Early and late complications of pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy in Japan 1998.

Early (within 1 month after operation) and late (more than 1 month after surgery) complications after pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenecto … ric juice output (P = 0.0001), length of gastric tube placement (P < 0.0001), and administration of cisapride (P = 0.0059) were significant variants. As late complications, stomal ulcer was evident in 3.6% of patients, cholangitis in 6.7%, and liver abscess in 1.2%. Glucose intolerance appeared in 61 patients, resolved in 15, showed no change in 170, was ab …

Hemodynamic and electrophysiological effects of mitemcinal (GM-611), a novel prokinetic agent derived from erythromycin in a halothane-anesthetized canine model.

Mitemcinal (GM-611) is a novel erythromycin-derived prokinetic agent that acts as an agonist at the motilin receptor. We investigated the QT-prolonging effects of mitemcinal using a halothane-anesthetized canine model. Intravenous administration of mitemcinal at doses of more than 8.3 mg/kg per 10 min significantly prolonged the QT interval corrected by Fridericia's corrections. Mitemcinal exhibited a bradycardiac effect and produced significantly greater prolongation in monophasic action potential duration (MAP(90)) at sinus rhythm compared with MAP(90) at pacing and showed reverse use-depend

Evaluation of the guinea pig monophasic action potential (MAP) assay in predicting drug-induced delay of ventricular repolarisation using 12 clinically documented drugs.

INTRODUCTION: While the dog in vivo model is commonly employed in the later phase of discovery for assessing drug-induced QT prolongation, an early screening assay is valuable when selecting compounds for further development and when compound availability usually is low. One such screening assay is the anaesthetised guinea pig monophasic action potential (MAP) model. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the ability of this model to detect proarrhythmic properties by testing a set of reference compounds with known clinical profile. Moreover, these results were compared to data previousl

Lansoprazole: an update of its place in the management of acid-related disorders.

Lansoprazole is an inhibitor of gastric acid secretion and also exhibits antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori in vitro. Curren … prazole 15, 30 or 60 mg/day was significantly more effective than placebo, ranitidine 300 mg/day or cisapride 40 mg/day and similar in efficacy to pantoprazole 40 mg/day in terms of healing of oesophagitis. Lansoprazole 30 mg/day, omeprazole 20 mg/day and pantoprazole 40 mg/day all provided similar symptom relief in these patients. In patients with healed o …

[Duodenogastric and gastroesophageal bile reflux].

This study reviews current data regarding duodenogastric and gastroesophageal bile reflux-pathophysiology, clinical presentation, methods of diagnosis (namely, 24-hour intraluminal bile monitoring) and therapeutic management. Duodenogastric reflux (DGR) consists of retrograde passage of alkaline duodenal contents into the stomach; it may occur due to antroduodenal motility disorder (primary DGR) or may arise following surgical alteration of gastoduodenal anatomy or because of biliary pathology (secondary DGR). Pathologic DGR may generate symptoms of epigastric pain, nausea, and bilious vomitin

The impact of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act on the recruitment of children for research.

This article argues that contrary to the claims made by research stakeholders in industry, academia and government, the shift in public policy since the enactment of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act (FDAMA) of 1997 and its financial incentives to industry to test drugs on children, has had a deleterious impact on children's dignity, health and welfare. Those lucrative incentives offered an opportunity to accelerate the pace of FDA approval for pediatric drug marketing. FDAMA resulted in a radical shift in federal policy to accommodate an expansion of pediatric trials. Childre

Drug screening using a library of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes reveals disease-specific patterns of cardiotoxicity.

BACKGROUND: Cardiotoxicity is a leading cause for drug attrition during pharmaceutical development and has resulted in numerous preventable patient deaths. Incidents of adverse cardiac drug reactions are more common in patients with preexisting heart disease than the general population. Here we generated a library of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) from patients with various hereditary cardiac disorders to model differences in cardiac drug toxicity susceptibility for patients of different genetic backgrounds. METHODS AND RESULTS: Action potential duratio

Amyloidosis for the Gastroenterologist: A Comprehensive Systematic Review of Diagnosis and Management of Gastrointestinal Manifestations.

BackgroundAmyloidosis is a rare, multisystem disorder characterized by extracellular deposition of misfolded protein fibrils. Gastrointestinal (GI) amyloidosis is uncommon but under-recognized due to nonspecific symptoms, but early diagnosis is critical to improve quality of life and prognosis. This comprehensive systematic review aimed to summarize current literature on GI and hepatic manifestations of amyloidosis, highlighting diagnostic and management strategies across the major subtypes of amyloidosis, in particular AL (immunoglobulin light chain), ATTR (transthyretin), and AA (serum amylo

Paediatric intestinal pseudo-obstruction: a scoping review.

Paediatric intestinal pseudo-obstruction (PIPO) encompasses a group of rare disorders in which patients present with the clinical features of bowel obstruction in the absence of mechanical occlusion. The management of PIPO presents a challenge as evidence remains limited on available medical and surgical therapy. Parenteral nutrition is often the mainstay of therapy. Long-term therapy may culminate in life-threatening complications including intestinal failure-related liver disease, central line thrombosis and sepsis. Intestinal transplantation remains the only definitive cure in PIPO but is a

Practical recommendations on the use of lenalidomide in the management of myelodysplastic syndromes.

Lenalidomide, an oral immunomodulatory agent, has received approval in the USA from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the management of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) classified by the International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) as low risk or intermediate-1 risk and with a deletion 5q (del(5q)) cytogenetic abnormality. Although some patients with del(5q) have a relatively good prognosis, all del(5q) patients will become transfusion-dependent at some point during the course of their disease. The results of two clinical trials in more than 160 patients with MDS have demonstrated cl

Prevalence, Attributes, and Risk Factors of QT-Interval-Prolonging Drugs and Potential Drug-Drug Interactions in Cancer Patients: A Prospective Study in a Tertiary Care Hospital.

Introduction Cancer chemotherapy regimens include multiple classes of adjuvant drugs as supportive therapy. Because of the concurrent intake of other drugs (like antiemetics, antidepressants, analgesics, and antimicrobials), there is a heightened risk for possible QT interval prolongation. There is a dearth of evidence in the literature regarding the usage of QT-prolonging anticancer drugs and associated risk factors that have the propensity to prolong QT interval. The purpose was to explore the extent of the use of QT-interval-prolonging drugs and potential QT-prolonging drug-drug interaction

Resveratrol: Molecular Mechanisms, Health Benefits, and Potential Adverse Effects.

Resveratrol (RES), a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound, has garnered significant attention due to its diverse biological activities, which include anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiaging properties. This review synthesizes current evidence concerning the molecular mechanisms, therapeutic efficacy, and safety profile of RES across a variety of pathologies, with an emphasis on the latest research conducted in recent years. Mechanistically, RES is known to modulate critical signaling pathways such as the activation of sirtuin 1. These actions collectively contribute to the attenuati
