To assess the efficacy of corticosteroid therapy for sudden-onset sensorineural hearing loss at lower frequencies. Retrospective, nonrandomized, controlled study. The recovery rate, recovery/improvement rate, and period between the start of therapy and improvement of symptoms were studied in 2 groups:
To analyse the effects of short-term treatment with etidronate on the glucocorticoid-induced retardation of bone growth and deterioration of bone structure in the prepubertal rat mandible. Fifty 5-week-old male rats were divided into five groups. Etidronate or vehicle treatment (5
Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is the most frequently occurring type of secondary osteoporosis. Antagonists of β-adrenergic receptors are now considered to be potential drugs under investigation for osteoporosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of propranolol, a
Previously we showed that glycation-induced inactivation and loss of antigenicity of enzymes occur simultaneously. Alpha-crystallin, a major structural protein of the mammalian lens, prevents the aggregation of other proteins and protects enzyme function against post-translational modification in vitro. However, it
Abnormal action potential (AP) recovery from adaptation was manifested as increased recovery (iR) or decreased recovery (dR) relative to the normal recovery range. dR was not analyzed statistically due to the very small number of cases. iR is considered an
