Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a relatively rare but important and increasingly recognized cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Most patients presenting with SCAD are treated with beta-blockers (BB) and antiplatelet drugs (AP). Although appealing from a pathophysiological standpoint, such management strategy is completely empiric. The Beta-Blockers and Antiplatelet Agents in Patients with Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (BA-SCAD) randomized clinical trial is an academic, pragmatic, nation-wide, prospective study developed under the auspices of the Spanish Society of Cardiology (SEC) that aims to assess the efficacy of medical therapy in SCAD patients. Using a factorial 2x2 design, patients will be randomized (1:1/1:1) to: 1) BB (yes/no) and 2) short AP regimen (1 month) vs prolonged dual AP therapy (DAPT) (12 months). A conservative medical management will be initially recommended, with coronary revascularization reserved for patients with ongoing/refractory ischemia. Only patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) will be randomized to BB (yes/no) because patients with LVEF \<40% will receive BB according to current guidelines. Likewise, only medically managed patients will be randomized to short AP therapy vs 1-year DAPT, because patients requiring coronary interventions will receive DAPT. The study will have a pragmatic, open label, blind outcomes design (PROBE). The type and dose of BB and AP agents will be at the discretion of the treating physician. Treatment adherence will be reinforced and closely monitored and the potential influence of drug discontinuation/cross-over on outcomes will be carefully evaluated. A total of 600 SCAD patients will be randomized within 2 years (300 per arm in a factorial 2x2 design). The primary efficacy endpoint will include the composite of death, acute myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, coronary revascularization, recurrent SCAD, and unplanned hospital admission for ACS or heart failure at 1 year. The primary safety endpoint will be bleeding according the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria ≥ 3. An analysis of net clinical benefit, including primary efficacy and safety endpoints, will also be performed. All patients will be clinically followed at 1 year (primary endpoint) and yearly thereafter. Although the main study will be pragmatic, following routine clinical practice, a systematic and comprehensive set of additional ancillary studies and investigations (clinical, imaging, biomarkers, inflammatory, immunologic, pharmacogenetic and genetic) will be prospectively organized to ensure a multidisciplinary and holistic view on this challenging condition.
Intestinal microbiome dysbiosis is a known risk factor for recurrent kidney stone disease (KSD) with prior data suggesting a role for dysfunctional metabolic pathways other than those directly utilizing oxalate. To identify alternative mechanisms, the current study analyzed differences in the metabolic potential of intestinal microbiomes of patients (n = 17) and live-in controls (n = 17) and determined their relevance to increased risk for KSD using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. We found no differences in the abundance of genes associated with known oxalate degradation pathways, supporting the notion that dysfunction in other metabolic pathways plays a role in KSD. Further analysis showed decreased abundance of key enzymes involved in butyrate biosynthesis in patient intestinal microbiomes. Furthermore, de novo construction of microbial genomes showed that the majority of genes significantly enriched in non-stone formers are affiliated with Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, a major butyrate producer. Specifically pertaining to butyrate metabolism, the majority of abundant genes mapped back to F. prausnitzii, Alistipes spp., and Akkermansia muciniphila. No differences were observed in ascorbate or glyoxylate metabolic pathways. Collectively, these data suggest that impaired bacterial-associated butyrate metabolism may be an oxalate-independent mechanism that contributes to an increased risk for recurrent KSD. This indicates that the role of the intestinal microbiome in recurrent KSD is multi-factorial, which is representative of the highly intertwined metabolic nature of this complex environment. Future bacteria-based treatments must not be restricted to targeting only oxalate metabolism.
Buprenorphine is a potent analgesic agent, it has been shown to be as effective as morphine. The main clinical application of buprenorphine is to relief postoperative pains or for patients in the terminal phase of cancer. The chance of becoming addiction and abuse is low, therefore it is pretty safe for clinical use. The half life of buprenorphine is short, since its hepatic extraction (extraction ratio is 0.7 to 0.9) and metabolism are high. For these reasons, oral administration of buprenorphine becomes impractical due to the need of giving drug frequiently. The present invention is related to enhancers used in transdermal preparations of narcotic analgesic agents. This invention employs pure components of Chinese herbs in a fixed ratio as transdermal penetration enhancers. Compositions of these transdermal preparations usually include 0.1 to 50% of narcotic analgesic agent, 0.1 to 70% of pure components from Chinese herb as transdermal penetration enhancers, and other necessary excipients for transdermal delivery. Studies for the present invention in nude mice revealed that a transdermal preparation containing 10% of terpineol can delivery 15 mg of buprenorphine through 10 cm 2  skin area in 48 hours, which satisfied the need of practical use.
