Independent retail pharmacies are required to have a technical manager responsible for the operation and adverse drug event reporting. In this context the following investigation is developed based on one objective: To establish factors related to the technical management and adverse drug event reporting in independent retail pharmacies in Cali. This is a cross-sectional observational study. Data was randomly collected from an estimated sample of 244 independent retail pharmacies. The results show that storage was the area of greatest implementation, 94% of the assessed pharmacies had a technical manager and 50% of them reported adverse drug events. A technical manager, being a chemist, pharmacist, or pharmacy manager, was associated with having computer equipment and dispensing homeopathic products. Adverse drug event reporting was directly associated with having bibliographic resources and inversely associated with the technical manager being a drug retailer. These data show the factors related to technical management of independent retail pharmacies and adverse drug event reporting were identified.

Background: Abelacimab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to the inactive form of factor XI and blocks its activation. The safety of abelacimab as compared with a direct oral anticoagulant in patients with atrial fibrillation is unknown.
Methods: Patients with atrial fibrillation and a moderate-to-high risk of stroke were randomly assigned, in a 1:1:1 ratio, to receive subcutaneous injection of abelacimab (150 mg or 90 mg once monthly) administered in a blinded fashion or oral rivaroxaban (20 mg once daily) administered in an open-label fashion.
Intraoperative Tranexamic Acid Infusion Reduces Perioperative Blood Loss in Pediatric Limb-Salvage Surgeries: A Double-Blinded Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial.

National Cancer Institute, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.
Background: Limb-salvage surgery for malignant bone tumors can be associated with considerable perioperative blood loss. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to assess the safety and efficacy of the intraoperative infusion of tranexamic acid (TXA) in children and adolescents undergoing limb-salvage surgery.
Methods: All participants were <18 years of age at the time of surgery and diagnosed with a malignant bone tumor of the femur that was treated with resection and reconstruction with a megaprosthesis.

Background: Francisella tularensis is an aerobic, gram negative coccobacillus bacterium that causes tularemia. F. tularensis spreads primarily through ticks, biting flies, droplet inhalation, contaminated mud or water, or infected animal bites, and it can survive in animal carcasses with the most common mode of transmission occurring via inoculation into the skin and inhalation/ingestion.

Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors, such as enavogliflozin, offer promising metabolic benefits for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), including glycemic control and improved cardiac function. Despite the clinical evidence, real-world evidence is needed to validate their safety and effectiveness. This study aims to evaluate the effects of weight loss and safety of enavogliflozin administration in patients with T2D in a real-world clinical setting over 24 weeks.

Background: Risk factors and comorbidities can complicate management of non-valvular atrial fibrillation. We describe and compare real-world safety and effectiveness of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs; apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran) and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in subgroups of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation at high risk for gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, utilizing data from a national quasi-exhaustive French database.
Methods: Anticoagulant-naïve adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation with ≥1 gastrointestinal bleeding risk factor, initiating anticoagulant treatment January 2016-December 2019, and covered by the French national health data system were eligible.
