A population kinetic model was developed for the body fluid shifts occurring when 20% albumin is given by intravenous infusion. The aim was to study whether its efficacy to expand the plasma volume is impaired after major surgery. ⋯ There were no clinically relevant differences in the kinetics of 20% albumin between postoperative patients and volunteers.

Effect of continuous venovenous haemodialysis on outcome and pharmacokinetics of arsenic species in a patient with acute promyelocytic leukaemia and acute kidney injury.
This study presents outcome and pharmacokinetics of arsenic trioxide (ATO) metabolites in patients on continuous venovenous haemodialysis (CVVHD). Of 3 acute promyelocytic leukaemia patients receiving CVVHD in management of acute kidney injury, only 1 patient was included. The patient presented disseminated intravascular coagulation and acute kidney injury before induction therapy was conducted. ⋯ Dialysate saturation of arsenic species was remarkable, especially for AsIII. Complete remission was achieved and renal function recovered. In this study, ATO can be used safely and effectively to treat acute promyelocytic leukaemia patients undergoing CVVHD without dose adjustment.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyEffect of inotuzumab ozogamicin on the QT interval in patients with haematologic malignancies using QTc-concentration modelling.
The aim of this study was to characterize the effect of inotuzumab ozogamicin on QT interval in patients with B-cell malignancies. ⋯ Inotuzumab ozogamicin (1.8 mg m-2 per cycle) is not predicted to pose a clinically significant safety risk for QT prolongation in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia or non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Drug-induced linear immunoglobulin A bullous dermatosis: A French retrospective pharmacovigilance study of 69 cases.
Linear immunoglobin A (IgA) bullous dermatosis is a rare autoimmune dermatosis considered spontaneous or drug-induced (DILAD). We assessed all DILAD cases, determined the imputability score of drugs and highlighted suspected drugs. ⋯ There is no major clinical difference between DILAD and idiopathic linear IgA bullous dermatosis, but the former features a higher prevalence of patients mimicking TEN. VCM, suspected in more than half of the cases, might be responsible for more severe clinical presentations. We report three new putative drugs.
