The frequency of drug-induced pancreatitis (LIP) is from 2 to 5% of all cases of acute pancreatitis (OP), but it is much more common in risk groups – among children and HIV-infected patients. The use of a number of drugs (drugs) is associated with the development of lipids, among them a special place is occupied by antitumor drugs due to the great medical and social significance of oncological diseases and the appearance in recent years of a large number of new antitumor drugs. The purpose of this review was to review the literature data on antitumor drugs, the use of which is associated with the development of lipids. LI OP developed in 1.8% of patients treated with nivolumab or pembroluzumab. In total, in 14 phase 1-3 studies on the efficacy and safety of ipilimumab, the development of OP was reported in less than 1% of the subjects. Therapy with molecular-targeted targeted drugs, such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) or other representatives of the kinase inhibitor class, is also associated with the development of OP. The HP database of the World Health Organization (WHO, World Health Organization Adverse Drug Reaction database) contains reports of individual clinical cases of OP development during treatment with proteosome inhibitors and antibody-drug conjugates. It is known that the following antitumor drugs are also associated with the development of pancreatitis: 6-mercaptopurine, L-asparaginase, tamoxifen, cisplatin, cytarabine, ifosfamide, paclitaxel, docetaxel, oxaliplatin, capecitabine, periwinkle alkaloids, cytosine, cisplatin, interferon alpha-2b, doxorubicin, tamoxifen, gefitinib, vinorelbine, levamizole, methotrexate, 5-fluorouracil, capecitabine, trans-retinoic acid.

Introduction As SARS-CoV-2 disproportionately affects adults, the COVID-19 pandemic vaccine response will rely on adult immunisation infrastructures. Aim To assess adult immunisation programmes in World Health Organization (WHO) Member States. Methods We evaluated country reports from 2018 on adult immunisation programmes sent to WHO and UNICEF. We described existing programmes and used multivariable regression to identify independent factors associated with having them. Results Of 194 WHO Member States, 120 (62%) reported having at least one adult immunisation programme. The Americas and Europe had the highest proportions of adult immunisation programmes, most commonly for hepatitis B and influenza vaccines (> 47% and > 91% of countries, respectively), while Africa and South-East Asia had the lowest proportions, with < 11% of countries reporting adult immunisation programmes for hepatitis B or influenza vaccines, and none for pneumococcal vaccines. In bivariate analyses, high or upper-middle country income, introduction of new or underused vaccines, having achieved paediatric immunisation coverage goals and meeting National Immunisation Technical Advisory Groups basic functional indicators were significantly associated (p < 0.001) with having an adult immunisation programme. In multivariable analyses, the most strongly associated factor was country income, with high- or upper-middle-income countries significantly more likely to report having an adult immunisation programme (adjusted odds ratio: 19.3; 95% confidence interval: 6.5–57.7). Discussion Worldwide, 38% of countries lack adult immunisation programmes. COVID-19 vaccine deployment will require national systems for vaccine storage and handling, delivery and waste management to target adult risk groups. There is a need to strengthen immunisation systems to reach adults with COVID-19 vaccines.
