BACKGROUND: The disruption of the circadian clock is associated with inflammatory and immunological disorders. BMAL2, a critical circadian protein, forms a dimer with CLOCK, activating transcription. Extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP), released during sepsis, can induce macrophage endotoxin tolerance. We hypothesized that eCIRP induces BMAL2 expression and promotes macrophage endotoxin tolerance through triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1).
METHODS: C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) male mice were subjected to sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Serum levels of eCIRP 20 h post-CLP were assessed by ELISA. Peritoneal macrophages (PerM) were treated with recombinant mouse (rm) CIRP (eCIRP) at various doses for 24 h. The cells were then stimulated with LPS for 5 h. The levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the culture supernatants were assessed by ELISA. PerM were treated with eCIRP for 24 h, and the expression of PD-L1, IL-10, STAT3, TREM-1 and circadian genes such as BMAL2, CRY1, and PER2 was assessed by qPCR. Effect of TREM-1 on eCIRP-induced PerM endotoxin tolerance and PD-L1, IL-10, and STAT3 expression was determined by qPCR using PerM from TREM-1-/- mice. Circadian gene expression profiles in eCIRP-treated macrophages were determined by PCR array and confirmed by qPCR. Induction of BMAL2 activation in bone marrow-derived macrophages was performed by transfection of BMAL2 CRISPR activation plasmid. The interaction of BMAL2 in the PD-L1 promoter was determined by computational modeling and confirmed by the BIAcore assay.
RESULTS: Serum levels of eCIRP were increased in septic mice compared to sham mice. Macrophages pre-treated with eCIRP exhibited reduced TNFα and IL-6 release upon LPS challenge, indicating macrophage endotoxin tolerance. Additionally, eCIRP increased the expression of PD-L1, IL-10, and STAT3, markers of immune tolerance. Interestingly, TREM-1 deficiency reversed eCIRP-induced macrophage endotoxin tolerance and significantly decreased PD-L1, IL-10, and STAT3 expression. PCR array screening of circadian clock genes in peritoneal macrophages treated with eCIRP revealed the elevated expression of BMAL2, CRY1, and PER2. In eCIRP-treated macrophages, TREM-1 deficiency prevented the upregulation of these circadian genes. In macrophages, inducible BMAL2 expression correlated with increased PD-L1 expression. In septic human patients, blood monocytes exhibited increased expression of BMAL2 and PD-L1 in comparison to healthy subjects. Computational modeling and BIAcore assay identified a putative binding region of BMAL2 in the PD-L1 promoter, suggesting BMAL2 positively regulates PD-L1 expression in macrophages.
CONCLUSION: eCIRP upregulates BMAL2 expression via TREM-1, leading to macrophage endotoxin tolerance in sepsis. Targeting eCIRP to maintain circadian rhythm may correct endotoxin tolerance and enhance host resistance to bacterial infection.
Prehabilitation program is defined as a tailored physical exercise program to be carried out to a patient on the basis of his/her health condition, social circumstances and adherence profile. The intervention consisted of a standard 4-6 week supervised outpatient program including global endurance exercise training, or educational sessions followed by a self-management program supported by ICT during the follow-up period, or a combination of both.

