Objectives The aim of this study was to assess apixaban prescribing practices for stroke prevention in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), and to examine the factors contributing to dosing inappropriateness at a large academic medical institution in Saudi Arabia. Methodology A retrospective cohort analysis of all adult patients with NVAF receiving apixaban for stroke prevention was conducted for the period from June 2015 to May 2019. Results Of the 1271 patients included in the analysis, inappropriate apixaban dosing was present in 223 (17.50%) patients and absent in 1048 (82.50%) patients. Among those who received an inappropriate apixaban dosage, 103 (46.19%) and 120 (53.81%) received an over- or under-dosed apixaban regimen, respectively. Increasing age, lower body mass index, a history of minor bleeding, concomitant antiplatelet therapy with either clopidogrel + aspirin or aspirin only, reduced renal function, and elevated CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score were significantly associated with increasing the risk of receiving an inappropriate apixaban dosage. Conclusion In patients with NVAF receiving apixaban for stroke prevention in this real-world analysis, > 80% were prescribed an appropriate dosage of apixaban. Proactive procedures, such as integrating an electronic dosing algorithm, educating healthcare providers, and involving clinical pharmacists in medication review, may help ensure the use of appropriate apixaban dosages.

Purpose We conducted this study to assess the real-world prevalence, nature, predictors, and clinical necessity of apixaban pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) drug interactions in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) at a tertiary medical institution in Saudi Arabia. Patients and Methods An observational retrospective cohort analysis was conducted in adult patients diagnosed with NVAF receiving apixaban for stroke prevention from the period of June 2015 to May 2019. Results Of the 1271 patients included in the analysis, 611 (48.1%) patients had potential PD– or PK–drug interactions with apixaban. Of those, 490 (38.6%) patients had potential PD drug–drug interactions (DDIs) and 121 (9.5%) patients had potential PK-DDIs. PD-DDIs with apixaban were mainly with antiplatelet therapy followed by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and antidepressants. PK-DDIs with apixaban were mainly with combined P-gp/CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers. History of minor bleeding was positively correlated with PD-DDIs with apixaban, ß coefficient = 0.455 (OR 1.58; 95% CI 1.01–2.45); p<0.05. History of acute coronary syndrome was positively correlated with PD-DDIs with apixaban, ß coefficient = 0.515 (OR 1.60; 95% CI 1.36–1.99); p<0.05. History of heart failure was positively correlated with PK-DDIs with apixaban, ß coefficient = 0.459 (OR 1.58; 95% CI 1.07–2.35); p<0.05. Almost 15% of the included patients had no clinical indication to receive the potential interacting drug with apixaban and about 20% of them were assuming an inappropriate apixaban dose according to the product package insert. Conclusion Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics interactions are common in more than half of the patients with NVAF receiving apixaban for stroke prevention in this real-world analysis. Some of these interacting medications are not indicated. Drug–drug interactions should always be considered and monitored with apixaban with a regular assessment of the need for any interacting medication.

Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development, 2019
Objectives: Our review is focused on aspirin efficacy as a chemo-preventive agent in colorectal cancer (CRC). Method: We have searched related articles in the following data base through Pub Med, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, Scopus and Google Scholar, restricted to the studies from the year 2000 to 2015. This review focuses on the therapeutic efficacy of aspirin in CRC chemo-prevention. We provide an overview of the association of aspirin treatment with reduction of CRC incidence, recurrence, and CRC-related mortality. Results: Regular use of aspirin was associated with significant reduction in the incidence and recurrence of colorectal cancer (p = 0.004), lower number of adenomas (p = 0.003), prolonged time of the first adenoma detection (p = 0.02) and lower risk of mortality (p > 0.001). Conclusion: Regular use of aspirin effectively reduces the incidence of colorectal cancer, its recurrence rate, and its specific mortality.

