- Abstract
Importance: Lip, oral, and pharyngeal cancers are important contributors to cancer burden worldwide, and a comprehensive evaluation of their burden globally, regionally, and nationally is crucial for effective policy planning. Objective: To analyze the total and risk-attributable burden of lip and oral cavity cancer (LOC) and other pharyngeal cancer (OPC) for 204 countries and territories and by Socio-demographic Index (SDI) using 2019 Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors (GBD) Study estimates. Evidence review: The incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) due to LOC and OPC from 1990 to 2019 were estimated using GBD 2019 methods. The GBD 2019 comparative risk assessment framework was used to estimate the proportion of deaths and DALYs for LOC and OPC attributable to smoking, tobacco, and alcohol consumption in 2019. Findings: In 2019, 370 000 (95% uncertainty interval [UI], 338 000–401 000) cases and 199 000 (95% UI, 181 000–217 000) deaths for LOC and 167 000 (95% UI, 153 000‐180 000) cases and 114 000 (95% UI, 103 000–126 000) deaths for OPC were estimated to occur globally, contributing 5.5 million (95% UI, 5.0‐6.0 million) and 3.2 million (95% UI, 2.9‐3.6 million) DALYs, respectively. From 1990 to 2019, low-middle and low SDI regions consistently showed the highest age-standardized mortality rates due to LOC and OPC, while the high SDI strata exhibited age-standardized incidence rates decreasing for LOC and increasing for OPC. Globally in 2019, smoking had the greatest contribution to risk-attributable OPC deaths for both sexes (55.8% [95% UI, 49.2%‐62.0%] of all OPC deaths in male individuals and 17.4% [95% UI, 13.8%‐21.2%] of all OPC deaths in female individuals). Smoking and alcohol both contributed to substantial LOC deaths globally among male individuals (42.3% [95% UI, 35.2%‐48.6%] and 40.2% [95% UI, 33.3%‐46.8%] of all risk-attributable cancer deaths, respectively), while chewing tobacco contributed to the

Background: Adolescence is a transitional phase characterized by multiple physiological and psychosocial factors that make glycemic control more difficult, and often results in hyperglycemia and/or hypoglycemia-related emergencies, and increases the risk of chronic complications. Insulin analogs were introduced with the aim of overcoming such difficulties. Objective: To study the role of long acting insulin analog (insulin glargine) in glycemic control of adolescents with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes who suffer from frequent hypoglycemic attacks and marked glucose variability, and to compare its effectiveness and cost versus intermediate acting insulin (NPH) in a country with limited resources like Egypt. Subject and method: A non-randomized open label treat to target trial that included twenty-nine adolescents (10–18 years), with T1DM. They were on MDI regimen. All had unsatisfactory glycemic control with frequent hypoglycemia and/or recurrent glucose excursions. All were shifted from twice daily NPH to single bedtime injection of insulin glargine (Lantus), and followed up for a minimum period of 6 months. Results: Switching to insulin glargine was associated with a statistically significant reduction in attacks of hypoglycemia and DKA (p

Decreasing the COVID spread of infection among patients at physical isolation hospitals during the coronavirus pandemic was the main aim of all governments in the world. It was required to increase isolation places in the hospital's rules to prevent the spread of infection. To deal with influxes of infected COVID-19 patients' quick solutions must be explored. The presented paper studies converting natural rooms in hospitals into isolation sections and constructing new isolation cabinets using prefabricated components as alternative and quick solutions. Artificial Intelligence (AI) helps in the selection and making of a decision on which type of solution will be used. A Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLPNN) model is a type of artificial intelligence technique used to design and implement on time, cost, available facilities, area, and spaces as input parameters. The MLPNN result decided to select a prefabricated approach since it saves 43% of the time while the cost was the same for the two approaches. Forty-five hospitals have implemented a prefabricated solution which gave excellent results in a short period of time at reduced costs based on found facilities and spaces. Prefabricated solutions provide a shorter time and lower cost by 43% and 78% in average values respectively as compared to retrofitting existing natural ventilation rooms.

- Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disease, with increased risk of fractures. Currently available osteoporosis treatments reduce the risk of vertebral fractures, mainly dependent on trabecular bone, whereas the effect on nonvertebral fractures, mainly dependent on cortical bone, is less pronounced. WNT signaling is a crucial regulator of bone homeostasis, and the activity of WNTs is inhibited by NOTUM, a secreted WNT lipase. We previously demonstrated that conditional inactivation of NOTUM in all osteoblast lineage cells increases the cortical but not the trabecular bone mass. The aim of the present study was to determine if NOTUM increasing cortical bone is derived from osteoblast precursors/early osteoblasts or from osteocytes/late osteoblasts. First, we demonstrated Notum mRNA expression in Dmp1-expressing osteocytes and late osteoblasts in cortical bone using in situ hybridization. We then developed a mouse model with inactivation of NOTUM in Dmp1-expressing osteocytes and late osteoblasts (Dmp1-creNotumflox/flox mice). We observed that the Dmp1-creNotumflox/flox mice displayed a substantial reduction of Notum mRNA in cortical bone, resulting in increased cortical bone mass and decreased cortical porosity in femur but no change in trabecular bone volume fraction in femur or in the lumbar vertebrae L5 in Dmp1-creNotumflox/flox mice as compared with control mice. In conclusion, osteocytes and late osteoblasts are the principal source of NOTUM in cortical bone, and NOTUM derived from osteocytes/late osteoblasts reduces cortical bone mass. These findings demonstrate that inhibition of osteocyte/late osteoblast-derived NOTUM might be an interesting pharmacological target to increase cortical bone mass and reduce nonvertebral fracture risk.

- Abstract
BACKGROUND: A substantial number of patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) have axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), but early recognition of these patients is difficult for general practitioners (GPs). The Case Finding Axial Spondyloarthritis (CaFaSpA) referral strategy has shown to be able to identify patients with CLBP at risk for axSpA, but its impact on clinical daily practice is yet unknown. OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of the CaFaSpA referral strategy on pain caused by disability in primary care patients with CLBP. METHODS: Within this clustered randomized controlled trial 93 general practices were randomized to either the CaFaSpA referral model (intervention) or usual primary care (control). In each group primary care patients between 18 and 45 years with CLBP were included. The primary outcome was disability caused by CLBP, measured with the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) at baseline and four months. Secondary outcome was the frequency of new axSpA diagnosis. Descriptive analyses were performed, and a linear mixed-effects model was used. RESULTS: In total 679 CLBP patients were included of which 333 patients were allocated to the intervention group and 346 to the control group. Sixty-four percent were female and mean age was 36.2 years. The mean RMDQ score at baseline was 8.39 in the intervention group and 8.61 in the control group. At four months mean RMDQ score was 7.65 in the intervention group and 8.15 in the control group. This difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.50). Six (8%) out of the 75 finally referred patients, were diagnosed with axSpA by their rheumatologist. CONCLUSIONS: The CaFaSpA referral strategy for axSpA did not have an effect on disability after four months caused by CLBP. However, the strategy is able to detect the axSpA patient within the large CLBP population sufficiently. Trial registration number: NCT01944163, Clinicaltrials.gov.

Background: Universal access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities is an essential human right, recognised in the Sustainable Development Goals as crucial for preventing disease and improving human wellbeing. Comprehensive, high-resolution estimates are important to inform progress towards achieving this goal. We aimed to produce high-resolution geospatial estimates of access to drinking water and sanitation facilities. Methods: We used a Bayesian geostatistical model and data from 600 sources across more than 88 low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) to estimate access to drinking water and sanitation facilities on continuous continent-wide surfaces from 2000 to 2017, and aggregated results to policy-relevant administrative units. We estimated mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive subcategories of facilities for drinking water (piped water on or off premises, other improved facilities, unimproved, and surface water) and sanitation facilities (septic or sewer sanitation, other improved, unimproved, and open defecation) with use of ordinal regression. We also estimated the number of diarrhoeal deaths in children younger than 5 years attributed to unsafe facilities and estimated deaths that were averted by increased access to safe facilities in 2017, and analysed geographical inequality in access within LMICs. Findings: Across LMICs, access to both piped water and improved water overall increased between 2000 and 2017, with progress varying spatially. For piped water, the safest water facility type, access increased from 40·0% (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 39·4–40·7) to 50·3% (50·0–50·5), but was lowest in sub-Saharan Africa, where access to piped water was mostly concentrated in urban centres. Access to both sewer or septic sanitation and improved sanitation overall also increased across all LMICs during the study period. For sewer or septic sanitation, access was 46·3% (95% UI 46·1–46·5) in 2017, compared with 28·7% (28·5–29·0)

