1-acetyl-4-(4-{[2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1H-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl]methoxy}phenyl)piperazine : A dioxolane that is 1,3-dioxolane which is substituted at positions 2, 2, and 4 by imidazol-1-ylmethyl, 2,4-dichlorophenyl, and [para-(4-acetylpiperazin-1-yl)phenoxy]methyl groups, respectively.

Obesity: A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Adrenolytic treatment with ketoconazole (400 mg daily) caused symptoms of adrenal insufficiency, but a reduced dosage of 200 mg daily lowered the cortisol level to between 5 and 11 micrograms/dl and normalized the blood pressure and clinical signs of Cushing's syndrome disappeared."1.29[Bilateral massive macronodular adrenal gland hyperplasia. A rare cause of Cushing's syndrome]. ( Allolio, B; Diehl, KL; Reincke, M; Strohm, M; Theiss, M, 1994)
