UNLABELLED The aim of this work was to develop a selective method for quantification of Sn(II) and Sn(IV) in dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA), ethylcysteinate dimer (ECD), methylenediphosphonic acid (MDP), and pyrophosphate radiopharmaceutical cold kits by differential pulse polarography. METHODS A dripping mercury electrode 150 polarographic/stripping analyzer with a conventional 3-electrode c...

the present work describes the studies on the coordination behaviour of 4[n-(benzalidene) amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (baaps) (i), 4[n-(furfural)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (ffaaps) (ii) and 4[n-(cinnamalidene)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (caaps) (iii) in presence of dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso) or diphenyl sulfoxide (dpso) towards th4+ and uo22+ salts. all the complexes were isolated in n...

We have studied an X-ray switch based on a gold coated indium antimonide crystal using time-resolved X-ray diffraction and demonstrated that the switch could reduce the pulse duration of a 100 ps X-ray pulse down to 20 ps with a peak reflectivity of 8%. We have used a dynamical diffraction code to predict the performance of the switch, which was then confirmed experimentally. The experiment was...

Subunit-specific antisera prepared against each of the four cytoplasmically made subunits (IV, V, VI, and VII) of yeast mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1) were used to precipitate immunoreactive polypeptides that were synthesized either in vitro, in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system programmed with total yeast mRNA, or in vivo, in intact cells and in spheroplasts, under condi...

We present a case of mesentric vasculitis with systemic lupus erythematosus who relapsed after high dose steroids but achieved subsequent remission after starting pulse cyclophosphamide therapy. 38 years old female who had earlier polyserositis and cerebral venous thrombosis was admitted with provisional diagnosis of SLE and developed acute abdominal pain during hospital stay. She was diagnosed...

OBJECTIVES To determine initial intravenous gammaglobulin (IVIG) treatment failures in Kawasaki disease (KD) and to report the outcome of retreatment and our use of pulse intravenous (IV) methylprednisolone and cyclophosphamide in patients with persistent KD. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective analysis of the treatment and response of children with KD over 3 years. RESULTS Fifty (77%) of 65 patient...

An animal model was designed to study the effect of large volume Hypertonic Solutions (HTS) for re‌suscitation following a hypovolemic shock. Resuscitation in hypovolemic animals was performed by infusion of 15 ml/kg of normal saline (group I), 5% sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) (group II), 5% sodium chloride (NaCI) and 7.5 % NaHCO3 1:1 VN (group III), 5% NaC1 (group IV), and 5% NaCl and 5% serum a...

III.?September 9th.?Mussamut Sukaraini Kayathin, aged 50 years?duration of attack 27 hours?in severe callapse, urine suppressed, pulse imperceptible, great restlessness; injected 25 drops in each arm ; an hour after pulse could be felt at wrist, injections repeated. 10th.?Found asleep at time of visit, had passed a little urine. 13th.? Cured. IV. September 9th.?Bhindra Parshad Kayath, aged 20 y...

Aortic augmentation index, a measure of central systolic blood pressure augmentation arising mainly from pressure-wave reflection, increases with vascular aging. The augmentation index is influenced by aortic pulse-wave velocity (related to aortic stiffness) and by the site and extent of wave reflection. To clarify the relative influence of pulse-wave velocity and wave reflection on the augment...

All patients received pulse therapy with: IV cyclophosphamide 0.5 g/m2 with IV methylprednisolone (IVMP) 250 mg on days 1 and 23; IV rituximab 375 mg/m2 on days 2, 9, 16 and 23. Results All 3 patients had a dramatic improvement in urine protein-creatinine ratios, and normalization of blood pressure. Despite low-dose daily corticosteroids, all patients had an increase in generalized SLE activity...
