrageenan-induced paw inflammation and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic neuropathy. RESULTS: The maximum nonsedating doses were: morphine, 3.2 mg/kg; CNSB002 10.0 mg/kg; 5.0 mg/kg CNSB002 with morphine 3.2 mg/kg in combination. The doses calculated to cause 50% reversal of hyperalgesia (ED50) were 7.54 (1.81) and 4.83 (1.54) in the carrageenan model and 44.18 (1.37) and 9.14 (1.24) in the STZ-induced neuropathy model for CNSB002 and morphine, respectively (mg/kg; mean, SEM). These values were greater than the maximum nonsedating doses. The ED50 values for morphine when given in combination with CNSB002 (5 mg/kg) were less than the maximum nonsedating dose: 0.56 (1.55) in the carrageenan model and 1.37 (1.23) in the neuropathy model (mg/kg; mean, SEM). The antinociception after morphine (3.2 mg/kg) was increased by co-administration with CNSB002 from 28.0 and 31.7% to 114.6 and 56.9% reversal of hyperalgesia in the inflammatory and neuropathic models, respectively (P < 0.01; one-way analysis of variance-significantly greater than either drug given alone). CONCLUSIONS: The maximum antihyperalgesic effect achievable with nonsedating doses of morphine may be increased significantly when the drug is used in combination with CNSB002.","[{'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 27, 'end': 35, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 48, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 72, 'end': 79, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 115, 'end': 131, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 197, 'end': 204, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'sodium', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 208, 'end': 214, 'mesh': 'D012964'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 296, 'end': 304, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'neuropathic pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 339, 'end': 355, 'mesh': 'D009437'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 411, 'end': 419, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 424, 'end': 431, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 586, 'end': 590, 'mesh': 'D010146'}, {'text': 'carrageenan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 599, 'end': 610, 'mesh': 'D002351'}, {'text': 'inflammation', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 623, 'end': 635, 'mesh': 'D007249'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 640, 'end': 654, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 656, 'end': 659, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetic neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 688, 'mesh': 'D003929'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 743, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 756, 'end': 763, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 786, 'end': 793, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 799, 'end': 807, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 880, 'end': 892, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'carrageenan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 940, 'end': 951, 'mesh': 'D002351'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 998, 'end': 1001, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1010, 'end': 1020, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1031, 'end': 1038, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1043, 'end': 1051, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1168, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1208, 'end': 1215, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'carrageenan', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1290, 'end': 1301, 'mesh': 'D002351'}, {'text': 'neuropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1331, 'end': 1341, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1394, 'end': 1402, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1455, 'end': 1462, 'mesh': 'C401121'}, {'text': 'hyperalgesia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1514, 'end': 1526, 'mesh': 'D006930'}, {'text': 'neuropathic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1551, 'end': 1562, 'mesh': 'D009422'}, {'text': 'morphine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1763, 'end': 1771, 'mesh': 'D009020'}, {'text': 'CNSB002', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1845, 'end': 1852, 'mesh': 'C401121'}]" +1489,20495512,Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia: a practical review.,"Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) remains under-recognized despite its potentially devastating outcomes. It begins when heparin exposure stimulates the formation of heparin-platelet factor 4 antibodies, which in turn triggers the release of procoagulant platelet particles. Thrombosis and thrombocytopenia that follow comprise the 2 hallmark traits of HIT, with the former largely responsible for significant vascular complications. The prevalence of HIT varies among several subgroups, with greater incidence in surgical as compared with medical populations. HIT must be acknowledged for its intense predilection for thrombosis and suspected whenever thrombosis occurs after heparin exposure. Early recognition that incorporates the clinical and serologic clues is paramount to timely institution of treatment, as its delay may result in catastrophic outcomes. The treatment of HIT mandates an immediate cessation of all heparin exposure and the institution of an antithrombotic therapy, most commonly using a direct thrombin inhibitor. Current ""diagnostic"" tests, which primarily include functional and antigenic assays, have more of a confirmatory than diagnostic role in the management of HIT. Special attention must be paid to cardiac patients who are often exposed to heparin multiple times during their course of treatment. Direct thrombin inhibitors are appropriate, evidence-based alternatives to heparin in patients with a history of HIT, who need to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention. As heparin remains one of the most frequently used medications today with potential for HIT with every heparin exposure, a close vigilance of platelet counts must be practiced whenever heparin is initiated.","[{'text': 'Heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 0, 'end': 7, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 16, 'end': 32, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'Heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 54, 'end': 61, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 70, 'end': 86, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 88, 'end': 91, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 179, 'end': 186, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 224, 'end': 231, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'Thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 333, 'end': 343, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'thrombocytopenia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 348, 'end': 364, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 411, 'end': 414, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 510, 'end': 513, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 619, 'end': 622, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 677, 'end': 687, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'thrombosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 711, 'end': 721, 'mesh': 'D013927'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 735, 'end': 742, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 938, 'end': 941, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 981, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'direct thrombin inhibitor', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1070, 'end': 1095, 'mesh': 'D000991'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1252, 'end': 1255, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1333, 'end': 1340, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'Direct thrombin inhibitors', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1390, 'end': 1416, 'mesh': 'D000991'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1465, 'end': 1472, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1503, 'end': 1506, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1567, 'end': 1574, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'HIT', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1652, 'end': 1655, 'mesh': 'D013921'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1667, 'end': 1674, 'mesh': 'D006493'}, {'text': 'heparin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1749, 'end': 1756, 'mesh': 'D006493'}]" +1490,20513036,Abductor paralysis after botox injection for adductor spasmodic dysphonia.,"OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Botulinum toxin (Botox) injections into the thyroarytenoid muscles are the current standard of care for adductor spasmodic dysphonia (ADSD). Reported adverse effects include a period of breathiness, throat pain, and difficulty with swallowing liquids. Here we report multiple cases of bilateral abductor paralysis following Botox injections for ADSD, a complication previously unreported. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. METHODS: Patients that received Botox injections for spasmodic dysphonia between January 2000 and October 2009 were evaluated. Patients with ADSD were identified. The number of treatments received and adverse effects were noted. For patients with bilateral abductor paralysis, age, sex, paralytic Botox dose, prior Botox dose, and course following paralysis were noted. RESULTS: From a database of 452 patients receiving Botox, 352 patients had been diagnosed with ADSD. Of these 352 patients, eight patients suffered bilateral abductor paralysis, and two suffered this complication twice. All affected patients were females over the age of 50 years. Most patients had received treatments prior to abductor paralysis and continued receiving after paralysis. Seven patients recovered after a brief period of activity restrictions, and one underwent a tracheotomy. The incidence of abductor paralysis after Botox injection for ADSD was 0.34%. CONCLUSIONS: Bilateral abductor paralysis is a rare complication of Botox injections for ADSD, causing difficulty with breathing upon exertion. The likely mechanism of paralysis is diffusion of Botox around the muscular process of the arytenoid to the posterior cricoarytenoid muscles. The paralysis is temporary, and watchful waiting with restriction of activity is the recommended management.","[{'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 9, 'end': 18, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 25, 'end': 30, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'adductor spasmodic dysphonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 45, 'end': 73, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 115, 'end': 120, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'adductor spasmodic dysphonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 202, 'end': 230, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'ADSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 232, 'end': 236, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'throat pain', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 297, 'end': 308, 'mesh': 'D010612'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 402, 'end': 411, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 422, 'end': 427, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'ADSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 443, 'end': 447, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 560, 'end': 565, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'spasmodic dysphonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 581, 'end': 600, 'mesh': 'D055154'}, {'text': 'ADSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 669, 'end': 673, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 794, 'end': 803, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 825, 'end': 830, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 843, 'end': 848, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 876, 'end': 885, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 949, 'end': 954, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'ADSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 993, 'end': 997, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1065, 'end': 1074, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1235, 'end': 1244, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1275, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1417, 'end': 1426, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1433, 'end': 1438, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'ADSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1453, 'end': 1457, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1501, 'end': 1510, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1537, 'end': 1542, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'ADSD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1558, 'end': 1562, 'mesh': 