Department of Pharmacy, Hokkaido University Hospital, Kita 14, Nishi 5, Kita-ku, Sapporo 060-8648, Japan.
Using a large health insurance database in Japan, we examined the real-world usage of budesonide enteric-coated capsules (BUD) in treating Crohn's disease. We analyzed data from the Japan Medical Data Center claims database for Crohn's disease patients prescribed BUD from April 2016 to March 2021, focusing on prescription status, adverse events (AEs), monitoring tests, and concomitant medications over 2 years following BUD initiation. Patients were categorized into two groups based on BUD usage duration: ≤1 year and >1 year.

January 2025
Internal Medicine Department, Centro Hospitalar e Universitário São João, Portugal; Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine of University of Porto, Portugal. Electronic address:
Background: Prognostic prediction in heart failure (HF) is challenging and no single marker has proven effective. We propose an index based on B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and four widely available parameters.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed adult outpatients with chronic HF with systolic dysfunction followed from January 2012 to December 2020.
Extremophilic hemoglobins: The structure of Shewanella benthica truncated hemoglobin N.
J Biol Chem
January 2025
T.C. Jenkins Department of Biophysics, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland, 21218, USA. Electronic address:
Truncated hemoglobins (TrHbs) have an ancient origin and are widely distributed in microorganisms where they often serve roles other than dioxygen transport and storage. In extremophiles, these small heme proteins must have features that secure function under challenging conditions: at minimum, they must be folded, retain the heme group, allow substrates to access the heme cavity, and maintain their quaternary structure if present and essential. The genome of the obligate psychropiezophile Shewanella benthica strain KT99 harbors a gene for a TrHb belonging to a little-studied clade of globins (subgroup 2 of group N).
