Abstract
Bladder cancer (BC) possesses distinct molecular profiles that influence progression depending on its biological nature and delivered treatment intensity. Muscle-invasive BC (MIBC) and non-MIBC (NMIBC) demonstrate great intrinsic heterogeneity regarding different prognoses, survival, progression, and treatment outcomes. Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is the standard of care in treating NMIBC and serves both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes despite the prevalent recurrence and progression among many patients. In particular, flat urothelial carcinoma in situ and urothelial carcinoma with lamina propria invasion are the major precursors of MIBC. A new-generation photosensitizer, 5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), demonstrates high tumor specificity by illuminating the tumor lesion with a specific wavelength of light to produce fluorescence and has been studied for photodynamic diagnosis to detect precise tumor areas by TURBT. Additionally, it has been applied for treatment by producing its cytotoxic reactive oxygen species, as well as screening for urological carcinomas by excreting porphyrin in the blood and urine. Moreover, 5-ALA may contribute to screening before and after TURBT in NMIBC. Here, we summarize the updated evidence and ongoing research on photodynamic technology for NMIBC, providing insight into the potential for improving patient outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Traumatic head injury (THI) poses a significant global public health burden, often contributing to mortality and disability. Intraoperative hypotension (IH) during emergency neurosurgery for THI can adversely affect perioperative outcomes, and understanding associated risk factors is essential for prevention. METHOD A multi-center observational study was conducted from February 10 to June 30, 2022. A simple random sampling technique was used to select the study participants. Patient data were analyzed using bivariate and multivariate logistic regression to identify significant factors associated with intraoperative hypotension (IH). Odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were used to show the strength of association, and P value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. RESULT The incidence of intra-operative hypotension was 46.41% with 95%CI (39.2,53.6). The factors were duration of anesthesia ≥ 135 min with AOR: 4.25, 95% CI (1.004,17.98), severe GCS score with AOR: 7.23, 95% CI (1.098,47.67), intracranial hematoma size ≥ 15 mm with AOR: 7.69, 95% CI (1.18,50.05), and no pupillary abnormality with AOR: 0.061, 95% CI (0.005,0.732). CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: The incidence of intraoperative hypotension was considerably high. The duration of anesthesia, GCS score, hematoma size, and pupillary abnormalities were associated. The high incidence of IH underscores the need for careful preoperative neurological assessment, utilizing CT findings, vigilance for IH in patients at risk, and proactive management of IH during surgery. Further research should investigate specific mitigation strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze the incidence and risk factors of intraoperative hypotension related to photodynamic diagnosis-assisted transurethral resection of bladder tumor (PDD-TURBT) with oral 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 487 patients with bladder tumors who underwent PDD-TURBT (n = 184) or conventional TURBT (conv-TURBT) (n = 303) between 2018 and 2021. Intraoperative hypotension was defined as hypotension requiring vasopressors during TURBT, and its incidence was compared between the two groups. Potential risk factors of intraoperative hypotension, including preoperative change in mean arterial pressure (MAP), were further investigated in patients receiving PDD-TURBT. RESULTS The median age was 72 years, 392 patients (81%) were male, and 203 (42%) had hypertension. TURBT was performed under general and spinal anesthesia in 76 (16%) and 411 (84%) patients, respectively. The incidence of intraoperative hypotension was significantly higher in PDD-TURBT compared to conv-TURBT (43% vs. 17%, respectively). The median change in MAP until the induction of anesthesia was +6.5 mmHg (range: -29.0 to +46.3) in the PDD-TURBT group and +14.7 mmHg (range: -35.3 to +67.7) in the conv-TURBT group, showing a significantly smaller increase in the PDD-TURBT group (p < 0.001). In the multivariable analysis for PDD-TURBT patients, advanced age, general anesthesia, and lower MAP change (<+6.5 mmHg) until anesthesia induction were significantly associated with intraoperative hypotension (p = 0.0104, <0.001, and <0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative hypotension occurred more frequently in patients who underwent PDD-TURBT than in those who underwent conv-TURBT. Using oral 5-ALA decreases preoperative blood pressure elevation and may be responsible for intraoperative hypotension.

