Abstract:

Drug repositioning is the discovery of new indications for approved or failed drugs. This practice is commonly done within the drug discovery process in order to adjust or expand the application line of an active molecule. Nowadays, an increasing number of computational methodologies aim at predicting repositioning opportunities in an automated fashion. Some approaches rely on the direct physical interaction between molecules and protein targets (docking) and some methods consider more abstract descriptors, such as a gene expression signature, in order to characterise the potential pharmacolog

Un indicateur de description de la polymédication chronique, défini par l’usage concomitant et chronique de 5 médicaments ou plus, a été développé pour décrire la prévalence et les médicaments impliqués.

Abstract:

Drug abuse can be a serious, chronic, and relapsing health problem for both men and women. Among women, however, drug use and abuse present an array of different challenges to health and well-being. In addition, the health of women has been given less attention than the health of men. Little research has been conducted to identify and describe the invisible or hidden population of drug users, not abusers, who are not in treatment or incarcerated on drugrelated charges. The purpose of this study is to provide a descriptive and behavioral profile of adult, female, recreational drug users (i.e.,

Abstract:

Concern beliefs in medicines are patients' anxieties about the harmful effects of a specific prescribed medication. Three papers examined the importance of concern beliefs in medicine, specifically its relationship to patient outcomes such as self-reported adverse drug events (ADEs) and symptom attribution, and the factors that might drive a change in concern beliefs over time. For the first and second paper, a cross-sectional internet survey of Medicare enrollees who were English speakers, 65 years and older and enrolled in the Medicare Part D program was done.
