Arecholine (4 milligrams), a cholinergic agonist, and choline (10 grams), a precursor of acetylcholine, significantly enhanced serial learning in normal human subjects. The subjects received methscopolamine prior to both arecholine and placebo injections. Conversely, scopolamine (0.5 milligram), a cholinergic antagonis…

A total of 100 patients were examined by both single and double contrast upper gastrointestinal radiography. The radiographs were coded, interpreted blindly by two gastrointestinal radiologists, and the accuracy of each examination was determined using endoscopy as the standard. The interpretation error rate for each t…

The efficacy of gold salt on bronchial asthma was investigated by double-blind design in 79 patients. The rate of improvement was significantly higher in the gold-treated group (20/28) than in the controls (16/36). This was reflected by greater reduction of requirement for symptomatic medications. Only mild side effect…

Dementia is a symptom complex probably arising from cerebral metabolic insufficiency. The testing of drugs thought to improve cerebral metabolism is difficult and many problems have to be overcome. Assessment of brain failure requires objective tests of intellect and memory. Subjective tests are used for disorders of p…

Sixty-five patients with recurrent aphthous stomatitis participated in a double-blind study to evaluate levamisole. Nineteen of 34 patients improved on levamisole and only five of 31 patients improved on placebo (P less than 0.004, chi-square with two degrees of freedom). After breaking the code and switching placebo p…

Clenbuterol is a beta 2-sympathomimetic bronchodilator. In a double-blind cross-over trial in 19 asthmatic patients with reversible airways obstruction, oral administration of both clenbuterol (40 microgram) and salbutamol (4 mg) caused significantly greater increased in peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) than placebo, t…

Corynebacterium parvum was administered to sixteen patients with malignant tumors submitted to repeated chemotherapy courses. A total of 428 injections of C. parvum at a dose of 3.5 mg/m2 in weekly, biweekly and monthly administration was given between the chemotherapy courses. Injection of C. parvum was followed by fe…

The effect of calcium dobesilate on capillary resistance and background retinopathy was compared with placebo in a double-blind cross-over trial on 18 diabetics. Each treatment lasted 8 months. The trial produced no evidence in favour of a significant beneficial effect of calcium dobesilate on the capillary resistance…

A total of 219 acute superficial abscesses was treated. Patients were randomly allocated to one of four treatment groups--primary suture with or without antibiotics and free drainage with or without antibiotics. No difference could be detected between the groups in duration of healing time. Eleven per cent of all absce…

A new anticholinergic aerosol, ipratropium bromide, was compared in a double-blind cross-over trial with an established preparation, deptropine citrate, and placebo in 16 patients with defined asthma or chronic bronchitis. Ipratropium bromide produced a significantly greater and more rapid bronchodilation than did dept…

In a comparative trial, buprenorphine 0-3 mg or morphine 10 mg was administered intramuscularly to patients post-operatively. The new drug buprenorphine produced more pain relief than morphine and appeared to have a longer duration of action. The side-effects produced by the two drugs were similar, as were the effect o…

1. Methodological reasons are discussed which make placebo-controlled trials on antidepressant drugs necessary. 2. The ethical problem of treating a sick patient with an inactive compound are shown to have an impact on the methodology of such trials. 3. Three double-blind placebo-controlled trials with nomifensine are…

In type II A hyperlipoproteinaemia, treatment with cholestyramine (12 g), calcium clofibrate (2 g) and a combination of calcium clofibrate and calcium carbonate (2 + 2 g) reduced the cholesterol concentration. The combination of calcium and clofibrate was at least as effective as cholestyramine. Calcium clofibrate decr…

The gastrointestinal blood loss during intake of two ampicillin esters (pivampicillin and bacampicillin) was studied in 10 male volunteers. A radioactive chromium method was used. The study was performed with a double-blind cross-over technique. Pivampicillin seemed to give a slightly higher increase in gastrointestina…

A double-blind prospective study was carried out comparing the prophylactic effect of maprotiline and lithium carbonate over a period of 1 year in patients suffering from recurrent affective disorders. The average Affective Morbidity Index was lower, but not significantly so, in patients treated with lithium. A further…
