چکیده
Fifty-nine (42 %) of 140 schizophrenic patients taking phenothiazines were found to have abnormal electrocardiograms. The abnormalities included T wave changes, S-T depression, P-R and Q-T prolongation, persistent sinus tachycardia (110 or more/min) and right bundle branch block. In forty-eight (34%) of the fifty-nine patients, the ECG abnormalities disappeared after stopping the phenothiazine and reappeared on its resumption.

10H-phenothiazines are prepared by Smiles rearrangement. These prepared phenothiazines are used as base to prepare ribofuranosides by treatment with β-Dribofuranosyl-1-acetate-2,3,5-tribenzoate. 10H-Phenothiazines on refluxing with hydrogen peroxide in glacial acetic acid gave 10H-phenothiazine-5,5-dioxides. Their antioxidant and antimicrobial activity have been carried out. The structure of th...

The gram-negative soil bacillus Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, a severe and potentially fatal septicemic disease that is endemic to Southeast Asia and northern Australia. Its intrinsic resistance to many antibiotics is attributed mainly to the presence of several drug efflux pumps, and therefore, inhibitors of such pumps are expected to restore the activities o...
