Abstract
UNLABELLED The prospective, observational Direct Assessment of Nonvertebral Fracture in the Community Experience (DANCE) study shows that, among patients with risk factors for osteoporosis, women are more likely to be screened and to receive appropriate treatment than men. There needs to be greater awareness that osteoporosis affects both men and women. INTRODUCTION The prospective, observational DANCE study evaluated teriparatide use in the mainland USA and Puerto Rico in patients with osteoporosis in a community setting. This analysis compares baseline characteristics of women and men that may contribute to differences in initiation of teriparatide therapy. METHODS Investigators prescribed teriparatide 20 μg/day subcutaneous injection for ≤24 months to 3,698 patients (3,342 women, 356 men) whom they considered appropriate candidates for therapy. Study entry was guided by product labeling. Specific timing and frequency of office visits were not mandated. Treatment decisions were based on the clinical judgment of study investigators and local standards of care. RESULTS At baseline, similar proportions of women and men had prior fragility fractures (57% and 59%, respectively) and comorbid conditions that increase fracture risk (83% and 84%, respectively). Women were older than men (mean age 68 vs. 65 year; P < 0.0001) and more likely to have received prior osteoporosis therapy (88% vs. 62%; P < 0.0001). Investigators prescribed teriparatide more often for women than men based on general frailty (21% vs. 16%; P = 0.0151), low body mass index (17% vs. 10%; P = 0.0005), and an inadequate response (58% vs. 36%; P < 0.0001) or intolerance to previous therapy (23% vs. 12%; P < 0.0001). Chronic glucocorticoid therapy was the reason investigators cited most frequently for initiating therapy more often in men than in women (17% vs. 10%; P < 0.0001) CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that patients' gender may influence the reasons physicians initiate teriparatide therapy in a community setting.

Teriparatide versus alendronate for treating glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis: an analysis by gender and menopausal status. Osteoporos Int 2009; 20:2095-104.

Abstract
SUMMARY The effects of teriparatide versus alendronate were compared by gender and menopausal status in patients with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. At 18 months, increases in lumbar spine BMD were significantly greater in the teriparatide versus alendronate group in postmenopausal women (7.8% versus 3.7%, p < 0.001), premenopausal women (7.0% versus 0.7%, p < 0.001), and men (7.3% versus 3.7%, p = 0.03). INTRODUCTION In patients with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO), teriparatide significantly increased bone mineral density (BMD) and decreased vertebral fractures compared with alendronate. We examined effects of teriparatide versus alendronate by gender and menopausal status. METHODS This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind study of teriparatide 20 microg/day versus alendronate 10 mg/day in patients with GIO (277 postmenopausal women, 67 premenopausal women, 83 men). Primary outcome was change in lumbar spine BMD. Secondary outcomes included change in hip BMD, change in bone biomarkers, fracture incidence, and safety. RESULTS At 18 months, mean percent increases from baseline in lumbar spine BMD were significantly greater in the teriparatide versus alendronate group in postmenopausal women (7.8% versus 3.7%, p < 0.001), premenopausal women (7.0% versus 0.7%, p < 0.001), and men (7.3% versus 3.7%, p = 0.03). Radiographic vertebral fractures occurred in one teriparatide (one postmenopausal) and ten alendronate patients (six postmenopausal, four men), and nonvertebral fractures occurred in 12 teriparatide (nine postmenopausal, two premenopausal, one man) and eight alendronate patients (six postmenopausal, two men). The proportion of patients reporting adverse events in teriparatide versus alendronate groups was consistent across subgroups. CONCLUSION Among men and pre- and postmenopausal women with GIO, lumbar spine BMD increased more in patients receiving teriparatide compared with alendronate.

