A multicentre, placebo-controlled, double-blind, cross-over study conducted in general practice on 100 patients has shown clonidine to have a statistically highly significant effect in controlling the number and the severity and duration of menopausal flushes. The relatively mild side effects and the absence of potentially harmful oestrogenic effects suggest that clonidine in the dose range 25 ...

Development of a mild (35 °C, no Brønsted acids) tandem Wacker oxidation-dehydrogenation of terminal olefins was accomplished using palladium(II) and hypervalent iodine co-catalysis. The reaction affords linear aryl and alkyl α,β-unsaturated ketones directly from readily available terminal olefins in good yields (average 75% per step) with excellent functional group tolerance and chemo- and ste...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent animal studies showed that mild resuscitative hypothermia improves neurological outcome when applied after cardiac arrest. In a 3-year randomized, prospective, multicenter clinical trial, we hypothesized that mild resuscitative cerebral hypothermia (32 degrees C to 34 degrees C core temperature) would improve neurological outcome after cardiac arrest. METHODS We ...

background marine sponge/nano-cuo as a natural catalyst efficiently catalyzed the sulfonylation reaction of p-chlorobenzene sulfonyl chlorides with amines in order to prepare sulfonamides. the advantages included use of a natural catalyst, ease of handling, requirement of a very small amount of catalyst, mild reaction condition and appropriateness to high yield. objectives the current study aim...

Background and Purpose—Recent animal studies showed that mild resuscitative hypothermia improves neurological outcome when applied after cardiac arrest. In a 3-year randomized, prospective, multicenter clinical trial, we hypothesized that mild resuscitative cerebral hypothermia (32°C to 34°C core temperature) would improve neurological outcome after cardiac arrest. Methods—We lowered patients’ ...

BACKGROUND Dizziness is highly prevalent among older people and associated with many health factors. The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of and factors related to dizziness among community-dwelling older adults in Sweden. In contrast to previous studies, the subjects with dizziness were divided into two groups, mild and substantial dizziness, according to the frequency and inte...

this study was designed to develop a modified tbi weight drop model for induction of focal mild cerebral injury. a stereotaxic coupled weight drop device was designed. principle arm of device carries up to 500g weights which their force was conveyed to animal skull through a thin nail like metal tip. to determine the optimal configuration of the device to induce mild tbi, six different trials w...

objective: to determine the effects of pre-injury consumption of anti-platelet agents on the 30-day outcomes of patients with mild traumatic brain injury (tbi). methods: this prospective cohort study was conducted at three general hospitals in tehran, iran between july 2013 and july 2014. the study population included all patients with mild tbi aged over 18 years that medicated with aspirin or ...

During endurance exercise, most (≈75%) of the energy derived from the oxidation of metabolic fuels and ATP hydrolysis of muscle contraction is liberated as heat, the accumulation of which leads to an increase in body temperature. For example, the temperature of exercising muscles can rise to 40°C. Although severe heat injury can be deleterious, several beneficial effects of mild heat stress (HS...

The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence dry eye symptoms in Swedish population using a web-based version ocular surface disease index (OSDI). A OSDI questions implemented an online form software developed by Artologik. link distributed via Linnaeus University social media pages. Basic demographic information such as age, sex and county residence also collected. total 404 complet...
