Abstract
Purpose: The shape and position of the hemoglobin-oxygen dissociation curve (ODC) is of critical importance in medicine, as it determines the uptake of O2 in the lungs and the delivery of O2 to the tissues. Numerous reports have identified affinity-modulating effects of drugs in humans. Such effects may be relevant to conditions such as pulmonary diffusion disorders, peripheral vascular disease, or coronary artery disease. The aim of this scoping review was to assess and summarize the current evidence on these effects.
Methods: The review was based on the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. We searched PubMed and the Cochrane Library and only included papers with free full-text access. The search covers all papers published before September 2024 and used the following keywords: "Oxygen affinity" or "oxygen dissociation curve" in combination with > 100 substance classes that should cover most drugs in clinical use.
Results: The search returned 2447 hits of which 80 were selected for further full text review. In terms of discipline, cardiology accounted for the largest proportion, and in terms of effect quality, a right-ward shift resulting in improved tissue oxygenation was most common. For example, quantitative data show an increase in P50 of 6.1-12.4% and 25-53% for propranolol and RSR13, respectively.
Conclusion: Despite a substantial body of data, the effects of the vast majority of drugs on the ODC have not been studied or have not been studied in sufficient detail. The undeniable potential for medical interventions to alter the ODC calls for revival of this area of research.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology publishes original papers on all aspects of clinical pharmacology and drug therapy in humans. Manuscripts are welcomed on the following topics: therapeutic trials, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenetics, drug metabolism, adverse drug reactions, drug interactions, all aspects of drug development, development relating to teaching in clinical pharmacology, pharmacoepidemiology, and matters relating to the rational prescribing and safe use of drugs. Methodological contributions relevant to these topics are also welcomed.
Data from animal experiments are accepted only in the context of original data in man reported in the same paper. EJCP will only consider manuscripts describing the frequency of allelic variants in different populations if this information is linked to functional data or new interesting variants. Highly relevant differences in frequency with a major impact in drug therapy for the respective population may be submitted as a letter to the editor.
Straightforward phase I pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic studies as parts of new drug development will only be considered for publication if the paper involves
-a compound that is interesting and new in some basic or fundamental way, or
-methods that are original in some basic sense, or
-a highly unexpected outcome, or
-conclusions that are scientifically novel in some basic or fundamental sense.