PCT No. PCT/US96/17528 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 1, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 1, 1998 PCT Filed Nov. 4, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/16966 PCT Pub. Date May 15, 1997Disclosed are two processes. The first process involves treating a red blood cell-containing composition to inactivate an extracellular or intracellular virus which may be present in said red blood cell-containing composition by subjecting said red blood cell-containing composition to a virucidally effective amount of a phthalocyanine and red light, wherein the improvement involves (i) determining the action spectrum of said phthalocyanine for causing inactivation of said virus; (ii) determining the action spectrum of said phthalocyanine for causing red blood cell damage; (iii) comparing (i) and (ii), and, if (i) and (ii) are not identical then determining the wavelength at which the largest favorable difference exists between (i) and (ii); (iv) providing a red light source emitting red light only in 10 nm in either direction of the wavelength determined in (iii); and then (v) subjecting said red blood cell-containing composition to said virucidally effective amount of said phthalocyanine and said provided red light source. In a preferred embodiment, the phthalocyanine is Pc 4, which has the formula: HOSiPcOSi(CH3)2(CH2)3N(CH3)2. The second process involves transfusing red blood cells to a patient in need thereof by withdrawing red blood cells from a donor, subjecting the red blood cells to the first process and transfusing the red blood cells to said patient.
Tamoxifen (TAM) is required for gene recombination in the inducible Cre/lox system. The TAM-enriched diet is considered safe, with negligible impact on animal wellbeing. However, studies reporting the long-term effects of the TAM diet and its potential impact on experimental outcomes are scarce. We conducted a longitudinal study on mice exposed to a 4-week dietary TAM citrate supplementation. Several parameters were recorded, such as body weight, body composition, mortality, and cardiac function. The collagen1a2 (Col1a2) transgenic mouse was used to assess TAM-induced recombination in vivo in cardiac fibroblasts followed by myocardial infarction (MI). The impact of TAM on the MI outcome was also evaluated. The recombination efficiency and cytotoxic effect of the TAM active metabolite, 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen (4-OHT), were assessed in vitro. Mice exposed to a TAM diet showed body weight loss and a 10% increase in mortality (P = 0.045). The TAM diet decreased cardiac function and induced cardiac remodeling, indicated by decreased fractional shortening from 32.23% to 19.23% (P = 0.001) and left ventricular (LV) wall thinning. All measured parameters were reversed to normal when mice were returned to a normal diet. Infarcted Col1a2-CreER mice on the TAM regimen showed gene recombination in fibroblasts, but it was associated with a substantial increase in mortality post-surgery (2.5-fold) compared to the controls. In vitro, 4-OHT induced gene editing in fibroblasts; however, cell growth arrest and cytotoxicity were observed at high concentrations. In conclusion, prolonged exposure to the TAM diet can be detrimental and necessitates careful model selection and interpretation of the results.
Patients with suspected pancreatic lesions underwent 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT to distinguish benign and malignant lesions, to evaluate the resectability of lesions and to detect distant metastasis. The clinicians decided the treatment methods based on the results of 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT.
The myelin and lymphocyte protein (MAL) family is a novel gene family first identified and characterized in 2002. This family is comprised of seven members, including MAL, MAL2, plasmolipin, MALL, myeloid differentiation‑associated marker (MYADM), MYADML2 and CMTM8, which are located on different chromosomes. In addition to exhibiting extensive activity during transcytosis, the MAL family plays a vital role in the neurological, digestive, respiratory, genitourinary and other physiological systems. Furthermore, the intimate association between MAL and the pathogenesis, progression and metastasis of malignancies, attributable to several mechanisms such as DNA methylation has also been elucidated. In the present review, an overview of the structural and functional properties of the MAL family and the latest research findings regarding the relationship between several MAL members and various cancers is provided. Furthermore, the potential clinical and scientific significance of MAL is discussed and directions for future research are summarized.

The zoledronic acid infusion time must not be less than 15 minutes given over a constant infusion rate. 

The i.v. infusion should be followed by a 10 mL normal saline flush of the intravenous line. 

Zoledronic acid injection solution for infusion must not be allowed to come in contact with any calcium or other divalent cation-containing solutions, and should be administered as a single intravenous solution through a separate vented infusion line. 

If refrigerated, allow the refrigerated solution to reach room temperature before administration. After opening, the solution is stable for 24 hours at 2° to 8°C (36° to 46°F) [see How Supplied/Storage and Handling (16)].
Autogenous bone grafting is still the gold standard and most effective method for treatment of non-union and bone defects due to congenital disease and infection. Despite the development of bone engineering, none of the allogeneic bone products can match the osteoinductive, osteoconductive, and immunogenic properties of autogenous bone. The iliac crest is one of the most harvested sites other than the fibula, ribs, and ulna. An iliac crest bone graft (ICBG) can supply a larger amount of cortical and cancellous bone than grafts from other donor sites. Pelvic osteotomy is widely used for treating developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. Tricortical structural bone such as that in the ilium is needed to stabilize the pelvis after osteotomy, and the anterior and posterior iliac crest are the two most used graft donor sites. When surgery is planned in the prone position, such as that for posterior spinal fusion, surgeons generally prefer to adopt the posterior approach for ICBG procedures. In supine position surgeries such as pelvic osteotomy for DDH or Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, surgeons prefer the anterior approach for ICBG procedures. There are many studies on iliac bone growth and complications after ICBG procedures. Most of the studies demonstrated good outcomes and few complications. However, according to our literature review, none of the previous studies used the iliac bone for transplantation in pelvic osteotomy. In this study, we compared the results between an inner table harvest site and an inner-outer table harvest site for ICBG used to maintain stability in pelvic osteotomy.

