Повний текст джерелаAdverse drug events (ADE) include adverse drug reactions (ADR), considered as not preventable and medication errors (ME), considered as preventable. The aim of this thesis is to describe ADE responsible for ICU admissions. First, we conducted a systematic review dealing with the incidence of ADE requiring ICU admission in adult patients. A total of 11 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The reported incidences of ADE requiring ICU admission ranged from 0.37 to 27.4%. Preventable events accounted for 17.5 to 85.7% of the events.To get more insight into this topic and to complete the published data, we performed a one-year observational study in a medical ICU of a teaching parisian hospital. The objectives of the study were to estimate the incidence of ICU admissions due to ADE, to assess preventability, severity and costs of these ADE and to determine the leading causes of medication errors (preventable ADE). A total of 743 admissions were included with 102 stays (13.7%) related to ME and 71 (9.6%) related to ADR. Medication non-compliance was the main leading cause of ME (n = 31/102). The 102 medication error-related admissions accounted for a total of 528 days of hospitalization in the ICU, requiring a mean of 1.4 ICU beds per day over the one-year period, with an associated total cost amounting to 747,651 €.This work concludes that further studies should be performed to assess ways to reduce the incidence of ADE responsible for ICU admissions

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction - Newborns are considered vulnerable to adverse drug events because of their physiological immaturity, to consider the body proportions to determine dosages of drugs, the practical limitations during drug administration and the high proportion of drugs used for their treatment while in hospital care. Furthermore, the population of newborns is usually not included in clinical trials for the approval of new drugs. In this context, drug therapy in children is based on extrapolation of information that lead to the approval of the drug for use in adults or in older children. Despite the relevance of the subject, the identification of adverse drug events in hospitals is still carried out through voluntary reporting. It is estimated that this method detects only 5 to 10 per cent of the adverse events occurred by medications in a health care institution. A tool known as \"trigger\" is shown as a superior method compared to the conventional voluntary reporting system in hospitalized patients. A \"trigger\" is defined as a \"flag\" found from the patient chart review, allowing to select the records in the charts that are most likely to have experienced an adverse drug event. Aim - Use triggers to identify adverse drug events (ADE) in hospitalized newborns. Methodology - This is an observational prospective cohort study. The study was conducted at the University Hospital of the University of São Paulo, in the neonatal conventional intermediate care unit and in the neonatal intensive care unit, from March to September 2015. Hospitalized newborns were included using medications during hospitalization. A trigger list was made to identify ADE in this population. The triggers on this list were actively sought in medical charts of newborns. If a trigger was found, it was registered and followed up with a more detailed search for potential ADEs that occurred. Newborns were followed until their discharge or until completing 29 days of life. The performance of each trigger to identify ADE was calculated. The frequencies of ADE were determined. The characteristics of adverse events and related drugs have been described. Results - The study included 125 newborns. 925 triggers were found, which were positive 208 times to identify suspected ADE. That corresponded to the final number of 115 ADE. The overall triggers rate was 22.5 per cent . The overall incidence of ADE was 46.4 per cent (CI 37.6; 55.1). The overall frequency of ADEs per 1,000 patient-days was 81.6 (CI 67.4; 98.0). The most common ADE were diarrhea (29.6 per cent), vomiting (23.5 per cent), oversedation (7.0 per cent) and hyperglycemia (5.2 per cent). The most common medications associated with ADEs were antibiotics (39.4 per cent), analgesics (13 per cent), vitamins (12.5 per cent), caffeine (11.1 per cent) and psycholeptics (8.7 per cent). Among the highperformance trigger, it stand out: \"oversedation,\" \"prescription of methadone / lorazepam\" and \"prescription of flumazenil.\" These triggers identified ADE related to analgesics and psycholeptics, two of the therapeutic classes more involved in ADE in this study. Conclusions Frequent EAM identified by triggers were diarrhea , vomiting, hyperglycemia and oversedation . The most common medications associated with ADE were antibiotics, analgesics, vitamins, caffeine and psycholeptics. The overall incidence of EAM 46.4 per cent and the incidence rate was 81.6 EAM per 1000 patient-days. The active search for ADE by triggers allows a focused review of specific elements in the patient records. This kind of search allows the identification of a greater number of ADE that could go unnoticed in simple review of medical records.

Повний текст джерелаThe pharmacovigilance systems support the decisions on safety when using medications regulated by health authorities. Analyzing them and proposing improvement strategies are ways to make healthcare systems stronger, improving the quality of healthcare assistance, making sure the patient is safe and that the population is ensured. The dissertation was aimed at analyzing the evolution and performance of the Brazilian pharmacovigilance system, SINAF, and the notification of patients with suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) registered with the notification system NOTIVISA/medication from 2008 through 2013, as well as proposing a reference list of ICD-10 codes for surveillance of ADRs and intoxication due to medication (IDM). The dissertation is comprised of six scientific articles ready to be published. The first one, a scoping review, presents a historical perspective to demonstrate the development process of SINAF and the gaps identified during the process, such as the absence of a pharmacovigilance commission that complies with the minimum requirements of a pharmacovigilance system as proposed by World Health Organization. Articles 2, 3 and 4 presents an analysis of the performance-related characteristics of SINAF. Article 2 reveals that there is no digital age preference in the adverse drug events (ADEs) database belonging to NOTIVISA/medication. Using a comparative analysis, article 3 shows differences between the form for ADEs notification using SINAF and in other twelve Latin-American countries (Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Guatemala, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela), highlighting the number of variables to complete, and it may collaborate with the sub-notification of cases. Article 4 – a study on the evaluation of public health surveillance systems over time – reveal that the performance of NOTIVISA/medication was considered satisfactory regarding three attributes (flexibility, validity and positive predictive error) and deficient regarding most of the others (simplicity, acceptability, representability, integrality, consistency, opportunity and methodological clarity). Article 5, by means of a descriptive and retrospective study, found an ADR notification rate of 22.8/million inhabitants/year. This is a much lower rate than in high income countries, such as New Zealand, Sweden, Australia and Switzerland, which have over 300 notifications per million, when compared against average income, such as South Africa, with a rate of 77/million inhabitants. Female population (60.5%) prevailed in the total number of patients (26,554), as well as white race/color (58.1%). Age was between 0 - 112 years old (median = 46 years). Almost 1/3 (32.5%) of the suspected ADRs occurred in vulnerable populations (elderly and children). 54,288 pairs of medication/adverse reactions were assessed. Severe adverse reactions prevailed (59.2%), and attention is drawn to those resulting in clinically important effect (83.1%). Study 6 proposes a reference list with 691 ICD-10 codes; 360 (52.1%) out of them are ADRs-related and 331 (47.9%) out of them are IDM. A total of 511 (73.9%) codes are related to cases of hospital admission and/or death. The dissertation findings prove the need of changes across different aspects in SINAF as a way to contribute to production of complete, reliable and representative information on damages caused by commercially available drugs in Brazil.

Повний текст джерелаCyclosporine A (cyclo) is a widely used drug in kidney transplantation: its anticalcineurin actioninhibits T lymphocytes activation and prevents allograft rejection. Despite a huge benefit on graftsurvival, cyclo exerts a side effect that limits its use: nephrotoxicity. Vasculotoxicity appears to becentral: cyclo enhances renal vasoconstriction by altering vasoactive factors and vascular smoothmuscle cells (VSMC) response to vasoactive factors. Beyond its effects on sodium reabsorption,Mineralocorticoid Receptor (MR) acts on vascular tone by modulating both endothelial and VSMCresponses to vasoactive factors. Our working hypothesis was that MR could participate to cycloinducedvasoconstriction and that MR inactivating (pharmacologically or genetically) could alleviatecyclo-induced nephrotoxicity. Two genetically MR-knock out (MR-KO) were generated: inendothelial or VSMC. Only VSMC MR-KO mice were protected from cyclo-induced nephrotoxicity.We also show that such an effect was mediated by vascular tone modulation. This prevention was alsoconferred by the systemic pharmacological antagonism of MR (by canrenoate) in mice but not duringnephrotoxicity induced by tacrolimus (another anticalcineurine drug used in kidney transplantation).Then, we proposed to use MR pharmacological antagonism in humans (by eplerenone) during kidneytransplantation. We first had to prove its safety in such a population. Among 31 cyclo-treated patients,only 9 developed hyperkalemia (>5mmol/L) and none presented serious side effect. We propose akalemia higher than 4.35mmol/L at baseline to be the marker of a higher risk of developinghyperkalemia under treatment. The efficiency of eplerenone to prevent/alleviate cyclo-inducednephrotoxicity during kidney transplantation should be tested during a randomized controlled trial

