Risk factors associated with pseudoaldosteronism in patients with chronic hepatitis: A retrospective cohort study
This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between elevated direct‐bilirubin levels and hypokalaemia, which is the most sensitive marker of pseudoaldosteronism. This retrospective cohort study was conducted in a Japanese university hospital. The occurrence of hypokalaemia, defined as a serum potassium level of ≤ 3.5 mEq/ L after the administration of a glycyrrhizin‐containing medication, and a further decline of ≥ 0.5 mEq/L or an increase of ≥ 0.5 mEq/L after discontinuing the glycyrrhizin‐containing medication were examined in patients with chronic hepatitis between January 2009 and December 2015. This anal...

Influence of thiopurine S ‐methyltransferase polymorphisms in mercaptopurine pharmacokinetics in healthy volunteers
The objective of this study was to evaluate the role ofTPMT polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of mercaptopurine. For that purpose, we used collected pharmacokinetic data from 48 healthy volunteers (all males) who received a single oral dose of mercaptopurine 50 mg in two bioequivalence studies. The volunteers were subsequently genotyped forTPMT *2, *3A, *3B and *3C alleles by real ‐time PCR. There were four carriers (8.3%) ofTPMT*2 andTPMT*3A alleles. Mercaptopurine elimination was affected byTPMT loss ‐of‐function polymorphisms, since heterozygous subjects show 18% higher half‐life compared to wild‐type indi...

Impact of knowledge, attitude and preceptor behaviour in pharmacovigilance education
This study aimed to determine the level of pharmacovigilance (PV) education in pharmacy programs and to evaluate the predictive factors for the intent to report adverse drug reactions (ADRs) by pharmacy students in South Korea. Self ‐administered questionnaires were collected from a regionally stratified nationwide convenience sample of pharmacy students in September 2017. The association between students’ intent to report ADRs and their knowledge and attitude was evaluated by using multivariate logistic regression analysis . In total, 303 pharmacy students participated in the survey; the average age of students was 26...
