RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Drug transporters are important determinants of drug disposition and response. Tamoxifen is an antiestrogen for breast cancer therapy known for adverse drug reactions (ADRs). In this study, the involvement of OATP transporters in tamoxifen and endoxifen transport was studied in vitro while the impact of single nucleotide variation (SNV) in OATP and efflux transporters P-glycoprotein ( ABCB1 ) and Breast Cancer Resistance Protein ( ABCG2 ) on ADRs during tamoxifen therapy were assessed. METHODS: Patients receiving tamoxifen for breast cancer, who were CYP2D6 normal metabolizers were enrolled ( n = 296). Patients completed a survey that captured ADRs and a blood sample was collected. Tamoxifen and endoxifen plasma concentration were measured, while DNA was genotyped for SNVs in ABCB1, ABCG2, SLCO1A2, SLCO1B1 , and SLCO2B1 . HEK293T cells were used to determine the extent of OATP-mediated transport of tamoxifen and endoxifen. RESULTS: Common SNVs of ABCB1, ABCG2, SLCO1A2 , and SLCO1B1 were not associated with tamoxifen or endoxifen concentration. However, tamoxifen concentration was significantly higher in carriers of SLCO2B1 c.935G>A (129.8 ng/mL) compared to wildtype (114.9 ng/mL; P = 0.036). Interestingly, subjects who carried SLCO1A2 c.38A>G reported significantly less dizziness ( P = 0.016). In-vitro analysis demonstrated increased cellular accumulation of tamoxifen in cells overexpressing OATP1A2 and 1B1, but endoxifen uptake was not effected in OATP overexpressing cells. CONCLUSIONS: We showed that OATP1A2 , a transporter known to be expressed at the blood-brain barrier, is capable of tamoxifen transport. Additionally, OATP1A2 c.38A>G was associated with reduced ADRs. Taken together, our findings suggest genetic variation in OATP transporters may be an important predictor of tamoxifen ADRs.

Factor Xa-inhibitor apixaban is an oral anticoagulant prescribed in atrial fibrillation (AF) for stroke prevention. Its pharmacokinetic profile is known to be affected by cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A metabolism, while it is also a substrate of the efflux transporters ATP-binding cassette (ABC)B1 (P-glycoprotein) and ABCG2 (breast cancer resistance protein, BCRP). In this study, we assessed the impact of interacting medication and pharmacogenetic variation to better explain apixaban concentration differences among 358 Caucasian AF patients. Genotyping (ABCG2, ABCB1, CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3) was performed by TaqMan assays, and apixaban quantified by mass spectrometry. The typical patient was on average 77.2 years old, 85.5 kg, and had a serum creatinine of 103.1 µmol/L. Concomitant amiodarone, an antiarrhythmic agent and moderate CYP3A/ABCB1 inhibitor, the impaired-function variant ABCG2 c.421C > A, and sex predicted higher apixaban concentrations when controlling for age, weight and serum creatinine (multivariate regression; R2 = 0.34). Our findings suggest that amiodarone and ABCG2 genotype contribute to interpatient apixaban variability beyond known clinical factors.

Introduction: Introduction: obesity is a public health problem. No significant decrease in the prevalence of obesity has been globally observed. A better understanding of the factors that can influence obesity is necessary, one of them being self-perception of body weight. Objective: to determine the agreement between self-perception of body image and nutritional status in a Chilean population. Methods: an analytical cross-sectional study was carried out based on the Chilean National Health Survey 2016-2017. Nutritional status was measured by body mass index (BMI) and self-perceived body weight. Agreement was estimated by the kappa index and weighted kappa index. These indices were specified according to sociodemographic variable. Results: the total number of participants was 5483, with 51 % (95 % CI: 48.7-53.5) corresponding to women. Mean age was 43.2 years (95 % CI: 42.4-44.0). The kappa index showed a low concordance (kappa, 0.194; 95 % CI: 0.177 to 0.211) among women, people from rural areas, and subjects with fewer years of education. The global weighted kappa was 0.325; 95 % CI (0.168-0.482). Conclusions: underestimation of nutritional status can lead to negation of the problem generated by excess body weight. Recognizing nutritional status is a critical stage to initiate behavior changes and start having healthy eating habits. More than half of Chileans present distortion of body image, prevailing underestimation of body weight.