Theoretical Background: The adverse drug event (ADE) may occur due to adverse reaction and medication error. Damage caused by adverse events (AD) can lead to increased hospitalization time, rehospitalization, greater morbidity, the need for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, irreversible consequences such as death and great economic impact. Objective: This study aims to analyze the costs of adverse drug events in hospitalized patients. Methods: This is a retrospective study carried out in a public hospital in the state of Goiás, Brazil, with patients admitted to the adult hospitalization clinics in the year 2016 and who suffered ADE. The colection of data occurred between May and October 2017. The data were collected through a nursing record and patient records. Additional hospitalization time, hours worked by the health professional, therapeutic and diagnostic procedures, and resources used by these users related to ADE were analyzed. In case of death, the average annual salary was calculated by the years of lost work lives for the society. The costs of the materials were obtained through a bidding system and the cost accounting unit of the hospital itself, the Federal Government Price Panel, and procedures through the SIGTAP Table. The data was typed in the Excel worksheet and analyzed by simple statistics. The present study was submitted and approved in the ethics committee with protocol in GEP / HC / UFG nº 030/2017 and was followed what is recommended by Resolution 466/2012. Results: We identified 164 cases of medication errors and adverse reactions in the nursing records. However, only the cases of patients in which the medical record was reported and that additional intervention were included in the study, which totaled 80 cases, 25 of which could have been avoided. The total costs due to EAM identified in the study were R $ 96,877.90. There were direct costs totaling R $ 26,463.90, of which R $ 20,430.36 was obtained from the hospital's perspective and R $ 6,033.54 from the SUS perspective. And of this amount R $ 14,380.13 was due to non-preventable EAM and R $ 12,083.77 due to preventable EAM. In the perspective of society, there were indirect costs of R $ 70,414.00, due to the death due to medication failure. Conclusion: It is concluded that the financial impact requires attention of managers, in the sense that avoiding such costs, it opens up possibilities for new investments.
Referencial Teórico: O evento adverso a medicamento (EAM) pode ocorrer devido à reação adversa e ao erro de medicação. Os danos causados pelos eventos adversos (EA) podem acarretar ao paciente o aumento do tempo de internação hospitalar, reinternação, maior morbidade, necessidade de intervenções diagnósticas e terapêuticas, consequências irreversíveis como a morte e grande impacto econômico. Objetivo: Este estudo tem por objetivo analisar os custos decorrentes de eventos adversos a medicamentos em pacientes hospitalizados. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo, realizado em um hospital público do estado de Goiás com pacientes admitidos nas clínicas de internação adulto no ano de 2016 e que sofreram EAM. A coleta de dados ocorreu entre os meses maio e outubro de 2017. Os dados foram coletados através de caderno de registro de enfermagem e de prontuários dos pacientes. Foram analisados tempo adicional de internação, horas trabalhadas pelo profissional de saúde, procedimentos terapêuticos e diagnósticos, e recursos utilizados por esses usuários relacionados ao EAM. Em caso de óbito, foi calculado o salário médio anual pelos anos de vidas de trabalho para a sociedade perdidos. Os custos dos materiais foram obtidos através de um sistema de licitação e da unidade de contabilidade de custos do próprio hospital, do Painel de Preços do Governo Federal, e dos procedimentos através da Tabela SIGTAP. Os dados foram digitados na planilha Excel e analisados por estatística simples. O presente estudo foi submetido e aprovado no comitê de ética com protocolo na GEP/HC/UFG nº 030/2017 e foi seguido o que é preconizado pela Resolução 466/2012. Resultados: Foram identificados 164 casos de erros de medicação e de reação adversa nos registros de enfermagem. Porém fizeram parte do estudo apenas os casos de pacientes em que havia relato no prontuário e que foi feita intervenção adicional, o que totalizou em 80 casos, sendo que 25 desses incidentes poderiam ter sido evitados. Os custos totais devido a EAM identificado no estudo foram de R$ 96.877,90. Houveram custos diretos que se totalizaram em R$ 26.463,90, tendo R$ 20.430,36 obtidos pela perspectiva do hospital e R$ 6.033,54 pela perspectiva do SUS. E desse montante R$ 14.380,13 foi devido a EAM não evitáveis e R$ 12.083,77 devido a EAM evitáveis. Na perspectiva da sociedade, houve custos indiretos de R$ 70.414,00, devido ao óbito por falhas de medicação. Conclusão: Conclui-se que o impacto financeiro requer atenção dos gestores, no sentido de que evitando tais custos, abre-se possibilidades a novos investimentos.

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction: Tenofovir disoproxil fumarato (TDF) is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor that has been used in pregnants for treatment of maternal HIV infection and for prevention of vertical transmission. Currently, there are no published studies providing data regarding the occurrence of renal abnormalities in fetuses exposed to TDF-containing regimens. Objective: To evaluate the occurrence of systemic and renal abnormalities in offspring of Wistar rats exposed to TDF during pregnancy. Methods: Female Wistar rats received a standard diet, with or without addition of TDF (100 mg/Kg diet), one week before mating and during pregnancy. Offspring from the TDF group were placed with an untreated foster mother during breastfeeding and compared with offspring from rats maintained on a standard diet during mating and pregnancy (control). Control and TDF were followed up at three and six months of age. Analyzed data: monthly body weight and systolic blood pressure (SBP), glomerular counting, renal function, biochemical parameters, and renal tissue immunoblotting for renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) and renal sodium transporters. Results: TDF offspring showed lower birth weight compared with the control group. After the third month, growth among the TDF group experienced a rapid catch-up. SBP increased progressively after the second month of age in the TDF group. The nephron number did not differ between groups. The TDF group showed glomerular structural changes. There was no significant difference in renal function between the groups studied. Plasma aldosterone was higher in the TDF group, associated with a significant increase in renal expression of RAAS. The TDF rats showed upregulation of renal sodium transporters and consequently lower urinary sodium excretion. Conclusions: This is the first demonstration using an experimental model that maternal exposure to TDF during gestation results in over activation of RAAS, upregulation of renal sodium transporters and hypertension of the offspring

Повний текст джерелаINTRODUCTION: Infantile hemangioma (HI) is the most common vascular tumor of childhood. In 1992 the International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA) defined infantile hemangioma as a benign endothelial cell tumor with specific clinical, radiological and immunohistochemical characteristics. The origin of HI is still unknown. It is known that they have spontaneous involutive potential and that the treatment is indicated in 10% to 20% of the cases, and it can be emergency or elective. Emergency indications include life threatening situations. Elective indications are reserved for cases of hemangiomas located in areas that may lead to permanent deformity and/or scarring, when they present local complications or small lesions in exposed areas, and this treatment may be clinical or surgical. Drug therapy has been the routine and historically the most widely used option was the corticosteroid, whose efficacy is variable and the adverses events are frequent. In 2008 a fortuity finding introduced beta-blockers as a new option for HI treatment, with stable results and subsequent clinical evidence of drug benefit in the treatment of HI. In this context, it was proposed to evaluate the use of propranolol, quantifying its efficacy, safety and incidence of adverse events, compared to the use of prednisolone. METHODS: Prospective randomized interventional study with 50 patients with HI from the \"Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo\". The patients selected were younger than 2 years and had an elective indication of treatment. Patients included were randomly allocated into 2 groups, the first group being treated with predinisolone (PRED) and the other with propranolol (PROP), both orally, for 2 months. Patients were followed weekly to measure clinical parameters including weight, blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and oxygen saturation, as well as an objective evaluation of the occurrence of adverse events. The response to treatment was quantitatively assessed by means of direct measures of the lesion and by 3 independent evaluators according to criteria of improvement of general clinical appearance, volume, color and functional involvement. Adverse events were evaluated for their incidence and severity, using the classification of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. RESULTS: Twenty-six patients were allocated to the PRED group and 24 to the PROP group. Overall, 37 patients completed the 8-week follow-up. In 8 cases there was an early interruption of treatment due to adverse events, in 1 case due to therapeutic failure and in 4 cases there was loss of follow-up. The mean age in the PRED group was 6.46 months and in the PROP group of 7.25 months. The female gender was predominant in both groups. The face was the most affected anatomic location, followed by the trunk. The treatment response was effective and without distinction between groups, with a significant reduction of the measures evaluated. Regarding the clinical evaluations according to the interclass correlation coefficient, there was excellent internal agreement among the evaluators. The scores attributed to the patients showed improvement with the treatment and in the item color there was a significant difference in favor of the PROP group. Regarding the clinical parameters measured, weight percentile showed progressive elevation in the PRED group, presenting significant difference in relation to the PROP group. The difference in systolic BP measurements between groups was significant and multivariate analysis showed a significant increase in the PRED group, whereas in the PROP group there was no change in pressure levels. The HR evaluation revealed a significant decline in the PROP group in the 6th week, not remaining in the remainder of the period. No changes in oxygen saturation measurements were identified. Regarding the incidence and adverse events (AE), the difference between the groups was significant. In the PRED group 22 patients presented 35 AEs, the most frequent being cushingoid appearance, elevated BP and infections. In the PROP group 10 patients presented 10 AEs including hypotension and respiratory disorders. When the severity of AE was assessed, no differences were observed. CONCLUSION: Prednisolone and propranolol were equally effective in reducing the tumor. Considering the adverse events, the use of propranolol was shown as a more tolerable treatment in relation to corticosteroid use

