Advanced prostate cancer not responding to hormone treatment - used in combination with steroids. Acute myelogenous leukemia Aml ; Breast cancer Non- Hodgkin's lymphoma. Prescription weight-loss drugs– which include phentermine sold as adipex-p and other brand names ; , sibutramine meridia ; and orlistat xenical ; – can temporarily manipulate some of these factors. Observed in the case of HPL inhibition by Exnical pellets and micronized Orlistat powder Fig. 4, B and E, respectively ; , but the rate of HPL inhibition was found to be slower than that of HGL. The half-inhibition times were found to be 5 min with HPL and 1 min with HGL. With the liquid meal, the level of gastric lipolysis was drastically reduced in the presence of the lipase inhibitor Fig. 4C; Table 5 ; . At min, the lipolysis level was reduced to 7% of control values by Xenial pellets and to 0% by micronized Orlistat powder. The level of duodenal lipolysis also decreased in the presence of the lipase inhibitor but less than the level of gastric lipolysis. At t 35 min, the lipolysis levels were 31.9 4.2% with Xebical pellets 41% of controls ; and 10.3 5.2% with micronized Orlistat powder 13% of controls ; . At t min, the lipolysis levels were 61.3 2.7% with Xenlcal pellets 69% of controls ; and 50.8 5.7% with micronized Orlistat powder 57% of controls ; . A significant level of lipolysis of the liquid meal TGs was, in fact, reached before HPL was significantly inhibited by Orlistat. A good correlation was observed between the variation in the level of lipolysis Fig. 4C ; and the variation in the residual HPL activity Fig. 4B ; . With the solid meal, both gastric and duodenal lipolysis were drastically reduced in the presence of Orlistat Fig. 4F; Table 5 ; . Effects of Orlistat on in vitro lipolysis of test meals incubated with pure HGL and HPL. In vitro experiments with and without micronized Orlistat powder were also performed with purified lipases instead of digestive juices Fig. 5 ; . No significant differences were observed between the values obtained with the juices and those obtained with the purified lipases Table 5. Outlook Roche expects its pharmaceutical sales to accelerate in the second half of 2001. The Pharmaceuticals Division has innovative products for major therapeutic areas such as oncology, virology and transplantation medicine. Additionally, Roche acquired the global rights last year to Kytril, a medicine used in oncology. The market for Cenical will be steadily developed further. In 2000 Roche received six approvals in the European Union, four in the United States and three in Japan for new products and indications. In addition, Roche submitted more than ten regulatory applications in key markets, including an application for Pegasys in hepatitis C. Other new pharmaceuticals, such as ibandronate for osteoporosis and the HIV fusion inhibitor T-20, are in advanced-stage development. The outlook for the Diagnostics Division this year is also good. At every stage of healthcare delivery -- from identifying disease predisposition to monitoring treatment responses -- diagnostic tools are an increasingly important factor in achieving cost-effective therapy outcomes that address the causes of disease. Roche expects divisional sales to continue to show double-digit growth. With new products coming to market, leading-edge competencies in research and production and an expanding global presence, particularly in the emerging markets of Asia and Latin America, the Vitamins and Fine Chemicals Division is ideally equipped to maintain its leadership in a competitive global market. Roche anticipates positive sales growth for the division in 2001. Proposals to the Annual General Meeting At the Annual General Meeting Roche's Board of Directors will propose that the dividend be increased for the fourteenth consecutive year, from 100 to 115 Swiss francs per bearer share and non-voting equity security. The Board will seek approval of a 100-for-one split of Roche's shares and non-voting equity securities. Additionally, it will propose that the term of office for members of the Board be shortened from six to four years. Prof. Kurt Jenny will step down from the Board of Directors at the Annual General Meeting on 3 April 2001. For reasons of age, Prof. Charles Weissmann has declined to stand for another term on the Board. The Board will request the reelection of Franz B. Humer. In addition, businessman and National Councillor Walter Frey and John Irving Bell, Nuffield Professor of Clinical Medicine at Oxford University, will be nominated for election to the Board. Roche's Annual Report for 2000 and the presentations for the Annual Media Conference in Basel will be available at : roche from 7: 30 CET and 9: 00 CET, respectively. The Media Conference will be webcast on the Internet in English and German starting at 10: 00 CET. All trademarks used or mentioned in this release are legally protected.