'D014826'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1637, 'end': 1646, 'mesh': 'D010243'}, {'text': 'Botox', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1663, 'end': 1668, 'mesh': 'C542870'}, {'text': 'paralysis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1759, 'end': 1768, 'mesh': 'D010243'}]" +1491,20566328,Mitochondrial impairment contributes to cocaine-induced cardiac dysfunction: Prevention by the targeted antioxidant MitoQ.,"The goal of this study was to assess mitochondrial function and ROS production in an experimental model of cocaine-induced cardiac dysfunction. We hypothesized that cocaine abuse may lead to altered mitochondrial function that in turn may cause left ventricular dysfunction. Seven days of cocaine administration to rats led to an increased oxygen consumption detected in cardiac fibers, specifically through complex I and complex III. ROS levels were increased, specifically in interfibrillar mitochondria. In parallel there was a decrease in ATP synthesis, whereas no difference was observed in subsarcolemmal mitochondria. This uncoupling effect on oxidative phosphorylation was not detectable after short-term exposure to cocaine, suggesting that these mitochondrial abnormalities were a late rather than a primary event in the pathological response to cocaine. MitoQ, a mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant, was shown to completely prevent these mitochondrial abnormalities as well as cardiac dysfunction characterized here by a diastolic dysfunction studied with a conductance catheter to obtain pressure-volume data. Taken together, these results extend previous studies and demonstrate that cocaine-induced cardiac dysfunction may be due to a mitochondrial defect.","[{'text': 'Mitochondrial impairment', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 0, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 40, 'end': 47, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 56, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'MitoQ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 116, 'end': 121, 'mesh': 'C476756'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 230, 'end': 237, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 246, 'end': 265, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'cocaine abuse', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 288, 'end': 301, 'mesh': 'D019970'}, {'text': 'left ventricular dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 368, 'end': 396, 'mesh': 'D018487'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 412, 'end': 419, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'oxygen', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 463, 'end': 469, 'mesh': 'D010100'}, {'text': 'ATP', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 666, 'end': 669, 'mesh': 'D000255'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 848, 'end': 855, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 879, 'end': 906, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 979, 'end': 986, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'MitoQ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 988, 'end': 993, 'mesh': 'C476756'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial abnormalities', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1071, 'end': 1098, 'mesh': 'D028361'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1110, 'end': 1129, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'diastolic dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1154, 'end': 1175, 'mesh': '-1'}, {'text': 'cocaine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1319, 'end': 1326, 'mesh': 'D003042'}, {'text': 'cardiac dysfunction', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1335, 'end': 1354, 'mesh': 'D006331'}, {'text': 'mitochondrial defect', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1371, 'end': 1391, 'mesh': 'D028361'}]" +1492,20589632,Trimethoprim-induced immune hemolytic anemia in a pediatric oncology patient presenting as an acute hemolytic transfusion reaction.,"A 10-year-old male with acute leukemia presented with post-chemotherapy anemia.

We have previously demonstrated that endothelial-mesenchymal-transition (EndoMT) contributes to the early development of renal interstitial fibrosis independently of microalbuminuria in mice with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes. In the present study, we hypothesized that blocking EndoMT reduces the early development of diabetic nephropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: EndoMT was induced in a mouse pancreatic microvascular endothelial cell line (MMEC) in the presence of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and in the endothelial lineage-traceble mouse line Tie2-Cre;Loxp-EGFP by administration of AGEs, with nonglycated mouse albumin serving as a control. Phosphorylated Smad3 was detected by immunoprecipitation/Western blotting and confocal microscopy. Blocking studies using receptor for AGE siRNA and a specific inhibitor of Smad3 (SIS3) were performed in MMECs and in STZ-induced diabetic nephropathy in Tie2-Cre;Loxp-EGFP mice. RESULTS: Confocal microscopy and real-time PCR demonstrated that AGEs induced EndoMT in MMECs and in Tie2-Cre;Loxp-EGFP mice. Immunoprecipitation/Western blotting showed that Smad3 was activated by AGEs but was inhibited by SIS3 in MMECs and in STZ-induced diabetic nephropathy. Confocal microscopy and real-time PCR further demonstrated that SIS3 abrogated EndoMT, reduced renal fibrosis, and retarded progression of nephropathy. CONCLUSIONS: EndoMT is a novel pathway leading to early development of diabetic nephropathy. Blockade of EndoMT by SIS3 may provide a new strategy to retard the progression of diabetic nephropathy and other diabetes complications.","[{'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 100, 'end': 114, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 123, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'angiotensin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 228, 'end': 239, 'mesh': 'D000804'}, {'text': 'type 1 diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 264, 'end': 279, 'mesh': 'D003922'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 335, 'end': 346, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 425, 'end': 445, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 447, 'end': 467, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 610, 'end': 618, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 666, 'end': 680, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 682, 'end': 685, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetes', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 695, 'end': 703, 'mesh': 'D003920'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 797, 'end': 817, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1357, 'end': 1360, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1369, 'end': 1389, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1663, 'end': 1666, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1675, 'end': 1695, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'fibrosis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1798, 'end': 1806, 'mesh': 'D005355'}, {'text': 'nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1836, 'end': 1847, 'mesh': 'D007674'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1920, 'end': 1940, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'diabetic nephropathy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2025, 'end': 2045, 'mesh': 'D003928'}, {'text': 'diabetes complications', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2056, 'end': 2078, 'mesh': 'D048909'}]" +1494,20828385,Cytostatic and anti-angiogenic effects of temsirolimus in refractory mantle cell lymphoma.,"Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare and aggressive type of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Patients become progressively refractory to conventional chemotherapy, and their prognosis is poor. However, a 38% remission rate has been recently reported in refractory MCL treated with temsirolimus, a mTOR inhibitor.Here we had the opportunity to study a case of refractory MCL who had tumor regression two months after temsirolimus treatment, and a progression-free survival of 10 months. In this case, lymph node biopsies were performed before and six months after temsirolimus therapy. Comparison of the two biopsies showed that temsirolimus inhibited tumor cell proliferation through cell cycle arrest, but did not induce any change in the number of apoptotic tumor cells. Apart from this cytostatic effect, temsirolimus had an antiangiogenic effect with decrease of tumor microvessel density and of VEGF expression. Moreover, numerous patchy, well-limited fibrotic areas, compatible with post-necrotic tissue repair, were found after 6-month temsirolimus therapy. Thus, temsirolimus reduced tumor burden through associated cytostatic and anti-angiogenic effects.This dual effect of temsirolimus on tumor tissue could contribute to its recently reported efficiency in refractory MCL resistant to conventional chemotherapy.","[{'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 42, 'end': 54, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'mantle cell lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 69, 'end': 89, 'mesh': 'D020522'}, {'text': 'Mantle cell lymphoma', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 111, 'mesh': 'D020522'}, {'text': 'MCL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 113, 'end': 116, 'mesh': 'D020522'}, {'text': ""B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 151, 'end': 180, 'mesh': 'D008228'}, {'text': 'MCL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 353, 'end': 356, 'mesh': 'D020522'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 370, 'end': 382, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'MCL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 459, 'end': 462, 'mesh': 'D020522'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 471, 'end': 476, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 505, 'end': 517, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 652, 'end': 664, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 717, 'end': 729, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 740, 'end': 745, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 849, 'end': 854, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 897, 'end': 909, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 956, 'end': 961, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'necrotic', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1083, 'end': 1091, 'mesh': 'D009336'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1132, 'end': 1144, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1160, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1181, 'end': 1186, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'temsirolimus', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1272, 'end': 1284, 'mesh': 'C401859'}, {'text': 'tumor', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1288, 'end': 1293, 'mesh': 'D009369'}, {'text': 'MCL', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1368, 'end': 1371, 'mesh': 'D020522'}]" +1495,20859899,Syncope caused by hyperkalemia during use of a combined therapy with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and spironolactone.,"A 76 year-old woman with a history of coronary artery bypass grafting and prior myocardial infarction was transferred to the emergency room with loss of consciousness due to marked bradycardia caused by hyperkalemia.

CASE SUMMARY: A 54-year-old male presented to the emergency department with generalized weakness and presumed health-care-associated pneumonia shown on chest radiograph. Treatment was empirically initiated with vancomycin, levofloxacin, and piperacillin/tazobactam. Blood cultures revealed S. aureus susceptible to oxacillin. Empiric antibiotic treatment was narrowed to nafcillin on day 4. On day 8, the patient developed acute renal failure (serum creatinine 1.9 mg/dL, increased from 1.2 mg/dL the previous day and 0.8 mg/dL on admission). The patient's Glasgow Coma Score was 3, with normal findings shown on computed tomography scan of the head 72 hours following an episode of cardiac arrest on day 10. The patient experienced relapsing MSSA bacteremia on day 9, increasing the suspicion for a central nervous system (CNS) infection. Nafcillin was discontinued and daptomycin 9 mg/kg daily was initiated for suspected meningitis and was continued until the patient's death on day 16. Daptomycin serum and CSF trough concentrations were 11.21 ug/mL and 0.52 ug/mL, respectively, prior to the third dose. Lumbar puncture results were inconclusive and no further blood cultures were positive for MSSA. Creatine kinase levels were normal prior to daptomycin therapy and were not reassessed. DISCUSSION: Daptomycin was initiated in our patient secondary to possible nafcillin-induced acute interstitial nephritis and relapsing bacteremia. At a dose of 9 mg/kg, resultant penetration of 5% was higher than in previous reports, more consistent with inflamed meninges. CONCLUSIONS: High-dose daptomycin may be an alternative option for MSSA bacteremia with or without a CNS source in patients who have failed or cannot tolerate standard therapy. Further clinical evaluation in patients with confirmed meningitis is warranted.","[{'text': 'daptomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 45, 'end': 55, 'mesh': 'D017576'}, {'text': 'meningitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 91, 'end': 101, 'mesh': 'D008581'}, {'text': 'methicillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 134, 'end': 145, 'mesh': 'D008712'}, {'text': 'bacteremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 185, 'end': 195, 'mesh': 'D016470'}, {'text': 'meningitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 216, 'end': 226, 'mesh': 'D008581'}, {'text': 'daptomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 250, 'end': 260, 'mesh': 'D017576'}, {'text': 'weakness', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 426, 'end': 434, 'mesh': 'D018908'}, {'text': 'pneumonia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 471, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D011014'}, {'text': 'vancomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 549, 'end': 559, 'mesh': 'D014640'}, {'text': 'levofloxacin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 561, 'end': 573, 'mesh': 'D064704'}, {'text': 'piperacillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 579, 'end': 591, 'mesh': 'D010878'}, {'text': 'tazobactam', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 592, 'end': 602, 'mesh': 'C043265'}, {'text': 'oxacillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 653, 'end': 662, 'mesh': 'D010068'}, {'text': 'nafcillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 709, 'end': 718, 'mesh': 'D009254'}, {'text': 'acute renal failure', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 761, 'end': 780, 'mesh': 'D058186'}, {'text': 'creatinine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 788, 'end': 798, 'mesh': 'D003404'}, {'text': 'cardiac arrest', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1021, 'end': 1035, 'mesh': 'D006323'}, {'text': 'bacteremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1086, 'end': 1096, 'mesh': 'D016470'}, {'text': 'infection', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1167, 'end': 1176, 'mesh': 'D007239'}, {'text': 'Nafcillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1178, 'end': 1187, 'mesh': 'D009254'}, {'text': 'daptomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1209, 'end': 1219, 'mesh': 'D017576'}, {'text': 'meningitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1262, 'end': 1272, 'mesh': 'D008581'}, {'text': 'Daptomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1328, 'end': 1338, 'mesh': 'D017576'}, {'text': 'Creatine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1543, 'end': 1551, 'mesh': 'D003401'}, {'text': 'daptomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1587, 'end': 1597, 'mesh': 'D017576'}, {'text': 'Daptomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1643, 'end': 1653, 'mesh': 'D017576'}, {'text': 'nafcillin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1705, 'end': 1714, 'mesh': 'D009254'}, {'text': 'interstitial nephritis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1729, 'end': 1751, 'mesh': 'D009395'}, {'text': 'bacteremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1766, 'end': 1776, 'mesh': 'D016470'}, {'text': 'daptomycin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1928, 'end': 1938, 'mesh': 'D017576'}, {'text': 'bacteremia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1977, 'end': 1987, 'mesh': 'D016470'}, {'text': 'meningitis', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 2137, 'end': 2147, 'mesh': 'D008581'}]" +1498,21195121,The role of nitric oxide in convulsions induced by lindane in rats.,"Lindane is an organochloride pesticide and scabicide. It evokes convulsions mainly trough the blockage of GABA(A) receptors. Nitric oxide (NO), gaseous neurotransmitter, has contradictor role in epileptogenesis due to opposite effects of L-arginine, precursor of NO syntheses (NOS), and L-NAME (NOS inhibitor) observed in different epilepsy models. The aim of the current study was to determine the effects of NO on the behavioral and EEG characteristics of lindane-induced epilepsy in male Wistar albino rats. The administration of L-arginine (600, 800 and 1000 mg/kg, i.p.) in dose-dependent manner significantly increased convulsion incidence and severity and shortened latency time to first convulsion elicited by lower lindane dose (4 mg/kg, i.p.). On the contrary, pretreatment with L-NAME (500, 700 and 900 mg/kg, i.p.) decreased convulsion incidence and severity and prolonged latency time to convulsion following injection with a convulsive dose of lindane (8 mg/kg, i.p.). EEG analyses showed increase of number and duration of ictal periods in EEG of rats receiving l-arginine prior to lindane and decrease of this number in rats pretreated with L-NAME. These results support the conclusion that NO plays a role of endogenous convulsant in rat model of lindane seizures.","[{'text': 'nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 12, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 28, 'end': 39, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 51, 'end': 58, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'Lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 68, 'end': 75, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'convulsions', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 132, 'end': 143, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'GABA', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 174, 'end': 178, 'mesh': 'D005680'}, {'text': 'Nitric oxide', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 193, 'end': 205, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 207, 'end': 209, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 306, 'end': 316, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 331, 'end': 333, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'L-NAME', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 355, 'end': 361, 'mesh': 'D019331'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 400, 'end': 408, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 478, 'end': 480, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 526, 'end': 533, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'epilepsy', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 542, 'end': 550, 'mesh': 'D004827'}, {'text': 'L-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 