Abstract
PURPOSE Tumors can be visualized using 5-Aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride (5-ALA) during transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT). Hypotension is an adverse effect of 5-ALA; however, its incidence and morbidity rates are unknown. This study aimed to describe the incidence of perioperative hypotension and identify risk factors for hypotension among patients after 5-ALA administration in TURBT. METHODS This retrospective multicenter cohort study was conducted at three general hospitals in Japan. Adult patients who underwent elective TURBT after 5-ALA administration between April 2018 and August 2020 were included. The primary outcome was the incidence of perioperative hypotension (mean blood pressure < 65 mmHg). The secondary outcomes were the use of vasoactive agents and adverse events, including urgent intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate risk factors of the incidence of intraoperative hypotension. RESULTS The median age of 261 patients was 73 years. General anesthesia was induced in 252 patients. The intraoperative hypotension was observed in 246 (94.3%) patients. Three patients (1.1%) were urgently admitted to the ICU for continued vasoactive agent use after surgery. All three patients had renal dysfunction. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that general anesthesia was significantly associated with intraoperative hypotension (adjusted odds ratio, 17.94; 95% confidence interval, 3.21-100.81). CONCLUSION The incidence of hypotension in patients undergoing TURBT after 5-ALA administration was 94.3%. The incidence of urgent ICU admission with prolonged hypotension was 1.1% in all patients with renal dysfunction. General anesthesia was significantly associated with intraoperative hypotension.

J Pharmacol Sci 2023; 152:22-29. [PMID: 37059488 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphs.2023.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2023] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Oral administration of 5-aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride (5-ALA-HCl) has been reported to enhance the hypotensive effects associated with anesthetics, especially in elderly hypertensive patients treated with antihypertensive agents. The present study aimed to clarify the effects of antihypertensive-agent- and anesthesia-induced hypotension by 5-ALA-HCl in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). METHODS We measured blood pressure (BP) of SHRs and normotensive Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats treated with amlodipine or candesartan before and after administration of 5-ALA-HCl. We also investigated the change in BP following intravenous infusion of propofol and intrathecal injection of bupivacaine in relation to 5-ALA-HCl administration. FINDINGS Oral administration of 5-ALA-HCl significantly reduced BP in SHRs and WKY rats with amlodipine and candesartan. Infusion of propofol significantly reduced BP in SHRs treated with 5-ALA-HCl. Intrathecal injection of bupivacaine significantly declined SBP and DBP in both SHRs and WKY rats treated with 5-ALA-HCl. The bupivacaine-induced decline in SBP was significantly larger in SHRs compared with WKY rats. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that 5-ALA-HCl does not affect the antihypertensive agents-induced hypotensive effect, but enhances the bupivacaine-induced hypotensive effect, especially in SHRs, indicating that 5-ALA may contribute to anesthesia-induced hypotension via suppression of sympathetic nerve activity in patients with hypertension.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The primary objective of neurosurgical management of malignant gliomas is maximal safe resection of the tumour. One of the main obstacles in achieving this is the ability to accurately discriminate between tumour edges and the surrounding healthy brain tissue. The use of fluorescence-guided surgery utilising 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), first introduced more than 20 years ago, has become an invaluable adjunct in high-grade glioma surgery in adults. However, as 5-ALA is not licensed for use in paediatric patients, the safety profile for such use remains undetermined. CASE REPORT We describe the case of a 4-year-old boy who underwent 5-ALA-guided resection of a fourth ventricle anaplastic ependymoma. Although complete resection was achieved and the patient awoke from surgery well with no neurological deficits, the patient developed acute transaminitis, anaemia, thrombocytopaenia and coagulopathy postoperatively. The patient had a sudden neurological deterioration on postoperative day 2; imaging revealed that he had suffered a spontaneous right frontal intracerebral haemorrhage. The patient returned to theatre for surgical decompression and evacuation of the haematoma, and ultimately went on to make a full recovery. CONCLUSION The use of 5-ALA in paediatric patients can be helpful in maximising surgical resection, but the associated safety profile remains undefined. Further research is urgently warranted in order to characterise the efficacy and risk of the use of 5-ALA in the paediatric population.

