SECOD WHO-ITA / ITA-OMS 2010 COTRIBUTIO O AGGREGATE WHO SYSTEM-ORGA CLASS DISORDERS AD/OR CLUSTERIG BASED O REPORTED ADVERSE REACTIOS/EVETS Dan Bradu and Luigi Rossini* Servizio Nazionale Collaborativo WHO-ITA / ITA-OMS, Università Politecnica delle Marche e Progetto di Farmacotossicovigilanza, Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria Ospedali Riuniti di Ancona, Regione Marche, Italia Summary From the 2010 total basic adverse reactions and events collected as ADRs preferred names in the WHO-Uppsala Drug Monitoring Programme, subdivided in its first two twenty years periods as for the first seven iodinated products diagnostic contrast agents amidotrizoate, iodamide, iotalamate, iodoxamate, ioxaglate, iohexsol and iopamidol, their 30 WHO-system organ class disorders (SOCDs) aggregates had been compared. Their common maximum 97% levels identified six SOCDs only, apt to evaluate the most frequent single ADRs for each class, and their percentual normalization profiles for each product. The WILKS's chi square statistics for the related contingency tables, and Gabriel’s STP procedure applied to the extracted double data sets then produced profile binary clustering, as well as Euclidean confirmatory plots. They finally showed similar objectively evaluated autoclassificative trends of these products, which do not completely correspond to their actual ATC V08A A, B and C subdivision: while amidotrizoate and iotalamate, and respectively iohesol and iopamidol are confirmed to belong to the A and B subgroups, ioxaglate behaves fluctuating within A, B and C, but iodamide looks surprizingly, constantly positioned together with iodoxamate as binary/ternary C associated. In view of the recent work of Campillos et al (Science, 2008) which throws light on the subject, the above discrepancies do not appear anymore unexpected or alarming.

The analysis highlighted striking differences both when they were subdivided into system-organ class disorders (SOCDs) or studied together, and when they were analyzed in terms of five pairs of biosimilars and their respective, agreed, generic reference products.

  • The History of Contrast Media Development in X-Ray Diagnostic Radiology
    MEDICAL PHYSICS INTERNATIONAL Journal, Special Issue, History of Medical Physics 3, 2020 The History of Contrast Media Development in X-Ray Diagnostic Radiology Adrian M K Thomas FRCP FRCR FBIR Canterbury Christ Church University, Canterbury, Kent UK. Abstract: The origins and development of contrast media in X-ray imaging are described. Contrast media were used from the earliest days of medical imaging and a large variety of agents of widely different chemical natures and properties have been used. The use of contrast media, which should perhaps be seen as an unavoidable necessity, have contributed significantly to the understanding of anatomy, physiology and pathology. Keywords: Contrast Media, Pyelography, Angiography, X-ray, Neuroimaging. I. INTRODUCTION Contrast media have been used since the earliest days of radiology [1], and developments in medical imaging have not removed the need for their use as might have been predicted. The history of contrast media is complex and interesting and has recently been reviewed by Christoph de Haën [2] . The need for contrast media was well expressed by the pioneer radiologist Alfred Barclay when he said in 1913 that ‘The x-rays penetrate all substances to a lesser or greater extent, the resistance that is offered to their passage being approximately in direct proportion to the specific gravity’ [3]. Barclay continued by noting that ‘The walls of the alimentary tract do not differ from the rest of the abdominal contents in this respect, and consequently they give no distinctive shadow on the fluorescent screen or radiogram.’ Barclay clearly states the essential problem confronting radiologists. The density differences that are seen on the plain radiographs are those of soft tissue (which is basically water), bony and calcified structures, fatty tissues, and gas.