- Abstract
Background: Accurate and up-to-date assessment of demographic metrics is crucial for understanding a wide range of social, economic, and public health issues that affect populations worldwide. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 produced updated and comprehensive demographic assessments of the key indicators of fertility, mortality, migration, and population for 204 countries and territories and selected subnational locations from 1950 to 2019. Methods: 8078 country-years of vital registration and sample registration data, 938 surveys, 349 censuses, and 238 other sources were identified and used to estimate age-specific fertility. Spatiotemporal Gaussian process regression (ST-GPR) was used to generate age-specific fertility rates for 5-year age groups between ages 15 and 49 years. With extensions to age groups 10–14 and 50–54 years, the total fertility rate (TFR) was then aggregated using the estimated age-specific fertility between ages 10 and 54 years. 7417 sources were used for under-5 mortality estimation and 7355 for adult mortality. ST-GPR was used to synthesise data sources after correction for known biases. Adult mortality was measured as the probability of death between ages 15 and 60 years based on vital registration, sample registration, and sibling histories, and was also estimated using ST-GPR. HIV-free life tables were then estimated using estimates of under-5 and adult mortality rates using a relational model life table system created for GBD, which closely tracks observed age-specific mortality rates from complete vital registration when available. Independent estimates of HIV-specific mortality generated by an epidemiological analysis of HIV prevalence surveys and antenatal clinic serosurveillance and other sources were incorporated into the estimates in countries with large epidemics. Annual and single-year age estimates of net migration and population for each country and territory were generated us

- Abstract
Background: Oral rehydration solution (ORS) is a form of oral rehydration therapy (ORT) for diarrhoea that has the potential to drastically reduce child mortality; yet, according to UNICEF estimates, less than half of children younger than 5 years with diarrhoea in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) received ORS in 2016. A variety of recommended home fluids (RHF) exist as alternative forms of ORT; however, it is unclear whether RHF prevent child mortality. Previous studies have shown considerable variation between countries in ORS and RHF use, but subnational variation is unknown. This study aims to produce high-resolution geospatial estimates of relative and absolute coverage of ORS, RHF, and ORT (use of either ORS or RHF) in LMICs. Methods: We used a Bayesian geostatistical model including 15 spatial covariates and data from 385 household surveys across 94 LMICs to estimate annual proportions of children younger than 5 years of age with diarrhoea who received ORS or RHF (or both) on continuous continent-wide surfaces in 2000–17, and aggregated results to policy-relevant administrative units. Additionally, we analysed geographical inequality in coverage across administrative units and estimated the number of diarrhoeal deaths averted by increased coverage over the study period. Uncertainty in the mean coverage estimates was calculated by taking 250 draws from the posterior joint distribution of the model and creating uncertainty intervals (UIs) with the 2·5th and 97·5th percentiles of those 250 draws. Findings: While ORS use among children with diarrhoea increased in some countries from 2000 to 2017, coverage remained below 50% in the majority (62·6%; 12 417 of 19 823) of second administrative-level units and an estimated 6 519 000 children (95% UI 5 254 000–7 733 000) with diarrhoea were not treated with any form of ORT in 2017. Increases in ORS use corresponded with declines in RHF in many locations, resulting in relatively constant overall O

