Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of a Cinnamon Product on CYP2A6 Substrate Drugs: Application of a Novel Tool Involving the Nicotine Metabolite Ratio

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Cinnamon (Cinnamomum spp.) is used as a culinary spice and dietary supplement. A major constituent, cinnamaldehyde, was previously shown to inactivate cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2A6 in vitro. A mechanistic static model predicted an ~5‐fold increase in the AUC of the CYP2A6 substrates nicotine and letrozole.

Population Pharmacokinetics of Ticagrelor during Veno‐Arterial ECMO in Acute Coronary Syndrome: Model‐Informed Dosing Simulations

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Although patients with acute coronary syndrome supported by veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) have a high risk of thrombosis and bleeding, antiplatelet pharmacology in this setting is not well defined. This prospective observational study investigated the population pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor and its active metabolite AR ...

Decolonization potential of 0.02% polyhexanide irrigation solution in urethral catheters under practice-like in vitro conditions

BMC Urology, 2018
Background Long-term use of indwelling urethral catheters is associated with high risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) and blockage, which may in turn cause significant morbidity and reduce the life of the catheter.

Microbiome signatures in neonatal central line associated bloodstream infections.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Neonates are at high risk for central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI). Biofilm formation is universal on indwelling catheters but why some biofilms seed the bloodstream to cause CLABSI is not clearly understood. With the objective to test
