DESIGN Systematic review of randomised trials comparing low dosage tricyclics (< or =100 mg/day) with placebo or with standard dosage tricyclics in adults with depression. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Relative risk of res...

Treatment with a high-dose, intravenous bolus of methylprednisolone has been reported in numerous cases of rheumatic diseases. The optimal routes of administration, dosage, dosage interval, and other factors are unknown. This report describes uncontrolled clinical observations with a single dose of 320 mg of intramuscular methylprednisolone acetate in patients with rheumatic disease (12 with rh...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the pattern of vancomycin administration in the hematology-oncology ward of Nemazee Hospital, Shiraz, Iran. Study criteria were developed to assess the several parameters involved in vancomycin therapy. These parameters include the appropriateness of drug usage, dosage, duration of therapy, monitoring for toxicity and serum concentration monitoring. ...

The duration of Ag expression in vivo has been reported to have a minimal impact on both the magnitude and kinetics of contraction of a pathogen-induced CD8(+) T cell response. In this study, we controlled the duration of Ag expression by excising the ear pinnae following intradermal ear pinnae DNA immunization. This resulted in decreased magnitude, accelerated contraction and differentiation, ...

There are subtle, and yet critical and unique differences that distinguish the depot maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) domain from production manufacturing. These differences motivate the need for more efficient ways to capture the essence of the depot MRO domain dynamics. The authors provide an informal characterization of the depot MRO by highlighting some of the major differences. Alon...

Venom immunotherapy has proven a very effective method for the treatment of allergy to Hymenoptera venom. Aqueous instead of depot extracts are prevalently used for this immunotherapy. The advantage of using aqueous extracts has not been fully investigated. We made an open, non-controlled study on 45 subjects sensitized to either Apis mellifera or Vespula spp. Patients were assigned to either a...

Few data are in literature about the pharmacological treatment of conversion disorder and there are not any studies about the use of Valproate extended release (ER) in treating conversion disorder. In this article, we are reporting a case of an Italian woman with a diagnosis of conversion disorder treated effectively and quickly by Valproate ER.
