Which is informing the pharmaceutical industry's use of customer insights ; was Swatch's realisation that people do not buy watches just to tell the time. They also want to say something about themselves. A simple insight, but when fully realised it allowed Swatch to re-invent their product by making fun, stylish and colourful watches that functioned more as an accessory than a timepiece. The watch was transformed from a special, infrequent purchase to an affordable fashion item. An entirely new market was created. This example shows all the characteristics of a good insight. It seems fresh, even obvious. It feels like an enduring truth about that consumer but is not bland. It is an idea that gets marketing teams excited because they can immediately see how it could re-invent a brand or inspire a communications campaign.

Mississippi law requires that Medicaid shall not reimburse for a brand name drug if an equally effective generic equivalent is available and the generic equivalent is the least expensive. The only exceptions to this policy are: Observed allergy to a component of the generic drug; or An attributable adverse event; or Drugs generally accepted as narrow therapeutic index NTI ; drugs. In the absence of a specific request for the brand name drug from the prescriber to the pharmacist, the pharmacist must follow standard practice guidelines for the State of Mississippi and fill the prescription with the generic equivalent. The prescriber must indicate the following on a written or faxed prescription: Brand name medically necessary or Dispense as written or Do not substitute. Prior authorization PA ; is required for any brand name multiple source drug that has a generic equivalent except NTI drugs. If a beneficiary requires a brand name multi-source drug, the prescriber must request a prior authorization by seeking approval from DOM's Pharmacy Benefits Manager. The following medications are identified as NTI drugs: Coumadin Dilantin Lanoxin Synthroid Tegretol and diazepam.

Organosulfurs are important food chemicals that are part of the allium family and there have been studies reporting health benefits from foods containing them. These compounds are found in garlic, leeks, onions, chives, scallions, and shallots. A review of 300 studies concluded that people who eat raw or cooked garlic regularly experience about two-thirds the risk of colorectal cancer as people who eat little or none. Another analysis, however, found the available evidence about garlic to be inconclusive. Garlic supplements, in any case, do not appear to be protective. Fiber A number of studies had reported protection from fiber in vegetables and fruits. Research now suggests, however, that the benefits observed in high- fiber diets were probable due to the fact that such diets were usually also low in fat. Two studies reported no difference in the development of colorectal polyps with high or low intake of fiber. In any case, fiber, which is only found in plant products, may be beneficial for the heart and have other health advantages. Fats and Oils Saturated Fats and Trans-fatty Oils. Some studies had found an association between colon cancer and consumption of saturated fats found primarily in animal fats ; . The association is not altogether clear, however, and more recent evidence has not supported a strong link. Some experts suggest that the real hazard is iron from red meat, which is often high in saturated fats and may have confused study results [ see below ]. Of further interest, however, is a 2001 study that reported a possible link between colon cancer and trans fatty acids, which are partially hydrogenated oils found in stick margarine, fried foods and commercial baked goods. The association is supported by known chemical effects of these manufactured fats, and more research is warranted. Olive Oil. Certain oils may be beneficial. Olive oil, for example, may be protective, according to animal and human population studies. Some evidence suggests that it reduces levels of deoxycholic acid, an acid found in bile that has tumor-promoting properties. Plant Sterols. Some reports suggested that plant sterols, heart- healthy fats found in grains, nuts, some fruits and vegetables, might help prevent colon cancer, but a 2001 study in the Netherlands concluded that a high intake of plant sterols conferred no such benefits. Meat Some evidence suggests that red meat raises the risk for colon cancer. Red meat contains dietary iron, which has been associated with a higher risk for colon cancer. In fact, early results in 2000 from the largest study on diet and cancer to date have supported previous studies linking red meat with intestinal tumors and dilantin.

A second case study was presented on structure-based drug design and molecular modeling which was used for the search of ER- selective agonists for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Multiple X-ray co-crystal structures of modestly selective ligands complexed to both ER and ER, along with docking calculations were used to take advantage of a single conservative residue substitution in the ligand binding pocket to optimize ER selectivity. This approach led to the discovery of compounds such as ER-041, a 200-fold ER selective agonist Figure 10 ; . Figure 10.

