Is intramuscular interferon beta-1a effective in Japanese patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis : a pre-treatment versus treatment comparison study of gadolinium-enhanced MRI brain lesions?

These findings demonstrate that cocaine suppresses the normal increase in LH and FSH pulse amplitude seen in the LFP. Further studies are in progress to determine the mechanism of cocaine's disruption of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis.
