The FTIR spectrum of clonazepam was recorded in the region 4000 to 400 cm–1 in the solid phase. The optimized geometry, wave number and intensity of the vibrational bands of clonazepam were obtained by ab initio Restricted Hartree Fock (RHF) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods with complete relaxation in the potential energy surface using the 6-31G (d,p) basis set. A complete vibrational assignment aided by the theoretical harmonic frequency analysis is proposed. The observed and the calculated wavenumbers are found to be in good agreement. The experimental spectra also coincide satisfactorily with those of theoretical spectra. Theoretical spectrograms for the IR spectrum were also constructed in RHF and B3LYP levels. In addition to this the RHF and DFT based NMR calculation procedure was used to assign the 1H NMR chemical shift of clonazepam. Theoretical values are compared with the experimental data.展开更多

Guideline on this disease is not available. Additional trials must be conducted to find more suitable treatments for it. In this study, the antimyoclonic effects ofmonotherapies, including levetiracetam (LEV), clonazepam (CZP), valproic acid (VPA), and topiramate (TPM) compared to combination therapy group with LEV and CZP on MERRF, were evaluated to find a more advantageous approach on the treatment of myoclonic seizures. Methods: Treatments of myoclonic seizures with VPA, LEV, CZP, and TPM were reported as monotherapies in 17 MERRF patients from Qilu Hospital between 2003 and 2016, who were diagnosed through clinical data and genetic testing. After 1-4 months oflbllow-up (mean: 82.9 ± 28.1 days), 12 patients that exhibited poor responses to monotherapy were given a combined treatment consisting of LEV and CZP subsequently. The lbllow-up period was 4-144 months (mean: 66.3 ± 45.3 months), the effective rates of monotherapy group (17 patients) and combination therapy group (12 patients) were analyzed by Chi-square test. Results: The m.8344 A〉G mutation was detected in all patients. There were lbur patients with partial response (4/17, two in the CZP group and two in the LEV group), ten patients with stable disease (10/17, six in the CZP group, three in the LEV group, and one in the TPM group), and three patients with progressive disease (3/18, two in the VPA group and one in the TPM group). Twelve of the patients with LEV combined with CZP showed a positive effect and good tolerance (12/12), eight of them demonstrated improved cognition and coordination. There was a significant difference between the monotherapy group and combination therapy gToup in the efficacy ofantimyoclonic seizures (χ^2 = 13.7, P 〈 0.001 ). Conclusions: LEV in combination with CZP is an efficient and sale treatment for myoclonic seizures in patients with this disease exhibiting the m.8344A〉G mutation.展开更多
