The Effects of Glyceryl Trinitrate and Nicotinic Acid Ointments during Cold Exposure

Exposure to glyceryl trinitrate during gun powder production: plasma glyceryl trinitrate concentration, elimination kinetics, and discomfort among production workers.

Plasma glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) concentration was studied in 12 volunteers producing gun powder. Serial blood samples were obtained from the cubital vein before and during work at two sites of production; high concentrations of GTN were detected in the plasma. Control specimens from a femoral vein contained much less GTN, indicating that blood in the cubital vein was enriched by dermally absor...

their interest in our article. First, we would like to apologize for mis-attributing the statement to the authors. The correct reference in our article was to 11 not 1 and it is not a direct quotation. We believe our survey provides sufficient evidence to raise concerns over the use of transtracheal ventilation using a high pressure source without control of airway pressure, but a survey lackin...

Comparison with glyceryl trinitrate

The coronary haemodynamic effects of nifedipine and glyceryl trinitrate were compared in 22 patients undergoing investigations for suspected coronary artery disease. Myocardial blood flow was estimated by the coronary sinus thermodilution technique. In sinus rhythm nifedipine increased mean coronary sinus flow from 135 ml/min to 152 m/min, and reduced arterio-coronary sinus oxygen difference fr...

of stones from the gall bladder.3 There are several clinical implications. The long contiguous course of the cystic duct and common hepatic duct could explain why surgeons sometimes inadvertently leave a long remnant of cystic duct, which is reputedly a cause of the postcholecystectomy syndrome.4 Furthermore, the migration of stones from the gall bladder into the contiguous segment may explain ...