In response: First, we thank Drs. Vaccarino and Krumholz for their flattering editorial about our article, particularly their praise of the contributions of the Framingham Heart Study to cardiovascular disease risk assessment 1 ; . We are also pleased to respond to Dr. Alderman's comments. We believe that critical differences in the designs of the studies may explain their disparate results. First, our report used data collected from a community-based sample. In contrast, Alderman and colleagues' study 2 ; was clinic-based and included only hypertensive patients. Second, residual confounding may also account for some of the differences. The NHANES I epidemiologic follow-up study 3 ; seems to have accounted for diabetes by excluding diabetic patients from the longitudinal analyses, but diabetes was identified solely by self-report. This may be important because up to 50% of persons with type 2 diabetes are unaware of their disease. In addition to inadequate adjustment for diabetes, the Chicago Heart Association study also failed to account for diuretic use 4 ; . We believe that the concept of causality also deserves attention. If a factor is believed to be a cause of a disease, exposure to the factor must precede the development of the disease. We excluded persons with clinically apparent cardiovascular disease CVD ; at baseline to determine whether a temporal relation between serum uric acid levels and CVD existed. In contrast, 17% of Alderman and colleagues' patients had known CVD at baseline 3 ; . Furthermore, serum uric acid level was no longer predictive of incident CVD in persons without CVD at baseline. Similarly, the Chicago Heart Association and the Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program studies also included persons with prevalent CVD. The serum uric acidCVD relation also lacks other evidence necessary to determine causality, including biological plausibility and consistency from study to study. In summary, on the basis of available evidence, we believe that serum uric acid may be a marker for poor prognosis in high-risk populations, such as persons with congestive heart failure, other overt CVD, and possibly hypertension. The association of serum uric acid with CVD risk in some observational studies is probably the result of residual confounding especially by diuretic use in persons without CVD, serum uric acid has no predictive value beyond that of established cardiovascular risk factors. On the basis of published observational studies to date, we conclude that there is insufficient evidence to support a causal role for serum uric acid in promotion of CVD. Our study provides additional evidence against a causal relation. Bruce F. Culleton, MD University of Calgary Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2N 2T9 Martin G.

1 mM CaCl2 ; , and is F380 zero Ca2 ; F380 saturating Ca2 ; . Frames were not averaged. A ratio pair was taken every second. Microinjection. Microinjection of indicator dyes and signaling molecules was performed using a piezoelectric cell penetrator system Burleigh, Rochester, NY ; mounted on the stage of a Zeiss Axiovert inverted microscope and Attofluor digital imaging system Rockville, MD ; . The entire apparatus was additionally mounted on a vibration-free platform Vibraplane, Kinetic Systems, Boston, MA ; . Femtotip pipettes of 0.5 0.2 m tip diameter were purchased. All test solutions were solubilized in standard microinjection buffer, which was twice filtered through a 0.22-micron filter. The pipettes were mounted in a universal capillary holder Brinkmann Instruments ; , which was connected to a pressure injector Pneumatic Picopump, World Precision Instruments, Sarasota, FL ; . After the injection tip was located on high power and positioned to approach the cells of interest, the piezoelectric step driver was used to make 1- m jumps toward the cell, and injection under a positive pressure of 20 psi was performed. An injection was accompanied by a rapid withdrawal of the tip after injection was performed. The success of the injection was monitored by observing that the cell maintained its morphology and its ability to retain the sulforhodamine dye excitation 560 nm, emission 630 nm ; . Test cells were loaded with fura 2 as described previously, and after injection immediate examinations for [Ca2 ]i were made. Data presentation. Results are presented as means SE, significance level of P 0.05 by Student's t-test. Results have been calculated only from those neurons having basal [Ca2 ]i levels of 20 and 100 nM. Neurons that did not meet these criteria were felt to be damaged and or leaky and were excluded from study. At the time of experiments, two criteria were used to determine that the cells of interest were neurons as opposed to glial cells: 1 ; morphology, where myenteric neurons at 35 days are compact, phase bright, and have few or no processes, and glia have a larger, dense nucleus with wide surrounding cytoplasm, and 2 ; KCl depolarization, as the coverslips were superfused with 55 mM KCl at the end of each experiment. KCl increases neuronal intracellular Ca2 , whereas glial cells do not respond. A neuron was judged to have responded to an agonist if [Ca2 ]i doubled the baseline value. A neuron was judged to be a nonresponder if it met the criterion for being a neuron but did not respond to the agonist. Peak [Ca2 ]i was measured as the highest Ca2 concentration achieved during exposure to the agonist. In this study, n equals the number of neurons. One guinea pig yielded 810 coverslips. Dissection techniques, tissue preparation, medium, and reagent vendors remained constant throughout the study. Coverslips were chosen at random, and at least three coverslips were examined for each experimental condition. Only one high-power microscope field was used from each coverslip. 7.7.4.3 Other effects of CRHTTs People found treatment by CRHTTs to be more acceptable participant more satisfied, less likely to leave the study early ; than standard care. The review found insufficient evidence to determine the effect of CRHTTs on death rates, and evidence for CRHTTs improving mental state and global functioning was either limited or insufficient to determine, compared with standard care. There is limited evidence that people cared for by CRHTTs are more satisfied with services at 6 months, 12 months and 20 months e.g. Satisfaction Scale at 20 months: n 137, WMD 5.40, 95% CI 6.89 to 3.91 ; . Ib ; There is strong evidence that people cared for by CRHTTs are less likely to leave treatment early leaving the study early at 12 months: n 600, RR 0.72, 95% CI 0.55 to 0.95; NNT 13, 95% CI 7 to 100 ; . Ia ; There is insufficient evidence to determine if CRHTTs are associated with an increase in the rate of attempted suicide n 250, RR 1.33, 95% CI 0.87 to 2.03 ; . Ib and cozaar.