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction: Vancomycin is considered the first choice antibiotic for treatment of staphylococcus infection. Vancomycin is eliminated through glomerular filtration, and so it is administration must be individualized according the renal function. Current treatment guidelines recommend higher doses and blood levels in order to increase the odds for an adequate clinical outcome. On the other hand, this strategy might cause higher vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity. Objectives: To analyze the frequency of acute kidney injury (AKI) development in patients with suspicion of staphylococcus infection treated with vancomycin, or other antibiotics with the same therapeutic profile in a tertiary hospital. To analyze the association of vancomycin with AKI development in those patients. To analyze the risk factors for AKI development in vancomycin-treated patients. To identify the risk factors associated to early and late mortality in patients with suspicion of staphylococcus infection treated with vancomycin, or other antibiotics with the same therapeutic profile in a tertiary hospital.Methodology:We analyzed the files of all the patients with suspicion of staphylococcus infection treated with vancomycin, teicoplanin, oxacillin, daptomycin, or linezolid antibiotics for at least three days during the years of 2010 and 2011 in a tertiary hospital.The frequency of AKI development (KDIGO criteria) was assessed. Using logistic regression we assessed if vancomycin use was an independent risk factor for AKI development and the risk factors for AKI development in the group of patients treated with vancomycin. We assessed, using Cox regression, the risk factors for in-hospital, six months and one year after hospitalization mortality. Results: We included 591 patients in the final analysis, 508 using vancomycin and 83 using other antibiotics (teicoplanin, oxacillin, daptomycin, or linezolid). AKI developed in 28.5% of the vancomycin group compared with 14.5% in the other antibiotics group (p < 0.001). Patients treated with vancomycin showed parameters suggesting higher clinical severity, such as higher percent of staphylococcus positive cultures, severe hypotension, higher leukocytes blood count, higher serum levels of lactate, procalcitonin and CRP. When patients developing AKI were compared with patients maintaining preserved renal function, the first group showed a statistically significant higher frequency of vancomycin use, longer vancomycin treatment and higher vancomycin through levels. Using logistic regression vancomycin was identified as an independent risk factor for AKI development. The independent risk factors for AKI development in the vancomycin group were simultaneous use of vancomycin and other nephrotoxic drugs or drugs that influence renal function, vasopressor drugs use and blood levels of vancomycin >= 20 mg/L. Vancomycin was not associated with mortality in any studied time, whereas AKI was an independent risk factor for early and late mortality. Conclusions: These results indicate that vancomycin is associated with significative nephrotoxicity and that its blood levels must be mandatorily assessed. The use of drugs that are nephrotoxic or influence renal function must be, when feasible, avoided or halted in vancomycin-treated patients. AKI development, but not vancomycin use, was an independent risk factor for mortality, reinforcing the perception that vancomycin can be used when necessary, since AKI development is prevented

Повний текст джерелаAcquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has become one of the world\'s most serious health problem. Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) was the first available nucleotidic reverse transcription inhibitor and is a widely prescribed antiretroviral medication for treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). However, the long-term use of TDF has been associated with a number of toxicities, including those affecting the kidney. Vitamin D deficiency is prevalent among HIVinfected individuals. Vitamin D not only regulates numerous physiological activities of multiple organ systems, but also protects the kidney from injury from different causes. Thus, HIV-infected subjects with low levels of vitamin D could experience increased complications during antiretroviral therapy, such as cardiovascular disease and renal impairment. In view of the high worldwide incidence of hypovitaminosis D, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of vitamin D deficiency on TDF-induced nephrotoxicity. Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control, receiving a standard diet for 60 days; dVD, receiving a vitamin D-free diet for 60 days; TDF, receiving a standard diet for 60 days with the addition of TDF (50 mg/kg food) for the last 30 days; and dVD+TDF receiving a vitamin D-free diet for 60 days with the addition of TDF for the last 30 days. At the end of the protocol, animals were euthanized and blood, urine and tissue samples were collected in order to evaluate the mechanisms responsible for renal injury. TDF led to impaired renal function, hyperphosphaturia, hypophosphatemia, hypertension and increased renal vascular resistance due to downregulation of the sodium-phosphorus cotransporter and upregulation of reninangiotensin- aldosterone system (RAAS). TDF also increased oxidative stress, as evidenced by higher TBARS and lower GSH levels, and induced dyslipidemia. Association of TDF and vitamin D deficiency aggravated renovascular effects and TDFinduced nephrotoxicity at least in part by the increase of oxidative stress and the involvement of RAAS. Hence, it is important to monitor vitamin D levels in HIV-infected patients treated with TDF

O uso de Medicamentos Potencialmente Inapropriados (MPIs) em idosos pode comprometer a efetividade ou a segurança da farmacoterapia e têm se destacado como importante desafio para saúde pública, visto que está associado a elevados índices de morbidade e mortalidade. Pesquisas nacionais que investigaram esse tema revelam que as prevalências de uso de MPIs variam de 28,0% a 82,6%; contudo, esses estudos utilizaram listas de MPIs validadas na América do Norte e Europa, uma vez que o primeiro consenso brasileiro sobre MPIs foi publicado somente no final de 2016. Segundo os autores, a lista desenvolvida apresenta algumas lacunas no conhecimento, uma vez que foi baseada em critérios publicados até 2012 e, portanto, não inclui as versões mais atualizadas publicadas em 2015, bem como não incorpora possíveis alternativas terapêuticas para os medicamentos que compõem a lista. Dessa forma, este estudo teve como objetivo estabelecer critérios explícitos para avaliação de MPIs prescritos aos idosos no Brasil e suas respetivas alternativas terapêuticas. O projeto englobou duas etapas complementares: 1- Elaboração da lista de critérios explícitos para avaliação de medicamentos inapropriados para idosos a partir de revisão sistemática já realizada; 2- Validação da proposta por consenso de especialistas utilizando técnica Delphi; A primeira etapa, elaboração da lista preliminar de MPIs, foi baseada em um estudo de revisão sistemática das listas publicadas entre janeiro/1991 e abril/2017.Realizou-se também uma análise qualitativa das listas com o objetivo de verificar a aplicabilidade destas ao mercado brasileiro em termos de disponibilidade e frequência de prescrição. Dessa forma, selecionaram-se três listas de MPIs: Beers 2015, STOPP 2015, European Union (7) PIM list. Ao final desse processo, obteve-se 153 critérios distribuídos em sete instrumentos: Dor e Inflamação, Sistema Cardiovascular, Sistema Endócrino, Geniturinário, Sistema Respiratório, Sistema Nervoso Central, sendo os dois primeiros já validados por meio da técnica Delphi modificada. Considerou-se validados os itens para os quais o limite inferior do IC 95% foi superior ou igual a 4,0. O consenso sobre MPIs - Dor e inflamação foi constituído duas rodadas. Um grupo de nove especialistas atingiu consenso sobre 98 (63,2%) das 155 questões apresentadas: 31/34 preocupações independente do diagnóstico, 4/4 preocupações quanto à dose, 4/4 preocupações quanto a duração do tratamento, 19/20 preocupações quanto ao uso em condições específicas, 12/23 considerações especiais de uso e 28/68 alternativas terapêuticas. No consenso sobre MPIs -Sistema Cardiovascular, um grupo de sete especialista atingiu consenso sobre 84 das 257 questões apresentadas: 20/25 preocupações independente do diagnóstico, 4/4 preocupações quanto à dose, 37/57 preocupações quanto ao uso em condições específicas, 20/105 considerações especiais de uso e 3/66 alternativas terapêuticas. Embora a validação de listas de MPIs a partir da opinião de especialistas seja um processo complexo, a listas desenvolvidas poderão ampliar o conhecimento sobre MPIs no país, uma vez que são baseadas em consensos recentes. Desse modo, esta pesquisa possibilitará um melhor entendimento da magnitude do uso de MPIs no Brasil, e poderá contribuir para o desenvolvimento de estratégias e intervenções mais eficazes para a redução dos problemas relacionados ao uso de medicamentos em idosos no país.
The use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) for older patients is a public health problem because it can compromise the effectiveness or safety of pharmacotherapy and is responsible for high rates of morbidity and mortality in this age group. Brazilian studies that investigated PIMs show that the prevalence of PIM use ranges from 28.0% to 82.6%. However, these studies used PIM lists developed in other countries in North America and Europe. The first Brazilian consensus on PIMs was published in 2016. Limitations reported by the authors included that the PIM list was based on previous versions of Beers (2012) and STOPP (2008), therefore, it did not include the most up-to-date versions published in 2015, and did not incorporate therapeutic alternatives. The aim of the present study is to develop and validate explicit criteria for the evaluation of PIMs prescribed to older patients in Brazil and their respective therapeutic alternatives. The development of this project comprises of two steps: 1- Elaboration of the preliminary PIM list for older patients based on a systematic literature review; 2 - Validation of the preliminary PIM list with the consensus of experts using modified Delphi technique; The elaboration of the preliminary list of MPIs was based on a systematic review of PIM lists published between January 1991 and April 2017. A qualitative analysis of the PIM lists was performed with the objective of verifying their applicability to the Brazilian market. This way, three lists of PIMs were selected: Beers’ 2015, STOPP 2015, and European Union (7) PIM. Thus, we obtained 153 explicit criteria distributed across seven instruments: PIMs–Pain and Inflammation, PIMs–Cardiovascular System, PIMs–Endocrine System, PIMs–Genitourinary, PIMs–Respiratory System, and PIMs–Central Nervous System. The first two were already validated using the modified Delphi technique. The items for which the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) was greater than or equal to 4.0 were considered to have been validated. The consensus on PIMs–Pain and Inflammation was formed by two rounds. A group of nine experts reached consensus on 98 (63.2%) of the 155 items. A consensus was reached for 31/34 concerns regardless of diagnosis, 4/4 dose concerns, 4/4 concerns about the duration of treatment, 19/20 concerns about use under specific conditions, 12/23 special considerations of use, and 28/68 therapeutic alternatives. In the consensus on PIMs–Cardiovascular System, a group of seven experts reached consensus on 84 of the 257 questions. A consensus was reached for 20/25 concerns independent of diagnosis, 4/4 concerns regarding dose, 37/57 concerns regarding use under specific conditions, 20/105 special considerations of use and 3/66 therapeutic alternatives. Although the development and validation of PIM lists based on expert opinion is a long and complex process, the development of PIM list based on recent consensuses will expand the knowledge about the PIMs in Brazil. Thus, this research will improve the understanding of the magnitude of PIM use in this country, and may contribute to the development of more effective strategies and interventions to reduce drug-related problems among older Brazilian patients.

