Placebo-controlled, comparative study of the efficacy and safety of triamcinolone acetonide inhalation aerosol with the non-CFC propellant HFA-134a in patients with asthma. Azmacort HFA Clinical Study Group.

Triamcinolone acetonide (TAA) inhalation aerosol (Azmacort Inhalation Aerosol), a well-established corticosteroid treatment for bronchial asthma, utilizes the chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) propellant P-12, which will be phased out because of environmental concerns. Two TAA aerosol formulations have been developed using a non-chlorofluorocarbon propellant, HFA-134a (Azmacort HFA Inhalation Aerosol delivering TAA 75 microg/puff or 225 microg/puff). This study compared the efficacy and safety of the new 225 microg/puff formulation (TAA-HFA 225) to the marketed TAA inhalation aerosol (TAA-CFC) and to placebo in adult patients with moderate-to-severe persistent asthma. After a 5-day to 21-day baseline period during which all patients received TAA-CFC 150 microg/day, 538 patients were randomized to one of the following treatment schedules: TAA-HFA 450, 900, or 1800 microg/day; TAA-CFC 450 or 900 microg/day; or placebo for 12 weeks. All active treatment groups showed statistically significant improvement compared with placebo in pulmonary function (FEV1, FEF25-75%, morning and evening PEF), use of rescue albuterol, and asthma symptom scores. Improvements in all variables occurred within 1 week of treatment. The TAA-HFA 225 exhibited similar safety and efficacy profiles to the two equivalent doses of TAA-CFC studied. Our findings indicate that TAA-HFA is a safe and effective replacement for the currently marketed CFC-containing product. The higher strength 225 microg/puff formulation provides effective control of asthma with fewer inhalations.

CT visual quantitative evaluation of hypertensive patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19): Potential influence of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors / angiotensin receptor blockers on severity of lung involvement.

There is not enough data on the effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs)/angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) on lung involvement in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia and hypertension (HT). Our aim was to compare the lung involvement of the HT patients hospitalized for COVID-19 using ACEIs/ARBs with the patients taking other anti-HT medications. : Patients who have a diagnosis of HT among the patients treated for laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 between 31 March 2020 and 28 May 2020 were included in the study. One hundred and twenty-four patients were divided into two as ACEIs/ARBs group (n = 75) and non-ACEIs/ARBs group (n = 49) according to the anti-HT drug used. The chest CT involvement areas of these two groups were evaluated quantitatively by two observers including all lobes, and total severity score (TSS) was calculated. These TSS values were compared between drug groups and clinical groups. In clinical classification; there were 4 (%3.2) asymptomatic, 5 (4.0%) mild type, 92 (74.1%) common type, 14 (11.3%) severe type, 9 (7.3%) critical type patients. ACEI/ARB group's TSS (mean±SD, 7.74 ± 3.54) was statistically higher than other anti-HT medication group (mean±SD, 4.40 ± 1.89) (<i>p</i> < .001). Likewise, severe-critical clinical type's TSS (mean±SD, 9.17 ± 3.44) was statistically higher than common type (mean±SD, 5.76 ± 3.07) (<i>p</i> < .001). Excellent agreement was established between the two blinded observers in the TSS measurements. Quantitative evaluation of CT and TSS score can give an idea about the clinical classification of the patient. TSS is higher in ACEI/ARB group than non-ACEIs/ARBs group.

CT visual quantitative evaluation of hypertensive patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19): Potential influence of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors / angiotensin receptor blockers on severity of lung involvement.

There is not enough data on the effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs)/angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) on lung involvement in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia and hypertension (HT). Our aim was to compare the lung involvement of the HT patients hospitalized for COVID-19 using ACEIs/ARBs with the patients taking other anti-HT medications. : Patients who have a diagnosis of HT among the patients treated for laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 between 31 March 2020 and 28 May 2020 were included in the study. One hundred and twenty-four patients were divided into two as ACEIs/ARBs group (n = 75) and non-ACEIs/ARBs group (n = 49) according to the anti-HT drug used. The chest CT involvement areas of these two groups were evaluated quantitatively by two observers including all lobes, and total severity score (TSS) was calculated. These TSS values were compared between drug groups and clinical groups. In clinical classification; there were 4 (%3.2) asymptomatic, 5 (4.0%) mild type, 92 (74.1%) common type, 14 (11.3%) severe type, 9 (7.3%) critical type patients.

