A clear message from the Committee about whether we want to see placebo-controlled trials for these new class of NSAIDs. If I can ask some other people to Dr. Moreland? I would take a little regarding the placebo. Somnolence and asthenia are frequent, but subside as treatment progresses. Dry mouth is encountered infrequently. Hypotension may occur, especially in elderly patients. A raised ESR may occasionally be encountered. Agranulocytosis is a rare complication. Photosensitivity and allergic skin reactions have occasionally been reported. Nozinan DS #67397 v 3.0.

Normal mammary gland development and retinal apoptosis 88, 89 ; , indicating a specific and important role for cyclin D1 in normal mammary gland development. The D cyclins are found associated with several different intracellular proteins. The three D type cyclins share conserved domains D1-3, 91 , and form physical complexes with pRB 80, 92, 93 ; . However, cyclin D1 overexpression is selectively associated with prostate and breast tumorigenesis. Unlike the mechanisms of transformation for several other oncogenes in which mutant proteins are responsible, the cyclin D1 protein and coding sequence from tumors examined to date are normal 94 ; , suggesting it is the overexpression of cyclin D1 per se that is linked to the formation of tumors. Overwhelming evidence suggests it is the overexpression of cyclin D1 rather than D2 or D3 which is important in breast tumorigenesis. The main region of structural divergence between cyclin D1, D2 and D3 lies in the carboxylterminus, though the function of the cyclin D1 carboxylterminus remains to be determined. Together these findings suggest that overexpression of cyclin D1 can promote tumor formation either by collaborating in cellular transformation with known transforming factors or by antagonizing the action of tumor suppressor genes. 3.6. Cyclin D1 in prostate cancer Cyclin D1 is widely expressed in normal tissues including the normal prostate. In a recent analysis, cyclin D1 mRNA levels were increased in six prostate cancer cell lines PCCL ; examined and 25% of prostate cancer samples examined 95 ; . The frequency of cyclin D1 overexpression in human prostate cancer samples demonstrated was 30% in one study 96 ; but lower in another 97 ; . Overexpression of cyclin D1 increases cell growth and tumorigenicity in LNCaP cells 68 ; . Several lines of evidence are consistent with a model in which abnormalities previously identified in prostate cancer, may contribute to cellular proliferation through the induction of cyclin D1 abundance. Abnormalities that have been identified in prostate cancer include overexpression of ErbB-2, loss of PTEN, increased -catenin levels and mutations of the AR. LNCaP cells overexpressing cyclin D1 develop tumors faster than controls and do not regress with castration 68 ; . Overexpression of components of the cell cycle machinery may therefore contribute to androgenindependent growth and androgen ablation therapy resistance 68 ; . The cyclins may function to link androgens and their proliferative effects on the prostatic epithelium. In castrated rats exposed to androgens, cyclins D1, D2, D3 and E are induced and correlate with an increase in cellular proliferation. Cyclin D1 mRNA and protein peaked early while cyclin D3 and cyclin E mRNA and protein peaked later. Although cyclin D2 mRNA was induced, there was no change in protein level. Cdk6 was induced early followed by the induction of Cdk2. Cdk4 mRNA level was constant over the treatment period. The cyclin and Cdk expressions were consistent with their role in the cell cycle. The quantity and type of fatty acids ingested vary with the dietary source Table 2 ; . Vegetables are rich in saturated fatty acids and derivatives of the n-6 lipid, linoleic acid e.g., safflower oil, 76%; sunflower oil, 68%; corn oil, 54%; soybean oil, 54% ; . The only fatty acid of the n-3 series present in vegetable oils is alpha-linolenic acid i.e., flax, 50-55%, soybean, 7%; canola, 10% ; . Fatty acids of the n-3 series EPA, DHA ; are present in cold-water fish, shellfish, and fish oils e.g., menhaden, cod liver, herring ; . Beef and dairy products contain SFAs and some linoleic acid. Most nutritional formulas are based on n-6 lipids such as soy, corn, beef, and safflower oils. Recently a number of nutritional formulas have been marketed that contain higher concentrations of n-3 lipids.