Femoral shaft fracture is a common orthopaedic injury. Intramedullary nail is one of the standard treatments. Its primary goal is to develop an osseous bridge between adjacent motion segments to prevent motion, relieve pain, and facilitate bone union. Delayed union or nonunion is common in femoral shaft fracture. Risk factors include comminuted fracture, open fracture, smoking, diabetes and open reduction of fracture fixation. Mesenchymal stem cells are pluripotent cells that can differentiate into multiple mesenchymal tissues, including tenocytes, chondrocytes and osteoblasts, as well as being a source of multiple growth factors to establish an environment conducive to soft and hard tissue regeneration. As bone marrow concentration has high concentration of mesenchymal stem cells, some studies have shown that autologous bone marrow concentration can improve bone healing. Therefore, the goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of bone marrow concentration on union of femoral shaft fracture.
Raoultella ornithinolytica is a rare, gram-negative environmental enterobacterium. Although infections in humans caused by R. ornithinolytica are uncommon, there are increasing reports implicating it in urinary tract infections, hepatobiliary infections, and bacteremia, designating it as an emerging pathogen. Its habitat is primarily in aquatic environments and soil, with seafood frequently identified as a potential source of infection. While these infections have predominantly been described in immunocompromised patients previously, our case suggests that advanced age may be a significant risk factor. We describe a case of a 73-year-old man presenting with encephalopathy who then was found to have R. ornithinolytica bacteremia from a genitourinary source. Following antibiotic treatment, the infection resolved and the neurologic symptoms improved. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first documented case in the medical literature of R. ornithinolytica featuring a primary neurologic presentation.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether enteral melatonin decreases the incidence of delirium in critically ill adults.
METHODS: In this randomized controlled trial, adults were admitted to the intensive care unit and received either usual standard care alone (Control Group) or in combination with 3mg of enteral melatonin once a day at 9 PM (Melatonin Group). Concealment of allocation was done by serially numbered opaque sealed envelopes. The intensivist assessing delirium and the investigator performing the data analysis were blinded to the group allocation. The primary outcome was the incidence of delirium within 24 hours of the intensive care unit stay. The secondary outcomes were the incidence of delirium on Days 3 and 7, intensive care unit mortality, length of intensive care unit stay, duration of mechanical ventilation and Glasgow outcome score (at discharge).
RESULTS: We included 108 patients in the final analysis, with 54 patients in each group. At 24 hours of intensive care unit stay, there was no difference in the incidence of delirium between Melatonin and Control Groups (29.6 versus 46.2%; RR = 0.6; 95%CI 0.38 - 1.05; p = 0.11). No secondary outcome showed a statistically significant difference.
CONCLUSION: Enteral melatonin 3mg is not more effective at decreasing the incidence of delirium than standard care is in critically ill adults.
An approval from the hospital ethical committee will be obtained for this study. As a protocol all patients presenting to Institute of Dentistry, CMH Lahore Medical College will be examined in general OPD and those patients who fulfill the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be referred to Prosthodontics department. After history, complete oral examination and informed consent. Patients will be divided into two groups by lottery method; In Group 1 Hybrid (sand blasted acid etched implants) will be place. In Group 2 Resorbable Blast Media (RBM) implant surfaces will be placed. On the basis of randomized study the patients will be selected for the study to measure implant primary stability with a resonance frequency analyzer at the time of initial loading of implant, starting with an assessment immediately following implant placement with insertion torque of 30 Ncm and then secondary stability at 12 weeks post operatively by using Ostell Mentor. This instrument on each implant by inserting a standardized abutment (Smartpeg) of fixed length into each implant. The transducer probe (Osstell mentor probe) will be held so that the probe tip was aimed at the small magnet on top of the Smartpeg at a distance of 2-3 mm in both the buccal and lingual directions, and the mean of these measurements will then be calculated. The probe will be held still during the pulsing time until the instrument beeped and the displayed the ISQ value. ISQ1 will be evaluated immediately during initial implant loading which will be primary stability and ISQ2 will be evaluated after 12 weeks of implant placement when implant is properly osseointegrated, which will be secondary stability of an implant.

The implant fixtures will be DIO UF II for the Hybrid implants and the Osstem TSII plus system for the RBM implants. Data would be stratified for age, gender and implant site to address the effect modifiers.
Loss-of-function sequence variations in the IL36RN gene encoding IL-36 receptor antagonist cause familial generalized pustular psoriasis, which begins shortly after birth and is difficult to treat, and its effects on the epidermis are unclear. This study investigated the involvement of IL-36 receptor agonists in the epidermal formation of generalized pustular psoriasis. We found that the IL-36 receptor agonists, especially mature IL-36γ, stimulated IL-8 and pro-IL-36γ production in the epidermis while downregulating the genes encoding epidermal cornified envelope-related proteins, for example, corneodesmosin. IL-36 receptor antagonist and monoclonal anti-IL-36γ antibodies counteracted the effect of mature IL-36γ on corneodesmosin in keratinocytes in a dose-dependent manner. In the epidermis of patients with generalized pustular psoriasis with IL36RN loss-of-function sequence variations, pro-IL-36γ was overproduced in the epidermis, and corneodesmosin protein expression was markedly decreased in the region of giant subcorneal pustules (Kogoj's spongiform pustules), with high neutrophil infiltration. IL-8 induced by mature IL-36γ stimulated the infiltration of several neutrophils in the epidermis. The newly produced pro-IL-36γ is cleaved to the mature form by neutrophil proteases. This newly produced mature IL-36γ was predicted to further suppress the gene expression of corneodesmosin, leading to significant stratum corneum exfoliation and formation of the pustules. Overall, our results elucidate the mechanism underlying the formation of Kogoj's spongiform pustules in generalized pustular psoriasis.
