Hook-and-Line Catch in Fertilized and Unfertilized Ponds
Authors: Hansen Donald F. , Bennett George W. , Webb Robert J. , Lewis John M.
Published: May 2020

The objective of the pond fertilization measure the effect of certain fertilization practices on sport fishing for largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepede), and bluegills, Lepomis macrochirus Rafinesque, in small ponds located in a region of relativelv unproductive soils. From catch records gathered over a 6-year period, 1947-1952, from three fertilized ponds and three unfertilized or control ponds, we have been able to compare the sizes of the fish caught, the annual hook-and-line yields, and the catch rates in terms of fish per fisherman-hour. The six ponds used in the experiment are located at the University of Illinois College of Agriculture Dixon Springs Experiment Station in Pope County, southern Illinois. The fertilization program used at Dixon Springs was of apparent benefit to bluegill fishing but of doubtful benefit to bass fishing; any benefits derived from direct fertilization of ponds were in addition to benefits that may have resulted from fertilization of the pond watersheds. Comparison of yields from the fertilized and unfertilized ponds at Dixon Springs shows that the greater yields of fish from the fertilized ponds were obtained at costs estimated to range from $0.71 to $1.18 a pound. Whether the improvement in the quality of bluegill fishing attributed tofertilization was great enough to be detected by fishermen is questionable for at least two of the three fertilized ponds.
Hybridization of Four Species of Sunfishes (Centrarchidae)
Authors: Childers William Franklin
Published: May 2020

Red-ear sunfish, Lepomis microlophus (Gunther); bluegill, L. macrochiris Rafinesque; green sunfish, L. cyanellus Rafinesque; and warmouth, Chaenobryttus gulosus (Cuvier) are present in a number of east-central Illinois lakes and ponds and are known to hybridize occasionally. During 1957 through 1964, the spawning seasons of these species were observed to extend from mid-May to August or September. Red-ear sunfish, bluegills, and green sunfish usually nested in colonies, and mixed colonies containing two and, less frequently, all three of these species were not uncommon. Warmouths tended to be more solitary in their nest site selections. Gametes stripped from the four species were paired in 16 different combinations to produce zygotes representing 12 kinds of F1 hybrids and the four parental species.  warmouth male x bluegill female and warmouth male X red-ear female crosses were 100 percent lethal, and the warmouth male x green sunfish female cross was partially lethal.  Based on the percentages of zygotes that hatched and developed into normal-appearing fry, the viability of each of the remaining nine kinds of hybrids was not significantly different from that of its maternal parent.

The writer desires to express his thanks to Prof. S. A. Forbes for permission to study the collections and use the notes, as well as for many other favors; to Dr. C. V. Riley, who has very kindly verified the determinations; and to Dr. A. S. Packard, Prof. H. Garman, and Mr. Chas. W. Woodworth for favors received.
Larvae of the Sericothripini (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), with Reference to Other Larvae of the Terebrantia, of Illinois
Authors: Vance Thomas C.
Published: May 2020

The morphology and taxonomy of the immature stages of the Thysanoptera have received minimum attention in North America. Significant contributions on the larvae of thrips have been made in Europe, East Asia, and North Africa (Priesner 1926fl, 1926Zj-192S, and 1960) and in India (Jagadish & Ananthakrishnan 1972), and these studies constitute the basis of our knowledge. In the United States most of the descriptions of the immature stages are found in accounts of the life histories of economically important thrips. This report deals mainly with the second-stage larvae, especially the known forms belonging to the tribe Sericothripini as represented in Illinois, and includes a comparison of the larval characteristics of many of the genera of the suborder Terebrantia that are found in the same region. Larval characteristics were used to substantiate the classification formerly based on adult features and to interpret the phylogeny of this insect order. A special study on the life history of Seiicothrips variabilis (Beach) was included to provide an example of the bionomics of a common species. References to the literature, with few exceptions, terminated in 1971 when this report was submitted as a Master of Science thesis to the Department of Entomology, University of Illinois, Urbana.
Root Infection of Woody Hosts with Verticillium albo-atrum
Authors: Born Gerald L.
Published: May 2020