Introducción: Introducción: la obesidad es un problema de salud pública. No se ha observado una disminución significativa de la prevalencia de la obesidad a nivel mundial. Es necesaria una mejor comprensión de los factores que pueden influir en la obesidad y uno de ellos es la autopercepción del peso corporal. Objetivo: determinar la concordancia entre la autopercepción de la imagen corporal y el estado nutricional real en la población chilena de 15 y más años. Métodos: se realizó un estudio transversal analítico basado en la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de Chile 2016-2017. Se midió el estado nutricional junto con la autopercepción del peso corporal. Se estimó el índice de concordancia kappa y el kappa ponderado. Estos índices se especificaron según la variable sociodemográfica. Resultados: un 51 % (IC 95 %: 48,7-53,5) corresponden a mujeres. La edad media fue de 43,2 años (IC 95 %: 42,4-44,0). El índice kappa mostró una baja concordancia (kappa: 0,194; IC 95 %: 0,177 a 0,211), siendo inferior en las mujeres, las personas de área rural y las de menos años de educación. El kappa ponderado global fue de 0,325; IC 95 % (0,168-0,482). Conclusiones: la subestimación del estado nutricional favorece la negación del problema que genera el exceso de peso corporal. Reconocer el estado nutricional que se tiene es una etapa crítica para iniciar un cambio de comportamiento; por lo tanto, evaluar incorrectamente el peso corporal impide iniciar hábitos de alimentación saludable. Más de la mitad de los chilenos presentan distorsión de la imagen corporal, prevaleciendo la subestimación del peso corporal.

Consensus guidelines exist for genotype-guided fluoropyrimidine dosing based on variation in the gene dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPYD). However, these guidelines have not been widely implemented in North America and most studies of pretreatment DPYD screening have been conducted in Europe. Given regional differences in treatment practices and rates of adverse events (AEs), we investigated the impact of pretreatment DPYD genotyping on AEs in a Canadian context. Patients referred for DPYD genotyping prior to fluoropyrimidine treatment were enrolled from December 2013 through November 2019 and followed until completion of fluoropyrimidine treatment. Patients were genotyped for DPYD c.1905+1G>A, c.2846A>T, c.1679T>G, and c.1236G>A. Genotype-guided dosing recommendations were informed by Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium guidelines. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients who experienced a severe fluoropyrimidine-related AE (grade ≥3, Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0). Secondary outcomes included early severe AEs, severe AEs by toxicity category, discontinuation of fluoropyrimidine treatment due to AEs, and fluoropyrimidine-related death. Among 1394 patients, mean (SD) age was 64 (12) years, 764 (54.8%) were men, and 47 (3.4%) were DPYD variant carriers treated with dose reduction. Eleven variant carriers (23%) and 418 (31.0%) noncarriers experienced a severe fluoropyrimidine-related AE (p = 0.265). Six carriers (15%) and 284 noncarriers (21.1%) experienced early severe fluoropyrimidine-related AEs (p = 0.167). DPYD variant carriers treated with genotype-guided dosing did not experience an increased risk for severe AEs. Our data support a role for DPYD genotyping in the use of fluoropyrimidines in North America.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Qualitative analysis of computed tomography (CT) angiography data often is limited by intra- and interobserver variability. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the time-effectiveness and accuracy of a quantitative CT angiography data analysis using automated software in comparison with qualitative axial and coronal CT image reading in patients with peripheral bypass grafts. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-eight patients with 33 saphenous bypass grafts underwent 4-channel (n = 21) and 16-channel (n = 7) CT angiography. Two readers evaluated in consensus the CT data qualitatively on axial and coronal reconstructions and with the software regarding the presence of graft stenoses, aneurysmal changes, and arteriovenous fistulas. The time for data analysis was taken and the accuracy was compared with the results from digital subtraction angiography (DSA). RESULTS: No significant difference was present between data analysis time using axial and coronal CT images (4.9 +/- 1.5 minutes) and when using the software tool (5.5 +/- 1.4 minutes). Good (kappa = 0.652) to excellent (kappa = 1.000) intermodality agreement was present between qualitative and quantitative CT analysis regarding graft-related abnormalities. Sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing stenoses, aneurysms, and fistula did not differ significantly (P > .025) between qualitative CT image reading and the automated software tool. CONCLUSIONS: CT angiography analysis of peripheral bypass grafts using an automated software tool is similar regarding time-effectiveness and accuracy when compared with qualitative CT data analysis on axial and coronal images. It may assist in determining the significance of an abnormality and can yield objective morphometric data of vessel calibers.

