Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers analyzed data from 129 COVID-19 patients and found that factors like creatinine clearance and body weight significantly impacted the drug's efficacy and absorption.
  • * A one-compartment model was established, and a web-based dashboard was created to help healthcare providers customize dosing for patients based on their individual needs.

Article Synopsis
  • Roxadustat is an oral medication used to treat renal anemia, but its pharmacokinetics (how the drug moves in the body) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) with early posttransplant anemia (PTA) had not been previously studied.
  • A population pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted with data from 52 Chinese KTRs, identifying factors like body weight and bilirubin levels that affect the drug’s clearance from the body.
  • The study successfully developed a dosing regimen for roxadustat, recommending it at 100 mg three times a week for most KTRs, with adjustments based on individual body weight and bilirubin levels.

Introduction: Quetiapine exhibits notable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) variability, the origins of which are poorly understood. This systematic review summarizes published population PK/PD studies and identifies significant covariates accounting for this variability to inform precision dosing.

Methods: We systematically searched the PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases and compared study characteristics, model parameters, and covariate effects.

Oral contraceptives (OCs), insulin sensitizers, and antiandrogens (AAs), alone or in combination, are commonly used for treating non-fertility indications in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, unclear risk-benefit profiles jeopardize their appropriate clinical applications. This study aimed to quantitatively evaluate the effects of the aforementioned medications and to compare their risk-benefit profiles.

Background And Objective: Currently, the detection rates of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCoNS) in the blood cultures of neonates with sepsis exceed the national average drug resistance level, and vancomycin and linezolid are the primary antibacterial drugs used for these resistant bacteria according to the results of etiological examinations. However, a comprehensive evaluation of their costs and benefits in late-onset neonatal sepsis in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) has not been conducted.

Introduction: Olanzapine is widely used for treating schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder. Due to its high pharmacokinetic variability, several population pharmacokinetic studies have been performed to identify factors contributing to the variability and thus facilitate individualized dosing. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of published population pharmacokinetic studies and explore potential covariates.