Повний текст джерелаBACKGROUND: Iodopovidone has been described as a sclerosing agent easily obtained, inexpensive and with good results. Despite this, its safety has not been systematically evaluated and some authors have restrictions to its use because of reports of some adverse events related. OBJECTIVE: To describe the occurrence of common and serious adverse events after iodopovidone pleurodesis. Second endpoints were to describe dose-dependent relation to adverse events, procedure efficacy and patient\'s quality of life. METHODS: clinical trial including patients with recurrent malignant pleural effusion, undergone to pleurodesis, randomized into two groups: group 1 received 1% iodopovidone and group 2 received 2% Iodopovidone. We sought adverse events systematically with clinical and complementary evaluations since before pleurodesis and on several times postoperative. Clinical evaluation involved pain analog scale, dyspnea scale, oxygen saturation, heart frequency, arterial blood pressure, body temperature and visual acuity. Complementary evaluation was done by electrocardiogram, chest x-ray and laboratory tests (hemogram, renal function, liver function and thyroid function). All adverse events were graduated according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAEV). Efficacy was considered when the patients did not need further pleural procedure after pleurodesis and quality of life analysis was determined by questionnaire. RESULTS: Sixty patients were enrolled, thirty in each group, 55 females and 5 males. Mean age was 55,9 ± 11,7. The mainly etiology of malignant pleural effusion was breast cancer, in 43 patients, followed by lung cancer and ovarian tumor. We found 47 serious adverse events, possibly related to iodopovidone pleurodesis that occurred in 34 patients on 30 days follow-up. Most frequent clinical adverse events of these were pain, eleven patients, hypertension, ten and empyema in one patients. Serious metabolic events founded were hyponatremia in eight patients, alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase increased in ten, three and one patients respectively and hypokalemia in one patient. Success rate occurred in 96%. We didn\'t find change on quality of life after pleurodesis. We found no difference in patient\'s demographical data, occurrence of adverse events, efficacy and quality of life between groups. CONCLUSIONS: Observed common and serious adverse events related to iodopovidone pleurodesis were pain, hypertension, and some metabolic alterations. We found good efficacy for iodopovidone pleurodesis, but no significant change in patient\'s quality of life after procedure. This report does not suggest dose-dependent relation for the occurrence of adverse events

Повний текст джерелаHypodermoclysis (HDC) is an important alternative technique for the administration of drugs and fluids into the subcutaneous tissue. It is frequently used for symptom control in palliative care patients, with difficult venous access and unable to tolerate oral medications. However, few studies address the use of HDC as a whole to fluid replacement and drug therapy, both continuous and intermittent mode, observing details and complications of its use. The objectives of this study included characterizing the use of HDC to administer drugs, solutions and electrolytes and to evaluate possible local complications also identifying other factors influencing their occurrence. Prospective observational study with data collection in medical records and daily monitoring of advanced cancer inpatients of the palliative care team of São Paulo State Cancer Institute (ICESP) in use of HDC, checking infusion site, administered drugs and possible complications, following the details of its use. Non-parametrical statistical analysis and logistic regression were performed. Were followed 99 patients with 243 infusion sites, which 166 (68.3%) in the thigh and 46 (18.9%) in the abdomen. The most commonly used drugs were morphine in 122 (50.2%) infusion sites, followed by dipyrone in 118 (48.6%) and dexamethasone in 86 (35.4%). The most prescribed solution was dextrose 5%/0,9% saline in 38 (15.6%) infusion sites because of its caloric intake. 13.6% of punctures (33 of 243) had complications, only six larger cases (edema). Complications occurred mainly up to the second day of the infusion sites and were associated with the number (p=0,007) and volume (p=0,042) of drugs used as also with 5% dextrose/0.9% saline solution (p=0,003) and NaCl (p=0,037) and KCl (p=0,013) electrolytes. This study has allowed the knowledge of factors associated with complications and proposes some recommendations as: individualization of therapy especially related to the volume of choice, number of drugs administered, and avoid adding electrolytes to the 5% dextrose/0.9% saline solution

Повний текст джерелаPURPOSE: Cognitive dysfunction may occur after chemotherapy in cancer survivors, especially in those that received chemotherapy for breast cancer. The frequency and to which extent such toxicity develops in colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors is unknown. This prospective study evaluated the effects of adjuvant chemotherapy on the cognitive performance of patients with localized CRC in comparison with a control group who did not receive chemotherapy. METHODS: Consecutive patients with localized stages II and III CRC completed neuropsychological assessments, self-reported cognitive complaints questionnaires, and depressive symptoms evaluation before starting fluoropyrimidine-based adjuvant chemotherapy (t1) and after 12 months (t2). Control group was assessed at matching intervals. Blood was collected for apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotyping. Clinical and demographic data were also collected. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data was acquired from a subset of participants at both time-points. RESULTS: From December 2012 to December 2014, 137 patients were approached and 85 patients were recruited: 59 received chemotherapy (CTh+) and 26 did not (CTh-), based on standard recommendation for adjuvant therapy for CRC. The mean age was 62.5 years (SD 9.4), 60% were male, and the mean years of education was 7.6 (SD 3.7). No difference was found on global composite score (p=0.38), attention (p= 0.84) or memory (p= 0.97) between the two groups during the followup (mean 375 days, SD 29). However there was a significant difference on executive function domain, after adjustment for age, sex, education, and depressive symptoms at baseline (beta - 1.80; 95%CI -3.50; -0.11, p=0.04), suggesting worse performance for the CTh+ group. In 32 patients who underwent MRI, there was no significant differences for all DTI indices in any white matter regions between CTh+ and CTh- groups during follow-up. APOE polymorphisms were not predictive of cognitive dysfunction. CONCLUSION: After adjusting for confounding factors, patients with CRC who received adjuvant fluorouracil with or without oxaliplatin presented cognitive decline on executive function after 12 months in comparison with patients with localized disease that did not receive chemotherapy

Introdução: Os problemas relacionados à interrupção e ao abandono do tratamento da tuberculose culminam em aumento da morbimortalidade. A ocorrência de reações adversas a medicamentos (RAM) é apontada como um dos principais fatores relacionados. Objetivo: Identificar evidência científica disponível sobre os fatores de risco associados às reações adversas decorrentes do uso de medicamentos antituberculose. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática em que se buscou estudos sobre fatores de risco associados às reações adversas aos medicamentos antituberculose nas bases Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), no período entre 1965 e 2013 e Literatura Científica e Técnica da América Latina e Caribe (LILACS), no período entre 1982 e 2013. Localizou-se 1389 artigos que passaram por uma triagem a partir da leitura dos títulos e resumos. A partir dessa análise, selecionou-se 85 estudos para serem lidos na íntegra. Ao final, 16 estudos foram incluídos na análise a partir dos critérios de elegibilidade adotados em cada etapa, que tiveram seus dados extraídos para os cálculos de Qui-quadrado, Mantel-haenszel, Odds ratio simples (OR) e combinada (ORc). Resultados: Os fatores de risco significantes para o desenvolvimento de RAM foram: idade (maior que 60 anos), esquemas de tratamento, alcoolismo, anemia, coinfecção pelo vírus da imunodeficiência humana ou vírus da hepatite, polimorfismo da N-acetiltransferase 2 (acetilador lento), além da deficiência de sódio, ferro e albumina. Enquanto as meta-análises evidenciaram que os fatores de proteção das RAM hepáticas são: sexo masculino (ORc=0,38; IC95%=0,20-0,72), idade >35 anos (ORc=0,38; IC95%=0,20-0,72), fenótipo acetilador rápido/intermediário da N-acetiltransferase 2 (ORc=0,41; IC95%=0,18-0,90). Conclusões: Há evidências para subsidiar o manejo de RAM antituberculose nos serviços de saúde pública.
Setting: The problems related to the interruption and the dropout of tuberculosis treatments lead to increased morbi-mortality. Drugs adverse effects are some of the main related reasons. Objective: To identify scientific evidence available about risk factors associated to adverse effects due to antituberculosis drugs usage. Design: A systematic review of studies about risk factors related to adverse effects of antituberculosis drugs selected in MEDLINE database from 1965 to 2013 and in LILACS database from 1982 to 2013. After screening papers by reading all titles and abstracts there were 1.389 approved papers. Based on this analysis, 85 papers were selected to be fully read. At the end, 16 papers were selected to be analyzed due to the eligibility criteria on each step, had their data extracted for calculation of Chi-square, Mantel-Haenszel, Odds ratio (OR) and combined Odds ratio (ORc). Results: Significant risk factors to the development of drugs adverse effects were: age over 60 years, treatment regimen, alcoholism, anemia, coinfection by human immunodeficiency or hepatitis viruses, phenotype slow acetylators of N-acetyltransferase 2 and the deficiency of sodium, iron and albumin. While, meta- analysis showed that protective factors of liver AED are: male (ORc = 0.38, 95%CI= 0.20 to 0.72), age > 35 years (ORc=0.38, CI95%=0.20 to 0.72), acetylator phenotype fast / intermediate of N-acetyltransferase 2 (ORc=0.41, 95% I= 0.18 to 0.90). Conclusion: There is evidence to support the management of antituberculosis AED in public health services.

