1Department of Otolaryngology, Lanlian Hospital, Lanzhou 730060.
Abstract:
From September 1992 to July 1997 56 cases (59 ears) of sudden deafness were treated with urokinase 20,000 unit a day for ten days. At the same time also using Papaverine hydrochloride, ATP and CoA. The effective rate of treatment was 86.44%. But for the control group of 48 cases treated with only Papavrine hydrochloride, ATP and CoA, the effective rate of treatment was 63.32%. There was significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01). In addition, urokinase is safe and reliable in treating sudden deafness and has not be found any evident side-effect.

Effects of EDTA on End-Point Detection Methods
In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a result, EDTA...