Abstract
There are special challenges in implementing parenteral nutrition (PN) in paediatric patients, which arises from the wide range of patients, ranging from extremely premature infants up to teenagers weighing up to and over 100 kg, and their varying substrate requirements. Age and maturity-related changes of the metabolism and fluid and nutrient requirements must be taken into consideration along with the clinical situation during which PN is applied. The indication, the procedure as well as the intake of fluid and substrates are very different to that known in PN-practice in adult patients, e.g. the fluid, nutrient and energy needs of premature infants and newborns per kg body weight are markedly higher than of older paediatric and adult patients. Premature infants <35 weeks of pregnancy and most sick term infants usually require full or partial PN. In neonates the actual amount of PN administered must be calculated (not estimated). Enteral nutrition should be gradually introduced and should replace PN as quickly as possible in order to minimise any side-effects from exposure to PN. Inadequate substrate intake in early infancy can cause long-term detrimental effects in terms of metabolic programming of the risk of illness in later life. If energy and nutrient demands in children and adolescents cannot be met through enteral nutrition, partial or total PN should be considered within 7 days or less depending on the nutritional state and clinical conditions.

Abstract
The infusion of lipid emulsions allows a high energy supply, facilitates the prevention of high glucose infusion rates and is indispensable for the supply with essential fatty acids. The administration of lipid emulsions is recommended within ≤7 days after starting PN (parenteral nutrition) to avoid deficiency of essential fatty acids. Low-fat PN with a high glucose intake increases the risk of hyperglycaemia. In parenterally fed patients with a tendency to hyperglycaemia, an increase in the lipid-glucose ratio should be considered. In critically ill patients the glucose infusion should not exceed 50% of energy intake. The use of lipid emulsions with a low phospholipid/triglyceride ratio is recommended and should be provided with the usual PN to prevent depletion of essential fatty acids, lower the risk of hyperglycaemia, and prevent hepatic steatosis. Biologically active vitamin E (α-tocopherol) should continuously be administered along with lipid emulsions to reduce lipid peroxidation. Parenteral lipids should provide about 25–40% of the parenteral non-protein energy supply. In certain situations (i.e. critically ill, respiratory insufficiency) a lipid intake of up to 50 or 60% of non-protein energy may be reasonable. The recommended daily dose for parenteral lipids in adults is 0.7–1.3 g triglycerides/kg body weight. Serum triglyceride concentrations should be monitored regularly with dosage reduction at levels >400 mg/dl (>4.6 mmol/l) and interruption of lipid infusion at levels >1000 mg/dl (>11.4 mmol/l). There is little evidence at this time that the choice of different available lipid emulsions affects clinical endpoints.

Abstract
Cellular immune reactivity was studied in 78 patients with various forms of renal disease by skin testing with four recall antigens and a lymphocyte transformation test with tuberculin PPD and leucoagglutinin. Patients with S-creatine greater than or equal to 230 micromol/l as well as those with chronic pyelonephritis who had S-creatinine values below 230 micromol/l had significantly lower skin reactions than the controls to streptokinase-streptodornase, parotitis and PPD. Glomerulonephritic patients with S-creatinine values below 230 micromol/l had normal skin reactivity. Lymphocyte transformation tests showed decreased reactivity only in patients with S-creatinine level greater than or equal to 230 micromol/l. The results suggest an association of chronic pyelonephritis with a defective efferent, nonspecific arm of cellular immunity.

Abstract
The methanolic extract (NLB) and ten compounds isolated from the root bark of Newbouldia laevis Seem, namely chrysoeriol (1), newbouldiaquinone (2), 2-acetylfuro-1,4-naphthoquinone (3), 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-1-carbaldehyde (4), lapachol (5), beta-sitosterol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6), oleanolic acid (7), canthic acid (8) newbouldiamide (9) and 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethyltrioctanoate (10), were tested for in vitro antimicrobial activity. Twenty one microorganisms belonging to six Gram-positive and twelve Gram-negative bacterial species as well as three yeasts from Candida species were tested for their susceptibility to NLB and the pure isolated compounds based on the Agar Hole Diffusion test and the Liquid Dilution method. The Hole Diffusion assay indicated that NLB and compound 7 were active against all tested pathogens while other compounds showed selective activity with the antimicrobial spectra varying from 76% (compound 10) to 95 % (compound 6). Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) also illustrated the important antimicrobial activity of NLB and of the isolated compounds. MIC values obtained varied from 9.76 to 312.50 microg/ml for NLB, and 0.038 to 9.76 microg/ml for pure compounds against most of the tested microorganisms. The antimicrobial activities of compounds 2, 4 and 9 are described here extensively for the first time. The results indicate a promising basis for the use of Newbouldia laevis and some of its active principles in the treatment of infectious diseases.

