    摘要: The invention describes formulations that include either metformin, sulfonylurea or a biguanide-sulfonylurea combination as one active ingredient in addition to specific, other active ingredients. The compositions and dosage forms of the invention are clinically useful as methods for increasing the effectiveness, efficiency and safety of the included biguanide (metformin) and/or sulfonylurea in the prevention and treatment of insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus. The carefully chosen additional active ingredients of the invention are designed in a modular fashion to prevent and rectify adverse events associated with insulin resistance syndrome and diabetes mellitus, and those adverse incidences associated with the concurrent use of metformin and/or the sulfonylureas. When clinically administered, the invention will provide therapeutic levels of metformin and of a sulfonylurea, alone or in combination, and broaden their usefulness. The invention will retard the progression of insulin resistance to type 2 diabetes, and reduce the serious microvascular and macrovascular complications commonly associated with insulin resistance syndrome and diabetes mellitus.

    摘要: The components of this invention are chosen because of their complementarity for the prevention or treatment of diseases caused by the herpes simplex virus. L-Lysine favorably increases the physiologic immunomodulation necessary for defense against this virus. Zinc improves and maintains a normal immune response. 2-Deoxy-2-D-glucose and heparin sodium alter the surface interaction between the herpes virus and the cell, preventing fusion and infectivity. N-Acetyl-L-cysteine increases glutathione levels thereby creating a thiol redox barrier to the virus at the cell membrane. Quercetin reduces intracellular replication of the herpes virus and viral infectivity. Ascorbate, in concert with copper and D-&agr;-tocopherol, provides an antioxidant defense against the herpes virus, which tends to lose latency during period of oxidative, free radical excess. Selenium and quercetin also participate in reducing various oxidative stresses. Together the components of this invention provide the potential for improved resistance to, improved recovery from, and a decreased frequency of recurrence of herpes simplex virus infection.

    摘要: Four interdependent functional groups of biofactors and biomolecules are identified and formulations are defined which are comprised of their members. The active agents are demonstrated to be complementary in their physiological functions especially as these relate to endothelial biochemistry and physiology, hyperinsulinemia and, ultimately, to vascular health. The active components of the invention are selected for inclusion in precise combinations that reduce a variety of risks of vasculopathy in addition to reducing intraocular pressure. Widespread systemic improvement associated with local, optic nerve betterment of vascular health, reduces the risk of optic nerve atrophy with its accompanying visual field loss and potential blindness. The reduction of this maximizes the potential clinical therapeutic success of current medical, IOP-lowering, anti-glaucoma mediations.

    摘要: Magnesium is formulated in combination with vitamin E, vitamin C, folate, selenium, and optionally melatonin a unit dosage form for oral administration, for the treatment of vasoconstriction and the physiological and pathological conditions giving rise to vasoconstriction. These active agents complement each other in suppressing these conditions, using a variety of mechanisms operating in conjunction with one another. The inclusion of magnesium in a plurality of forms provides additional advantages in terms of controlling and sustaining the release of magnesium in locations along the digestive tract where the magnesium will have its greatest effectiveness as a therapeutic agent, thus improving control over the clinical bioavailability of magnesium and in improving the selection of appropriate therapeutic ranges.

    摘要: A microprocessor based instrument designed to retrofit into existing perimeters utilizing the mechanics and stimulus control aspects of the existing perimeter. The device includes an array board positioned adjacent the perimeter mechanical arm and includes a multiplicity of visual indicators spatially arranged in a composite pattern of testing locations required for one or more ophthalmic testing procedures. A processor is connected to the array board for sequentially actuating the visual indicators in accordance with the testing procedure whereby the operator guides a cursor attached to the perimeter mechanical arm to align with the actuated indicators and control the location of the perimeter test stimulus. The processor includes means for sensing the position of the cursor, silently presenting a light flash to the patient, and a memory which records the patient's responses. When the program test sequence has been completed, the missed locations on the array board actuate allowing the examiner to manually record the data on a printed form. Switching means are provided whereby manual presentation of test stimuli may be provided, the patient's response overridden, and previous trials retested.
