Cytotoxic Effects

In addition to the spectrum of antibacterial activity of antimicrobial medicines and their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, their safety is also an important issue. Currently, there is no consensus on the fluoroquinolone toxicity. The purpose of this study was to compare in vitro the overall cytotoxic effect of six antibacterial fluoroquinolone eye drops: 1. Cipromed™ (ciprofloxacin 0.3 %; Sentiss Pharma Pvt. Ltd., India); 2. Floxal™ (ofloxacin 0.3 %; Dr. Gerhard Mann, Chem.-Pharm. Fabrik GmbH, Germany); 3. Oftaquix™ (levofloxacin 0.5 %; Santen Oy, Finland); 4. Signicef® (levofloxacin 0.5 %; Sentiss Pharma Pvt. Ltd., India); 5. Vigamox® (moxifloxacin 0.5 %; Alcon Laboratories, Inc., USA); 6. Zymar® (gatifloxacin 0.3 %; Allergan Sales LLC, USA). The study showed the possibility of using cultured cells for comparative evaluation of cytotoxic effects of various ophthalmic preparations. We found that tested antimicrobial medicines may have a cytostatic effect in vitro and differ in their cytotoxic potential.

The Relationship

A custom in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid fitting was compared to two over-the-ear (OTE) hearing aid fittings for each of 9 subjects with mild to moderately severe hearing losses. Speech intelligibility via the three instruments was compared using the Speech Intelligibility Rating (SIR) test. The relationship between functional gain and coupler gain was compared for the ITE and the higher rated OTE instruments. The difference in input received at the microphone locations of the two types of hearing aids was measured for 10 different subjects and compared to the functional gain data. It was concluded that (a) for persons with mild to moderately severe hearing losses, appropriately adjusted custom ITE fittings typically yield speech intelligibility that is equal to the better OTE fitting identified in a comparative evaluation; and (b) gain prescriptions for ITE hearing aids should be adjusted to account for the high-frequency emphasis associated with in-the-concha microphone placement.
