A Drug Utilization Evaluation of Bronchodilators Using a Defined Daily Dose Method

International Journal For Multidisciplinary Research, 2023
Drug therapy is crucial to promoting human health by increasing quality of life and extending lifespan. A method to assess and improve drug use is by conducting Drug Utilization Study. Drug utilization, in terms of DDD, aids in converting the available volume of medications into medically relevant units, allowing estimations of the number of people ...

Trends in Antimicrobial Consumption in Tertiary Care Hospitals in Costa Rica from 2017 to 2021: A Comparative Analysis of Defined Daily Doses per 100 Bed Days and per 100 Discharges

Antibiotics
Background: Antimicrobial consumption (AMC) data in Latin America are scarce and usually spread out across different sources used to make AMC calculations, making it difficult to both standardize and compare regions through similar time frames.

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Developing Canadian Defined Daily Doses for Animals: A Metric to Quantify Antimicrobial Use [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
Antimicrobial use surveillance data need to be analyzed and reported in a standardized and harmonized way. In veterinary medicine, one approach is to use defined daily doses (DDD) for animals. DDD for animals are technical standards used in various measures or metrics that quantify antimicrobial use.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

ON THE AUTOMORPHISMS OF THE NONSPLIT CARTAN MODULAR CURVES OF PRIME LEVEL [PDF]

, 2016
We study the automorphisms of the nonsplit Cartan modular curves Xns(p) of prime level p. We prove that if p ≥ 29 all the automorphisms preserve the cusps.
