Context In type 1 diabetes (T1D), delayed gastric emptying (GE) may predispose to a mismatch between insulin delivery and glucose absorption. Previous studies evaluated, only partly, the relationship between delayed GE and postprandial, but not diurnal, glycemia. Objective To assess the relationship between GE disturbances and glycemic control in T1D and the effects of accelerating GE on glyc...

AIMS Edoxaban, a novel factor Xa inhibitor, is a substrate of cytochrome P450 3 A4 (CYP3A4) and the efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Three edoxaban drug-drug interaction studies examined the effects of P-gp inhibitors with varying degrees of CYP3A4 inhibition. METHODS In each study, healthy subjects received a single oral dose of 60 mg edoxaban with or without an oral dual P-gp/CYP3A...

Hailey-Hailey disease is a rare autosomal dominant skin disorder that typically affects the intertriginous areas. The responsible defect has been identified in the gene named ATP2C1 on chromosome 3q21-24. We present a 50-year-old man with a 16-year history of blistering eruptions and positive familial history where this disease had appeared through four generations. The diagnosis was confirmed ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of orally administered cisapride, bethanechol, and erythromycin on the absorption of colostral IgG in dairy calves. ANIMALS Twenty-four healthy neonatal Holstein-Friesian calves. PROCEDURES Calves were randomly assigned to one of the following treatments: 0.9% NaCl solution (2 mL, p.o.; negative control); erythromycin lactobionate (20 mg/kg BW, p.o.; anticip...

A randomized crossover study in 16 healthy volunteers given multiple doses of erythromycin base enteric-coated tablets or erythromycin estolate capsules revealed essentially no difference in the resultant plasma concentration of bioactive erythromycin. This similarity in bioactivity persisted despite the fact that total eryghromycin levels (bioactive erythromycin base plus bioinactive erythromy...