A talking tree believed to possess healing powers is attracting thousands of worshippers every day. The 50-year-old mahua tree, in an orchard on the outskirts of New Delhi, was discovered by a middle-aged man about two weeks ago and a rumour began that the tree could communicate with people and exorcise evil spirits. Since then, up to 5, 000 pilgrims a day have flocked to the tree, many of them pressing their ears against the trunk. The crowds are causing a headache for police and angry orchard owner Swaroop Singh, who says there is no question of his tree talking. "Someone has been fooling these gullible people, " he said. Sceptics believe the rumour was spread by local traders eager to cash in on the crush of worshippers, some of whom travel from miles away to seek cures for diseases such as dengue fever, which is still raging in and around New Delhi. Stalls selling incense, prasad or holy food, flowers and trinkets have sprung up around the six-hectare guava and mango orchard to cater for pilgrims curious to witness for themselves the tree's powers. Certain species of tree, such as the banyan, are held to be sacred by the majority of the Hindu population, but the mahua is not normally considered auspicious. "If you believe strongly enough, you will hear what you want to, " said Dev Kumar, a merchant from nearby Karol Bagh. The talking tree has been burned by incense sticks and has had its bark stripped by overzealous pilgrims wanting to take a souvenir back to their families. A makeshift shrine has been built at the base of the tree. SCMP 1 11 96.

Sugar alcohols are only partially absorbed from the human small intestine. The percentage absorbed varies with each sugar alcohol and in some cases with the presence of food. It has also been shown that if absorbed, sugar alcohols are not fully metabolized. As such they are excreted in to the urine. For the sugar alcohol not absorbed in the small bowel, they are fermented by colonic bacteria to produce short chain fatty acids. These short chain fatty acids are absorbed and provide energy to the body. In this way, lactitol, which is completely malabsorbed in humans, produces 2 kcal g. Because of these fermentation by-products, the consumption of large amounts of sugar alcohols can lead to temporary abdominal discomfort such as bloating and diarrhea. The symptoms depend upon an individual's sensitivity and other foods eaten at the same time. Most people will adapt after a few days in a manner similar to that seen with high fiber foods ; . Eating less than 10 grams of sugar alcohols is a conservative recommendation representing a level unlikely to cause problems for the vast majority of people. The size of a person is believed to be more important than age or health status in determining the laxation threshold. The laxation threshold is the amount of sweetener taken before abdominal discomfort appears. If your clients are taking medicines that block fat e.g. orlistat or Xenical ; or sugar acarbose or Prandase ; , they may get severe abdominal discomfort if they eat foods with sugar alcohols.

Table of Contents We expect intense competition in the obesity marketplace for Contrave and Empatic, and new products may emerge that provide different or better therapeutic alternatives for obesity and weight loss. If approved and commercialized, both Contrave and Empatic will compete with well established prescription drugs for the treatment of obesity, including Xenical orlistat ; , marketed by Roche Laboratories Inc., and Meridia sibutramine ; , marketed by Abbott Laboratories. Orlistat has also been launched by GlaxoSmithKline in over-thecounter form under the brand name alli, which represents additional competition and potential negative pricing pressure. Both orlistat and sibutramine are marketed by pharmaceutical companies with substantially greater resources than we have. In addition, a number of generic pharmaceutical products are prescribed for obesity, including phentermine, phendimetrazine, benzphetamine and diethylpropion. Some of these generic drugs, and others, are prescribed in combinations that have shown anecdotal evidence of efficacy. These products are sold at much lower prices than we intend to charge for our product candidates, if approved. The availability of a large number of branded prescription products, generic products and over-the-counter products could limit the demand for, and the price we are able to charge for, our product candidates. Currently there are a number of products in development for obesity which could become competitors against our product candidates. These include products being developed by Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Amgen Inc., Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Alizyme plc, Merck & Co., Inc., Nastech Pharmaceutical Co., Inc., Neurosearch A S, Peptimmune, Inc., Sanofi-Aventis, and Vivus, Inc., among others. Based on reports from these companies, it appears that some of these product candidates are entering into later stage clinical trials. Rimonabant, the Sanofi-Aventis compound, has been approved in certain countries outside of the United States. On June 13, 2007, the Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee convened by the FDA recommended unanimously against approval of rimonabant for use in obese patients. Although such recommendations are not binding on the FDA, on June 29, 2007, Sanofi-Aventis announced its decision to withdraw the rimonabant NDA in the United States. Sanofi-Aventis could, however, resubmit an amended NDA at some point in the future. New developments, including the development of other drug technologies and methods of preventing the incidence of disease, occur in the pharmaceutical and medical technology industries at a rapid pace. These developments may render our product candidates less competitive. Some of our potential competitors are large pharmaceutical or device firms and have substantially greater resources than we have. These resources could be directed toward the obesity market and include: research and development resources, including personnel and technology; regulatory experience; drug development and clinical trial experience; experience and expertise in exploitation of intellectual property rights; and capital resources.

