CYP2D6‐Guided Opioid Therapy for Chronic Pain: A Multi‐Center Pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The analgesic effectiveness of several opioids depends on CYP2D6‐mediated metabolism to more active opioid receptor agonists. CYP2D6 activity is impacted by genetic variability and medications that inhibit CYP2D6. We conducted a pragmatic, multi‐center, randomized, controlled trial to determine whether CYP2D6‐guided opioid prescribing improves chronic ...

Thresholds: The metaphorical foundations of powerful knowledge

The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper advances a theoretical account of threshold concepts as metaphorical‐relational structures that reorganise meaning across contexts. Building on conceptual metaphor theory, we propose that threshold concepts can be understood as sites of schema‐level reorganisation: deep, embodied patterns of relational logic that scaffold abstract ...

Epigenetic Predictors of Smoking: External Validation and Association With Smoking‐Related Cancer Risk

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tobacco smoking has a strong influence on DNA methylation (DNAm), enabling the development of DNAm‐based smoking predictors, yet external evaluations of these have remained limited. We aimed to assess six DNAm‐based smoking predictors in a large sample of middle‐aged and older Australians for (i) their accuracy and reliability, and (ii) their ...

Real‐World Effectiveness and Safety of Topical Ruxolitinib in Adolescents With Vitiligo: A 52‐Week Retrospective Study

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Topical ruxolitinib 1.5% cream was assessed in 39 adolescents with non‐segmental vitiligo. Median T‐VASI fell at week 24 (n = 34) and week 52 (n = 18), with repigmentation most pronounced on the face: 55.6% reached F‐VASI50 at week 52. Few adverse events were recorded, all mild application‐site reactions in 4 of 39 patients.
