Effects of smoking and drinking on excretion of hippuric acid among toluene-exposed workers

Summary In order to investigate possible effects of smoking and drinking on the metabolism of toluence in occupational settings, 206 toluene-exposed men (mean age: 31.4 years) in shoemaking, painting, or surface-coating workshops together with 246 nonexposed control men (36.8 years) were studied for the time-weighted average intensities of exposure to toluene, hippuric acid concentration in shift-end urine samples, and the two social habits of smoking and drinking. The mean daily consumptions of cigarettes and ethanol were about 20 pieces and 10 g among smokers and drinkers, respectively. The geometric mean toluene concentration among the exposed subjects was about 20 ppm, with a maximum of 521 ppm. Regression analysis after classification of the subjects by smoking and drinking clearly demonstrated that the two social habits, when combined, markedly reduce the hippuric acid level in the urine of workers exposed to was a significant association between smoking and drinking habits, which hindered separate evaluation of the effects of the two habits on toluene metabolism. Comparison of the present results with the findings reported in the literature, however, suggested that the observed effects may be attributable to smoking rather than to drinking habits.     

Interaction between bovine collagen and glycolic acid peeling: A proposal of a new protocol

For the past 10 years the alfa-hydroxyacids and the bovine collagen injection have been used for peeling and the correction of multiple skin diseases. Until now, such progressive achievement has occurred in separate parallels just like the indications that have been held distinct. However, the studies carried out in order to clarify the mechanical action of the two substances have shown a common and fundamental denominator: the stimulation of synthesis of the new collagen in the patient's skin. On the basis of these results and the existence of common clinical indications of the use of glycolic acid and collagen, the authors have worked out a protocol involving a combined and contemporary application in progressive steps. They developed the rationales of such protocol and analyzed the results of its application on a number of carefully selected patients for a clinical comparison and on a sample of rats for a histological comparison. They have concluded that the contemporary use of glycolic acid and bovine collagen is a simple and safe method whose synergy action leads to more intense and long-lasting effects than the ones observed in the isolated application of the two substances. The authors have also obtained interesting and significant histological results.     

Evaluation of the safety of a non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid (NASHA – Q-Medical, Sweden) in European countries: a retrospective study from 1997 to 2001

BACKGROUND: In Europe, several filler devices are currently on the market for use in aesthetic dermatology and some of them cause severe, permanent, adverse reactions. Since 1996 a non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid (NASHA) from Q-Medical, Sweden, has been introduced and is becoming a leading product in aesthetic dermatology. Hyaluronic acid has no species specificity and skin testing is not recommended before treatment. OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to evaluate the incidence of adverse reactions from 1997 to 2001 and the safety of NASHA after injections into the skin for aesthetic reasons. METHOD: Surveys were sent to physicians in European countries that agreed to participate. This is a retrospective study. A total of 12 344 syringes were sold by the Q-Medical to these physicians and we evaluated the total number of patients treated to 35% of this number (4320). We separated immediate hypersensitivity reactions from delayed reactions and analysed infectious and other types of reactions. RESULTS: From 1997 until 2001, 34 cases of hypersensitivity were reported: 16 cases of immediate hypersensitivity and 18 cases of delayed. The global risk of sensitivity is 0.8%. Since 2000, the amount of protein in the raw product has decreased and the incidence of hypersensitivity reactions is around 0.6%. As 50% of these reactions are immediate and resolved within less than 3 weeks, the risk of strong but transient, delayed reaction is around 0.3%. Four cases of abscess were reported. They were all sterile. No bacterial infection was found. Herpetic recurrence is possible after lip augmentation according to the technique of injection. No systemic reactions were reported. CONCLUSION: NASHA is a very useful and safe filler product. Skin testing does not seem to be necessary.

Treatment of essential tremor with the barbiturate T2000 (1,3-dimethoxymethyl-5,5-diphenyl-barbituric acid).

The effect of the barbiturate T2000 (1,3-dimethoxymethyl-5,5-diphenyl-barbituric acid; DMMDPB) on essential tremor, given in twice daily doses of 400 and 300 mg, was assessed in two brief, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, double-blinded, single-center trials in 12 and 22 patients, respectively. These trials represent the first clinical use of T2000 for a specific indication. The primary endpoint was the change in the mean scores of the treated and control groups based on the Fahn-Tolosa-Marin tremor scale. In the first study of 12 patients treated with 400 mg or placebo twice daily for 14 days, the mean change from baseline at day 14 was 19.3 (P < 0.0001) in the treated group and 9.0 (P = 0.0121) in the control group. Using a two-factor mixed ANOVA model to evaluate within group and between group changes, the effect of T2000 was significantly different from that of the placebo group (P = 0.03). In the second study of 22 patients treated with 300 mg of T2000 or placebo twice daily for 20 days, statistically significant changes were seen in treated patients compared to baseline, but the ANOVA model did not demonstrate a significant treatment effect of T2000 compared to placebo. When the treated groups from each study are compared, the 800-mg daily group is significantly different from the 600-mg daily group (P = 0.02). Some treated patients in each study, but no placebo patients, experienced marked improvement. These results support further evaluation of T2000 in the treatment of essential tremor.

Glutathione conjugation of chlorobenzylidene malononitriles in vitro and the biotransformation to mercapturic acids in rats

The glutathione conjugation of 2-chloro-, 3-chloro-, 4-chloro- and 2,6-dichlorobenzylidene malononitrile (chloroBMNs) was investigated in vitro. In incubation mixtures containing rat liver cytosol (9000 g), the decrease in the initial amount of glutathione due to the various chloroBMNs ranged from 40 to 60% and occurred both enzymatically and spontaneously at physiological conditions (37°C, pH7.4). 2,6-DichloroBMN, however, depleted glutathione largely spontaneously (38±3%). The steric hindrance of the two chlorosubstituents probably plays an important role during the glutathione-S-transferase catalyzed reaction.The hydrolysis of the chloroBMNs to the corresponding chlorobenzaldehydes and malononitrile was studied in a mixture of buffer pH 7.4 and ethanol. The rate of hydrolysis of 2,6-dichloroBMN was slower than those of the related chloroBMNs. This means that 2,6-dichloroBMN will be the most stable compound in the presence of water.Only IP administration of 2-chloroBMN (CS) to adult male Wistar rats gave enhancement of urinary thioether excretion. A thioether could be isolated and was identified as the N-acetyl-S-[2-chlorobenzyl]-L-cysteine. The quantity of this benzylmercapturic acid in the urine of rats amounted to 4.4% dose (0.07 mmol/kg, n=12).After IP administration of 2-chloro- and 3-chlorobenzaldehyde to rats benzylmercapturic acid excretion in the urine was found to be 7.6 and 1.1% of the dose, respectively. Administration of the related 4-chloro- and 2,6-dichlorobenzaldehyde, however, resulted in _no urinary mercapturic acid excretion.It is very likely that in rats the initial biotransformation of chloroBMNs is mainly hydrolysis to corresponding chlorobenzaldehydes, leading in the case of 3-chloro-, 4-chloro- and 2,6-dichloroBMN to no mercapturic acid excretion in the urine.Nevertheless, 2,6-dichloroBMN will be the most reactive compound with proteins and therefore the best haptene in comparison with the related chloroBMNs.This work was financially supported by a grant from the Dutch Foundation for Medical Research FUNGO, grant no. 13-28-57
