Lake sediments are “hot spots” of methane production in the landscape. However, regional and global lake emissions, contributing to greenhouse effect, poorly known. We developed predictions emissions from easily measured characteristics based on measurements for 11 North American 13 Swedish lakes, literature values 49 lakes. Results suggest that open water emission can be predicted variables such as area, depth, concentrations total phosphorus, dissolved organic carbon, methane, anoxic...
Six depressed patients free of recent serious suicidal ideation developed intense, violent preoccupation after 2-7 weeks fluoxetine treatment. This state persisted for as little 3 days to long months discontinuation fluoxetine. None these had ever experienced a similar during treatment with any other psychotropic drug.
Opiates were used to treat major depression until the mid-1950s. The advent of opioids with mixed agonist-antagonist or partial agonist activity, reduced dependence and abuse liabilities, has made possible reevaluation for this indication. This is potential importance population depressed patients who are unresponsive intolerant conventional antidepressant agents. Ten subjects treatment-refractory, unipolar, nonpsychotic, treated opioid buprenorphine in an open-label study. Three unable...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the novel antidepressant venlafaxine for management treatment-resistant unipolar depression. We gave unblinded 84 consecutive outpatients and inpatients who met DSM-III-R criteria major depression had failed respond at least three adequate trials antidepressants from two different classes or electroconvulsive therapy, plus one attempt augmentation. Patients were evaluated after a drug free period baseline regular intervals with 21-item Hamilton Rating...
Molindone hydrochloride, a dihydroindolone neuroleptic, is structurally distinct from other classes of neuroleptics. exhibits many similarities to neuroleptics, including dopamine receptor blockade, antipsychotic efficacy, and extrapyramidal side effects. Despite these similarities, molindone also has atypical properties inhibits the enzyme monoamine oxidase in vitro vivo. Several studies have shown that causes less supersensitivity than neuroleptics thus may be likely cause tardive...
The impact of organisms on oxygen is one the most dramatic examples ecosystem engineering Earth. In aquatic systems, which have much lower concentrations than atmosphere, vascular plants can affect significantly not only long time scales but also less a day. Aquatic are generally thought as adding to systems through photosynthesis, varies greatly with plant morphology. Floating-leaved that vent atmosphere strongly deplete oxygen. some ecosystems where floating-leaved replaced submersed...
In this study mean 4 p.m. cortisol levels were significantly higher in patients with major depression than control subjects or bipolar dysthymic-related disorders. Moreover, the distribution of values differed among groups. Eighteen 45 had 10 micrograms/dl more, compared 2 20 depressed and 0 31 controls. Patients very high (15 more) tended to fulfill criteria for mood-congruent psychosis. The group also suggested existence three subgroups. authors discuss implications these data.
Although the efficacy of chlorpromazine and other phenothiazine derivatives in treatment schizophrenic psychotic reactions has been established for almost a decade, there remain differences opinion regarding which symptoms behaviours are affected favourably by psychopharmacologic treatment. By large, phenothiazines have characterized as “ataractics” or “tranquillizers”, implication being that their predominant action is to calm excited patients relieving patient's anxiety forms psychic...
Physicians are often faced with the problem of determining whether long-stay schizophrenics require continuous treatment tranquillizers. Prolonged ingestion ataractics has both physical and economic disadvantages. Recent reports on oculo-cutaneous changes (3, 13, 20, 27, 28), persistent dyskinesia (6, 18) sudden deaths (16, 25) have focused attention potential dangers prolonged use tranquillizing medication. On other hand, discontinuation medication may lead to recurrence acute psychotic...
A great deal of attention has been given to declining species diversity in terrestrial systems, and certainly the rate loss tropical forests is staggering.Recently, increasing focused on aquatic ecosystems.Indeed, Ricciardi Rasmussen (1999) report that freshwater extinctions North America far exceed environments.For example, an number fish bivalves are being added endangered lists (Angermeier Schlosser 1995, Strayer et al. 1996).In contrast our knowledge bivalves, information or even...
Depression among elderly people with reversible cognitive loss often manifests concomitant vascular disease and can also precede the development of nonvascular degenerative dementia. Little is known about etiological factors for or irreversible dementias in older depressed people. The amino acid homocysteine (HC), which both a risk factor precursor excitotoxic acids cysteine homocysteic acid, could play role pathophysiology such individuals. Twenty‐seven acute inpatients by DSM‐III‐R...
