Clin Pharmacol Ther 2024; 115:1141-1151.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have recently been reported to be linked with nephrotoxicity. PPIs are metabolized mainly or partly by cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19). However, the relationship between CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism and PPI-induced nephrotoxicity is unclear. In this study, we aimed to analyze the association between the time of occurrence of renal injury by PPIs, including lansoprazole, esomeprazole, rabeprazole, and vonoprazan, and CYP2C19 metabolizer status classified by CYP2C19 genotypes. Patients prescribed PPIs were reviewed in this retrospective cohort study. The primary outcome was the time to a 30% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from baseline. In patients treated with lansoprazole, the time to a 30% decrease in eGFR for the CYP2C19 poor metabolizer (PM) group was significantly shorter than that for the non-PM group (hazard ratio for PM vs. non-PM, 2.43, 95% confidence interval, 1.21 to 4.87, P = 0.012). In contrast, in patients that received esomeprazole, rabeprazole, or vonoprazan, no significant differences were found in the time to a 30% decrease in eGFR between non-PM and PM groups. The adjusted hazard ratios for the time to a 30% eGFR decrease in patients treated with lansoprazole were significantly higher for CYP2C19 PM, hypertension, and a history of myocardial infarction. In conclusion, this retrospective study showed that CYP2C19 metabolizer status was associated with the time to a 30% eGFR decrease in patients treated with lansoprazole, but not with esomeprazole, rabeprazole, or vonoprazan.

Proton pump inhibitors and the risk of acute kidney injury in cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors: A Danish population-based cohort study. Int J Cancer 2024; 154:1164-1173. [PMID: 37983738 DOI: 10.1002/ijc.34788] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
Previous studies have suggested that the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) more than doubles the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, this association may be confounded. Therefore, we conducted a register-based cohort study to examine the risk of AKI in users and nonusers of PPIs among cancer patients treated with ICIs in Denmark from 2011 through 2021 while accounting for a comprehensive range of potential confounders. PPI use was determined based on redeemed prescriptions of PPIs before ICI initiation. We identified laboratory-recorded AKI events within the first year after ICI initiation. We estimated the risks and hazard ratios (HRs) of AKI while accounting for a comprehensive range of confounders (including comorbidities and comedication) by propensity score weighting. Furthermore, we performed an additional per-protocol analysis while accounting for informative censoring by weighting. We identified 10 200 cancer patients including 2749 (27%) users, 6214 (61%) nonusers, and 1237 (12%) former users of PPIs. PPI users had an increased risk of AKI compared to nonusers (1-year risk, 24.7% vs 19.9%; HR, 1.42 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.29-1.56]); however, this association attenuated when accounting for confounders (weighted 1-year risk, 24.2% vs 23.8%; weighted HR, 1.06 [95% CI, 0.93-1.21]). In the per-protocol analysis, the crude HR was 1.86 (95% CI, 1.63-2.12), while the weighted HR was 1.24 (95% CI, 1.03-1.49). Thus, the association between PPI use and AKI could largely be explained by confounding, suggesting that previous studies may have overestimated the association.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely prescribed worldwide, often resulting in their overuse. Consequently, it is essential to identify the likely causes of this overuse to facilitate their appropriate prescription. OBJECTIVE This study aims to assess physician prescribing patterns, their knowledge of PPIs, and factors affecting their knowledge. METHODS An online survey was conducted among Latin American and Spanish physicians, collecting the following data: professional information, patterns of PPI usage, familiarity with published evidence, and the management approach in three hypothetical case-scenarios. Participant knowledge was categorized as sufficient or insufficient based on the results of the case scenarios. Subsequently, subgroup analysis was performed based on physician training level, years in practice, specialty, and time since the last PPI literature review. RESULTS A total of 371 physicians participated in the survey. Thirty-eight percent frequently prescribe PPIs, primarily for prophylactic purposes (57.9%). Eighty percent were unfamiliar with PPI deprescribing strategies, and 54.4% rarely reviewed the ongoing indication of patients taking a PPI. Sixty-four percent demonstrated sufficient knowledge in the case-scenarios. A significant association was observed between specialty type (medical vs surgical: 69.4% vs 46.8%, P<0.001), the timing of the PPI indication literature review (<5 years vs >5 years: 71.4% vs 58.7%, P=0.010), and sufficient knowledge. CONCLUSION While most participants prescribed PPIs regularly and for prophylaxis purposes, the majority were unfamiliar with deprescribing strategies and rarely reviewed ongoing indications. Sufficient knowledge is correlated with recent literature reviews and medical specialty affiliation. BACKGROUND • The study aims to evaluate physician prescribing patterns, assess their knowledge of proton pump inhibitors, and identify factors influencing their knowledge. BACKGROUND • An online survey of Latin American and Spanish physicians assessed proton pump inhibitor usage patterns and case-scenario responses, categorizing knowledge, and conducting subgroup analysis based on training, experience, specialty, and literature review timing. BACKGROUND • Thirty-eight percent of surveyed physicians commonly prescribed proton pump inhibitors, and among them, 80% were unfamiliar with deprescribing strategies, with 54.4% rarely reviewing ongoing indications. BACKGROUND • Sufficient knowledge was correlated with recent literature reviews and medical specialty affiliations.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is caused by a sudden loss of renal function, resulting in the build-up of waste products and a significant increase in mortality and morbidity. It is commonly diagnosed in critically ill patients, with its occurrence estimated at up to 50% in patients hospitalized in the intensive critical unit. Despite ongoing efforts, the death rate associated with AKI has remained high over the past half-century. Thus, it is critical to investigate novel therapy options for preventing the epidemic. Many studies have found that inflammation and Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR-4) activation have a significant role in the pathogenesis of AKI. Noteworthy, challenges in the search for efficient pharmacological therapy for AKI have arisen due to the multifaceted origin and complexity of the clinical history of people with the disease. This article focuses on kidney injury's epidemiology, risk factors, and pathophysiological processes. Specifically, it focuses on the role of TLRs especially type 4 in disease development.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been available for over three decades and are among the most commonly prescribed medications. They are effective in treating a variety of gastric acid-related disorders. They are freely available and based on current evidence, use of PPIs for inappropriate indications and duration appears to be common. Over the years, concerns have been raised on the safety of PPIs as they have been associated with several adverse effects. Hence, there is a need for PPI stewardship to promote the use of PPIs for appropriate indication and duration. With this objective, the Indian Society of Gastroenterology has formulated guidelines on the rational use of PPIs. The guidelines were developed using a modified Delphi process. This paper presents these guidelines in detail, including the statements, review of literature, level of evidence and recommendations. This would help the clinicians in optimizing the use of PPIs in their practice and promote PPI stewardship.

