Historical Prospective
نویسنده
چکیده
This review presents a brief historical prospective of the genesis of regulated medication in the US racing industry of which the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug phenylbutazone (PBZ) is the focus. It presents some historical guide posts in the development of the current rules on the use on PBZ by racing jurisdictions in the US. Based on its prevalent use, PBZ still remains a focus of attention. The review examines the information presented in a number of different models used to determine the effects and duration of PBZ in the horse. They include naturally occurring lameness and reversible induced lameness models that directly examine the effects and duration of the administration of various doses of PBZ. The review also examines indirect plasma and tissue models studying the suppression of the release of arachidonic acidderived mediators of inflammation. The majority of studies suggest an effect of PBZ at 24 hours at 4.4 mg/kg. This reflects and substantiates the opinion of many clinical veterinarians, many of whom will not perform a pre-purchase lameness examination unless the horse is shown to be free of NSAID. This remains the opinion of many Commission Veterinarians in that they wish to examine a horse pre-race without the possibility of a NSAID interfering with the examination and masking possible musculoskeletal conditions. Based on scientific studies, residual effects of PBZ remain at 24 hours following administration. The impact of sustained effect on the health and welfare of the horse and its contribution to injuries during competition remains problematic.

متن کاملModeling Historical Land Cover and Land Use: A Review fromContemporary Modeling
Spatially-explicit land cover land use change (LCLUC) models are becoming increasingly useful tools for historians and archaeologists. Such kinds of models have been developed and used by geographers, ecologists and land managers over the last few decades to carry out prospective scenarios. In this paper, we review historical models to compare them with prospective models, with the assumption t...
متن کاملRobust meta-analytic-predictive priors in clinical trials with historical control information.
Historical information is always relevant for clinical trial design. Additionally, if incorporated in the analysis of a new trial, historical data allow to reduce the number of subjects. This decreases costs and trial duration, facilitates recruitment, and may be more ethical. Yet, under prior-data conflict, a too optimistic use of historical data may be inappropriate. We address this challenge...

BACKGROUND Chagas disease treatment is limited by drug availability, adverse side effect profiles of available medications, and poor adherence. METHODS Adult Chagas disease patients initiating 60-days of benznidazole were randomized to weekly or twice-weekly evaluations of medication adherence and screening for adverse drug events (ADEs). Mid-week evaluations employed phone-based evaluations....
