(7) Estradiol-17beta, estradiol-benzoate, estradiol-valerianate, and estradiol-undecylate were injected intravenously and intramuscularly to postmenopausal woman and to female castrates.
(8) By means of Karyopycnotic Index and Dynamic Oestrogenicity Index the cytological effect was quantified from a single dose of oestradiol valerianate, mestranol, ethinyloestradiol and 3 depot oestrogens proved on postmenopause women and compared with adequate pharmacocinetical investigations.
(9) Hecogenine and pregnadienolone significantly increased the snail's number of eggs; testosterone, diethylstilbestrol and estradiol valerianate decreased their number of eggs and the mesterolone and progesterone produced a slight decrease in the number of eggs.
(10) In experiments with lymphoid human cells Raji synergism of the effects of gamma radiation and cardiovascular drugs (e. g. valocordin, valerian, ouabain, and digoxin), administered in nontoxic doses to culture medium 15 min after irradiation (0.5, 1, and 2.5 Gy) was displayed by the inhibition of cell proliferation.
(11) roots of Japanese valerian, were compared with those of diazepam and imipramine.
(12) The results indicate that the aqueous valerian extract exerts a mild hypnotic action.
(13) The experimental cycle consisted of a daily dose of 2 mg estradiol valerianate as estrogen for 11 days, the identical dose of estrogen plus 0.5 mg dl-norgestrel as gestagen for 10 days, and a 7-day medication-free period.
(14) One hundred and twenty five Holtzman rats of both sexes were submitted to malnutrition during suckling with or without periodic injections of testosterone enantate in males and estradiol valerianate in females.

(18) In the women taking oestradiol valerianate, FSH and LH levels were both reduced by 20 to 25 per cent wheras serum oestradiol increased by 200 to 300 per cent and oestrone increased by 600 to 700 per cent.
(19) It is concluded that oestradiol valerianate is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and converted to E1.
(20) The youngest current hereditary peer is Valerian Freyberg, the 3rd Baron Freyberg, who is 38.