- Abstract
Previous research has shown that fibroblast growth factor 2 protein (FGF2) can act as an anxiolytic and anti-depressive agent in rodents. Levels of hippocampal FGF2 and FGF2 receptors are decreased in post-mortem brains of individuals with mood disorders. No changes in FGF2 were noted in the post-mortem brains of individuals with mood disorders that were successfully treated with anti-depressant medication prior to death. Mutations in the FGF2 gene in humans have been shown to predict non-responsiveness to the therapeutic effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). These findings suggest that FGF2 may potentially be a target of and/or required for the therapeutic effects of antidepressant medications. To test this, we employed a rodent model of depressive behaviour, chronic variable stress (CVS) in conjunction with antidepressant treatment (fluoxetine) in wild-type (WT) and FGF2 knockout mice (FGF2KO) and examined depressive and anxiety behavio

It is now clear that the presence of obesity substantially increases the risk of related co-morbidities such as insulin resistance, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension and others. The objective of this study was to measure adiponectin, insulin hormones, and homocysteine concentrations in obese Egyptian women before and after diet therapy that consisted of a hypo -caloric regimen supplemented with a formula rich in dietary fiber, folate and betaine. This study investigated serum adiponectin, insulin, homocysteine, lipid profiles, haemoglobin and homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) value in twenty eight volunteer obese women, whose mean age was 47.86±2.18 years and body mass index (BMI) was 34.10± 0.95 kg/m 2 . The studied period was 8 weeks divided into two phases, 1 and 2 of 4 weeks each. In the first phase, the women consumed a hypo- caloric diet (900 -1000 Kcal/day) plus the supplement made from highly extracted wheat (82%) comp osited with ground peanuts at a 50:50 ratio, prepared as cookies of; 20 g each. Two cookies were consumed at breakfast and one at dinner, to replace the bread carbohydrate content. In the second phase , the same subjects consumed only the hypo- caloric diet. Results showed that fasting serum glucose, insulin, homocysteine concentrations and HOMA values were reduced significantly (P

Resume Le sarcome d’Ewing se presente comme une lesion hyperfixante sur la scintigraphie osseuse en raison de l’augmentation de la vascularisation tumorale et la neoformation osseuse. Objectif Nous rapportons et analysons un cas exceptionnel de sarcome d’Ewing apparaissant comme une lesion hypofixante ou froide. Cas clinique Un garcon de 15 ans a ete explore pour douleur de la cuisse. La RX du femur a montre une reaction periostee mediodiaphysaire du femur gauche. La TDM et l’IRM ont evoque une osteite chronique de l’extremite inferieure du femur gauche. La scintigraphie osseuse a montre une discrete hyperfixation heterogene en regard de la lesion. La biopsie n’a pas ete concluante. Trois mois plus tard, une seconde biopsie a conclu au sarcome d’Ewing. La scintigraphie osseuse a montre une expansion de la lesion sous forme d’une large zone hypofixante ou froide entouree par une fine zone hyperfixante et pas de lesion secondaire par ailleurs. Le patient a subi une chimiotherapie puis une amputation du membre. Trois mois plus tard, une scintigraphie osseuse faite devant des douleurs lombaires a montre des metastases osseuses diffuses. Conclusion Le sarcome d’Ewing apparait generalement comme une lesion hyperfixante intense sur la scintigraphie osseuse. Neanmoins, une lesion hypofixante, froide, peut etre vue et elle correspond alors a une forme agressive de la tumeur avec une croissance tres rapide et une reaction osseuse minime.

We investigated the effects of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rGM-CSF) administered by the subcutaneous route, first alone and then alternating with azidothymidine (AZT), in leukopenic patients with severe human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Ten patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or related disorders, five of whom could not tolerate conventional doses of AZT, were administered rGM-CSF subcutaneously for 12 days. They then were administered an alternating regimen using AZT for 1 week, followed by 5 days of subcutaneous rGM-CSF and 2 days without any medication. During the initial 12 days of GM-CSF administration, there was an increase in the mean white blood cell (WBC) value. In addition, rGM-CSF stimulated circulating monocytes as evidenced by an increase in superoxide anion production and expression of surface HLA-DR antigen. However, at the same time rGM-CSF increased the serum HIV p24 antigen in each of the six evaluable patients from 189 x/divided by 2.02 pg/mL (geometric mean x/divided by SEM) at entry to 375 x/divided by 2.11 pg/mL (P less than .05). During the subsequent period of alternating AZT and rGM-CSF treatment, serum HIV p24 antigen fell below the day 14 value in most patients, particularly after the weeks of AZT administration. The mean T4 cell value increased in patients who had not previously received AZT, but generally did not change in those who had prior AZT exposure. Hematologic toxicity appeared to be somewhat reduced compared with continuous full-dose AZT therapy, and two patients with previous AZT hematologic toxicity tolerated this alternating regimen for 25 weeks. Additional regimens simultaneously combining these two agents are worth exploring.

