    Abstract: There have been few studies of angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) dose in myocardial infarction (MI) with preserved left ventricular (LV) systolic function. We evaluated the association of ARB dose with clinical outcomes after MI with preserved LV systolic function. We used MI multicenter registry. Six months after discharge, the ARB dose was indexed to the target ARB doses used in randomized clinical trials and grouped as 〉 0%–25% (n = 2333), 〉 25% of the target dose (n = 1204), and no ARB (n = 1263). The primary outcome was the composite of cardiac death or MI. Univariate analysis showed that mortality of those with any ARB dose was lower than those without ARB therapy. After multivariable adjustment, patients receiving 〉 25% of target dose had a similar risk of cardiac death or MI compared with those receiving ≤25% or no ARB [hazard ratio (HR) 1.05, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.83–1.33; HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.82–1.08, respectively]. Propensity score analysis also demonstrated that patients with 〉 25% dose had no difference in primary endpoint compared with those ≤25% dose or the no ARB group (HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.79–1.33; HR 0.86, 95% CI 0.64–1.14, respectively). The present study demonstrates that patients treated with 〉 25% of target ARB dose do not have better clinical outcomes than those treated with ≤25% of target ARB dose or those with no ARB dose in MI patients with preserved LV systolic function.

    Abstract: No studies have investigated whether the discontinuation of ethambutol (EMB) based on susceptibility to isoniazid and rifampin, as determined by the GenoType MTBDRplus assay, would be appropriate. We aimed to determine the feasibility of discontinuing EMB before the end of the intensive phase of treatment based on the results of the MTBDRplus assay in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). This prospective, multicenter noninferiority randomized trial was conducted at 12 referral centers in South Korea in drug-susceptible PTB patients who initiated the standard four-drug regimen for PTB. Based on the results of the assay, EMB was discontinued in the MTBDRplus group after confirmation that the M. tuberculosis isolate was susceptible to isoniazid and rifampin. The time point for EMB discontinuation in the guideline group was determined using the results of the phenotypic drug susceptibility test based on the South Korean national tuberculosis guidelines. The primary outcome was treatment success. Secondary outcomes included the 1-year rates of recurrence and adverse events. Of 600 randomized patients, the treatment outcome analysis was performed for 493 patients (MTBDRplus group, 244 patients; guideline group, 249 patients). Treatment success rates were 93.9% (229/244) in the MTBDRplus group and 93.6% (233/249) in the guideline group and did not differ between groups (relative risk, 1.00; 95% confidence interval, 0.95 to 1.06). The 1-year recurrence rates in the two groups (0.9% and 0.5%, respectively) and adverse drug reactions did not differ between the groups. In conclusion, the early discontinuation of EMB based on the results of the MTBDRplus assay did not affect the treatment outcomes in patients with PTB.

    Abstract: Pulmonary lesions from active tuberculosis patients are thought to contain persistent, nonreplicating bacilli that arise from hypoxic stress. Metronidazole, approved for anaerobic infections, has antituberculosis activity against anoxic bacilli in vitro and in some animal models and may target persistent, nonreplicating bacilli. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, pulmonary multidrug-resistant tuberculosis subjects were randomly assigned to receive metronidazole (500 mg thrice daily) or placebo for 8 weeks in addition to an individualized background regimen. Outcomes were measured radiologically (change on high-resolution computed tomography [HRCT]), microbiologically (time to sputum smear and culture conversion), and clinically (status 6 months after stopping therapy). Enrollment was stopped early due to excessive peripheral neuropathies in the metronidazole arm. Among 35 randomized subjects, 31 (15 metronidazole, 16 placebo) were included in the modified intent-to-treat analysis. There were no significant differences by arm in improvement of HRCT lesions from baseline to 2 or 6 months. More subjects in the metronidazole arm converted their sputum smear ( P = 0.04) and liquid culture ( P = 0.04) to negative at 1 month, but these differences were lost by 2 months. Overall, 81% showed clinical success 6 months after stopping therapy, with no differences by arm. However, 8/16 (50%) of subjects in the metronidazole group and 2/17 (12%) of those in the placebo group developed peripheral neuropathy. Subjects who received metronidazole were 4.3-fold (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1 to 17.1) more likely to develop peripheral neuropathies than subjects who received placebo. Metronidazole may have increased early sputum smear and culture conversion but was too neurotoxic to use over the longer term. Newer nitroimidazoles with both aerobic and anaerobic activity, now in clinical trials, may increase the sterilizing potency of future treatment regimens.