Abstract
Tacrolimus is a calcineurin inhibitor used to prevent rejection in allogenic solid organ transplant recipients, which is metabolized in the liver with cytochrome P450 isoforms 3A4 and 3A5 (CYP3A4, CYP3A5). In turn, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), such as Omeprazole - a substrate and inhibitor of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 enzymes - are administered to kidney transplant patients in order to prevent duodenal and gastric ulcer disease, associated with the glucocorticoid treatment. Simultaneous administration of both drugs in renal patients has the potential to trigger drug interactions. In fact, there are several mechanisms which may impact the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus. Inhibition of the CYP2C19 isoform may suppress the metabolism of omeprazole, subsequently altering its metabolic pathway to be metabolized by the CYP3A4 enzyme in order to maintain adequate biotransformation. Therefore, the competition for CYP3A4 may affect the metabolism of tacrolimus and result in its increased plasma concentrations, as well as in adverse reactions. Another mechanism has been related to the genetic polymorphism of the CYP2C19 isoform. Since all these interactions may lead to dysfunctions of the transplanted kidney, it seems significant to eliminate their consequences, for instance via the administration of drugs which are neither substrates, nor inhibitors of the CYP3A4 enzyme. Finally, the nephrotoxic effect of omeprazole should also be accounted for. Bearing in mind the aforementioned observations, the aim of the presented paper was to review the available studies addressing the effect of omeprazole on the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigate the longitudinal association of use and time of use of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) with incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and kidney function change. METHODS Prospective study with 13,909 participants from baseline (2008-2010) and second wave (2012-2014) of the ELSA-Brasil (mean interval between visits = 3.9 years (1.7-6.0)). Participants answered about use and time use of the PPI in the two weeks prior the interview. Renal function was assessed by glomerular filtration rate estimated by the Collaboration Equation for the Epidemiology of Chronic Kidney Disease. Values below 60ml/min/1.73 m² in wave 2 were considered incident CKD. Associations between PPI use and time of use at baseline and incident CKD and decline in renal function were estimated, respectively, by logistic regression and linear models with mixed effects, after adjusting for confounders. RESULTS After adjustments, PPI users for more than six months had an increased risk of CKD compared to non-users. Compared to non-users, users PPIs for up to six months and above six months had greater decline in kidney function over time. CONCLUSION This cohort of adults and elderly, after a mean interval of 3.9 years, PPI use and initial duration were associated with kidney function change between visits.

Abstract
Since their approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1989, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have become one of the most highly utilized drugs in the United States, assuming a position as one of the top 10 most prescribed medications in the country. The purpose of PPIs is to limit the amount of gastric acid secreted by the parietal cells via irreversible inhibition of the H+/K+-ATPase pump, therefore maintaining an elevated gastric acid pH of greater than 4 for 15-21 h. Even though PPIs have many clinical uses, they are not without their adverse effects, mimicking achlorhydria. Besides electrolyte abnormalities and vitamin deficiencies, long-term use of PPIs has been linked to acute interstitial nephritis, bone fractures, poor COVID-19 infection outcomes, pneumonia, and possibly an increase in all-cause mortality. The causality between PPI use and increased mortality and disease risk can be questioned since most studies are observational. Confounding variables can greatly affect an observational study and explain the wide-ranging associations with the use of PPIs. Patients on PPIs are generally older, obese, sicker with a higher number of baseline morbidities, and on more medications than the compared PPI non-users. These findings suggest that PPI users are at a higher risk of mortality and complications based on pre-existing conditions. This narrative review aims to update readers on the concerning effects that proton pump inhibitor use can have on patients and give providers a resource to create informed decisions on appropriate PPI use.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury is common among hospitalized individuals, particularly those exposed to certain medications, and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. In a pragmatic, open-label, National Institutes of Health-funded, parallel group randomized controlled trial (clinicaltrials.gov NCT02771977), we investigate whether an automated clinical decision support system affects discontinuation rates of potentially nephrotoxic medications and improves outcomes in patients with AKI. Participants included 5060 hospitalized adults with AKI and an active order for any of three classes of medications of interest: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, or proton pump inhibitors. Within 24 hours of randomization, a medication of interest was discontinued in 61.1% of the alert group versus 55.9% of the usual care group (relative risk 1.08, 1.04 - 1.14, p = 0.0003). The primary outcome - a composite of progression of acute kidney injury, dialysis, or death within 14 days - occurred in 585 (23.1%) of individuals in the alert group and 639 (25.3%) of patients in the usual care group (RR 0.92, 0.83 - 1.01, p = 0.09). Trial Registration Clinicaltrials.gov NCT02771977.

