Platelet Thromboxane A2 Secretion in Patients With Major Depression Responsive to Electroconvulsive Therapy
Objective: To determine a) whether clinical response to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is associated with decreased platelet activation in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and b) if any medical/demographic characteristics predict response to ECT or changes in platelet activation. Increased platelet activation may underlie the increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with MDD. Methods: Before their first and sixth …
The Psychophysiological Investigations of Myocardial Ischemia (Pimi) Study
OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated physiological, neuroendocrine, and psychological status and functioning of patients with coronary artery disease in order to clarify their role in the expression of symptoms during myocardial ischemia (MI), and to establish repeatability of responses to mental stress. Design and methods of the study are presented. METHODS: One hundred ninety-six coronary artery disease patients were examined during physical and men…
Some contrasting effects of surgical and “chemical” castration on the behavior of male cynomolgus monkeys ( Macaca fascicularis )
In nonhuman primates, surgical castration reduces plasma testosterone levels and male sexual behavior, and testosterone replacement restores them. Chemical castration with compounds that lower plasma testosterone levels is used clinically in the treatment of certain forms of cancer and to reduce aberrant sexual behavior in male sex offenders. In the United States, medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) is the drug most used to help reduce serious sexu…
A computerized system for scoring primate behavior using standard keyboards
A scoring system has been developed for primate behavior which uses standard keyboards and minicomputers or microcomputers. The mnemonic, alphanumeric code used is easily learned, highly flexible, and can be recorded in longhand for later entry into a computer if a keyboard is not immediately available. The software consists of two programs, both of which can be written in BASIC. SCORE is used for data acquisition and appends the test time to eac…
