This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized study that will be conducted at up to 22 centers in Italy. All patients who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomized to Cypher Select-TM Stent or SONIC-TM Stent. Patients will have repeat angiography at 8 months and clinical follow-up to 2 years. The study population will consist of 150 patients with single chronic total occlusion in a native coronary artery with a reference diameter between 2.75 mm and 3.75 mm. The occlusion has to be dilatable by balloon angioplasty and can be fully covered by \< 2 stents of ≤33 mm of length each. The CTO is defined as obstruction of a native coronary artery, at least 30 days old, with no luminal continuity and with Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade 0 or 1. Following confirmation of eligibility criteria and successful pre-dilating of the CTO, patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive SES CYPHER SELECT Stent or BMS SONIC Stent.

The coronary angiograms will be assessed at a core laboratory with Quantitative Coronary Angiography. Quantitative angiographic parameters including minimal luminal diameter, binary restenosis rate, total reocclusion rate, late luminal loss, will be evaluated at 8 months. The incidence of clinical events, including death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, stent thrombosis, will be evaluated at 8, 12 and 24 months.

OBJECTIVE: The mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) occupies a critical node in intermediary metabolism, prompting interest in its utility as a therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity and cardiometabolic disease. Dysregulated nutrient metabolism in adipose tissue is a prominent feature of obesity pathophysiology, yet the functional role of adipose MPC has not been explored. We investigated whether the MPC shapes the adaptation of adipose tissue to dietary stress in female and male mice.
METHODS: The impact of pharmacological and genetic disruption of the MPC on mitochondrial pathways of triglyceride assembly (lipogenesis and glyceroneogenesis) was assessed in 3T3L1 adipocytes and murine adipose explants, combined with analyses of adipose MPC expression in metabolically compromised humans. Whole-body and adipose-specific glucose metabolism were subsequently investigated in male and female mice lacking adipocyte MPC1 (Mpc1AD-/-) and fed either standard chow, high-fat western style, or high-sucrose lipid restricted diets for 24 weeks, using a combination of radiolabeled tracers and GC/MS metabolomics.
RESULTS: Treatment with UK5099 or siMPC1 impaired the synthesis of lipids and glycerol-3-phosphate from pyruvate and blunted triglyceride accumulation in 3T3L1 adipocytes, whilst MPC expression in human adipose tissue was negatively correlated with indices of whole-body and adipose tissue metabolic dysfunction. Mature adipose explants from Mpc1AD-/- mice were intrinsically incapable of incorporating pyruvate into triglycerides. In vivo, MPC deletion restricted the incorporation of circulating glucose into adipose triglycerides, but only in female mice fed a zero fat diet, and this associated with sex-specific reductions in tricarboxylic acid cycle pool sizes and compensatory transcriptional changes in lipogenic and glycerol metabolism pathways. However, whole-body adiposity and metabolic health were preserved in Mpc1AD-/- mice regardless of sex, even under conditions of zero dietary fat.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings highlight the greater capacity for mitochondrially driven triglyceride assembly in adipose from female versus male mice and expose a reliance upon MPC-gated metabolism for glucose partitioning in female adipose under conditions of dietary lipid restriction.
1459349 Cine sound camera AGFAGEVAERT AG 12 July 1974 [14 July 1973] 30987/74 Heading G2E  In a cine camera with sound-recording means, the sensitivity of the recording means is variable in accordance with the focal length setting of a zoom lens of the camera. As shown, the microphone circuit is connected via terminals 17, 18, 19 to corresponding terminals 20, 21, 22 on the camera 1. The signal passes through a variable resistor 5 connected to the input of an amplifier 6 to magnetic sound-recording head 8, 9, where recording on to a film strip 23 takes place. The zoom lens has a movable element 2 which is mechanically linked to the tapping 4 on resistor 5. Thus as the focal length setting of the lens increases, resistor 5 is altered so that the input voltage of amplifier 6, and hence the voltage on the recording head 8, 9, is correspondingly increased. The sound hence appears to be coming from nearer the camera.

