Methods and devices for treating hypotension, such as in cases of shock, including septic shock and anaphylactic shock, wherein the treatment includes providing an electrical impulse to a selected region of the vagus nerve of a patient suffering from hypotension to block and / or modulate nerve signals that regulate blood pressure.

Compositions and methods are disclosed for inhibiting the release of a proinflammatory cytokine from a vertebrate cell, and for inhibiting an inflammatory cytokine cascade in a patient. The compositions comprise, for example, high affinity antibodies that specifically bind HMG1 and antigenic fragments thereof. The high affinity antibodies of the present invention and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same are useful for many purposes, for example, as therapeutics against a wide range of inflammatory diseases and disorders such as sepsis, rheumatoid arthritis, peritonitis, Crohn's disease, reperfusion injury, septicemia, endotoxic shock, cystic fibrosis, endocarditis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, arthritis, anaphylactic shock, organ ischemia, reperfusion injury, and allograft rejection. In addition, the high affinity antibodies of the present inventions are useful as diagnostic antibodies.

Systems and methods for prediction and detection of circulatory shock using estimates or measurements of arterial blood pressure, heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output, total peripheral resistance, cardiac ejection fraction, cardiac contractility and ventricular end-diastolic volume are provided. These estimates and measurements are used to determine a type of circulatory shock. In some embodiments, the type of circulatory shock is determined to be one of septic shock, hypovolemic shock, anaphylactic shock, hemorrhagic shock, and cardiogenic shock.

A carboxylic acid compound represented by formula (I): (meanings of the symbols in the formula are as mentioned in the specification) and a pharmaceutical agent comprising the compound. <>Since the compound represented by formula (I) binds to a DP receptor and shows antagonistic activity for the DP receptor, it is useful for prevention and / or treatment of diseases such as allergic disease (such as allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, atopic dermatitis, bronchial asthma and food allergy), systemic mastocytosis, disorders accompanied by systemic mast cell activation, anaphylaxis shock, bronchoconstriction, urticaria, eczema, diseases accompanied by itch (such as atopic dermatitis and urticaria), diseases (such as cataract, retinal detachment, inflammation, infection and sleeping disorders) which is generated secondarily as a result of behavior accompanied by itch (such as scratching and beating), inflammation, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, ischemic reperfusion injury, cerebrovascular accident, chronic rheumatoid arthritis, pleurisy, ulcerative colitis and the like. Carboxylic acid compounds represented by the following general formula (I) (wherein each symbol is as defined in the description) and drugs containing these compounds: (I) Because of binding to DP receptor and antagonizing the same, the compounds represented by the general formula (I) are useful in preventing and / or treating allergic diseases (allergic nephritis, allergic conjunctivitis, atopic dermatitis, bronchial asthma, food allergy, etc.), systemic mast cell disease, systemic mast cell activation failure, anaphylactic shock, respiratory tract contraction, urticaria, eczema, diseases associated with itch (atopic dermatitis, urticaria, etc.), diseases (cataract, retinal detachment, inflammation, infection, sleep disorder, etc.) secondarily caused by behaviors associating itch (scratching, beating.

The invention relates to compositions suitable for plasma substitution comprising as a plasma expander a recombinant gelatin-like protein. Characteristic is that the gelatin-like protein essentially is free of hydroxyproline. This absence of hydroxyproline prevents the composition from gelling and thus allows the use of high-molecular weight proteins in order to establish a suitable colloid osmotic pressure. Specific advantage of the gelatin-like proteins is that these avoid the risk of anaphylactic shock that exists in conjunction with the use of commercially available preparations.

The invention relates to pseudo-ginsenoside 12-ketone-PF11, an extraction method and its medical use, belonging to the field of medicine. Take an appropriate amount of American ginseng flower buds, add 3 to 5 times the amount of 80 to 95% ethanol and heat and reflux for extraction, each time for 2 to 4 hours, and extract 3 to 5 times in total. Silica gel column chromatography, C 18 Reverse-phase silica gel open column or medium-pressure preparative column separation, recrystallization in organic solvents such as methanol to obtain pseudoginsenoside 12-one-PF11. The invention has carried out animal model experiments, can reduce the death rate of anaphylactic shock in mice, reduce ear swelling in mice with delayed hypersensitivity, and inhibit the increase of capillary permeability in mice caused by 5-hydroxytryptamine and histamine. Pseudoginsenoside 12-ketone-PF11 of the present invention is expected to be developed as a new type of drug for the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases as a pharmaceutical active ingredient, and provide clinical guidance and basis for the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases, thereby reducing the suffering of patients. Improve patient quality of life.

A method and composition for treating allergic diseases and / or airway inflammation including pollinosis, bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis and anaphylactic shock with the administration to a subject an amount of an anti-infectious agent such as ribavirin and optionally combined with an anti-inflammatory agent selected from inhaled steroids, leukotriene receptor antagonists and beta-2 receptor agonist.
