Research assistants are frequently excluded from authorship for several reasons—including the perception that they merely provide paid administrative help. Authorship criteria should be based on people who both shapers and doers rather than ICMJE recommendations which can differently interpreted. The pressure single-authored papers in some disciplines may lead to exclusion of substantive contri...

The market withdrawals of rofecoxib (Vioxx) and valdecoxib (Bextra) have focused considerable attention on the side effect profiles of cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors. As a result, attempts will be made to identify risk factors in the hope that physicians might be able to ensure patient safety. At first glance, CYP2C9 genotype might be considered a risk factor because many COX inhibitors are CY...

The pharmacokinetics of alprazolam (ALP) after i.v. and p.o. administration in rats were characterized. ALP decayed biexponentially after the i.v. dose (1.25 mg/kg), but the concentration-time profiles after the p.o. doses (7 and 12.5 mg/kg) exhibited a doublepeak phenomenon. The presence of two peaks was confirmed by statistical analysis of the serum concentration data of ALP, as well as by ob...
