Clinical Response and Cost-Savings Associated With Generic Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterol Multidose, Dry-Powder Inhaler in Asthma Patients Managed in an Ambulatory Care Practice Setting.

Background: Fluticasone propionate/salmeterol multidose, dry powder inhaler (MDPI) was the first and only authorized generic inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting beta agonist (ICS/LABA) combination inhaler at the time of this study. This offers the potential for significant prescription cost-savings for both patients and accountable care organizations. The objective of the study was to demonstrate patients' clinical response to generic fluticasone propionate/salmeterol MDPI when switched from one of its brand name competitors.

Effect of a Remotely Delivered Tailored Multicomponent Approach to Enhance Medication Taking for Patients With Hyperlipidemia, Hypertension, and Diabetes: The STIC2IT Cluster Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Approximately half of patients with chronic conditions are nonadherent to prescribed medications, and interventions have been only modestly effective.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of a remotely delivered multicomponent behaviorally tailored intervention on adherence to medications for hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes.

Design, Setting, And Participants: Two-arm pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial at a multispecialty group practice including participants 18 to 85 years old with suboptimal hyperlipidemia, hypertension, or diabetes disease control, and who were nonadherent to prescribed medications for these conditions.

Rationale and design of the Study of a Tele-pharmacy Intervention for Chronic diseases to Improve Treatment adherence (STIC2IT): A cluster-randomized pragmatic trial.

Background: Approximately half of patients with chronic cardiometabolic conditions are nonadherent with their prescribed medications. Interventions to improve adherence have been only modestly effective because they often address single barriers to adherence, intervene at single points in time, or are imprecisely targeted to patients who may not need adherence assistance.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of a multicomponent, behaviorally tailored pharmacist-based intervention to improve adherence to medications for diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia.

[Histochemical study on the mucosubstances of the calculi of the main excretory duct of the human submandibular gland].

The consideration that mucosubstances act as sites of nucleation and salivary calculi growth prompted to this investigation. Nine calculi of the main excretory duct of the submandibular gland were decalcified and routinely embedded in paraffin. From the blocks serial sections were cut and stained with haematoxylin and eosin and the subsequent histochemical methods for mucosubstances.
