Abstract
The Communities Advancing Resilience Toolkit (CART)* is a community-driven, publicly available, theory-based, and evidence-informed community intervention designed to build community resilience to disasters and other adversities. Based on principles of participatory action research, CART applications contribute to community resilience by encouraging and supporting community participation and cooperation, communication, self-awareness, and critical reflection. The primary value of CART lies in its ability to stimulate analysis, collaboration, skill building, resource sharing, and purposeful action. In addition to generating community assessment data, CART can be used as a vehicle for delivering other interventions and creating sustainable capacity within communities. Two models for CART implementation are described.

Abstract
A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach was used to assess the prediction accuracy of propofol hepatic and extrahepatic metabolic clearance and to address previously reported underprediction of in vivo clearance based on static in vitro-in vivo extrapolation methods. The predictive capacity of propofol intrinsic clearance data (CLint) obtained in human hepatocytes and liver and kidney microsomes was assessed using the PBPK model developed in MATLAB software. Microsomal data obtained by both substrate depletion and metabolite formation methods and in the presence of 2% bovine serum albumin were considered in the analysis. Incorporation of hepatic and renal in vitro metabolic clearance in the PBPK model resulted in underprediction of propofol clearance regardless of the source of in vitro data; the predicted value did not exceed 35% of the observed clearance. Subsequently, propofol clinical data from three dose levels in intact patients and anhepatic subjects were used for the optimization of hepatic and renal CLint in a simultaneous fitting routine. Optimization process highlighted that renal glucuronidation clearance was underpredicted to a greater extent than liver clearance, requiring empirical scaling factors of 17 and 9, respectively. The use of optimized clearance parameters predicted hepatic and renal extraction ratios within 20% of the observed values, reported in an additional independent clinical study. This study highlights the complexity involved in assessing the contribution of extrahepatic clearance mechanisms and illustrates the application of PBPK modeling, in conjunction with clinical data, to assess prediction of clearance from in vitro data for each tissue individually.

Abstract
This exploratory pilot study examined the psychosocial effects of the war in Iraq, patriotism, and attention to war-related media coverage in the children of National Guard troops across phases of parental deployment--pre deployment, during deployment, and post deployment. Participants included 11 children, ages 8 to 18 years. Data collected in each deployment phase included demographics, the Behavior Assessment System for Children, (Second Edition, BASC-2), patriotism (national identity, uncritical patriotism, and constructive patriotism), and attention to war-related media coverage. School problems and emotional symptoms were significantly higher during deployment than post deployment. National identity and constructive patriotism increased and uncritical patriotism decreased post deployment from levels during deployment. Uncritical patriotism correlated positively with emotional symptoms and correlated negatively with personal adjustment. Constructive patriotism correlated positively with emotional symptoms and with internalizing problems. Greater attention to war-related media coverage correlated with uncritical patriotism, and attention to internet coverage correlated with constructive patriotism. Attention to media coverage was linked to greater emotional and behavioral problems and was negatively correlated with personal adjustment. The results of this pilot study identified relationships of both patriotism and attention to media coverage with children's emotional and behavioral status and personal adjustment suggesting areas for future investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To apply physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling to investigate the consequences of reduction in activity of hepatic and intestinal uptake and efflux transporters by cyclosporine and its metabolite AM1. METHODS Inhibitory potencies of cyclosporine and AM1 against OATP1B1, OATP1B3 and OATP2B1 were investigated in HEK293 cells +/- pre-incubation. Cyclosporine PBPK model implemented in Matlab was used to assess interaction potential (+/- metabolite) against different processes (uptake, efflux and metabolism) in liver and intestine and to predict quantitatively drug-drug interaction with repaglinide. RESULTS Cyclosporine and AM1 were potent inhibitors of OATP1B1 and OATP1B3, IC(50) ranging from 0.019-0.093 μM following pre-incubation. Cyclosporine PBPK model predicted the highest interaction potential against liver uptake transporters, with a maximal reduction of >70% in OATP1B1 activity; the effect on hepatic efflux and metabolism was minimal. In contrast, 80-97% of intestinal P-gp and CYP3A4 activity was reduced due to the 50-fold higher cyclosporine enterocytic concentrations relative to unbound hepatic inlet. The inclusion of AM1 resulted in a minor increase in the predicted maximal reduction of OATP1B1/1B3 activity. Good predictability of cyclosporine-repaglinide DDI and the impact of dose staggering are illustrated. CONCLUSIONS This study highlights the application of PBPK modeling for quantitative prediction of transporter-mediated DDIs with concomitant consideration of P450 inhibition.

