Abstract
Cachexia not only has a dramatically harmful impact on a patient's life, but also a poor response to therapeutic agents. The purpose of the present review is to provide updated information concerning the pharmacokinetic aspects of drugs used to treat cardiopulmonary cachexia in patients with no signs of hepatic or renal pathology. A systematic search of PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register of Control Trials, Science Direct, and Clinical Trials Registry (ClinicalTrials.gov), encompassing the period between 2000 and 2017, was conducted in accordance to PRISMA guidelines. Seven studies were identified. Collectively, these studies included a total of 196 individuals (19 healthy subjects and 177 diseased patients). This data review found no differences in bisoprolol and prothionamide absorption in cachectic patients with chronic heart failure and tuberculosis, but higher absorption of oflaxocin in the same set of patients was observed. The distribution of bisoprolol, prothionmaide, ceftazidime, and cefipirome was reduced in cardiopulmonary cachexia patients. Hepatic clearance of rifampin was equivalent in cachectic and non-cachectic patients that had normal hepatic function. Similarly in cardiopulmonary cachexia patients, renal clearance of ceftazidime was reduced by 19% but no significant differences in bisorpolol and prothionamide clearance were observed. In the case of cefipirome, both renal clearance and creatinine clearance were higher in cachectic patients with cystic fibrosis. From the limited evidence available, the main drug pharmacokinetic changes seen in cardiopulmonary cachexia patients were a reduction in the volume of distribution and impairment of clearance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Altered intestinal function is prevalent in patients with heart failure (HF), but its role in adverse outcomes is unclear. OBJECTIVES This study investigated the potential pathophysiological contributions of intestinal microbiota in HF. METHODS We examined the relationship between fasting plasma trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) and all-cause mortality over a 5-year follow-up in 720 patients with stable HF. RESULTS The median TMAO level was 5.0 μM, which was higher than in subjects without HF (3.5 μM; p < 0.001). There was modest but significant correlation between TMAO concentrations and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels (r = 0.23; p < 0.001). Higher plasma TMAO levels were associated with a 3.4-fold increased mortality risk. Following adjustments for traditional risk factors and BNP levels, elevated TMAO levels remained predictive of 5-year mortality risk (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.2; 95% CI: 1.42 to 3.43; p < 0.001), as well as following the addition of estimated glomerular filtration rate to the model (HR: 1.75; 95% CI: 1.07 to 2.86; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS High TMAO levels were observed in patients with HF, and elevated TMAO levels portended higher long-term mortality risk independent of traditional risk factors and cardiorenal indexes.

Abstract
Congestive heart failure is a disease state distinguished by the regular presence of both renal and hepatic abnormalities in drug handling. One such abnormality involves flaws in the process of drug absorption. In most instances, congestive heart failure-related abnormalities in drug absorption are of inconsequential significance. However, this is not the case with loop diuretics. Loop diuretic action ordinarily tracks the rate and extent of absorption if a sufficient amount of diuretic has been given to exceed the threshold for diuretic effect. In congestive heart failure, both the rate and absolute amount of loop diuretic absorbed can be reduced as a function of the heart failure state itself. In this setting, drug dissolution characteristics can assume added significance. Furosemide is the loop diuretic with the widest intra- and interpatient variability of absorption. Alternatively, the loop diuretic torsemide is rapidly and fairly completely absorbed independent of the heart failure state. This pattern of absorption establishes it as the preferred loop diuretic in the otherwise diuretic-resistant heart failure patient. However, the exact role of torsemide in the outpatient management of congestive heart failure remains to be determined.

Abstract
Normothermic, nonpulsatile cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) impairs systemic and splanchnic oxygen transport and increases gastrointestinal permeability. It is an important therapeutic goal to avoid splanchnic dysoxia during CPB. Small-dose prostacyclin therapy improves splanchnic oxygen transport and microcirculation in septic patients. In this study, we sought to determine if during cardiac surgery, the prostacyclin analog epoprostenol improves the balance of systemic and splanchnic oxygen transport. Eighteen patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement were randomized to receive either epoprostenol (3 ng x kg(-1) x min(-1)) or placebo during, and for 1 hour after, surgery. Systemic and splanchnic oxygen delivery, consumption, and extraction and arterial, mixed venous, and hepato-venous lactate concentrations were measured before, during, and after CPB. Gastrointestinal permeability was measured 1 day before and 1 day after surgery using the triple sugar permeability test. During CPB, the epoprostenol group had decreased systemic oxygen consumption and splanchnic oxygen extraction (P = 0.024). These effects were not present 1 hour after the end of epoprostenol infusion. The study was not adequately powered to determine whether epoprostenol altered the trend towards increased lactate metabolism and increased postoperative gastrointestinal permeability, nor could we demonstrate any differences between groups in clinically relevant end-points. In conclusion, these findings suggest that during normothermic CPB, small-dose epoprostenol therapy may reduce systemic oxygen consumption and splanchnic oxygen extraction.