In response to the public health emergency posed by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, researchers at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) are leading a large international collaboration to characterize the innate and adaptive immune responses to acute severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and convalescence. This protocol will allow the NIAID Laboratory of Clinical Immunology and Microbiology (LCIM) to remotely enroll participants for send-in sample collection for analyses to characterize the immune response to SARS-CoV-2, better enabling the LCIM to support NIAID s commitment to safeguarding the health of Americans and people around the world by accelerating research efforts to characterize SARS CoV 2. This is a prospective sample collection protocol to receive send in biological samples (e.g., blood, saliva, stool, and leftover clinically collected samples) for exploratory studies to characterize the immune response to COVID 19. Participants will not be seen at the NIH for study visits. Under this protocol, samples will be collected longitudinally from up to 300 patients with confirmed or suspected SARS CoV 2 infection and sent to the NIH for research evaluations. Additionally, samples will be collected from up to 200 uninfected patients and patient relatives. Testing will be performed to improve understanding of host immune responses to COVID-19, including but not limited to genetic, molecular, and proteomic testing. Findings relevant to participants health and medical care may be returned to them and their referring health care providers or study teams.
In animals, the vasodilatory effects reduce right and left ventricular afterload and increase cardiac output and stroke volume. Other studies have shown that treprostinil causes a dose-related negative inotropic and lusitropic effect. No major effects on cardiac conduction have been observed.

Treprostinil produces vasodilation and tachycardia. Single doses of treprostinil up to 84 mcg by inhalation produce modest and short-lasting effects on QTc, but this is apt to be an artifact of the rapidly changing heart rate. Treprostinil administered by the subcutaneous or intravenous routes has the potential to generate concentrations many-fold greater than those generated via the inhaled route; the effect on the QTc interval when treprostinil is administered parenterally has not been established.

Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is one of the most common environmental contaminants due to its tremendous industrial applications, but its effects and mechanism remain to be investigated. Our previous studies showed that Cr(VI) exposure caused malignant transformation and tumorigenesis. This study showed that glycolytic proteins HK2 and LDHA levels were statistically significant changed in blood samples of Cr(VI)-exposed workers and in Cr-T cells compared to the control subjects and parental cells. HK2 and LDHA knockdown inhibited cell proliferation and angiogenesis, and higher HK2 and LDHA expression levels are associated with advanced stages and poor prognosis of lung cancer. We found that miR-218 levels were significantly decreased and miR-218 directly targeted HK2 and LDHA for inhibiting their expression. Overexpression of miR-218 inhibited glucose consumption and lactate production in Cr-T cells. Further study found that miR-218 inhibited tumor growth and angiogenesis by decreasing HK2 and LDHA expression in vivo. MiR-218 levels were negatively correlated with HK2 and LDHA expression levels and cancer development in human lung and other cancers. These results demonstrated that miR-218/HK2/LDHA pathway is vital for regulating Cr(VI)-induced carcinogenesis and human cancer development.

A process for the production of insulin using fungal cells. Human insulin producing cells are extracted to obtain the functional genome (the genetic material which determines the capacity of the cells to produce insulin) which is used to transform fungal cells, making them capable of producing insulin. The insulin has been extracted and identified by radioimmune assay and by bioassay. The same process can also be applied to produce animal insulins using specific specie transforming functional insulinogenic genomes. A process for serial secondary culture of insulin producing cells is disclosed. The significance of the invention is related to the great need to produce human insulin in large amounts. Human insulin has distinct biological and clinical advantages when compared with commercially available animal insulins now used for the treatment of diabetes mellitus in man.

Everolimus is mainly metabolized by CYP3A4 in the liver and to some extent in the intestinal wall and is a substrate for the multidrug efflux pump, P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Therefore, absorption and subsequent elimination of systemically absorbed everolimus may be influenced by medicinal products that affect CYP3A4 and/or P-gp. Concurrent treatment with strong inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, clarithromycin, telithromycin, ritonavir, boceprevir, telaprevir) and inducers (e.g., rifampin, rifabutin) of CYP3A4 is not recommended. Inhibitors of P-gp (e.g., digoxin, cyclosporine) may decrease the efflux of everolimus from intestinal cells and increase everolimus blood concentrations. In vitro, everolimus was a competitive inhibitor of CYP3A4 and of CYP2D6, potentially increasing the concentrations of medicinal products eliminated by these enzymes. Thus, caution should be exercised when coadministering everolimus with CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 substrates with a narrow therapeutic index. [See Dosage and Administration (2.3)]