Abstract
Because thyroid nodules are frequent in areas with iodine deficiency the aim of this study was to characterise molecular events during iodine deficiency that could explain mutagenesis and nodule formation. We therefore studied gene expression of catalytic enzymes prominent for H(2)O(2) detoxification and antioxidative defence, quantified DNA oxidation and damage as well as spontaneous mutation rates (SMR) in mice and rats fed an iodine controlled diet. Antioxidative enzymes such as superoxide dismutase 3, glutathione peroxidase 4 and the peroxiredoxins 3 and 5 showed increased mRNA expression, which indicates increased radical burden that could be the cause of additional oxidized base adducts found in thyroidal genomic DNA in our experiments of iodine deficiency. Furthermore, the uracil content of thyroid DNA was significantly higher in the iodine-deficient compared to the control group. While SMR is very high in the normal thyroid gland it is not changed in experimental iodine deficiency. Our data suggest that iodine restriction causes oxidative stress and DNA modifications. A higher uracil content of the thyroid DNA could be a precondition for C-->T transitions often detected as somatic mutations in nodular thyroid tissue. However, the absence of increased SMR would argue for more efficient DNA repair in response to iodine restriction.

Abstract
Thymomas are thymic epithelial neoplasms, associated with a variety of autoimmune disorders (especially myasthenia gravis), that apparently result from aberrant intra-tumourous thymopoiesis and export of inefficiently tolerized T-cells to the periphery. The autoimmune regulator (AIRE) drives the expression of self-antigens in the thymic medulla and plays an essential role in 'central' tolerance in both humans and mice. However, while inactivating AIRE mutations result in the 'autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome type 1' (APS-1), its major features are not well reproduced in AIRE-knock-out mice. Therefore, alternative human disease scenarios with concomitant AIRE deficiency may be valuable tools to test conclusions drawn from mouse models. Here we show, in a large series, that approximately 95% of thymoma patients are 'chimeric'; expression of AIRE and major AIRE-related autoantigens (eg insulin) were undetectable in their tumours but maintained in their remnant thymic tissue and lymph nodes. Notably, despite the AIRE-deficient thymopoiesis in thymomas, disorders and autoantibodies typical of APS-1 were distinctly uncommon in these patients. The one striking similarity was in the recently observed neutralizing anti-type I interferon (IFN) antibodies, which are found at diagnosis in 100% of patients with APS-1 and in approximately 60% of patients with thymomas, as we show here. We conclude that APS-1 type autoantigens must be protected from autoimmunity by mechanisms that do not extend to the muscle autoantigens so frequently targeted in thymoma patients but so rarely recognized in APS-1. Thus our findings argue strongly for a tolerogenic function of AIRE beyond its role in negative T-cell selection in human thymopoiesis, and/or for specific autoimmunization against muscle in thymomas.

Abstract
The absolute configurations (ACs) of the iridoid natural products, plumericin (1) and isoplumericin (2), have been re-investigated using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy, and optical rotatory dispersion (ORD). Comparison of DFT calculations of the VCD spectra of 1 and 2 to the experimental VCD spectra of the natural products, (+)-1 and (+)-2, leads unambiguously to the AC (1R,5S,8S,9S,10S)-(+) for both 1 and 2. In contrast, comparison of time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) calculations of the ECD spectra of 1 and 2 to the experimental spectra of (+)-1 and (+)-2 does not permit definitive assignment of their ACs. On the other hand, TDDFT calculations of the ORD of (1R,5S,8S,9S,10S)-1 and -2 over the range of 365-589 nm are in excellent agreement with the experimental data of (+)-1 and (+)-2, confirming the ACs derived from the VCD spectra. Thus, the ACs initially proposed by Albers-Schönberg and Schmid are shown to be correct, and the opposite ACs recently derived from the ECD spectra of 1 and 2 by Elsässer et al. are shown to be incorrect. As a result, the ACs of other iridoid natural products obtained by chemical correlation with 1 and 2 are not in need of revision.