Gonocytes fail to transform to type A spermatogonia. Deficiency of spermatogenesis was considered congenital at one time 178 ; , but in recent years evidence has accumulated to support a secondary degeneration of germ cells 197199 ; . Huff et al. 194 196 ; have shown that the maturation of gonocytes to type A spermatogonia, which is the first step in postnatal spermatogenic development, is deficient in cryptorchid infants. Where the gonocytes fail to mature into spermatogonia, they persist for a while in the testis and then degenerate, leading to deficiency in total germ cell numbers 200 ; . Although controversial, persisting gonocytes could be the source of carcinoma in situ CIS ; cells later in adolescence 201 ; . The higher risk of infertility in men with a past history of cryptorchidism is believed to be secondary to temperature-induced degeneration 4 ; . Rats rendered cryptorchid surgically at birth have reduced fertility 202, 203 ; , at least as measured by sperm analysis. Assessment by paternity rates, however, fails to reflect the same degree of anomaly. The cause of the UDT, whether surgical or hormonally induced by postnatal estrogen treatment, did not.

And comorbidities. In these 7 studies, treatment with XENICAL and placebo designates treatment with XENICAL plus diet and placebo plus diet, respectively. During the weight loss and weight maintenance period, a well-balanced, reduced-calorie diet that was intended to result in an approximate 20% decrease in caloric intake and provide 30% of calories from fat was recommended to all patients. In addition, all patients were offered nutritional counseling and betapace. Use in the Elderly No dosage adjustment is required in elderly patients. Use in Patients with Other Disorders XENICAL should be administered with due caution in patients with active peptic ulcer disease, chronically treated psychiatric neurologic disorders, symptomatic cholelithiasis, postsurgical adhesions, bulimia or laxative abuse and patients with significant cardiac, renal, hepatic, GI or endocrine disorders. XENICAL should be administered with due caution in obese patients with nephrolithiasis renal stones ; due to trends showing increased oxalate excretion in both healthy and obese subjects. Use in Patients with Vitamin Deficiency There are no clinical data on the use of XENICAL in patients with vitamin deficiency. XENICAL should be administered with due caution in those patients who have a deficiency of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K ; . Patients taking XENICAL showed a greater reduction in vitamins D, E and beta carotene levels compared to placebo during two or more consecutive visits in studies of 1 2 years duration. These patients did not receive prior vitamin supplementation. In a 4-year study, vitamin supplements were administered to patients who had low baseline vitamin values, or who experienced a decrease in their vitamin values during treatment. Over the course of the study treatment with orlistat resulted in a decrease in the levels of fat soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. More orlistat- than placebo-treated patients had falls in vitamins A and E. However in both orlistat and placebo treatment groups the mean plasma levels of fat soluble vitamins remained within the normal reference ranges at all times during the study. Effects on Ability to Drive and Use Machines No effects on the ability to drive and to use machines have been reported by patients taking XENICAL. Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis and Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenicity studies in rats and mice have not shown a carcinogenic potential for orlistat at oral doses up to 1000 mg kg day and 1500 mg kg day, respectively. Systemic exposure in these studies, in terms of the plasma Cmax for parent drug, was at least 5 times mouse ; and 270 times rat ; that in humans at the recommended dose. There was a decreased incidence of mammary fibroadenoma in female rats in the high dose group. Orlistat has no detectable genotoxic activity as determined by a bacterial reverse mutation assay, a mammalian forward mutation assay V79 HGPRT ; , an in vitro clastogenesis assay in peripheral human lymphocytes, an unscheduled DNA synthesis assay UDS ; in rat hepatocytes in culture, and an in vivo mouse micronucleus test. Fertility and reproductive performance were not affected in a study in rats given oral doses of up to 400 mg kg day which corresponds to a systemic exposure, in terms of plasma Cmax for parent drug, at least 95 times higher than that in women at the recommended dose.
