Abstract

In a recent paper Guarino and Bovet (1949) have studied the use of the measure pA for expressing intensity of drug antagonism.pA, has been defined (Schild, 1947) as the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of an antagonist which reduces the effect of a multiple dose, x, of a stimulant drug to that of a single dose.Guarino and Bovet have pointed out that this definition does not specify concentration of active drug, and therefore by implication assumes that pA is independent of the initial concentration of active drug used.In studying the an.-TYPE tagonism between acetylcholine coo and flaxedil* on the frog's rectus abdominis, however, they found that pA was not % , entirely independent of the CONTRACTION /

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