Clinical Epidemiology and Global Health, 2019
Background An Iodine deficiency disorder causes a major problem of brain damage in human beings and it is a major public health problem in India and worldwide. Objective To assess the knowledge, attitude and practice regarding use of iodized salt among households and to find the iodine content level at the traders and retail vendors in the rural study areas of the Marakkanam block. Methods A community based descriptive study on IDD was conducted in Marakkanam block population, Tamil Nadu with a sample size of 1233 individuals. Results The goiter prevalence was high in female gender when compared with male and higher goiter prevalence rate was found in the lower economic group. Among 1233 individuals, 796 (64.6%) were heard about iodized salt, whereas 437 (35.4%) were not heard about it. Only 294 (23.8%) of the respondents were aware that iodine deficiency caused some disease or health problem. Total of 525 salt sample packets was collected at the traders' level and it that 99% of the salt samples were iodized but most of them weren't adequately iodized. Conclusion From our present study, we have concluded that nearly one fourth of the study population didn't have enough knowledge about IDD and its consequences. To eliminate the lack of their knowledge on IDD by conducting an effective awareness programs. Try to eradicate IDD related diseases in the study areas by encouraging the community people to use iodized salt, encourage the retail shop owners, vendors to sell an adequate iodized salt packets and by reducing the cost of the iodized salt packets through Government of Tamilnadu or private Non – Governmental Organizations.

Journal of Mid Life Health, 2018
Background: Menopause is a physiological event in the women's life that can strongly affect the quality of life (QOL). More than 80% of women state that physical and physiological symptoms commonly accompany menopause and affect women's health and well-being. Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the menopause-related symptoms and their impact on the women's life. Materials and Methods: We have done a hospital-based descriptive study at the Outpatient and Inpatient Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre, Kochi, Kerala, with 150 postmenopausal women. The data were collected using the structured Menopause-specific QOL (MENQOL) questionnaire. The data were collected for 4 weeks from the Outpatient and Inpatient of Department of OBG with inclusion criteria of women who were coming as bystanders' age in between 50 and 65 years. Statistical Analysis: Mean, standard deviation, frequency, and proportions were calculated. The association between the MENQOL scores and selected demographic variables was found using one-way ANOVA test. Results: Among 150 postmenopausal women, 51 (34%) were in the age group of 55–59 years and more than half of the study population (n = 116, 77.3%) were married. The management of menopausal symptoms was followed by 28 (18.7%) women. The prevalence levels of the classical menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness in women aged 50–65 years were 75.3%, 58%, and 30.7%, respectively. The overall MENQOL mean total score was found as 112.47 ± 28.80. The majority of them experienced the mean physical symptom, which was found to be 62.05 ± 17.82. The associations between QOL scores with educational status and socioeconomic status were statistically highly significant with P < 0.01 and with marital status statistically significant with P < 0.05. Conclusion: From the present study, we have concluded that the postmenopause-related physical symptoms are frequently reported by the middle age group classifications. The association between QOL scores with educational status, socioeconomic status, and marital status was statistically highly significant. By nursing education, creating appropriate awareness and health education on the management of postmenopausal symptoms to that age group and it could be reducing the burden of the women population.

International Eye Science, 2017
AIM:To find the severities status of diabetic retinopathy(DR)among the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and to determine the association of the severities of diabetic retinopathy with duration of DR, HbA1C levels, history of hypertension, age and gender in the study population. METHODS:Hospital based cross-sectional studies with sample of 100 patients with DR were selected by using simple random sampling technique with a structured questionnaire was conducted in May to June 2012. The study participants those who with DR aged ≥35 years were included in this study and an oral consent was also collected from the study participants. Descriptive statistics, univariate and multivariate ordinal logistic regression analysis were performed. MS Excel spread sheet was used for data entry and data analysis was done by using SPSS 21.0 version. Statistical significance was taken as P<0.05. RESULTS:Out of 100 patients, mean age of the patient was found as 53.16±10.81(range 35-78)y. By univariate analysis, there was a positive relationship between diabetic retinopathy severity and age(P<0.01), duration of DM(P<0.001), HbA1C levels(P<0.001), history of hypertension, family history of DM(P<0.05)were highly significant, high density lipoprotein(HDL)(mmol/L)and age were not significant with P>0.05 by Mann Whitney u-test. All these factors were found as independent risk factors with the severity of DR except the factor age. CONCLUSION:This study was concluded that the duration of DM, HbA1C levels, family history of DM, History of hypertension and gender were independently associated with severity of DR. However, the factors like age and HDL weren't significant with severity of DR in multivariate analysis. Therefore, by using the availability of the existing treatments and controlling in time, which can prevent and free from the vision threatening diseases or delay the occurrence of DR in their life.