601, 'end': 611, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'convulsion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 693, 'end': 703, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 763, 'end': 773, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 792, 'end': 799, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'L-NAME', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 857, 'end': 863, 'mesh': 'D019331'}, {'text': 'convulsion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 905, 'end': 915, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsion', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 969, 'end': 979, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'convulsive', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1007, 'end': 1017, 'mesh': 'D012640'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1026, 'end': 1033, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'l-arginine', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1145, 'end': 1155, 'mesh': 'D001120'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1165, 'end': 1172, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'L-NAME', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1225, 'end': 1231, 'mesh': 'D019331'}, {'text': 'NO', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1275, 'end': 1277, 'mesh': 'D009569'}, {'text': 'lindane', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1332, 'end': 1339, 'mesh': 'D001556'}, {'text': 'seizures', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1340, 'end': 1348, 'mesh': 'D012640'}]" +1499,24055495,Long-term oral galactose treatment prevents cognitive deficits in male Wistar rats treated intracerebroventricularly with streptozotocin.,"Basic and clinical research has demonstrated that dementia of sporadic Alzheimer's disease (sAD) type is associated with dysfunction of the insulin-receptor (IR) system followed by decreased glucose transport via glucose transporter GLUT4 and decreased glucose metabolism in brain cells. An alternative source of energy is d-galactose (the C-4-epimer of d-glucose) which is transported into the brain by insulin-independent GLUT3 transporter where it might be metabolized to glucose via the Leloir pathway. Exclusively parenteral daily injections of galactose induce memory deterioration in rodents and are used to generate animal aging model, but the effects of oral galactose treatment on cognitive functions have never been tested. We have investigated the effects of continuous daily oral galactose (200 mg/kg/day) treatment on cognitive deficits in streptozotocin-induced (STZ-icv) rat model of sAD, tested by Morris Water Maze and Passive Avoidance test, respectively. One month of oral galactose treatment initiated immediately after the STZ-icv administration, successfully prevented development of the STZ-icv-induced cognitive deficits. Beneficial effect of oral galactose was independent of the rat age and of the galactose dose ranging from 100 to 300 mg/kg/day. Additionally, oral galactose administration led to the appearance of galactose in the blood. The increase of galactose concentration in the cerebrospinal fluid was several times lower after oral than after parenteral administration of the same galactose dose. Oral galactose exposure might have beneficial effects on learning and memory ability and could be worth investigating for improvement of cognitive deficits associated with glucose hypometabolism in AD.","[{'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 15, 'end': 24, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'cognitive deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 44, 'end': 62, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 122, 'end': 136, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'dementia', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 188, 'end': 196, 'mesh': 'D003704'}, {'text': ""Alzheimer's disease"", 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 209, 'end': 228, 'mesh': 'D000544'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 329, 'end': 336, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 351, 'end': 358, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 391, 'end': 398, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'd-galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 461, 'end': 472, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'd-glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 492, 'end': 501, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'glucose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 613, 'end': 620, 'mesh': 'D005947'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 688, 'end': 697, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'memory deterioration', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 705, 'end': 725, 'mesh': 'D008569'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 806, 'end': 815, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 931, 'end': 940, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'cognitive deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 970, 'end': 988, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'streptozotocin', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 992, 'end': 1006, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1016, 'end': 1019, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1131, 'end': 1140, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1183, 'end': 1186, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'STZ', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1249, 'end': 1252, 'mesh': 'D013311'}, {'text': 'cognitive deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1265, 'end': 1283, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1311, 'end': 1320, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1363, 'end': 1372, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1432, 'end': 1441, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1482, 'end': 1491, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1522, 'end': 1531, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1657, 'end': 1666, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'galactose', 'type': 'Chemical', 'start': 1678, 'end': 1687, 'mesh': 'D005690'}, {'text': 'cognitive deficits', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1810, 'end': 1828, 'mesh': 'D003072'}, {'text': 'glucose hypometabolism', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1845, 'end': 1867, 'mesh': 'D018149'}, {'text': 'AD', 'type': 'Disease', 'start': 1871, 'end': 1873, 'mesh': 'D000544'}]"
