- This study was undertaken to compare the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus (Tac) with cyclosporin microemulsion (CyA) in pediatric renal recipients. A 6-month, randomized, prospective, open, parallel group study with an open extension phase was conducted in 18 centers from nine European countries. In total, 196 pediatric patients (<18 yr) were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either Tac (n = 103) or CyA (n = 93) administered concomitantly with azathioprine and corticosteroids. The primary endpoint was incidence and time to first acute rejection (intent-to-treat). Baseline characteristics were comparable between treatment groups. Excluding deceased patients (n = 9) and patients lost to follow-up (n = 31, mostly transferred to adult care), 95% of 2-yr data (159 of 167 possible patients), 87% of 3-yr data (142 of 163) and 73% of 4-yr data (114 of 156) were retrieved. At 1 yr Tac therapy resulted in a significantly lower incidence of acute rejection (36.9%) compared with CyA (59.1%, p = 0.003). The incidence of corticosteroid-resistant rejection was also significantly lower with Tac (7.8% vs. 25.8%, p = 0.001). At 4 yr, patient survival was similar (94% vs. 92%, p = 0.86) but graft survival significantly favored Tac (86% vs. 69%; p = 0.025, log-rank test), respectively. At 1 yr, the mean glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (Schwartz formula, ml/min/1.73 m(2)) was 64.9 +/- 20.7 (n = 84) vs. 57.8 +/- 21.9 (n = 77, p = 0.0355), at 2 yr 64.9 +/- 19.8 (n = 71) vs. 51.7 +/- 20.3 (n = 66, p = 0.0002), at 3 yr 66.7 +/- 26.4 (n = 81) vs. 53.0 +/- 23.3 (n = 55, p = 0.0022), and at 4 yr 71.5 +/- 22.9 (n = 51) vs. 53.0 +/- 21.6 (n = 44, p = 0.0001) for Tac vs. CyA, respectively. Cholesterol remained significantly higher with CyA throughout follow-up. Three patients in each arm developed post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease. Incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus was not different. Tac was significantly more effective than CyA in preventing acute rejection in pediatric renal recipients. Renal function and graft survival were also superior with Tac. Glomerular filtration rate appears to be an useful surrogate marker for long-term outcome.

- Ten allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) recipients with hepatic venoocclusive disease (VOD) were treated with recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA). Two of them subsequently underwent orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). One additional patient with VOD underwent OLT without prior rt-PA treatment. Treatment with rt-PA was started a median of 14 (1--35) days after BMT. The dose of rt-PA given to adults was 10-50 mg i.v. and that given to children was 3-10 mg i.v. Treatment was given for 2-4 days. In three patients, the dose was administered over a longer period or it was repeated. Four patients responded to rt-PA therapy and six did not. Eight patients suffered from hemorrhages, one intracranial and three gastrointestinal. Four patients required blood transfusions. Four had minor subcutaneous hemorrhages and/or epistaxis. One patient died of intracranial hemorrhage and five from hepatic and/or multiorgan failure. Two patients treated with rt-PA, 10 mg/day for 4 days, are alive; one is alive and well 3 months after BMT, the other has relapsed after 7 months. The three patients undergoing OLT died of chronic hepatic failure, cerebral edema, and pneumonia. Our experience suggests that rt-PA should not be administered in high doses and that the treatment should not be given over a longer period, because of the risk of severe hemorrhages.

- Background The use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to treat unprotected left main coronary artery disease has expanded rapidly in the past decade. We aimed to describe nationwide trends in clinical practice and outcomes after PCI for left main coronary artery disease. Methods and Results Patients (n=4085) enrolled in the SCAAR (Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry) as undergoing PCI for left main coronary artery disease from 2005 to 2017 were included. A count regression model was used to analyze time-related differences in procedural characteristics. The 3-year major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event rate defined as death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and repeat revascularization was calculated with the Kaplan-Meier estimator and Cox proportional hazard model. The number of annual PCI procedures grew from 121 in 2005 to 589 in 2017 (389%). The increase was greater for men (479%) and individuals with diabetes (500%). Periprocedural complications occurred in 7.9%, decreasing from 10% to 6% during the study period. A major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event occurred in 35.7% of patients, falling from 45.6% to 23.9% (hazard ratio, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.41-0.78; P=0.001). Radial artery access rose from 21.5% to 74.2% and intracoronary diagnostic procedures from 14.0% to 53.3%. Use of bare-metal stents and first-generation drug-eluting stents fell from 19.0% and 71.9%, respectively, to 0, with use of new-generation drug-eluting stents increasing to 95.2%. Conclusions Recent changes in clinical practice relating to PCI for left main coronary artery disease are characterized by a 4-fold rise in procedures conducted, increased use of evidence-based adjunctive treatment strategies, intracoronary diagnostics, newer stents, and more favorable outcomes.