BACKGROUND Evidence suggests that patients who are more satisfied with their treatment show better adherence with the prescribed therapy. Although there is valuable data about medication adherence among renal transplant recipients (RTRs), there is a limited literature about their treatment satisfaction and its relation to adherence. The aim of the present study was to investigate factors that can predict medication adherence and to explore the relationship between treatment satisfaction and medication adherence in renal transplant recipients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Adult RTRs were included in the study using convenient sampling. The participants were asked to complete the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) and Treatment Satisfaction Scale TSQM 1.4 in addition to several socio-demographic and treatment-related data. The results were statistically analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression modelling in a stepwise procedure. RESULTS A total of 151 RTRs were included in the study, of which 52 were classified as adherent (34%). Univariate analysis showed that, in comparison with non-adherent RTRs, the adherent group demonstrated significantly higher satisfaction scores in the domains of convenience (96.6±8.7 vs. 85.3±19.3), side effects (95.9±14.1 vs. 82.6±24.1), and global satisfaction (93.4±9.8 vs. 86.7±16.7), while they had marginally higher satisfaction scores in the effectiveness domain (90.4±11.6 vs. 86.5±14.5). Results from multiple logistic regression showed that higher likelihood of adherence was significantly associated with increased satisfaction score in the convenience domain [AOR=1.76, 95% CI=(1.21, 2.55); p=0.003] and marginally related to increased satisfaction scores in the side effects domain [AOR=1.31, 95% CI=(0.99, 1.74); p=0.061]. Male RTRs were significantly more likely to be adherent than female RTRs [AOR=2.23, 95% CI=(1.02, 4.84); p=0.043]. CONCLUSIONS Although the adherence rate among RTRs is relatively low, males and RTRs who reported higher treatment satisfaction (convenience and side effects domains) showed better medication adherence. It is recommended that interventional programs for the improvement of dialysis patient adherence should be developed, in addition to designing strategies to improve treatment convenience and knowledge of medication side effects.
Biostatistics teaching to the undergraduate medical students through research-oriented medical education posting program in a Teaching Medical Institute in Coastal Area of Pondicherry: An experience of a biostatistician
Senthilvel Vasudevan
Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2016
Sir, Research-oriented medical education (ROME) in India is very much important in undergraduate (UG) medical education. This type of training is very much essential and useful for UG medical students. Then, only their research knowledge will be increased at MBBS level, and they definitely participated in the research activities, in their future also. By this, medical educators have to improve the medical education. For this, medical educators have enough and updated knowledge to teach to the medical students.[1] Nowadays, this type of training will be encouraged is essential and very important to medical research, and to our nation viz., 48th World Health Assembly recommended need of medical schools for their contribution in health care delivery, research, and its implications, preventive and promotional activities in community level.[2] I would like to share my personal experience in ROME in the Department of Community Medicine in Pondicherry Institute of Medical Sciences, during the year 2008–2010 and I have been worked in the same college as Assistant Professor in Biostatistics up to March 13, 2014, and I taught the subject biostatistics to the first part of the third professional students. Under this ROME, the students were posted in the Community Medicine Department for 1 full month in 24 h in a week. The entire batch of students was divided into four groups by Head of the Department. First of all, the faculties in the department choose one individual topic for each four groups. Then, the faculties explain all the steps involved in the research methodology, how to conduct research, and how to frame a questionnaire or proforma.[3] In ROME, my part was explaining all the concepts of biostatistics, its tools, how to make a flow chart for the methodology, how to arrive the sample size, various study designs, how to draw the diagrams and graphs by manually, various statistical tests (t-test, F-test, χ2-test, correlation, etc.), how to enter the data in Microsoft (MS) Excel 2007 (Microsoft Company, USA), how to draw the diagrams in Excel, how to enter the data in the questionnaire and how to transfer the data to Excel and Excel to Statistical Software Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 16.0 version, IBM Corporation, Armonk, New York), how to analyze the collected mass (raw) data (primary data), how to do the analysis with the help of statistical software and how to write the results according to the analysis of data for all the four groups of students. In the