    Journal of Pharmaceutical Health Care and Sciences, 12 Jul. 2024, [Reviewed]
    Abstract

    Background

    Perioperative management of patients on dialysis is critical for controlling bleeding and thrombotic risk, in addition to infection control. Postoperative anticoagulation is often difficult to control, and different institutions have different policies. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate factors associated with postoperative bleeding events and whether warfarin (WF) therapy affects the incidence of postoperative bleeding events, total mortality, and stroke.

    Methods

    Patients who were admitted to the cardiovascular surgery department and underwent valve replacement or plasty were included, and those who underwent mechanical valve introduction were excluded. Thirty-nine patients were included in the study. The primary endpoint was to identify factors associated with the composite endpoint of postoperative bleeding events, and the secondary endpoint was to determine the effect size of WF therapy on postoperative bleeding events, all-cause mortality, and stroke and the strength of association between the crossed endpoints. The strength of the association between the crossed items was examined.

    Results

    Low body weight (p = 0.038) was identified as a factor associated with the primary endpoint of postoperative bleeding events. The secondary endpoint of whether or not patients received WF therapy was largely unrelated to bleeding events, all-cause mortality, and postoperative stroke up to 90 days after surgery.

    Conclusions

    Preliminary studies suggest that low body weight is a risk factor for postoperative bleeding events in patients on dialysis, although further exploration of other factors will be necessary with the accumulation of similar cases.

    BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cortical hyperexcitability has been identified as a diagnostic and pathogenic biomarker of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Cortical excitability is assessed by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive neurophysiological technique. The TMS biomarkers exhibiting highest sensitivity for cortical hyperexcitability in ALS remain to be elucidated. A meta-analysis was performed to determine the TMS biomarkers exhibiting the highest sensitivity for cortical hyperexcitability in ALS. METHODS: A systematic literature review was conducted of all relevant studies published in the English language by searching PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase and Scopus electronic databases from 1 January 2006 to 28 February 2023. Inclusion criteria included studies reporting the utility of threshold tracking TMS (serial ascending method) in ALS and controls. RESULTS: In total, more than 2500 participants, incorporating 1530 ALS patients and 1102 controls (healthy, 907; neuromuscular, 195) were assessed with threshold tracking TMS across 25 studies. Significant reduction of mean short interval intracortical inhibition (interstimulus interval 1-7 ms) exhibited the highest standardized mean difference with moderate heterogeneity (-0.994, 95% confidence interval -1.12 to -0.873, p < 0.001; Q = 38.61, p < 0.05; I2  = 40%). The reduction of cortical silent period duration along with an increase in motor evoked potential amplitude and intracortical facilitation also exhibited significant, albeit smaller, standardized mean differences. CONCLUSION: This large meta-analysis study disclosed that mean short interval intracortical inhibition reduction exhibited the highest sensitivity for cortical hyperexcitability in ALS. Combined findings from this meta-analysis suggest that research strategies aimed at understanding the cause of inhibitory interneuronal circuit dysfunction could enhance understanding of ALS pathogenesis.

    Journal of the American Medical Directors Association, 28 Feb. 2024, [Reviewed]
    OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to examine the impact of prefracture cognitive impairment (CI) severity and postoperative delirium on recovery after hip fracture surgery in older patients. DESIGN: Prospective study with a 1-year follow-up. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: We included 355 patients aged ≥80 years from 2 acute hospitals in Japan. METHODS: Barthel Index (BI) ambulation scores were assessed prefracture and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. The score at each time point minus the prefracture score was used as the ambulation recovery variable. The 21-item Dementia Assessment Sheet for the Community-based Care System (DASC-21) and Confusion Assessment Method were used to assess CI severity and delirium, respectively. The impacts of CI severity and delirium on recovery at 1 month and by 12 months postoperatively were examined. Linear multiple regression and linear mixed effects models were used. RESULTS: BI ambulation scores remained the same or improved from prefracture levels in 26.8%, 34.4%, 33.0%, and 30.4% of patients at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. Ten patients (2.8%) had fall-related hip fractures, 20 (5.6%) were rehospitalized, and 43 (12.1%) died during this period. Although DASC-21 CI severity significantly affected the recovery both at 1 month and by 12 months postoperatively [standardized β (Stdβ) = -0.39, P < .0001, and Stdβ = -0.37, P < .0001, respectively], delirium did not. Other variables affecting recovery by 12 months postoperatively included prefracture BI ambulation scores, Mini Mental State Examination scores, age, fracture type, place of residence, and time. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Postoperative ambulation recovery, excluding the effect of death and other poor outcomes, is influenced by prefracture CI severity, and the presence of delirium itself may not be the moderating variable. These results emphasize the importance of treatment planning based on prefracture CI severity and indicate that assessments such as the DASC-21 may be useful in implementing such a plan.