Maideen NMP. Adverse Effects Associated with Long-Term Use of Proton Pump Inhibitors. Chonnam Med J 2023; 59:115-127. [PMID: 37303818 PMCID: PMC10248387 DOI: 10.4068/cmj.2023.59.2.115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Proton Pump Inhibitors are used widely to manage many gastric acid-related conditions such as gastroesophageal disease, gastritis, esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, peptic ulcer disease, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-associated ulcers, and Helicobacter pylori eradication, around the globe. This review article focuses on adverse effects associated with the long-term use of proton pump inhibitors. Various observational studies, clinical trials, and meta-analyses have established the adverse effects associated with the long-term use of proton pump inhibitors including renal disorders (acute interstitial nephritis, acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease), cardiovascular risks (major adverse cardiovascular events, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, and stroke), fractures, infections (Clostridium difficile infection, community-acquired pneumonia, and Coronavirus disease 2019), micronutrient deficiencies (hypomagnesemia, anemia, vitamin B12 deficiency, hypocalcemia, hypokalemia), hypergastrinemia, cancers (gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, hepatic cancer), hepatic encephalopathy, and dementia. Clinicians including prescribers and pharmacists should be aware of the adverse effects of taking proton pump inhibitors for an extended period of time. In addition, the patients taking proton pump inhibitors for long-term should be monitored for the listed adverse effects. The American Gastroenterological association recommends a few non-pharmacological measures and the use of histamine 2 blockers to lessen gastrointestinal symptoms of gastroesophageal reflex disease and the utilization of proton pump inhibitors treatment if there is a definitive indication. Additionally, the American Gastroenterological association's Best Practice Advice statements emphasize deprescribing when there is no clear indication for proton pump inhibitors therapy.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely prescribed in medical practice for the treatment of several gastrointestinal disorders. Previous epidemiology studies have reported the association between PPI use and the risk of AKI, although the magnitude of the association between PPIs and the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) remains uncertain. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to determine the relationship between PPI therapy and the risk of AKI. We systematically searched for relevant articles published before January 2023 on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. In addition, we conducted a manual search of the bibliographies of potential articles. Two independent reviewers examined the appropriateness of all studies for inclusion. We pooled studies that compared the risk of AKI with PPI against their control using a random effect model. The search criteria based on PRISMA guidelines yielded 568 articles. Twelve observational studies included 2,492,125 individuals. The pooled adjusted RR demonstrated a significant positive association between PPI therapy and the risk of AKI (adjusted RR 1.75, 95% CI: 1.40-2.19, p < 0.001), and it was consistent across subgroups. A visual presentation of the funnel plot and Egger's regression test showed no evidence of publication bias. Our meta-analysis indicated that persons using PPIs exhibited an increased risk of AKI. North American individuals had a higher risk of AKI compared to Asian and European individuals. However, the pooled effect from observational studies cannot clarify whether the observed association is a causal effect or the result of some unmeasured confounding factors. Hence, the biological mechanisms underlying this association are still unclear and require further research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vonoprazan, a potassium-competitive acid blocker (VPZ), significantly reduces postoperative bleeding after gastric ESD; however, there is no consensus on the appropriate treatment duration. We conducted a randomized controlled study to demonstrate that the 3-week administration of VPZ is not inferior to the 8-week administration for ulcer healing. METHODS This is a prospective, open-label multicenter randomized controlled trial. Patients aged 20-85 years undergoing gastric ESD were included in this study. The key exclusion criteria were patients with bleeding tendencies and those taking NSAIDs, steroids, PPIs, or VPZ medications. Eligible patients were randomly assigned to the VPZ 3w or 8w treatment group. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients with complete closure of the post-ESD wound at 24 weeks after ESD. The key secondary endpoints included the proportion of patients with complete closure of the post-ESD wound at 8 weeks and the proportion of bleeding or perforation more than 3 weeks after ESD. RESULTS From May 2018 to October 2020, 234 patients were included. The proportion of patients with complete ulcer closure was significantly lower in the 3w group than in the 8w group (70.8% vs. 90.6%) at 8 weeks post-treatment. The complete closure rates at 24 weeks in the 3w and 8w groups were 99.1% and 99.2%, respectively. The absolute difference in the closure rate at 24 weeks was - 0.059% [95% confidence interval (CI) -3.4% to 3.2], and the lower limit of the 95% CI exceeded -10%, the preset threshold. None of the patients developed delayed bleeding 3 weeks after ESD. CONCLUSION This multicenter randomized study demonstrated that 3 weeks of treatment with VPZ is sufficient for ulcer healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma but are also associated with a risk of severe side effects. Nephrotoxicity is an immune checkpoint inhibitor-related adverse effect, but acute kidney injury (AKI) can also be caused by other more common conditions. This study aimed to describe the incidence and causes of AKI in patients treated with combination therapy of immune checkpoint inhibitors. MATERIAL AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 200 patients receiving ipilimumab and nivolumab for either metastatic renal cell carcinoma or malignant melanoma at the Department of Oncology at Copenhagen University Hospital, Herlev between 1 January 2019 and 31 December 2020. The incidence and cause of AKI within 6 months after treatment was determined. RESULTS In the 96 patients treated for malignant melanoma 15 patients (16%) had an episode of AKI. Two of these patients had potential immune checkpoint inhibitor-related AKI both of which received treatment with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI).Of the 104 included patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma 26 patients (25%) developed AKI. Five of these patients had potential immune checkpoint inhibitor-related AKI. Treatment with PPI before the development of AKI occurred in 4 out of these 5 patients. CONCLUSION Patients receiving combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors are at high risk of AKI, but different causes of AKI should always be considered. Use of PPI concurrently with ICIs is likely to increase the risk of AKI.

Abstract
Vancomycin is a potent antibiotic against Gram-positive bacteria; however, its use can be limited by nephrotoxicity. Several reports showed that proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are associated with renal impairment. Many hospitalized patients are prescribed both drugs. As the literature lacks data on the potential augmentation of acute kidney injury (AKI) risk with this combination, we aimed to assess such risk. This was a retrospective cohort study of hospitalized patients receiving either VAN-PPI or VAN alone for ≥72 h. Patients with a baseline serum creatinine (SCr) of ≥1.5 mg/dL were excluded. AKI incidence was assessed 3-5 days post VAN-PPI or VAN initiation. Of 300 patients, 186 were in the VAN-PPI group and 114 in the VAN group. The percentage of patients meeting AKI definition was not different between the two groups (11.8% vs. 7.9%; P = 0.277); however, the percentage change in SCr on Days 3-5 was only numerically higher in the VAN-PPI group (1% vs. -2.4%; P = 0.242). The distribution of patients meeting different RIFLE class criteria was not different (P = 0.320). Using VAN with PPI was not associated with augmented AKI risk. However, monitoring kidney function would still be recommended as a standard good clinical practice when either drug is used.

Risk of bias in non-randomized observational studies assessing the relationship between proton-pump inhibitors and adverse kidney outcomes: a systematic review. Therap Adv Gastroenterol 2022; 15:17562848221074183. [PMID: 35173802 PMCID: PMC8841917 DOI: 10.1177/17562848221074183] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2021] [Accepted: 12/27/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely prescribed as acid-suppression therapy. Some observational studies suggest that long-term use of PPIs is potentially associated with certain adverse kidney outcomes. We conducted a systematic literature review to assess potential bias in non-randomized studies reporting on putative associations between PPIs and adverse kidney outcomes (acute kidney injury, acute interstitial nephritis, chronic interstitial nephritis, acute tubular necrosis, chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease). METHODS We searched the medical literature within 10 years of 17 December 2020. Pre-specified criteria guided identification of relevant English language articles for assessment. Risk of bias on an outcome-specific basis was evaluated using the Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool by two independent reviewers. RESULTS Of 620 initially identified records, 26 studies met a priori eligibility criteria and underwent risk of bias assessment. Nineteen studies were judged as having a moderate risk of bias for reported adverse kidney outcomes, while six studies were judged as having a serious risk of bias (mainly due to inadequate control of confounders and selection bias). We were unable to determine the overall risk of bias in two studies (one of which was assessed as having a moderate risk of bias for a different adverse kidney outcome) due to insufficient information presented. Effect estimates for PPIs in relation to adverse kidney outcomes varied widely (0.24-7.34) but associations mostly showed increased risk. CONCLUSION Using ROBINS-I, we found that non-randomized observational studies suggesting kidney harm by PPIs have moderate to serious risk of bias, making it challenging to establish causality. Additional high-quality, real-world evidence among generalizable populations are needed to better understand the relation between PPI treatment and acute and chronic kidney outcomes, accounting for the effects of varying durations of PPI treatment, self-treatment with over-the-counter PPIs, and potential critical confounders.