Verticilium wilt is a plant disease caused by the fungus Verticil- Hum albo-atrum Reinke and Berthold. This pathogen is peculiar in tliat it does not confine its attacks to one host, or a few closely related hosts, as is so frequently the case with most other pathogenic fungi; it attacks a large number of widely unrelated plants, many of which are of economic importance. The disease does not often occur in forest stands, but it is becoming increasingly prevalent in plantings of ornamental trees and shrubs, particularly in temperate regions of the world. The present study initiated in 1970 and completed in 1972 deals with ( 1 the influence of root wounds and age of wounds on infection, (2) penetration and development of the fungus in susceptible and resistant woody hosts, (3) analysis of the growth response of young tree seedlings after root infection, (4) the influence of temperature and heat treating of soil on development of V. albo-atrum in excised roots, and (5) laboratory and greenhouse evaluation of fungicides against V. albo-atrum. This report is adapted from a thesis submitted to the University of Illinois in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Pliilosophy in Plant Pathology.

Primary Insect Types in the Illinois Natural History Survey Collection, Exclusive of the Collembola and Thysanoptera
Authors: Webb Donald W.
Published: May 2020

In 1927 T. H. Frison published a list of all the insect types in the collections of the Illinois Natural History Survey and the University of Illinois and the Bolter collection. This list contained 1,067 primary types. Type-specimens in the University of Illinois have subsequently been transferred to the collection of the Illinois Natural History Survey. In the past 50 years 2,113 primary types have been added to the Survey's collection, primarily through the systematic research of T. H. Frison in Plecoptera and Hymenoptera; H. H. Ross in Trichoptera, Plecoptera, Homoptera, and Hymenoptera; H. B. Mills in Collembola; and L. J. Stannard, Jr., in Thysanoptera. The acquisitions of the personal collections of J. W. Folsom in Collembola and C. A. Robertson in Hymenoptera added numerous primary types to the Survey's collections. In addition, several active workers have periodically, or occasionally, deposited their types in the Survey's permanent collection upon completion of specific revisionary studies. Recently, Gerdes (1977) and Mari Mutt (1978) have published lists of all of the types of Thysanoptera and Collembola, respectively, in the Natural History Survey collection.

In this list only primary types currently located in or on loan from the Illinois Natural History Survey collection are listed along with the original citation for each species. The literature citation for the designation of ach neotype and lectotype is also cited. To clarify the type designation within the bees of the Robertson collection, lectotype specimens have been designated by W. E. LaBerge for those species not previously designated in the literature. The genera under which the species are listed are those under which they were originally described. Where possible the sex of each type is given. The term syntype is used in the sense of Article 73c of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (1964) and replaces the term cotype used by Frison (1927).

For simplicity, the within each order alphabetically, the genera are arranged alphabetically within each family, and the species are arranged alphabetically within each genus.

Systematics of Leptosphaeria Species Found on the Rosaceae
Authors: Huhndorf Sabine M.
Published: May 2020

The present research reassesses the taxonomic position of species of Leptosphaeria described from plants in the family Rosaceae. In doing so, this wori< emphasizes a concept of Leptosphaeria based on its type species. Because discrete groups of morphologically similar species were found on related hosts (Nixlulosphaeria on Compositae, Phaeosphaeria on Gramineae and Entodesmiitm on Leguminosae), a goal of the study was to determine whether a distinct group of related species could be found on Rosaceous hosts. Also, approaching the taxonomy of this large, complex genus on the basis of host family is a convenient way of dividing the large numbers of Leptosphaeria species into smaller, workable groups.

