Current (regular) preparation of cefaclor (CCL) require the 3-time-a-day administration. S6472 (sustained release preparation) which can be used with the twice-a-day administration in the morning and the evening is capsule and granule preparations consisting of 40% of nonenteric and 60% of enteric coated granules of CCL. Phase I clinical studies of S6472 were conducted in 12 nonfasted healthy adult male volunteers with cross over method using a single dose of 375 mg in capsule and granule forms of S6472, and 250 mg in capsule form of regular CCL as a control drug. The volunteers received the 3 preparations at 1-week interval. The summary of the results from the above studies is as follows: Grouping of the volunteers. The 12 volunteers were divided into 3 groups (each group consists of 4 volunteers) and there were no significant differences between each group regarding background factors of the volunteers. Tolerance. None of the volunteers who received the 3 preparations at 1-week interval complained of subjective abnormalities. No abnormalities which are considered to be due to S6472 and regular CCL were found in the clinical laboratory tests carried out before the administration and 1 week after the completion of the studies. Plasma level. There were no significant differences between capsule and granule forms of S6472 regarding Cmax and AUC, and it was confirmed that bioavailability of both preparations was the same. It was also confirmed that plasma levels of the 2 preparations of S6472 were maintained for longer period of time than those of regular CCL. Urinary excretion. Mean urine levels of the 2 preparations of S6472 every 2 hours after the administration were confirmed to be maintained for longer period of time than those of regular CCL. There were no significant differences between the 2 preparations of S6472 regarding urinary recovery rate. However, the significant differences between the 2 preparations of S6472 and regular CCL were observed. Urinary recovery rate of the 2 preparations of S6472 was 87 approximately 88% of that of regular CCL.
In order to see absorption and excretion of S6472 (sustained release preparations of cefaclor (CCL], 3 studies regarding, 1) influence of meals (single dose of 375 mg in capsule form), 2) dose response (single dose of 375 mg vs. 750 mg in granule form) and 3) continuous administration (twice-a-day administration of 750 mg in granule form for 8 days) were conducted in 15 healthy adult male volunteers using capsule and granule forms of S6472. The following is the summary of the results from the above studies: Tolerance. In the above 3 studies, none of the 15 volunteers complained of subjective abnormalities. In the clinical laboratory tests performed before the administration of S6472 and at the next day of the completion of the studies, the values from the laboratory tests were within normal range. Influence of meals. The average time for peak plasma level of CCL and decrease in the plasma level following the administration of S6472 were the fastest in the fasted volunteers, followed by the volunteers with light meals and usual meals. From this, it was confirmed that plasma levels of CCL were maintained for longer period of time in the non-fasted volunteers than in the fasted volunteers. In the volunteers who had light and usual meals, the peak plasma levels, AUC of the plasma levels and urinary recovery rate were almost the same. Influence by amount of meals was scarcely observed. Dose response. Mean serum levels and their AUC in the volunteers receiving 750 mg of S6472 were approximately twice as much as those in the volunteers receiving 375 mg of S6472, and dose response between the 2 doses was confirmed. Continuous administration. Mean serum levels and their AUC at the first dose and the 15th dose (final dose) were almost the same. In the continuous administration of S6472 for 8 days (15 doses), no accumulation of CCL in the body was observed.

A significant positive relationship was found between alcohol intake and blood pressure for men 40-69 years old living in urban Osaka (492 men) and in rural Akita (395 men), Japan, surveyed from 1975 to 1977. Both mean blood pressure and the prevalence of hypertension were related to alcohol intake in a graded fashion. Stepwise multiple regression also showed that both systolic and diastolic pressure were associated with alcohol intake independent of ponderosity index, serum cholesterol, triglycerides, hemoglobin, uric acid, smoking, and age. This cross-sectional study indicates a continuous--and not a threshold--relationship between alcohol and blood pressure, with the effect of even moderate consumption, e.g. 28-55 g per day (equivalent to about 2-4 U.S. drinks per day).

Thirty-five cases of fundic gland polyposis detected by roentgenographic examination, gastrofiberscopy, and endoscopic biopsy were divided into two groups. The first group consisted of 23 cases without familial adenomatosis coli and is termed the nonadenomatosis coli group; the second group contained 12 cases with familial adenomatosis coli and is termed the familial adenomatosis coli group. Incidence of fundic gland polyposis was only 0.085% (23 of 27,000 cases) in the non-adenomatosis coli group but 38.7% (12 of 31 cases) in the familial adenomatosis coli group. In both groups, fundic gland polyps were multiple, small (less than 8 mm in diameter), and located in the body and fundus of the stomach. A solitary or large polyp was occasionally observed in the non-adenomatosis coli group. Histologic examination revealed simple hyperplasia of the fundic glands and microcysts in both groups. The age range was 51.6 +/- 12.3 yr (mean +/- SD) in the non-adenomatosis coli group and 25.3 +/- 8.6 yr in the familial adenomatosis coli group. The ratio of males to females was 5:18 in the non-adenomatosis coli group, and 7:5 in the familial adenomatosis coli group. The number of fundic gland polyps was smaller in the non-adenomatosis coli group than in the familial adenomatosis coli group. Our observations suggest that this lesion frequently coexists with familial adenomatosis coli, but that it is not specific to this disease.
Forty milligrams saccharated iron oxide was given intravenously, daily, to nine iron-deficient patients with moderate to severe anemia. During the 14-42 days of treatment, levels of serum inorganic phosphorus (Pi) decreased significantly and in a stepwise manner (before vs 1 week, P less than 0.005; 1 week vs 2 weeks, P less than 0.01). Seven of the nine patients became hypophosphatemic within 2 weeks and the other two within 4 weeks. In parallel with the decline in serum Pi, the phosphate clearance increased and tubular reabsorption of phosphate decreased. Reversion to normal levels was delayed in patients treated for the longer period.