Preclinical studies show the angiotensin II receptor blocker ARB ; Micadris temisartan ; has a beneficial effect on metabolic parameters, including plasma glucose, insulin resistance and lipid abnormalities, in addition to its proven effect on high blood pressure BP ; due to its partial activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor PPAR ; -gamma. PPAR-gamma is a hormone receptor known to have an important role in regulating carbohydrate and lipid metabolism by increasing insulin sensitivity. High BP, lipid abnormalities, insulin resistance and obesity are key components of metabolic syndrome, a common precursor of cardiovascular disease and Type 2 diabetes. The Micarris molecule is structurally similar to the PPAR-gamma activator pioglitazone, which has been approved for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes and plendil.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate PFOS ; , a persistent and bioaccumulative acid, is ubiquitously found in the environment, and has been detected in blood samples of both wildlife and humans. However, very little is known about the effects of PFOS on the central nervous system. We investigated the effects of central administration of PFOS on food intake in mice. Perfluorooctane sulfonate 0.03, 0.1, 0.3 mg kg ; was administered intracerebroventricularly into fasted male mice n 7 in each group ; of the ddy strain. Before feeding experiments, mice were deprived of food for 24 hours with free access to water. Food intake was measured at 20 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours after administration. Intracerebroventricular administration of PFOS significantly decreased food intake in a dose-related manner compared with the artificial cerebrospinal fluid treated control. A significant decrease was observed 20 minutes after administration and continued for 24 hours. These findings indicate that PFOS has an anorexigenic activity in the brain.

Expected exchange rate: 112 US, 135 1Euro Full year net sales and incomes at all levels are expected to increase compared to FY2004. The outline of the full-year business forecasts is reported below. Net sales Net sales are expected to total 885.0 billion, an increase of 22.9 billion compared to FY2004, as a result of continued growth in sales of main products and contribution of new products. Overseas sales are expected to come to 400.5 billion accounting for 45.3% of consolidated net sales. Sales by geographical segments Japan Main products such as Mocardis and Lipitor are expected to continue to grow. However, total sales in Japan are expected to decrease 15.6 billion to 514.0 billion, due to the extra shipment at the end of FY2004 about 11.9 billion ; , product transfer about 8.0 billion ; , changes in accounting method for process fee, and de facto withdrawal from home care business. Zepharma Inc. established October 1, 2004 was newly consolidated since this fiscal year. Therefore, sales of OTC drugs in 2H of FY2004 by Zepharma Inc. 12.6 billion ; was not included in consolidated net sales in FY2004 because equity method accounting was applied for Zepharma Inc. for the relevant period. Overseas In North America, Prograf and Adenoscan are expected to continue to grow and new products VESIcare and Mycamine are expected to contribute to sales increase. As a result, while Protopic is expected to decline significantly, sales in North America are expected to total 151.5 billion, up 21.7 billion from FY2004. In Europe, sales are also expected to increase 14.0 billion to 200.5 billion due to the growth of Prograf and Omnic Omnic OCAS and contribution of Vesicare. Operating income, Ordinary income and Net income Operating income are expected to total 205.0 billion, increase of 12.7 billion. In addition to the increase in net sales, changes in product mix and cost reduction efforts. Medications continued. Medications frequently prescribed to people with kidney disease a. Blood pressure lowering medications Controlling high blood pressure helps to slow the rate of decline of kidney function. There are many different types of medications available and adequate control of raised blood pressure frequently requires more than one medication. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors ACE inhibitors ; These drugs are particularly useful as they both control blood pressure and protect kidney function from further deterioration. They are also commonly used in the treatment of heart failure. ACE inhibitors are well-tolerated medications. Common examples include Coversyl perindopril ; , Accupril quinapril ; , Renitec enalapril ; , Capoten captopril ; , Odrik trandolapril ; , Monopril fosinopril ; , Zestril lisinopril ; and Tritace ramipril ; . They can cause foetal abnormalities birth defects ; if taken by women during pregnancy. Angiotensin II receptor antagonists AIIRAs ; These are a relatively new class with similar effects to ACE inhibitors, though less is known about them at this stage. They are at least as effective as ACE inhibitors. They are usually taken once per day. Common examples include Cozaar losartan ; , Avapro irbesartan ; , Atacand candesartan ; and Micardis telmisartan ; . Beta-adrenergic antagonists -blockers ; -blockers have been available for many years and are of proven efficacy particularly in people with heart disease. They are usually taken once or twice per day. They must be used with caution in people with asthma or poor circulation. Oxprenolol is commonly used to control blood pressure in pregnancy. Common examples include Betaloc metoprolol ; , Brevibloc esmolol ; , Corbeton oxprenolol ; , Dilatrend carvedilol ; , Tenormin atenolol ; and Visken pindolol ; . Calcium channel antagonists calcium channel blockers ; These medications are very effective in controlling blood pressure. They are also effective in improving the blood supply to the heart, hence their use in people with angina. They are usually taken once per day. They are well tolerated, but can cause swelling around the ankles in some people. Common examples include Adalat Oros nifedipine ; , Plendil ER felodipine ; and Norvasc amlodipine and zestril.

