Detailed data on safety associated with drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between Linezolid (LZD) and other antibiotics are limited. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety signals related to these DDIs and to provide a reference for clinically related adverse drug event monitoring. Adverse event (AE) information from 1 January 2004 to 16 June 2022 of the target antibiotics including LZD using alone or in combination with LZD was extracted from the OpenVigil FDA data platform for safety signal analysis.

This study aimed to evaluate the association between LZD exposure and clinical safety and efficacy in Chinese pediatric patients. This retrospective cross-sectional study included patients ≤18 years of age who received ≥3 days of LZD treatment between 31 January 2015, and 31 December 2020.

A retrospective review of the medical records of 499 patients diagnosed with cancer admitted between January 1 and December 31, 2017, was performed. First, the Global Trigger Tool (GTT) was used to actively monitor adverse drug events (ADEs) and SAEs caused by antineoplastic drugs and take the number of positive triggers as an intermediate variable.

Background: Although discontinuation is common in clinical trials, no study has been conducted to analyse the current situation and reasons for the suspension or discontinuation of drug clinical trials in China. This study aims to analyse the general characteristics and reasons for the discontinuation of registered clinical trials in mainland China and to identify the associated factors.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional observational study of discontinued trials registered in the Drug Trial Registration and Information Publication Platform before March 31, 2020.
We aimed to estimate the risk of varied antifungal therapy with azoles causing the syndrome of acquired apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME) in real-world practice. First, we conducted a disproportionality analysis based on data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to characterize the signal differences of triazoles-related AME. Second, a systematic review was conducted, and clinical features of AME cases reported in clinical practice were described.

The signal was detected by the methods of Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN) and Multi-item Gamma Poisson Shrinker (MGPS). When both methods detected a positive result, a signal was generated.

The aim of this study was to analyze the characteristics of DILI patients in a large tertiary teaching hospital at Chongqing, a municipality in western China. MATERIAL AND METHODS The medical records of hospitalized patients which diagnosed with DILI between January 2011 and December 2016 were searched retrospectively, and demographic, clinical data, and laboratory data were retrieved for analysis.

Understanding both the ICI-associated adverse events (AEs) and the possible rank-order of these drugs in terms of susceptibility is essential if we are to improve the curative effect and reduce toxicity.
Methods: We detected signals of the AEs of ICIs by data mining using the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) AEs Reporting System (FAERS) database.
Understanding the epidemiology and risk factors of adverse drug events (ADEs) in pediatric inpatient is essential if we are to prevent, reduce or ameliorate the harm experienced. The Global Trigger Tool (GTT) is a method of retrospective medical record review that measures harm in hospitalized children. We employed a three-stage retrospective chart review of random samples of 1800 pediatric inpatients discharged from January 2013 to December 2015.

The purpose of this study was to develop a PPK model for effective dosing of vancomycin in Chinese neonates and young infants. The PPK modelling tool Phoenix NLME was use to assess demographic and routine clinical pharmacokinetic (PK) data retrospectively collected for patients admitted to Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between 2011 and 2016.

Objective: To investigate the clinical features of acute poisoning in hospitalized children.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 586 hospitalized children who were diagnosed with poisoning and discharged from the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between January 2006 and December 2015.
Results: The patients included 354 males and 232 females (age: 24 days to 15.

A set of spectrum diagnostic system was established. With this system, spectrum analysis was carried out for the plume signal of enhanced arcjet thrust using catalytic decomposition products of hydrazine as propellant. Excitation plume temperatures for various wavelengths were obtained through measuring spectral radiation intensity.

This paper presents a novel basis function, called spherical piecewise constant basis function (SPCBF), for precomputed radiance transfer. SPCBFs have several desirable properties: rotatability, ability to represent all-frequency signals, and support for efficient multiple product. By smartly partitioning the illumination sphere into a set of subregions, and associating each subregion with an SPCBF valued 1 inside the region and 0 elsewhere, we precompute the light coefficients using the resulting SPCBFs.