Compared to placebo, 2 years of therapy with XENICAL also resulted in clinically and statistically significant improvements in many risk factors associated with obesity. A sustained improvement in total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, LDL HDL ratio, fasting glucose and fasting insulin was observed. Subpopulations with fasting insulin 120 pmol L or LDL-cholesterol 3.362 mmol L who were treated with XENICAL had clinically and statistically significant improvements in these risk factors compared to placebo at the end of 2 years of treatment. In addition, in patients treated with XENICAL, anthropometric measurements, including waist circumference and measurements of body composition, showed significant decreases in body fat. A statistically significant difference in quality of life overweight distress and satisfaction with treatment ; was observed over 2 years in favour of XENICAL compared to diet alone. Ancillary studies conducted during BM 14119C and BM 14149 showed that the majority of weight loss was loss in fat mass, which consistently accounted for more than 75% of total weight lost. Prevention of Weight Regain Three separate studies Protocols NM 14302, NM 14185, BM 14119C ; evaluated the effect of XENICAL on the prevention of weight regain in patients who previously lost at least 5% of their initial body weight. In two of the studies Protocols NM 14185, BM 14119C ; , by the end of the second year the patients receiving dietary and counselling treatment alone regained a mean of 56% of their lost weight after 1 year, while patients treated with XENICAL regained a mean of 31%. The third study Protocol NM 14302 ; was conducted to evaluate the effect of XENICAL on prevention of weight regain in patients who lost 8% or more of their initial body weight with diet alone. There was significantly less weight regain in patients treated with XENICAL than with diet alone. Patients receiving dietary and counselling treatment alone regained a mean of 59% of their lost weight, while patients treated with XENICAL regained a mean of 33%. For all three studies, approximately one-half of the patients treated with XENICAL regained no more than 25% of their lost weight. For all three studies, approximately one-quarter of patients either did not regain any weight at all or continued to lose weight. Four-Year Results: Long-term Weight Control and Risk Factors In the XENDOS study a 4-year multicentre, randomised, double-blind, parallel group, placebocontrolled trial ; , the effects of XENICAL treatment on long-term weight management and progression to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus type 2 diabetes ; in obese patients BMI 30 kg m2 males and females ; were compared to placebo in 3304 obese patients who had either normal or impaired glucose tolerance at baseline. Thirty-four percent of the 1655 patients who and benicar.

Is your body mass index BMI ; shooting up beyond 27, if yes, then you are certainly in the grip of deadening epidemic called obesity. Is your body mass index BMI ; shooting up beyond 27, if yes, then you are certainly in the grip of deadening epidemic called obesity. But it does not mean that your whole world has ended up with just onset of the daunting disease. There are numerous means to get rid of those extra pounds and to make others envious with a toned body. And alli diet drug : looseflab ; is one of the credible alternatives available at present. And a distinct peculiarity which makes it stands apart that alli is the only and first FDA approved non-prescription drug for obesity. Unlike other available anti-obesity means such as liposuction and surgery, alli diet drug, also extensively distinguished as low-dose Xenical Orlistat : looseflab orlistat , does not makes holes into buyer's pockets nor force users to endure the intense pain, the only thing it requires is balanced diet and regular exercise. Alli diet pills do not work without proper diet and constant exercise. But it also must be kept in mind that diet should not contain fat more than 15 gm as the intake of excessive fat could lead to frequent bowel movements and flatulence. But if used meticulously, one can shed off 50 percent more weight than dieting alone. An over-the-counter drug, alli diet drug helps obese and overweight to lose unwanted and extra flab by restricting their appetite. Since obesity crops up due to excessive accumulation of fat, the prodigious pill limits the fat breakdown after the food intake and thus prevents absorption of unnecessary fat. And undigested fat then passes through the bowel movements. Thereby, a person acquires fat that is required. But alli diet pills are not meant for those who are below 18 years. To make users aware of all features of the pill, Glaxosmithkline , the maker of alli diet drug, took lots of efforts. And Helpful diet books and a calorie counter provided along with an alli starter pack are few credible initiatives taken by the manufacturer in this direction. Thus with alli diet drug, obesity can be easily kept under control. Tim Kelly, An