[Clonidine in the treatment of cancer pain]
Nov 2008
Clonidine is an alpha2-adrenergic agonist with analgetic properties. Due to its side-effects, the drug is administered via the epidural or spinal route. A literature search yielded nine controlled studies on clonidine as a supplemental drug in the ... Read more...
Induced hypotension in orthognathic surgery: a comparative study of 2 pharmacological protocols.
30 Oct 2008
PURPOSE: The objective of this comparative study was to report on the use of 2 different pharmaceutical protocols involving 2 different anesthetic techniques (IV and balanced) to induce hypotension in patients submitted to orthognathic surgery by ... Read more...
Increased sympathetic reactivity may predict insulin resistance: an 18-year follow-up study.
29 Sep 2008
Insulin resistance and sympathetic activity are related by a positive feedback system. However, which precedes the other still remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the predictive role of sympathoadrenal activity in the ... Read more...
