An unusual adverse drug reaction?
INTRODUCTION Adult Still Disease (ASD) is a rare (incidence 1-1,6/1,000,000 in Europe) seronegative polyarthropathy diagnosed with clinical criteria, excluding other etiologies. Minocycline, a semisynthetic derivative of tetracycline, has been associated with many adverse effects. We present the case of a 18-years-old man with a high suspicion of an adverse drug reaction (ADR), that was finally...
متن کاملStatistical methods for knowledge discovery in adverse drug reaction surveillance Statistical methods for knowledge discovery in adverse drug reaction surveillance
Collections of individual case safety reports are the main resource for early discovery of unknown adverse reactions to drugs once they have been introduced to the general public. The data sets involved are complex and based on voluntary submission of reports, but contain pieces of very important information. The aim of this thesis is to propose computationally feasible statistical methods for ...
متن کاملHow to promote adverse drug reaction reports using information systems – a systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a well-recognized public health problem and a major cause of death and hospitalization in developed countries. The safety of a new drug cannot be established until it has been on the market for several years. Keeping drug reactions under surveillance through pharmacovigilance systems is indispensable. However, underreporting is a major issue that und...
متن کاملRegression analysis of biased case-control data with application to spontaneous adverse drug reaction reports
The data obtained from case-control sampling may suffer from selection or reporting bias, resulting in biased estimation of the parameter(s) of interest by standard analysis of case-control data. In this work, the problem of reporting bias is dealt with by introducing the concept of reporting probability. Then, considering a reference sample from the source population, we obtain unbiased estima...
متن کاملImportance of Publishing Adverse Drug Reaction Case Reports: Promoting Public Health and Advancing Pharmacology and Therapeutics
This article, which encourages physicians to publish case reports of adverse drug reactions (ADRs), is a review of how well-documented published case reports have contributed to promoting public safety and health and thus served to advance basic pharmacology. The origin of a number of regulatory guidelines can ultimately be traced to safety concerns triggered by such reports. It illustrates how...