Fifty-five species described from Rosaceous hosts have been included in Leptosphaeria (see appendix). Efforts were made to locate and obtain type material for all of the described species. The names of herbaria providing material are abbreviated in this dissertation according to Index Herbariorum (Holmgren et al. 1990). Whenpossible, type specimens were studied, supplemented by other collections, and the species were redescribed and illustrated from the type material. Unfortunately, type material could not be located for all of the species; in such cases, descriptions were based on other material only when the resulting concept of the species was obviously in accordance with the original description. From this work, it became apparent that no discrete group of related species is specialized on the Rosaceae. Thespecies studied were determined to represent a mixture of Loculoascomycetes and Hymenoascomycetes, and non-Leptosphaeria species were reassigned to more appropriate genera.

Published: May 2020

In a 150-day study, we tested for chronic toxicity and effects on reproduction of bismuth/tin (Bi/Sn) alloy shot dosed in game-farm mallards (Anas platyrhynchos). Histopathology of livers, kidneys, gonads, hearts, and lungs showed no significant group-related differences among 0-dosed (controls), iron (Fe)-dosed (8, No. 4, steel shot), and Bi-dosed (8, No. 4, Bi/Sn alloy shot) adult ducks or among ducklings from pairs of these dosed groups. Bi shot, under our test conditions, did not elicit toxicity in mallard ducks or affect their reproduction or offspring.
Black-crowned Night-Heronsof the Lake Calumet Region,Chicago, Illinois
Authors: Marcisz Walter J. , Levengood Jeffrey M. , Klement Allison M. , Kurcz Margaret A.
Published: May 2020

The number of active black-crowned night-heron (Nycticorax nycticorax) nesting colonies in Illinois has declined significantly over the past century. Habitat loss/degradation and other factors such as exposure to environmental contaminants and competition for nest sites at established colonies may have contributed to this decline. In this study, we examined recent trends in population levels of Black-crowned Night-Herons nesting at wetlands associated with Lake Calumet in southeastern Chicago, Illinois. The number of black-crowned night herons nesting annually at these wetlands has fluctuated widely over the last two decades. Immigration of herons from riverine colonies may have driven population increases during the mid-1980s and early 1990s. However, this population has remained relatively stable at between 300 and 400 pairs during 1997–2003.
Review of the New World genera of the Leafhopper Tribe Erythroneurini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocycbinae)
Authors: Dietrich Christopher H. , Dmitriev Dmitry A.
Published: May 2020

The genus-level classification of New World Erythroneurini is revised based on results of a phylogenetic analysis of 100 morphological characters. The 704 known species are placed into 18 genera. Erasmoneura Young and Eratoneura Young, previously treated as subgenera of Erythroneura Fitch, and Erythridula Young, most recently treated as a subgenus of Arboridia Zachvatkin, are elevated to generic status. Three species previously included in Erasmoneura are placed in a new genus, Rossmoneura (type species, Erythroneura tecta McAtee). The concept of Erythroneura is thereby narrowed to include only those species previously included in the nominotypical subgenus. New World species previously included in Zygina Fieber are not closely related to the European type species of that genus and are therefore placed in new genera. Neozygina, n. gen., based on type species Erythroneura ceonothana Beamer, includes all species previously included in the “ceonothana group”, and Zyginama, n. gen., based on type species Erythroneura ritana Beamer, includes most species previously included in the “ritana group” of New World Zygina. Five additional new genera are described to include other previously described North American Erythroneurini: Hepzygina, n. gen., based on type species Erythroneura milleri Beamer and also including E. aprica McAtee; Mexigina, n. gen., based on type species Erythroneura oculata McAtee; Nelionidia, n. gen., based on type species N. pueblensis, n. sp., three additional new species, and Erythroneura amicis Ross; Neoimbecilla, n. gen., based on type species Erythroneura kiperi Beamer and one new species; and Illinigina, n. gen., based on type species Erythroneura illinoiensis Gillette. Five new genera, based on previously undescribed species, are also recognized: Aztegina, n. gen, based on A. punctinota, n. sp., from Mexico; Amazygina, n. gen., based on type species A. decaspina, n. sp., and three additional new species from Ecuador; Hamagina, n. gen., based on type species H. spinigera, n. sp., and two additional new species from Peru and Ecuador; Napogina, n. gen., based on type species N. recta, n. sp., and one additional new species from Ecuador; Perugina, n. gen., based on type species P. denticula, n. sp., from Peru; and Spinigina, n. gen., based on type species S. hirsuta, n. sp., and an additional new species from Peru. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that the New World Erythroneurini consist of three lineages resulting from separate invasions from the Old World.

