Signs and symptoms of prednisone toxicitySIR--Acne is common after organ transplantation.1 Steroids are usually blamed but recently cyclosporin has also been reported to be associated with severe acne.2 Systemic treatment with antibiotics may interact with cyclosporin metabolism and absorption. Severe acne responds to isotretinoin. Transplant physicians have been reluctant to prescribe this drug because of concern about enhancing rejection, although several cases have now been reported on the use of isotretinoin with no deleterious effects on the grafts.2 A rare side-effect of isotretinoin is curling hair.3 We report three simultaneous pancreas-kidney SPK ; transplant recipients, who developed curling hair after isotretinoin therapy. The first patient is a 49-year-old man who was put on isotretinoin 100 mg day 13 months after transplantation because of severe acne which did not respond to topical therapy. 2 months later he developed extremely curly hair figure ; . The second patient was a 46-year-old man who started 60 mg isotretinoin 12 months after transplantation, and developed curls in his hair after 60 days. The third patient started isotretinoin 60 mg day 13 months after transplantation and developed curling hairs 3 months later. All patients had an improvement in their acne and no deleterious effects on pancreas and kidney graft function were seen. Cyclosporin dosage had to be increased in two patients, based on trough levels. Concurrent medication was prednisone 10 mg day ; , cyclosporin Neoral ; , and azathioprine. Furthermore, nifedipine 2 3 patients ; , sodium bicarbonate 3 ; , omeprazole 1 3 ; , distigmine bromide 1 3 ; , atenolol 1 3 ; , hydrochlorothiazide 1 3 ; , and enalapril. Analysis: adverse events with these drugs included dizziness, nausea, hypotension, hallucinations, and somnolence and prempro, because side effects from prednisone. Of view, for the time being, cannot evaluated. No data related to the protocol biopsy findings in patients treated by sirolimus or everolimus have been published. Discussion of significance of the protocol biopsies and opinions on the clinical significance of interstitial infiltrates in stable grafts continues23. For the time being, the protocol biopsies provide extraordinarily important information, which cannot be obtained in any other way. They can diagnose serious morphological defects of the graft which are not apparent during the clinical biopsy time and enable us to gain time during which an adequate therapy can prevent functional deterioration of the graft. Questions related particularly to timing and frequency of the protocol biopsies, better specification of pathogenic seriousness of infiltrating cells by means of molecular and immunological markers and finally also the type of optimal therapeutic strategy of subclinical rejection which could lead to improved function and survival of the graft still remain. With the expanding variety of available effective immunosuppressive substances, we cannot rule out the possibility that in future, the significance of protocol biopsies from the subclinical rejection diagnostics point of view will be limited or will be superseded by new, non invasive examinations, development of which is intensively being worked on25.

Docetaxel Taxotere, Aventis ; , a well-known taxane chemotherapeutic agent for patients with metastatic breast cancer, provided a significant survival benefit when administered to patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer, and it reduced the chance of dying by 24% while offering markedly improved quality of life. The researchers randomly assigned 1, 006 patients to receive docetaxel 30 mg m2 weekly, docetaxel 75 mg m2 once every three weeks, or mitoxantrone Novantrone, Immunex ; 12 mg m2 once every three weeks. All of the patients also received 5 mg of oral prednisone daily. The latter approach is the established standard of care as initial treatment to relieve pain in patients with advanced hormone-refractory cancer. ; The planned duration for all three arms was 30 weeks, and the primary study endpoint was survival. Secondary endpoints included pain response, measurable tumor responses, a decline in prostate-specific antigen PSA ; values, and improved quality of life over baseline measures. At a median follow-up of 20.7 months, the men receiving higher-dose docetaxel every three weeks had a survival rate. And 14% for osteoarthritis. The study sample that met the inclusion criteria totaled 7939. Of this study population, 1580 were classified as having allergic rhinitis, 1149 had asthma, 1490 had diabetes mellitus, 3569 had hypertension, and 1060 had osteoarthritis Figure ; . Subjects who were treated for 2 or more diseases of interest n 909 ; were categorized into more than 1 disease condition for analysis. Age, sex, and distribution of BDC are given in Table 1 for the study sample. Table 2 summarizes persistence and switching behavior across the disease groups as categorized by copayment change status. For patients with allergic rhinitis, there was a 9.6% decrease in the number of patients who stayed on the same therapy with a BDC; for patients with asthma, hypertension, and osteoarthritis, the decreases were 12.8%, 18.0%, and 22.1%, respectively P .001 for all ; . There was also a statistically significant increase in the rates of discontinuation for patients experiencing BDC versus the controls in all disease conditions except diabetes mellitus. For patients with allergic rhinitis, there was a 12.9% increase, and for asthma, hypertension, and osteoarthritis, the rates of, for example, prednisone mechanism.
