To determine whether the orally active iron chelator deferiprone (1,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxypyridin-4-one) is efficacious in treatment of overload patients with thalassemia major, we conducted a prospective trial 21 unable or unwilling to use standard chelation therapy parenteral deferoxamine.
Abstract BACKGROUND Azathioprine (AZP) interferes with nucleic acid synthesis and is teratogenic in animals. In view of the paucity information on use AZP during pregnancy we investigated this subject a prospective, controlled, multicenter study. Our objective was too determine whether exposure to increases risk for major malformations effect outcome. METHODS Pregnant women who contacted one seven teratogen services were compared cohort pregnant two took nonteratogenic treatments their...

Aim To investigate glutathione and antioxidant status changes in erythrocytes from febrile children receiving repeated supratherapeutic paracetamol doses. Methods Fifty‐one aged 2 months to 10 years participated the study. Three groups were studied: group 1 ( n = 24) included afebrile who did not receive paracetamol; 13) 3 14) had fever above 38.5°C for more than 72 h. Patients received at a dose of 50 ± 15 (30–75) mg kg −1 day those recommended therapeutic dose, ie 107 28 (80–180) . A blood...
The assessment of compliance is critical in the evaluation effectiveness a new therapeutic agent. Fifteen patients with transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia, many whom had previously demonstrated erratic deferoxamine, were enrolled clinical trial oral iron chelator, 1,2‐dimethyl‐3‐hydroxypyrid‐4‐one (L1). Their this medication was estimated by several existing methods and novel Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS). Overall as assessed MEMS 78.5 ± 13.0% prescribed doses taken,...

Numerous studies have suggested significant associations between prenatal exposure to heavy metals and newborn anthropometric measures. However, little is known about the effect of various metal mixtures at relatively low concentrations. Hence, this study aimed investigate exposures a wide range individual with measures newborns.We recruited 975 mother-term infant pairs from two major hospitals in Israel. Associations eight (arsenic, cadmium, chromium, mercury, nickel, lead, selenium,...
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), a common finding among premature infants, is conventionally treated by intravenous indomethacin. Intravenous ibuprofen was recently shown to be as effective and have fewer adverse reactions in preterm infants. If equally effective, then oral for PDA closure would several important advantages over the route. This study designed determine whether treatment efficacious safe of infants with respiratory distress syndrome.Twenty-two newborns (gestational age: 27.5...
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are associated with morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although national systems for reporting ADRs exist there is a low rate. The aim of the current study was to evaluate an intervention plan improving among medical professionals (physicians nurses). A multicentre conducted, in which one centre randomly assigned group two centres control group. consisted 3 phases: baseline data collection, follow-up questionnaire that filled at base line end study, contained...
In environmental epidemiology, we use systematic reviews to evaluate the evidence of exposure-outcome relationships with an eye towards regulation. Conflicting results across studies thwart consensus on toxicity. humans, only observational data is available from exposures, complicating construction dose-response full range exposure levels. Individual often lack complete levels because are tied study settings. Pooling populations seems a natural solution, but strong population-dependent...
The aim of this study is to determine the extent use medications that have not been specifically licensed for in children (unlicensed), or whose accordance with conditions their license (off-label), neonates a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Medications given 105 were prospectively reviewed every 2 weeks during 4-month period. assessment as whether medication prescribed was unlicensed off-label based on number reference sources.