This angiotensin II receptor antagonist for essential hypertension treatment is soon expected to secure a leading position among our products. The continuing, satisfactory development of tamsulosin, marketed as alna, josir, pradif and urulosin in Europe and as flomax in the USA and Canada, is our best-selling product and has made urology our third leading indication. In 2003, tamsulosin sales rose by 16 %. Developed for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia, tamsulosin is marketed in alliance with Yamanouchi. In the USA it is co-promoted with Abbott.

Fixture in monographs on mycotoxins see, for example, Mirocha and Christensen [179] and Betina [15] ; . Nevertheless, the word toxin is almost certainly a misnomer because zearalenone, while biologically potent, is hardly toxic; rather, it sufficiently resembles 17 -estradiol, the principal hormone produced by the human ovary, to allow it to bind to estrogen receptors in mammalian target cells 147 ; Zearalenone is better classified as a nonsteroidal estrogen or mycoestrogen. Sometimes it is called a phytoestrogen. For the structure-activity relationships of zearalenone and its analogues, see Hurd 124 ; and Shier 233 ; . The zearalenones are biosynthesized through a polyketide pathway by Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium equiseti, and Fusarium crookwellense. All these species are regular contaminants of cereal crops worldwide 97 ; . An association between moldy grain consumption and hyperestrogenism in swine has been observed since the 1920s; modern work shows that dietary concentrations of zearalenone as low as 1.0 ppm may lead to hyperestrogenic syndromes in pigs; higher concentrations can lead to disrupted conception, abortion, and other problems 148 ; . Reproductive problems have also been observed in cattle and sheep 73 ; . The reduced form of zearalenone, zearalenol, has increased estrogenic activity. A synthetic commercial formulation called zeranol Ralgro ; has been marketed successfully for use as an anabolic agent for both sheep and cattle 53, 119 ; . In 1989, zeranol was banned by the European Union, but it is still used in other parts of the world 97 ; . Zearalenone has also been used to treat postmenopausal symptoms in women 264 ; , and both zearelanol and zearalenone have been patented as oral contraceptives 115 ; . It has been claimed that the high frequency of early menarche in Puerto Rico might be due to zearalenone and related compounds in the human diet 225 however, studies by the Food and Drug Administration do not support this hypothesis 147 ; . Recently, endocrine hormone ; disrupters have received a lot of public attention and are widely believed to reduce male fertility in human and wildlife populations 106 ; but it is not clear how much the zearalenones contribute to the total environmental load of xenoestrogens 233 ; . Sometimes, hormone disrupters are labeled environmental toxicants, further muddying the distinction between a compound that can cause death toxin ; and a compound that has other pharmacological activities. In summary, the zearalenone family of metabolites illustrates some of the limitations of scientific language. The biological potency of these compounds is high, but the actual toxicity is low. The 50% lethal dose in female rats is greater than 10, 000 mg kg; in female guinea pigs it is 5, 000 mg kg 115 ; , while as little as one g kg may create a detectable uterogenic response in female swine. Thus, mycoestrogen is a more appropriate rubric than mycotoxin. Moreover, like the ergot alkaloids, in certain formulations some analogues of these macrolides can be called drugs. Extensive reviews of Canadian and Scandinavian epidemiological data have concluded that the risk to human populations is minimal. The recommended safe human intake of zearalenone is estimated to be 0.05 g kg of body weight per day 147 ; . Zearalenone levels in foodstuffs are not yet regulated anywhere 97 ; . Nevertheless, because of its genuine bi and trandate.