Randomized evaluation of ticagrelor monotherapy after 3-month dual-antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome treated with new-generation sirolimus-eluting stents: TICO trial rationale and design.

Ticagrelor monotherapy after short-term dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) may optimize ischemic and bleeding risks, particularly for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients, because its strategy is less potent than ticagrelor-based DAPT but more potent than aspirin or clopidogrel monotherapy. The TICO randomized open-label trial will evaluate whether ticagrelor monotherapy following 3-month DAPT is superior to 12-month ticagrelor-based DAPT in terms of net adverse clinical events (NACE) including efficacy and safety in ACS patients treated with ultrathin bioresorbable polymer sirolimus-eluting stents (BP-SES). Patients undergoing BP-SES implantation for ACS treatment will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to the (1) ticagrelor monotherapy group after 3-month DAPT; or the (2) 12-month DAPT group. The primary endpoint is NACE within 12 months of percutaneous coronary intervention, which includes major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) plus major bleeding as defined by Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction. MACCE includes the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, stroke, and target vessel revascularization. Secondary endpoints included each component of the primary endpoint. The TICO trial is an ongoing trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor monotherapy following 3-month DAPT exclusively in ACS patients treated with uniform BP-SES. It may provide novel insights regarding the need for adjusted use of DAPT for rebalancing risk-benefit in current practice and changing from the conventional concept of aspirin maintenance to a ticagrelor-based regimen in the management of ACS.

The TICO randomized open-label trial will evaluate whether ticagrelor monotherapy following 3-month DAPT is superior to 12-month ticagrelor-based DAPT in terms of net adverse clinical events (NACE) including efficacy and safety in ACS patients treated with ultrathin bioresorbable polymer sirolimus-eluting stents (BP-SES). Patients undergoing BP-SES implantation for ACS treatment will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to the (1) ticagrelor monotherapy group after 3-month DAPT; or the (2) 12-month DAPT group. The primary endpoint is NACE within 12 months of percutaneous coronary intervention, which includes major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) plus major bleeding as defined by Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction. MACCE includes the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, stroke, and target vessel revascularization. Secondary endpoints included each component of the primary endpoint. The TICO trial is an ongoing trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor monotherapy following 3-month DAPT exclusively in ACS patients treated with uniform BP-SES. It may provide novel insights regarding the need for adjusted use of DAPT for rebalancing risk-benefit in current practice and changing from the conventional concept of aspirin maintenance to a ticagrelor-based regimen in the management of ACS.

Efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis on postoperative inflammatory complications in Chinese patients having impacted mandibular third molars removed: a split-mouth, double-blind, self-controlled, clinical trial.

We investigated the effect of antibiotic prophylaxis on postoperative inflammatory complications after operations for impacted mandibular third molars in Chinese patients. A total of 207 patients had their bilateral third molars removed in a split-mouth, double-blind, self-controlled, clinical trial in two visits. For one side amoxicillin (or clindamycin) was given (antibiotic group) from one hour before operation until 3 days postoperatively. For the other side a placebo was given (placebo group) at the same time. The outcome, including alveolar osteitis, surgical wound infection, prebuccal infection, and infection of the anterior isthmus of fauces, was assessed 2 and 10 days postoperatively. A total of 192 patients completed the study, and there was no difference between the groups in the incidence of inflammatory complications. In the treatment group, there were 4 cases of alveolar osteitis (2%), 2 infections of the wound (1%), and 14 other reactions (gastrointestinal (n=4), bleeding (n=2), ulcer (n=2), and fever (n=6)). In the placebo group, there were 6 cases of alveolar osteitis (3%), 2 wound infections (1%), and 22 other reactions (bleeding (n=6), ulcer (n=2) and fever (n=14)). There was no significant difference in the extraction time and postoperative reactions, except the pain score on day 10 (p=0.005). Prophylactic amoxicillin (or clindamycin) is not effective for the prevention or reduction of postoperative inflammatory complications after the removal of impacted mandibular third molars in Chinese patients.

