Id Subject Object Predicate Lexical cue
T239 0-2 Sentence denotes 6.
T240 4-10 Sentence denotes Safety
T241 11-106 Sentence denotes CQ/HCQ are basic medications for malaria with a long history of reliable safety records [3,62].
T242 107-227 Sentence denotes However, the therapeutic window of CQ is narrow, and the toxic dose is 3 times higher than the therapeutic dose [55,63].
T243 228-356 Sentence denotes The most common adverse effects of taking CQ are gastrointestinal discomforts, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and anorexia.
T244 357-428 Sentence denotes These symptoms are mild and can be controlled by reducing the dose [3].
T245 429-685 Sentence denotes However, long-term and high-dose CQ intake can cause irreversible damage to the ear, cardiovascular system, and blood system, such as neurological deafness, conduction disorder cardiomyopathy, and leukopenia, though these adverse effects are very rare [3].
T246 686-776 Sentence denotes Compared to CQ, HCQ has fewer adverse effects, which may be related to its lower toxicity.
T247 777-837 Sentence denotes In animal models, HCQ was about 40% less toxic than CQ [64].
T248 838-976 Sentence denotes Reportedly, only overdoses (average daily dose > 5.0 mg/kg) and long-time (more than 5 years) ingestion of HCQ can cause retinopathy [65].
T249 977-1154 Sentence denotes CQ/HCQ have similar pharmacokinetic characteristics, fast absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, fast excretion in liver and kidney, and a long half-life (40–50 days) [3,66].
T250 1155-1225 Sentence denotes Therefore, liver and kidney dysfunction may aggravate adverse effects.
T251 1226-1402 Sentence denotes High-dose CQ (600 mg/2 times/day for 10 day) is associated with increased QTc interval prolongation in critically ill patients with COVID-19 [49] and should not be recommended.
T252 1403-1550 Sentence denotes In the initial trial from France, of the 84 patients receiving HCQ treatment, 8 patients discontinued HCQ owing to ECG modifications within 4 days.
T253 1551-1703 Sentence denotes Among them, 7 patients had a prolonged QTc interval more than 60 ms, and one patient developed a first-degree atrioventricular block within 2 days [53].
T254 1704-1843 Sentence denotes In a randomized clinical trial from Wuhan, 2 out of 31 patients receiving HCQ treatment had minor adverse effects (headache and rash) [50].
T255 1844-1930 Sentence denotes Prolonged QT interval after taking HCQ may also develop in ICU COVID-19 patients [67].
T256 1931-2180 Sentence denotes A recent observation showed that patients who received HCQ for the treatment of pneumonia associated with COVID-19 were at high risk of QTc prolongation (19%), and concurrent use of azithromycin was associated with greater changes in QTc (21%) [68].
T257 2181-2599 Sentence denotes Another observation in COVID-19 patients admitted to ICU showed that QTc intervals increased in 93% of patients receiving HCQ with or without azithromycin, prolonged QTc was observed in 36% of patients after a duration of the treatment for 2 to 5 days, and 6 of 18 (33%) patients treated with HCQ and azithromycin and 1 of 22 (5%) of those treated with HCQ alone developed an increase in QTc of 500 ms or greater [69].
T258 2600-2797 Sentence denotes The use of CQ, CQ with a macrolide, HCQ and HCQ with a macrolide were all found to be independently associated with increased risk for ventricular arrhythmia in hospitalized COVID-19 patients [61].
T259 2798-2912 Sentence denotes Therefore, clinicians should carefully weigh risks and benefits if considering CQ/HCQ with or without a macrolide.
T260 2913-3085 Sentence denotes When CQ/HCQ are used, electrocardiogram examination should be routinely performed before taking the medicine, with close monitoring of QTc and concomitant medication usage.
T261 3086-3291 Sentence denotes CQ/HCQ should be more cautiously used in patients with existing heart disease, and the use of QT interval prolonging drugs, such as antiarrhythmic drugs, antihistamines, and moxifloxacin should be avoided.
T262 3292-3450 Sentence denotes In addition, close attention should be paid to symptoms after taking drugs and the drugs should be stopped in time if there are intolerable adverse reactions.
T263 3451-3619 Sentence denotes In addition, CQ is extremely dangerous for patients with glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency because of the possible induction of hemolytic anemia [70].
T264 3620-3808 Sentence denotes Therefore, more caution should be given for patients with G6PD deficiency when CQ is considered for the treatment and the best way should be to detect G6PD deficiency before the use of CQ.
