BACKGROUND Antenatal betamethasone is routinely used for the prevention of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome in preterm infants. However, little is known of the long term effects of exposure to antenatal betamethasone on lung function in adulthood. METHODS Five hundred and thirty four 30 year olds whose mothers had participated in the first and largest randomised controlled trial of ante...

Administration of L-carnitine or betamethasone to pregnant rats failed to increase either the total phospholipid or dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) contents in foetal rat lungs on the 20th day of gestation, compared to controls. The combined administration of betamethasone (0.3 mg/kg) and L-carnitine (80 mg/kg) resulted in a pronounced increase of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (7.8 +/- 2...

BACKGROUND The association between maternal serum concentration of betamethasone given for fetal lung maturity and perinatal outcome has not been investigated. This may be due to an absence of a reliable method for measuring serum betamethasone concentrations. We aimed in the current study to assess the feasibility of a specific ELISA kit to measure the concentrations of betamethasone in matern...

Abstract Background Glucocorticoids rarely cause anaphylaxis. Common methods for the determination of allergens include in vivo skin prick test (SPT) and intradermal (IDST) vitro basophil activation (BAT). However, to our knowledge, best strategy diagnosing glucocorticoid-induced anaphylaxis has not been elucidated. Case presentation A 10-year-old boy was admitted hospital because 2 weeks fever...

METHOD Eighty patients were prospectively randomized for precolonoscopic cleansing either with 750ml of 10% mannitol (Group M) or 180ml of a sodium phosphate preparation (Group NaP). Laboratory examinations before and after preparation on all patients included hemoglobin, hematocrit, sodium, potassium, phosphorous, calcium and serum osmolarity. A questionnaire was used to assess undesirable sid...

An ultrafine grain surface layer with average crystallite size of 28 nm was produced on annealed mild steel through a wire brushing process. The effects of grain size reduction on the inhibition performance of sodium phosphate were investigated using polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The crystal grain size of wire brushed surface was analyzed by X-ray d...
