13. Bilateral recurrent orbital inflammation associated with retroperitoneal fibrosclerosis.
Orbital inflammation initially presented in a patient who five years later developed renal obstruction from retroperitoneal fibrosclerosis. Biopsy revealed infiltration of chronic lymphocytic cells in the orbit and dense fibrous connective tissue in the pelvis. Episodes of proptosis were controlled with systemic steroids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory a

14. Chemical gastritis and Helicobacter pylori related gastritis in patients receiving non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: comparison and correlation with peptic ulceration.
AIMS: To evaluate the prevalence and significance of chemical gastritis, in comparison with gastritis related to Helicobacter pylori in patients receiving non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). METHODS: Two hundred and eighteen patients were studied, 174 of whom were taking NSAIDs. Chemical gastritis was defined as the presence of foveolar hyperplas

15. Effects of altering dietary essential fatty acids on requirements for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: a double blind placebo controlled study.
In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) benefit from non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is mediated through inhibition of the cyclo-oxygenase enzyme, thereby decreasing production of the 2 series prostaglandins (PGs). The lipoxygenase enzyme is intact, however, allowing leucotriene (LT) production, e.g., LTB4 (an inflammatory mediator). Treatment with eveni

16. The arthritis of mixed connective tissue disease.
Twenty patients with mixed connective tissue disease were followed for 5 years. Arthritis occurred in all 20 patients, being the presenting complaint in 11 patients. The joints most frequently involved were the proximal interphalangeal (PIP), metacarpophalangeal (MCP), wrists, metatarsophalangeal (MTP), and knee; the distribution tended to be symmetrical, mi

17. Spontaneous hyphema associated with anterior uveitis.
Few reports have described hyphema in association with anterior uveitis. Five cases of anterior chamber haemorrhage are reported in patients with five different anterior uveitic entities: Reiter's syndrome, juvenile chronic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, idiopathic anterior uveitis, and herpes simplex. Hyphema has been reported in association with idiopa

18. Calcium absorption in rheumatoid arthritis.
Calcium absorption, assessed by a double isotope method, was found to be impaired in postmenopausal women with rheumatoid arthritis of recent onset (mean 14.2 months) compared with controls. Circulating levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (calcitriol) were higher than in controls, suggesting a primary malabsorption of calcium in these patients. The reduction i

19. Anhydride Prodrug of Ibuprofen and Acrylic Polymers
The objective of this study was to synthesize anhydride prodrugs for carboxylic-acid-bearing agents such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, shield the carboxylic acid group from irritative effects, and obtain sustained release patterns. Ibuprofen was used as a representative drug for anhydride derivatization. Conjugates of ibuprofen with carboxylic ac

20. Characterization of an outward potassium current in canine jejunal circular smooth muscle and its activation by fenamates.
1. A perforated patch clamp technique was used to study an outward potassium current in freshly dissociated circular smooth muscle cells of the canine jejunum. 2. A voltage-dependent outward current was identified which was highly potassium selective, weakly holding voltage sensitive, increased its open probability at -65 mV, and reached unit open probabilit

21. The pathophysiology of medication errors: how and where they arise
Errors arise when an action is intended but not performed; errors that arise from poor planning or inadequate knowledge are characterized as mistakes; those that arise from imperfect execution of well-formulated plans are called slips when an erroneous act is committed and lapses when a correct act is omitted.Some tasks are intrinsically prone to error.

22. Potentiation of heat stress-induced hsp70 expression in vivo by aspirin
Studies in cultured cells have demonstrated that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents can potentiate heat-induced hsp70 expression through activation of HSF1 to a DNA binding state. We investigated the influence of aspirin on hsp70 expression in intact rats subjected to heat stress. Rats were injected intraperitoneally either with aspirin (100 mg/kg) or ve
