Morphine has been used extensively in pain management but there is no consensus about the effectiveness of method of administration. The aim of this study was to compare the divided dose vs bolus medication form of morphine sulfate for management of acute pain in traumatic fracture. Methods: we designed a randomized double-blind clinical trial. On basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria, 160 patients with acute traumatic fracture were enrolled to the study and randomly divided into two groups. The first group (bolus group) received 0.1mg/kg morphine and then 0.1mg/kg normal saline every 5 minutes. The second group (titration group) received 0.1mg/kg of morphine in divided doses every 5 minutes. All injections were intravenously. The primary outcome was pain and before of injection, 15 minutes and 60 minutes after injection were recorded. Data were analyzed using SPSS 19. Results: 77 patients included 49 (63.6%) male with mean age of 47.42 ± 13.15 years were in titration group and 83 patients included 47 males (56.6%) with mean age of 52.40 ± 15.62 years were in bolus group. The complication rate was significantly higher in bolus group (75.9% vs 53.2%, P <0.0001). The need to extra morphine injection in bolus and titration group were 62.7% and 28.6%, respectively (P <0.0001). The mean pain score before and at 15 and 60 minutes after injection were 9.56 ± 1.03, 6.61 ± 1.86 and 1.85 ± 1.13 in titration group and 9.76 ± 0.48, 6.53 ± 1.59 and 0.61 ± 0.46 in bolus group, respectively. The pain score was significantly lower in titration group at 60 minutes after injection (P <0.0001). Discussion: The results of this study showed that titration of morphine are a safe and effective method in compared with bolus administration to reducing acute pain in traumatic fracture.","PeriodicalId":7378,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Pharmacology and Pharmacy","volume":"106 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89738743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More moulds were isolated from the samples during the wet than the dry season while more yeasts were isolated during the dry than the wet season. The fungi were characterized and identified on the basis of their colonial, microscopic, biochemical and molecular characteristics as Candida albicans, Microsporum canis, Aspergillus fumigatus, Geotrichum candidum, Basidiobolus ranarum, Microsporum audouinii, Fonsecaea pedrosoi and Trichosporon cutaneum. More of the boreholes contained Candida albicans than the other isolates during both seasons. Candida albicans occurred most frequently in the water samples during both seasons while Fonsecaea pedrosoi had the lowest frequency of occurrence in the water samples during both seasons. All the isolates were resistant to Griseofulvin while they exhibited varying degree of resistance and sensitivity to the other antifungal agents used. This study indicated that the borehole water samples examined did not comply with the standard established by regulatory bodies for potable water and therefore must be adequately treated before drinking and use for domestic purposes as these fungi have been reported to cause diseases of humans and animals. Boiling, chlorination, sand filtration and exposure to ultraviolet radiation are recommended.","PeriodicalId":7378,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Pharmacology and Pharmacy","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77608534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The growing incidence of diabetes mellitus and its complications have headed to the search of novel therapeutic approaches engrossed on preventing postprandial hyperglycemia. The practice of carbohydrate breakdown enzyme inhibitors from plant resources might be a potential approach to prevent glucose absorption with the least adverse effects. Aims: The objective of the present investigation was to provide in-vitro evidence for the potential inhibitory activity of polyphenolic extract (PPE) of Ichnocarpus frutescens on amylase and glucosidase enzymes. Methods: the in the vitro inhibitory effect of polyphenolic extract (PPE) of Ichnocarpus frutescens focused on the evaluation of pancreatic amylase inhibition, rat serum amylase inhibition and rat intestinal glucosidase inhibition of polyphenolic extract (PPE) of Ichnocarpus frutescens by in vitro. The different concentrations of polyphenolic extract were subjected to amylase and glucosidase inhibitory assay and the percentage of amylase and glucosidase inhibitory activity and IC50 values were calculated. Results: Polyphenolic extract shows appreciable pancreatic amylase inhibitory activity in vitro. The extract also showed an appreciable glucosidase inhibitory effect in a concentration-dependent manner with a moderate amylase inhibitory activity. The in vitro examination of the inhibitory effect of PPE on maltase and sucrase activities revealed that PPE inhibited rat small intestine disaccharidase ( glucosidase) activity. Conclusion: Taken together, these results suggest that inhibitory effect of PPE on amylase and glucosidase activities may delay carbohydrate digestion and absorption with subsequent lowering of blood glucose level leading to prevention of postprandial hyperglycemia in diabetes and its complication.","PeriodicalId":7378,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Pharmacology and Pharmacy","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83865508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methodology: The antidepressant-like effect of the extract was evaluated in tail suspension test, at graded doses in mice. Subsequently, the probable neurobehavioural mechanism of the antidepressant-like effect of the extract was investigated by intraperitoneal pretreatment with adrenergic, serotonergic, dopaminergic, and muscarinic cholinergic receptor antagonists; GABA agonist; nitric oxide precursor and inhibitors; and using a putative neuromodulator at NMDA receptors prior to the extract administration. Results and discussion: The extract at all the doses used, significantly (p 0.05) alteration on locomotor behaviour in mice. However, the anti-immobility potential of the extract was significantly (p<0.05) reversed by prazosin, yohimbine, sulpiride, methylene blue, L-arginine and baclofen, suggesting the involvement of adrenergic, dopaminergic, GABAerargic and nitergic pathways.

The objectives of this study are to determine the correlation between treatment dose enoxaparin use and anti-Xa concentrations within the defined therapeutic range in patients receiving chronic, scheduled hemodialysis to determine the degree of change in anti-Xa concentrations in those cases where a concentration was obtained before and after a specific hemodialysis session, and to determine if there is evidence of enoxaparin accumulation over the course of treatment. This was a retrospective cohort study. Patients that were admitted to Indiana University Health facilities in a two-year period were identified from a Cerner query for inclusion eligibility. Inclusion criteria involved patients that received therapeutic dose enoxaparin based on actual body weight on a once daily basis, maintained a scheduled hemodialysis regimen, and had an anti-Xa concentration obtained after at least one enoxaparin dose.
