Fulminant Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension—Clinical Characteristics and Continuous Drainage as a Novel Treatment Approach [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Fulminant idiopathic intracranial hypertension (fIIH) is a severe condition which causes rapid visual loss. Conventional fIIH management involves surgical interventions, but their effectiveness and safety remain uncertain. The use of temporary continuous CSF drainage (CD) for fIIH has not been fully explored in the adult population.

Acclimatizing with Acetazolamide [PDF]
Although it is best to prevent acute mountain sickness (AMS) 1 by gradual ascent without using any drugs, this may not always be an option in many settings. Rescuers may need to go up rapidly to high altitudes; or logistically, owing to a lack of camp site, it may not be possible for trekkers and climbers to spend the night at an optimal altitude ...

Acetazolamide-based fungal chitinase inhibitors [PDF]
Chitin is an essential structural component of the fungal cell wall. Chitinases are thought to be important for fungal cell wall remodelling, and inhibition of these enzymes has been proposed as a potential strategy for development of novel anti-fungals.
