Statistical inference in abstracts of 3 influential clinical pharmacology journals analysed using a text‐mining algorithm
2021
Aim To describe the trend in the prevalence of statistical inference in three influential clinical pharmacology journals METHODS: We applied a computer-based algorithm to abstracts of three clinical pharmacology journals published in 1976 to 2016 to identify statistical inference and its subtypes. Furthermore, we manually reviewed a random sample of 300 articles to access algorithm's performance in finding statistical inference in abstracts and as a screening tool for presence and absence of statistical inference in full text. Result The algorithm identified 59% (13,375/22,516 [mid p 95% CI, 59%-60%]) article abstracts with statistical inference. The percentage of abstracts with statistical…
Development of Predictive Retention-Activity Relationship Models of Barbiturates by Micellar Liquid Chromatography
2000
The need to get a tool for biological parameters estimation of new compounds for clinical applications, supports the postulation of predictive models as an alternative to conventional classical assays being no necessary the use of experimentation in animals. Our main aim in this work is to determine correlations between the logarithm of capacity factors and preclinical pharmacology and therapeutic efficacy parameters of barbiturates. The predictive and interpretative capability of quantitative chromatographic retention-biological activity models is supported by the fact that in adequate experimental conditions the solute partitioning into chromatographic system can emulate the solute partit…
The Concise Guide To Pharmacology 2021/22: G Protein-Coupled Receptors
2021
The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2021/22 is the fifth in this series of biennial publications. The Concise Guide provides concise overviews, mostly in tabular format, of the key properties of nearly 1900 human drug targets with an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links to the open access knowledgebase source of drug targets and their ligands (www.guidetopharmacology.org), which provides more detailed views of target and ligand properties. Although the Concise Guide constitutes over 500 pages, the material presented is substantially reduced compared to information and links presented on the website. It provides a permanent, citable, point-in-time record that will s…
Clinical pharmacology of citrus aurantium and citrus sinensis for the treatment of anxiety
2018
Objective. The aim of this review is to analyze preclinical and clinical studies investigating the anxiety effects ofCitrus aurantiumorCitrus sinensisessential oils (EOs).Design. The bibliographic research was made on the major scientific databases. Analysis included only articles written in English and published on peer-reviewed scientific journals describing preclinical experiments and clinical trials carried out to investigate the antianxiety effects ofCitrus aurantium or Citrus sinensisEOs on anxiety disorders. Clinical studies reporting the antianxiety effects of products containingCitrus aurantiumorCitrus sinensisEOs in combination with other active substances, including medicinal pla…
Clinical trials in children.
2006
Abstract Randomized controlled clinical trials are felt by the medical community to provide the best evidence. Participation in trials involves the possibility of obtaining benefits but also of suffering some risks. Those risks are often considered unacceptable for children but if clinical trials are not conducted in children, clinicians are forced to extrapolate study data from adults. In 1968 H. Shirkey termed children "therapeutic orphans" because of the lack of adequately tested and labeled drugs available in appropriate formulations. Research involving children entails specific difficulties as the need to study children of different ages, the small number of children affected by certai…