Increased A42 production has been linked to the development of Alzheimer disease. We now identify a number of compounds that raise A42. Among the more potent A42-raising agents identified are fenofibrate, an antilipidemic agent, and celecoxib, a COX-2selective NSAID. Many COX-2selective NSAIDs tested raised A42, including multiple COX-2selective derivatives of two A42-lowering NSAIDs. Compounds devoid of COX activity and the endogenous isoprenoids FPP and GGPP also raised A42. These compounds seem to target the -secretase complex, increasing -secretasecatalyzed production of A42 in vitro. Shortterm in vivo studies show that two A42-raising compounds increase A42 levels in the brains of mice. The elevations in A42 by these compounds are comparable to the increases in A42 induced by Alzheimer diseasecausing mutations in the genes encoding amyloid protein precursor and presenilins, raising the possibility that exogenous compounds or naturally occurring isoprenoids might increase A42 production in humans. Amyloid peptide A ; accumulation within the brain is a hallmark of Alzheimer disease pathology. Accumulation of aggregated A is hypothesized to initiate a pathological cascade that results in cognitive decline1. A species with different amino and carboxyl termini are generated from the amyloid protein precursor APP ; through sequential proteolysis by the - and -secretases2. A 40amino acid form of A A40 ; is the major secreted product of these cleavages, whereas the minor 42amino acid form of A A42 ; that contains two additional residues at its carboxyl terminus has been suggested to be the initiating molecule in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease3. In vitro, A42 aggregates much more readily than A40, and these aggregates are neurotoxic. A42 is also deposited earlier and more consistently than A40 in the brain parenchyma of individuals affected by Alzheimer disease. Mutations in the genes encoding presenilin 1 PS1, encoded by PSEN1 ; , presenilin 2 PS2, encoded by PSEN2 ; and APP APP ; , which cause Alzheimer disease, perturb A peptide levels or in rare cases directly alter the A sequence in a way that increases the propensity of the mutant A to form fibrils. The vast majority of these Alzheimer diseaselinked mutations selectively increase the relative levels of A42 peptides reviewed in ref. 1 ; . Small shifts in A42 production have a tremendous impact on the development of Alzheimer disease. In humans, Alzheimer disease causing mutations elevate plasma A42 levels by 30100%4. Even mutations showing small increases in A42 levels are associated with the onset of dementia in the fourth or fifth decade of life. In transgenic mice, these same mutations produce small increases in A42 levels and markedly accelerate A deposition5. More recent studies in transgenic mice and Drosophila selectively expressing A40 and A42 in the secretory pathway show that A42 but not A40 is sufficient to drive A deposition, and, at least in Drosophila, neurodegeneration6, 7. In previous studies, we identified select nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs NSAIDs ; as prototypic agents capable of lowering A42 selectively in vitro and in vivo8, 9. This effect is independent of cyclooxygenase COX ; and other identified targets of these drugs10, 11. A42-lowering NSAIDs are active in in vitro -secretase assays; suggesting that these compounds target the -secretase complex that consists of either PS1 or PS2 and three essential accessory proteins, nicastrin, APH-1 and PEN-2 refs. 8, 10, 12 ; . Characterized A42-lowering agents do not seem to function as classic protease inhibitors, and may be better characterized as -secretase cleavage modulators. As A42 is reduced, A38, and sometimes additional shorter A peptides, are increased8, 9. In most cases, the net amount of total A produced is not substantially altered. In other cases, total A levels are decreased, suggesting a potential for both allosteric modulation and noncompetitive inhibition8, 10, 12, 13. A recent study provided additional support for an allosteric mechanism of action by showing that A42lowering NSAIDs affected the proximity of APP and PS1 and altered PS1 conformation14. In contrast to pan -secretase inhibitors, A42-lowering compounds do not alter the cleavage of two other -secretase substrates, Notch and ErbB4 refs. 9, 10.

And proliferation. Some cellular functions are also mediated by the free GAG chains. GAGs share a common architecture, being linear polymers of repeating disaccharide units, including an amino sugar and at least one negatively charged group sulphate or carboxylate ; . This basic framework is also shared by the polyanionic glycans pentosan polysulphate.
