Different IS research methods focus on or measure different aspects of IS phenomena, and studies based on various methodologies thus contribute to the accumulation of strong evidence to support IS theories. We conducted a systematic and reproducible review of ten years of Critical Incident Technique (“CIT”) papers published in the IS Scholars Basket of eight journals. CIT is used extensively in...

There are more than 2,500 Crisis Intervention Teams (CIT) in operation across the country. Results of research on the effectiveness and impact of CIT are mixed. One aspect of CIT training that has yet to be examined is the expert-derived suggestion that 40 consecutive hours of training is an essential element of CIT for law enforcement officers. That is, CIT training is delivered in one 40-hour...

Cancer immunotherapy (CIT) initiates or enhances the host immune response against cancer. Following decades of development, patients with previously few therapeutic options may now benefit from CIT. Although the quantitative clinical pharmacology (qCP) of previous classes of anticancer drugs has matured during this time, application to CIT may not be straightforward since CIT acts via the immun...

Previous experimental studies have highlighted that citrulline (CIT) could be a promising pharmaconutrient. However, its pharmacokinetic characteristics and tolerance to loading have not been studied to date. The objective was to characterise the plasma kinetics of CIT in a multiple-dosing study design and to assess the effect of CIT intake on the concentrations of other plasma amino acids (AA)...

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE There is great interindividual variability in citalopram (CIT) pharmacokinetics. We attempted to establish a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model of CIT in Chinese healthy subjects, to evaluate the effect of genetic polymorphism on CIT pharmacokinetics and to compare the PPK and non-compartmental (NCA) assays in the estimation of CIT bioequivalence. METHODS Blood...

BACKGROUND Circinal-icaritin (CIT), one new active aglycone of Epimedium, can exert a beneficial effect on osteoporotic bone. However, its low bioavailability limits its clinical efficacy for the treatment of osteoporosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this paper, suet oil (SO) was used to improve the oral bioavailability of CIT and enhance its antiosteoporosis effect and absorption. After oral ad...

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of l-citrulline (Cit) and l-arginine (Arg) supplementation on nitric oxide (NO) biomarkers, pulmonary O2 uptake (V̇o2) kinetics, and exercise performance. In a randomized, placebo (Pla)-controlled, crossover study, 10 healthy adult men completed moderate- and severe-intensity cycling exercise on days 6 and 7 of a 7-day supplementation period w...

Different IS research methods focus on or measure different aspects of IS phenomena, and diversity of methods within and across studies contributes to the accumulation of strong evidence to support IS theories. We conducted a systematic and reproducible review of ten years of Critical Incident Technique (“CIT”) studies published in the IS Scholars Basket of eight journals. CIT is used extensive...

Citrulline (Cit) supplementation was proposed to serve as a therapeutic intervention to restore arginine (Arg) concentrations and improve related functions in sepsis. This study explored whether citrulline had positive effects on liver injury and cytokine release in the early stages of sepsis. The cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model was utilized in our study. Rats were divided into four gro...
