3) Inhibition of prostaglandin metabolism, thereby reducing platelet thromboxane A2 levels Aspirin irreversibly inhibits cyclo-oxygenase-1 (COX-1), inhibiting platelet aggregation for 7-10 days. i. Conventional NSAIDs reversibly inhibit COX-1.
What is Rubinstein Taybi Syndrome (RTS)? RTS is a rare syndrome. It refers to a specific pattern of physical features and developmental disabilities, which occur together in a consistent fashion. Individuals with RTS have short stature, developmental delay, similar facial features, and broad thumbs and first toes. (Stevens & Carey, 1991)
RTDs - Resistance Temperature Detectors. Resistance temperature detectors (RTD) accurately sense temperature with an excellent degree of repeatability and interchangeability of elements. The RTD is composed of certain metallic elements whose change in resistance is a function of temperature.
