Comparison of high dose inhaled steroids, low dose inhaled steroids plus low dose theophylline, and low dose inhaled steroids alone in chronic asthma in general practice.
BACKGROUND Theophylline is widely used in the treatment of asthma, and there is evidence that theophylline has anti-inflammatory or immunomodulatory effects. A study was undertaken to determine whether theophylline added to low dose inhaled steroids would be as efficacious as high dose inhaled steroids in asthma. METHODS In a study in general practice of 155 recruited asthmatic patients with ...
متن کاملLow-Dose Steroids in ARDS
The recent study by Dr. Meduri and colleagues (April 2007)1 regarding treatment of severe ARDS with steroids has critical flaws in the presentation and analysis of the data. The methylprednisolone and control groups differed significantly in the proportion of patients who had catecholamine-dependent shock (CDS) at baseline in the treatment group (15 of 63 patients, 23.8%) vs those in the contro...

متن کاملHigh dose of bolus iron vs. low dose of weekly infusion: bolusing high dose, a recipe for iron toxicity?
Sir, We read with interest the article by Kosch et al. w1x comparing the i.v. infusion of iron sucrose with iron gluconate in patients on haemodialysis. Although this study provides some direct comparative analysis between two forms of parenteral iron compounds, the implication that iron sucrose being a monthly bolus dose might be better than the more frequently, Nephrol Dial Transplant (2002) ...
متن کاملRBE vs. dose for low doses of high-let radiations.
According to track theory, the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of high linear energy transfer (LET) radiations varies with cellular radiosensitivity parameters and the radiation environment. Of special interest is that the RBE varies as the dose of high-LET radiation to the power (1/m - 1) where m is the "target number" parameter, which varies from 2-4 in different cell lines. This appl...
