Non-invasive Assessment of Fecal Glucocorticoid and Androgen Metabolites in the Pygmy Hippopotamus (Choeropsis liberiensis)
In conclusion, we identified EIAs for the measurement of fecal metabolites of androgens and glucocorticoids that can be used for further studies to monitor gonadal activity in male pygmy hippos and adrenocortical activity in both sexes. We also identified a seasonal trend in male gonadal activity in this species under managed care in North America. Finally, our findings highlight an important consideration when using non-invasive methods for evaluating fecal cortisol metabolites: ACTH used for pharmacological validation of an EIA does not necessarily equate to biological relevance.PMID:37348682 | DOI:10.1016/j.ygcen.2023.114338

Suprachoroidal triamcinolone acetonide injectable suspension for macular edema associated with noninfectious uveitis: an in-depth look at efficacy and safety
Am J Manag Care. 2023 Feb;29(2 Suppl):S19-S28. doi: 10.37765/ajmc.2023.89324.ABSTRACTPatients with macular edema (ME) associated with uveitis (UME) are at risk for vision loss and decreased quality of life, and they often experience high health care costs and rates of workforce absenteeism. Systemically or locally delivered corticosteroids are the mainstay of treatment for UME. Although traditional corticosteroid treatments may demonstrate high levels of efficacy, systemic delivery carries the risk of potentially serious systemic adverse effects (AEs), and standard local modes of delivery may be associated with low bioavai...

Clinical and economic burden of uncontrolled severe noneosinophilic asthma
CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with severe asthma with low eosinophils untreated with biologics, there is a high burden of disease among those who have suboptimal disease control, highlighting an unmet need in severe asthma treatment.PMID:35738228 | DOI:10.37765/ajmc.2022.89159

Evaluation of a pediatric asthma high-risk scoring algorithm
CONCLUSIONS: Texas Children's Health Plan asthma risk score stratifies risk of asthma hospitalization and ED visits for Medicaid-insured children. The risk score performs better for children aged 3 to less than 18 years than for those aged 1 to less than 3 years.PMID:35738221 | DOI:10.37765/ajmc.2022.88788