Frequently recurrent herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection of the lips or perioral area, known as herpes labialis, or commonly as cold sores, can cause discomfort, pain, and embarrassment. Traditional antiviral therapies are moderately effective in suppressing these recurrences. Studies have shown that the amino acid glutamine can affect HSV-1 reactivation in vitro. Glutamine has been studied in various clinical situations and has been found to decrease morbidity in critically ill patients (reducing nosocomial infections), in patients receiving chemotherapy or undergoing bone marrow transplantation (reducing severity of stomatitis, reducing incidence of infection, shortening hospital stay), and in patients with short gut syndrome (decreasing requirement for parenteral nutrition). No significant adverse consequences of glutamine therapy have been reported in these patients. We will conduct a randomized, double-blind, control-comparison crossover trial comparing the efficacy of glutamine versus glycine (control) to suppress recurrences of herpes labialis in patients with frequent episodes (greater than or equal to 6 per year). Based on our in vitro and in vivo data, we hypothesize that oral glutamine will decrease the number of recurrences of herpes labialis during a 5-month treatment period in participants with frequently recurring herpes labialis compared with control.
Participants will receive Treatment D on Day 1 of period 1 followed by Treatment C on Day 1 of period 2. Both the treatment periods will be separated by washout period of minimum 10 days.
Accidental ingestion of a foreign body into the gastrointestinal tract is not uncommon, however the development of hepatic abscesses secondary to digestive perforation by a foreign body is rare. We report the case of pyogenic hepatic abscesses secondary to gastric perforation by a fishbone complicated by acute peritonitis. A 53-year-old patient was admitted to our hospital with the main complaints: diffuse abdominal pain with vomiting in a context of fever and physical asthenia. A painful febrile hepatomegaly with jaundice was objectified, as well as a non-specific biological inflammatory syndrome. An initial abdominopelvic CT scan revealed multifocal liver abscesses. Faced with the initial therapeutic failure associating parenteral antibiotic therapy and abscess drainage, a second abdominal CT scan identified a foreign body straddling the antropyloric wall and segment I of the liver.A xypho-pelvic midline laparotomy was performed with nearly 200 cc of peritoneal fluid coming out. A fishbone approximately 5 cm long was extracted by laparotomy, followed by gastric closure with omentum, peritoneal cleansing and drainage. Symptomatic adjuvant treatment was initiated, including a proton pump inhibitor (Pantoprazole). He also benefited from transfusion support in the face of anemia. Antibiotic therapy was continued for a total of 2 weeks after surgery. The evolution was favorable with follow-up imaging at 3 months, showing complete resorption of the hepatic abscesses.
Participants receive pembrolizumab 200 mg by intravenous (IV) infusion once every 3 weeks (Q3W) for up to 35 administrations (up to approximately 2 years) and receive daratumumab 16 mg/kg by IV infusion on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of Cycles 1-2; on Days 1 and 15 of Cycles 3-6, and on Day 1 of Cycle 7 and beyond, for up to 2 years. Each cycle is 28 days long.
In this invention, we propose privacy-enhancing technologies for medical tests and personalized medicine methods, which utilize patients' genomic data. Assuming the whole genome sequencing is done by a certified institution, we propose to store patients' genomic data encrypted by a patient's public keys at a Storage and Processing Unit (SPU). A part of the corresponding private key is also stored on the SPU. At the time of the test by a Medical Unit (MU), the patient provides the second part of the private key to the MU. A test with its associated markers is determined by the MU and sent to the SPU. The test is carried out on the encrypted values thanks to homomorphic operation and returned back to the MU. The latter uses the second part of the private key to access the result.
Microglial activation is a common cellular dysfunction in central nervous system inflammation, accompanied by abnormal expression of circular RNAs (circRNAs). YTHDF2, a N6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader, is known as a key element in RNA degradation. Here, lipolysaccharide induced microglia activation in mouse cortex and BV2 cells, accompanied by the decreased YTHDF2 and elevated circHIPK2. YTHDF2 overexpression or circHIPK2 knockdown in BV2 microglia inhibited the expressions of iNOS protein, IL-1β mRNA and IL-6 mRNA. Subsequent experiments revealed that YTHDF2 facilitated circHIPK2 degradation, thereby alleviating microglia activation. These findings suggest that YTHDF2 overexpression could serve as a therapeutic approach for inhibiting microglia activation.
Pre-packaged capsules taken 3 times per day. For the first month, a total of 15 g/d. During months 2 - 4, a total of 30 g/d.
In this pragmatic, clinical efficacy, parallel group randomized clinical trial, the study will enroll eligible Kaiser Permanente Northern California members (age 75 years or greater, type 2 diabetes, prescribed insulin or sulfonylureas \[SUs\], and last measured HbA1c \<=8%). Participants randomly allocated to the intervention arm will view the Prepare for Your Diabetes Care web-based educational module that is designed to help them prepare to discuss their diabetes medication regimens with their primary care providers and receive an Action Plan handout. Participants randomly allocated to the control arm will continue with usual care. All participants will complete baseline, 6-month, and 12-month surveys. The hypothesis is that empowering high-risk patients to engage in values-based discussions about diabetes treatment intensity will result - when clinically appropriate - in decreases in diabetes regimen intensity leading to decreased incidence of hypoglycemia over the 12-month study period. If successful, this study will provide evidence to support strategies for safer treatment in older adults with type 2 diabetes.

