    Physical effects of negative air ions in a wet sauna (1997)

    Notes: Abstract  The physical effects of negative air ions on humans were determined in an experimental sauna room equipped with an ionizer. Thirteen healthy persons took a wet sauna bath (dry bulb temperature 42° C, relative humidity 100%, 10 min exposure) with or without negative air ions. The subjects were not told when they were being exposed to negative air ions. There were no differences in the moods of these persons or changes in their blood pressures between the two saunas. The surface temperatures of the foreheads, hands, and legs in the sauna with negative ions were significantly higher than those in the sauna without ions. The pulse rates and sweat produced in the sauna with ions were singificantly higher than those in the sauna without ions. The results suggest that negative ions may amplify the effects on humans of the sauna.

    Ceruletide therapy in action tremor following thalamic hemorrhage (1993)
    Springer
    Journal of neurology 240 (1993), S. 144-148 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1459
    Keywords: Ceruletide ; Cholecystokinin ; Thalamic tremor ; Action tremor ; Posteroventral lateral nucleus

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Two men, aged 63 and 71 years, developed a gross action tremor and dysesthesias several months after an intracerebral hemorrhage. CT and MRI showed a small hemorrhage in the posterior region of the lateral nucleus of the thalamus in each patient. The tremor occurred on movement, had frequencies of 2.5-4.5 Hz and the amplitude varied depending on the joint position of the limb. Ceruletide (a cholecystokinin analog) 0.8 μg/kg i.m. produced a marked reduction in the action tremor and improved motor function. This effect appeared 10 15 min after the injection, and lasted for up to 4 weeks. It is suggested that ceruletide may be of value in the treatment of action tremors following a thalamic lesion.

    Inflammatory changes in affected muscles of facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (1987)
    Springer
    Journal of neurology 234 (1987), S. 408-411 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1459
    Keywords: Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy ; Mononuclear cell infiltration ; Monoclonal antibody analysis

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary A 34-year-old man developed slowly progressive muscular wasting of facioscapulohumeral (FSH) distribution with marked asymmetry. Clinical features, family history and laboratory findings were consistent with the diagnosis of FSH dystrophy. However, muscle biopsy revealed an inflammatory reaction with perivascular and endomysial infiltrate, myophagocytosis and invasion of the fibres by mononuclear cells. Monoclonal antibody analysis of the phenotypes of cells in the biopsy specimen suggested that cell-mediated immune response may occur during muscle fibre injury in FSH dystrophy.

    Sweat function in Parkinson's disease (1994)
    Springer
    Journal of neurology 241 (1994), S. 573-576 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1459
    Keywords: Axon reflex ; Ceruletide ; Parkinson's disease ; Sweat function ; Sympathetic skin response

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Sweat function was studied in patients with Parkinson's disease and in normal adults by sympathetic skin response, the bromphenol blue printing method and the silicone mould method. In patients with Parkinson's disease, dysfunction of sweating was classified into two types: one type involved the postganglionic fibres and the other involved the preganglionic fibres or the central nervous system. The latter was observed in patients with milder disease and the former was observed in patients with severe disease. The progressive involvement of sweat function in Parkinson's disease may reflect spread from the central nervous system or preganglionic fibres to postganglionic fibres. In a few patients the results of sweat tests were normal. Ceruletide increased sweating in Parkinson's disease patients, and decreased the prolonged latency of the sympathetic skin response. It is hypothesized that ceruletide facilitates the preserved somatosympathetic reflex of sweating.
