Abstract:
The majority of research on the placebo effect has focused on beneficial effects in patients or participants told to expect an active treatment, but who are actually given a placebo. Two important and relatively understudied aspects of the placebo effect are the extent to which expectancies influence outcomes in double-blind randomised placebo-controlled trials (RCTs) and whether the placebo effect contributes to treatment side effects. The current project investigated these two issues in both clinical and experimental settings. The first study involved reanalysing a double-blind RCT of naltre

Abstract:
There is a significant current need to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of the side-effects caused by widely-used pharmaceuticals. Examples include the acute nephrotoxicity and irreversible ototoxicity promoted by the cationic drugs gentamicin and cisplatin. Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used for the prevention and treatment of life-threatening gram-negative bacterial infections, such as tuberculosis and meningitis. Cisplatin is used to treat a broad spectrum of cancers including head and neck, ovarian, cervical, stomach, bladder, sarcoma, lymphoma, testicular cancer and others.

Abstract:
Side effect warnings contribute directly to the burden of side effects. This occurs via the nocebo effect whereby negative outcomes are shaped by features of the treatment context, beyond the direct actions of the active treatment. Some studies have found that positive framing of warnings – stating the proportion of people who will not experience the side effect – reduces side effects compared to the more common-place negative framing – stating the proportion who will experience the side effect. However, findings have been mixed. It appears that the absolute risk ascribed to the side effect ma

Cell-cycle progression in mammalian cells is coordinated by a series of control points. The D-type cyclins are a family of key cell cycle regulators that are controlled largely by mitogens and their association with and activation of cdk 4 and 6 at the G1 phase of the cell cycle. This study seeks to first analyze cyclins D1, D2, and D3 expression patterns in preimplantation mouse embryos using in vivo studies and then analyze the effects of Dilantin on the cyclin D1 expression pattern in cultured embryos. Antibody staining against cyclin D1, D2, and D3 via indirect immunofluorescence using a Z

Кількість зареєстрованих побічних реакці досягає зазначеному Всесвітньою організацією охорони здоров'я (44-60 %) при лікуванні хіміорезистентного туберкульозу. Слід звертати увагу на моніторинг та реєстрацію побічних реакцій, що сприятиме своєчасному та повноцінному їх лікуванню, а відтак – підвищить ефективність лікування туберкульозу взагалі.

Abstract:
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), with a prevalence of 1-2 %, frequently leads a chronic course. Persons with OCD are often reluctant to seek help and, if they do, their OCD is often missed. This is unfortunate, since active treatment may substantially improve social function and quality of life. Serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs) have welldocumented efficacy in OCD, but delayed response may be problematic. Methods to predict response have been lacking. Because SRIs are effective, pathophysiological research on OCD has focussed on serotonin. However, no clear aberrations of serotonin have

Abstract:
Antipsychotic drugs have been known to have effects on the endocrine system since their introduction to clinical practice. However, until recently there has been little systematic investigation of the prevalence and end-organ effects of endocrine disturbance in people taking antipsychotic medications. This thesis presents a series of studies that investigate glucose-insulin homeostasis, hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis function, and the relationship between abnonnalities of the HPG axis and sexual function, bone mineral density (BMD), and glucose-insulin homeostasis in patients taking
