To investigate the pharmacokinetics of theophylline in the presence of pyrexia, patients were divided into two groups based on body temperature: a pyrexia group (> or = 38 degrees C) and a non-pyrexia group (< 38 degrees C).

In all age groups, theophylline clearance of the pyrexia group was significantly less than that of the non-pyrexia group (p < 0.01), showing that there was a significant pharmacokinetic difference in theophylline clearance between the groups. Multivariate statistical analysis showed that theophylline clearance was affected by pyrexia and age. This study showed that the presence of pyrexia decreases theophylline clearance, and that it affects theophylline clearance in an age-dependent manner.

We examined the associations between the blood levels of these adipocytokines and the lumbar spine (L2-L4), left femoral, and distal forearm BMD after adjustment for the age and body fat percentage. No correlation was observed between leptin and the BMD. This is presumably due to the fact that the influence of menopause, age, duration of postmenopausal period, and body fat percentage on the BMD is greater than that of leptin levels in healthy women. The adiponectin levels were significantly correlated negatively with the lumbar spine and femoral BMD in premenopausal women, and with forearm BMD in postmenopausal women, regardless of adjustment for age and body fat percentage.
