Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To assess the epidemiology of habitual use of analgesics in South-West Germany (i) urine specimens of employees of a factory, of patients seen by a general practitioner (GP) and of patients attending a renal clinic were examined for paracetamol; (ii) mucosa of the left renal pelvis was examined for the presence of capillary sclerosis as an index of habitual use of phenacetin or paracetamol in 258 consecutive autopsies; (iii) in a regional renal clinic, the frequency of analgesic nephropathy was determined amongst outpatients and amongst patients on hemodialysis."3.68[Epidemiological studies of the frequency of the abuse of analgesics].
