OBJECTIVE Many radiologists are unfamiliar with the new antithrombogenic medications and how to modify patient management before nonvascular percutaneous procedures performed in a radiology department. In this article, we review the indications for use, mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, dosing, and recommendations for periprocedural management of patients using these medications. CONCLUS...

OBJECTIVE Develop a detailed representation of pharmacokinetics (PK), derived from the information in Summaries of Product Characteristics (SPCs), for use in computerized systems to help practitioners in pharmaco-therapeutic reasoning. METHODS Available knowledge about PK was studied to identify main PK concepts and organize them in a preliminary generic model. The information from 1950 PK SP...

Presently, there is large interest in analysing the interactions in vitro with plasma proteins of some novel antitumor ruthenium(III) complexes that are in preclinical or clinical phase. The joint application of separation and spectroscopic techniques provides valuable information on the nature and the properties of the resulting ruthenium/protein adducts. Recent work carried out in our laborat...

The theory of reaction-diffusion waves begins in the 1930s with the works in population dynamics, combustion theory and chemical kinetics. At the present time, it is a well developed area of research which includes qualitative properties of travelling waves for the scalar reaction-diffusion equation and for system of equations, complex nonlinear dynamics, numerous applications in physics, chemi...

a theoretical study of the kinetic and mechanism of 3-aug-cope rearrangement in gas phase was performed usingdet methods at b3lyp levels of theory with 6-3114ig(d,p) bass set at 298.i5k. equilibrium moleculargeometries and harmonic vibrational frequencies of the reactant, transition state did product were calculated. then,rate constant and activation thermodynamics parameters were calculated an...

transparent glasses in a system of li2o-mgo-sio2-al2o3-fchemical constituents were prepared by melt quenching method. in the fabrication of nanocrystal glass-ceramics, controlled nucleation and subsequent crystal growth were necessary to avoid loss of transparency. it was therefore important to understand thermal properties and crystallization kinetics of the glass ceramics. the crystallization...

background and purpose: dye is widely used in industries such as cosmetic, leather, paper and textile and release to the environment via their effluents. the purpose of this study was to compare the efficiency of low-cost adsorbents in acid orang 7 dyes removal from water. materials and methods: the rice stem biomass was sun dried, crushed and sieved to particle sizes in range of 1-2 mm. then t...

in this study chitosan hydrogel beads with porosity ~ 0.86 and diameter ~ 20.07 mm were prepared from 85 % deacetylated chitosan for removal of cd2+ ions from aqueous solutions.  chitosan powder was dissolved into dilute acetic acid as solvent and formed into spherical beads using a phase inversion technique. the effect of temperature, initial concentration of cd2+ ions, and the period of agita...

to observe the feasibility of the removal of carmine, peanut husk, an agriculture by-product, was crosslinked with epichlorohydrin in alkaline medium and used for adsorption of carmine from aqueous solution. batch experiments were carried out to study the effects of various parameters such as initial ph, contact time, adsorbent dosage and initial carmine concentration, as well as temperature on...

in this study, nano-tio2 was employed for the adsorption of chloroform from aqueous solution in batch equilibrium experiments to investigate its adsorption properties. the effects of ph, initial chloroform concentration and nano-tio2 dosage were also investigated. optimal conditions for chloroform removal by nano-tio2 have been then identified. results of equilibrium experiments showed that the...
