Abstract: Novel trans-isomeric derivatives of 4-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthalenamine are useful as antidepressant agents. These novel compounds act to block the synaptosomal uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin (5-hydroxy-tryptamine), thereby alleviating abnormalities at central receptor sites. The preferred embodiment is the enantiomer trans-(1R)-N-methyl-4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthalen amine and its pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts.

Abstract: Certain new 2-oxindole-1-carboxamide compounds having an acyl substituent at the 3-position are inhibitors of the cyclooxygenase (CO) and lipoxygenase (LO) enzymes, and are useful as analgesic and anti-inflammatory agents in mammalian subjects. In particular, the compounds of the invention are useful for ameliorating or eliminating pain in human subjects recovering from surgery or trauma, and in alleviating the symptoms of chronic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, in human subjects.
Abstract: Spiro-oxazolidones, -thiazolidones and -imidazolidones are disclosed which are useful as aldose reductase inhibitors and as therapeutic agents for the treatment of complications arising from diabetes. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the spiro compounds and a method of treating diabetic complications are also disclosed.
Abstract: A novel device for mass transfer across a membrane is disclosed, which is particularly suitable for use as a blood oxygenator. The novel device is of the type having a pleated, selectively permeable membrane defining first and second sets of alternating pockets for the flow of a fluid to be treated (e.g. blood) and a treating fluid (e.g. oxygen), and a discrete support screen disposed within each of the pockets of said first and second sets. Of considerable importance is the feature that the support screens are designed to be substantially interdigitated when the assembly of membrane and support screens is held as a compressed stack within the housing of the device. The novel mass transfer apparatus may be utilized as a compact blood oxygenator with excellent gas transfer rates, low pressure drops and negligible trauma to blood components.