Published: May 2020

This study was undertaken to determine vascular plant species composition, vegetation structure, and floristic quality of the major plant communities in the windblown sand deposits of northwestern Illinois during the growing seasons of 2002 through 2005. The major plant communities of the Ayers Sand Prairie Nature Preserve in Carroll County, Big River State Forest in Henderson County, Lost Mound Unit of the Upper Mississippi River Wildlife and Fish Refuge in Carroll and Jo Daviess counties, and the Thomson-Fulton Sand Prairie Nature Preserve located in Whiteside County were examined and the importance values determined for the plant species present. Located on broad terraces of the Mississippi River, these nature preserves and natural areas are remnants of a larger grassland/savanna/forest complex that contained extensive marsh; wet, mesic, and dry sand prairie; sand savanna; and sand forest communities. Most of the sand deposits are now cultivated and the original vegetation is found only in protected remnants, some of which are relatively large. The mature dry sand prairies were dominated by Schizachyrium scoparium; other important species were Opuntia macrorhiza, Dichanthelium villosissimum, Ambrosia psilostachya, and Tephrosia virginiana. Other assemblages of prairie and exotic species were encountered in successional sand prairie communities. Generally, the mature prairie communities in these preserves and natural areas had 35 or more species present in the study plots. Savanna and closed canopy forest communities were also examined. The dry sand savannas were dominated by Quercus velutina and Q. marilandica, dry sand forests were dominated by Q. velutina, and dry-mesic sand forests were dominated by Q. alba and Q. velutina.

Contaminants in Unionid Mussels from the Confluence of the Mississippi and Illinois Rivers
Authors: Esarey Joan , Soucek David J. , Levengood Jeffrey M. , Hudson Robert J. , Wimer Wade , Halbrook Richard S.
Published: May 2020

Unionid mussels were collected from three mussel beds near the confluence of the Mississippi and Illinois rivers in 2003 to evaluate concentrations of selected elements and organic compounds in three abundant species and to preliminarily investigate the relative contribution of these waterways to observed contaminant burdens. Copper (Cu), selenium (Se), and zinc (Zn) concentrations were higher and lead (Pb) concentrations were lower in Amblema plicata collected downstream of the confluence than in those collected upstream. Mean concentrations of nickel (Ni), total mercury (Hg), methylmercury (MeHg), Pb, and Zn varied by species. Concentrations of cadmium (Cd) decreased with age in A. plicata from two of three sites. Tissue concentrations of some elements, e.g., arsenic (As), Cd, Cu, Pb, Se, and Zn, were similar to or higher than those previously reported for unionid mussels from areas of contaminated sediment. Concentrations of Cd, Cu, and Zn in A. plicata were comparable to those collected from the Mississippi River approximately 450 and 900 km upstream from our study sites (Naimo et al. 1992). Although total Hg concentrations we observed were an order of magnitude lower than in that study, MeHg concentrations were above those associated with reductions in soft tissue mass in a study of Elliptio complanata (Salazar et al. 1995). A number of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners were detected in A. plicata tissues, with 85% of detections occurring in mussels from downstream of the confluence. Concentrations of individual PCB congeners were ≤33 ng/g ww and the maximum summed PCB congener concentration was 100.2 ng/g ww. Although few persistent pesticides were detected, -hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) was detected in each of the species collected from below the confluence of the two rivers, and in A. plicata collected above it on both the Mississippi and Illinois rivers, at a maximum concentration of 103.5 ng/g ww. Aldrin, δ-HCH and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) were detected in few of the specimens collected. The findings of this preliminary investigation suggest that unionid mussels from near the confluence of the Mississippi and Illinois rivers may be at risk of negative health effects of elevated exposure to certain environmental contaminants. Studies examining the health and productivity of unionid mussels from this area appear warranted.

