    Notes: Summary Cadralazine (ISF 2469) was administered to 24 hypertensive patients in single oral doses of 7.5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 mg, according to a single-blind, placebo-controlled, within-patient change-over design. The study was done in 2 stages: in the first a range including the upper and lower doses was studied (7.5, 15, 30 mg and placebo), and in the second the range of doses was restricted (10, 15, 20 mg and placebo). The drug produced a significant decrease in blood pressure in the supine and standing positions. The decrease became clinically important starting from the 15 mg dose. Its action was still significant 12 h after administration. A significant increase in heart rate was also observed. All the effects were correlated with the dose. Side effects occurred mainly after the 30 mg dose. Thus, cadralazine, in a single oral dose in man, showed good antihypertensive activity starting from the 15 mg dose, and its effect was dose-related, slow in onset and long-lasting.

    Notes: Summary We investigated anti-rheumatoid arthritis-associated nuclear antigens (RANA) and other anti-Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) antibodies in a uniquely controlled study in female Pima Indians of Arizona, an RA prone population. Four groups of age and sex-matched individuals were formulated: (1) individuals positive for rheumatoid factor (RF) who had clinical evidence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); (2) individuals seropositive for RF, but without arthritis; (3) individuals seronegative for RF, but with various kinds of arthritis; (4) those seronegative without arthritis. The mean anti-RANA in the seropositive RA group was significantly above those of the other groups but the anti-VCA and anti-EBNA titers did not differ. The anti-RANA was shown to be independent of RF. Comparing the Pima Indians to Caucasians in La Jolla, we found the mean anti-RANA titers of the Pimas to be significantly higher than those of the Caucasians. This study thus establishes clearly that elevated anti-RANA titers are characteristic of this American Indian group, just as they are of Caucasian groups. The elevated anti-RANA titers in RA patients may represent a unique hyper-responsiveness to this antigen, since there is no consistency in the reported levels of antibodies to other EBV-related antigens.
