The ancient procedure of Kriya yoga is compared here to Dr. Tse-kong young's modern alternative to the artificial kidney. Both methods are basically the same and the treatment costs almost nothing.

Reprocessing of hemodialyzers is a well-established practice in the United States. In 1999, 80% of the dialysis centers had dialyzer reprocessing programs. Many researchers, including this author, have studied various aspects of performance and quality control for reprocessed hemodialyzers. Much of the literature associated with these studies confirms dialyzer reprocessing can be a safe and eff...

The serum half-life of tobramycin was found to be the same as that of gentamicin in patients with similar renal function. The values ranged from 2 hr in normal volunteers to 53.4 hr in anephric patients. Both drugs were readily removed from the serum by the Kiil artificial kidney, with a 70% reduction in serum concentrations during a 12-hr dialysis period.

due to the fact that a considerable part of europe, including some regions of poland, isconsidered to be deficient in selenium, it seems necessary to develop a selenium map for different regions of poland, which will be used in future to prepare a prophylaxis programme against selenium deficiency inanimals. the aim of the study was to determine selenium content in selected organs (liver and kid...

A 5-megacycle Doppler flow meter, calibrated in-vitro, was found to give a linear response to blood flow in the ranges commonly encountered in haemodialysis. With this, blood flow through artificial kidneys could be measured simply and with a clinically acceptable error. The method is safe, as blood lines do not have to be punctured or disconnected and hence there is no risk of introducing infe...

objective(s) quinazolinones are heterocyclic components (able to form cyclized compounds) which have several medical effects such as anti-malarial, spasmolytic, anti-microbial, sedative, etc. they are also known for their fungicidal properties, inhibition of tyrosine-kinase and dna repair enzyme poly (adp-ribose) polymerase (parp) and are also effective in treatment of cancer, diabetes, and par...
