Ulcers stomach

In 1916 Einstein completed his most widely known book on the special and the general theory of relativity, popularly explained, wrote the first paper on gravitational waves, and became president of the Deutsche Physikalische GeseJlschaft. In 1917 he became ill, suffering successively from a liver ailment, a stomach ulcer, jaundice, and general weakness, but nevertheless he managed to complete the first paper on relativistic cosmology. He did not fully recover until 1920. [Pg.384]

Caffeine (oral, nonprescription) Avoid the use of oral caffeine-containing products to stay awake if tiiere is a history of heart disease high blood pressure, or stomach ulcers. These products are intended for occasional use and should not be used if heart palpitations, dizziness, or light-headedness occurs. [Pg.251]

A breath test, used to determine the presence of Helicobacter pylori, associated with stomach ulcers, is an example of a diagnostic product involving separate drug and device components. To perform the test, a patient swallows some isotopically (e.g. [Pg.19]

In severe cases, or those refractory to treatment, truncal and limb weakness may be accompanied by involvement of masticatory, bulbar, and respiratory muscles. However the most life-threatening clinical manifestations are those affecting the gastrointestinal tract, since stomach ulceration can occur and death from perforation and peritonitis are not unknown. Medication with steroidal antiinflammatory agents is necessary but weakens the childrens resistance to infection, so that systemic spread of usually self-limiting disorders, such as candidiasis, may occasionally occur. [Pg.325]

Gastric ulcers, chronic gastritis and hiatus hernia are increasingly common conditions in old age. Both morbidity and mortality from bleeding stomach ulcers have increased in persons over 75 and this is in contrast to the lowered incidence in other... [Pg.53]

A surprising discovery was that a bacterium, Helicobacter pylori, survives and proliferates even in the acid conditions of the stomach its presence can contribute to development of stomach ulcers. The infection is difficult to treat since antibiotics are not very effective in acidic conditions. [Pg.72]

The main clinical use of H2 receptor antagonists is to inhibit gastric secretion in the treatment of stomach ulcers. These agents all contain features that relate to the histamine structure, in particular the heterocyclic ring. Cimetidine and ranitidine are the most widely used in this class. [Pg.435]

Atropine is used for stomach ulcers, pylorospasms, cholesystis, kidney stones, spasms of the bowels and urinary tract, and bronchial asthma. [Pg.197]

Over the course of the past few decades, a number of synthetic atropine-like substances with more spasmolytic and less anticholinergic action and causing fewer side effects have been used clinically in treating stomach ulcers, pylorospasms, and hyperperistaltics. [Pg.198]

Methscopolamine inhibits the muscarinic action of acetylcholine on postganlionic para sympathetic effector regions. It is used for treating stomach ulcers. Synonyms of this drag are pamine and scoline. [Pg.198]

Hj-receptor antagonists almost completely block secretion of hydrochloric acid in the stomach in response to most stimuli. These drugs play a major role in treating stomach ulcers associated with hypersecretion, because they have the ability to reduce both the volume of stomach secretion and overall acidity as well as pepsin activity. [Pg.230]

Traditional or Hj antihistamine drugs block many effects caused by histamine however, it turns out that they are not able to withstand events mediated by H2 receptors, in particular excess gastric juice secretion. In 1977 an H2-receptor antagonist, cimetidine, was proposed, which revolutionized stomach ulcer treatment. Later on, ranitidine was proposed, followed by drugs with minor structural and pharmacological differences such as famotidine and nizatidine. [Pg.230]

A number of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAID) wherein the carboxylic moiety is modified as an oxazoline have been prepared by this method. These modified NSAlDs (Table 1, entries 4-6) exhibit antiinflammatory properties. However, they are less potent than their original counterparts. Importantly, they did not reduce stomach ulceration at the efficacious dose, and therefore did not present any advantage over the original NSAID. [Pg.334]

PCR amplification has led to more sophisticated and accurate diagnostic techniques regarding diseases. This allows earlier detection of the disease compared to conventional methods, making earlier treatment possible. For example HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) may be detected by searching for the DNA sequence unique to this virus. Amplifying samples and searching for DNA associated with the bacteria responsible for the condition has identified infectious bacterial diseases. Lyme disease, certain stomach ulcers, and middle ear infections have been detected in this manner. [Pg.237]
