Simultaneous micromechanical and electromagnetic detection of electron paramagnetic resonance

The peculiar advantages of simultaneous observation by electromagnetic and micromechanical methods in EPR spectroscopy are discussed. The development of a novel apparatus with the capability of this simultaneous detection is described. Experiments at 23 GHz show the performance of the apparatus. The problems related to the sensitivity and to the spatial resolution are analyzed. Future prospects are presented. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.

[Domperidone as an anti-emetic in antineoplastic chemotherapy]. / Il domperidone come antiemetico in corso di chemioterapie antiblastica.

The antiemetic effects of domperidone in patients undergoing post-surgical cytostatic treatment for stomach and colorectal carcinoma have been evaluated. The study has been performed on 3 groups of patients treated with domperidone, metoclopramide and placebo respectively. The antiemetic activity of domperidone proved to be better than that of metoclopramide. No side effects were observed in patients treated with domperidone.
