Maternal Variables Included in the NRN Genomics Database Duke University: Michael Cotten Maternal Variables Included in the NRN Genomics Database. 14. Obstetric/Maternal items were included in data collection. 1. Whether or not multiple birth 2. Mother’s age 3. Pregnancy History (Gravida/Parity) 4. Marital status at time of baby’s delivery 5. Prenatal Care Y/N (1 visit counts) 6. Insulin dependent diabetes 7. Hypertension/pre-eclampsia/eclampsia 8. Antepartum hemorrhage 9. Timing of rupture of membranes relative to birth 10. Timing relative to birth of onset of labor 11. Antenatal steroids Y/N? 12. Tocolytics Y/N? 13. Antibiotics prior to delivery Y/N? 14. Mode of delivery (C/Section, vaginal) Detailed descriptions from the GDB Manual of Operations in use during the enrollment period for infants whose samples are included in the NICHD NRN Anonymized DNA Bank. 1. Birth Number: The code distinguishes between siblings in the NICU. Twins are coded '1' or '2', for example. It does not necessarily conform to strict birth order from a multiple birth, but is consistent for each baby. 2. Mother's age: Record the age in completed years at the time of delivery. 3. Pregnancy history (include this pregnancy): 3a. Gravida: The number of confirmed pregnancies, including this one. 3b. Parity:The number of products of conception delivered after 20 weeks gestation, resulting in the birth of a child, including this delivery. This includes live births only. Note that each infant of a multiple birth has the same parity. For example, if twins were born and it was the first delivery, then the parity for each twin would be 2. The parity for a singleton birth following these twins would be 3. 4. Marital status: If mother is currently married but separated (including legal separations) use code '1' married. If she is single, divorced or widowed then use code '2' single. If marital status is unknown code '6'. 5. Multiple birth? 5a. Number of fetuses: Include all fetuses, live or stillborn. 6. Mother had at least one pre-natal care visit for this pregnancy. This is our only data to know Prenatal care Y/N. 7. Diabetes - insulin dependent? if diabetes mellitus requiring insulin for control is diagnosed during or prior to present pregnancy. 8. Hypertension/pre-eclampsia/eclampsia? if hypertension, chronic or pregnancy induced, with or without edema and proteinuria, is specifically recorded in the mother's chart, or if a maternal blood pressure above 140 systolic or 90 diastolic recorded prior to or during the present pregnancy. 9. Antepartum hemorrhage? if placenta previa, abruptio or threatened abortion resulting in bleeding, which can be external (vaginal bleeding) or occult (retroplacental clot), other than bloody show, is documented after 20 weeks of pregnancy. 10. Rupture of membranes: 10a. Date: For this study data set, no date will be recorded. Days prior to birth will be inserted in place of the date. For c-sections, if the date is not noted, record the date of birth, or in this data set, Time Zero as the date of rupture of membranes. 10b. Time: This will be time Zero. 11. Was there labor? If YES, onset of labor: Record data for episode of labor which resulted in the birth, in days and time relative to date and time of birth 12. Were steroids given prior to delivery to accelerate pulmonary maturity? As documented in maternal chart, labor and delivery record. 'Y' if corticosteroids, e.g. betamethasone or dexamethasone, given during this pregnancy. 12a. If YES, was a complete course given within 7 days prior to delivery? 'Y' if bethamethasone [2 doses, 12 or 24 hours apart] or dexamethasone [4 doses, 6 hours apart] were given specifically to promote lung maturity and at least 12 hours from the second dose or 24 hours from the first dose has elapsed before delivery. If the time elapsed was less, this would be considered incomplete. Count only doses that occurred within one week prior to delivery. 12b. If YES, total number of courses given during this pregnancy? The number of complete courses the mother has received to accelerate pulmonary maturity (as defined above) during this pregnancy and prior to delivery. 13. Were tocolytics used during the admission resulting in this delivery? ‘Y’ if the mother received pharmacologic agents to control contractions and prevent preterm delivery. These agents include but are not limited to: Magnesium Compounds: Magnesium Sulfate, Magnesium Oxide, Magnesium glutamate Prostaglandin Synthesis Inhibitors: Indomethacin, aspirin, naproxen, fenoprofen Beta-sympathomimetic Agents: Beta adrenergic agonists: terbuline, ritodrine, isoxsuprine, hexoprenaline, fenoterol, orciprenaline, salbutamol Calcium Channel Blockers: Nifedipine, diltiazem, verapamil Other Tocolytics: Oxytocin antagonists, diazoxide, progestagens 14. Were antibiotics used during the admission resulting in this delivery? 'Y' if any antibiotics were used during the admission resulting in this delivery. 15. Final mode of delivery: As documented on labor/delivery sheet. The final mode of delivery, if unknown, recorded as vaginal vertex. .