INTRODUCTION: Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) vary amongst different surgical techniques. We aim to compare the incidence of PPCs after laparoscopic non-robotic versus laparoscopic robotic abdominal surgery.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS: LapRas (Risk Factors for PPCs in Laparoscopic Non-robotic vs Laparoscopic robotic abdominal surgery) incorporates harmonized data from 2 observational studies on abdominal surgery patients and PPCs: 'Local ASsessment of VEntilatory management during General Anaesthesia for Surgery' (LAS VEGAS), and 'Assessment of Ventilation during general AnesThesia for Robotic surgery' (AVATaR). The primary endpoint is the occurrence of one or more PPCs in the first five postoperative days. Secondary endpoints include the occurrence of each individual PPC, hospital length of stay and in-hospital mortality. Logistic regression models will be used to identify risk factors for PPCs in laparoscopic non-robotic versus laparoscopic robotic abdominal surgery. We will investigate whether differences in the occurrence of PPCs between the two groups are driven by differences in duration of anesthesia and/or the intensity of mechanical ventilation.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This analysis will address a clinically relevant research question comparing laparoscopic and robotic assisted surgery. No additional ethical committee approval is required for this metanalysis. Data will be shared with the scientific community by abstracts and original articles submitted to peer-reviewed journals.
REGISTRATION: The registration of this post-hoc analysis is pending; individual studies that were merged into the used database were registered at clinicaltrials.gov: LAS VEGAS with identifier NCT01601223, AVATaR with identifier NCT02989415.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy of abbreviated urine collection (≤12 hours) compared with 24-hour urine collection for measuring creatinine clearance (CrCl) in critically ill adult patients.
DATA SOURCES: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and ProQuest Dissertations and Thesis Global; screened reference lists of included studies; and contacted the authors when needed. English studies only were considered with no restriction on dates.
STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: After duplicate removal, 2 reviewers screened titles/abstracts, reviewed full-text articles, and extracted data independently. Studies that compared abbreviated versus 24-hour urine collection for measuring CrCl were included. We assessed the risk of bias using the QUADAS-2 tool. We extracted correlation coefficients, mean prediction errors (ME)-as a measure of bias, and root mean squared prediction errors (RMSE)-as a measure of precision.
DATA SYNTHESIS: Five studies were included, comprising 528 adult critically ill adults from surgical, medical, and trauma intensive care units (ICUs). Three studies had high risk of bias, and 2 had low risk. The studies evaluated different durations of urine collection, including 30-minute, 2-hour, 4-hour, 6-hour, and 12-hour. Mean 24-hour CrCl ranged from 57 mL/min/1.73 m2 to 103 mL/min. Abbreviated urine collection led to CrCl that correlated well with the 24-hour measured CrCl (correlation coefficient ranged from 0.8 to 0.95). Mean prediction error ranged from 5 mL/min/1.73 m2 to 16 mL/min (from 8% to 25% of the 24-hour CrCl). Root mean squared prediction error calculated from 1 study was 30.5 mL/min/1.73 m2.
RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE: Abbreviated urine collection is used to measure CrCl for renal drug dosing in critically ill patients, but its accuracy is not well-established.
CONCLUSIONS: Abbreviated urine collection may overestimate CrCl compared with 24-hour urine collection. Larger, well-conducted studies are needed to evaluate the accuracy of CrCl measured using different durations of urine collection in critically ill patients.

The modern study of Wilms tumour was prompted nearly 50 years ago, when Alfred Knudson proposed the 'two-hit' model of tumour development. Since then, the efforts of researchers worldwide have substantially expanded our knowledge of Wilms tumour biology, including major advances in genetics - from cloning the first Wilms tumour gene to high-throughput studies that have revealed the genetic landscape of this tumour. These discoveries improve understanding of the embryonal origin of Wilms tumour, familial occurrences and associated syndromic conditions. Many efforts have been made to find and clinically apply prognostic biomarkers to Wilms tumour, for which outcomes are generally favourable, but treatment of some affected individuals remains challenging. Challenges are also posed by the intratumoural heterogeneity of biomarkers. Furthermore, preclinical models of Wilms tumour, from cell lines to organoid cultures, have evolved. Despite these many achievements, much still remains to be discovered: further molecular understanding of relapse in Wilms tumour and of the multiple origins of bilateral Wilms tumour are two examples of areas under active investigation. International collaboration, especially when large tumour series are required to obtain robust data, will help to answer some of the remaining unresolved questions.