Abstract
The aim of the current review is to summarise the present status of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling and its applications in drug research, and thus serve as a reference point to people interested in the methodology. The review is structured into three major sections. The first discusses the existing methodologies and techniques of PBPK model development. The second describes some of the most interesting PBPK model implementations published. The final section is devoted to a discussion of the current limitations and the possible future developments of the PBPK modelling approach. The current review is focused on papers dealing with the pharmacokinetics and/or toxicokinetics of medicinal compounds; references discussing PBPK models of environmental compounds are mentioned only if they represent considerable methodological developments or reveal interesting interpretations and/or applications.The major conclusion of the review is that, despite its significant potential, PBPK modelling has not seen the development and implementation it deserves, especially in the drug discovery, research and development processes. The main reason for this is that the successful development and implementation of a PBPK model is seen to require the investment of significant experience, effort, time and resources. Yet, a substantial body of PBPK-related research has been accumulated that can facilitate the PBPK modelling and implementation process. What is probably lagging behind is the expertise component, where the demand for appropriately qualified staff far outreaches availability.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PB-PK) model capable of describing and predicting terbinafine concentrations in plasma and tissues in rats and humans. A PB-PK model consisting of 12 tissue and 2 blood compartments was developed using concentration-time data for tissues from rats (n = 33) after intravenous bolus administration of terbinafine (6 mg/kg of body weight). It was assumed that all tissues except skin and testis tissues were well-stirred compartments with perfusion rate limitations. The uptake of terbinafine into skin and testis tissues was described by a PB-PK model which incorporates a membrane permeability rate limitation. The concentration-time data for terbinafine in human plasma and tissues were predicted by use of a scaled-up PB-PK model, which took oral absorption into consideration. The predictions obtained from the global PB-PK model for the concentration-time profile of terbinafine in human plasma and tissues were in close agreement with the observed concentration data for rats. The scaled-up PB-PK model provided an excellent prediction of published terbinafine concentration-time data obtained after the administration of single and multiple oral doses in humans. The estimated volume of distribution at steady state (V(ss)) obtained from the PB-PK model agreed with the reported value of 11 liters/kg. The apparent volume of distribution of terbinafine in skin and adipose tissues accounted for 41 and 52%, respectively, of the V(ss) for humans, indicating that uptake into and redistribution from these tissues dominate the pharmacokinetic profile of terbinafine. The PB-PK model developed in this study was capable of accurately predicting the plasma and tissue terbinafine concentrations in both rats and humans and provides insight into the physiological factors that determine terbinafine disposition.

Abstract
The prediction error in the Bayesian analysis program for digoxin was evaluated in Japanese patients, and factors influencing the accuracy were investigated. Serum concentrations of digoxin were monitored two times and were compared with the predicted values obtained by using the Bayesian analysis program. The prediction error at the first time was 43.1%. Although this estimation error was reasonably restored at the second time of monitoring, the prediction error remained at 26.6%. These data suggested that unknown factors not included in the program affected the serum concentration of digoxin. Retrospective research of the digoxin serum concentrations in the patients suggested the coadministration of the drugs, which were the P-glycoprotein modulators, as well as the unexpected alteration of the serum creatinine, were the important factors influencing the prediction of the drug serum concentrations. We next examined the inhibitory effect of quinidine, verapamil and spironolactone on the transcellular transport of digoxin by using human P-glycoprotein overexpressing LLC-GA5-COL150 cells. Quinidine, verapamil and spironolactone could inhibit the transcellular transport of digoxin by 50%. In addition, the reduction of the renal clearance by 50%, which could possibly be caused by this inhibition, led to the increase of 36% in the steady state through concentrations of digoxin in the physiological pharmacokinetic model. In conclusion, the prediction of long-term serum concentration-time profiles of digoxin, based on the Bayesian analysis, will be disturbed by the coadministration of the P-glycoprotein modulators and the unexpected alteration of the serum creatinine.

Abstract
Drug-drug, drug-formulation and drug-meal interactions are of clinical concern for orally administered drugs that possess a narrow therapeutic index. This review presents the current status of information regarding interactions which may influence the gastrointestinal (GI) absorption of orally administered drugs. Absorption interactions have been classified on the basis of rate-limiting processes. These processes are put in the context of drug and formulation physicochemical properties and oral input influences on variable GI physiology. Interaction categorisation makes use of a biopharmaceutical classification system based on drug aqueous solubility and membrane permeability and their contributions towards absorption variability. Overlaying this classification it is important to be aware of the effect that the magnitudes of drug dosage and volume of fluid administration can have on interactions involving a solubility rate limits. GI regional differences in membrane permeability are fundamental to the rational development of extended release dosage forms as well as to predicting interaction effects on absorption from immediate release dosage forms. The effect of meals on the regional-dependent intestinal elimination of drugs and their involvement in drug absorption interactions is also discussed. Although the clinical significance of such interactions is certainly dependent on the narrowness of the drug therapeutic index, clinical aspects of absorption delays and therapeutic failures resulting from various interactions are also important.
