Allogeneic MSC transplantation has shown significant efficacy and good safety in the treatment of refractory autoimmune diseases such as lupus nephritis (LN), and has a broad application prospect. One of its mechanisms is that MSCs up-regulates the production of IL-2 and promotes the production of Treg cells. The breakthrough in this technology has brought new hope for patients with autoimmune diseases. Some small sample studies at home and abroad have shown that low-dose IL-2 can be used to treat LN. Recently, the research team found that a single dose of IL-2 showed a longer effect than repeated low-dose MSCs. However, there is still a lack of prospective randomized studies to confirm that the efficacy of allogeneic MSC is better than that of low-dose IL-2. Therefore, carrying out this prospective randomized study will make a real breakthrough in the clinical application of MSC in SLE, and open up a new field for the treatment of SLE for the benefit of mankind.
The present trial is designed as an open-label, uncontrolled pilot study for evaluating the effect of rTMS on cognitive function in people with Parkinson disease (PD). The primary endpoint is the change of cognitive function, and the secondary endpoint is the improvement of motor symptoms. All participants need to complete the informed consent before they are enrolled into the trial. Preliminary data including age, sex, education, employment, medical history, drug history, disease duration, modified Hoehn-Yahr stage, and UPDRS score are collected. Cognitive function including mini-mental state examination (MMSE), clocking drawing test, Wechsler memory scale (WMS)-world list test and spatial span test, trial making test A and B, category fluency test (animal naming), and beck depression inventory-II are tested by trained neuropsychiatrists. Gait function are evaluated with time up and go (TUG), freezing of gait questionnaire (FOG-Q), and Gait-up device analysis before trial starting. Pre-treatment brain image examined by magnetic resonance image (MRI) and blood sampling for synapse protein level are performed. The participants are then arranged to receive theta burst stimulation for 5 days by using Magstim machine (Super Rapid 2) equipped with air cooled coil (D70), stimulating on supplementary motor area (SMA). After the intervention, post-treatment evaluation including cognition, motor symptoms, gait function, brain MRI, and blood sampling will be performed again with the same methods at 1 month later. Any adverse event during the trial period will also be recorded. The trial is expected to be conducted in Shuange-Ho hospital, Taipei Medical University.
The object of the present project is to evaluate an instrument for monitoring functional and cognitive autonomy in frail or disable elderly persons living alone at home. By assessing older person's autonomy at home and detecting early infra-clinical indicators, the solution could provide relevant clinical parameters to the caregivers and healthcare professionals in order to support the patient's follow-up, and support the detection of preliminary signs of functional loss. The device consists of a set of sensors embedded in the house with minimal invasiveness. The solution transmits the collected data to a remote storage server. Data will then be available for distance consultations by users (i.e., patients, careers or physicians). The study will conduct a wide range of evaluations of the device (technical, clinical, and economic), which will allow the optimization of the prototype. The evaluation of the solution will involve 25 frail or disable community-dwelling subjects living alone for 6 months. Comprehensive assessments will be conducted to highlight the feasibility, integration in healthcare network, and clinical relevance of the technological device.

Radiation-induced lung injury is a common complication associated with radiotherapy. It is characterized by early-stage radiation pneumonia and subsequent radiation pulmonary fibrosis. However, there is currently a lack of effective therapeutic strategies for radiation-induced lung injury. Recent studies have shown that tolerogenic dendritic cells interact with regulatory T cells and/or regulatory B cells to stimulate the production of immunosuppressive molecules, control inflammation, and prevent overimmunity. This highlights a potential new therapeutic activity of tolerogenic dendritic cells in managing radiation-induced lung injury. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of tolerogenic dendritic cells in the context of radiation-induced lung injury, which will be valuable for researchers in this field.