analysis part, I was taught how to tabulate the analyzed data (i.e., result), to find percentage, and to present the analyzed the data in terms of diagrams and graphs like bar chart - vertical and horizontal, multiple bar chart, histogram, percentage bar diagram (sub-divided bar diagram), pie diagram and exploded pie diagram, line diagram, scatter diagram and graphs), how to find odds ratio, the association between variables (χ2-test), correlate between variables (correlation r value), and how to write the conclusion according to the analyzed data (result). The students were prepared Gantt chart for their respective research. For that, they had been divided the whole month as follows: They took 12 working days for data collection, and 6 working days for entering the data in MS Excel 2007. In those 6 days, all the four batches of students underwent training in MS Excel 2007 and in SPSS 16.0. For analyzing the data, they spent 3 days, and they took 5 days to prepare the results and to make the final research report in 2 days. In the rest of the days, they conduct some awareness program. By this ROME program, the UG medical student's knowledge would increase in research and get some interest to do research in their future studies. Nowadays some of the students are showing a keen interest in doing Indian Council of Medical Research Short Term Studentship (ICMR STS) projects.[4] I am very proud to mention here that my college student's strength only displayed more in the list of a selection of ICMR STS 2009. All the four groups of students were involved in the competition which was grouped among them. Out of those four groups, one group only had applied the biostatistical tools properly, and the particular batch only won the best student's research project award. By this type of teaching, their skill was increased in the subject (biostatistics) and automatically their stage fears were eliminated. They proved their research work statistically by using biostatistics tools. The knowledge of Biostatistical tools and the usage of Statistical Software SPSS not only helps in their UG (MBBS) study but also it is very helpful to their research carried out in the form of clinical postings, and in future they will be posted as Compulsory Rotatory Residential Internship in the Department of Community Medicine for 2 months as per Medical Council of India norms and as well as in their post graduate (PG) (MD) study. This ROME experience will definitely be helpful to prepare their Dissertation/Project in PG (MD, MS., etc.) studies. The subject biostatistics is the most important subject for UG and PG students. So, the collaboration between statisticians and medical professionals are very important in the research. The similar suggestion was found in a study by Adams-Huet and Ahn have discussed that the increasing collaboration between statisticians and other specialties of medical professionals beginning with the preparation of protocol writing for any particular study and its development.[5] At the end of ROME, the MBBS Students would be getting an idea about the subject biostatistics. They will come to know that without biostatistical tools, there was no analyze, and there was no proof made in Medicine and Public Health. By ROME, they came to know how to prepare various types of tables and how to write the reports relating to their analysis, research, etc. For every batch of the UG students posted in ROME, in the Department of Community Medicine will be trained thoroughly in biostatistics and its applications, tools, statistical tests, diagrammatic representation, MS Excel 2007, and SPSS 16.0 version statistical software. From this, I would come to a conclusion the teaching subject of biostatistics is very much essential, need and important also. Research is very much essential for the UG medical students. Then only they will become a good physician and a good research in the India. By continuous treatment given by a doctor for a long period, then only they will come to know the technique of the line of treatment and the details of the diseases like H1N1, dengue and other vector borne diseases. Due to lack of faculties and time (working days), the research activities are very less in medical colleges in India. This is to be a change in future; they only good and efficient physicians would come out from each and every medical college in India. Some faculties only motivated their students for doing research. This mentality would also to be changed in due course. The present syllabus of medical education curriculum is very limited, and this is not sufficient to the present scenario of medical UG students. Hence, I request to revise the present curriculum of medical education and add more portions related to biostatistics in the UG medical education curriculum. Then only, they will learn about all the quantitative, qualitative and other high-level methods and techniques in their UG level studies. That is very much useful to their PG or higher level studies. So, I have to conclude that the biostatistics is very important and necessary subject in the medical education curriculum. Acknowledgment The author was very much thankful to Dr. (Brig.)