Boehringer Ingelheim has rationalised its businesses during the past decade, such that its operations now comprise a dominant ethical drugs business, complemented by smaller businesses animal health, industrial biopharmaceuticals and OTC medicines ; , which, to some extent, offer synergies with the core pharmaceutical area. The pharmaceutical business has achieved steady sales growth over recent years. This principally reflects the continuing success of its respiratory franchise dominated by the COPD treatments Atrovent and Combivent ; , but also aided by the recent launch of a range of new products, including the BPH treatment Flomax now BI's best selling product ; , the preferential Cox-2 inhibitor Mobic, the anti-HIV product Viramune and the anti-hypertensive Micardis. Boehringer Ingelheim continues to eschew the consolidatory activity that has taken place across the industry. Instead, the company utilises co-marketing partners to provide the necessary marketing critical mass to compete on a global basis. Hence, Abbott was recruited to provide co-marketing support in the US for Flomax, Micardis and Mobic, GlaxoSmithKline comarkets Micardis in Europe, whilst Daiichi co-markets Mobic in Japan. Most recently, Pfizer was recruited as worldwide co-marketing partner for the COPD treatment Spiriva, a relationship that should help to expand this currently underdeveloped market sector. To minimise competition with the major players, BI also focuses on developing new products for relatively niche therapy areas. Key issues for Boehringer Ingelheim include: Ability to manage successfully its diverse range of co-marketing alliances worldwide. Until the recent global alliance with Pfizer, BI had generally chosen specific marketing partners within the three major regions, the USA, Europe and Japan. To make a success of its co-marketing alliance with Pfizer for Spiriva. The success of this alliance will be measured by its ability to expand the COPD market whilst minimising cannibalisation of BI's existing Atrovent Combivent sales. Ability to attract early stage licensing and technologies to help develop its current pipeline of R&D candidates. To continue reducing its dependence on the domestic German market, by building a broader international business. To drive sales in the OTC sector, particularly in Japan where its increased stake has given Boehringer Ingelheim greater operational control over SSP and vasotec. I: "Right, and do you have people who you go in to see specifically about constipation?" N2: "No, not as a rule. But, if it's a problem I'll . it tends to be, well it can be happened with a lot of things [mmm]. With the elderly people it's part of our assessment when we see anybody for the first time, part of activities of daily living, and it's one of the questions I would be asking. So when I see people for the first time I would be asking, you know, what's their normal bowel habit . `cause what's normal to them isn't normal to me [mmm], and are they having any problems that way, and we start and go through the other things of daily living which can affect constipation, which are, er, reduced fluid intake and dietary fibre, which tends . which I would say are the main causes of constipation in the elderly. [Right, OK.] E-em, and we have to go through those first and I usually find that they're not, they don't have many fruit or vegetables, things you would normally associate with fibre, and they nearly always have a reduced fluid intake. They're not taking the required amount of fluids so they, that's often the case. [Right.] So that would be my first line, the first diagnosis that there was a problem there and the treatment, I would first of all go onto that unless it was, em, quite an acute problem and they were in discomfort, and then I would have to take it one fur . one step further, and examine them abdominally and rectally, if, if they give me their consent [uh-uh], which is what we have to do now [right], digital rectal examination, you have to have the patient's consent. [Right, OK.] And I would perform that and, er, make a, a diagnosis on that and [right] then take it further." I: "Right, so usually the people that you see you're seeing for another reason, and constipation is part of the management, like overall management of them?" N2: "It is with, with the elderly. Also, em, th . , em, multiple medication, you know [yeah], can cause, a lot of people, em, are having painkillers and anything with the codeine in causes constipation. And they're unaware of that, so sometimes I can go for something unrelated but that problem is there. That's often not the one [right] thing that you go for first." Practice 6.

In the United States, the prevalence of OAB in women 16.9% ; is slightly higher than that in men 16.0% ; , but women are more likely than men to have urinary incontinence. In fact, more than half of women who have OAB also meet the criteria for OAB with incontinence.13 "It is important to understand and quantify how severe the problem is to the individual woman, " began Dr. Karram, noting that female patients are usually classified as premenopausal or postmenopausal in OAB treatment. "I go to great lengths from day one to give my patients everything I have in my armamentarium. The pharmacologic agent is very important, but so are education, behavioral modification, and pelvic-floor rehabilitation." Agreeing with Dr. Karram's opening statement about the importance of understanding the individual woman's OAB profile, Ms. Newman emphasized, "With women, initial treatment depends on the most bothersome presenting symptom, whether that is urgency, frequency, or incontinence." "In women, especially in premenopausal women, practitioners must always appreciate the importance of pelvic floor muscle strength, pelvic floor muscle control, and the appropriate contraction of the pelvic floor muscles, " advised Dr. Karram. "Most young women have the ability to contract the pelvic floor; if they do not, getting them into physical therapy and teaching them to contract their pelvic floor muscles at the appropriate time will be tremendously useful." Summarizing his overall treatment strategy, Dr. Karram recommended, "When treating the female patient, subjectively assess her pelvic-floor.
Tuberculosis Research Centre 1997 ; . A controlled clinical trial of oral short-course regimens in the treatment of sputum-positive pulmonary tuberculosis. International Journal of Tuberculosis and Lung Disease, 1: 509517. In this randomized study 1203 patients were assigned to three possible regimens: EMB dose was 600 mg daily or 1200 mg twice weekly. Patients' mean body weight was 40 kg, indicating an EMB dose of 15 mg kg. Thus, for a body weight of 50 kg, EMB dose was approximately 12 mg kg daily or 24 mg kg twice weekly; for a body weight of 45 kg, EMB dose was 13.3 mg kg daily or 27 mg kg twice weekly.

