Medication Hazards and Outcome Patterns of Pediatric Drug-Associated Liver Injury in Taiwan: An Analysis of 1998-2017 Spontaneous Adverse Drug Reaction Reports.
Drugs Real World Outcomes
January 2025
School of Pharmacy, College of Medicine, National Taiwan University, Taipei, 100025, Taiwan.
Background And Objectives: Accumulating pediatric efficacy and safety data on drug use is inherently challenging yet essential. This study aimed to analyze the frequency and compute the odds of pediatric drug-associated liver injury across age groups (early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence) and therapeutic categories using adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reporting data spanning nearly two decades.
Methods: We analyzed the reports of suspected ADRs occurring in children and adolescents in the Taiwan National Adverse Drug Reaction Reporting System during the period from May 1998 until July 2017.

Evaluation of methotrexate Pharmacogenomic variation to predict acute neurotoxicity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Pharmacotherapy
December 2024
Texas Children's Cancer and Hematology Centers, Houston, Texas, USA.
Background: Methotrexate is an important component of curative therapy in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but the role of genetic variation influencing methotrexate clearance and transport in toxicity susceptibility in children with ALL is not well established. Therefore, we evaluated the association between suspected methotrexate pharmacogenomic variants and methotrexate-related neurotoxicity.
Methods: This study included children (aged 2-20 years) diagnosed with ALL (2005-2019) at six treatment centers in the southwest United States.
Racial disparities in length of hospitalization and systemic medication utilization in patients with psoriasis.
Arch Dermatol Res
December 2024
University of Arizona College of Medicine-Phoenix, Phoenix, AZ, USA.
The growing evidence of chronic inflammation and sequelae caused by psoriasis indicates the need for systemic treatment, including biologics and conventional treatments like methotrexate. However, unconscious racial bias may lead to discrepancies in systemic medication prescription. Racial identity is also suspected to affect comorbidity and hospitalization rates in patients with psoriasis.