associated editor to : looseflab and metformin. Liver Biopsy A liver biopsy is a test used to obtain liver tissue that is examined under a microscope. It involves the insertion of a needle, typically between the ribs on the right side of the abdomen, into the liver for the purpose of obtaining a tiny sample. Local anesthesia is used before inserting the needle. The tissue specimen is then examined under a microscope. A liver biopsy can be helpful in making the diagnosis of PSC and in assessing the severity of scarring and extent of liver damage. Hence, a biopsy may be helpful in determining prognosis. What are the complicatons of PSC? Patients with PSC are at risk for developing other associated problems. Dominant Stricture A dominant stricture is a blockage in one of the large bile ducts that serve to drain bile from the smaller bile ducts of the liver and deliver it into the small intestine. A dominant stricture occurs in seven to twenty percent of patients with PSC. When a dominant stricture is present, bile is blocked from flowing through the bile duct and, therefore, may back up in the liver. Substances that are normally excreted into bile accumulate in the bloodstream and body tissues. This can lead to jaundice yellowish discoloration of the eyes and skin ; , stone formation in the bile ducts and infection in the bile ducts known as cholangitis. At ERCP a piece of plastic tubing called a "stent"can be placed across a dominant stricture in an effort to relieve the blockage. Fat Soluble Vitamin Deficiencies Vitamins A, D, E and K, are known as fat-soluble vitamins because they dissolve in oils rather than water. One function of bile is that it improves the intestine's ability to dissolve and absorb these vitamins. If bile from the liver does not get into the intestines in adequate amounts, fat-soluble vitamins may not get absorbed and deficiencies can occur. Blockage of bile ducts may also cause diarrhea because fat in the diet will be poorly absorbed. Osteoporosis Osteoporosis or bone thinning is another complication of PSC. The cause of osteoporosis in PSC is unclear. Cholangiocarcinoma The risk of developing cancer involving the bile ducts known as cholangiocarcinoma ; is higher in patients with PSC than in a healthy population. Cholangiocarcinoma may occur in 7 to 15% of patients with PSC.

Neither coronary heart disease nor cancer, the two leading causes of death, was significantly associated with BMI."120. Concentration of hydrochloric acid in the gastric secretion, "about 0.15 N., " Hollander stated: "Even more remarkable are the intracellular organizations which permit the existence of living normally functioning tissue in intimate contact with so corrosive a liquid. True, the fluid contents in the lumen of the stomach is much less acid, by reason of the neutralizing action exerted by food stuffs, saliva, and regurgitated intestinal juices. Nevertheless, even this less acid fluid will exert a marked digestive action on many tissues which may be immersed in it, even though these tissues are living organs transplanted into the stomach. The acid secretion, however, unaffected by admixture with the above-mentioned alkaline fluids exerts no such corrosive action on the cells which are immediately concerned in its elaboration. While the effective agent in the protection of these cells may be the mucus, no one has yet conclusively demonstrated that it is so, and thus, the stability of these tissues in the presence of digestive juices which they themselves manufacture remains as great a mystery as ever." In the 1930s, Hollander continued his studies on the nature and mechanisms of gastric acid secretion 11 19 ; . His observations refined and extended the views of Pavlov, and he formally proposed a two-component acid secretory process: 1 ; the parietal cell secretion, containing isosmotic HCl 160 mM ; and no other ions except for "perhaps a little potassium, " and 2 ; an alkaline component comprised of mucus, enzymes and a transudate of interstitial fluid. These were conceived to be relatively invariant physiologic entities with all alterations in the concentrated isosmotic ; primary HCl secretion resulting from dilution and neutralization by the non-parietal cell alkaline component. Absorption or back-diffusion of H + was, in Hollander's view, not a factor. The major evidence supporting an opposing viewpoint was presented by the renowned physiologist Torsten Teorell 20, 21 ; . Based on experiments in pylorus-ligated cats, as well as in an vitro membrane preparation, Teorell concluded that the hydrogen ions of strong acids diffuse out of the stomach quite easily, and that this hydrogen ion loss occurs via an exchange diffusion for Na ions across the surface mucosa. He viewed the gastric mucosa as an ion exchange membrane whose function it was to reduce the intraluminal gastric acidity. Teorell's back-diffusion model received some support 22 ; . One of the more interesting aspects of Teorell's 1939 report 21 ; was his observation that weak acids disappear from the stomach even more rapidly than do.