La rehabilitación de los extremos libres, en mandíbula uni o bilaterales, suponen un gran reto para el odontólogo, siendo un problema a resolver en la práctica clínica habitual. Tales casos suelen ser resueltos mediante prótesis parcial removible, las cuales deben soportar fuerzas horizontales y de torsión, con efectos adversos durante la función, al producir fuerzas terminales de torque contra pilares y tejidos blandos principalmente por la diferente resiliencia de estas estructuras afectando así la retención, estabilidad y el soporte de la prótesis dental. En el último tiempo se han reportado prótesis parcial removible mandibular en combinación con implante en extremo libre distal como una alternativa a las tradicionales prótesis parcial removible mucodentosoportada y a las prótesis fijas implantosoportadas para el manejo de la desdentición parcial en extremo libre; sin embargo, los reportes publicados en la literatura sobre esta alternativa es limitada respecto a la funcionalidad y el pronóstico. Este artículo presenta una revisión sistematizada de la literatura cuyo objetivo fue identificar y sintetizar la mejor evidencia disponible respecto a las consideraciones y comportamiento clínico de esta modalidad de tratamiento en desdentados de la clase I y II de Kennedy mandibular.
The rehabilitation of free ends in a unilateral or bilateral jaw represents a major challenge for the dentist, and is a problem to solve in the daily clinical practice. These cases are usually resolved by removable partial dentures, which should be able to withstand horizontal forces. Torque adverse effect can occur during functioning, because of torque forces terminals against pillars and soft tissue mainly caused by the different resilience of these structures, therefore affecting retention, stability and support of the dental prosthesis. In recent times it has been reported that mandibular removable partial dentures in combination with distal free end implants can be a viable alternative to traditional removable partial dentures and implant-supported fixed partial dentures for treatment of partial toothless free end, however literature regarding functionality and prognosis of this alternative is limited. This paper presents a systematic literature review aimed to identify and synthesize the best available evidence regarding the considerations and clinical behavior of this treatment modality in edentulous Class I and II of the edentulous Kennedy mandibular.
RESUMO
La fluoruración del agua potable comenzó a implementarse en Chile en la década de 1950 para prevenir el principal problema de salud oral en la población, la caries dental. Se ha aplicado sistemáticamente en el país, y en Temuco desde el año 2004. Sin embargo, la ingesta de fluoruros en periodos críticos del desarrollo dentario de manera excesiva produce fluorosis dental. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la prevalencia y severidad de la fluorosis dental en escolares de segundo básico que consumen agua potable fluorurada en la ciudad de Temuco, Chile y asociarla con la historia de caries. Se realizó un estudio epidemiológico descriptivo y explicativo con un muestreo aleatorio estratificado de la población escolar de 7 años que cursaba segundo básico durante el año 2012 en colegios particulares, subvencionados y municipales de Temuco. Sobre una muestra de 317 niños, se determinó el índice Dean y la historia de caries. La prevalencia de fluorosis dental fue 53,31 por ciento (169 niños), y la severidad fue de tipo cuestionable, muy leve y leve en el 31,36 por ciento, 42,6 por ciento y 22,4 por ciento de los casos, respectivamente. El 3,5 por ciento fue moderado. No se observó asociación significativa entre fluorosis e historia de caries. En Temuco, la prevalencia de fluorosis dental en niños de 7 años es alta, con una severidad de tipo cuestionable, muy leve y leve en más del 50 por ciento de los casos. Luego de 8 años de implementar la fluoruración del agua potable, hubo una disminución del daño acumulado por caries, pero la fluorosis dental aumentó en la población.
Fluoridation of drinking water, began to be implemented in 1950's in Chile to prevent the main problem of oral health in the population, dental caries. It has been consistently applied in the country and Temuco city since 2004. However, intake of fluorides in critical periods of tooth development excessively produces dental fluorosis. The aim was to determine the prevalence and severity of dental fluorosis in elementary schoolchildren consuming fluoridated drinking water in the city of Temuco, Chile and its association with the history of dental caries. A descriptive and explanatory epidemiological study with a stratified random sample of 7-years schoolchildren of private, subsidized and municipal elementary schools in Temuco city was performed. On a sample of 317 children, Dean's index and history of caries was determined. The prevalence of dental fluorosis was 53.31 percent (169 children), and severity rate was questionable, very mild and mild in 31.36 percent, 42.6 percent and 22.4 percent of cases, respectively. In 3.5 percent was moderate. No significant association between fluorosis and history of dental caries was observed. In Temuco, the prevalence of dental fluorosis in 7-years children is high, with severity of questionable, very mild and mild type in 50 percent of cases. After 8 years of implementing the fluoridation of drinking water, there was a decrease of dental caries damage but increased dental fluorosis in the population.