Abstract
This case study describes the process and outcomes of the Northwest Center for Public Health Practice Child and Family Disaster Research Training (UWDRT) Program housed at the University of Washington, which used web-based distance learning technology. The purposes of this program were to provide training and to establish a regional cadre of researchers and clinicians; to increase disaster mental health research capacity and collaboration; and to improve the scientific rigor of research investigations of disaster mental health in children and families. Despite a number of obstacles encountered in development and implementation, outcomes of this program included increased team member awareness and knowledge of child and family disaster mental health issues; improved disaster and public health instruction and training independent of the UWDRT program; informed local and state disaster response preparedness and response; and contributions to the child and family disaster mental health research literature.

Abstract
Underprediction of in vivo intrinsic clearance (CL(int)) of unbound drug from human hepatic in vitro systems using physiological extrapolation methodology is accepted as a common outcome. Poulin et al. (2012. J Pharm Sci 101:838-851) recently proposed an approach involving determination of effective fraction unbound in plasma (fu(p)) based on albumin-facilitated hepatic uptake of acidic/neutral drugs which improved prediction accuracy and precision for 25 drugs highly bound to plasma proteins. This approach includes correction of unbound drug according to the ionisation fraction either side of the plasma membrane based on pH difference. Here, we assessed the proposed method using a larger database of predictions of CL(int) for 107 drugs involving hepatocytes (89 drugs) and microsomes (64 drugs). The proposed method was similarly effective in minimising average prediction bias (to within twofold), unlike the conventional fu(p) correction method. However, precision was similar between methods and there was no evidence in the larger database that prediction bias was associated with fu(p). Prediction bias for hepatocytes was clearance dependent by either method, indicating important sources of bias from in vitro methodology. Therefore, to progress beyond empirical correction of bias, there is further need of mechanistic elucidation to improve prediction methodology.

Abstract
Interindividual variability in activity of uptake transporters is evident in vivo, yet limited data exist in vitro, confounding in vitro-in vivo extrapolation. The uptake kinetics of seven organic anion-transporting polypeptide substrates was investigated over a concentration range in plated cryopreserved human hepatocytes. Active uptake clearance (CL(active, u)), bidirectional passive diffusion (P(diff)), intracellular binding, and metabolism were estimated for bosentan, pitavastatin, pravastatin, repaglinide, rosuvastatin, telmisartan, and valsartan in HU4122 donor using a mechanistic two-compartment model in Matlab. Full uptake kinetics of rosuvastatin and repaglinide were also characterized in two additional donors, whereas for the remaining drugs CL(active, u) was estimated at a single concentration. The unbound affinity constant (K(m, u)) and P(diff) values were consistent across donors, whereas V(max) was on average up to 2.8-fold greater in donor HU4122. Consistency in K(m, u) values allowed extrapolation of single concentration uptake activity data and assessment of interindividual variability in CL(active) across donors. The maximal contribution of active transport to total uptake differed among donors, for example, 85 to 96% and 68 to 87% for rosuvastatin and repaglinide, respectively; however, in all cases the active process was the major contributor. In vitro-in vivo extrapolation indicated a general underprediction of hepatic intrinsic clearance, an average empirical scaling factor of 17.1 was estimated on the basis of seven drugs investigated in three hepatocyte donors, and donor-specific differences in empirical factors are discussed. Uptake K(m, u) and CL(active, u) were on average 4.3- and 7.1-fold lower in human hepatocytes compared with our previously published rat data. A strategy for the use of rat uptake data to facilitate the experimental design in human hepatocytes is discussed.

Abstract
A progress curve method for assessing time-dependent inhibition of CYP3A4 is based on simultaneous quantification of probe substrate metabolite and inhibitor concentrations during the experiment. Therefore, it may overcome some of the issues associated with the traditional two-step method and estimation of inactivation rate (k(inact)) and irreversible inhibition (K(I)) constants. In the current study, seven time-dependent inhibitors were investigated using a progress curve method and recombinant CYP3A4. A novel mechanistic modeling approach was applied to determine inhibition parameters using both inhibitor and probe metabolite data. Progress curves generated for clarithromycin, erythromycin, diltiazem, and N-desmethyldiltiazem were described well by the mechanistic mechanism-based inhibition (MBI) model. In contrast, mibefradil, ritonavir, and verapamil required extension of the model and inclusion of competitive inhibition term for the metabolite. In addition, this analysis indicated that verapamil itself causes minimal MBI, and the formation of inhibitory metabolites was responsible for the irreversible loss of CYP3A4 activity. The k(inact) and K(I) estimates determined in the current study were compared with literature data generated using the conventional two-step method. In the current study, the inactivation efficiency (k(inact)/K(I)) for clarithromycin, ritonavir, and erythromycin were up to 7-fold higher, whereas k(inact)/K(I) for mibefradil, N-desmethyldiltiazem, and diltiazem were, on average, 2- to 4.8-fold lower than previously reported estimates. Use of human liver microsomes instead of recombinant CYP3A4 resulted in 5-fold lower k(inact)/K(I) for erythromycin. In conclusion, the progress curve method has shown a greater mechanistic insight when determining kinetic parameters for MBI in addition to providing a more comprehensive experimental protocol.

