Dexmedetomidine: a novel drug for the treatment of atrial and junctional tachyarrhythmias during the perioperative period for congenital cardiac surgery: a preliminary study.

30 Oct 2008 BACKGROUND: Atrial and junctional tachyarrhythmias occur frequently during the perioperative period for congenital cardiac surgery and can be a cause of increased morbidity and mortality. These rhythm disturbances that may be well tolerated in a ... Read more...

In vivo exposure to high or low cortisol has biphasic effects on inflammatory response pathways of human monocytes.

30 Oct 2008 BACKGROUND: Recent studies demonstrate that glucocorticoids (GCs) have both supportive (stimulatory) and suppressive effects on immune responses, depending upon the GC concentration. Since some GC effects on inflammation are stimulatory, we ... Read more...

Multiple-day efficacy of parecoxib sodium treatment in postoperative bunionectomy pain.

30 Oct 2008 OBJECTIVE: To determine the analgesic efficacy of 1-day and multiple-day dosing regimens of parecoxib sodium (parecoxib) after bunionectomy in 2 randomized placebo-controlled studies. METHODS: The first double-blind study assessed the efficacy of ... Read more...
