DPYD, TYMS, and MTHFR play a limited role for FU related toxicity but a pronounced DPYD gene/sex-interaction increases prediction rate for male patients. Toxicity risk assessment should include sex, mode of administration, and folinic acid as additional predictive factors.
The authors hypothesize that the A118G single nucleotide polymorphism of the mu-opioid-receptor is among the protective factors against M6G-related opioid toxicity. The observation encourages the search for pharmacogenetic reasons that cause interindividual variability of the clinical effects of morphine.
Age and CYP2C9 genotype do not significantly affect the steady-state disposition of celecoxib and diclofenac. This would indicate that both drugs need no dosage reduction in the elderly (at least up to 75 years) and that, besides CYP2C9, additional CYP species contribute to the elimination of both agents.
Twelve-month results show that patency was maintained longer after Ranger DCB treatment than after conventional balloon angioplasty, and this result was associated with a low revascularization rate and good clinical outcomes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
