The mean single-dose PK profile has been previously published 19, and the PK parameters were comparable to those previously reported from the phase I study 14.
Clinicians debate the definition of antibiotic prophylaxis; for the purposes of this study the term means a single dose of antibiotics given before surgery to prevent the development of infection.
While the optimal level in critical illness is yet to be defined, applying these cut-off points means a single dose of 540,000 units cholecalciferol, used in the current study [ 1], is capable of restoring vitamin D sufficiency in critically ill patients as early as within 24 hours of administration (mean 25-hydroxyvitamin25-hydroxyvitaminng/ml) and certainly by 1 week (mean 25(OH D >20 ng/ml).
Single use, means single use.
Following a review and a focus on colorectal surgery the mean proportion receiving single dose prophylaxis exceeded the target of 95% and the mean proportion compliant with policy was 83%.
This self-regulating property means that a single dose can provide sufficient neutrophil support for different durations of neutropenia [ 7, 16].
The principal strategy used to accomplish this is mass drug administration (MDA), which for most countries means administering a single dose of two drugs (albendazole and diethyl-carbamazine or albendazole and ivermectin) to ≥80% of the entire "at risk" population annually for four to six years [ 6, 7].

Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis revealed minimal SOX2 expression in mock-treated xenografts (mean 0.2 SOX2+ nuclei per field), but clearly increased (and heterogeneous) SOX2 positive cells after a single dose of erlotinib (mean: 7.4 SOX2+ nuclei per field, N = 147 151 fields, p < 0.0001).
