Pharmaceutical assistance in the consequences of menopause

Catedra de farmacologie și farmacie clinică, Universitatea de Stat de Medicină și Farmacie “Nicolae Testemițanu”, Facultatea de Farmacie Universitatea de Stat de Medicină și Farmacie ”Nicolae Testemițanu”, Republica MoldovaRezumat. Acest studiu reprezintă o cercetare observaţională complexă, pe două grupuri paralele, efectuată în secţia consultativă la IMSP Spitalul Clinic Municipal Nr. 1 din Chişinău şi la cabinete medicale ginecologice particulare. În cadrul studiului efectuat, s-a constatat, că 28% femei sunt fumătoare, 23% consumă alcool, 14% suportă diabet zaharat, 39% sunt obeze şi al. Manifestările clinice principale au fost: bufeuri de căldură (89%), tahicardie (64%), tulburările somnului (48%), transpirație nocturnă (31%), uscăciune în vagin (67%), dureri în timpul actelor sexuale (24%). Terapia hormonală (în diferite combinaţii şi opţiuni de administrare a estrogenilor) este o preferință în primii ani de la instalarea menopauzei, cu o eficienţă majoră în ameliorarea bufeurilor şi a disconfortului vaginal.Abstract. This study represents a complex observational research, on two parallel groups, carried out in the Consultative Departement of Municipal Clinical Hospital Nr. 1 from Chisinau and at private gynecological offices. In this study, has been established that 28% of women are smokers, 23% drink alcohol, 14% have diabetes, 39% are obese etc. The main clinical manifestations were: hot flashes (89%), tachycardia (64%), sleep disorders (48%), night sweats (31%), vaginal dryness (67%), pain during sexual act (24%). The hormone therapy (in various combinations and estrogen administration options) is a preference method in the first years after menopause, with a major effectiveness in relieving hot flashes and vaginal discomfort

Observation of single collisionally cooled trapped ions in a buffer gas

Individual Ba ions are trapped in a gas-filled linear ion trap and observed with a high signal-to-noise ratio by resonance fluorescence. Single-ion storage times of ~5 min (~1 min) are achieved using He (Ar) as a buffer gas at pressures in the range 8e-5 - 4e-3 torr. Trap dynamics in buffer gases are experimentally studied in the simple case of single ions. In particular, the cooling effects of light gases such as He and Ar and the destabilizing properties of heavier gases such as Xe are studied. A simple model is offered to explain the observed phenomenology.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. A. Minor text and figure change

L'influence des parois en verre sur l'établissement des stratifications de la colonne positive

Dans le présent travail sont exposées certaines modifications d'aspect des phénomènes lumineux présentés par une ampoule à décharge (âir pression 0,08-1 mm Hg) dans des conditions définies. L'introduction d'un tube en verre étroit sur le trajet des particules a une influence déterminée sur l'établissement de la colonne anodique (apparition progressive des stratifications positives), tandis que les phénomènes lumineux catholiques ne sont pas influencés. La distribution du potentiel électrique le long des stratifications (décharge avec tube) a été explorée avec une sonde; les résultats sont concordants avec ceux prévus par K T. Compton, Turner et Mac Curdy. Les variations du potentiel électrique dans les régions de la décharge anodique, provoquées de la manière indiquée, sont également étudiées