    Abstract

    Context

    Although adding spironolactone to renin-angiotensin system blockers reduces albuminuria in adults with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes, it increases the risk of hyperkalemia.

    Objective

    To assess whether a lower dose of spironolactone (12.5 mg/d) reduces the risk of hyperkalemia while maintaining its effect on reducing albuminemia.

    Design

    Multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial.

    Setting

    This study was conducted from July 2016 to November 2020 in ambulatory care at 3 diabetes medical institutions in Japan.

    Patients

    We enrolled 130 Japanese adults with type 2 diabetes and albuminuria (≥30 mg/gCre), estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥30 mL/min/1.73 m2, and serum potassium level &lt;5.0 mEq/L.

    Interventions

    The participants were randomly assigned to the spironolactone-administered and control groups.

    Main outcome measures

    Changes in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) from baseline over the 24-week interventional period.

    Results

    The spironolactone group showed a significant reduction in UACR from baseline (mean decrease, 103.47 ± 340.80 mg/gCre) compared with the control group, which showed an increased UACR (mean increase, 63.93 ± 310.14 mg/gCre; P = .0007, Wilcoxon rank-sum test and t test). Although the spironolactone group had a statistically significant increase in serum potassium levels, none of the participants had a potassium level ≥5.5 mEq/L at 24 weeks. Further, participants with a higher initial serum potassium level tended to have a smaller increase (estimate, −0.37, analysis of covariance).

    Conclusions

    Low-dose spironolactone administration reduced albuminuria without causing hyperkalemia. Spironolactone administration, the oldest known and most cost-effective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, at lower doses should be reconsidered.

    BACKGROUND: Consolidation tumor ratio (CTR) calculated as the ratio of the tumor consolidation diameter to the tumor maximum diameter on thin-section computed tomography (CT) of lung cancer has been reported as an important prognostic factor. It has also been used for treatment decision-making. This study aimed to investigate the interobserver variability of CTR measurements on preoperative CT and propose a clinically useful CTR-based classification criterion. METHODS: We enrolled 119 patients who underwent surgery for suspected or diagnosed small-sized lung cancer (≤3.0 cm in diameter). Nine doctors reviewed preoperative CT scans to measure CTR. Interobserver variability of CTR measurements was evaluated using the coefficient of variation (CV) and Fleiss' κ. The prognostic effect of the CTR-based classification was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: Interobserver variability of CTR measurement was the highest for tumors with the lowest CTR (CTR = 0); it decreased as CTR increased and reached a plateaued level of low variability (CV <0.5) at CTR of 0.5. We proposed a three-group classification based on the findings of CTR interobserver variability (CTR < 0.5, 0.5 ≤ CTR < 1, and CTR = 1). Interobserver agreement of the judgment of the CTR-based classification was excellent (Fleiss' κ = 0.81). The classification significantly stratified patient prognosis (p < 0.001, 5-year overall survival rates with CTR < 0.5, 0.5 ≤ CTR < 1, and CTR = 1 were 100, 88, and 73.8%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: CTR 0.5 is a clinically relevant and helpful cutoff for treatment decision-making in patients with early-stage lung cancer based on high interobserver agreement and good prognostic stratification.

    Background: Dialysis patients are predisposed to severe disease and have a high mortality rate in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to their comorbidities and immunocompromised conditions. Therefore, dialysis patients should be prioritized for vaccination. This study aimed to examine how long the effects of the vaccine are maintained and what factors affect antibody titers. Methods: Hemodialysis patients (HD group) and age- and sex-matched non-dialysis individuals (Control group), receiving two doses of BNT162b2 vaccine, were recruited through the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy (JSDT) Web site in July 2021. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin (IgG) (SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers) was measured before vaccination, 3 weeks after the first vaccination, 2 weeks after the second vaccination, and 3 months after the second vaccination, and was compared between Control group and HD group. Factors affecting SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers were also examined using multivariable regression analysis and stepwise regression analysis (least AIC). In addition, we compared adverse reactions in Control and HD groups and examined the relationship between adverse reactions and SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers. Results: Our study enrolled 123 participants in the Control group (62.6% men, median age 67.0 years) and 206 patients in the HD group (64.1% men, median age 66.4 years). HD group had significantly lower SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers at 3 weeks after the first vaccination (p < 0.0001), 2 weeks after second vaccination (p = 0.0002), and 3 months after the second vaccination (p = 0.045) than Control group. However, the reduction rate of SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers between 2 weeks and 3 months after the second vaccination was significantly smaller in HD group than in Control (p = 0.048). Stepwise regression analysis revealed that dialysis time was identified as the significant independent factors for SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers at 2 weeks after the second vaccination in HD group (p = 0.002) and longer dialysis time resulted in higher maximum antibody titers. The incidences of fever and nausea after the second vaccination were significantly higher in the HD group (p = 0.039 and p = 0.020). Antibody titers in those with fever were significantly higher than those without fever in both groups (HD: p = 0.0383, Control: p = 0.0096). Conclusion: HD patients had significantly lower antibody titers than age- and sex-matched non-dialysis individuals over 3 months after vaccination. Dialysis time was identified as a factor affecting SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers in HD group, with longer dialysis time resulting in higher maximum SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers.