All in vivo interaction studies were conducted without concomitant cyclosporine. Pharmacokinetic interactions between everolimus and concomitantly administered drugs are discussed below. Drug interaction studies have not been conducted with drugs other than those described below.
Microalbuminuria is an early symptom and prognostic marker of the progression of renal pathology. The analysis of the role of anionic components of the renal glomeruli in the albumin retention and the development of a model of minimal changes in the glomerular filter leading to the appearance of microalbuminuria are relevant. The effect of organic cations D-arginine methyl esters (D-AME) and D-nitroarginine (D-NAME) on the excretion of albumin by the kidneys in rats was studied. D-AME had no effect on urinary albumin excretion in rats. D-NAME caused microalbuminuria, which persisted for more than a day and sharply increased after injection of vasopressin. The number of anionic sites labeled with polyethyleneimine decreased in the structures of the glomerular filter. D-NAME-induced microalbuminuria can later serve as a model for studying nephroprotective or damaging factors.

CRA will audit the quality of data regularly.
In cell cultures the inhibitory activity of ribavirin for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is selective. The mechanism of action is unknown. Reversal of the in vitro antiviral activity by guanosine or xanthosine suggests ribavirin may act as an analogue of these cellular metabolites.

Microbiology

Ribavirin has demonstrated antiviral activity against RSV in vitro1 and in experimentally infected cotton rats.2 Several clinical isolates of RSV were evaluated for ribavirin susceptibility by plaque reduction in tissue culture. Plaques were reduced 85-98% by 16 mcg/mL; however, results may vary with the test system. The development of resistance has not been evaluated in vitro or in clinical trials.

In addition to the above, ribavirin has been shown to have in vitro activity against influenza A and B viruses and herpes simplex virus, but the clinical significance of these data is unknown.

Immunologic Effects

Neutralizing antibody responses to RSV were decreased in aerosolized VIRAZOLE-treated infants compared to placebo-treated infants.3 One study also showed that RSV-specific IgE antibody in bronchial secretions was decreased in patients treated with aerosolized VIRAZOLE. In rats, ribavirin administration resulted in lymphoid atrophy of the thymus, spleen and lymph nodes. Humoral immunity was reduced in guinea pigs and ferrets. Cellular immunity was also mildly depressed in animal studies. The clinical significance of these observations is unknown.
The electrotherapy equipment used (Enraf) produces a continuous galvanic current through the cathode (modified electrosurgical scalpel with the needle) while the patient holds the anode (handheld electrode). Once the needle have reach the relevant treatment area, a continuous current of 3 pulses at an intensity of 3, 1.5 mA for 5 seconds conveyed to the muscle will be applied. It will be done exactly the same way as in the DN group with the only difference that the needle will be transmitting the electrical current.
The safety experience in U.S. placebo-controlled trials included 1069 hypertensive patients, of whom 832 received trandolapril tablets. Nearly 200 hypertensive patients received trandolapril tablets for over one year in open-label trials. In controlled trials, withdrawals for adverse events were 2.1% on placebo and 1.4% on trandolapril tablets. Adverse events considered at least possibly related to treatment occurring in 1% of trandolapril tablets-treated patients and more common on trandolapril tablets than placebo, pooled for all doses, are shown below, together with the frequency of discontinuation of treatment because of these events.

Headache and fatigue were all seen in more than 1% of trandolapril tablets-treated patients but were more frequently seen on placebo. Adverse events were not usually persistent or difficult to manage.

Pulse oximeters are essential for assessing blood oxygen levels in emergency departments, operating theatres, and hospital wards. However, although the role of pulse oximeters in detecting hypoxaemia and guiding oxygen therapy is widely recognised, their role in primary care settings is less clear. In this Viewpoint, we argue that pulse oximeters have a crucial role in risk-stratification in both hospital and primary care or outpatient settings. Our reanalysis of hospital and primary care data from diverse low-income and middle-income settings shows elevated risk of death for children with moderate hypoxaemia (ie, peripheral oxygen saturations [SpO2] 90-93%) and severe hypoxaemia (ie, SpO2 <90%). We suggest that moderate hypoxaemia in the primary care setting should prompt careful clinical re-assessment, consideration of referral, and close follow-up. We provide practical guidance to better support front-line health-care workers to use pulse oximetry, including rethinking traditional binary SpO2 thresholds and promoting a more nuanced approach to identification and emergency treatment of the severely ill child.
