The study was done in 60 diabetic patients. These patients were divided into two groups, Group I (n=30) receiving Magnesium and Metformin therapy for a period of 16 weeks and Group II (n=30) receiving only Metformin therapy. The blood samples were collected and analyzed for Serum Magnesium and fasting blood glucose at 0, 4, 8, 16 weeks respectively. In GROUP I Mean Baseline value for S. Magnesi...

Amlodipine is a commonly prescribed calcium channel blocker for the treatment of hypertension and ischemic heart disease. The drug is slowly cleared in humans primarily via dehydrogenation of its dihydropyridine moiety to a pyridine derivative (M9). Results from clinical drug-drug interaction studies suggest that CYP3A4/5 mediate metabolism of amlodipine. However, attempts to identify a role of...

A high intake of fruit and vegetables (FV) is associated with reduced risk of chronic disease, although the evidence base is mostly observational. Blood biomarkers offer an objective indicator of FV intake, potentially improving estimates of intakes based on traditional methods. A valid biomarker of overall FV intake would be able to confirm population intakes, more precisely evaluate the assoc...

State’s 66,511 square miles is rural. In 1994, there were 1.6 million women aged 10–49 in the state, and 17% of them lived in rural areas.5 The state has a long history of legal access to abortion, but the number of providers in rural Washington State has always been limited and has declined further in recent years. In 1983, only 10 of the state’s 28 rural counties had a provider; there were 19...
