Tadalafil use is associated with a lower incidence of Type 2 diabetes in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia: A population‐based cohort study

Atsushi Takayama, Satomi Yoshida, Koji Kawakami

Journal of Internal Medicine > 296 > 5 > 422 - 434

Background Tadalafil, commonly prescribed for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), may benefit patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) for glycemic markers and complications. However, the association between the long‐term use of tadalafil and the incidence of T2DM has not been investigated. Methods We emulated a target trial of tadalafil use (5 mg/day) and the risk of T2DM using a population‐based...

Exploratory assessment of treatment‐dependent random‐effects distribution using gradient functions

Takumi Imai, Shiro Tanaka, Koji Kawakami

Statistics in Medicine > 40 > 2 > 226 - 239

In analyzing repeated measurements from randomized controlled trials with mixed‐effects models, it is important to carefully examine the conventional normality assumption regarding the random‐effects distribution and its dependence on treatment allocation in order to avoid biased estimation and correctly interpret the estimated random‐effects distribution. In this article, we propose the use of a...

Association between antidepressant use during pregnancy and congenital anomalies in children: A retrospective cohort study based on Japanese claims data

Madoka Yamamoto‐Sasaki, Satomi Yoshida, Masato Takeuchi, Sachiko Tanaka‐Mizuno, more

Congenital Anomalies > 60 > 6 > 180 - 188

Certain studies previously pointed out that treating pregnant women with antidepressants may increase risks of congenital anomalies in their children. However, to date, the study results are not conclusive. Furthermore, most studies have been performed using data from Western countries; therefore, we examined this association using Japanese data. This retrospective cohort study was based on claims...

Effects of gut microbiota on in vivo metabolism and tissue accumulation of cytochrome P450 3A metabolized drug: Midazolam

Masao Togao, Koji Kawakami, Jun Otsuka, Gaku Wagai, more

Biopharmaceutics & Drug Disposition > 41 > 7 > 275 - 282

The link between drug‐metabolizing enzymes and gut microbiota is well established. In particular, hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A activities are presumed to be affected by gut microbiota. However, there is no direct evidence that the gut microbiota affects CYP3A metabolism or the clearance of clinically relevant drugs in vivo. Our purpose was to evaluate the effects of gut microbiota on in vitro...

The association between arterial pulse waveform analysis device and in‐hospital mortality in high‐risk non‐cardiac surgeries

Chikashi Takeda, Masato Takeuchi, Toshiyuki Mizota, Hiroshi Yonekura, more

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica > 64 > 7 > 928 - 935

Background Perioperative goal‐directed fluid therapy is used for haemodynamic optimization in high‐risk surgeries. Cardiac output monitoring can be performed by a specialized pressure transducer for arterial pulse waveform analysis (S‐APWA). No study has assessed whether real‐world use of S‐APWA is associated with post‐operative outcomes; therefore, using a Japanese administrative claims database,...

Utilization and efficacy of palivizumab for children with Down syndrome

Takeshi Kimura, Masato Takeuchi, Koji Kawakami

Pediatrics International > 62 > 6 > 677 - 682

Background Palivizumab is a prophylactic drug used for severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in young children with high‐risk factors, such as prematurity and congenital heart diseases. Although Japan expanded the use of palivizumab for Down syndrome (DS) in 2013 regardless of additional high‐risk factors, there is not enough evidence to support its use. We analyzed health insurance...

Estimating the cost‐effectiveness of screening for hepatitis C virus infection in Japan

Kota Nagai, Kazuki Ide, Yohei Kawasaki, Sachiko Tanaka‐Mizuno, more

Hepatology Research > 50 > 5 > 542 - 556

Aim The management of hepatitis C virus (HCV) has changed with the advent of interferon (IFN)‐free treatment and the declining prevalence of HCV infection, which may impact the cost‐effectiveness of the screening. We aimed to compare the cost‐effectiveness and clinical outcomes of three screening strategies in the Japanese general population: no screening, screening plus IFN‐based therapy, and screening...