Examples of Significant and Non-Significant Medication Errors": Some of these errors are identified as significant. This designation is based on expert opinion without regard to the status of the resident. Most experts concluded that the significance of these errors, in and of themselves, have a high potential for creating problems for the typical long term care facility resident. Those errors identified as nonsignificant have also been designated primarily on the basis of the nature of the drug. Resident status and frequency of error could classify these errors as significant. Examples of Medication Errors Detected Omissions Examples Drug ordered but not administered at least once ; : DRUG ORDER SIGNIFICANCE Haldol 1mg BID NS * Motrin 400mg TID NS Quinidine 200mg TID S * Tearisol Drops 2 both eyes TID NS Metamucil one packet BID NS Multivitamin one daily NS Mylanta Susp. one oz., TID AC NS Nitrol Oint. one inch S * Not Significant * Significant Unauthorized Drug Examples Drugs administered without a physician's order ; : DRUG ORDER SIGNIFICANCE Feosol NS Coumadin 4mg S Zyloprim 100mg NS Tylenol 5 gr NS Motrin 400mg NS Wrong Dose Examples: DRUG ORDER ADMINISTERED Timoptic 0.25% Three drops one drop in the in each eye left eye TID Digoxin 0.125mg 0.25mg.

Vmuleus aug 2, 2003 4: stroke while taking cipro and coumadin dear k: i think i was incorrect in stating that there was case studies available on ciprofloxacin associated strokes. Adverse Events Occurring at an Incidence of 1% or More Among Klonopin-Treated Patients: Table 1 enumerates the incidence, rounded to the nearest percent, of treatment-emergent adverse events that occurred during acute therapy of panic disorder from a pool of two 6to 9-week trials. Events reported in 1% or more of patients treated with Klonopin doses ranging from 0.5 to 4 mg day ; and for which the incidence was greater than that in placebo-treated patients are included. The prescriber should be aware that the figures in Table 1 cannot be used to predict the incidence of side effects in the course of usual medical practice where patient characteristics and other factors differ from those that prevailed in the clinical trials. Similarly, the cited frequencies cannot be compared with figures obtained from other clinical investigations involving different treatments, uses and investigators. The cited figures, however, do provide the prescribing physician with some basis for estimating the relative contribution of drug and nondrug factors to the side effect incidence in the population studied.
