CALCIUM TREATMENT FOR EDEMA

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1924
Meyer and Cohn,1in 1911, studied the effect of various salts on the weight and mineral balance in normal infants. They found that by giving calcium salts they could cause a decrease in weight due to water loss. In the case of calcium chlorid, they found that the calcium ion seemed to be largely excreted in the stool, while the chlorin ion was excreted ...

Calcium Carbimide in the Treatment of Primary Hyperoxaluria

New England Journal of Medicine, 1967
A DEFECT in the transamination of glyoxalate has been suggested as the metabolic abnormality responsible for the increased rate of oxalate synthesis in patients with primary hyperoxaluria (Fig. 1).1 Some of this excess oxalate combines with calcium to form insoluble deposits in a variety of tissues, resulting, in the kidney, in extensive scarring and ...

Calcium antagonists for the treatment of systemic hypertension

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1992
As shown by large-scale clinical trials, the antihypertensive effectiveness of diuretics has been associated with a dramatic decrease in the incidence of stroke. This decrease, however, has not been accompanied by a similar reduction in atherosclerotic complications of hypertension, perhaps because other risk factors are important contributors to ...

Calcium Channel Antagonists in the Treatment of Hypertension

American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs, 2002
Calcium channel antagonists are widely used antihypertensive agents. Their popularity among primary care physicians is not only due to their blood pressure-lowering effects, but also because they appear to be effective regardless of the age or ethnic background of the patients.

Calcium antagonists in the treatment of Tourette's disorder

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1986
Two patients with Tourette's disorder were treated with calcium antagonists. Verapamil and nifedipine produced positive responses, and diltiazem produced no response. Given the negative side effects of the current drugs for this disorder, the authors suggest further study of calcium antagonists.

Calcium channel blockers in the treatment of disease

Journal of Neuroscience Research, 2004
AbstractOver the last 20 years the combination of patch clamp and molecular biology techniques have resulted in an explosion in our knowledge of the different calcium channel types and their roles in physiology. A crucial component to this advance has been the discovery of specific blockers for different calcium channel types.

Calcium Channel Antagonists and the Treatment of Migraine

Clinical Neuropharmacology, 1986
Despite ongoing dispute over the pathophysiologic basis of migraine, the vasospastic theory of pathogenesis has brought to the forefront a promising class of new antimigraine agents, the Ca2+ channel antagonists. Voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels, integral membrane proteins that permit extracellular Ca2+ to enter cells down their electrical and ...

Calcium Channel Antagonists in the Treatment of Asthma

Journal of Asthma, 1984
The pathophysiologic processes that contribute to airway obstruction in asthma involve Ca2+-dependent excitation-contraction and stimulus-secretion coupling mechanisms. The emergence of new compounds that specifically inhibit Ca2+ flux across membrane ionic channels has stimulated widespread interest in the therapeutic potential of these agents in ...

CALCIUM, ESTROGEN, AND PROGESTIN IN THE TREATMENT OF OSTEOPOROSIS

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1994
An adequate calcium intake is important to attain peak bone mass and to oppose that component of age-related bone loss due to insufficient intestinal calcium absorption. Calcium and appropriate vitamin D supplements are particularly important for preventing cortical bone loss and associated hip fractures in the elderly (Type II osteoporosis).