Повний текст джерелаXerostomia is a common and usually irreversible radiotherapy side effect in patients with head and neck cancer, affecting the patients quality of life. Many attempts have been suggested to manage this condition nevertheless of questionable results. This study evaluated the acupuncture treatment efficacy as a preventive and curative method for radiation-induced xerostomia. The patients were randomly assigned in three groups: preventive, composed of 12 individuals, without complaints of dry mouth, treated with 12-16 acupuncture sessions, before and concomitant radiotherapy; curative, composed by 12 individuals, diagnosed with severe xerostomia, treated with 12 acupuncture sessions after radiation therapy, and control, comprised of the curatives group patients at the moment of the first visit, preceding this therapy. Acupuncture treatment, according to traditional Chinese medicine and occidental orthodox medicine concepts was performed twice a week, lasting 20 minutes each session, following standardize techniques for all patients. Acupuncture efficacy was evaluated, based upon objective and subjective methods of xerostomia measurements, performed by sialometry, measuring the resting and stimulated salivary flow rates (RSFR and SSFR), and by means of questionnaires such as Xerostomia Inventory (XI) modified, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS), which evaluated referred symptoms. Results obtained in preventive group, evidenced RSFR (P<0.001) and SSFR (P<0.001) significantly increased, and improvement of symptoms (P<0.001), compared with control. Within curative group, after acupuncture treatment, the results showed statistically significant improved for both resting and stimulated salivary flow rates (P<0.05) and reduces of referred symptoms (P<0.05). There were statistically differences between groups, being the patients in preventive group those who evidenced the most significant improved of values (P<0.001) for objective and subjective evaluations. We concluded that acupuncture plays an important role in xerostomias treatment, as shown by the results, reaching a significant confiability of efficacy, indicating and suggesting the preventive method at oncology centers.

Повний текст джерелаAdverse drug reaction (ADR) is a serious concern that has important health and economical repercussions. Between 1.9%-2.3% of the hospitalized patients suffer from ADR, and the annual cost of ADR have been estimated to be of 400 million euros in Germany alone. Furthermore, ADRs can cause the withdrawal of a drug from the market, which can cause up to millions of dollars of losses to the pharmaceutical industry.Multiple studies suggest that genetic factors may play a role in the response of the patients to their treatment. This covers not only the response in terms of the intended main effect, but also % according toin terms of potential side effects. The complexity of predicting drug response suggests that machine learning could bring new tools and techniques for understanding ADR.In this doctoral thesis, we study different problems related to drug response prediction, based on the genetic characteristics of patients.We frame them through multitask machine learning frameworks, which combine all data available for related problems in order to solve them at the same time.We propose a novel model for multitask linear prediction that uses task descriptors to select relevant features and make predictions with better performance as state-of-the-art algorithms. Finally, we study strategies for increasing the stability of the selected features, in order to improve interpretability for biological applications

After introduction of multi-drug therapy (MDT/OMS) there were decline in prevalence coefficients and new cases detections, however, the records of drug resistance and relapse cases are threatening factors against lepra control, therefore, the importance of new alternative schemes and monitoring adverse effects, avoiding abandonment or irregularity to treatment. Objectives: Describe side-effects of multi-drug regimen containing minocycline, ofloxacin and clofazimine in multibacillary (MB) leprosy patients and analyse the clinicalbacteriologic indices. Materials and Methods: A prospective, descriptive and observational study, in multibacillary patients, including intolerance cases of standard MDT and relapse cases, carried out in Alfredo da Matta Foundation, Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil, during april 2010 and january 2012. The side-effects were recorded of every individual patient, filled during the course of alternative treatment. The patients received alternative therapy with daily self-administered doses of 100mg of minocycline, 400 mg of ofloxacin and 50mg of clofazimine and a month supervised dose of 300mg of clofazimine for 06 months, thereafter 18 months of daily self-administered doses of ofloxacin 400mg, clofazimine 50mg and month supervised dose of clofazimine 300mg. Results and Discussions: During research 26 patients were treated, however, of these, only 21 cases were included in this study. The mild and not persistent side-effects occurred in 33,3% of patients. From the 37 side-effects, 45,9% episodes was attributed to ofloxacin, such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, headache and insomnia; 21,6% due to clofazimine, 100% of patients with skin pigmentation; however, no side-effets due to minocycline. Mean duration for the development of adverse effects from the start of therapy was 15,2 days. The media interval of follow-up was 13,7 months and 23,8% of patients completed the 24 months trerapy. All the patients tolerated the drugs well and the adhesion was satisfactory, among 15 patients that completed the first treatment year, 14 took 12 doses at 12 months from alternative regimen. Conclusion: The alternative therapy had a similar feasibility and operational mode from MB/MDT, with safe, well tolerated and good adhesion with no serious events. The side-effects attributed to alternative regimen were comparable to previous studies, however this new three drugs combination indicates the importance of these research results. No drug was stopped unlike others standard MDT studies which had treatment interruption by side-effects. There was significant correlation (p<0,001) between clinical classification and histopatologic diagnosis. At the end of first year, there was clinical improvement and bacteriologic index reduction. Nevertheless, it s necessary a follow-up and new inclusions to guarantee the efficacy and safe for the alternative regimen.
Após introdução do esquema poliquimioterápico padrão (PQT/OMS), houve declínio nos coeficientes de prevalência e detecção de casos novos, entretanto, os registros de resistência medicamentosa e casos de recidiva representam ameaça para o controle da hanseníase, por isso a importância da proposição de novos esquemas alternativos e a necessidade de monitorar seus efeitos adversos, evitando-se casos de abandono ou irregularidade ao tratamento. Objetivos: Descrever os efeitos adversos do esquema terapêutico alternativo, contendo a associação clofazimina, ofloxacina e minociclina, em pacientes com hanseníase multibacilar e análise da evolução clínico-baciloscópica dos pacientes. Materiais e Métodos: Estudo prospectivo, descritivo e observacional, de casos multibacilares, incluindo casos de recidiva da doença ou intolerância à poliquimioterapia padrão, realizado na Fundação Alfredo da Matta, Manaus, Amazonas, Brasil, no período de abril de 2010 e janeiro de 2012. Os efeitos adversos foram registrados em formulários individuais para cada paciente, preenchidos ao longo do tratamento. Os indivíduos receberam o esquema alternativo, composto de doses diárias auto-administradas de 100mg de minociclina, 400mg de ofloxacina e 50mg de clofazimina e dose mensal supervisionada de 300mg de clofazimina por seis meses, seguida de 18 meses de doses diárias autoadministradas de ofloxacina 400mg, clofazimina 50 mg e dose supervisionada mensal de clofazimina 300mg. Resultados: Durante o período foram selecionados 26 pacientes, dos quais 21 foram incluídos no estudo. Efeitos adversos leves e transitórios foram observados em 33,3% dos pacientes. Do total de 37 efeitos secundários, 45,9% foram atribuídos à ofloxacina, como dor abdominal, náuseas, vômitos, cefaléia e insônia; 21,6% associados à clofazimina, com relatos e observação em 100% dos pacientes de hiperpigmentação cutânea; entretanto, nenhum efeito foi relacionado à minociclina, especificamente. O tempo médio de desenvolvimento das reações adversas a partir do início do esquema foi de 15,2 dias. A duração média do acompanhamento dos pacientes foi de 13,7 meses, sendo que 23,8% dos pacientes já concluíram o tratamento em 24 meses. A adesão e regularidade ao esquema foram satisfatórias, dos 15 pacientes que já completaram o primeiro ano de tratamento, 14 indivíduos realizaram 12 doses do esquema proposto em 12 meses. Discussão/Conclusão: O esquema alternativo demonstrou viabilidade e operacionalização semelhantes ao esquema PQT/MB, com segurança, boa tolerabilidade e adesão dos pacientes. A porcentagem de efeitos adversos às drogas foi compatível a de outros trabalhos, contudo, a inovação na combinação das três drogas acima, demonstra a importância dos resultados desta pesquisa. Não houve registros de casos graves que indicassem à suspensão ou interrupção do tratamento. Houve correlação significativa (p<0,001) entre a classificação clínica e o diagnóstico histopatológico. Ao fim do primeiro ano do esquema alternativo, os pacientes apresentaram melhora clínica e redução do índice baciloscópico médio. Todavia, há necessidade de acompanhamento dos indivíduos e aumento do número amostral para garantir a eficácia e segurança ao tratamento em longo prazo.

Повний текст джерелаAdverse drug reactions are a major cause of morbidity and mortality also in pediatric population. The need of prescribers to assess the efficay and safety of the drugs used in the pediatric population contrasts with the lack of valid scientific information for this population. That clearly differ from adults in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics. Additionally, the lack of pediatric clinical trials increases the need of specific prospective surveillance system on adverse drug reactions. The aim of this thesis is to contribute to the knowledge of adverse drug reactions in the pediatric population through the spontaneous reports of suspected adverse drug reactions gathered by the Spanish Pharmacovigilance System (SPhS). Two aspects have been analyzed: an analysis of the main characteristics of drug-induced pancreatitis in pediatric population. During the study period, the SPhS received 58 reports of pancreatitis in children, just over 6% of all pancreatitis in this database. The drugs most frequently involved were: L-asparaginasa in children and valproic acid in adolescents. An antiretroviral has been involved in 10% of pancreatitis; stavudine and didanosine were the most frequent. Most reports described severe pancreatitis. Of the six fatal cases, three were patients with hematologic malignancy receiving L-asparaginasa and two were HIV patients receiving antiretroviral drugs. An additional analysis was the study of parasomnia induced by montelukast, a drug used in pediatric population to treat asthma. The most common parasomnia was sleep disorders (> 50 % nightmares). Up to 90 % of parasomnias were reported in children between 2 and 11 years. Parasomnias are potentially serious reactions, can cause injuries and violent behavior during sleep. The Spontaneous Reporting of Adverse Drug Reations Program –The «Yellow Card Scheme»– is a method that allows the quick identification of new risks associated to medicines. It is efficient for detecting new signals of rare and unknown reactions, as well as those with a long latency period that cannot be identified with randomized clinical trials. For this reason pharmacovigilance should be promoted in children. Is important to note that some adverse effects are preventable can be avoided. It is necessary for the prudent use of medicines.

