Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We performed a single-arm, open-label pilot trial of the anti-inflammatory drug pentoxifylline to reduce systemic inflammation and improve endothelial function, measured by flow-mediated dilation of the brachial artery, in HIV-infected patients not requiring antiretroviral therapy."3.76Anti-inflammatory treatment with pentoxifylline improves HIV-related endothelial dysfunction: a pilot study. ( Clauss, M; Desta, Z; Dubé, MP; Gupta, SK; Johnson, RM; Mather, KJ; Rehman, J; Saha, C, 2010)
"Our purpose was to assess the clinical efficacy of pentoxifylline in the treatment of pruritus in HIV-infected patients with PPE while measuring its effects on HIV viral load and levels of serum triglycerides, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and interleukin (IL)-4."3.70Efficacy of pentoxifylline in the treatment of pruritic papular eruption of HIV-infected persons. ( Berman, B; Burke, G; Flores, F, 1998)
"The causes of pruritus are numerous including xerosis, drug and photoeruptions, follicular and papular eruptions as well as infestations and infections by a wide range of organisms."2.68Pruritus in HIV-1 disease: therapy with drugs which may modulate the pattern of immune dysregulation. ( Lee, RB; Skelton, HG; Smith, KJ; Wagner, KF; Yeager, J, 1997)
"Pentoxifylline (PTX) is a methylxanthine derivative with a variety of anti-inflammatory effects."2.44Pentoxifylline: a drug with wide spectrum applications in dermatology. ( Zargari, O, 2008)