(1) Heart transplantation (HTX) improves the overall survival and functional status of end-stage heart failure patients with cardiomyopathies (CMPs). The majority of CMPs have genetic causes, and the overlap between CMPs and inherited myopathies is well documented. However, the long-term outcome in skeletal muscle function and possibility of an undiagnosed underlying genetic cause of both a cardiac and skeletal pathology remain unknown. (2) Thirty-nine patients were assessed using open and standardized interviews on muscle function, a quality-of-life (EuroQol EQ-5D-3L) questionnaire, and a physical examination (Medical Research Council Muscle scale). Whole-exome sequencing was completed in three stages for those with skeletal muscle weakness. (3) Seven patients (17.9%) reported new-onset muscle weakness and motor limitations. Objective muscle weakness in the upper and lower extremities was seen in four patients. In three of them, exome sequencing revealed pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in the genes encoding nexilin, myosin heavy chain, titin, and SPG7. (4) Our findings support a positive long-term outcome of skeletal muscle function in HTX patients. However, 10% of patients showed clinical signs of myopathy due to a possible genetic cause. The integration of genetic testing and standardized neurological assessment of motor function during the peri-HTX period should be considered.
PRESCRIBE ONLY ONE DOSE FOR EACH TREATMENT CYCLE. DO NOT DISPENSE ENTIRE CONTAINER.Dispense only a sufficient number of capsules for one dose. 

Confirm the total dose prescribed by the physician and the appropriate combination of capsule strengths.

Dispense only the appropriate number of Gleostine capsules required for the administration of a single dose.

The prescribed dose may consist of two or more different strengths and colors of capsules.

Instruct patients that Gleostine is taken as a single oral dose and will not be repeated for at least 6 weeks. Taking more than the recommended dose causes toxicities, including fatal outcomes [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2) and Overdosage ( 10)] . 

Gleostine is a cytotoxic drug. Follow applicable special handling and disposal procedures. 1

OBJECTIVES: The burden of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) remains high in sex workers globally, calling for strengthening targeted prevention strategies, including HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The study's objective was to assess HIV and STI burden among female, male and transgender sex workers in Flanders, Belgium, to guide targeting of PrEP strategies for sex workers.
METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of routine data collected between January 2016 and December 2019 by community-based organisations providing sexual healthcare services for sex workers in Flanders. HIV prevalence stratified by gender was assessed and associations with sociodemographic characteristics were explored using bivariable and multivariable logistic regression. Positivity rates of chlamydia, gonorrhoea and syphilis tests were used as proxy indicators for STI burden.
RESULTS: The study included a total of 6028 sex workers, comprising 5617 (93.2%) female, 218 (3.6%) male and 193 (3.2%) transgender sex workers. The HIV prevalence was 0.3% among female, 8.9% among male and 12.3% among transgender sex workers. Engaging in escort sex work and originating from South America or Sub-Saharan Africa were associated with a higher likelihood of having acquired HIV. The positivity rate for gonorrhoea was higher among male sex workers (5.2% vs 2.2%) and syphilis was more frequently detected among male and transgender sex workers (3.0% and 6.1% vs 0.5%), all compared with female sex workers.
CONCLUSIONS: HIV combination prevention, including improved access to PrEP, should be strengthened among sex workers in Flanders, with particular attention to male and transgender sex workers.