Abstract

Sportfish species, specifically Yellow Bass Morone mississippiensis, White Bass Morone chrysops, Largemouth Bass Micropterus salmoides, Bluegill Lepomis macrochirus, Black Crappie Pomoxis nigromaculatus, and White Crappie P. annularis, often drive economically valuable fisheries in large river systems, including the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS).  Within the Illinois River, part of the UMRS, these species are routinely sampled by an ongoing long-term fisheries monitoring program.  Through this program, we investigated long-term trends (1993-2017) in catch rates and relative weights and quantified demographic rates from 2012-2016. We found all six species, with the exception of Yellow Bass, to have declining catch rates with this decline being most stark in larger, older fishes.  Population demographics for Yellow Bass, White Bass, Bluegill, and Black Crappie suggest populations are dominated by younger individuals, with only Black Crappie regularly living to age 3 and older, which may be driving population declines.  There are many environmental stressors acting on the Illinois River that could be contributing to the lack of older and larger fishes, including, but not limited to, navigation efforts, altered hydrology, pollution, sedimentation, lack of overwintering habitat, and introduction of invasive species.  Results of this study demonstrate that additional research to understand mechanisms driving reduced abundance and stunted age structure are needed to identify effective management actions that would benefit populations of recreationally valuable sportfish species.

Published: May 2020

When the work of the Illinois Biological Station was begun in 1894. it seemed to the Director desirable to determine as far as possible the normal routine of aquatic life as a necessary basis for the detection of problems for investigationand experiment, and as an indispensable background for their adequate solution. Such an investigation demands not only the discovery and specific determination of the biological population, but involves also the study of life histories, seasonal changes, and mutual dependencies of the assembled organisms by quantitative and statistical methods, together with a study of the environment and an analysis of its factors.

The Island of Bali, by Miguel Covarrubias, has remained one of the definitive treatments of the subject since its original publication in 1937. The book’s facility with words is matched by elegance of drawing. The book was also composed in a colonial context, written by a Mexican who was part of a Euro-American group of cosmopolitan intellectuals and artists. Miguel Covarrubias has been attacked as an orientalist, and praised as a trans-Pacific visionary. His encounter with Bali was especially an encounter with Balinese art, especially the new form of modernism emerging in the 1930s. Covarrubias’s interests in magic coincided with Balinese preoccupations with spiritual forces, something he pursued with his study of Balinese texts. For Covarrubias, art was a vehicle for achieving liberation. Despite heavy outside editorial intervention, Island of Bali advances a global view of connec-tions between societies through art.
Moldear la danza-drama barong en el Bali paradisiaco: discursos orientalistas de Miguel Covarrubias y sus redes
Authors: Bosnak Judith E.
Published: May 2020

IIn the 1930s Mexican artist Miguel Covarrubias carried out fieldwork in Bali, an island of the Dutch East Indies. A few years before his arrival, the colonial government had implemented cultural and educational policies, known as “balinization,” meant to preserve Balinese “unique” culture and to ward off external influences like Islam and nationalism. Efforts to Balinize the Balinese by Dutch Orientalist scholar-administrators went hand in hand with creative endeavours of a group of bohemian expatriates to promote Bali and to promote themselves to the world as quintessentially different. Cosmopolitan Covarrubias was at the basis of the romantic image making of “paradise” Bali by dedicating himself to ethnographic recording of a world that might soon be lost. Eager to register “pure” Balinese culture, he actively participated in shaping performing arts. Covarrubias and his networks turned barong dance into a cultural icon.

