BACKGROUND The International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Form (IKDC SKF) is a patient-reported knee-specific outcome measure that has been shown to be a reliable, valid, and responsive measure for patients with a variety of knee conditions. Further testing is required to compare the reliability and responsiveness of the IKDC SKF to other commonly used patient-reported outcome m...

in the present study, interactions of dopamine receptor agonists and antagonists with water swimming stress (wss) on naloxone-induced jumping in morphine-dependent mice were examined. mice were rendered dependent as described in the methods section. the opioid receptor antagonist, naloxone (1 mg/kg), was injected to elicit jumping (as a withdrawal sign). the first group exposed to wss in the pr...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder, characterized by loss of dopominergic (DA) neurons in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc), and can be experimentally mimicked by the neurotoxin MPP(+) in vitro models. In this study, we investigated the potential protective effect of SKF-96365, a non-specific inhibitor of SOCE (store-operated calcium entry), on M...

Parameter errors in orbital models can result in poor orbit determination (OD) using a traditional Kalman filter. One approach to account for these errors is to consider them in the so-called Schmidt-Kalman filter (SKF), by augmenting the state covariance matrix (CM) with additional parameter covariance rather than additively estimating these so-called “consider” parameters. This paper introduc...

Penelitian mengenai pengukuran massa lemak menggunakan alat Skinfold Caliper (SKF) dan Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) pada atlet sudah banyak dilakukan. Keakuratan metode skinfold caliper tergantung teknik pengukuran, keahlian, pengalaman dari pengukur, sedangkan BIA lebih ringkas, hemat waktu, mudah digunakan. Tujuan adalah untuk menganalisis perbedaan rata-rata persentase tubuh antara...

It has been found that, like Atabrine, the phenothiazine tranquilizers promazine, chlorpromazine, promethazine, levopromethazine, and Stelazine; the antidepressants (dibenz-azepine and dibenzocycloheptene derivatives) Tofranil, Pertofrane, cyclobenzaprine, Elavil, protriptyline, and 3-chlorodibenzocycloheptene; and the acridine derivatives acridine orange, acriflavin, SKF no. 16214-A2, SKF no. ...

SKF 82526-J, or fenoldopam, a benzazepine derivative, is a selective dopamine-1 (DA-1) agonist devoid of activity at dopamine-2, alpha- or beta-adrenergic receptors. We studied SKF 82526-J in 10 patients with essential hypertension and five normal control subjects on constant 150-meq sodium, 60 meq potassium intake. In the hypertensive patients, during a 6-d placebo period supine blood pressure...

Long-term potentiation (LTP) of C-fiber-evoked field potentials in spinal dorsal horn may be relevant to pathological pain. Our previous work has shown that the late phase of the spinal LTP is protein synthesis-dependent. Considerable evidence has accumulated that dopamine D1/D5 receptors are important for late-phase LTP in hippocampus. In this study, the role of D1/D5 receptors in LTP of C-fib...