This study aimed the efficacy of meloxicam (MX) in treating acute clinical mastitis (ACM) without systemic symptoms in Holstein cows by studying improvement in udder pain, changes in prostaglandin E2(PGE2) and bradykinin (BK) levels in the milk, and milk yield (MY) after healing. Forty-two cows with ACM were randomly assigned to the MX treatment group (T group; n=21) and the control group (C group; n=21). At onset of illness (day 0), the T group received a 0.5 mg/kg subcutaneous (SC) injection of MX whereas the C group received 15 mL SC of saline solution as a placebo. Udder tenderness (UT) was measured, and milk samples were collected on days 0-3. There was little change in the MY of the T group before and after healing, whereas MY in the C group was significantly lower than after healing. UT on day 3 in the T group was significantly lower than that in the C group. PGE2 levels significantly decreased from day 0 to day 3 in both groups. A significant negative correlation between PGE2 and linear score was observed on day 1 in the T group, but not in the C group. In ACM without systemic symptoms, the administration MX may be useful for restoring MY and reducing udder pain after healing.
Adolescents between 13-21 and parent (if applicable) will make decisions about learning results using an electronic decision tool. Results that match their choices will be returned.
In the last few years, the frequency of sexually transmitted infections (STI) has increased, as has the number of people with multiple infections. The aim of our study was to describe the epidemiological characteristics of persons with repeated bacterial STI and to determine the risk factors for these episodes in persons living in Barcelona during the period 2007-2018. We studied all cases of bacterial STI included in the STI registry of Barcelona. Repeated STI were defined as a diagnosis of gonorrhea, syphilis, or lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) after a first episode of one of these infections. Analysis was stratified by sex and place of birth. The factors associated with time to reinfection were determined by Kaplan-Meier estimates, while the factors associated with risk of infection were determined by a Cox proportional hazards model. Of 9927 persons with a diagnosis of bacterial STI, 1690 (17.0%) had at least two episodes of STI during the study period. On multivariate analysis, repeat STI were independently associated with male sex assigned at birth (HR: 3.45; 95%CI 2.22-5.36), age less than 34 years (HR: 1.22; 95%CI 1.10-1.35); gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men, and transgender o transsexual woman (GBSMS/Trans) (HR: 4.03; 95%CI 3.24-5.03), having gonorrhea as first diagnosis (HR:1.49, 95%CI 1.34-1.66) or LGV (HR:1.75; 95%CI 1.47-2.08) and coinfection with HIV (HR:1.98; 95%CI 1.78-2.21). Sexual health programs should be strengthened to prevent STI and reinfection in key populations.
PURPOSE: The complications of surgical treatments of stress urinary incontinence have led to the search for less invasive and safer treatment procedures. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of locally administered injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF), an autologous material that plays an important role in tissue regeneration, in women with stress urinary incontinence.
METHODS: Thirty-four women were included in this prospective, single-center, and interventional study, suffering from stress urinary incontinence refractory to conservative treatment. Three consecutive i-PRF injections were applied to the mid-urethra localization at anterior vaginal wall with an interval of 1 month. ICIQ-SF, UDI-6, IIQ-7 and POPDI-6 questionnaires were used to measure pre‑treatment, 1 month and 6 months post‑treatment symptom severity and the clinical outcomes were recorded.
RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 51.5 ± 9.8 years. ICIQ-SF, UDI-6, IIQ-7 and POPDI-6 questionnaires results revealed significant clinical improvement of stress urinary incontinence severity afer the administration of i-PRF (p < 0.001). The results at 1 and 6 months after treatment did not change statistically significantly.
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that locally administiration of i-PRF is efective in relieving SUI symptoms with high success rates without any adverse effects reported. i-PRF injection may have the potential to be a novel, minimally invasive, and low-risk procedure, that could be an alternative and simple treatment modality to surgery for female patients with stress urinary incontinence. Additionally, it may create new avenues for research on therapeutic implementation of i-PRF.

