The study is about drug patch tests in patients who have history of severe cutaneous drug reaction including Steven Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), Drug-induced eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), AGEP (Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis) and generalized bullous fixed drug eruptions. This study also investigate in Enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot assay (ELIspot) and lymphocyte transformation test. We also trying to prove the correlation among result of drug patch tests, ELIspot and LTT.

The purpose of this effort is to use informative e-mails to improve the process of prescribing of opioids and benzodiazepines within the National Capital Region/Military Health System (NCR/MHS), with the aim of decreasing concurrent opioid and benzodiazepine prescribing.

Preterm labor is one of the problems of obstetrics, and is one of the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. The incidence of preterm birth is around 7 to 9 %. The preterm baby is prone to respiratory, renal, neurologic and gastrointestinal problems. The correct diagnosis should be followed by the early administration of the most effective tocolytic agent with least side effects for both mother and fetus. Nifedipine, a calcium channel blocker, has gained a world-wide popularity recently since it has the least side-effects on both mother and fetus. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the success rate of tocolytic agent 'nifedipine' on the spontaneous preterm labor of singeton pregnant women with intact amnionic membrane.

The critically ill patient is one of the most complex cases with regard to the optimization of the anesthesia, as well as postoperative management. One of the most important steps in the complex management of such patients is the modulation of anesthesia for every patient needs. We start with the assumptions that the optimization of anesthesia should depend on each patient, being conducted in an individual manner. We also believe that by individualizing the anesthesia by monitoring the entropy it is possible to obtain an appropriate management regarding hemodynamic complications during anesthesia including tachycardia, bradycardia, hypotension and hypertension.

The aim of this study is to determine the proportion of clinical improvement, the score changing of type 1 interferon selected gene expression, and analysis of transcriptomics profiling in patients with idiopathic uveitis positive IGRA before and after receiving Anti-Tuberculosis Therapy (ATT). Hopefully, by conducting this research, we are able to provide valid data that demonstrate the advantages/disadvantages usage of Anti-Tuberculosis Therapy in patients with idiopathic uveitis IGRA positive that correlate with type I IFN. This research is a part of our efforts in discovering bio-marker candidates of idiopathic uveitis IGRA positive clinical patients who will benefit from the ATT administration.

Evaluation of drug overdose cases presented to Assiut university hospitals' adults and pediatric emergency departments (EDs) in one year period. Evaluation the role of intensive care unit (ICU) admission in these cases and possible scoring system for common groups of drug overdose.

BACKGROUND It is estimated that around 71 milion people live with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. This may lead to the development of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Liver cirrhosis is considered as one of the most common risk factors of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC is seventh most common cancer worldwide. The treatment of HCV with direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) has led to the increase of sustained virological response (SVR) rates to more than 90%. It is suggested that the virus eradication reduces, but not eliminates the risk of HCC. This concerns especially patients with liver cirrhosis or previous HCC history. There are reports of early occurrence of HCC after the DAA treatment. Therefore, patients undergoing successful HCV treatment should be monitored for the possibility of hepatoccelular carcinoma occurrence. AIM OF THE STUDY In this study the investigators aimed to assess the occurrence of HCC after direct acting antiviral HCV treatment and evaluate whether the course of HCC and liver function differ among the population of patients treated with DAAs and those who were not receiving the therapy with DAA. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is the observative, cohort, retrospective study which will be performed in several clinical centres in Poland. The inclusion criteria are: hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosis, age >18 years old. The investigators will collect both epidemiological (age, gender, comorbidities, alcohol abuse) and clinical data (serum bilirubin, alanine, aspartate aminotransferase, platelets, gammaglutamyltransferase, alkaline phosphatase and alpha-fetoprotein level, Child-Pugh and MELD score, imaging tests, liver biopsy and elastography, if performed). In all patients, the HCV infection and co-infections will be assessed. In those who underwent the DAA treatment, the composition of the therapy and response to the treatment will be evaluated. Statistical analysis will be performed in subgroups of patients undergoing DAA treatment and without the therapy. The distribution of continuous variables will be analysed by the Shapiro-Wilk test. Quantitative data will be analysed using the Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA when appropriate. Qualitative data will be compared using the χ² test or the Fisher exact test. Correlations between quantitative variables will be assessed using the Spearman correlation coefficient. P value will be set at <0.05.

This multicenter Registry is to assess whether the use of pharmacogenomic data results in a meaningful change in a subject's drug or dose regimen. In addition, the Registry will evaluate the relationship between adverse drug reactions (ADR) and genotype and assess resource utilization (emergency department visits and hospitalizations) associated with ADR.

An ADE is defined as harm caused by a drug or the inappropriate use of a drug. Retrospective record reviews in several countries have shown that anticoagulants frequently lead to hospital readmissions. In this study a hospital readmission is defined as an admission to the emergency department of the Jessa hospital. The objective of this study is to determine the incidence of one week and 30-day readmissions caused by (preventable) ADE's due to anticoagulants.