Effect of Arginine Vasopressin on Intraoperative Hypotension Caused by Oral Administration of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid. Case Rep Anesthesiol 2023; 2023:1745373. [PMID: 37192960 PMCID: PMC10182879 DOI: 10.1155/2023/1745373] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2022] [Revised: 04/01/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 05/18/2023] Open
Abstract
5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is used for the photodynamic diagnosis of malignant tumors and has been effectively utilized to improve the complete resection rate and reduce the risk of tumor recurrence. However, intraoperative hypotension is a common adverse effect of oral 5-ALA, and it occasionally progresses to severe prolonged hypotension requiring high-dose catecholamine administration. We report a case of intraoperative hypotension due to oral 5-ALA in which arginine vasopressin (AVP) administration was effective for increasing the blood pressure. A 77-year-old man scheduled for a craniotomy for glioma was administered 5-ALA orally before surgery. After the induction of anesthesia, his blood pressure decreased substantially. Although we administered various vasopressor agents, hypotension was prolonged. However, after starting a continuous administration of AVP, the systolic blood pressure increased, and the hemodynamic parameters remained stable during the remainder of the operation. 5-ALA administration may lower blood pressure by inducing nitric oxide production, and AVP inhibits inducible nitric oxide synthase messenger RNA expression and interleukin-1β-stimulated nitric oxide production. In light of these mechanisms, AVP may be a reasonable treatment agent for hypotension induced by 5-ALA.

Dexmedetomidine premedication increases preoperative sedation and inhibits stress induced by tracheal intubation in adult: a prospective randomized double-blind clinical study. BMC Anesthesiol 2022; 22:398. [PMID: 36544098 PMCID: PMC9768986 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-022-01930-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this prospective randomized double-blind study is to evaluate whether oral dexmedetomidine (DEX) premedication could increase sedation in order to reduce preoperative anxiety and inhibit stress response during general anesthesia tracheal intubation. MATERIALS A total of 100 ASA I and II adult patients undergoing elective neurosurgery were randomly divided into the control group (C group, n = 50) and the oral DEX premedication (DEX group, n = 50). Patients were administrated 4 μg/kg dexmedetomidine orally pre-anesthesia 120 min. Hemodynamic variables were monitored and recorded from premedication to 10 min after tracheal intubation. The primary outcome, the sedation level of all participants, was evaluated by Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS), and Numerical Rating Scale was to measure their intensity of thirst and satisfaction of patients' family members. During general anesthesia induction, the total dosage of induction anesthetics and complications relative to anesthesia induction were recorded. After tracheal intubation, blood sample was drain from radial atrial line to measure levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol. RESULTS RASS scores at 60 min after premedication and on arrival in the operating room were significantly reduced in the DEX group (P < 0.001). Oral DEX premedication not only increased the intensity of thirst but also the satisfaction of their family members (P < 0.001). The cortisol level after tracheal intubation was deduced by oral DEX premedication (P < 0.05). Oral DEX premedication reduced heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) on arrival in the operating room, and HR when tracheal intubation (P < 0.05). During the whole process of anesthesia induction, although the lowest MAP in two groups were not significantly different, the lowest HR was significantly lower in the DEX group (P < 0.05). Oral DEX premedication might reduce HR from premedication to 10 min after tracheal intubation. However MAP was reduced just from premedication to on arrival in the operating room. Total induction dosages of propofol, midazolam, sulfentanil and rocuronium were similar in two groups (P > 0.05), as well as the complications relative to anesthesia induction and cases of rescue dopamine therapy were similar (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Oral DEX 4 μg/kg premedication was an efficient intervention to increase preoperative sedation and reduce stress reaction induced by general anesthesia tracheal intubation, but also it was with the stable hemodynamic during the process of general anesthesia tracheal intubation, and improved the satisfaction of patients' family members. In this study, the sparing-anesthetic effect of 4 μg/kg DEX oral premedication was not significant, and this would be needed to study in future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Use of 5-aminolevulinic acid for photodynamic malignant tumor diagnosis reportedly causes intraoperative hypotension (systolic blood pressure < 70 mmHg) during urologic surgery. However, its association with intraoperative hypotension in malignant glioma surgery and underlying mechanisms has not yet been elucidated.. This study aimed to investigate whether 5-aminolevulinic acid administration is associated with intraoperative hypotension in malignant glioma surgery and explore the mechanisms of 5-aminolevulinic acid-induced hypotension in vitro. METHODS In this retrospective multicenter cohort study, we investigated intracellular nitric oxide as a candidate mediator of hypotension in response to 5-aminolevulinic acid in vitro in human umbilical vein endothelial cell cultures. RESULTS Of 142 patients, 94 underwent 5-aminolevulinic acid-guided surgery. Systolic blood pressure was significantly lower throughout surgery with 5-aminolevulinic acid administration. 5-Aminolevulinic acid administration was an independent risk factor for intraoperative hypotension according to multivariable logistic regression analysis (89% vs. 56%; odds ratio = 6.72, 95% confidence interval [2.05-22.1], P = 002). In subgroup analysis of the 5-aminolevulinic acid group, increasing age and use of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors had a synergistic effect with 5-aminolevulinic acid on decreased blood pressure. In the vascular endothelial cell culture study, 5-aminolevulinic acid induced a significant increase in intracellular nitric oxide generation. CONCLUSIONS 5-Aminolevulinic acid administration was associated with intraoperative hypotension in malignant glioma surgery, with increasing age and use of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors boosting the blood pressure-lowering effect of 5-aminolevulinic acid. According to in vitro results, the low blood pressure induced by 5-aminolevulinic acid may be mediated by a nitric oxide increase in vascular endothelial cells.

