Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are widely used as antihypertensives, remodeling agents in heart failure, to stop the progression of diabetic nephropathy, well for a variety other clinical purposes. Some side effects ACE recognized such dry cough, hypotension, hyperkaliemia, proteinuria, renal failure. Also, these substances known have wide range dermatological addition their adv...

1. The specific precipitin reaction and the skin reaction given by old tuberculin are attributable to two separate substances present in this material. The cause of the reaction first mentioned is a non-protein gum which will be fully described in the following paper. The cause of the skin reaction is probably but not surely a protein. 2. Methods which have been suggested for the standardizatio...

Skin lipids of mice exposed to NO2 contain lipid-soluble nitrosating agent(s) (NSA) that react in vitro with amines to produce nitrosamines. To test whether this reaction occurs in skin, we exposed mice to 50 ppm NO2 for 4 h and, 20 h later, applied 25 mg morpholine or N-methylaniline to the skin, which was then analyzed for the corresponding nitrosamine. When morpholine was applied, mean N-nit...

WHAT IS RADIOTHERAPY-INDUCED SKIN REACTION? While radiotherapy treatment is vital for tumour management, it can cause severe skin reaction. All patients receiving external radiotherapy beam therapy (EBRT) are at risk of developing a reaction; the incidence is said to range from 85% (Robson and Cooper, 2009; Salvo et al, 2010) to 95% (McQuestion, 2011). Due to the appearance of RISR, it is easy ...

Allergic skin tests have to be performed 4-6 weeks after an allergic anesthetic reaction. Patients with allergic reactions during anesthesia were prospectively included (n = 44). Skin tests were performed in two stages: (i) Stage 1 (S1), 0-4 days after the reaction; and (ii) Stage 2 (S2), 4-8 weeks after. Five (11.5%) surgical procedures were suspended due to the reaction. Positive skin tests w...