Rufinamide oral suspension should be shaken well before every administration. The provided adapter and calibrated oral dosing syringe should be used to administer the oral suspension. The adapter which is supplied in the product carton should be inserted firmly into the neck of the bottle before use and remain in place for the duration of the usage of the bottle. The dosing syringe should be inserted into the adapter and the dose withdrawn from the inverted bottle. The cap should be replaced after each use. The cap fits properly when the adapter is in place [see PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION (17)].
Artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine is transforming healthcare by automating system tasks, assisting in diagnostics, predicting patient outcomes and personalising patient care, founded on the ability to analyse vast datasets. In paediatric endocrinology, AI has been developed for diabetes, for insulin dose adjustment, detection of hypoglycaemia and retinopathy screening; bone age assessment and thyroid nodule screening; the identification of growth disorders; the diagnosis of precocious puberty; and the use of facial recognition algorithms in conditions such as Cushing syndrome, acromegaly, congenital adrenal hyperplasia and Turner syndrome. AI can also predict those most at risk from childhood obesity by stratifying future interventions to modify lifestyle. AI will facilitate personalised healthcare by integrating data from 'omics' analysis, lifestyle tracking, medical history, laboratory and imaging, therapy response and treatment adherence from multiple sources. As data acquisition and processing becomes fundamental, data privacy and protecting children's health data is crucial. Minimising algorithmic bias generated by AI analysis for rare conditions seen in paediatric endocrinology is an important determinant of AI validity in clinical practice. AI cannot create the patient-doctor relationship or assess the wider holistic determinants of care. Children have individual needs and vulnerabilities and are considered in the context of family relationships and dynamics. Importantly, whilst AI provides value through augmenting efficiency and accuracy, it must not be used to replace clinical skills.
Anomalous muscles are rarely seen in the popliteal region of the lower limb. Some of them are harmless and go unnoticed and some create problems such as neuropathies. We report a novel case of an unusual additional muscle in this region. The additional muscle was closely associated with the short head of the biceps femoris muscle. It took its origin from the lower part of the lateral supracondylar line and the adjoining popliteal surface of the femur. The muscle was 10 cm in length, 1 cm in breadth and was fleshy throughout. It was oriented parallel to the medial side of the tendon of biceps femoris. It was inserted to the posterior aspect of the head of the fibula, medial to the insertion of the biceps femoris. The additional muscle derived its nerve supply from the sciatic nerve. The common peroneal nerve was closely related to the medial border of the additional muscle.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disease characterized by pulmonary involvement. Children with CF may have low levels of physical activity, physical fitness and functional capacity, and peripheral muscle weakness. Parents who take care of children with CF may be protective of their children's social environment due to reasons such as the risk of infection. Based on the idea that parents may have potential limitations on their children with CF, the aim of this study was to examine the effect of parental illness beliefs and anxiety levels on the functional and physical level of the child. Children with CF will be administered Modified Shuttle Walking Test, Munich Physical Fitness Test, quadriceps muscle strength and hand grip strength test, respiratory function and respiratory muscle strength test, Child Physical Activity Questionnaire, Shortness of Breath Beliefs Questionnaire, Revised Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire, Parental Attitude Scale, Perceived Social Support Scale. Parents will be administered the Shortness of Breath Beliefs Questionnaire (Parent version), Revised Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire (Parent version), Parent Attitude Scale, Fear of Disease Progression Questionnaire for Parents. The level of correlation between the outcomes of the scales administered to parents and the assessment outcomes administered to children will be examined.
BACKGROUND: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is distinguished by a significant likelihood of distant recurrence and an unfavourable prognosis. However, the underlying molecules and mechanisms have not been fully elucidated.
METHODS: We investigated the expression profile and clinical relevance of chaperonin-containing TCP1 subunit 6A (CCT6A) in TNBC. We performed cell function assays on TNBC cells with CCT6A knockdown or overexpression. To further explore the mechanism of action of CCT6A, RNA sequencing and co-immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry analyses were utilized. Rescue and ubiquitination assays evaluated the impact of TRIM21-mediated CCT6A ubiquitination and degradation on TNBC progression in vitro and in vivo. Finally, we studied the potential of Ipatasertib, a pharmacological AKT inhibitor, and/or anti-PD1 therapy in inhibiting TNBC progression.
RESULTS: Elevated CCT6A expression in TNBC patients was associated with an adverse prognosis and lymph node metastasis. Mechanistically, CCT6A facilitated cell migration, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and proliferation by activating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway. The TRIM21 RING domain is an E3 ligase, facilitating the K48-linked ubiquitination-mediated degradation of CCT6A, thereby impeding TNBC progression. Moreover, in the tumour tissues of the CCT6A-overexpressing mice, the quantity of CD8+ T cells and the concentration of secreted interferon-gamma were decreased, whereas in the group double-overexpression of CCT6A and TRIM21, they were elevated; the opposite was observed in the knockdown and double-knockdown groups. Ipatasertib demonstrated enhanced efficacy in inhibiting cell proliferation, invasion and migration in TNBC cells ectopically expressing CCT6A. When Ipatasertib and anti-PD1 therapies were combined, both the tumour volume and mass exhibited a notable reduction, while the expression of CD45+CD8+ T cells increased, and that of CD45+CD4+CTLA4+ and CD45+CD4+PD1+ T cells decreased.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that TRIM21 inhibits TNBC progression by facilitating the K48-linked ubiquitination-mediated degradation of CCT6A via the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway. This highlights the potential of Ipatasertib and/or anti-PD1 as therapeutic strategies, particularly for TNBC patients overexpressing CCT6A.
KEY POINTS: Chaperonin TCP1 subunit 6A (CCT6A) plays an oncogenic role in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) through the AKT signaling pathway. TRIM21 facilitated K48-linked ubiquitination-mediated degradation of CCT6A, thereby impeding TNBC progression. Our study collectively underscores the potential of Ipatasertib in conjunction with anti-PD1 therapy as a promising strategy to counteract CCT6A/AKT hyperactivity-driven TNBC progression.