In the present study, there were two groups of diabetic patients. The first group was newly diagnosed diabetic patients of less than one year duration of disease. They were 40 patients. The second group was diabetic patients with more than one year duration of disease. They were 30 patients. The control group was 30 normal healthy children. Evidence of virus infection was detected by tissue culture isolation, neutralization test, RT-PCR, IgM, and IgG specific antibodies for coxsackie B viruses. There was significant increase in percent of tissue culture isolation of EV in group I more than group II while the percent in the two groups were significantly increased than the control group. Identification of the type of EV by neutralization test revealed that most of the type cases were Coxsackie B4 virus and one case was Coxsackie B6 virus (the most important diabetogenic strain). Viral RNA detection by PCR was done and revealed that most of cases in group I diabetic patients were positive for enterovirus while one case in group II of diabetic patients was positive. As regards Coxsackie virus B IgM antibodies positivity, there was increase in the percent in group I than group II, as it is a marker of acute infection. As regards Coxsackie virus B IgG antibodies positivity, there was no significant difference between group I and group II of diabetic patients, as it is a marker of past infection and it persists for years after the first episode.

The indirect MAP 1B ELISA based on the recombinant MAP 1B fragment of the immunodominant MAP I protein of Ehrlichia ruminantium is considered to be the most sensitive and specific assay for the serodiagnosis of heartwater. In this study, we evaluated its reliability in detecting exposure to E. ruminantium in field populations of domestic ruminants in Zimbabwe. Cattle and goat herds in endemically stable areas with high infection pressure and an expected close to 100% prevalence of E. ruminantium exposure were sampled. Bovine sera (858) and caprine sera (706) collected at seven locations representative of the two main production systems (communal lands and large scale commercial farms) in the two main agroecological zones of Zimbabwe (highveld and lowveld) were analysed. The prevalence of MAP 1B-specific antibodies in goats was similar and high, ranging from 67 to 100%, at all except one site (43%). Age-specific differences in goats (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 years) were not observed. In contrast, MAP 1B seroprevalence in cattle was significantly lower (P0.001), ranging from 46 to 61% in the lowveld communal area and from 24 to 33% in the remaining areas (P0.001). Age-specific differences in seroprevalence (1, 2, 3, 4, 5-7 + years) were similarly not evident in cattle (P0.15). Hence, the indirect MAP 1B ELISA may be an unreliable indicator of past exposure to heartwater in field-infected cattle in Zimbabwe. Although the reasons for this low response in field cattle are not fully understood, this study illustrates the need for field validation of the performance of new diagnostic tests prior to their use for epidemiological purposes.

In adults with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, long-term monotherapy with zidovudine selects for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains with substantially reduced in-vitro susceptibility to the drug. We have assessed the relation between in-vitro resistance to zidovudine and clinical outcome in children, in whom disease progression is more rapid than in adults. We studied 23 children with symptoms of HIV-1 disease during extended monotherapy with zidovudine. An in-vitro assay was used to determine the concentration of zidovudine required to inhibit by 50% the replication of viral isolates (IC50) obtained after 9 to 39 months of treatment. Viral stocks of high enough titre to yield reproducible results were obtained from 19 of the children. During the following 6 months of therapy, 9 children were stable, 7 deteriorated, and 3 died. There was a highly significant relation between decreased zidovudine susceptibility and poor clinical outcome (p less than 0.001) but no relation between IC50 and age at start of therapy or length of time on treatment. Age-adjusted CD4 lymphocyte counts were lower at the start of treatment (p = 0.02) and at the time of sampling (p = 0.01) in children whose viral isolates had an increased zidovudine IC50. Initial serum p24 antigen levels were not predictive of subsequent emergence of resistant virus, but at the time of sampling for viral sensitivity higher p24 antigen levels were associated with raised IC50 (p = 0.004). The findings suggest that most children who become unresponsive to monotherapy with zidovudine, as judged by clinical criteria, will have changes in in-vitro sensitivity to the drug. In these children, an alternative antiretroviral therapy should be considered.