Повний текст джерелаA introdução de espécies exóticas na prática clínica veterinária exige uma actualização constante nesta área. A anestesia é, muitas vezes, necessária para a elaboração de procedimentos de rotina nestes animais. Os anestésicos mais utilizados neste âmbito são os anestésicos voláteis, devido às suas características farmacológicas. São eliminados, principalmente pelos pulmões, evitando assim a formação de metabolitos tóxicos noutros órgãos. Possuem ainda um baixo coeficiente de solubilidade sangue/gás, permitindo uma rápida indução e recuperação anestésica. O Isoflurano é o anestésico volátil mais utilizado em veterinária, contudo, a recente introdução do Sevoflurano na prática clínica tem ganho popularidade nesta área. Ao contrário dos animais de companhia, os coelhos possuem características anatómicas e fisiológicas que dificultam a anestesia. Os principais problemas da anestesia nesses animais são o stress, a hipóxia e a presença de doenças subclínicas concomitantes, sendo assim essencial, uma correcta escolha do agente, assim como, da técnica anestésica a utilizar. O objectivo desta dissertação foi comparar os dois anestésicos em relação aos tempos de indução e recuperação anestésicos, a qualidade da indução e alguns efeitos cardio-respiratórios, assim como a temperatura, em cirurgias de rotina desta espécie. Foram anestesiados quarenta e dois animais, divididos aleatoriamente em dois grupos de vinte e um animais. Um grupo foi anestesiado com Sevoflurano e o outro com Isoflurano. A indução foi realizada com máscara anestésica. A anestesia com o Sevoflurano resultou num menor tempo de indução anestésico e numa melhor qualidade de indução comparado com o Isoflurano, contudo o tempo de recuperação anestésico foi semelhante para ambos os anestésicos. No grupo Sevoflurano verificou-se uma menor hipotensão e menor depressão dos mecanismos homeostáticos reguladores da temperatura, quando comparado com o grupo Isoflurano. Ambos os anestésicos estão associados a depressão cardiovascular e respiratória, de forma similar. Em geral, o Sevoflurano foi associado a menos efeitos adversos do que o Isoflurano, podendo assim, o seu uso, ser preferível ao Isoflurano, nesta espécie animal.
ABSTRACT - Comparative study of anesthetics Sevoflurane vs Isoflurane in rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculi) - The anesthesia is essential in most of the routine procedures in exotic pets. Since there is a lack of information about anesthesia in rabbits, it was considered important to study their physiologic response to Sevoflurane and Isoflurane during several different surgical procedures. The volatile anesthetics are, currently, the most common used agents in exotic pet medicine, because of their pharmacologic characteristics. They are mostly eliminated in the lungs, preventing the formation of toxic metabolites in other organs, and in addition to this, they have low solubility in the blood, which allows a rapid induction and anesthetic recovery. Unlike cats and dogs, rabbits have anatomic and physiologic characteristics that difficult anesthesia, like stress, hypoxia and presence of subclinical diseases, so it’s important a correct choice of the agent as well as an appropriate anesthesia technique. Isoflurane is still the most used, however Sevoflurane, which was recently introduced in exotic pet medicine, its gaining popularity among clinicians. The purpose of this thesis was to compare times of anesthetic induction and recovery, cardiopulmonary, temperature and behavioral effects of Sevoflurane and Isoflurane anesthesia in routine surgeries of rabbits. Forty-two rabbits were randomly divided in two equal groups, both of them were induced with anesthetics masks, however in one group it was used Sevoflurane for induction and maintenance, and in the other one was used Isoflurane. The cardiopulmonary parameters and temperature were recorded every five minutes. Sevoflurane showed shorter induction time and better quality of induction than Isoflurane, however the recovery time was similar in both anesthetics. It also noticed less hypotension effects and less depression of homeostatic mechanisms that control body temperature when compared with Isoflurane. Both anesthetics were related with cardiovascular and respiratory depression in a similar manner, nevertheless, Sevoflurane was associated with less adverse effects. In conclusion, the use of Sevoflurane may be preferable to the use of Isoflurane in rabbit anesthesia.

Повний текст джерелаThe present paper aims at investigating the occurrence of side effects by industrialized food in human health with the point of examining whether this food available to the consumers is in agreement to the health safety patterns, which are essential to the satisfaction of basic needs of a healthy body, as well as the constitutional warranties that provide to brazilians the fundamental right to nourishment, healthy quality of life and to the safety of human health. As a social right, the right to health is assured by the brazilian constitution of 1988. For its effectiveness, it depends on positive statements from the government. The nourishment, one of the determining factors to health and crucial to the life keeping, is the condition to the achievement of all the other rights, being, therefore, a fundamental right of the human being. With the evidences that the regular consumption of industrialized food, especially when and if alligned with other factors equally harmful to human health, is directly or indirectly associated with the surging of non-transmissable chronic diseases (DCNT), such as diabetes, heart diseases, Parkinson and Alzheimer diseases, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, liver diseases, strokes, trombosis among other illnesess and patologies, the present paper has considered the analisys of the responsability of the government and companies concerning the duty of refunding the consumer because of potencial and/or effective risks generated by the availibility of unsafe food in the market. That is to say, products produced with the use of substances proving harmful to human health, as well as lack and bad conditions of sanitary vigilance concerning the inexistance of mechanisms or effective programmes for controlling and checking of quality patterns, identity and safety of nourishment that should be applied continuously and permanently to the achievement of the protection assured by the constitution. Due to the conclusions of this research and based on the constitutional principle of human being dignity, in the fundamental right to nourishment, to a healthy quality of life, to health and to the right to information, it was presented a suggestion of introducing the theme WARNINGS in the information of the compulsory lable. This topic should provide information concerning the side effects that the substancs used in the manufacturing of these products can bring about to human health
O presente trabalho tem por objetivo investigar a ocorrência de efeitos adversos dos alimentos industrializados na saúde humana com a finalidade de examinar se esses alimentos introduzidos e disponibilizados ao consumidor atendem os padrões de segurança alimentar indispensáveis à satisfação das necessidades básicas de um organismo saudável, bem como as garantias constitucionais que asseguram aos brasileiros o direito fundamental à alimentação, à sadia qualidade de vida e à incolumidade da saúde humana. Como um direito social, o direito à saúde é assegurado pela Constituição de 88, dependendo para sua efetivação, de prestações positivas do Estado. A alimentação, um dos fatores determinantes da saúde e indispensável à manutenção da vida, é condição de realização de todos os outros direitos, sendo, por isso, um direito fundamental da pessoa humana. Frente às evidências de que o consumo regular de alimentos industrializados, sobretudo quando e se aliado a outros fatores igualmente prejudiciais à saúde humana, está associado de modo direto ou indireto aos casos de aparecimento de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT) entre as quais destacam-se: diabetes, doenças cardiovasculares, mal de Parkinson, Alzheimer, osteoporose, hipertensão arterial, cirrose hepática, acidente vascular cerebral, trombose, entre diversas outras enfermidades e patologias, o presente trabalho contemplou a análise da responsabilidade do Estado e das empresas quanto ao dever de indenizar o consumidor pelos riscos potenciais e/ou efetivos gerados tanto pela disponibilização no mercado consumidor de alimentos não seguros, isto é, de produtos alimentícios fabricados com o emprego de substâncias comprovadamente nocivas à saúde humana, como pela insuficiência e precariedade das ações de vigilância sanitária face à inexistência de mecanismos e/ou programas efetivos de controle e aferição dos padrões de qualidade, identidade e inocuidade dos alimentos que deveriam ser implementados de forma contínua e em caráter permanente para realização da proteção assegurada constitucionalmente. Diante das conclusões e com amparo no princípio constitucional da dignidade da pessoa humana, do direito fundamental à alimentação, do direito à sadia qualidade de vida, à saúde e ao direito de informação, foi apresentada sugestão de colocação de Advertências nas informações de rotulagem obrigatória relativas aos efeitos adversos que os componentes utilizados na fabricação daquele produto possam causar à saúde humana

