Although the efficacy of vitamin A supplementation has yet to be clearly confirmed, it is widely employed, at different dosages and schedules, in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). Since in Italy today no suitable formulation of vitamin A is available, the present observational study was designed to define the profile of plasma vitamin A and retinol-binding protein (RBP) concentrations in supplemented infants at risk for BPD admitted to seven Italian NICU. Twelve babies (average 27 weeks of gestation, birth weight 1,008 g), supplemented with vitamin A, were observed with sequential measurements of retinol and RBP up to 28 days of age. At birth retinol and RBP plasma concentrations were both adequate in the infants and half their mothers' levels. During supplementation the levels rose with wide variability according to the differences in dosing and timing in the different units. Plasma levels of retinol and RBP were the same in infants who had BPD and those who did not. A routine standardized therapeutic approach using vitamin A supplementation in Italian NICU will be more than welcome.</p>","PeriodicalId":11160,"journal":{"name":"Developmental pharmacology and therapeutics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000457555","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18826978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To test whether bias exists against clinical studies, we compared the acceptance rate of clinical vs. basic studies dealing with drugs and therapeutics in children, which were submitted to a large scientific meeting. Of 197 abstracts reporting on drug/therapeutic studies, submitted to the Society for Pediatric Research in 1993, there were 133 clinical and 64 basic studies. Fifty-nine (44.3%) of the clinical studies were accepted, significantly less than the basic projects (n = 47 or 73.4%, p < 0.0001). A basic paper was 66% more likely to be accepted (95% CI 50.7-82.6%). This trend was consistent for different groups of drugs/therapeutics, including analgesics, surfactants, corticosteroids, vaccines, hormones, and antiasthmatics. To examine whether the lower rate of acceptance of clinical papers is the result of lower scientific standard, all papers were scored for their quality by raters who were blinded to their acceptance or rejection status. In general, rejected clinical papers scored significantly higher than rejected basic papers (16 +/- 1.8 vs. 14.8 +/- 1.0, p < 0.05).

Standard microelectrode techniques were used in isolated young and adult canine Purkinje fibers to determine the effect of simulated ischemia ([K+]o = 10 mM, pH 6.7, pO2 < 25 mm Hg) alone or with adrenergic stimulation on the rhythmic activity in spontaneously beating Purkinje fibers and on transmembrane potentials and delayed afterdepolarizations in paced Purkinje fibers (basic cycle length = 800-300 ms). The adrenergic agonists used were phenylephrine (5 x 10(-8) M) and isoproterenol (1 x 10(-6) M). For all automatic fibers studied, the control maximum diastolic potential in adults (-96 +/- 1 mV, n = 37) and in the young (-98 +/- 1 mV, n = 36) went to -62 +/- 1 mV during ischemia in both groups and returned to -96 +/- 2 mV with reperfusion. The incidence of rhythmic activity (expressed as percent) during ischemia alone was similar at both ages: adults, 22%; young, 25%. The incidence of ectopic activity with phenylephrine superfusion during ischemia for adults was 63%, an effect blocked by prazosin (1 x 10(-6) M) but not by propranolol (2 x 10(-7) M); the incidence for the young was 25%. Isoproterenol caused ectopic rhythms in 86% of young fibers and 17% of adult fibers (p < 0.05 young vs. adult). During reperfusion the return to control rhythm was slower in adults after ischemia alone or ischemia + alpha-adrenergic stimulation with phenylephrine. There were no age-related differences in the transmembrane potential response of paced fibers to ischemia or reperfusion, and there were no delayed afterdepolarizations with interruption of pacing at 800, 500, or 300 ms in either group. These data suggest that age-related differences in adrenergic responses alter the cellular response to an ischemic insult. To the extent that an ectopic beat may initiate an abnormal rhythm, these differences in sensitivity to adrenergic agonists may lead to developmental differences in arrhythmogenic potential during ischemia.</p>","PeriodicalId":11160,"journal":{"name":"Developmental pharmacology and therapeutics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000457543","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18921690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 32 neonates were given amikacin by intramuscular route. A total of 121 concentrations were measured (average number of concentrations per patient = 3.8; range 3-6). To estimate amikacin pharmacokinetic parameters, the serum concentration values of the drug were fitted to the one-compartment pharmacokinetic model.