Abstract
Drug depletion-time profiles in isolated hepatocytes, as well as microsomes, have become a standard method of assessing hepatic metabolic clearance in vitro. There is a previously described adaptation of the depletion approach to allow determination of hepatic uptake by transporters in addition to metabolism (Drug Metab Dispos 35:859-865, 2007). Dual incubations are performed where one set of incubations undergo conventional methodology, whereas for the second set, cells and media are separated for determination of drug loss from the media. The utility of this dual incubation approach has been assessed using eight drugs (atorvastatin, clarithromycin, erythromycin, fexofenadine, pitavastatin, repaglinide, rosuvastatin, and saquinavir) with a range of active uptake, passive permeability, cell binding, and metabolic characteristics. Four of these compounds (fexofenadine, rosuvastatin, pitavastatin, and atorvastatin) show a biphasic time profile when assessing drug loss from media indicative of hepatic uptake before elimination within the hepatocyte, which is distinct from the time profile in a conventional incubation, and show higher clearances. The four other compounds (clarithromycin, saquinavir, erythromycin, and repaglinide) show identical depletion-time profiles (and clearances) in both sets of incubations. Whether or not the biphasic nature (and higher clearance) is evident, indicating transporter activity for a particular drug, appears to be dependent on its passive permeability. Using the parameter K(pu) to reflect the relative importance of hepatic transporters versus passive diffusion, a value of 10 was identified as a cutoff for whether the biphasic nature was evident; those compounds in excess of 10 show this characteristic clearly. There appears to be no relationship between the presence of the biphasic nature and any other parameter, including cellular binding, extent of metabolism, or the magnitude of active uptake.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown the importance of the addition of albumin for characterization of hepatic glucuronidation in vitro; however, no reports exist on the effects of albumin on renal or intestinal microsomal glucuronidation assays. This study characterized glucuronidation clearance (CL(int, UGT)) in human kidney, liver, and intestinal microsomes in the presence and absence of bovine serum albumin (BSA) for seven drugs with differential UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A9 and UGT2B7 specificity, namely, diclofenac, ezetimibe, gemfibrozil, mycophenolic acid, naloxone, propofol, and telmisartan. The impact of renal CL(int, UGT) on accuracy of in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) of glucuronidation clearance was investigated. Inclusion of 1% BSA for acidic drugs and 2% for bases/neutral drugs in incubations was found to be suitable for characterization of CL(int, UGT) in different tissues. Although BSA increased CL(int, UGT) in all tissues, the extent was tissue- and drug-dependent. Scaled CL(int, UGT) in the presence of BSA ranged from 2.22 to 207, 0.439 to 24.4, and 0.292 to 23.8 ml · min(-1) · g tissue(-1) in liver, kidney, and intestinal microsomes. Renal CL(int, UGT) (per gram of tissue) was up to 2-fold higher in comparison with that for liver for UGT1A9 substrates; in contrast, CL(int, UGT) for UGT2B7 substrates represented approximately one-third of hepatic estimates. Scaled renal CL(int, UGT) (in the presence of BSA) was up to 30-fold higher than intestinal glucuronidation for the drugs investigated. Use of in vitro data obtained in the presence of BSA and inclusion of renal clearance improved the IVIVE of glucuronidation clearance, with 50% of drugs predicted within 2-fold of observed values. Characterization and consideration of kidney CL(int, UGT) is particularly important for UGT1A9 substrates.

Abstract
Changes in relationships, roles, and dynamics associated with deployment of troops to the Global War on Terror can create challenges for their families as non-deployed spouses and their children take on new responsibilities. Children, aged 6 to 18 years, of deployed National Guard troops were assessed to determine the children's perceptions about how their father's deployment would or did change them and their family, the burden the children experienced in relation to helping their mothers, and child- and parent-reported emotional and behavioral symptoms in the children. Endorsement of personal change was associated with psychological health. During deployment, recognizing personal change was associated with less perceived burden while perceived change in the family was associated with more perceived burden. In general, increased perception of burden was associated with increased psychological symptoms and problems. The children of deployed service personnel may experience burdens and challenges in relation to the changes associated with the circumstances of deployment. Helping children prepare for and manage changes in relationships, roles, rules, and routines may lessen adverse reactions to changes in the environment.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine terrorism media coverage and psychiatric outcomes in directly-exposed terrorism survivors. The study used (1) self-report questionnaires to retrospectively assess event-related media behaviors and reactions in a cross sectional design and (2) longitudinal structured diagnostic interviews to assess psychopathologic outcomes. The participants were 99 directly-exposed Oklahoma City bombing survivors who were initially studied six months after the 1995 incident. Though a fear reaction to bombing-related television coverage and fear-driven discontinuation of bombing-related media contact were associated with diagnostic outcomes, the number of hours viewing bombing-related television coverage in the first week after the event was not associated with the prevalence of bombing-related posttraumatic stress disorder or post-bombing major depressive disorder during the seven years post event. The results raise doubt about the effects of quantified incident-related television viewing on clinically-significant emotional outcomes in directly-exposed terrorism survivors.

