QUERI provides funding for 4 ESP Centers, and each Center has an active University affiliation. Center Directors are recognized leaders in the field of evidence synthesis with close ties to the AHRQ Evidence-based Practice Centers. The ESP is governed by a Steering Committee comprised of participants from VHA Policy, Program, and Operations Offices, VISN leadership, field-based investigators, and others as designated appropriate by QUERI/HSR&D. The ESP Centers generate evidence syntheses on important clinical practice topics. These reports help: · Develop clinical policies informed by evidence; · Implement effective services to improve patient outcomes and to support VA clinical practice guidelines and performance measures; and · Set the direction for future research to address gaps in clinical knowledge.

  • Update on Dopamine Agonists in Parkinson's Disease: "Beyond Bromocriptine" Anthony E
    THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NEUROLOGICAL SCIENCES Update on Dopamine Agonists in Parkinson's Disease: "Beyond Bromocriptine" Anthony E. Lang ABSTRACT: Since the initiation of bromocriptine therapy for Parkinson's disease several newer dopamine agonists have been developed. Pergolide has reached the stage of Phase 3 clinical trials and will probably be available for general use sometime in the foreseeable future. Lisuride shows most promise in its parenteral form for infusion therapy of patients with severe fluctuations. Mesulergine, another ergot-derivative and ciladopa, a new non-ergot agonist, have been withdrawn from further clinical use due to tumorogenesis in rats. It is questionable how applicable these findings are to the use of the drugs in elderly humans with parkinsonism. Recently a small number of drugs have been found to have postsynaptic dopamine agonist properties only in the setting of denervated supersensitive dopamine receptors. These agents may be particularly effective in the early treatment of patients with Parkinson's disease. This paper will review a number of the dopamine agonists which have been developed since the introduction of bromocriptine therapy. Several of these have shown beneficial effects in early clinical trials while others show promise in preclinical studies of animal models of parkinsonism. RESUME: Mise a jour sur les agonistes dopaminergiques dans le traitement de la maladie de Parkinson. Depuis l'avenement de la therapie par la bromocriptine dans la maladie de Parkinson, plusieurs agonistes dopaminergiques plus recents ont ete developpes. Les etudes sur le pergolide en sont rendues au stage 3 des essais cliniques et il est probable que ce medicament sera disponible sous peu pour utilisation courante.