REPRESENTASI KONSEP RUANG DAN WAKTU DALAM NOVEL GLONGGONG KARYA JUNAEDI SETIYONO PERSPEKTIF EKOLOGI BUDAYA
Authors: Sugiarti Sugiarti
Published: May 2020

Lingkungan dalam dimensi sosial tidak dapat dilepaskan dengan ruang dan waktu. Ruang dan waktu menarik untuk dikaji karena di dalamnya menyimpan makna yang dalam bagi kehidupan manusia secara total. Karya sastra menjadi dokumen sosio-budaya yang merekam berbagai kondisi yang terjadi pada suatu tempat dan masa tertentu. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan representasi dimensi ruang dan waktu perspektif ekologi budaya. Subjek penelitian novel Glonggong karya Junaedi Setiyono. Data dikumpulkan melalui kajian pustaka dan analisis wacana pada novel Glonggong. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa representyasi ruang dapat dimaknai dalam konteks ruang publik dan ruang privat. Kedua ruang ini menyatu sehingga bersinergi untuk membangun karakter cerita secara keseluruhan yang menyaran pada pengetahuan yang dimilikinya. Representasi waktu berdimensi tidak tetap sehingga selalu terjadi perubahan dan tidak stagnan. Pada sisi inilah menempatkan ruang dan waktu tidak sesederhana yang dipahami karena keduanya memiliki cara dalam menyingkap kerahasian hidup yang bersifat mistis. Ruang dan waktu tidak pernah dianggap sebagai bentuk-bentuk murni atau bentuk kosong. Keduanya selalu berinteraksi dengan komunitas yang bergulir dengan tempat dan waktu.
An Adaptive Optimizer for Measurement-Frugal Variational Algorithms
Authors: Kübler Jonas M. , Arrasmith Andrew , Cincio Lukasz , Coles Patrick J.
Published: May 2020

Variational hybrid quantum-classical algorithms (VHQCAs) have the potential to be useful in the era of near-term quantum computing. However, recently there has been concern regarding the number of measurements needed for convergence of VHQCAs. Here, we address this concern by investigating the classical optimizer in VHQCAs. We introduce a novel optimizer called individual Coupled Adaptive Number of Shots (iCANS). This adaptive optimizer frugally selects the number of measurements (i.e., number of shots) both for a given iteration and for a given partial derivative in a stochastic gradient descent. We numerically simulate the performance of iCANS for the variational quantum eigensolver and for variational quantum compiling, with and without noise. In all cases, and especially in the noisy case, iCANS tends to out-perform state-of-the-art optimizers for VHQCAs. We therefore believe this adaptive optimizer will be useful for realistic VHQCA implementations, where the number of measurements is limited.

We report the ccase of a 65-year-old woman presenting with urosepsis in the context of a one-week history of progressive right flank pain and a past medical history of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Computed Tomography (CT) demonstrated evidence of emphysematous pyelitis, a rare infection caused by gas-producing bacteria associated with elevated blood glucose. The patient responded well to fluid resuscitation and was discharged home with follow-up arranged for blood sugar management and outpatient lithotripsy addressing obstructive renal calculus.
Minding The Gap: Severe Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis Associated With 5-Oxoproline Secondary To Chronic Acetaminophen Use
Authors: Frankfurter Claudia , Venus Kevin , Frost David
Published: May 2020

AbstractAn 89-year-old man with multiple comorbidities presented to the emergency department with diffuse abdominal pain and dyspnea. He was found to have a severe anion-gap metabolic acidosis with the normal osmolar gap. An initial panel of investigations for common causes of anion-gap metabolic acidosis was unremarkable. Further history revealed long-term daily acetaminophen use. A presumptive diagnosis of 5-oxoprolinemia secondary to chronic acetaminophen use was made. Despite supportive care, the patient did not survive. There is emerging literature on elevated anion gap metabolic acidosis induced by the accumulation of 5-oxoproline, an intermediate organic acid in the gamma-glutamyl cycle. A quantitative profile of urinary organic acids to measure 5-oxoproline is valuable in confirming the diagnosis. Treatment is largely supportive, consisting of cessation of acetaminophen, alkali therapy, and N-acetylcysteine. Clinicians should consider 5-oxoprolemia in patients who present with an otherwise unexplained anion gap metabolic acidosis and a history of chronic acetaminophen use.

