Adjuvant drugs for end-stage liver failure and transplantation Medical Science Monitor. End-stage liver failure is currently treatable both by dialysis and by liver transplantation, but this does not detract from its being a complex pathophysiological and pharmacological entity. More patients survive after transplant because of the impressive developments that enabled improved liver preservation, anesthesia and surgical techniques, as well as immunosuppressive drug therapy. Because of its multifaceted metabolism, liver failure can nevertheless cause a complex of pathophysiological conditions and, as such, poses a challenge for surgeons and anesthesiologists alike, not only before surgery but during transplantation as well... 2004-05-24

Irritable bowel syndrome: a model of the brain-gut interactions Medical Science Monitor. The physiology of the digestive tract, the subjective experience of symptom, health behavior, and treatment outcome are strongly affected by psychosocial factors. Recently, a biopsychosocial model of IBS containing physiological, emotional, cognitive and behavioral components has been proposed. Rapid progress in neurogastroenterology, using new brain imaging techniques, should bring better understanding of the brain-gut axis and open new therapeutic perspectives... 2004-05-19

The cocaine effects questionnaire for patient populations: Development and psychometric properties Addictive Behaviours. Outcome effect expectancies are considered a key determinant of behavior in social learning models of substance use. The present study reports the development and psychometric properties of the Cocaine Effects Questionnaire (CEQ-P), designed specifically for use with patients in treatment for substance abuse. Items generated from patients and treatment staff were Likert-rated for frequency by 178 patients in substance abuse intensive day treatment. Seven components were derived and reduced into a 33-item measure with good reliability... 2004-05-17

Myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteriogram: the role of ephedrine-like alkaloids Medical Science Monitor. Conclusions: A diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction should be seriously considered even in relatively young tobacco-smoking patients, especially after acute alcohol intoxication or cocaine, amphetamine or ephedrine exposure. It is very important to obtain a complete history of the use of such ‘safe’ drugs, which do not need to be administered by a doctor but may contain treacherous components. These data provide the necessary background for making an accurate diagnosis and appropriate decisions concerning therapy ... 2004-05-17

Histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis of lymphoid follicles in labial salivary glands in primary and secondary Sjögren’s syndrome Medical Science Monitor. Conclusions: Ectopic lymphoid follicles quite often present in labial salivary gland in SS show structural and immunohistochemical features typical for lymphoid tissue. These ectopic follicles are the place of immune complex trapping, antigen presentation on dendritic cells and initiation of autoimmunologic response. This finding seems be very important for better understanding of the pathogenesis and diagnosis of SS as an autoimmunological disorder... 2004-05-17

Is short height really a risk factor for coronary heart disease and stroke mortality? A review Medical Science Monitor. The results of this study indicate that shorter people have substantially lower rates of CHD mortality and moderately lower levels of stroke mortality. For example, shorter southern Europeans had about half the CHD mortality rate of northern Europeans. In addition, shorter ethnic groups vs taller groups in California had substantially lower mortality rates. Native American, Japanese, Indian, and Pakistani studies also showed shorter people had lower CHD and stroke incidence or mortality compared to taller people within each group... 2004-05-14

Severe preeclampsia and eclampsia in Kerman, Iran: complications and outcomes Medical Science Monitor. Conclusions: Severe preeclampsia carries a high risk of maternal and neonatal morbidities and mortality in Kerman. This risk increases in the presence of eclampsia, particularly in neglected cases who have not sought prenatal care... 2004-05-14

Cardiorespiratory parameters during conventional or gasless gynecological laparoscopy under general or regional anesthesia Medical Science Monitor. Conventional laparoscopy is aided by CO2 insufflation, which may impair the cardiorespiratory system and have life-threatening implications. This procedure is conducted under general anesthesia (GA). Gasless laparoscopy supposedly eliminates most of those disadvantages, but is technically more difficult to perform. In the present study, we compared cardiorespiratory parameters of conventional abdominal laparoscopy under GA to gasless laparoscopy under general or epidural anesthesia...Conclusions: General and regional anesthesia may be employed in gasless laparoscopy for gynecological surgery... 2004-05-14
