The objective was to define the overall treatment expectations of migraineurs. Many studies have defined the expectations of patients regarding their acute migraine treatment but little information is available regarding overall expectations. During routine first visits to the author's headache
OBJECTIVE
The pharmacology, antimicrobial activity, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, clinical efficacy, safety, and place in therapy of ceftobiprole are reviewed.
CONCLUSIONS
Ceftobiprole, a novel, broad-spectrum, parenteral cephalosporin, inhibits the cell-wall synthesis of penicillin-binding
OBJECTIVE
We describe the clinical and etiological profile of patients with Fahr's syndrome (FS).
METHODS
Charts of sixteen patients diagnosed with FS between 1999 and 2014 were retrospectively assessed.
RESULTS
The mean age at diagnosis was 44.68 years (11-67 years). The most main presenting
Clinical and in vitro data indicate that cefepime, a fourth-generation cephalosporin, may be a valuable addition in the treatment of serious infections. In this study, hospitalized patients with complicated and uncomplicated urinary tract infection (UTI), for which parenteral therapy was
BACKGROUND
Antibodies to neutrophil-specific antigens are the best characterized cause of transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI).
METHODS
A double-apheresis platelet (PLT) component was divided and transfused into two patients. One experienced chills, rigors, and dyspnea and the other
The diagnostic and therapeutic potential of intravenous adenosine was studied in 64 patients during 92 episodes of regular sustained tachycardia. In 40 patients who had narrow complex tachycardias (QRS less than 0.12 s) adenosine (2.5-25 mg) restored sinus rhythm in 25 with junctional tachycardias
BACKGROUND
In fixed-dose studies, vardenafil 5, 10, and 20mg improves erectile function in men with erectile dysfunction (ED). Here, the efficacy and tolerability of vardenafil when used in a flexible-dose regimen was assessed.
METHODS
In this multicenter trial, 323 patients randomly received
OBJECTIVE

METHODS
In a retrospective pooled subgroup analysis of randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, men from the general population with ED received either
Bacterial meningitis is a life-threatening condition that requires quick and definitive diagnosis. Bacterial cultures from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) return with a negative result as treatment with antimicrobials are sometimes started before sampling of CSF can be obtained which makes isolating the
Double fenestration of the anterior communicating artery (ACoA) complex associated with an aneurysm is a very rare finding and is usually caused by ACoA duplication and the presence of a median artery of the corpus callosum (MACC). We present a patient in whom double fenestration was not associated
BACKGROUND
Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor drugs produce vasodilatation by inhibiting the breakdown of cyclic guanosine monophosphate and have proven efficacy in treating erectile dysfunction (ED).
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of vardenafil in men with moderate to
In clinical practice, intravenous immunoglobulin therapy (IVIG) is used in the management of a wide variety of medical conditions. Observational studies examining IVIG use in routine clinical practice are therefore an important means of validating findings from more strictly randomized controlled