Abstract
A proportion of patients require critical care support following elective or urgent colorectal procedures. Similarly, critically ill patients in intensive care units may also need colorectal surgery on occasions. This patient population is increasing in some jurisdictions given an aging population and increasing societal expectations. As such, this population often includes elderly, frail patients or patients with significant comorbidities. Careful stratification of operative risks including the need for prolonged intensive care support should be part of the consenting process. In high-risk patients, especially in setting of unplanned surgery, treatment goals should be clearly defined, and appropriate ceiling of care should be established to minimize care that is not in the best interest of the patient. In this article we describe approaches to critically unwell patients requiring colorectal surgery and how a multidisciplinary approach with proactive intensive care involvement can help achieve the best outcomes for these patients.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with “Triple Whammy” drug therapy consisting of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, diuretics, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been reported. There have been no reports investigating “Triple Whammy” drug therapy and the time to AKI onset using adverse drug events report databases. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the time to AKI onset and treatment with “Triple Whammy” drug therapy. We analyzed AKI cases registered in the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database. The data were analyzed using the Kaplan–Meier approach, generalized Wilcoxon tests, and Weibull distribution. AKI was reported in 18,415 cases, of which 7,466 cases used Triple Whammy drugs. All combinations of Triple Whammy drugs were associated with significantly higher odds ratios for reporting AKI. In Weibull analysis, AKI onset was early for most combination patterns of Triple Whammy drugs. The Kaplan–Meier approach showed that the treatment duration to AKI onset was much shorter in cases using NSAIDs; median onsets, 8 days for triple combination, 7 days for NSAIDs added to renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, 9 days for NSAIDs added to diuretics, 6 days for diuretics added to NSAIDs, and 9 days for NSAIDs alone. AKI associated with Triple Whammy drugs is likely to occur in the early stages of treatment, especially with concomitant NSAIDs. Patients should be monitored for the occurrence of AKI within the first 2 weeks.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) continues to be among the most common diseases seen by gastroenterologists, surgeons, and primary care physicians. Our understanding of the varied presentations of GERD, enhancements in diagnostic testing, and approach to patient management have evolved. During this time, scrutiny of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) has increased considerably. Although PPIs remain the medical treatment of choice for GERD, multiple publications have raised questions about adverse events, raising doubts about the safety of long-term use and increasing concern about overprescribing of PPIs. New data regarding the potential for surgical and endoscopic interventions have emerged. In this new document, we provide updated, evidence-based recommendations and practical guidance for the evaluation and management of GERD, including pharmacologic, lifestyle, surgical, and endoscopic management. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system was used to evaluate the evidence and the strength of recommendations. Key concepts and suggestions that as of this writing do not have sufficient evidence to grade are also provided.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute-on-chronic kidney disease (ACKD) is poorly understood and often overlooked. We studied its incidence, circumstances, determinants, and outcomes in patients with CKD. METHODS We used the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria to identify all-stage acute kidney injury (AKI) events in 3033 nephrology outpatients with CKD stage 3-5 participating in the CKD-REIN cohort study (2013-2020), and cause-specific Cox models to estimate hazard ratios (HR, 95% confidence intervals [CI]) of AKI-associated risk factors. RESULTS At baseline, 22% of the patients (mean age 67 years, 65% men, mean eGFR 32 ml/min/1.73m2) had a history of AKI. Over a 3-year follow-up, 443 had at least one AKI event: 27% were stage 2 or 3, and 11% required dialysis; 74% involved hospitalization including 47% acquired as hospital inpatients; a third were not reported in hospital discharge reports. Incidence rates were 10.1 and 4.8 per 100 person-years in patients with and without an AKI history, respectively. In 2375 patients without this history, male sex, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cirrhosis, several drugs, low eGFR, and serum albumin levels were significantly associated with a higher risk of AKI, as were low birth weight (<2500 g) (adjusted HR, 1.98; 95%CI, 1.35 to 2.91) and hemoglobin level (HR 1.21; 1.12 to 1.32 per 1 g/dl decrease). Within one year, only 63% of the patients had recovered their previous kidney function, 13.7% had started kidney replacement therapy, and 12.7% had died. CONCLUSIONS The study highlights the high rate of hospital-acquired AKI events in patients with CKD, and their underreporting at hospital discharge. It also reveals low birth weight and anemia as possible new risk factors in CKD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used to treat and prevent acid-related disorders. Despite high efficacy, PPI safety has been increasingly scrutinised. However, no comprehensive review summarising investigations of various adverse events is available. AIMS To perform an umbrella review to comprehensively assess associations between adverse events and PPI use. METHODS In accordance with PRISMA, an umbrella review of systematic reviews with meta-analyses was conducted. PubMed and EMBASE were searched from 2015 to July 2019. AMSTAR 2 and GRADE were used to assess quality and certainty of evidence. Author-reported quality assessments were also reviewed. RESULTS Forty-two systematic reviews with meta-analyses, supported predominantly by observational evidence, were included. The most comprehensive studies reported statistically significant associations with PPI use for several outcomes, including: fractures (eg, hip; RR = 1.20; 95% CI = 1.14-1.28; n = 2 103 800), kidney disease (eg, acute kidney injury; RR = 1.61; 95% CI = 1.16-2.22; n = 2 396 640), infections (eg, Clostridioides difficile; OR = 1.99; 95% CI = 1.73-2.30; n = 356 683), gastric cancer (OR = 2.50; 95% CI = 1.74-3.85; n = 943 070) and gastrointestinal events (eg, fundic gland polyps; OR = 2.46; 95% CI = 1.42-4.27; n = 40 218). No associations with non-gastric cancers, or neurological disease were concluded, with conflicting evidence for cardiovascular outcomes. Certainty based on GRADE was very low for most outcomes. CONCLUSIONS This review identified several published associations between PPIs and adverse outcomes, however, further investigation is needed to understand their clinical significance and the likelihood of causal relationship. If higher quality evidence is generated substantiating the potential risks, it may be necessary for clinicians to consider alternative treatment strategies, especially when PPI efficacy is suboptimal.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used to treat gastroesophageal reflex disease, peptic ulcer disease, and stress ulcer prophylaxis. This study estimated the progress rate of renal dysfunction in patients taking PPIs in clinical settings and compared the results with those of patients taking histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients' data collected from Kochi Medical School Hospital's information system between 2001 and 2019. Patients were classified into PPI and H2RA groups, and survival time was defined as the period between initial drug administration and a 30% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). RESULTS On survival analysis, the PPI group was associated with higher event incidence rates compared to that in the H2RA group. The rate of underlying disease was significantly higher in the PPI group than in the H2RA group, with no significant differences in age and sex between the groups. Comparing the PPI group to the H2RA group, the use of aspirin, clopidogrel, statin, and angiotensin II receptor blocker was significantly higher, whereas the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and steroids was significantly less. Regarding survival rate and 30% decrease in eGFR, the PPI group had a significantly higher survival rate compared to that in the H2RA group at 730 days, but not earlier. PPI use, older age, and eGFR ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 exhibited high hazard ratios. CONCLUSIONS PPI use was significantly associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease development compared to that with H2RA use.

