3. National DPP Program Progress Report: For better performance and more frequent progress monitoring, the DPP has requested that the NACP to compile reports and requests every six months. This report, together with a duly filled shipping advice, is sent to the DPP program manager at Axios for initial review. After initial review, Axios sends its recommendations to senior Pfizer and I.M.A. reviewers for refinement and approval. 4. Multi-stage Product Delivery Reports: a ; The NACP affirms receipt of the Airway Bill and communicates to MSD; b ; MSD notifies the NACP of product location after it clears the consignment with a tax exemption and places the product in its storage depots countrywide; and c ; hospitals and local MSD depots notify the NACP when the institutions pick up their designated allotments from the depot. The NACP reporting framework has some distinct advantages. The system is centralized and gives an overall country perspective if all inputs are timely. Moreover, the stakeholders, i.e. the institutions, DPP partners, NACP and MSD, all work together to achieve the same objective. The centralized nature of this program makes for easy linkages between the DPP and other programs such as antiretroviral therapy ART ; roll-out and treatment of opportunistic infections OIs ; . DPP I.M.A. activities in Tanzania have reinforced the four steps in the process described above: 1. On-site training of over five hundred hospital staff in DPP management has helped double the countrywide number of DPP trained personnel over an eighteen month period. 2. On-site mentoring and ongoing availability has improved the number and the quality of the treatment facility.

As the armamentarium of inhaled corticosteroids increases, continued Dr. Szefler, "the challenge over the past 10 years has become the appropriate selection of the different products and formulations that have evolved and the respective dosages to use. In addition, concerns have arisen about longterm use and adverse effects of inhaled steroids." Nonetheless, Dr. Szefler urged participants to "refer to current guidelines, 2, 3 which acknowledge ICS as the cornerstone of therapy. We are awaiting new guidelines, which should only strengthen this position." Agreeing that the introduction of ICS has been "nothing short of a revolution, " Dr. Salgo wondered, "Is everybody happy with this revolution?.
Mentions of LSD, PCP, miscellaneous hallucinogens, and illicit combinations remained stable from 2000 to 2001 Tables 3.22, 3.24, 3.26, and 3.34 ; . Of these drugs, only LSD and PCP had 100 or more mentions in any metropolitan area in 2001.
To the best of my recollection I can recall saying to Dr. V CPsych, "These are the two letters I have had from Michael. He is obviously in a dreadful state. Can we do anything for him now?" to which Dr. V - CPsych said, "No, but if he is released from prison we will do something." To the best of my memory, we were quite clear that this was the sort of time when a hospital admission for detoxification might have been appropriate, especially as Michael mentioned that in his letter.

There were no applications for additional medicines for this Section and no additional comments were received. The Subcommittee noted that diloxanide was not licensed in the UK for use in children 25 kg body weight. Diloxanide was medicine of choice for asymptomatic patients with E. histolytica cysts in the faeces and has a role as adjunctive medicine against hepatic amoebiasis, given after a course of metronidazole or tinidazole. Metronidazole is not licensed for use in neonates or children under 1 year while tinidazole is licensed for intestinal amoebiasis in children age not specified ; . The Subcommittee therefore recommended that metronidazole and tinidazole which would be covered by square box listing of metronidazole ; be endorsed as essential medicines in the forms currently available in the 15th EML. The Subcommittee endorsed the inclusion of diloxanide in the EMLc, with a note to indicate it should be used in children 25kg. The Subcommittee requested a review of diloxanide for the next meeting, with efficacy and safety data compared to oral paromomycin for amoebiasis and sustiva.

SUNSCREEN MARKET ANALYSIS: THE EVOLUTION AND USE OF UVA-1 ACTIVES J F Nash, PhD, Procter & Gamble Company, Cincinnati, OH, United States, Paul Tanner, BS, Procter & Gamble Company, Cincinnati, OH, United States, Tracy Grosick, BS, Procter & Gamble Company, Cincinnati, OH, United States, Mary Zimnawoda, Procter & Gamble Company, Cincinnati, OH, United States Protection from solar ultraviolet UV ; radiation remains a top priority of the dermatological community. Daily application of sunscreen products is recommended by health care professionals as part of a strategy to reduce skin damage from exposure to solar light. However, such routine use of sunscreens by patients and consumers varies and depends on many factors including skin type, beliefs regarding skin care, habits and practices, and knowledge about exposure to the sun and long term effects on skin. These inconsistencies in awareness, attitude and practice suggest that consumers do not necessarily follow the same linear logic that sunscreen manufacturers use to develop and promote such products. Despite this apparent difference, consumers have benefited from the considerable growth and variety of sunscreen products. Moreover, key regulatory decisions such as the approval of avobenzone and zinc oxide, alone and in combination with other UV filters, have played a very important role in providing consumers much needed protection against long wavelength i.e. UVA-1 or 340-400 nm ; solar UV. While the progression of the UV protection marketed is noteworthy, our previous work in 1997 found that sunscreen products differ radically in claims and expression of efficacy, particularly UVA protection. Thus, we conducted an extensive examination of the US sunscreen market evaluating efficacy and performance claims. A total of 188 currently marketed US sunscreen products, including mass and department store products, recreational and daily sunscreens, and a variety of forms lotions, creams, oils and sprays ; were analyzed for label claims SPF, UVA, photoaging ; , active ingredients i.e. UV filters ; , and efficacy SPF and UVA ; . This poster will review the key findings of our survey that reveal the common use of nine sunscreen actives and the large increase in long wave UVA UVA-1 ; ingredients. In contrast, we will also present the significant need for UVA method claims guidelines as many products currently claim UVA efficacy, yet do not contain UVA-1 filters. Based on our evaluation, there remains a clear and urgent need for a reproducible test to measure UVA efficacy and a consumer understandable means of communicating this information.

