Development of Novel Anti-influenza Thiazolides with Relatively Broad-spectrum Antiviral Potentials [Antiviral Agents]

Seasonal and pandemic influenza causes 650,000 deaths annually in the world. The emergence of drug-resistance to specific anti-influenza drugs such as oseltamivir and baloxavir marboxil highlights the urgency of novel anti-influenza chemical entity discovery. In this study, we report a series of novel thiazolides derived from an FDA-approved drug nitazoxanide with antiviral activity against influenza and a broad range of viruses. The preferred candidates 4a and 4d showed significantly enhanced anti-influenza potentials with 10-fold improvement, compared with nitazoxanide, and were effective against a variety of influenza subtypes including oseltamivir-resistant strains. Notably, the combination using of compounds 4a/4d and oseltamivir carboxylate or zanamivir displayed synergistic antiviral effect against oseltamivir-resistant strain. Mode of action analysis demonstrated that compounds 4a/4d acted at the late phase of viral infection cycle through inhibiting viral RNA transcription and replication. Further experiments showed that treatment with compounds 4a/4d significantly inhibited influenza virus infection in human lung organoids, suggesting the druggability of the novel thiazolides. In-depth transcriptome analysis revealed a series of up-regulated cellular genes that may contribute to the antiviral activities of 4a/4d. Together, our study pointed the optimization direction of nitazoxanide as anti-influenza drug, and discovered two novel-structured candidates 4a/4d with relatively broad-spectrum antiviral potential.

Trends in Pediatricians Developmental Screening: 2002-2016

BACKGROUND:

Current guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend screening children for developmental problems by using a standardized screening tool and referring at-risk patients to early intervention (EI) or subspecialists. Adoption of guidelines has been gradual, with research showing many children still not being screened and referred.

METHODS:

We analyzed American Academy of Pediatrics Periodic Survey data from 2002 (response rate = 58%; N = 562), 2009 (response rate = 57%; N = 532), and 2016 (response rate = 47%, N = 469). Surveys included items on pediatricians’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding screening and referring children for developmental problems. We used descriptive statistics and a multivariable logistic regression model to examine trends in screening and referral practices and attitudes.

RESULTS:

Pediatricians’ reported use of developmental screening tools increased from 21% in 2002 to 63% in 2016 (P < .001). In 2016, on average pediatricians reported referring 59% of their at-risk patients to EI, up from 41% in 2002 (P < .001), and pediatricians in 2016 were more likely than in 2002 to report being "very likely" to refer a patient with global developmental delay, milestone loss, language delay, sensory impairment, motor delays, and family concern to EI.

CONCLUSIONS:

Pediatricians’ reported use of a standardized developmental screening tool has tripled from 2002 to 2016, and more pediatricians are self-reporting making referrals for children with concerns in developmental screening. To sustain this progress, additional efforts are needed to enhance referral systems, improve EI programs, and provide better tracking of child outcomes.