Abdulmajeed, M. (Maha)
- Abstract
The advantages of social media platforms as interactive information sources raise the importance of examining how they are used by political digital opinion leaders to influence public perceptions. Twitter, especially, played a major role in Egypt’s January 25 revolution facilitating news dissemination, public discussions and debates. Analyzing the communicative strategies of two Egyptian political influencers –Ammar Ali Hassan and Ezzedine Fishere– ten years after Egypt’s political change, and the role they play in public discourse through their Twitter accounts, this research offers an overview of the current role played by Egyptian digital political influencers in influencing public opinion. Focusing on the content and discourse of their tweets for two months, October and November 2019, the digital political influencers were selected based on the number of followers divided by the amount of interactivity on their tweets, such as retweets and favorites. The unit of analysis is the tweet that received the largest amount of interactivity. Results showed that both influencers had a unidirectional opinion strategy. While Hassan’s tweets, @ammaralihassan, seemed purposeless, not yielding any clear and valuable content to the reader, Fishere, @FishereEzzedine, was more outspoken and clearer in his communicative strategy, using evidence in defending human rights in Egypt and the Arab World. The analysis indicated more fact-based tweets by Fishere, who seems to play a more significant role in his communication network, despite minimal interaction.

- Abstract
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was dehydrochlorinated in alkali solution (Sodium Hydroxide NaOH) and then grafted with acrylamide (Am) by free-radical polymerization and using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator under inert atmosphere. The investigations involved examining the degree of dehydrochlorination on PVC by using different concentration from NaOH in the solution (1, 3 and 5 molarity) and determine the optimum dehydrochlorination and grafting efficiency of acrylamide on pure PVC and different molarity dehydrochlorinated PVC. The dehydrochlorinated polyvinyl chloride (DHPVC) and grafted copolymer (PVC-graft-Acrylamide) was characterized by FTIR, Raman spectrometer, EDX analysis. The results shown that, the highest loss of chlorine by using the 3 M ratio of NaOH and the best grafting was in the use of DHPVC 3M.

- Abstract
This work describes the study of the chemical composition and bioactivity of the essential oils (EOs) of the different organs (leaves, flowers, stems and roots) from Eruca vesicaria. According to the GC and GC/MS analysis, all the EOs were dominated by erucin (4-methylthiobutyl isothiocyanate) with a percentage ranging from 17.9 % (leaves) to 98.5 % (roots). The isolated EOs were evaluated for their antioxidant (DPPH, ABTS and β-carotene/linoleic acid), antibacterial and inhibitory property against α-amylase and α-glucosidase. Most EOs exhibited an interesting α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibitory potential. The roots essential oil was found to be the most active with IC

- Abstract
In adults with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, long-term monotherapy with zidovudine selects for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains with substantially reduced in-vitro susceptibility to the drug. We have assessed the relation between in-vitro resistance to zidovudine and clinical outcome in children, in whom disease progression is more rapid than in adults. We studied 23 children with symptoms of HIV-1 disease during extended monotherapy with zidovudine. An in-vitro assay was used to determine the concentration of zidovudine required to inhibit by 50% the replication of viral isolates (IC50) obtained after 9 to 39 months of treatment. Viral stocks of high enough titre to yield reproducible results were obtained from 19 of the children. During the following 6 months of therapy, 9 children were stable, 7 deteriorated, and 3 died. There was a highly significant relation between decreased zidovudine susceptibility and poor clinical outcome (p less than 0.001) but no relation between IC50 and age at start of therapy or length of time on treatment. Age-adjusted CD4 lymphocyte counts were lower at the start of treatment (p = 0.02) and at the time of sampling (p = 0.01) in children whose viral isolates had an increased zidovudine IC50. Initial serum p24 antigen levels were not predictive of subsequent emergence of resistant virus, but at the time of sampling for viral sensitivity higher p24 antigen levels were associated with raised IC50 (p = 0.004). The findings suggest that most children who become unresponsive to monotherapy with zidovudine, as judged by clinical criteria, will have changes in in-vitro sensitivity to the drug. In these children, an alternative antiretroviral therapy should be considered.