Identification of risk factors associated with oral 5-aminolevulinic acid-induced hypotension in photodynamic diagnosis for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: a multicenter retrospective study. BMC Cancer 2021; 21:1223. [PMID: 34774000 PMCID: PMC8590750 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-021-08976-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background To investigate risk factors for orally administered 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-induced hypotension for bladder cancer patients receiving photodynamic diagnosis (PDD)-assisted transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). Methods Patients were categorized into two groups intraoperatively: a hypotensive group (minimum systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≤80 mmHg) and a non-hypotensive group (minimum SBP > 80 mmHg). We examined differences between the hypotensive group and non-hypotensive groups to identify clinical risk of ALA-induced hypotension using multivariate logistic regression analysis and decision tree analysis. Results Among 282 cases with ALA-PDD-assisted TURBT from three institutions who were screened, 245 patients were included in the final analysis. In total, 156 patients (63.7%) showed any grade of hypotension during ALA-PDD-assisted TURBT. General anesthesia and spinal anesthesia were induced intraoperatively in 113 patients (46.1%) and 132 patients (53.9%), respectively. Median SBP at baseline (before taking ALA) and at the beginning of anesthesia was 127 mmHg (range, 69–186 mmHg) and 124 mmHg (range, 69–186 mmHg), respectively. Median minimum SBP during ALA-PDD-assisted TURBT was 75 mmHg (range, 43–140 mmHg). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that history of hypertension (odds ratio (OR) 7.568, p < 0.05) and general anesthesia (OR 14.435, p < 0.05) as significantly associated with an increased risk of hypotension incidence. Use of calcium antagonist showed significant negative associations with hypotension (OR 0.183, p < 0.05). Decision tree analysis showed presence of general anesthesia, age ≥ 74 years and American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status (ASA-PS) ≥2 as the most important discriminators. Conclusions General anesthesia and hypertension were independent risk factors related to ALA-induced hypotension. In contrast, use of calcium antagonists was identified as a factor associated with reduced risk of ALA-induced hypotension.

Differences in 5-Aminolevulinic Acid-Induced Hemodynamic Changes between Patients Undergoing Neurosurgery and Urological Surgery. JMA J 2021; 4:374-386. [PMID: 34796292 PMCID: PMC8580708 DOI: 10.31662/jmaj.2021-0092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Accepted: 07/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Oral 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is often used for photodynamic diagnosis-assisted glioma or bladder tumor surgery. 5-ALA affects blood pressure (BP). In fact, hypotension is a well-known adverse effect of 5-ALA in urology. However, information regarding 5-ALA-induced hemodynamic changes in neurosurgery remains limited. Furthermore, the duration of hypotension and how 5-ALA affects the heart rate (HR) are yet to be determined. Thus, in this study, we aimed to elucidate 5-ALA-induced perioperative hemodynamic changes in neurosurgery and urological surgery by examining real-world data. Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent neurosurgery (neurosurgery patients; 5-ALA-pretreated vs. non-pretreated [17 vs. 16], from January 2014 to March 2021) and urological surgery (urological surgery patients; 5-ALA-pretreated vs. non-pretreated [26 vs. 101], from August 2018 to September 2020) were enrolled. Differences in hemodynamics were evaluated using the linear mixed model. BP and HR in 5-ALA-pretreated patients were compared with those in non-pretreated patients. Differences in 5-ALA-induced preoperative BP changes were compared between the neurosurgery patients and urological surgery patients. Results: 5-ALA scarcely affected the hemodynamics in neurosurgery patients, whereas 5-ALA-induced hemodynamic changes were clearly observed in urological surgery patients. Hemodynamic parameters were found to be not significantly different between 5-ALA-pretreated and non-pretreated neurosurgery patients. The preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative BP in 5-ALA-pretreated urological surgery patients were significantly lower than those in the non-pretreated patients. Preoperatively, two 5-ALA-pretreated urological surgery patients had severe postural hypotension (systolic BP <50 mmHg), and one of them did not continue with the surgery because of prolonged severe hypotension. The BP in 5-ALA-pretreated urological surgery patients tended to be persistently lower for 9 h after 5-ALA pretreatment. The preoperative and postoperative HR values were higher in 5-ALA-pretreated urological surgery patients. Cumulative incidences of BP reduction and HR elevation were significantly higher in 5-ALA-pretreated urological surgery patients. The preoperative BP reduction in 5-ALA-pretreated urological surgery patients was significantly larger than that in neurosurgery patients. Conclusions: 5-ALA-induced hemodynamics may differ between neurosurgery patients and urological surgery patients. 5-ALA may affect BP for at least 9 h.