This study is an exploratory study to see if we can detect changes in fMRI activity during TENS in persons with MS. This is a randomized, single-blind crossover design. Subjects will undergo an MRI scan while they receive sham stimulation of the tibialis anterior, active stimulation of the tibialis anterior, stimulation of the quadriceps, perform continuous movements of the foot (plantar \& dorsiflexion) and a combination of stimulation of the tibialis anterior and movement of the foot. This study will include 15 subjects with relapsing remitting or progressive MS and 15 healthy controls. Blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) activation changes and the interaction networks before, during and after active TENS and differences in activation due to stimulation on quadriceps vs. tibialis anterior, stimulation on tibialis anterior vs plantar/dorsiflexion and stimulation on tibialis anterior vs stimulation combined with plantar/dorsiflexion. This will be compared between pwMS and healthy controls. This study can add to the limited knowledge and possibly help to personalize and implement TENS in the clinic.
A user interface system enables user selection of related parameters identifying an order for providing an item or service. The system employs a repository including information identifying candidate items or services for order and associated corresponding related order parameters in which an individual item or service for order is associated with multiple related order parameters. A user interface processor for, in response to user entry of order associated data, uses the repository in providing data representing a display image. The display image includes, an initial single candidate order including multiple order related parameters, order related parameter identifiers, multiple concurrently displayed columnar image areas correspondingly associated with the multiple order related parameters and individually incorporating multiple user selectable values for a respective individual order related parameter. In response to the user selection of a first value for a first order related parameter in a first columnar image area for incorporation in the candidate order, corresponding compatible sets of order related parameter values are presented in remaining columnar image areas of the multiple concurrently displayed columnar image areas. The display image enables, in response to user command, user selection of a complete candidate order derived by selection of displayed order related parameter values in the concurrently displayed columnar image areas.
Bupropion hydrochloride extended-release tablets (SR) are not approved for smoking cessation treatment; however, ZYBAN® is approved for this use. Serious neuropsychiatric symptoms have been reported in patients taking bupropion for smoking cessation. These have included changes in mood (including depression and mania), psychosis, hallucinations, paranoia, delusions, homicidal ideation, hostility, agitation, aggression, anxiety, and panic, as well as suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, and completed suicide [see BOXED WARNING and ADVERSE REACTIONS (6.2)]. Observe patients for the occurrence of neuropsychiatric reactions. Instruct patients to contact a healthcare professional if such reactions occur.

In many of these cases, a causal relationship to bupropion treatment is not certain, because depressed mood can be a symptom of nicotine withdrawal. However, some of the cases occurred in patients taking bupropion who continued to smoke.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy have revolutionized cancer treatment but can cause life-threatening cardiovascular toxicities through immune-related adverse events. Myocarditis is the most common and potentially fatal toxicity with immune checkpoint inhibitors. T-cell therapies can potentially lead to cytokine release syndrome. Diagnosis of ICI-myocarditis requires a multimodal approach, including biomarkers, imaging, and endomyocardial biopsy, while CRS is characterized by a clinical syndrome resembling distributive shock. Management involves discontinuing the offending therapy, immunosuppression with corticosteroids for ICI-myocarditis, and interleukin-6 antagonists for CRS. Collaboration between oncologists and cardiologists is crucial for early recognition and prompt treatment.