    BACKGROUND: The mortality rate of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is extremely high in hemodialysis patients (HDP). These patients also develop lower antibody titers after vaccination. Therefore, factors associated with antibody titers and vaccine efficacy in HDP with breakthrough infection need to be investigated. METHODS: We measured anti-S1 antibody titers in HDP (n = 104) and controls (n = 35), evaluating the influence of background on HDP by multivariable regression analysis. We classified 26 HDP patients admitted with COVID-19 into the unvaccinated (n = 15) and breakthrough infection group (n = 11), performing between-group comparisons of laboratory findings and prognosis. Vaccinated COVID-19 patients were classified into HDP and non-HDP controls, and compared the relationship between antibody titer and severity, and the prognosis of breakthrough infection. RESULTS: The antibody titer was significantly lower in the HDP group than in the control group. Among HDP, age and smoking history were significantly independent factors associated with antibody titer. The breakthrough infection group had significantly better laboratory findings (KL-6 and LDH), severity, and hospitalization period than the unvaccinated group even if antibody titers were lower than the known threshold for neutralization (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in prognosis between the HDP and non-HDP with breakthrough infection. Severity of COVID-19 tended to be higher with lower antibody titer in non-HDP, but not in HDP. CONCLUSION: Vaccines improved the severity of COVID-19 and hospitalization period of breakthrough infection in HDP, although HDP, especially in elderly smokers had lower antibody titers than control. There was no significant association between antibody titer and severity in HDP.

    Antimicrobial resistance is a major health concern. A primary cause is the inappropriate use of antimicrobials, particularly by patients with upper respiratory tract infection. However, baseline information for antibiotic use for common cold before being applied the National Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance in Japan is lacking. Here, we analyzed the inappropriate use of antibiotics in the working-age workers. We used large claims data from an annual health check-up for at least 5 consecutive years. Among 201,223 participants, we included 18,659 working-age workers who were diagnosed with common cold at a clinic/hospital. We calculated the proportion of patients with common cold who were prescribed antibiotics and analyzed predictive factors associated with antibiotics prescription. Antibiotics were prescribed to 49.2% (n = 9180) of patients diagnosed with common cold. In the logistic regression analysis, the group taking antibiotics was predominantly younger, male, without chronic diseases, and diagnosed at a small hospital/clinic (where the number of beds was 0-19). Cephems accounted for the highest proportion of prescribed antibiotics, with 40-45% of patients being prescribed antibiotics. Our data may be applied to prioritize resources such as medical staff-intervention or education of working-age people without chronic diseases who visit clinics for common cold to avoid the potential inappropriate use of antibiotics and prevent antimicrobial resistance acceleration.

    [Purpose] The aims of this study were 1) to examine the convergent validity between Lactate pro 2 and a standard JCA-BM 8000 automatic analyzer using salivary lactate and 2) to investigate the relationship between blood and salivary lactate levels after a vertical squat jump. [Participants and Methods] Healthy non-athletes participated in this observational study. The participants performed a vertical squat jump for 1 min 30 s. Blood and salivary lactate levels were measured before and after exercise using Lactate Pro 2. [Results] The intraclass correlation coefficient between Lactate Pro 2 and the JCA-BM 8000 automatic analyzer was 0.773, which can be considered as substantial convergent validity. However, in some samples, the salivary lactate level was out of the measurable range, and numerical values could not be obtained. The cross-correlation function between the blood and salivary lactate levels was 0.535 at lag 0 and 0.750 at lag 1, which indicated a 5-min lag between the salivary and blood lactate values. [Conclusion] Salivary lactate levels can be easily measured using Lactate Pro 2, although its sensitivity needs to be resolved. Further research is required for salivary lactate level, which can be collected non-invasively, to be used as an alternative parameter to blood lactate level.