Acceleration of literacy The final effect of meta-linguistic awareness in relation to bilingualism is the likely effect of an acceleration of literacy. It is likely that this acceleration will follow a lag during which time the learner sorts out the similarities and differences between the two codes. However it is important to see this slight time delay in a learner's literacy as an investment in eventual higher levels of performance and awareness and methotrexate.

Clinical comment In patients receiving mercaptopurine PURINETHOL ; or azathioprine IMURAN ; , the concomitant administration of 300 to 600 mg of ZYLOPRIM per day will require a reduction in dose to approximately onethird or one-fourth of the usual dose of mercaptopurine or azathioprine. Subsequent adjustment of doses of mercaptopurine or azathioprine should be made on the basis of therapeutic response and any toxic effects. The clinical significance has not been demonstrated. The mechanism of the interaction may be explained by xanthine oxidase being involved in the biotransformation of theophylline in man. Theophylline levels should be monitored in patient starting or increasing allopurinol therapy. However, such combined therapy may be useful in achieving minimum serum uric acid levels provided that total urinary uric acid load does not exceed the competence of the patient's renal function.

The Application of Thermal Analysis to Silicone Polymers J. Joannou TA Instruments Ltd., Europe House, Bilton Centre, Cleave Road, Leatherhead, Surrey KT22 7UQ Silicone polymers now touch everybody's life in some way or another. In our homes, as a sealant in bathrooms and kitchens, on our footwear, where it is used as a waterproofing agent in shoe polish, in children's toys as flexible monsters or "Silly Putty", and even next to our skin where it is used in spectacles, baby feeding items and of course breast implants. However as the number of applications grow so more tools are required to fully investigate and characterise these materials. Thermal Analysis has a long history in characterising carbon based polymers and these new silicone based polymers offer a new and challenging area for the thermal analyst. A number of standard silicone compounds were examined, along with some commercially available products based on silicone. These were looked at using a number of thermal techniques including DSC, Modulated temperature DSC, TGA, DMA and DEA. The presentation will show how thermal analysis can be used to evaluate and characterise these polymer materials with reference to their everyday use and try to highlight further areas of research. It will also show how these compounds will be pushing the instrumentation to it limits of operation in order to achieve the results and aricept.

Disease commonly occurs in the latter half of life among those with pre-exisiting lung disease such as previous tuberculosis, chronic bronchitis and emphysema, and less commonly bronchiectasis. In my experience, infection with mycobacteria is strongly associated with smoking. A recent survey of over forty patients fom Liverpool showed only one to be a life long nonsmoker. 3 ; Patients may present with acute or chronic illness that is radiographically and clinically indistinguishable from tuberculosis. Symptoms are usually chronic and include cough with sputum and sometimes haemoptysis, weight loss, malaise and night sweats. Symptoms may be insidious and occur over many months before the patient presents. A recent study, looking at the symptomatic presentation of M.kansasii infection compared with tuberculosis, found that with exception of diabetes and alcohol intake, which favoured a diagnosis of tuberculosis, there were no features between the two, likely to be diagnostically helpful. 4 ; Some patients have disease presenting insidiously over more than a year. Weight loss and cachexia are often accompanied by long standing respiratory symptoms. These are often attributed to the pre-existing pulmonary disease. Mycobacterial infection may be missed if it is not considered and the appropriate investigations requested.