  • Hexoprenaline: Β-Adrenoreceptor Selectivity in Isolated Tissues from the Guinea-Pig
    Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology (1975) 2, 541-547. Hexoprenaline: p-adrenoreceptor selectivity in isolated tissues from the guinea-pig Stella R. O’Donnell and Janet C. Wanstall Department of Physiology, University of Queenstand, Brisbane, Australia (Received 12 March 1975; revision received 22 April 1975) SUMMARY 1. A catecholamine P-adrenoreceptor agonist, hexoprenaline, was examined in vitro on five guinea-pig tissues and its potency relative to isoprenaline (as 100) obtained. 2. Hexoprenaline clearly delineated between those tissues classified as containing P,-adrenoreceptors (trachea, hind limb blood vessels and uterus; relative potencies 219, 110 and 76 respectively) and those classified as containing P,-adrenoreceptors (atria and ileum; relative potencies 3.3 and 1.0 respectively). 3. Hexoprenaline differed from some previously studied noncatecholamine P-adrenoreceptor agonists in being only two-fold less potent, relative to isoprena- line, as a vasodilator in perfused hind limb than as a tracheal relaxant. Key words : j3-adrenoreceptors, blood vessels, bronchodilators, guinea-pig, hexo- prenaline, selectivity, trachea. INTRODUCTION In a previous study using in vitro preparations from the guinea-pig, O’Donnell & Wanstall (1974a) examined potential sympathomimetic bronchodilator compounds for their potency as tracheal relaxants (p,-adrenoreceptors), atrial stimulants (P,-adrenoreceptors) and vasodilators in the perfused hind limb (p2-adrenoreceptors). Some resorcinolamines showed selectivity for trachea compared with not only atria but also blood vessels. There is some evidence in dogs in vivo that other noncatecholamines, namely carbuterol (Wardell et al., 1974), and salbutamol and terbutaline (Wasserman & Levy, 1974), display similar select- ivity. If selectivity between respiratory and vascular smooth muscle represents selectivity at the p-adrenoreceptor level, it poses the question whether the P1/p2subclassification (Lands et al., 1967a; Lands, Luduena & Buzzo, 1967b) is too rigid.

It is a chronic condition which affects the respiratory system and worsens over time. Cigarette smoking and advancing age are the two major risks associated with this disease. It is concerning that the global incidence of this chronic illness is on the rise. Current projections indicate that it will become the third leading cause of death by the year 2020. Inflammatory changes underlie the pathophysiology of COPD. Irreversible damage and progressive narrowing of the air passages follow. COPD is characterised by the progressive loss of lung function. In addition, the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease released the latest update on its global strategy for the diagnosis, management, and prevention of COPD in 2015. This article provides an overview of the causative risk factors, underlying disease process, pathophysiological changes, and the classification and management of COPD, including the latest perspectives on this highly prevalent condition. Keywords: chronic bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, COPD, emphysema, LABA, SABA, SAMA, LAMA, methylxanthines Introduction Aetiology and pathogenesis Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of death worldwide.