Повний текст джерелаCommunicate to patients the risks of side effects of drugs is critical for making appropriate decision by patients because the information enhances their knowledge and influence their attitudes, helping patients improve their health. Studies have shown that there are large individual differences in the interpretation of terms that are commonly used to express risk of experiencing a side effects and that understanding is influenced by the presentation of information, as well as factors related to the individual, such as literacy in health and numeracy. This study aim was to evaluate the effect of different formats of written information in the understanding of side effects by medicines user. First, was conducted a systematic review to assess the evidence of the effect of different ways to report side effects understanding of this information by the medicines user. In a second moment, clinical trial was conducted double-blind randomized (n = 393) to evaluate the efficacy of three formats, based on preliminary results of a systematic review. For the systematic review were used the MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane, EMBASE, SCIELO, LILACS, CINAHL, IPA, Web of Science, Scopus, OneFile, EBSCO and Clinical Trials, and Proquest Open Grey. The coverage period was the beginning of the database until September 2015. Were included in the review studies comparing the understanding of two or more written information formats on the frequency of adverse reactions, provided two or more groups of patients, any design. A total of 23 clinical trials in the United States and the United Kingdom were included, involving 14,342 participants. Among the included studies, 14 compared numerical and verbal formats in different combinations, 5 compared graphic formats and others showed other formats such as additional risk versus overall risk, different formats in the denominator (100 x 1000), absolute risk, relative risk and NNH (number needed to harm), positive versus negative frames. The heterogeneity between the studies did not make possible the meta-analysis of the data. Numerical forms demonstrated superiority to non-numeric in understanding the information. The use of graphics formats compared to texts also improved understanding. From the studies evaluated in this review, it is not possible to determine the best format for reporting on side effects. For example, there are no studies comparing the verbal descriptors, numeric, graphic and combined, which would favor an evaluation of the most appropriate format for the understanding of medicines users. In the second stage, was conducted a clinical trial randomized double-blind, parallel, single-center. Adult users of a pharmacy school, with reading capacity assessed by the Brief Assessment Instrument Literacy Health in Portuguese for adults (SAHLPA), were randomized to one of three groups: verbal + range of percentage, percentage range and absolute percentage. Main outcome variables were verbatim (specific numerical) and gist knowledge, classified as adequate and inadequate. The perception of users and the satisfaction of information, intended to take the drug, ease of understanding and clarity of information received were assessed as secondary endpoints. Was used analysis of variance test (ANOVA) and chi-square Person to compare the differences. Participants were recruited between June and October 2015 and were interviewed for 35 minutes on average; in total 393 participants were randomized to one of three groups. The adequate levels of gist knowledge was 65.6% and 53.9% for nominal format + percentage range (n = 128), 63.4% and 44.3% for percentage range (n = 131), 62 3% and 48.5% for absolute percentage (n = 131), with no statistically significant difference between the groups (p> 0.05). The adequate levels of verbatim knowledge was 53.9% for the nominal format + percentage range, 44.3% for percentage range and 48.5% for absolute percentage, also with no statistically significant difference between the groups (p> 0.05 ). Participants who received absolute percentage format considered the clearest information (p <0.05) compared to the other groups. There was no statistically significant difference between the three formats as the secondary outcomes. The results do not show differences in the understanding of information among the three formats, so the three evaluated formats are equivalent to inform the frequency of adverse reactions. However, poor understanding of the results indicated shows that alternative formats must to be evaluated. Taking into account that numerical formats are more effective than numerical ones, and that graphical formats can assist in understanding information on adverse reactions, an alternative format for reporting adverse drug-related reactions needs to be developed from needs of medicine users. It is necessary to consider the preferences, level of literacy in health and numerical abilities of the users of medicines.

Повний текст джерелаDeep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a well-established treatment for medically refractory motor symptoms of patients with advanced Parkinson\'s disease. Programming of the device is as relevant to patient outcome as accurate implantation of the electrodes. The first step of DBS programming is to identify the thresholds to side effects. However, the relationship between lead location and the threshold to adverse effects is not fully understood. Anatomical measurements and electrode location were evaluated on a stereotactic surgical planning software, whereas stimulation parameters and side effects were obtained from medical records. Correlations among these variables were tested using univariate and multivariable analyses. Monopolar stimulation elicited capsular side effects (CSEs) in 208 of 316 contacts (65.8%) and noncapsular side effects (NCSEs) in 223 of 316 contacts (70.6%). The occurrence of CSEs was correlated with contact number (p = 0,009) and with the \"Z\" coordinate (p = 0,03), whereas voltage threshold to CSEs exhibited correlation with the internal capsule angle (p = 0,035). The occurrence of NCSEs was correlated with contact number (p = 0,005), \"X\" (p = 0,03), \"Y\" (p = 0,004), and the distance to the red nucleus (p = 0,001 and p = 0,003). There was correlation between voltage threshold to NCSEs and the internal capsule angle (p = 0,006), electrode\'s coronal angle (p = 0,02), \"X\" (p = 0,001), \"Y\" (p < 0,001), \"Z\" (p < 0,001), and the distances to the internal capsule (p = 0,02) and to the red nucleus (p = 0,004 and p < 0,001). CSEs were associated with more distally contacts, with deeper localization, as well as with greater internal capsule angles. NCSEs were associated with more distally contacts, with localization more medial, posterior and inferior, and closer to the red nucleus. Moreover, there was a correlation between NCSEs and electrodes implanted with greater coronal angles, as well as with greater internal capsule angles. These findings can be useful to inform novel targeting strategies for deep brain stimulation lead implantation.

Повний текст джерелаContinuous levodopa/carbidopa intestinal gel is reported to be efficient in the treatment of advanced Parkinson Disease but also associated with adverse events. The aim of this study was to provide an overview of the reported adverse events through a systematic review. The databases PubMed, Cochrane, Cinahl and Embase were searched. The results are based on 12 observational studies and one randomized control trial and shows that adverse events are common and the degree varies. Four categories to which the adverse events can be related were identified; due to the surgery, the device, the medication or not related to the treatment at all. Conclusions: The evidence is considered inadequate to base a statement of how the adverse events are correlated to the treatment why further studies with evaluation of baseline and socioeconomic variables as well as among the different adverse events are recommended.

Повний текст джерелаSyftet är att beskriva symtom och biverkningar som kvinnor med avancerad bröstcancer och cytostatikabehandling rapporterat i ett datoriserat rapporteringssystem före läkarbesök. Undersöka tillfredsställelsen med detta system; se om det finns en skillnad mellan äldre och yngre; undersöka kvinnornas uppfattning om vad som kan förbättras i uppföljningen av symtom/biverkningar samt stödet från läkare. Detta är en kvantitativ, deskriptiv tvärsnittsstudie baserat på rapporteringssystemets databas samt enkätundersökning.
Biverkningarna trötthet, smärta och nervpåverkan rapporterades mest frekvent. Tidsåtgången för rapportering ansågs utav de flesta vara kort eller mycket kort och formuläret upplevdes av majoriteten vara ganska lätt till mycket lätt att använda oberoende av datorvana. Läkaren ansågs från hög grad till mycket hög grad vara ett stöd i att hantera symtom och biverkningar av två tredjedelar av respondenterna. Hälften ansåg att rapporterade biverkningar och symtom uppmärksammades av läkaren i hög grad till mycket hög grad.
Undersökningen bekräftar det tidigare forskning visat om datoriserade rapporteringssystem i vården, att de är funktionella oavsett ålder samt att intresse finns för att använda dessa i större utsträckning. På grund av litet urval och relativt stort bortfall i enkätstudien kan dock inga direkta slutsatser dras men undersökningen antyder att behov finns att vidareutveckla rapporteringssystemet.
The aim of the study is to describe symptoms and side effects that women with advanced breast cancer and chemotherapy reported in an adverse drug reporting system before seeing their oncologist; examine the satisfaction with this system; if there are any differences between older and younger women; the women’s opinion of what improvements could be done in the follow-up of the symptoms/side effects and the support from the oncologist. This is a quantitative, descriptive cross-sectional study based on the database of the adverse drug reporting system and the questionnaire survey.
The side effects fatigue, pain and peripheral neuropathy were most frequently reported. The time consumption for reporting was considered short or very short and the majority thought that the questionnaire was fairly easy to very easy to use independent of computer habits. The oncologists where considered from a high extent to a very high extent being a support in handling the symptoms/side effects by two thirds of the respondents. Two fourths felt that the oncologists attended reported symptoms/side effects from a high extent to a very high extent.
Because of a small sample and a relatively large drop-out no real conclusions can be drawn except the need for further development of the system.

Повний текст джерелаAntimalarial agents, chloroquine and hydroxichloroquine, have been used for decades leading to good therapeutic outcomes at treatment approach for lupus erythematosus and are considered safe medication; however, the main concern is retina toxicity, especially with chloroquine. The purpose of the present study was to conduct analysis of the occurrence of adverse effects, triggered by use of 250 mg/d of chloroquine diphosphate at treatment for lupus erythematosus, especially retina toxicity. We analyzed 350 patients and reviewed their medical charts, from 1980 to 2003. The patients were followed up by the outpatient unit of collagenosis, Division of Dermatology, Hospital das Clinicas, Medical School, University of São Paulo. The occurrence of adverse effects was 35.7%, and eye affections were detected in 17.4% of patients. Impairment of retina pigmentation suggestive of antimalarial retinopathy occurred in 12%, cornea deposits in 3,1%, and acute visual symptoms in 2.3%. Gastrointestinal affections were detected in 10% of patients: epigastralgia (6%), nausea and vomiting (3.7%) and diarrhea (0.3%). Dermatological affections occurred in 3.4% of patients: skin rash in the beginning of treatment (2%), exacerbation of preexisting psoriasis (0.3%) and skin pigmentation (1.1%). We also detected headache (2.9%), neuromuscular disorders (1.7%) with flu-like episode at the beginning of treatment (1,1%), sensitive neuropathy (0,3%) and myopathy compatible with myasthenia (0.3%) and neuropsychiatric symptoms (0.3%). Discontinuation of drugs owing to side effects occurred in 22.9% of the patients, being that the main affections were eye, gastrointestinal and dermatological occurrences. Ophthalmologic reevaluation of retina pigmentation affections occurred in 12% of the patients, but we confirmed antimalarial retinopathy only in 2.6%, detecting a tendency to value nonspecific, discreet and unilateral affections, which generated unnecessary recommendations for discontinuation of drug in 9.4% of the patients. There were no cases of advanced retinopathy with bull-eye type lesion. There was no statistically significant association between occurrence of adverse effects and retina affections with daily dose per kg of chloroquine diphosphate and the differents types of lupus erythematosus. In patients over the age of 50, there was statistically significant increase in number of retina affections when compared to the group aged below 50 years, possibly owing to difficulty to differentiate between initial affections in antimalarial retinopathy from those resultant from senile macular degeneration. Ophthalmologic control was conducted on average after 10.5 months, showing that annual follow-up was effective to keep track of patients. Nine of the patients were exposed during the first gestational trimester and there were no cases of fetal malformations

