Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Risk of injury associated with the sedative potential of second‐generation antihistamines: A nationwide retrospective cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Individual second‐generation antihistamines may possess differential sedative potential due to the variability in central histamine receptor H1 occupancy. This study aimed to evaluate whether the sedative potential of second‐generation antihistamines is associated with the risk of injury during Japan's pollen season. Methods We conducted a

Therapeutic drug monitoring of antimicrobials in a paediatric setting: A retrospective single‐centre study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Paediatric pharmacokinetics differ significantly from adults due to age‐related physiological changes, necessitating precise dose adjustments. However, data on therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) implementation in paediatric setting remain limited.

Effect of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents on blood pressure in pre-dialysis patients. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
IntroductionErythropoiesis-Stimulating Agents (ESA) are hypothesized to increase cardiovascular mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease. One of the proposed mechanisms is the elevation of blood pressure (BP) by ESA.

The One‐Step Synthesis of Biologically Active Isochromans from Lignin‐Derived Aromatic Monomers in Tunable Deep Eutectic Solvents

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A straightforward one‐step protocol enables the synthesis of bio‐based and biologically active isochromans through the Oxa‐Pictet cyclization involving diverse aldehydes, including vanillin in combination with lignin‐derivable homovanillyl alcohol, a prominent aromatic platform chemical obtainable via diol‐assisted fractionation of lignocellulose ...
