Background: Prevalence of potential drug-drug interactions (pDDIs) in adult patients with severe asthma on biological therapy and their clinical significance have not been fully addressed, thus the aim of this study was to investigate them.
Methods: In this retrospective observational study, patients who were diagnosed with severe asthma and to whom biological therapy was prescribed between September 2015 and December 2020, were enrolled. The study was conducted at the Department of Allergic and Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases, Clinic for Lung Diseases Jordanovac, Clinical Hospital Center Zagreb.

Objective: To determine if higher serum exposure during subcutaneous (SC) abatacept treatment was associated with an increased infection risk in adult patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: Data from AVERT-2 (Assessing Very Early Rheumatoid arthritis Treatment-2, NCT02504268), a randomized, placebo-controlled study in anticitrullinated protein antibody- positive patients with early RA, were analyzed. A post hoc population pharmacokinetic (PPK) analysis was performed.

Purpose: In heart failure (HF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) populations, sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is associated with impaired health outcomes. We evaluated whether in patients with HF, concomitant HF and COPD or COPD, the number of hospitalizations would be reduced in the year after testing for SDB with and without treatment initiation compared to the year before.
Methods: We performed a multicentre retrospective study of 390 consecutive sleep-clinic patients who had a primary diagnosis of chronic HF, HF and COPD or COPD and a secondary diagnosis of SDB.
