The tacrolimus concentration‐to‐dose ratio is associated with kidney function in heart transplant recipients

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Heart transplantation (HT) is frequently complicated by chronic kidney disease, of which tacrolimus‐related nephrotoxicity is an important cause. In kidney and liver transplant recipients, fast tacrolimus metabolism (defined as a low concentration‐to‐dose [C0/D] ratio), negatively affects kidney function.

A One Dimensional (1D) Computational Fluid Dynamics Study of Fontan-Associated Liver Disease (FALD) [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Fontan-Associated Liver Disease (FALD) is a disorder arising from hemodynamic changes and venous congestion in the liver. This disease is prominent in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Although HLHS patients typically survive into adulthood, they have reduced cardiac output due to their univentricular physiology (i.e., a Fontan ...

Population pharmacokinetic modelling of prednisolone in systemic lupus erythematosus patients: Analysis of exposure and disease activity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Prednisone is a widely used glucocorticoid in the treatment of lupus, although its dosing is often determined empirically. Prednisolone, the active metabolite of prednisone, is found in its free form in the serum. The goal of this study was to develop a population pharmacokinetic model in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...