RESUMEUn homme de 89 ans souffrant de comorbidités multiples s’est présenté à l’urgence avec douleur abdominale diffuse et dyspnée. On a découvert qu’il souffrait d’une acidose métabolique grave à anions nuls avec un écart osmolaire normal. Un premier groupe d’études sur les causes courantes d’acidose métabolique à intervalle anionique n’a pas été remarquable. D’autres antécédents ont révélé une utilisation quotidienne à long terme de l’acétaminophène. Un diagnostic présumé de 5-oxoprolinémie secondaire à l’utilisation chronique d’acétaminophène a été posé. Malgré des soins de soutien, le patient n’a pas survécu. Il existe une littérature émergente sur l’acidose métabolique à intervalle anionique élevé induite par l’accumulation de 5-oxoproline, un acide organique intermédiaire dans le cycle gamma-glutamyle. Un profil quantitatif d’acides organiques urinaires pour mesurer la 5-oxoproline est utile pour confirmer le diagnostic. Le traitement est largement favorable, consistant en l’arrêt de l’acétaminophène, un traitement alcalin et de la N-acétylcystéine. Les cliniciens devraient envisager l’administration de 5-oxoprolemia chez les patients qui présentent une acidose métabolique par gap anionique autrement inexpliquée et des antécédents d’utilisation chronique d’acétaminophène.

Rhabdomyolysis as a Side Effect of the Drug Interaction Between Atorvastatin and Sacubitril/Valsartan
Authors: Chan Ka Hong (Casey) , Pournazari Payam , Champagne Patick
Published: May 2020

Sacubitril/valsartan is an increasingly used medication in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction. Here, we present an 83-year-old male with an ejection fraction of 18% who presented with rhabdomyolysis shortly after initiation of this medication in the setting of being on atorvastatin safely for many years previously. Interestingly, prior pharmacological studies have demonstrated an interaction between sacubitril and atorvastatin via the OATP pathway. In particular, sacubitril has been shown to inhibit OATP1B1 and 1B3, the rate-limiting step for the elimination of atorvastatin, which can result in the drug’s accumulation. This phenomenon was determined to be the most likely etiology behind the patient’s rhabdomyolysis in this case. Once the medications were discontinued, the rhabdomyolysis resolved. If both a statin and sacubitril/ valsartan need to be co-administered, starting the statin at a low dose with careful monitoring of symptoms, CK, electrolytes, and creatinine during gradual titration should be considered.

Le sacubitril/valsartan est un médicament de plus en plus utilisé chez les patients souffrant de dysfonctionnement grave du ventricule gauche. Nous présentons ici un homme de 83 ans avec une fraction d’éjection de 18 % qui a présenté une rhabdomyolyse peu après le début de ce médicament dans le cadre d’un traitement à l’atorvastatine sans risque pendant plusieurs années auparavant. Il est intéressant de noter que des études pharmacologiques antérieures ont démontré une interaction entre le sacubitril et l’atorvastatine par la voie de l’OATP. En particulier, il a été démontré que le sacubitril inhibe l’OATP1B1 et 1B3, l’étape limitant la vitesse d’élimination de l’atorvastatine, ce qui peut entraîner l’accumulation du médicament. Ce phénomène a été déterminé comme étant l’étiologie la plus probable derrière la rhabdomyolyse du patient dans ce cas. Une fois les médicaments arrêtés, la rhabdomyolyse s’est résorbée. Si une statine et le sacubitril/valsartan doivent être co-administrés, il faut envisager de commencer la statine à faible dose en surveillant attentivement les symptômes, la CK, les électrolytes et la créatinine pendant le titrage progressif.