Abstract
Proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most effective therapy for gastric acid- related diseases. They are generally well tolerated with rare, often self-limiting adverse reactions. On the other hand, there is growing concern regarding the increased public access and inappropriate PPI use. This review aims to give a critical appraisal of current literature and to analyze a possible relationship between renal disorders and PPI use. A plethora of observational pharmacoepidemiological studies link PPI therapy to the development of acute interstitial nephritis (AIN). Most of these studies show a higher risk for acute kidney injury, de novo chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease. However, current evidence is inadequate to establish a causal relationship between PPI use and many of the proposed renal syndromes. Residual confounding and bias related to study design and the over extrapolation of quantitatively small treatment effects contributed to the unnecessary controversy about PPI safety. Undoubtedly, PPI use may rarely induce AIN. Given the worldwide use of PPIs, the number of patients with biopsy- proven AIN is extremely small. However, more research is required to explore the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and possible differences between commercially available PPIs regarding adverse renal effects. Till then, the PPIs should be used in the lowest effective dose, and inappropriate use should be avoided.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) were widely used. Observational studies suggested increasing risk of kidney injury in patients with PPIs treatment. We gathered six PPI regimens and adverse reports of acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) based on US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database from 2004 to 2019. We employed reporting odds ratio (ROR) to detect signals. Finally, we identified 3187 PPIs-associated AKI cases and 3457 PPIs-associated CKD cases. We detected significant signals between PPIs and AKI as well as CKD. The signal strength was stronger for CKD (ROR = 8.80, 95% CI 8.49–9.13) than AKI (ROR = 3.95, 95% CI 3.81–4.10), while dexlansoprazole performed stronger association for CKD (ROR = 34.94, 95% CI 30.89–39.53) and AKI (ROR = 8.18, 95% CI 7.04–9.51) than the other five PPIs. The median time from PPIs use to event occurrence was 23 days for AKI and 177 days for CKD. PPIs-associated AKI resulted larger proportion of death, life-threatening, hospitalization and disability events than PPIs-associated CKD. By mining the FAERS big data, we provided more information between PPIs use and the AKI and CKD events. PPIs rational use should be repeatedly stressed.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the association between proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and both all-cause and cause-specific mortality. METHODS We conducted a cohort study using the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink GOLD database. We compared 733 885 new users of PPIs to 124 410 new users of H2 receptor antagonists (H2Ras). In a secondary analysis we compared 689 602 PPI new users to 1 361 245 nonusers of acid suppression therapy matched on age, sex and calendar year. Hazard ratios for all-cause and cause-specific mortality were estimated using propensity score (PS) weighted Cox models. RESULTS PPI prescription was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality, with hazard ratios decreasing considerably by increasing adjustment (unadjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.65, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.62-1.69; PS-weighted HR 1.38, 95% CI 1.33-1.44; high-dimensional PS-weighted HR 1.31, 95% CI 1.26-1.37). Short-term associations were observed with mortality from causes where a causal short-term association is unexpected (eg, lung cancer mortality: PS-weighted HR at 6 months 1.77, 95% CI 1.39-2.25). Adjusted hazard ratios were substantially higher when compared to nonusers (PS-weighted HR all-cause mortality 1.96, 95% CI 1.94-1.99) rather than H2RA users. CONCLUSIONS PPI prescription was strongly associated with all-cause and cause-specific mortality. However, the change in hazard ratios (a) by increasing adjustment and (b) between comparator groups indicates that residual confounding is likely to explain the association between poor health outcomes and PPI use, and fully accounting for this using observational data may not be possible.

Abstract
AIMS Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) has been associated with adverse kidney events in the general population, but their impact among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is unclear. We studied the prevalence and incidence (new users) of PPI prescriptions and their relation to kidney outcomes and mortality in CKD patients. METHODS We collected drug prescriptions prospectively in a cohort of 3023 nephrology outpatients with CKD stages 2-5 at inclusion. Hazard ratios (HR, 95% confidence intervals [95% CI]) for acute kidney injury (AKI), end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), and mortality associated with new PPI prescriptions as a time-dependent variable were estimated with cause-specific Cox models in 1940 non-users with eGFR ≥ 15 mL/min/1.73 m2 at baseline, adjusted for comorbidities, laboratory data and drugs. RESULTS There were 981/3023 (32%) prevalent users (67 ± 13 years, 65% men) at baseline, and 366/3023 (12%) were prescribed PPI (new users) over a median follow-up of 3.9 years (interquartile range, 3-4.2). Among these new users, their median cumulative duration of prescription was 1 year (interquartile range: 0.4-2.3). During follow-up, 354 patients developed ESKD and 216 died before ESKD. The adjusted HRs associated with PPI prescription were 1.74 (95% CI, 1.26-2.40) for ESKD and 2.42 (95% CI, 1.73-3.39) for all-cause mortality. Over the first 3 years of follow-up, 211 AKI events had occurred. The adjusted HR for AKI associated with PPI prescription was 2.89 (95% CI, 1.91-4.38). CONCLUSIONS Long-term PPI prescription was common in CKD patients. Our results call attention to its potential risks of both acute and chronic kidney failure.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) marked a before and after in the management of gastric acid-related disorders since their introduction to the market in 1989. Due to a novel, highly effective mechanism of action blocking the last converging step of gastric acid secretion by parietal cells and very few and mostly tolerable side effects, these drugs quickly displaced other pharmacological compounds such as H2 antagonists as the first treatment choice for peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal ulcers, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-associated ulcers, and eradication of Helicobacter pylori, leading to an exponential increase in their prescription up to now. However, widespread PPI use has led to emerging evidence of long-term adverse effects not described previously, including increased risk of kidney, liver, and cardiovascular disease, dementia, enteroendocrine tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, susceptibility to respiratory and gastrointestinal infections, and impaired absorption of nutrients. Although the evidence published thus far has not established strong correlations, it has been relevant enough to raise new questions about PPIs' safety profile and reconsideration of their clinical indications. Hence, the aim of this review is to evaluate the association between PPI use and the risk of serious adverse effects given increasing concerns about the overuse of PPIs in the general population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Recent evidence has concerned acute kidney injury (AKI) after the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) application. There are few real-world studies to compare the occurrences, clinical features, and prognosis of AKI related to various PPI regimens. We aimed to evaluate and compare the links between different PPIs and AKI in a large population by investigating the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) until recently. METHODS Disproportionality analysis and Bayesian analysis were used in data mining to screen the suspected AKI after different PPIs based on the FAERS from January 2004 to December 2019. The times to onset, fatality, and hospitalization rates of PPI-associated AKI were also investigated. RESULTS We identified 19 522 PPI-associated AKIs, which appeared to influence more middle-aged patients than elderly ones (53.04% vs 33.94%). Women were more affected than men (55.42% vs 44.58%). Lansoprazole appeared a stronger AKI association than other PPIs, based on the highest reporting odds ratio (reporting odds ratio = 20.8, 95% confidence interval = 20.16, 21.46), proportional reporting ratio (proportional reporting ratio = 15.55, χ2 = 73 899.68), and empirical Bayes geometric mean (empirical Bayes geometric mean = 15.15, 95% confidence interval = 14.76). The median time to AKI onset was 446 (interquartile range [IQR] 16-2176) days after PPI administration. PPIs showed a significant difference in average time to AKI onset (P < 0.001), with the shortest of 9 (IQR 3-25) days for rabeprazole and the longest of 1221 (IQR 96.5-2620) days for esomeprazole. PPI-associated AKI generally led to a 5.69% fatality rate and an 8.94% hospitalization rate. The highest death rate occurred in rabeprazole (15.35%). CONCLUSIONS Based on the FAERS database, we profiled AKI related to various PPIs with more details in occurrences, clinical characteristics, and prognosis. Concern should be paid for PPIs when applied to patients with a tendency for AKI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and histamine-2 receptor antagonist (H2RA) prescribing patterns over a 29-year period by quantifying annual prevalence and prescribing intensity over time. DESIGN Population-based cross-sectional study. SETTING More than 700 general practices contributing data to the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD). PARTICIPANTS Within a cohort of 14 242 329 patients registered in the CPRD, 3 027 383 patients were prescribed at least one PPI or H2RA from 1 January 1990 to 31 December 2018. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Annual prescription rates were estimated by dividing the number of patients prescribed a PPI or H2RA by the total CPRD population. Change in prescribing intensity (number of prescriptions per year divided by person-years of follow-up) was calculated using negative binomial regression. RESULTS From 1990 to 2018, 21.3% of the CPRD population was exposed to at least one acid suppressant drug. During that period, PPI prevalence increased from 0.2% to 14.2%, while H2RA prevalence remained low (range: 1.2%-3.4%). Yearly prescribing intensity to PPIs increased during the first 15 years of the study period but remained relatively constant for the remainder of the study period. In contrast, yearly prescribing intensity of H2RAs decreased from 1990 to 2009 but has begun to slightly increase over the past 5 years. CONCLUSIONS While PPI prevalence has been increasing over time, its prescribing intensity has recently plateaued. Notwithstanding their efficacy, PPIs are associated with a number of adverse effects not attributed to H2RAs, whose prescribing intensity has begun to increase. Thus, H2RAs remain a valuable treatment option for individuals with gastric conditions.

