Partial response

An alternative method for ascertaining the end of the reaction, which does not involve the removal of the cover, is to conduct the exit gas through an empty wash bottle (to eict as a trap in case of sucking back ) and then collect a sample in a test-tube over water. If an inflammable gas (hydrogen) is absent, the reaction may be considered complete. Under no circumstances should the reaction be stopped until all the sodium has completely reacted too early arrest of the reaction may result in the product containing sodium hydride, which appears to be partially responsible for the explosive properties of the impure substance ... 

Easy availabihty and the low cost of aluminum chloride are partially responsible for its wide use in industry. Although aluminum chloride is frequendy thought of as AlCl, at ordinary temperatures it is, in fact, the dimer which prevails up to 440°C between 440 and 880°C there is an... 

Handling, storage, packaging, and delivery After-sales servicing Product safety and liability Purchaser supplied equipment These requirements may not apply to all chemical manufacturing facilities. Where they are required, they are most likely the partial responsibility of the marketing function and you should work with them to establish relevant priorities. 

Highly stressed areas generally corrode faster than areas of lower stress. This is due to the fact that the more stressed areas are usually anodic and corrode more readily. The drillstem just above the drill collars is often susceptible to abnormal corrosion damage. High stresses and bending moments in this region may be partially responsible for this failure. 

Amines occur widely in all living organisms. Trimethylamine, for instance, occurs in animal tissues and is partially responsible for the distinctive odor of fish, nicotine is found in tobacco, and cocaine is a stimulant found in the South American coca bush. In addition, amino acids are the buildingblocks from which all proteins are made, and cyclic amine bases are constituents of nucleic acids.

A number of rationally designed MMP inhibitors have shown some promise in the treatment of pathologies, which MMPs are suspected to be involved in. However, most of these, such as Marimastat (BB-2516), a broad spectrum MMP inhibitor, or trocade (Ro 32-3555), an MMP-1 selective inhibitor, have performed poorly in clinical trials. The failure of Marimastat was partially responsible for the folding of British Biotech, which developed it. The failure of... 

The first inhibitor of NHE, amiloride, was identified in 1982. This drug is a potassium-sparing diuretic that also inhibits the sodium-calcium exchanger and the conductive Na+ channel. Not all the NHE isoforms are inhibited equally by amiloride NHE1 and 2 are responsive, NHE5 is partially responsive and NHE3, 4 and 7 are resistant. Other weak and non-specific inhibitors are clonidine and cimetidine. 

Examine the page before you Not the words, but the material itself, paper. We often take this product for granted, but paper-making is one of the most important developments in the advance of civilization. According to legend, the first sheets of paper were made from mulberry leaves in China in AD 105. For many centuries paper was made in individual sheets, so it was a rare and expensive commodity. Paper-making machines were first developed in the early years of the nineteenth century. The development of machinery that allowed high-speed paper production was partially responsible for the increase in literacy and education of people around the world. 

To date, clozapine remains the only drug with proven and superior efficacy in treatment-resistant patients, and it is currently the only drug approved for the treatment-resistant schizophrenic. Studies have shown a response of approximately 30% to 50% in these well-defined treatment-resistant patients. Clinical trials have consistently found clozapine to be superior to traditional antipsychotics for treatment-refractory patients, and it is efficacious even after nonresponse to other SGAs and in partially responsive patients. It is often rapidly effective even in those who have had a poor response to other medication for years. Recent studies have demonstrated that it has a beneficial effect for aggression and suicidality, which led to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the treatment of suicidal behavior in people with psychosis.41... 

Approximately 30% of patients treated with clozapine will not respond, and another 30% will have only a partial response to the drug. Treatment options with other medications are limited...

Assess patients for improvement of anxiety symptoms and for return to baseline occupational, social, and interpersonal functioning. With effective treatment, the patient should have no or minimal symptoms of anxiety or depression. While drug therapy is being initiated, evaluate patients more frequently to ensure tolerability and response. Increase the dose in patients exhibiting a partial response after 2 to 4 weeks on an antidepressant or 2 weeks on a benzodiazepine. Individualize the duration of treatment because some patients require up to one year of treatment.27... 

The response to chemotherapy may be referred to as complete response, partial response, stable disease, or disease progression.
