Nemonoxacin, a novel nonfluorinated quinolone, exhibits potent in vitro and in vivo activities against community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) pathogens, including multidrug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. Patients with mild to moderate CAP (n = 265) were randomized to receive oral nemonoxacin (750 mg or 500 mg) or levofloxacin (500 mg) once daily for 7 days. Clinical responses were determined a...

Di(n-butyl) phthalate (DBP), a widely used plasticizer suspected of having estrogenic properties, was investigated for its effects on the prenatal and early neonatal development of the reproductive tract. Pregnant CD rats (n = 10) were given DBP at 0, 250, 500, or 750 mg/kg/day (p.o.) throughout pregnancy and lactation until their offspring were at postnatal day 20. Maternal body weights throug...

Purpose. To compare the changes of anterior segment parameters, assessed by swept source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) after combined Trabectome-cataract surgery and Trabectome-only surgery in open angle glaucoma patients. Methods. Thirty-eight eyes of 24 patients with open angle glaucoma were scanned with swept source AS-OCT before and 4 weeks after combined Trabectome...

We previously demonstrated the safety and efficacy of fluoroquinolone-macrolide combination therapy in category II chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP). The aim of this study is to retrospectively compare the microbiological and clinical findings of two treatment schemes for CBP based on the combination of azithromycin (500 mg, thrice-weekly) with a once-daily 500- or 750-mg dose of ciprofloxaci...

BACKGROUND Lenalidomide treatment in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) may lead to thrombocytopenia and dose reductions/delays. This study evaluated the safety and tolerability of the thrombopoietin mimetic romiplostim and its effects on the incidence of clinically significant thrombocytopenic events (CSTEs) in lower risk MDS patients receiving lenalidomide. METHODS Patients were assigned to wee...

Acetazolamide is used to prevent acute mountain sickness (AMS). We assessed efficacy and harm of acetazolamide for the prevention of AMS, and tested for dose-responsiveness. We systematically searched electronic databases (until April 2011) for randomized trials comparing acetazolamide with placebo for the prevention of AMS. For each dose, risk ratios were aggregated using a Mantel-Haenszel fix...

Echinacea is a perennial plant that used for its phytotherapeutic potential. crops are often affected by invasive weeds. One of the most effective strategies in weed control use chemicals such as herbicides. However, herbicides also affect physiological and morphological processes Echinacea. For this reason, aim study was to determine effects different dosages (0, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250 g ha...