Abstract
Nephrotoxic effects of certain chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin and ifosfamide has been well documented and these effects are carefully managed by oncologists during their usage. The introduction of targeted agents has added a new challenge to cancer management as their nephrotoxic effects and associated management is in the process of being adopted by oncologists. This work is a compilation of side effects on the renal system due to various chemotherapeutic, immunotherapeutic and targeted agents followed by their recommended management.

Pharmacol Res Perspect 2020; 8:e00651. [PMID: 32996701 PMCID: PMC7525804 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.651] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2020] [Revised: 08/12/2020] [Accepted: 08/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) were primarily approved for short-term use (2 to 8 weeks). However, PPI use continues to expand. Widely believed to be safe, we reviewed emerging evidence on increased mortality with PPI long-term use. Our 2016 systematic PPI drug class review found that mortality was not reported as an outcome in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that directly compared different PPIs. We sought more recent and comprehensive data on PPI harm outcomes from research syntheses as a follow-on. A search was conducted from January 2014 to January 2020. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central for evidence from systematic reviews (SRs) and primary studies reporting all-cause mortality in adults treated with a PPI for any indication (duration >12 weeks) compared to patients without PPI treatment (no use, placebo, or H2RA use). Two independent investigators assessed study eligibility, synthesized evidence, and assessed the quality of the included studies. Data on all-cause mortality were sought, analyzed, critically examined, and interpreted herein. From 1304 articles, one SR was identified that reported on all-cause mortality. The SRs pooled three observational studies with data to 1 year: odds ratio, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.53-1.84. A RCT, the COMPASS (Cardiovascular Outcomes for People Using Anticoagulant Strategies) RCT with data to 3 years: hazard ratio (HR) 1.03, 95% CI 0.92-1.15. The US Veterans Affairs cohort study using a large national dataset with data to 10 years found a HR of 1.17, 95% CI (1.10-1.24) and (NNH) of 22. The most common causes of death were from cardiovascular and chronic kidney diseases, with an excess death of 15 and 4 per 1000 patients, respectively, over the 10-year period. Harms arising from real-world medication use are best evaluated using a pharmacovigilance "convergence of proof" approach using data from a variety of sources and various study designs. Given that most PPI indications for use recommended a treatment duration of less than 12 weeks, it seems clear that PPIs were significantly overused in older patients. The median exposure time to PPI ranged from 1 to 4.6 years. Signals of serious harms including increased mortality with long-term PPI use are reported in observational studies. The COMPASS trial findings are not inconsistent with contemporaneous findings from observational studies. The COMPASS RCT was unlikely to detect an increase in mortality given the trial was not powered to detect this outcome. The potential increase in mortality in older patients associated with prolonged PPI exposure needs to be conveyed to health professionals. Clinicians and patients may be able to reverse the relentless expansion of long-term PPI exposure by reviewing indications and considering potential harms as well as benefits.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most widely prescribed medications worldwide and their use is continuously increasing. Although they have been shown to combine high therapeutic efficacy and good safety profile in many studies, in last years we have witnessed the publication of many articles reporting the possible association of long-term PPI therapy with important unexpected adverse events and these observations have created alarmism in both patients and physicians. However, the majority of these studies are observational, retrospective and prone to residual confounding. Also, the odds ratio values are generally comprised between 1 and 2 and therefore devoid of strong clinical relevance. As it is unlikely that prospective randomized trials will be ever done to reinforce these associations, we can only attempt to distinguish clear- from unclear-defined adverse events from the available literature. Nowadays we can reasonably exclude cardiovascular diseases, community-acquired pneumonia, all-cause mortality, dementia and bone fractures from PPI-related adverse events. However, physicians should be aware of the existence of possible risks when treating their patients, especially the elderly and frail ones, with long-term PPIs, which should be prescribed only to persons with defined indications and at lowest dose and duration.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) continue to be the medication of choice for treatment of acid-related disease, with few if any overt side effects seen with daily use. They are often prescribed empirically, often in high doses and with many patients being treated with multiple PPIs without an objective diagnosis. Therefore, they are believed to be overprescribed and used without indication. In this article we discuss the appropriate clinical indications for PPIs, review in detail the major associated adverse events, and put in perspective key issues in balancing benefits and risk of this exceptional (and safe) class of drug.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies investigating the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) on the risk of liver cancer and/or mortality among persons with chronic liver disease (CLD) have reported conflicting results. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the impact of PPI use on liver cancer and/or death among patients with CLD. METHODS The core databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane library were searched through January 2020. We included studies, evaluating the association between PPIs and liver cancer or mortality among patients with CLD including randomized controlled, nonrandomized controlled, and observational studies. We used inverse-variance random-effects models to estimate the pooled relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for liver cancer or mortality. RESULTS Eleven studies including 173,894 patients were selected. In three studies, individuals with CLD who used PPIs had a 67% greater risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) compared to nonusers (RR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.12-2.50; I2 = 92%). Combining data from the eight studies relating PPI to overall mortality, we observed a 57% increased risk of mortality in PPI users with CLD compared to CLD nonusers (RR: 1.57; 95% CI, 1.24-1.99; I2 = 69%). CONCLUSION PPI use was associated with an increased risk of HCC and mortality in patients with CLD suggesting that PPI prescriptions in patients with CLD should be considered carefully.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been reported to increase the risk of acute and chronic renal disease. However, the data are unclear in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring dialysis (AKI-D) who are often candidates for PPIs. To investigate this important issue, we identified 26,052 AKI-D patients from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database weaning from dialysis. During a mean follow-up period of 3.52 years, the PPI users had a higher incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) than the PPI nonusers (P < 0.001). After propensity score matching and treating mortality as a competing risk factor, the PPI users had a higher risk of ESRD (subhazard ratio (sHR) 1.40; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.31-1.50) and major adverse cardiac events (MACE, sHR 1.53; 95% CI, 1.37-1.71) compared with the PPI nonusers with AKI-D survivors. In conclusion, the use of PPIs was associated with a higher risk of ESRD and MACE, compared with the PPI nonusers in AKI-D patients who weaned from dialysis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Colistimethate sodium (colistin) is used to treat multidrug-resistant gram negative infections. We describe the profile and outcomes of patients given colistin in a tertiary level government hospital in Manila, Philippines. METHODS We performed a retrospective study of adult patients given intravenous colistin between January 2015 to June 2018 in the Philippine General Hospital. We defined clinical success as a composite of hemodynamic stability, quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score, and microbiological cure. RESULTS 250 patients were included, half (49.2%) were admitted in the ICU. Median age was 55 years. There was an increase in qSOFA, APACHE II score, and septic shock from baseline to 24 h prior to colistin use. Most patients had pneumonia (90.8%) with extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii as the most common isolate (78.8%). Colistin was given in combination with meropenem (96.4%) for a median of 12 days. Nephrotoxicity was seen in 30.8%, with renal replacement therapy needed in 6%. Clinical success was seen in 61.2% of patients and overall mortality was 41.6%. CONCLUSION Colistin was frequently used in combination with a carbapenem for treatment of XDR-related respiratory infections. Nephrotoxicity was a common adverse effect. Clinical success was modest and overall mortality was high.

