[Atypical jobs: current facts, health surveillance and monitoring].

Based on the analysis of data collected during scientific studies and on the knowledge gained from the investigations on flexible or new forms of jobs it can be observed that the increasing amount of industrial accidents reporting and the existence of bad frame of mind are to be charged to the lack of training, to the uncertainty related to these type of jobs, to the short duration of the employment timeframe, to the difficulty of being in line with the company security standards, to risky activities, to immigrants who hardly get socially integrated, to workers with a low level of education and to their limited work experience. Since lots of studies have demonstrated that workers are fully unsatisfied when they recognize the uncertainty of their job situation it is mandatory to intervene on the real implementation of training, health control, emergency management and monitoring, thus avoiding any kind of marginalization. Given the complexity of these new forms of jobs, it will be up to the supervising institutions to look for new and adequate models and tools to monitor and control all the different situations, always keeping in mind all the relevant rules and laws.

[Mexiletine, a drug with anti-arrhythmic action. Experimental research on the cardiovascular system].

It was shown experimentally that mexilithene possesses anti-arrhythmic activity with slight depression of sino-carotid baroreceptorial and glomo-carotid and gangliar chemoreceptorial activity and catecholamine uptake. Hypotensive and bradycardizing effects were only noted when high per kg doses were used. The drug did not display vascular alpha- and beta-adrenolytic, anti-muscarinic and anti-histaminic activity.

[Platelet aggregation and antihypertensive alpha-adrenergic agonists].

In their experimental researches the Authors showed that the well-known antihypertensive alpha-adrenergic stimulant drugs (clonidine, flutonidine and guanabenz) were able to antagonize at very high concentrations the platelet aggregation induced by ADP and by thrombin on rabbit PRP.

Adenosine Diphosphate↗

[Sodium phosphocreatine and the cardiovascular and respiratory systems].

In the dog, rat and chick, phosphocreatine-Na has not caused, from an experimental point of view, significative modifications of the cardiovascular- and respiratory-apparatus, of the reactivity of the cardio-regulator centers, of the baroreceptorial carotid-sinus and glomus reactivity, of the gangliar-, muscarinic-, histaminergic-, dopaminergic-, beta-adrenergic- and serotoninergic- vasomotor reactivity; only the vasomotor reactivity of a constrictive-type induced by epinephrine, nor-epinephrine, occlusion of the two common carotid arteries, hypertension and by BaCl2 is moderately reduced. It is interesting to note that the hypotensive response evoked by adenosine was augmented.