For one side amoxicillin (or clindamycin) was given (antibiotic group) from one hour before operation until 3 days postoperatively. For the other side a placebo was given (placebo group) at the same time. The outcome, including alveolar osteitis, surgical wound infection, prebuccal infection, and infection of the anterior isthmus of fauces, was assessed 2 and 10 days postoperatively. A total of 192 patients completed the study, and there was no difference between the groups in the incidence of inflammatory complications. In the treatment group, there were 4 cases of alveolar osteitis (2%), 2 infections of the wound (1%), and 14 other reactions (gastrointestinal (n=4), bleeding (n=2), ulcer (n=2), and fever (n=6)). In the placebo group, there were 6 cases of alveolar osteitis (3%), 2 wound infections (1%), and 22 other reactions (bleeding (n=6), ulcer (n=2) and fever (n=14)). There was no significant difference in the extraction time and postoperative reactions, except the pain score on day 10 (p=0.005). Prophylactic amoxicillin (or clindamycin) is not effective for the prevention or reduction of postoperative inflammatory complications after the removal of impacted mandibular third molars in Chinese patients.

Omeprazole versus ranitidine: short-term triple-therapy in patients with Helicobacter pylori-positive duodenal ulcers.

To compare the results of two short triple-therapy regimens, different only in the antisecretory drugs used, in patients with active duodenal ulcer and Helicobacter pylori infection. All patients received a combination of clarithromycin 250 mg b.d. and tinidazole 500 mg b.d. for 1 week, in addition to an antisecretory drug: omeprazole 20 mg (50 patients) or ranitidine 300 mg (50 patients) twice daily for 1 week, followed by a single daily dose for a further 3 weeks. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, with rapid urease test and histological examination of antral and corpus biopsies, was performed prior to the treatment and at least 2 months after the discontinuation of the antisecretory therapy. Duodenal ulcer healing was documented in all patients at the endoscopic examination after therapy. H. pylori eradication was achieved in 46 of 50 patients (92%, 95% CI = 85-99%) in the omeprazole group and in 43 of 50 patients (86%, 95% CI = 76-96%) in the ranitidine group: the difference is not significant. Omeprazole or ranitidine, in combination with clarithromycin and tinidazole, are equally effective in the eradication of H. pylori infection and healing of duodenal ulcers.

The effects of zolpidem and zopiclone on daytime sleepiness and psychomotor performance.

Zolpidem (ZLP), which has selective affinity to the BZ1 (omega 1) receptor and a short half-life, is a novel hypnotic. The objective of this study is to compare the residual effects of standard clinical doses of ZLP and zopiclone (ZPC), a short-acting hypnotic marginally selective for the BZ1 (omega 1) receptor, given in a single dose on daytime sleepiness and psychomotor function. This study was carried out as a double-blind cross-over study with 10 mg ZLP, 7.5 mg ZPC and a placebo in 12 healthy male adults. In the multiple sleep latency test, sleep latency was not reduced but increased by ZLP and ZPC as well as the placebo when drug plasma levels had nearly reached the peak. Subjects administered ZLP were significantly more feeble, lethargic and antagonistic in mood rating scales than those administered ZPC. The incidence of severe behavioral side effects was higher in the case of ZLP than in the case of ZPC over the same period. Sleep latency the next morning was significantly shorter in the case of ZPC than in the case of ZLP or the placebo. The tapping test performed at the same time demonstrated that the number of taps was significantly less in the case of ZPC than in the case of ZLP or the placebo. The results of the present study suggest that ZLP acts more rapidly than ZPC. On the other hand, ZLP has less residual effect on sleepiness and psychomotor function the next morning.

The tapping test performed at the same time demonstrated that the number of taps was significantly less in the case of ZPC than in the case of ZLP or the placebo. The results of the present study suggest that ZLP acts more rapidly than ZPC. On the other hand, ZLP has less residual effect on sleepiness and psychomotor function the next morning.

The effects of zolpidem and zopiclone on daytime sleepiness and psychomotor performance.