CONTRAINDICATIONS Thioguanine should not be used in patients whose disease has demonstrated prior resistance to this drug. In animals and humans, there is usually complete cross-resistance between PURINETHOL mercaptopurine ; and TABLOID brand Thioguanine. WARNINGS SINCE DRUGS USED IN CANCER CHEMOTHERAPY ARE POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ONLY PHYSICIANS EXPERIENCED WITH THE RISKS OF THIOGUANINE AND KNOWLEDGEABLE IN THE NATURAL HISTORY OF ACUTE NONLYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIAS ADMINISTER THIS DRUG. The most consistent, dose-related toxicity is bone marrow suppression. This may be manifested by anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, or any combination of these. Any one of these findings may also reflect progression of the underlying disease. Since thioguanine may have a delayed effect, it is important to withdraw the medication temporarily at the first sign of an abnormally large fall in any of the formed elements of the blood. There are individuals with an inherited deficiency of the enzyme thiopurine methyltransferase TPMT ; who may be unusually sensitive to the myelosuppressive effects of thioguanine and prone to developing rapid bone marrow suppression following the initiation of treatment. Substantial dosage reductions may be required to avoid the development of life-threatening bone marrow suppression in these patients. Prescribers should be aware that some laboratories offer testing for TPMT deficiency. Since bone marrow suppression may be associated with factors other than TPMT deficiency, TPMT testing may not identify all patients at risk for severe toxicity. Therefore, close monitoring of clinical and hematologic parameters is important. Bone marrow suppression could be exacerbated by coadministration with drugs that inhibit TPMT, such as olsalazine, mesalazine, or sulphasalazine. It is recommended that evaluation of the hemoglobin concentration or hematocrit, total white blood cell count and differential count, and quantitative platelet count be obtained frequently while the patient is on thioguanine therapy. In cases where the cause of fluctuations in the formed elements in the peripheral blood is obscure, bone marrow examination may be useful for the evaluation of marrow status. The decision to increase, decrease, continue, or discontinue a given dosage of thioguanine must be based not only on the absolute hematologic values, but also upon the rapidity with which changes are occurring. In many instances, particularly during the induction phase of acute leukemia, complete blood counts will need to be done more frequently in order to evaluate the effect of the therapy. The dosage of thioguanine may need to be reduced when this agent is combined with other drugs whose primary toxicity is myelosuppression. Myelosuppression is often unavoidable during the induction phase of adult acute nonlymphocytic leukemias if remission induction is to be successful. Whether or not this demands modification or cessation of dosage depends both upon the response of the underlying disease and a careful consideration of supportive facilities granulocyte and platelet transfusions.

There may also be redness, swelling, pus or other drainage. Staph bacteria can also cause more serious infections, such as blood and joint infections, and pneumonia, according to the Centers for Disease Control CDC ; . "It's more likely to cause infection if there is some break in the integrity of the skin, " Spear said. Some staph bacteria called Methicillin-resistant Staph aureus MRSA ; cannot be killed by certain antibiotics normally used to treat staph infections, according to the Center for Disease Control CDC ; . University Health Services saw approximately 39 MRSA infections test positive out of 204 skin cultures in the past year. "Many more of the infections we see are caused by the resistant bacteria, " Spear said. "The bacteria has developed resistJeff Bast Collegian ance to some of the antibiotics See HYGIENE, Page 18. Students use the White Building equipment; gyms use sanitation as a precaution against infections.

Effects of infliximab only last a few weeks - usually about two months - and we have to give it again or think of alternative therapies to keep people well. There are also side effects associated with all these medications. But there are lots of medicines out there. There [are] lots of medicines in development. Drug companies seem to be quite interested in finding new therapies for Crohn's disease. Rick: Are all of these medications indicated for Crohn's? Dr. Lashner: No, there are only two medications, believe it or not, indicated for Crohn's disease. Those are the two I talked about, budesonide or Endocort, and Remicade or infliximab. Every other medicine we use for Crohn's disease, including Azulfidine, including Asacol, Purinethol, 6-MP, Imuran, azathioprine, they're all not indicated for Crohn's disease. Rick: Just to give some perspective here, I know that Peter earlier mentioned that there were perhaps a million people in the United States affected by Crohn's, is that [a] ballpark figure? Dr. Lashner: Yes. Rick: Okay. Now, do these current therapies, how do they affect Crohn's over time? Do they actually prevent relapses or progression of the disease? Dr. Lashner: Well, there are certain medications that are meant to induce remission, drugs like Remicade and prednisone. But there are other medications out there that are basically designed or used mainly to maintain remission. Remicade can be given every two months. In fact, it is indicated for maintenance of Imuran or 6-MP or P7rinethol [which] are also maintenance drugs that tend to keep people well over time. Sometimes long-term antibiotics work to keep people well. Sometimes probiotics work. We're always looking not just to induce remission but to keep people well and to maintain it over time. Rick: Sure. You mentioned that they all come with side effects. So what's the balance there - the side effects versus the effectiveness of these treatments?.
