Diclofenac, a relatively new NSAID, was first introduced into the UK in 1979. Five cases of hepatitis have recently been reported, principally in the French literature. -5 We report the first fulminant case of hepatitis in the English literature in a patient taking diclofenac and indomethacin. Diclofenac is a member of the arylalkanoic group of 100 mg per day for five weeks. Ferrous sulphate one NSAIDS (Fig. 1). Three other agents in this group tablet daily was added on 16 May.

  • An in Vitro Approach to Detect Metabolite Toxicity Due to CYP3A4
    Toxicology 216 (2005) 154–167 An in vitro approach to detect metabolite toxicity due to CYP3A4-dependent bioactivation of xenobiotics Luisella Vignati ∗, Elisa Turlizzi 1, Sonia Monaci, Pietro Grossi, Ruben de Kanter, Mario Monshouwer 2 Department of Pre-Clinical Development, Nerviano Medical Sciences S.r.l., V.le Pasteur, 10, 20014, Nerviano, MI, Italy Received 22 June 2005; received in revised form 3 August 2005; accepted 3 August 2005 Available online 19 September 2005 Abstract Many adverse drug reactions are caused by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) dependent activation of drugs into reactive metabolites. In order to reduce attrition due to metabolism-mediated toxicity and to improve safety of drug candidates, we developed two in vitro cell-based assays by combining an activating system (human CYP3A4) with target cells (HepG2 cells): in the first method we incubated microsomes containing cDNA-expressed CYP3A4 together with HepG2 cells; in the second approach HepG2 cells were transiently transfected with CYP3A4. In both assay systems, CYP3A4 catalyzed metabolism was found to be comparable to the high levels reported in hepatocytes. Both assay systems were used to study ten CYP3A4 substrates known for their potential to form metabolites that exhibit higher toxicity than the parent compounds. Several endpoints of toxicity were evaluated, and the measurement of MTT reduction and intracellular ATP levels were selected to assess cell viability. Results demonstrated that both assay systems are capable to metabolize the test compounds leading to increased toxicity, compared to their respective control systems. The co-incubation with the CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole confirmed that the formation of reactive metabolites was CYP3A4 dependent.

  • AHRQ Quality Indicators Fact Sheet
    AHRQ Quality Indicators Toolkit Fact Sheet on Inpatient Quality Indicators What are the Inpatient Quality Indicators? The Inpatient Quality Indicators (IQIs) include 28 provider-level indicators established by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) that can be used with hospital inpatient discharge data to provide a perspective on quality. They are grouped into the following four sets: • Volume indicators are proxy, or indirect, measures of quality based on counts of admissions during which certain intensive, high-technology, or highly complex procedures were performed. They are based on evidence suggesting that hospitals performing more of these procedures may have better outcomes. • Mortality indicators for inpatient procedures include procedures for which mortality has been shown to vary across institutions and for which there is evidence that high mortality may be associated with poorer quality of care. • Mortality indicators for inpatient conditions include conditions for which mortality has been shown to vary substantially across institutions and for which evidence suggests that high mortality may be associated with deficiencies in the quality of care. • Utilization indicators examine procedures whose use varies significantly across hospitals and for which questions have been raised about overuse, underuse, or misuse. Mortality for Selected Procedures and Mortality for Selected Conditions are composite measures that AHRQ established in 2008. Each composite is estimated as a weighted average, across a set of IQIs, of the ratio of a hospital’s observed rate (OR) to its expected rate (ER), based on a reference population: OR/ER. The IQI-specific ratios are adjusted for reliability before they are averaged, to minimize the influence of ratios that are high or low at a specific hospital by chance.