  • The Competitive Advantage of the Vertically Integrated Business Model in Generic Drug Industry:Focusing on Private Brand Product Strategies
    Hirosaki Shin; Koinuma Masayoshi; Akase Tomohide
    Annals of the Society for Industrial Studies, Japan, 2020, [Reviewed]
    In recent years, the generics market in Japan has reached a turbulent period. Due to government policy, the volume share of generics is increasing rapidly. On the other hand, generic companies could not profit more than before because of the reduction in generic prices. As a result, the generic business in many new entrants, mainly innovative pharmaceutical companies, was transferred to a vertically integrated company run by pharmaceutical wholesalers and pharmacies in 2010s. Generic names in Japan have resembled those of private brands( PBs) such as foodstuffs. In this paper, we conducted a survey analysis of the advantages of a group of vertically integrated companies sell generics as PBs, mainly by NIHON CHOUZAI Co. Ltd., in comparison with previous studies in other industries.
    First, a vertically integrated business model in which both manufacturers and pharmacies are within the group can maintain sales prices and conduct sales activities with a minimum number of MRs. This suggests that sales management costs can be reduced.
    On the other hand, the brands of these generics were derived from the company name, not the pharmacy name. Furthermore, these companies could not acquire the store brand because they also deal with brands of many trading competitors. There were no cases in which generics sold by a vertically integrated company had unique added value in accordance with the needs of the patients or pharmacists. The reason these companies take such a strategy is that pharmacies, rather than patients, have the choice of generics brand. And since the pharmacy has the brand selection right, the pharmacy can immediately switch from innovative medicine to PB generics according to the pharmacy’s intention. These suggest that PB generics are efficient and effective business compared to PB businesses in other industries.

    [Purpose] To investigate the effect of night splints on the standing motor function and ankle dorsiflexion angles of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). [Subjects and Methods] Nine boys (age <11 years) with DMD were divided into the sufficiently-wearing group and the insufficiently-wearing group, according to how often they wore their splint for one year. We evaluated the changes between the pre-implementation and the one-year-after assessments of both the sufficiently-wearing group and the insufficiently-wearing group for the ankle dorsiflexion angle, North Star Ambulatory Assessment, 10-m running time, and time to stand from the floor. [Results] Only the left dorsiflexion angle of the ankle showed significantly difference for the sufficiently-wearing group. For other indicators, there were tendency toward improvement and maintenance in the sufficiently-wearing group. [Conclusion] The standing motor function improved significantly in some patients in the sufficiently-wearing group, suggesting that wearing night splints may promote the improvement and/or maintain of standing motor function in patients with DMD.

    We investigated the way that health foods (including those for specified health uses) are sold at pharmacies, awareness of interactions and the extent of information gathering when health foods are dispensed together with prescription drugs. To obtain data for our study, we sent a questionnaire by mail to 176 pharmacies belonging to the Chiba Pharmaceutical Association. The questionnaire asked for background information on pharmacies, and about how health foods are sold, the information given on them, awareness of interactions, information gathering methods and status of interactions in the case that health foods are dispensed together with prescription drugs.<BR>We next analyzed the results for a relationship between the dispensing status and methods of gathering information on interactions in the case of concomitant use of health foods and pharmaceutical products. In doing this, we investigated the independence among groups using the Wilcoxon rank sum test, specifying the average numbers of prescriptions dispensed per day and share of prescription drug sales as dependent variables, and whether or not information on interactions was sought using the internet or by making inquiries to pharmaceutical companies as explanatory variables.<BR>We received completed questionnaires from 77 pharmacies (response rate 43.7%). Based on their responses, the average monthly number of prescriptions per pharmacy was 1, 738.9, dispensing accounted for 68% of sales, and the average man-hours per day was 26.1 hours. The rate for conducting checks concerning health foods at the time of dispensing was 53.2 %. As for the average number of prescriptions handled per day, we concluded that more inquiries were made to pharmaceutical companies as the number of prescriptions handled increased since there was a significant difference between the with and without inquiries to pharmaceutical companies groups (p=0.0037).

    The validity of measuring salivary lactate(SLA)with a simple device and the relationship between salivary lactate and blood lactate(BLA)were tested. The results showed that the ICC (2,1) for each subject between the Lactate Pro 2 and the autoanalyzer in the device test was 0.568-0.763, with an overall ICC of 0.773 (95% confidence interval: 0.678 to 0.844, p < 0.01). For the relationship between the two, the cross-correlation coefficient was 0.535 for lag 0 and 0.750 for lag 1, indicating that SLA lagged behind BLA by one measurement minute (5 minutes). It was verified that the use of the existing simple device was reasonable and that the trends for blood and saliva were similar to previous studies.
  • Do drug-administration-assisting devices used by pharmacists improve patients' QOL?

    01 Apr. 2014 - 31 Mar. 2017
    People receiving pharmacotherapy encounter difficulties associated with various drugs at the time of their administration. In particular, patients receiving pen-type insulin injections are more likely to encounter difficulties because they usually administer these injections by themselves. Therefore, various drug-administration-assisting devices are commercially available and provided by pharmaceutical companies. However, the convenience of drug administration remains insufficiently improved. The reason for the unresolved issues regarding drug administration is that individual approaches (e.g., changing the shape of administration devices) have not been adopted according to the finger shape of patients or how they apply force to such devices. Against this background, we investigated methods to develop individually-tailored assisting devices, as well as strategies to provide these devices through pharmacies.