Abstract
Renal infarction is an uncommon condition resulting from an acute disruption of renal blood flow and it is potentially life-threatening disease. The cause and outcome of renal infarction is not well established and is frequently misdiagnosed or diagnosed late. Melanotan II is a non-selective melanocortin-receptor agonist and its effect on humans is an increasing of skin pigmentation, producing of spontaneous penile erection and sexual stimulation. Melanotan II inducing rhabdomyolysis and renal failure have been described previously. We present a review of Melanotan II and the possible effects of this drug on the kidneys by including a case of a renal infarction most likely attributed to Melanotan II. In the mechanism of renal injury with Melanotan II, thrombotic pharmacological influence and possible direct toxic effect on renal parenchyma must be considered.

Abstract
A substantial volume of literature exists linking proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use with a multitude of serious adverse events. There is uncertainty, however, over whether these associations are clinically important. Excessive concern about PPI-related adverse events may leave patients at risk of harm by leaving acid-related upper gastrointestinal disease untreated. Conversely, the risk of treatments may outweigh the benefits if any of the purported adverse events are directly caused by PPI use; this is of particular concern where indications for PPI use are not present. In this paper, we review the studies which have reported associations between adverse events and PPI use, discuss the proposed mechanisms of action, grade the confidence in whether these associations are truly causal, and provide advice regarding balancing the benefits of PPI use against their possible harms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the rate of successful deprescribing of unnecessary proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) after implementation of a clinical pharmacist- managed program that included detailed tapering instructions, patient education, and follow-up. SETTING The setting was a family medicine clinic in St. Paul, MN, in an underserved community. PRACTICE DESCRIPTION Eligible patients were taking a long-term PPI for gastroesophageal reflux disease without esophagitis, or without a clear indication. Each morning, the clinical pharmacist generated a report in the electronic medical record that identified patients with appointments who were currently prescribed a PPI. After chart review, the pharmacist determined if patients were candidates for PPI deprescribing. If so, a focused visit with these patients was conducted. PRACTICE INNOVATION A unique pharmacist-managed PPI tapering schedule was developed and implemented to deprescribe unnecessary PPI therapy in a family medicine clinic. EVALUATION Eligible patients were seen by the pharmacist and initiated on a PPI taper. After 8 weeks, the patients who were initiated on a PPI taper were evaluated to determine if they successfully discontinued the PPI completely, decreased the dose or frequency, or were unsuccessful at tapering the PPI. RESULTS Of the patients assessed (N = 126), 60% were excluded, 19% were unable to be seen, and 21% were willing to attempt the taper and discontinue their PPI. Of the 22 patients who initiated PPI deprescribing, 19 (86%) successfully discontinued their PPI completely, 2 (9%) decreased the dose or frequency, and 1 (5%) was unable to decrease or discontinue their PPI. This success rate of PPI discontinuation was higher than that in previous studies in primary care settings (31%-66%). CONCLUSION Deprescribing long-term PPI therapy can be successful in a family medicine clinic when implementing a clinical pharmacist-managed program that includes detailed tapering instructions, patient education, and follow-up.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a commonly encountered syndrome associated with various aetiologies and pathophysiological processes leading to decreased kidney function. In addition to retention of waste products, impaired electrolyte homeostasis and altered drug concentrations, AKI induces a generalized inflammatory response that affects distant organs. Full recovery of kidney function is uncommon, which leaves these patients at risk of long-term morbidity and death. Estimates of AKI prevalence range from <1% to 66%. These variations can be explained by not only population differences but also inconsistent use of standardized AKI classification criteria. The aetiology and incidence of AKI also differ between high-income and low-to-middle-income countries. High-income countries show a lower incidence of AKI than do low-to-middle-income countries, where contaminated water and endemic diseases such as malaria contribute to a high burden of AKI. Outcomes of AKI are similar to or more severe than those of patients in high-income countries. In all resource settings, suboptimal early recognition and care of patients with AKI impede their recovery and lead to high mortality, which highlights unmet needs for improved detection and diagnosis of AKI and for efforts to improve care for these patients.

