Background: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most potent antacids used in clinical practice with greater safety and efficacy. Limited data are available on the usage of PPIs in Indian health-care settings. Our aim was to understand the usage pattern and potential drug interactions with concurrently administered medications employing a single-day cross-sectional study design. Methods: A prospective observational cross-sectional study conducted on a single day, at two tertiary care teaching hospitals in South India. Inpatients of above 18 years of age were included. Case profiles were reviewed and data were collected in predesigned forms and analyzed. Drug interactions were identified using Micromedex and Medscape drug-interaction databases. Results: A total of 797 case profiles screened from both the centers; 714 were prescribed with PPIs. In intensive care units (ICUs), the use of PPIs was highest with 95% of cases getting these drugs. A PPI was seen in about 93% of patients, who had more than or equal to 4 drugs in their prescriptions. Pantoprazole was the mostly prescribed PPI in around 90% of the cases. Around 33% of the PPIs usage was through IV (intravenous) route, and 75% of that use was seen in wards. Around 134 drug interactions were identified, of which 10 were of major severity. Conclusions: Around 90% of inpatients were prescribed with PPIs. Pantoprazole is the most commonly prescribed PPI (90%). The IV administration was seen more in wards than ICUs, and 10 major drug interactions were observed in this single-day study. Careful monitoring is needed to avoid serious drug interactions involving PPIs, and training programs should sensitize the clinicians on the evidence-based use of PPIs.

Abstract Introduction: Few data of long-term outcomes of cardiovascular (CVRF) risk factors of transgender women (TW) undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) are available. Objectives: Evaluate CV risk factors after long-term GAHT in TW. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 8 TW (average age of 34.0 ±4.8 yo), 8 matched CM and 8 CW on age, body mass index (BMI) and activity level. All TW were non-gonadectomized subjects and were in estrogen [(E); transdermal estradiol (n=2), oral estradiol (n=3) and conjugated estrogen (n=3)] plus cyproterone acetate (CA) (n=8) therapy in an average time of 15.6 ±8.7 years. Results: Total Testosterone (ng/dL) level of TW, CW and CM were 83,5 (range 12,0-637,0), 20,5 (range 12,0-41,0) and 480,5 (range 264,0-843,0), respectively. It was similar between TW and CW (p=0,7284) and different in the comparison TWvsCM (p=0,0325). In TW group, the median of blood glucose was 84 mg / dL, HBA1c 5.1%, total cholesterol 146 mg / dL, HDLc 43 mg / dL, LDLc 89 mg / dL and triglycerides 81.5 mg / dL. In the comparison with other groups, there was no difference from the statistical point of view. It is necessary to emphasize the HDLc of TW (43 mg/dL) which was exactly the same of CM (p>0,999) and lower than CW (60 mg/dL)(p=0,0720). Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP)(mmHg) of TW (126±13) was higher than that of CW (95±11;p<0.001) and equal to that of CM (115±9;p=0.1489). Regards Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) (mmHg), the medians of TW, CW and CM were 80, 60 and 80, respectively, and in the comparison TWxCW p = 0.0070 and TWxCM p> 0.9999. Discussion: Youth TW (16.3 ± 1.4 yo) taking an average estradiol dose of 1.5 ± 1.0 mg/day, with an average AGHT duration of 12.3 ± 9.9 months matched to controls on age and BMI did have higher HDL than CW and TW participants were more insulin resistant than CM. About SBP of that youth TW (107 ± 12), it was lower than CW 113 ± 7 (p>0,05) and CM 116 ± 8 (p<0,001). Other previous study showed that after 6 months of estradiol use, in doses ranging from 2 to 8 mg daily glucose enhanced 6 mg/dL (from 86 to 92) as well as TC from 170 to 178 mg/dL, HDLc from 50 to 54 mg/dL, TGL from 102 to 115 mg/dL, and LDL did not change (93), while a systematic review and meta-analysis showed increased only in TG levels. SBP and DBP increased on average of 7,2 mmHg and 5,7 mmHg, respectively. Conclusion: Metabolic findings observed after the first few months of TW GAHT appear to remain at long term, except for HDLc. SBP and DBP appear to increase in the long term, after a drop initially observed.

The prevalence of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is increasing in both developed and developing countries. Uncontrolled risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, and fewer activities are the main causes of ACS recurrence within 30 days after the acute presentation. This study aims to analyze risk factors related to the recurrence rate of ACS patients in Pakraman and non-Pakraman villages in Buleleng Regency, Bali Province. Observational analytics with Cross-Sectional Study are used in this study involving 130 patients within 1 month. Data is collected through two (2) stages using a questionnaire. The bivariate analysis shows that both smoking groups (p = 0.003 and p = 0.008) and hypertension groups (p = 0.02 and p = 0.01) are associated with ACS recurrence, while physical activity groups are not related (p = 0.455 and p = 0.565). Logistic regression results show that smoking (5.633) is highly associated with ACS recurrence in Pakraman villages, while hypertension (4.784) is highly associated with ACS recurrence in non-Pakraman villages. ACS handling is important in the acute period and in the long-term to prevent the risk of recurrence.

Abstract Objective. To understand the prevalence of domestic violence (DV) in Wuhan, China, to explore the correlation between domestic violence and husbands. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted in a community health center in Wuhan from June 2015 to December 2015. Participants were 1015 women who came to the center for gynecological examination. They were assessed using WHO violence against women instrument to evaluate the prevalence of domestic violence. Chi-square test, Wilcoxon rank test and unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the possible risk factors of domestic violence. Results. The prevalence of domestic violence was 29.36% (298/1015). The risk factors included heavy physical labor (OR=3.56, 95%CI:1.63~7.78), long-term drinking (OR=1.61, 95%CI:1.20~2.16), overweight or obesity (OR=1.38, 95%CI:1.02~1.88) and long-term smoking (OR=1.02, 95%CI:1.01~1.04). Protective factors were higher education (OR=0.78, 95%CI: 0.66-0.93). Conclusion. The prevalence of domestic violence in women from Wuhan, China was common. We might decrease the occurrence of the possible risk factors of domestic violence to control it.
