Some actions of Org NC 45 have been compared with those of pancuronium in a study on 50 patients anesthetized with nitrous oxide and narcotic supplements. The train-of-four technique was used to assess the recovery of neuromuscular blockade and its antagonism. Org NC 45 was shown to have a duration of action from injection of the intubating dose (0.1 mg kg-1) to the reappearance of the first tw...

The recent crisis made it evident that replicating the performance of a benchmark is not a sufficient goal to meet the expectations of usually risk-averse investors. The manager should also consider that the investor are seeking for a downside protection when the benchmark performs poorly and thus they should integrate a form of downside risk control. We propose a multiperiod double tracking er...

The non-depolarizing neuromuscular block produced by Org NC 45 was potentiated by the previous administration of suxamethonium 1 mg kg-1, shown by twitch depression of 91.3 +/- 2.4% when the same dose of Org NC 45 was administered after recovery from suxamethonium compared with the control value of 71.9 +/- 6.5%. The recovery index was also prolonged from 8.1 +/- 0.3 to 10.4 +/- 1.0 min after s...
