[Title]: Preventive therapy for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced ulcers in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis: the current situation and a prospective controlled-study of the preventive effects of lansoprazole or famotidine.
[Abstract]: BACKGROUND: There is a lack of evidence for the efficacy of preventive medications for peptic ulcers (PUs) among long-term users of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in Japan. AIM: To estimate the preventive effect by normal dose, not high-dose histamine-H2 receptor antagonists (H2RA) for NSAID-induced ulcers. METHODS: We designed two different studies to assess the efficacy of anti-ulcer agents in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in patients treated over a long term with NSAIDs. An investigative survey divided patients into those not taking anti-ulcer agents (non-medication group); those taking mucosal protective agents (mucosal protectant group), H2RA (H2RA group), proton pump inhibitors (PPI group), or a prostaglandin E1 analog (PG) (PG group). The second study compared prospectively the preventive effects of either famotidine 20 mg bd (famotidine group) or lansoprazole 15 mg daily (lansoprazole group) in patients with PU scars. RESULTS: The prevalence of PU in the H2RA group was significantly lower compared to the mucosal protectant group (P &lt; 0.05), and the mucosal protectant group was not significantly different to the non-medication group. The prospective study revealed that the PU onset rate of the famotidine group was 8% (1/13), and lansoprazole group was 15% (2/13), indicating no significant differences between the two. CONCLUSIONS: In Japan, normal-dose H2RA is expected to be a new PU preventive treatment strategy in patients requiring long-term NSAID therapy.

[Title]: A review of carvedilol arrhythmia data in clinical trials.
[Abstract]: beta-Blockers are currently being evaluated more intensively to define their role in clinical use as antiarrhythmic agents. beta-Adrenergic blockade has been studied in relation to atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden death; however, it is apparent from a number of studies that not all beta-blockers are equally effective. Randomized clinical trial data, both in heart failure and post-myocardial infarction (MI) patients, have shown differences in mortality benefits in addition to a variable effect on arrhythmias and sudden death. Carvedilol, a third-generation beta-blocker with proven clinical benefit in the management of heart failure and post-MI patients, has properties that may make it an effective antiarrhythmic agent. This paper reviews the current clinical arrhythmia data available for carvedilol from large-scale clinical trials and small studies. The trial evidence demonstrates that carvedilol therapy can be an effective adjunctive rate-control therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation, prevent mortality in patients with heart failure or post-MI with left ventricular dysfunction, with or without atrial fibrillation, and reduce its onset and the incidence of ventricular arrhythmia and sudden death.