Overall summary of the scientific evaluation of terbutaline, salbutamol, hexoprenaline, ritodrine, fenoterol and isoxsuprine containing medicinal products by PRAC (see Annex I) On 27 November 2012, further to evaluation of data resulting from pharmacovigilance activities, Hungary informed the European Medicines Agency, pursuant to Article 31 of Directive 2001/83/EC, of their consideration that the risk-benefit balance of short-acting beta-agonists (SABAs) containing medicinal products authorised in obstetric indications has become unfavourable, taking into account the cardiovascular events reported. Hungary considered it was in the interest of the Union to refer the matter to the PRAC and expressed concerns with regards to the posology and warnings reflected in the product information. The short-acting beta-agonists (SABAs) (also known as beta-mimetics), salbutamol, terbutaline, fenoterol, ritodrine, hexoprenaline and isoxsuprine are all nationally authorised and have been on the market within the EU since the 1960s. Authorised obstetric indications for SABAs differ across Member States. The authorised obstetric indications include partus prematurus, tocolysis (for some products use is restricted to particular weeks of gestation but for others no specific gestation period is specified), external cephalic version (ECV), and hyper-uterine contractility.

EU Referral procedures for safety reasons: Urgent EU procedures and Other EU referral procedures (Items 2 and 3 of the PRAC agenda) A referral is a procedure used to resolve issues such as concerns over the safety or benefit-risk balance of a medicine or a class of medicines. In a referral, the EMA is requested to conduct a scientific assessment of a particular medicine or class of medicines on behalf of the European Union (EU). For further detailed information on safety-related referrals please see: http://www.ema.europa.eu/ema/index.jsp?curl=pages/regulation/general/general_content_000150.jsp&mid =WC0b01ac05800240d0 Signals assessment and prioritisation (Item 4 of the PRAC Minutes) A safety signal is information on a new or incompletely documented adverse event that is potentially caused by a medicine and that warrants further investigation. Signals are generated from several sources such as reports of adverse events from healthcare professionals or patients (so called spontaneous reports), clinical studies and the scientific literature. The evaluation of safety signals is a routine part of pharmacovigilance and is essential to ensuring that regulatory authorities have a comprehensive knowledge of a medicine’s benefits and risks. The presence of a safety signal does not mean that a medicine has caused the reported adverse event.

  • Drugs/Medications Known to Cause Hyperhidrosis Certain Prescriptions
    Drugs/Medications Known to Cause Hyperhidrosis Certain prescriptions and non-prescription medications can cause hyperhidrosis (excess perspiration or sweating) as a side effect. A list of potentially sweat-inducing medications is provided below. Medications are listed alphabetically by generic name. U.S. brand names are given in parentheses, if applicable. This list is provided as a resource and a service. It is not exhaustive and is in no way meant to replace consultation with a medical professional. Although sweating is a known side effect of the medications listed below, in most cases only a small percentage of people using the medicines experience undue sweating (in some cases less than 1%). Medications noted with an “*” and in bold are the most likely to cause sweating and the frequency of sweating as a side effect from these medications may be as high as 50%. Medications noted with an “†” are commonly-prescribed drugs; and those with a “P” are often used for pediatrics. Key: */Bold -- Known to commonly cause hyperhidrosis † -- Commonly-prescribed drugs P -- Pediatric use Abciximab (ReoPro®) Acamprosate (Campral®) Acetaminophen and Tramadol (Ultracet™) Acetophenazine (NA) Acetylcholine (Miochol-E®) P Acetylcysteine (Acetadote®) P Acitretin (Soriatane®) Acrivastine and Pseudoephedrine (Semprex®-D) † Acyclovir (Zovirax®) P Adenosine (Adenocard®; Adenoscan®) † Albuterol (Proventil® HFA Inhalation Aerosol) Alemtuzumab (Campath®) Alizapride (NA) Almotriptan (Axert™) Alosetron (Lotronex®) Amonafide (NA) Ambenonium (Mytelase®) Amitriptyline
