Laxative and anti-diarrheal activity of polycarbophil in mice and rats.
We investigated the laxative and anti-diarrheal activity of polycarbophil, an insoluble hydrophilic polymer, in comparison with other agents used for treating functional bowel disorder (FBD). In naive rats, polycarbophil (500 mg/kg) increased fecal weight and water contents without producing diarrhea. Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) did not produce evident changes in bowel movement. Picosulfate ma...
متن کاملPolycarbophil Calcium Lodged in the Bronchus
A 101-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a 2-day history of productive cough and dyspnea. Chest computed tomography revealed a highly dense, club-like structure with a low-density area inside, 25×10 mm in size, obstructing the lower portion of the truncus intermedius and the right basal bronchus (Picture 1, arrows). Bronchoscopy revealed white-colored, atheromatous material in the...
متن کاملThe Fecal Microbiome in Dogs with Acute Diarrhea and Idiopathic Inflammatory Bowel Disease
BACKGROUND Recent molecular studies have revealed a highly complex bacterial assembly in the canine intestinal tract. There is mounting evidence that microbes play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute and chronic enteropathies of dogs, including idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of this study was to characterize the bacterial microbiota in dogs with various gastroin...
متن کاملPantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, increases orthodontic tooth movement in rats
Objective(s):Pantoprazole, is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) prescribed for the treatment of upper gastrointestinal disorders, which in high doses has been suggested to decrease calcium absorption leading to hypocalcaemia and therefore osteoporosis. The aim of this study was to assess whether pantoprazol, could alter the rate of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in rats. Materials and Methods: A ...
متن کاملAntitranspirant-induced increases in leaf water potential increase tuber calcium and decrease tuber necrosis in water-stressed potato plants.
Experiments were undertaken with field-grown potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants to test the hypothesis that altering leaf:tuber water potential gradients within a plant subjected to low soil moisture will allow greater Ca accumulation in tubers and reverse Ca deficiency-related tuber necrosis. Antitranspirant formulations containing a wax emulsion and a spreader/sticker surfactant increased l...