Oral 5-aminolevulinic acid administration prior to transurethral resection of bladder tumor causes intraoperative hypotension: Propensity score analysis. Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther 2021; 34:102342. [PMID: 34000450 DOI: 10.1016/j.pdpdt.2021.102342] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Revised: 04/30/2021] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-BT) using 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is common; however, intraoperative hypotension is frequent. This study aimed to investigate the impact of preoperative oral 5-ALA taking on hypotension and vasopressors dose during general anesthesia, and postoperative nausea and vomiting. METHODS This retrospective study included patients aged ≥ 20 years who had undergone elective TUR-BT for bladder tumors under general anesthesia. An inverse probability of treatment weighted using stabilized inverse propensity scores was adopted to minimize bias. After adjustment based on patient data, outcomes of interest in patients with and without preoperative administration of 5-ALA were compared using a generalized estimating equation. Primary outcomes were hypotension incidence during anesthesia, which was defined as a mean arterial pressure < 60 mmHg, and the impact of 5-ALA administration on hypotension. RESULTS Of 324 patients considered, 153 (47.2 %) received 5-ALA preoperatively. The weighted incidence of hypotension was 23.3 % in patients taking 5-ALA, with an odds ratio of 4.21 (95 % confidence interval 2.07-8.55). Odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals for oral 5-ALA administration were 1.55 (1.23-1.96) for ephedrine, 1.18 (0.66-2.11) for phenylephrine, and 12.3 (5.73-26.5) for postoperative nausea and vomiting. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative oral 5-ALA administration was associated with hypotension during general anesthesia in patients who underwent TUR-BT despite receiving higher doses of ephedrine. Postoperative nausea and vomiting were also more common in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe hypotension is a notable adverse event caused by administration of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) during photodynamic diagnosis-assisted transurethral resection of bladder tumor (PDD-TURBT). Hypotension can be prolonged following induction of anesthesia and may require continuous administration of a vasopressor. Here, we investigated the risk factors for severe hypotension caused by oral administration of 5-ALA. METHODS A total of 128 patients with bladder tumors who underwent PDD-TURBT using 5-ALA were included in this study. Clinicopathological data were collected retrospectively and the correlations between the incidence of severe hypotension and clinicopathological factors were analyzed. RESULTS Severe hypotension developed in 8 cases (6.3 %). Age ≥ 80 years, body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 (kg/m2), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 45 (mL/min/1.73 m2) were significantly correlated with severe hypotension (P = 0.003, 0.017, and 0.027, respectively). Severe hypotension developed in 1 of 89 cases (1.1 %) which have 0 or 1 risk factor, and in 3 of 31 cases (9.7 %) which have 2 risk factors, whereas it developed in 4 of 8 cases (50 %) which have all risk factors. Patients with all risk factors developed severe hypotension significantly more frequently compared with patients with 1 or fewer risk factors (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Age ≥ 80 years, BMI ≥ 25, and eGFR < 45 are risk factors for severe hypotension in PDD-TURBT using 5-ALA. The risk of developing severe hypotension is extremely high in patients who have all factors. Adjustment of the 5-ALA dose may be desirable in those patients.
