We have been focused on identifying a structurally different next generation inhibitor to MK-5172 (our Ns3/4a protease inhibitor currently under regulatory review), which would achieve superior pangenotypic activity with acceptable safety and pharmacokinetic profile. These efforts have led to the discovery of a novel class of HCV NS3/4a protease inhibitors containing a unique spirocyclic-proline structural motif. The design strategy involved a molecular-modeling based approach, and the optimization efforts on the series to obtain pan-genotypic coverage with good exposures on oral dosing...

The increased use of indwelling catheters has led to an increased number of deaths due to central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI). Improving CLABSI outcomes requires the identification of clinical characteristics affecting drug selection and factors associated with poor prognosis. The medical records of inpatients admitted to St. Marianna University School of Medicine between April 1, 2010 and March 31, 2013 were evaluated for the results of catheter tip cultures. The clinical characteristics of these cases and the characteristics of the pathogens involved were investigated to identify prognostic factors...

Although parenteral nutrition (PN) is life-sustaining, it is associated with many complications including parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) and central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLASBIs), which carry a high morbidity and mortality and impose a burden on the health care system. Evidence has emerged that the dose and composition of intravenous lipid products may alter the incidence of PNALD. However, other patient and PN-related factors, such as prematurity, birth weight, and gastrointestinal anatomy and function, are important...

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) may be a consequence of increased forearm flexor activity secondary to muscle dysfunction in the neck. Eighteen CTS patients, with an average duration of symptoms of 10 months, were studied. Standardized nerve-conduction studies were administered before and after treatment. Surface-EMG techniques measured sternomastoid and cervical paraspinal muscle activity and flexor and extensor muscle activity during head movement. Both sets of neck muscles were found to be asymmetrical when compared side to side...

BACKGROUND: Central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) is a known complication of central line use. Salvage of infected central lines with ethanol lock therapy (ELT) with systemic antimicrobials may be an alternative treatment option in children. METHODS: Retrospective review was performed in children with CLASBI who underwent short-dwell ELT (70% ethanol, 4- to 25-hour dwell times ≤3 days) with systemic antimicrobials from January 1, 2007 to July 15, 2009...

Pursuing our earlier efforts in the himbacine-based thrombin receptor antagonist area, we have synthesized a series of compounds that incorporate heteroatoms in the C-ring of the tricyclic motif. This effort has resulted in the identification of several potent heterocyclic analogs with excellent affinity for the thrombin receptor. Several of these compounds demonstrated robust inhibition of platelet aggregation in an ex vivo model in cynomolgus monkeys following oral administration. A detailed profile of 28b, a benchmark compound in this series, with a Ki of 4...

Services offered by voluntary organisations are an integral but often overlooked component of health and social care. Of late, there has been a renewed interest in voluntary welfare provision as a viable alternative to state and market. Recent developments in welfare provision in Canada appear to have brought greater social care roles for the voluntary sector at the same time as new and arguably more restrictive funding and accountability mechanisms are being imposed by different arms of the state. To explore these issues more closely, the present paper examines the impressions and experiences of voluntary and formal sector providers of services for senior citizens and people with disabilities in a remote urban centre (population less than 100 000) in the interior of British Columbia, Canada...

The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the vinyl pyridine region of himbacine derived thrombin receptor (PAR-1) antagonists is described. A 2-vinylpyridyl ring substituted with an aryl or a heteroaryl group at the 5-position showed the best overall PAR-1 affinity and pharmacokinetic properties. One of the newly discovered analogs bearing a 5-(3-pyridyl) substituent showed excellent PAR-1 affinity (Ki = 22 nM) and oral activity with reduced ClogP and improved off-target selectivity compared to an earlier development candidate...

The metabolism of our prototypical thrombin receptor antagonist 1, Ki = 2.7 nM, was studied and three major metabolites (2, 4, and 5) were found. The structures of the metabolites were verified independently by synthesis. Compound 4 was shown to be a potent antagonist of the thrombin receptor with a Ki = 11 nM. Additionally, compound 4 showed a 3-fold improvement in potency with respect to 1 in an agonist-induced ex-vivo platelet aggregation assay in cynomolgus monkeys after oral administration; this activity was sustained with 60% inhibition observed at 24 h post-dose...

The concept of social care is valuable in examining how responsibilities for social support are distributed amongst private, public and voluntary interests. We argue that social care is embedded in place, by which we mean the social relations that determine who provides what are closely connected with the physically bounded settings of meaning and interaction in which these activities and relations occur. To illustrate the usefulness of these conceptions, we present a case study of the restructuring of work and welfare arrangements in Mackenzie, British Columbia, a remote and resource-dependent community in the province's northern interior...

The prototypical PAR-1 antagonist 55 showed a Ki of 2.7 nM in the binding assay, making it the most potent PAR-1 antagonist reported. 55 was highly active in several functional assays, showed excellent oral bioavailability in rat and monkey models, and showed complete inhibition of agonist-induced ex vivo platelet aggregation in cynomolgus monkeys after oral administration...

The use of surface electromyographic (SEMG) techniques in evaluating production line workstations is illustrated through the use of two case studies. Evaluation procedures are introduced. The results illustrate how SEMG can be used to document the strain upon muscles of the neck and shoulders and how workstations may be altered to comply with government regulations.

REVIEW

A biomechanical perspective of the carpal tunnel (CT) is reviewed that lends itself to an understanding of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) from a broader pathophysiological perspective than focusing narrowly or solely on nerve disturbance in the extremity. A wider integration of physiological systems in the etiology and maintenance of CTS is proposed that links muscular dysfunction in the neck and possibly elsewhere to dysfunction at the CT. A significant subset of individuals who develop CTS have a primary contribution from muscular dysfunctions rather distal to the CT itself...

REVIEW
L Clasby, M A Young
Injuries from recreational and competitive sports activities have increased significantly during the past two decades. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most commonly injured knee ligament in athletes. As the ACL is the knee's primary intra-articular stabilizer, injuries to this ligament can seriously alter athletes' physical activity levels or end their sports careers. The medical and surgical treatment options for a sports-related ACL injury depend upon the age of the patient, the type and degree of the ACL injury, and the anticipated future activity level of the athlete...

One of the greatest fears of children undergoing surgery is separation from their parents. Children for whom preoperative sedation is contraindicated often endure the distress of this separation and the beginning of anesthesia surrounded by masked strangers. Those who receive sedation often experience the invasiveness of a medication administered rectally or intramuscularly or the insertion of an IV line. Until recently, the doors to the operating room remained closed to family members. Like other hospitals throughout the country, however, Children's Hospital in Boston has responded to the concerns of parents and staff members by implementing a parent-present anesthesia induction program...