- Abstract
We investigated the effects of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rGM-CSF) administered by the subcutaneous route, first alone and then alternating with azidothymidine (AZT), in leukopenic patients with severe human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Ten patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or related disorders, five of whom could not tolerate conventional doses of AZT, were administered rGM-CSF subcutaneously for 12 days. They then were administered an alternating regimen using AZT for 1 week, followed by 5 days of subcutaneous rGM-CSF and 2 days without any medication. During the initial 12 days of GM-CSF administration, there was an increase in the mean white blood cell (WBC) value. In addition, rGM-CSF stimulated circulating monocytes as evidenced by an increase in superoxide anion production and expression of surface HLA-DR antigen. However, at the same time rGM-CSF increased the serum HIV p24 antigen in each of the six evaluable patients from 189 x/divided by 2.02 pg/mL (geometric mean x/divided by SEM) at entry to 375 x/divided by 2.11 pg/mL (P less than .05). During the subsequent period of alternating AZT and rGM-CSF treatment, serum HIV p24 antigen fell below the day 14 value in most patients, particularly after the weeks of AZT administration. The mean T4 cell value increased in patients who had not previously received AZT, but generally did not change in those who had prior AZT exposure. Hematologic toxicity appeared to be somewhat reduced compared with continuous full-dose AZT therapy, and two patients with previous AZT hematologic toxicity tolerated this alternating regimen for 25 weeks. Additional regimens simultaneously combining these two agents are worth exploring.

- Abstract
Purpose: The combination of zidovudine and acyclovir has shown in vitro antiretroviral activity and led to short-term improvement in patients with symptomatic human immunodeficiency disease (HIV) disease. We performed a phase I study of zidovudine (500 mg/day) plus acyclovir (2 or 4 g/day) in asymptomatic HIV-seropositive men to investigate pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerance, and immunologic effects of the combination., Subjects and Methods: Fifty HIV-seropositive homosexual or bisexual men from the San Francisco City Clinic Cohort Study were recruited for the study; of these, 20 met the eligibility criteria. Treatment with zidovudine and acyclovir was open label. Pharmacokinetic, virologic, immunologic, and clinical data were collected periodically over a 24-week period., Results: Pharmacokinetic analysis showed no drug interaction. The combination was generally well tolerated, and hematologic parameters remained stable through 24 weeks. There were no significant changes in total lymphocytes, T4 lymphocytes, overall skin test reactivity, or ability to culture virus from peripheral blood., Conclusion: This combination of agents is safe in this population for at least six months. Conclusions about long-term tolerance and efficacy await the results of larger trials with longer follow-up.

- Abstract
On the basis of observation that acyclovir potentiates the in-vitro antiviral activity of 3-azido-2',3'-dideoxythymidine (also known as azidothymidine or zidovudine) against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), we administered a regimen of azidothymidine and acyclovir to eight patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or AIDS-related complex. An oral regimen of 100 mg of azidothymidine and 800 mg of acyclovir every 4 hours was in general well tolerated, with the principal toxicity being megaloblastic erythroid changes. The pharmacokinetics of the two drugs were independent of each other. Six patients received the drug combination for at least 10 weeks; all had increased numbers of T4+ lymphocytes (P = 0.028), and two of three assessable patients had reversal of anergy. Two patients tested positive for serum HIV p24 antigen at entry, but became negative with treatment. Data for this small group suggest that this drug combination can be tolerated in patients with severe HIV infections; this study can be used as a basis for larger studies of this drug combination.