Abstract
Kinetic parameters describing hepatic uptake in hepatocytes are frequently estimated without appropriate incorporation of bidirectional passive diffusion, intracellular binding, and metabolism. A mechanistic two-compartment model was developed to describe all of the processes occurring during the in vitro uptake experiments performed in freshly isolated rat hepatocytes plated for 2 h. Uptake of rosuvastatin, pravastatin, pitavastatin, valsartan, bosentan, telmisartan, and repaglinide was investigated over a 0.1 to 300 μM concentration range at 37°C for 2 or 45-90 min; nonspecific binding was taken into account. All concentration-time points were analyzed simultaneously by using a mechanistic two-compartment model describing uptake kinetics [unbound affinity constant (K(m,u)), maximum uptake rate (V(max)), unbound active uptake clearance (CL(active,u))], passive diffusion [unbound passive diffusion clearance (P(diff,u))], and intracellular binding [intracellular unbound fraction (fu(cell))]. When required (telmisartan and repaglinide), the model was extended to account for the metabolism [unbound metabolic clearance (CL(met,u))]. The CL(active,u) ranged 8-fold, reflecting a 11-fold range in uptake K(m,u), with telmisartan and valsartan showing the highest affinity for uptake transporters (K(m,u) <10 μM). Both P(diff,u) and fu(cell) span over two orders of magnitude and reflected the lipophilicity of the drugs in the dataset. An extended incubation time allowed steady state to be reached between media and intracellular compartment concentrations and reduced the error in certain parameter estimates observed with shorter incubation times. Active transport accounted for >70% of total uptake for all drugs investigated and was 4- and 112-fold greater than CL(met,u) for telmisartan and repaglinide, respectively. Modeling of uptake kinetics in conjunction with metabolism improved the precision of the uptake parameter estimates for repaglinide and telmisartan. Recommendations are made for uptake experimental design and modeling strategies.

Abstract
Rifampin is a potent inducer of CYP3A4 in vitro and precipitates numerous drug-drug interactions (DDIs) when coadministered with CYP3A4 substrates. In the current study, we have critically assessed reported rifampin in vitro CYP3A4 induction data in Fa2N-4, HepaRG, and cryopreserved or primary human hepatocytes, using either CYP3A4 mRNA or probe substrate metabolism as induction endpoints. An in vivo data base of intravenously administered victim drugs (assuming hepatic induction only) was collated (n = 18) to assess the predictive utility of these in vitro systems and to optimize rifampin in vivo E(max). In addition, the effect of substrate hepatic extraction ratio on prediction accuracy was investigated using prediction boundaries proposed recently (Drug Metab Dispos 39:170-173). Incorporation of hepatic extraction ratio in the prediction model resulted in accurate prediction of 89% of intravenous induction DDIs (n = 18), regardless of the in vitro system or induction endpoint (mRNA or CYP3A4 activity). Effects of in vitro parameters from different cellular systems, and optimized in vivo E(max), on the prediction of 21 oral DDIs were assessed. Use of mRNA data resulted in pronounced overprediction across all systems, with 86 to 100% of DDIs outside the acceptable prediction limits; in contrast, CYP3A4 activity predicted up to 62% of the oral DDIs within limits. Although prediction accuracy of oral DDIs was improved when using intravenous optimized rifampin E(max), >35% of DDIs were incorrectly assigned, suggesting potential differential E(max) between intestine and liver. Implications of the findings and recommendations for prediction of rifampin DDIs are discussed.

Abstract
AIM To conduct a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to assess whether thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) genotyping prior to azathioprine reduces adverse drug reactions (ADRs). METHODS A total of 333 participants were randomized 1:1 to undergo TPMT genotyping prior to azathioprine or to commence treatment without genotyping. RESULTS There was no difference in the primary outcome of stopping azathioprine due to an adverse reaction (ADR, p = 0.59) between the two study arms. ADRs were more common in older patients (p = 0.01). There was no increase in stopping azathioprine due to ADRs in TPMT heterozygotes compared with wild-type individuals. The single individual with TPMT variant homozygosity experienced severe neutropenia. CONCLUSION Our work supports the strong evidence that individuals with TPMT variant homozygosity are at high risk of severe neutropenia, whereas TPMT heterozygotes are not at increased risk of ADRs at standard doses of azathioprine.