Potential Adverse Drug Events and Nephrotoxicity Related to Prophylaxis With Omeprazole for Digestive Disorders: A Prospective Cohort Study. Clin Ther 2019; 40:973-982.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess whether prophylaxis for digestive disorders with omeprazole is a risk factor for adverse drug events (ADEs) and kidney impairment. METHODS This was a 9-month, prospective, double-blinded cohort study performed in a Brazilian public hospital. All inpatients 18 years or older admitted during the period of data collection were divided into 2 cohorts. The first group comprised 200 patients receiving prophylaxis for digestive disorders with omeprazole. A total of 54 inpatients who received treatment with omeprazole and whose indication was not approved by the Brazilian Sanitary Agency and the US Food and Drug Administration were excluded. The second group comprised 219 inpatients without a prescription for omeprazole. Follow-up was performed until discharge and included assessment of medical records, medical prescriptions, laboratory data, and pharmaceutical anamnesis. The primary end point was kidney impairment. The variables monitored were kidney function (serum creatinine and urea levels as well as glomerular filtration rate), hepatic function (alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels), pharmacotherapy, magnesium levels, and imputation of ADEs. With the aid of algorithms of World Health Organization and the National Coordinating Council for Medication Error Reporting and Prevention, we assessed the causality of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and the seriousness of medication errors (ADEs), respectively. FINDINGS Prophylaxis for digestive disorders with omeprazole (P = 0.019) and sex (P = 0.010) were considered risk factors for increased serum creatinine level via multivariate logistic regression even with concomitant use of nephrotoxic drugs (P = 0.252). Six ADEs related to omeprazole were identified: 2 ADRs (1 possible and 1 definite), 2 medication errors (nonserious), 1 therapeutic failure, and 1 drug-drug interaction. IMPLICATIONS Prophylaxis for digestive disorders with omeprazole and male sex may contribute to the development of kidney impairment because both result in increased serum creatinine levels. Therefore, pharmacotherapeutic follow-up of male patients diagnosed with kidney disorders should be considered to identify potential drug-drug interactions early. This follow-up can prevent worsening clinical conditions and/or contraindicate prophylactic use of omeprazole. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02278432.

J Clin Pharm Ther 2019; 44:209-215. [PMID: 30332507 DOI: 10.1111/jcpt.12769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2018] [Revised: 08/23/2018] [Accepted: 09/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Mounting evidence suggests that long-term use of gastric-acid suppressants (GASs) may be associated with adverse effects. Whether GAS use increases the risk of enteric peritonitis in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) is not known. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the association between GAS use and enteric peritonitis in PD patients. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library databases from inception to 23 January 2018 to identify eligible studies. The primary outcome was an association between GAS use and enteric peritonitis in PD patients. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Six studies involving 829 people were included in this meta-analysis. Pooled data showed that GAS use in PD patients was associated with an increased risk of enteric peritonitis (odds ratio [OR] = 1.27; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02-1.57, I2 = 48%). Subgroup analyses based on GAS type revealed that histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2 RAs) might increase the risk of enteric peritonitis in PD patients (OR = 1.40; 95% CI: 1.01-1.93; I2 = 8%), but proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) might not (1.13; 0.72-1.77; 6; 34%). WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION Gastric-acid suppressants use might be a risk factor for enteric peritonitis in PD patients. In particular, H2 RAs increased the risk of enteric peritonitis, but PPIs did not. Therefore, to prevent enteric peritonitis, H2 RAs should probably be prescribed with caution for PD patients.

Abstract
This report reviews the physiology of gastric acid suppression by proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and anti-inflammatory effects of PPIs that are independent of their acid-suppressive effects. Valid indications for PPI use are discussed, as are putative adverse effects of PPIs that have been identified through weak associations in observational studies that cannot establish cause-and-effect relationships. Although evidence supporting the validity of these adverse effects is weak, there is also insufficient evidence to dismiss the risks. The report emphasizes how PPIs frequently are prescribed inappropriately and encourages physicians to carefully consider the indication for PPI therapy in their patients.

Abstract
AIMS Chronic kidney disease consumes a huge amount of medical resources and proton pump inhibitors may be a potential factor for the increasing prevalence. This population-based cohort study investigates the risk of chronic kidney disease in a diabetic population using proton pump inhibitors in Taiwan. METHODS This study is based on a specific diabetic database obtained from the National Health Insurance Research Database. Individuals with a new diagnosis of diabetes from 2002 to 2013 were enrolled. "Exposure" to proton pump inhibitors was defined as at least one prescription and dosage over 180 DDD (defined daily dose) in one year after the index date. A multivariable Cox proportional hazard model and competing-risk regression model were applied. RESULTS There were 5994 patients in the final cohort of proton pump inhibitor users and 23,976 patients in the matched controlled cohort based on 1:4 propensity score matching. Compared with no exposure users, PPIs exposure group had more anemia prevalence, anti-hypertension medication and NSAIDs prescriptions. The multivariable Cox proportional hazard model showed that the adjusted hazard ratio of chronic kidney disease was 1.52 (95% CI 1.40-1.65) in diabetic individuals with PPIs exposure, compared with no exposure users. CONCLUSIONS Proton pump inhibitors use is associated with 1.52-fold increased risk of chronic kidney disease in diabetic patients when the dosage is over 180 DDD in one year in Taiwan.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) have been associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our objective was to quantify the association between PPI use and incident CKD in a population-based cohort. METHODS AND FINDINGS We used a population-based retrospective cohort, including people aged 15 years or over, between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2012. PPI use was measured in a follow-up session by recording prescriptions. Incident CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 ml/ min/1.73 m2 and/or urinary albumin level to creatinine level ≥ 30 mg/g, in two or more determinations over a period of at least 3 months of the follow-up. Proton Pump Inhibitor use was associated with incident CKD in analysis adjusted for different clinical variables (Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.18; 95% CI 1.04-1.51) in individuals who used PPI in the basal visit (HR 1.37; 95% CI 1.25-1.50) and in those who started to use PPI during the follow-up. High doses of PPI increased the risk of incident CKD (HR 1.92; 95%CI 1.00-6.19) for any type of exposure to PPIs (HR 2.40; 95%CI 1.65-3.46) and for individuals who used high doses throughout the follow-up. This risk of incident CKD increased after three months' exposure to PPIs, (HR1.78; 95% CI 1.39-2.25) between the third and sixth months and (HR 1.30; 95%CI 1.07-1.72) after the sixth month. CONCLUSIONS PPI use is associated with a higher risk of incident CKD. This association is greater for high doses and becomes apparent after three months' exposure.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) bind to enzyme H+/K+-ATPase
and inhibit its activity in the stomach, thus decreasing the secretion of
gastric acid. PPIs may trigger acute interstitial nephritis, a potentially
severe adverse event commonly associated with acute kidney injury. Studies have
found that prolonged use of PPIs may increase the risk of chronic kidney disease
(CKD). The increase in prescription and inadequate use of this class of
medication calls for studies on the effects of prolonged PPI therapy on renal
function. Therefore, this review aimed to analyze recent studies on the matter
and discuss the possible consequences of the long-term use of PPIs on renal
function.
