Annals of Family Medicine, 3(5), 449-456. https://doi.org/10.1370/afm.349

PURPOSE Depression is common in primary care. There are no systematic reviews of depression treatment comparing antidepressants with placebo; hence, we do not know whether these medications are effective in primary care. METHODS We searched the Co... Read More about Efficacy and tolerability of tricyclic antidepressants and SSRIs compared with placebo for treatment of depression in primary care: A meta-analysis.

During growth of Escherichia coli on acetate, phosphotransacetylase and -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase are in direct competition for their common co-factor, HS-CoA. Such competition is resolved in favour of phosphotransacetylase, thus rendering -ketogl...
