BACKGROUND Low-dose aspirin irreversibly inhibits platelet cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and suppresses platelet aggregation. It is effective for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events. Because nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) reversibly bind with COX-1, the antiplatelet effects of aspirin may be suppressed when NSAIDs are co-administered. This interaction could be avoided by avo...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Respiration is an important component of plant carbon balance, but it remains uncertain how respiration will respond to increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration, and there are few measurements of respiration for crop plants grown at elevated [CO(2)] under field conditions. The hypothesis that respiration of leaves of soybeans grown at elevated [CO(2)] is increas...

We conducted a retrospective study of AIDS-associated cerebral toxoplasmosis. Eighteen patients received pyrimethamine plus sulfadiazine and 25 co-trimoxazole, with comparable baseline characteristics. There were no differences in clinical outcomes, but co-trimoxazole was better tolerated (p = 0.066). There was also a trend towards more deaths among patients who received glucocorticoids.

A new SchilT base. dhpyr4apbi, has been synthesized from 4aminopheny l benzimidazo le and 2, 2'dehydropyroll idene-Naldehyde and its co mpl exes with Zn (II). Cd (II ) and Hg (II ) halides have been prepared. Phys icochemical properties of these metal complexes have been in vestigated using elemental analysis. molar conductance. proton NMR and IR measu rements. The complexes are non-e lec troly...

An atlas of the Galactic plane (−4.7 • < b < 4.7 •) plus the molecular clouds in Orion, ρ Ophiuchus, and Taurus-Auriga has been produced at 60 and 100 µm from IRAS data. The atlas consists of resolution-enhanced coadded images having 1 ′ – 2 ′ resolution as well as coadded images at the native IRAS resolution. The IRAS Galaxy Atlas, together with the DRAO HI line / 21 cm continuum and FCRAO CO ...

BACKGROUND Many patients with cardiovascular (CV) disease will stop aspirin (ASA) because of ASA-related dyspepsia. Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) co-therapy may reduce ASA-related dyspepsia, enhancing ASA adherence and improving CV outcomes. AIM To explore the impact of PPI co-therapy on CV outcomes in long-term, low-dose ASA users. METHODS We modified a previously published Markov model to a...

BACKGROUND The importance of diagnosing and treating co-occurring psychiatric disorders among substance abusers in treatment has received much attention. The aim of this study was to investigate to which extent co-occurring psychiatric disorders are diagnosed in a clinical population of substance abusers, and which factors (including the use of MINI-Plus) that influence the diagnosing of co-occ...

The transient increase in cation permeability observed in duck red cells incubated with norepinephrine has been shown to be a linked, bidirectional, co-transport of sodium plus potassium. This pathway, sensitive to loop diuretics such as furosemide, was found to have a [Na + K] stoichiometry of 1:1 under all conditions tested. Net sodium efflux was inhibited by increasing external potassium, an...

We present a CO(2-1) and 1240μm continuum survey of 23 debris disks with spectral types B9-G1, observed at an angular resolution of 0. ′′5-1” with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA). The sample was selected for large infrared excess and age ∼10 Myr, to characterize the prevalence of molecular gas emission in young debris disks. We identify three CO-rich debris disks, plus t...
