There is increasing evidence that oxygen-derived free radicals produced during strenuous work by the diaphragm may contribute to diaphragm fatigue and/or injury. However, the precise identity of these oxygen radicals remains unknown, inasmuch as oxygen free radicals are extremely short lived and
The use of two methods in tandem, single-sided membrane introduction mass spectrometry (SS-MIMS) and fiber introduction mass spectrometry (FIMS), is presented as a technique for field analysis. The combined SS-MIMS-FIMS technique was employed in both a modified commercial mass spectrometer and a
Addiction and abuse of antipyretic analgesics has been recognized early after the turn of this century. The incidence markedly increased and the syndrome spread over many countries in the first half of the 20th century. The syndrome and its pathology, consisting of renal papillary necrosis and
It is suggested that free radical generation is a cause of muscle fatigue from in vitro studies. We examined whether hydroxyl radical would be generated in an in vivo fatiguing contraction of the diaphragm. Diaphragmatic fatigue was induced in rats by the in vivo rhythmic electrical stimulation of
Fifteen children (16 years and younger, 10 females, 5 males, mean age 13 years) with juvenile primary fibromyalgia syndrome (JPFS) were seen in a private rheumatology practice over two years. This represented 45 percent of the total number of pediatric rheumatology patients. Symptoms included
Gastropathy, recognized as gastric lesional disease ranging from erosions to actual ulcer craters, represents the most ubiquitous significant complication of common nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (salicylate and nonsalicylate) use. Recently, this association has been established as distinct
BACKGROUND
Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) are emerging designer drugs of abuse. Most reports on the health effects of these drugs are case reports. Unlike SCRAs, marijuana has classically been used via many routes of exposure including oral, such as in brownies. We report on 11
Polymyalgia rheumatica should be considered when a syndrome of constitutional symptoms, especially weight loss, low-grade fever, weakness, wasting proximal muscles, fatigue, malaise and depression, is seen in the elderly. Giant-cell arteritis plays a part later in the course. Thus the need for