Повний текст джерелаINTRODUCTION: Sympathectomy is the treatment of choice for primary and localized hyperhidrosis. Efforts in evolution of this technique have the aim to improve the surgical results and minimizing the collateral effects, witch told to be the sudomotor reflex. This sudomotor reflex could influence the long term satisfaction; it also could change between the seasons of the year, as well as the satisfaction could change in this matter. However, there is no objective data regarding the influence of the seasonality over the surgical results and satisfaction. The objectives of this study is to assess the seasonal variability of palmar and plantar resolution, as well as the incidence of sudomotor reflex and its intensity; to correlate this factors with satisfaction. To evaluate the pain as a factor related to immediate satisfaction; to assess the safety of lung expansion methods and relate this with postoperative pain. METHODS: A two stage prospective clinical assay. The first stage consists of assessment of the immediate factors related to satisfaction (anthropometrics factors, pain, presence and intensity of the sudomotor reflex, palmar and plantar resolutions, season of the year in witch the operation was performed) and the safety of lung expansion methods; it is a prospective, randomized and blinded study. The second stage is a cohort study, assessing the late factors related to satisfaction (anthropometrics factors, presence and intensity of the sudomotor reflex and palmar and plantar resolutions), under distinct climatic situations. There were included patients with typical palmar and plantar primary hyperhidrosis treated by thoracic video-assisted sympathectomy; the inclusion period was 16 months and the final follow-up time was 623 ± 15,13 days in average. They were assessed in hospital stay (pain, lung expansion technique and residual pneumothorax) and at seventh postoperative day (pain, surgical results and satisfaction). Thereafter they were assessed in spring, summer and autumn/winter (surgical results and satisfaction). The surgical results were palmar and plantar resolutions and presence and intensity of the sudomotor reflex. The independent variables related to satisfaction were season of the year in that the sympathectomy was performed, pain, palmar and plantar resolutions, sudomotor reflex (presence and intensity) and anthropometric parameters (age, gender, ethnics, body mass index). RE8UL T8: 82 consecutives patients were included; thereafter, 80 completed the immediate assess and 75 completed the long term follow-up. The surgical results (palmar and plantar resolutions, presence and intensity of the sudomotor reflex) had significant variation throughout the seasons of the year. Equally, the satisfaction had significant variation, as well as the factor related to dissatisfaction, throughout the seasons of the year. The underwater pleural drainage and the lung expansion with Valsalva maneuver were equally efficient in matter of residual pneumothorax; however the underwater pleural drainage was more painful and more operating time consuming; the residual pneumothorax do not increased the postoperative pain. CONCLUSIONS: The best results are obtained in immediate postoperative period and in spring; the worst results are seen in spring; the intermediate results are obtained in autumn/winter. In the spring, the unique factor related to dissatisfaction was the non resolution of plantar hyperhidrotic symptoms; in the summer and in the autumn/winter the presence of the sudomotor reflex, independently of its intensity, was related to dissatisfaction.

Повний текст джерелаAvhandlingen utforskar advertorials, reklam kommer att se ut som redaktionellt innehåll, från en konsument beteende perspektiv. Introduktion Konsumenter exponeras dagligen för oerhörda mängder reklam. Detta gör det svårt för marknadsförare att nå konsumenten. Sedan slutet av 1980-talet har vissa marknadsförare därmed börjat använda okonventionella metoder för reklam. En av dessa är användandet av ”dolda annonser”, en form av reklam som lånar utseende och andra funktioner för att smälta in med redaktionellt material i tidningar, på webbsidor och så vidare. Problemdiskussion Eftersom ”dolda annonser” är gjorda för att likna redaktionellt material, men i själva verket är en annonser är det av intresse för både forskare och praktiserande marknadsförare att veta effekterna användandet har på deltagande företags varumärken. Tidigare forskning skiljer sig i synen på dessa ”dolda annonser”, vissa hävdar att det är ett bra sätt att göra reklam, eftersom det ses som mindre påträngande och irriterande, medan andra säger att dess vilseledande natur faktiskt gör människor uppretade. Syfte Genom en kvantitativ fallstudie av Aftonbladet.se, en svensk nyhets-site, från ett konsumentperspektiv analysera effekterna på 1) varumärket trovärdighet, och 2) irritationsnivån, både på annonsorganet och annonsören, när ”dolda annonser” smälter in mer med redaktionellt innehåll. Dessutom, 3) att därefter undersöka om eventuella ändringar i irritation och varumärkestrovärdighet leder till förändringar i attityd mot annonsorganet och annonsören. Bakgrund Tidningar har länge varit beroende av intäkterna från annonsförsäljning. I takt med att framväxten av gratistidningar och nyhets-siter har försvårat marknaden har ”dolda annonser” blivit en allt viktigare inkomstkälla. I den elektroniska världen, där läsare kan hoppa från artikel till artikel och från plats till plats, spelar ”dolda annonser” en viktig roll i att fånga läsaren. Referensram Online-kontextet ger större möjligheter att vilseleda konsumenten i jämförelse med tryckta medier. Därför är den teoretiska tungdpunkten lagd på tidigare forskning om effekterna vilseledande marknadsföring kan ha på en konsuments uppfattning av deltagande varumärken vad gäller irritationsnivå, varumärkestrovärdighet, attityd, sannolikhet att återvända till webbplats, samt reklamundvikande. Ur tidigare forskning konstruerades 11 hypoteser för senare prövning. Metod Studien använder en blandad metodstrategi, med både kvantitativa och kvalitativa data. Ett experiment med en kontrollgrupp och två olika manipulationer låg till grund för insamlingen av uppgifter. 19 av de 103 deltagarna i den kvantitativa delen ombads att delta i den kvalitativa studien med. Analys Eftersom fördelningen inte var helt normalt distribuerad användes Kruskal-Wallis test för att testa hypoteserna. Resultatet var att alla hypoteser utom en godkändes. Relationen mellan variabler undersöktes också genom hierarkisk multipel regressionsanalys. Slutsats Det var inte möjligt att bevisa att annonser som smälter in mer leder till minskad trovärdighet för någon av de båda varumärkena, och inte heller lockar fram mer irritation. Det var inte heller möjligt att urskilja en statistiskt signifikant effekt på attityd gentemot varumärken, sannolikheten att återvända till Aftonbladet.se, eller framtida undvikande av annonser av Volvo. Dock uttryckte flera av deltagarna i intervjuerna oro över de långsiktiga effekterna användning av ”dolda annonser” kan ha på varumärket Volvo. Vidare är definitivt annonserna mycket vilseledande, och nära hälften insåg inte de läste en annons även på nivån som används av Aftonbladet.se och Volvo idag.

Docetaxel (TaxotereR) is usually applied in routine chemotherapy. However, the most common side effects of Docetaxel is myelosuppression, include neutropenia and anemia. Fungal Immunomodulatory Proteins of Flammulina velutipes and Ganoderma tsugaeare were called FIP-fve and FIP-gts, respectively. In previous study, both FIP-fve and FIP-gts have immunomodulatory and anti-cancer ability. This study is aimed to investigate the protective function of FIP-fve and FIP-gts on docetaxel-induced adverse side effects. In animal model, complete blood count (Control v Docetaxel) reveals neutropenia (WBC:6.29 ± 1.19 × 103/μL v 3.40 ± 0.74 × 103/μL) and anemia (RBC:9.19 ± 0.52 × 106/μL v 8.06 ± 0.43 × 106/μL). Moreover, FIP-gts but not FIP-fve can reverse docetaxel-induced neutropenia (Docetaxel v Docetaxel combined with FIP-gts,3.40 ± 0.74 × 103/μL v 5.81 ± 1.64 × 103/μL). As compared to Control group (570.38 ± 68.66 μm), histological sections of intestine shows that villous length was decrease in Docetaxel group (365.85 ± 19.21 μm), Docetaxel combined with FIP-fve (474.65 ± 6.8 μm) and Docetaxel combined with FIP-fve (506.60 ± 17.87 μm)), respectively. Consequences, FIP-fve and FIP-gts significantly decreased docetaxel-induced intestine damage. Moreover, numbers of adipocyte (% of control) was significantly increased in Docetaxel group (275.27 ± 45.31%) as compared to Control group (100 ± 22.04%) in bone marrow. FIP-fve (154.84 ± 22.35%) and FIP-gts (138.71 ± 12.35%) can decrease docetaxel-induced adipocyte in bone marrow. Quantification of trabecular bone (Control v Docetaxel) percent bone volume (21.82 ± 1.10% v 11.35 ± 3.32%), trabecular number (3.12 ± 0.26 mm-1 v 1.66 ± 0.45 mm-1), bone surface density (12.20 ± 0.99 mm-1 v 6.82 ± 1.67 mm-1), and trabecular separation (0.21 ± 0.02 mm v 0.379 ± 0.109 mm) analyzed by on 3D micro-CT analysis. This is reason that Docetaxel induced bone damage and increase osteoporosis risk. Moreover FIP-fve and FIP-gts significantly reversed docetaxel-decreased percent bone volume, trabecular number and bone surface density. On the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), total plasma G-CSF concentration was significantly increased in Docetaxel + FIP-gts group (145.14 ± 76.74 ρg/mL) as compared to Docetaxel group (72.88 ± 39.19 ρg/mL). Both of FIP-fve and FIP-gts can stimulate G-CSF mRNA expression in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMCs) by RT-PCR and inhibit A549 cell survival by MTT assay. Both of FIP-fve and FIP-gts reduce the mRNA expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), which promotes lung cancer-induced bone resorptive lesions in A549 lung cancer cells by RT-PCR and ELISA. This is the first study to reveal the novel function of FIP-fve and FIP-gts in mitigating docetaxel-induced adverse side effects. Therefore, we suggest that FIP-fve and FIP-gts may be potential adjuvants of docetaxel.