Most sources said they have no preference among the seven approved ARBs, and many use them all: AstraZeneca's Atacand candesartan ; Biovail's Teveten eprosartan ; Boehringer Ingelheim Abbott's Micardis telmisartan ; . Bristol-Myers Squibb's Avapro irbesartan ; Merck's Cozaar losartan ; Novartis's Diovan valsartan ; Sankyo Forest Laboratories's Benicar olmesartan ; Family doctors said that once they find an ARB that works well, there is a reluctance to change. A Nevada doctor said, "I use Cozaar because that's the hospital's preference." A Minnesota doctor said, "I use Diovan because it works." Another Midwest doctor said, "I prescribe whatever the cardiologists prefer." The exception was a Kansas doctor who said he currently is using Diovan and Benicar equally, but predicted Benicar use would increase: "Benicar is just getting going. If it works, then use will go up at the expense of Diovan.

Dr. Demain asked for comment about which are on PDL currently, as well as the Native, VA, Elmendorf formularies. Dr. Sater said Diovan and Cozaar are available, with their associated HCTZ products. Micardis is at ANMC. Dr. Brodsky said there are fewer prescriptions than before and providers can always write "medically necessary". DR. HUNT MOVED THAT THESE BE DECLARED FULLY EFFICACIOUS. DR. DEMAIN SECONDED. Dr. Miller asked if the committee could include losartan and valsartan, since those seem to be the ones before. Therefore, it would be a class effect but would include those two. Dr. Brodksy said this could be done, but it might defeat the purpose. There may be a lower cost, but providers may be switching patients from one medication to another if they do not appear on the list. Dr. Maciejewski said it might shake out that the agents with the least research data will be favored. It may be logical to say that the agent that has the best utilization here should be continued Diovan ; , plus we have a choice based on the bids. Mr. Campana said that with saying Diovan plus, there will be at least two agents on there. Dr. Hunt asked what would happen if Diovan were the lowest, to which Mr. Campana answered that if the motion states Diovan plus, there would have to be one other agent. Dr. Brodsky stated that it would not necessarily be that way. It is possible to end up with just Diovan. Dr. Briggs asked if the committee could declare a class effect, and request to have two agents, but not specify which two. Dr. Brodsky said this was possible. Dr. Demain asked if this was a drug that could be substituted easily. Dr. Brodsky said the use is diminishing, but it is still a fair amount of claims. Dr. Maciejewski said they can be changed, but for some peculiar reason, some agents with some individual patients do not work as well or they are not as tolerated as well. Dr. Brodsky added that this is true with many classes of drugs. Dr. Hunt suggested he could withdraw his motion in favor of a strategy of "Diovan, plus". Dr. Briggs said that she agrees this is the most studied ARB, but there is still a lot to learn about the class. Dr. Brodsky stated that this may be on the list because it was preferred, or because it was good marketing. Dr. Briggs stated she would not like to base a decision on that. Dr. Hunt said his original motion that it is class effect is unchanged. MOTION CARRIED WITH 14 IN FAVOR AND 4 OPPOSED. S6 These included terminal disinfection of the environment in isolation rooms and cohort areas by application of 1: 1000 sodium hypochlorite in place of detergent ECCMID '06, abstract P1333 ; . We evaluated the effect of replacing sodium hypochlorite with a standard detergent. Methods: From January 1997 to May 2006, monthly percentage, nonduplicate S. aureus clinical cases caused by MRSA were collated. In February 2005 hypochlorite cleaning solution as replaced by a standard detergent. Other infection control measures remained unchanged. Dynamic regression analysis with linear transfer functions and interrupted time-series analyses were used to estimate the effect to the intervention. Results: Previously, MRSA rates wee successfully reduced due to environmental screening p 0.03 ; , use of hypochlorite for environmental disinfection p 0.002 ; , use of alcohol based hand disinfection p 0.03 ; and patient admission screening p 0.01 ; . Stopping the hypochlorite disinfection was associated with a sudden increase in clinical cases of MRSA from 10 to 25% over a 6 month period p 0.03 ; , with levels approaching those seen prior to the start of the infection control programme in 2001 see figure ; . Conclusions: Stopping hypochlorite environmental disinfection was strongly associated with an increase in clinical MRSA cases. This work adds significantly to the meagre published evidence that environmental contamination is important in the spread of MRSA!
