T.P.G.M de Vries,Robert H. Henning,H. V. Hogerzeil,J.S Bapna,Lisa Bero,K.K Kafle,A.F.B. Mabadeje,B. Santoso,Anthony J. Smith +8 more
TL;DR: The impact of a short problem-based training course in pharmacotherapy, using a WHO manual on the principles of rational prescribing, was measured in an international multi-centre randomised controlled study of 219 undergraduate medical students.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymorphic hydroxylation of debrisoquine
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in sodium pool and kinetics of sodium transport in frog skin produced by amiloride.
L. A. Salako,Anthony J. Smith +1 more
TL;DR: The results of these studies suggest that amiloride reacts with sites on the outside membrane of the transporting cells as a result of which the rate of sodium movement across this membrane is diminished.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antihypertensive treatment with metoprolol or hydrochlorothiazide in patients aged 60 to 75 years. Report from a double-blind international multicenter study.

TL;DR: It is concluded that beginning antihypertensive treatment with 100 mg of metoprolol once daily and adding a small dose of hydrochlorothiazide (12.5 mg) in patients whose response is not satisfactory with metoprool alone appears to be effective and safe in elderly hypertensive patients.

TL;DR: The meta-analysis of six published studies retrieved from the literature search and eight unpublished studies showed no evidence of association between common genetic variation in the IL1B or IL1RN genes and risk of hip OA or knee OA, but the data suggest that IL1 RN might have a role in severity of knee Oa.