Zolpidem (ZLP), which has selective affinity to the BZ1 (omega 1) receptor and a short half-life, is a novel hypnotic. The objective of this study is to compare the residual effects of standard clinical doses of ZLP and zopiclone (ZPC), a short-acting hypnotic marginally selective for the BZ1 (omega 1) receptor, given in a single dose on daytime sleepiness and psychomotor function. This study was carried out as a double-blind cross-over study with 10 mg ZLP, 7.5 mg ZPC and a placebo in 12 healthy male adults. In the multiple sleep latency test, sleep latency was not reduced but increased by ZLP and ZPC as well as the placebo when drug plasma levels had nearly reached the peak. Subjects administered ZLP were significantly more feeble, lethargic and antagonistic in mood rating scales than those administered ZPC. The incidence of severe behavioral side effects was higher in the case of ZLP than in the case of ZPC over the same period. Sleep latency the next morning was significantly shorter in the case of ZPC than in the case of ZLP or the placebo. The tapping test performed at the same time demonstrated that the number of taps was significantly less in the case of ZPC than in the case of ZLP or the placebo.

Micellar liquid chromatography: a worthy technique for the determination of beta-antagonists in urine samples.

Several beta-antagonists (acebutolol, atenolol, celiprolol, labetalol, metoprolol, nadolol, propranolol) were determined in urine samples with fluorometric detection after direct injection, in less than 15 min, with a micellar mobile phase of 0.1 M sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 15% propanol, and 1% triethylamine at pH 3. The limits of detection (38 criterion) were usually between 3 and 30 ng/mL. The addition of propanol and triethylamine and the reduction of the pH of the mobile phase improved the efficiency of the chromatographic peaks that was rather low in pure micellar eluents. The selection of the composition of the mobile phase was easily performed through the use of an interpretive procedure which considered the retention times and peak shapes of the beta-antagonists in six chromatograms, obtained at varying concentrations of SDS (0.05-0.15 M) and propanol (5-15% v/v). The chromatograms of urine samples from healthy volunteers, which were administered atenolol, metoprolol, and propranolol, showed only one peak for the former drug and several peaks for the other two. These peaks corresponded to the parent drug and metabolites, which indicated the partial and the extensive degradation of metoprolol and propranolol, respectively.

Effect of paraoxonase-1 polymorphism on clinical outcomes in patients treated with clopidogrel after an acute myocardial infarction.

Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) Q192R polymorphism was recently suggested to determine per se clopidogrel response on major cardiovascular events (MACEs). We assessed the impact of PON1, CYP2C19, and ABCB1 polymorphisms on MACE in clopidogrel-treated acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients (N = 2,210), including those undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (n = 1,538). PON1 polymorphism was not associated with increased risk of in-hospital death and MACEs at 1 year (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 1.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.66-1.61 and adjusted HR 0.77, 95% CI 0.42-1.41 for QQ versus RR in all and PCI patients, respectively). The presence of two CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) alleles was associated with the risk of in-hospital death and MACEs at 1 year in the overall population (adjusted odds ratio (OR) 3.67, 95% CI 1.05-12.80 and adjusted HR 1.96, 95% CI 1.08-3.54) and in PCI patients (adjusted OR 6.87, 95% CI 2.52-18.72 and adjusted HR 3.06, 95% CI 1.47-6.41). Unlike CYP2C19 polymorphism, PON1 (Q192R) polymorphism is not a major pharmacogenetic contributor of clinical response to clopidogrel in AMI patients.

PON1 polymorphism was not associated with increased risk of in-hospital death and MACEs at 1 year (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 1.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.66-1.61 and adjusted HR 0.77, 95% CI 0.42-1.41 for QQ versus RR in all and PCI patients, respectively). The presence of two CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) alleles was associated with the risk of in-hospital death and MACEs at 1 year in the overall population (adjusted odds ratio (OR) 3.67, 95% CI 1.05-12.80 and adjusted HR 1.96, 95% CI 1.08-3.54) and in PCI patients (adjusted OR 6.87, 95% CI 2.52-18.72 and adjusted HR 3.06, 95% CI 1.47-6.41). Unlike CYP2C19 polymorphism, PON1 (Q192R) polymorphism is not a major pharmacogenetic contributor of clinical response to clopidogrel in AMI patients.