Graine medication is rapid and complete pain relief. In 1995, Silberstein4 published the results of a telephone survey of 500 self-reported migraineurs. Almost all the survey respondents were women 443 women and 57 men ; , which is consistent with the greater prevalence of migraine in women than men. Most of the respondents 60% ; had 3 or fewer migraine attacks per month; 15% reported 4 attacks per month, and 25% had 5 or more attacks per month. When describing their most recent migraine attack, 93% of patients reported moderate or severe headache pain, 76% had moderate or severe nausea, and 92% had moderate or severe visual problems. When asked to rate the importance of specific attributes of a migraine medication on a 10-point scale with 1 indicating not at all important and 10, extremely important ; , survey respondents gave the highest ratings to "provides quick headache relief" mean rating, 9.91 ; and "decreases headache pain" mean rating, 9.87 ; . Other migraine medication features considered important by the participants in this survey were "decreases likelihood of recurrence, " "does not cause nausea, " "decreases nausea, " "decreases vomiting, " "decreases sensitivity to light, " "orally administered, " "decreases visual problems, " and "does not cause drowsiness." In a 1999 telephone survey of 688 migraineurs by Lipton and Stewart, 5 patients expressed a strong preference for a migraine medication that could provide complete pain relief. When asked to rate the importance of various drug attributes, com.

Quantitative differences in erythrocyte markers in SCD, with PS the predominant marker when compared to CD36 both in the total erythrocyte population, and when the adherence-prone erythrocyte, the CD71 stress reticulocyte, was evaluated. Our study signals the entrance of an important new contributor to the field of sickle erythrocyteendothelial adhesion. The implications of erythrocyte PS exposure in relation to the vascular pathology of SCD need to be assessed. Blood. 2002; 99: 1564-1571.

Ilfeld, B.M.; Morey, T.E.; Enneking, F. Anesthesiology, University of Florida, College of Medicine, Gainesville, Florida Portable pumps used for local anesthetic infusion during continuous regional analgesia are gaining acceptance and usage.1-7 These pumps are often used for ambulatory patients who are medically unsupervised for the majority of the infusion duration. However, the performance of these pumps infusing potentially toxic medication has not been independently investigated. We investigated the flow-rate accuracy, consistency, and profiles of various portable pumps often used for local anesthetic infusion during continuous regional analgesia. Using a computer scale combination within a laboratory to record infusion rates, five pumps see table ; were tested with their flow-regulators at expected 30-32C ; and increased 34-36C ; temperatures. A sixth pump Microject PCA ; was tested at room temperature 20-24C ; as it is electronic and does not have a temperature-dependent flow-regulator. Each test was performed twice with a new infusion pump unit using normal saline, 0.9%, as the infusate. If the infusion rate during the second trial was found to differ more than 10% of the original trial at any point, then a third trial was performed. The trials were combined to produce a mean profile for each pump at the baseline expected temperature hollow circles in figures ; . Following this, all pumps except for the Microject ; were tested again using the same protocol, but with the heating unit set 4C above the baseline temperature solid circles in figures ; . Infusion rate accuracy differed significantly among the pumps, exhibiting flow rates within 15% of their set rate for 18-100% of their infusion duration see figures ; . An increase in temperature also affected pumps to differing degrees, with infusion rates increasing from 0-25% for each model tested see figures ; . These results suggest that factors such as flow-rate accuracy and consistency, infusion profile, and temperature sensitivity should be taken into consideration when choosing and utilizing a portable infusion pump for local anesthetic administration. 1 ; Anesth.Analg. 1998; 86: 86-9. ; Anesthesiology 1999; 91: 563-5. ; Ilfeld BM and Enneking FK.

Development of Summary Reports The Penn State team coordinated the task of selecting candidate clinical outcomes. The DUR Outcomes Bibliographic Database was used extensively in the selection and evaluation process. This was done by developing various summary reports on the evidence linking clinical outcomes with specific DUR criteria. The summary reports took the form of short meta-analyses [ Dickersin and Berlin 1992 ; ] and included quantitative and qualitative summaries of the literature for each candidate outcome. A typical summary report contained the following elements: 1. Reference to the source material for the descriptions of the screening criteria: a ; the UM PCPS Final Report; and b ; the PSU Screener Documentation Report. These references provided the exact definitions of the screens and the details relating to the screening parameters exact dosages, durations, interactive drugs, special conditions, etc. ; . Summary of the relevant literature. The report summarized the literature that supported the association between a specific outcome or class of outcomes with one or more of the DUR screens. When possible, the summary included information on the relative strength of the association, the presence of dose-response relationships, and information on the study populations to which the study refers. Identification of the relevant ICD-9CM codes and coding groups including excluded codes, if any. A summary table of the proposed clinical outcomes and screening criteria. This provided an overview of the clinical outcomes, relevant ICD-9CM codes, DUR screens, and other information that might have be relevant to selection of the clinical outcome. References.
