<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a new immunologic mechanism activator comprising an alginic acid oligomer prepared by splitting alginic acid, and to obtain pharmaceutical compositions, food/drink and feed each containing the activator.  <P>SOLUTION: The alginic acid oligomer has high immunologic mechanism activating effect. This oligomer has a polymerization degree of 3-9 constituent monosaccharides and is prepared by enzymolysis with an alginic acid lyase or hydrolysis with an acid of alginic acid extracted from sea algae followed by isolation. The active ingredient of the new immunologic mechanism activator, i.e. the alginic acid oligomer, induces the production of TNF(tumor necrosis factor) by acting on human peripheral leukocytes, particularly induces the production and release of TNF by acting on macrophage. This active ingredient can be used for improving the resistance to various infectious diseases in human bodies as pharmaceutical compositions, functional food/drink or feed through its formulation.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Participants who are already on a stable dose of ruxolitinib for at least 8 weeks who have achieved a sub-optimal response will be assigned to Group 2. In Group 2, participants will receive tasquinimod daily on days 1-28 and ruxolitinib dose will be continued.
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) are organized lymphoid-like aggregations in non-lymphoid tissues. Tissues with chronic and persistent inflammation infiltration may drive and form ectopic germinal center-like structures, which are very common in autoimmune diseases, chronic infections, and tumor microenvironments. However, the mechanisms governing the formation of TLSs are still being explored. At present, it is not clear whether the formation of TLSs is associated with local uncontrolled immune inflammatory responses. While TLSs suggest a good prognosis in tumors, the opposite is true in autoimmune diseases. This review article will discuss the current views on initiating and maintaining TLSs and the potential therapeutic target in autoimmune diseases.
Splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT), a thrombosis which involves the portal, mesenteric, and splenic veins, and the Budd-Chiari syndrome, represents an uncommon type of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Like with deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities and pulmonary embolism, ample evidence suggests a significant association between SVT and cancer, particularly intra-abdominal solid malignancies (e.g. hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Clinical symptoms of SVT in cancer patients can be ambiguous, and frequently attributed to the primary cancer itself. Alternatively, SVT may be asymptomatic and detected incidentally during cancer staging or follow-up evaluations. SVT can also precede the diagnosis of cancer and has been associated with poorer outcomes in patients with liver or pancreatic cancers. Therefore, an unprovoked SVT warrants a thorough evaluation for an underlying malignancy or MPN. Cancer-associated SVT carries a high risk of VTE extension, recurrence and bleeding. Extended anticoagulant treatment is often required in the absence of a high bleeding risk. Guidelines suggest treatment with either low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), although available data on the safety and effectiveness of DOACs in these patients is limited. This comprehensive review outlines the epidemiology, pathogenesis, risk factors, and diagnosis of cancer-associated SVT and underscores the importance of comprehensive patient evaluation and evidence-based management.
Patient is screened for pregnancy intention and then has a bedside family planning counseling session with the investigator taking into account pregnancy intention, medical conditions, medications, and previous contraception used. At the end of the conversation, if patient is desiring contraception, the patient is offered three contraception options (as appropriate for their medical conditions and paid for as part of the study) to be initiated prior to discharge: Etonogestrel implant, medroxyprogesterone 150 mg IM injection, or a year's supply of oral contraception pills.
PHLF is a major risk factor for mortality in patients who underwent major hepatectomy. A specific treatment is yet not available. In a primary proof-of-concept study, it was shown that it is safe and feasible to use MARS in patients with PHLF early after hepatectomy. Survival was superior to a historical control group.

This study will include patients with early, primary PHLF (based on the 50:50 criteria) after major liver surgery. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive standard treatment alone or standard treatment + liver dialysis using the Molecular Adsorbent Recirculating System (MARS). Relevant outcome along with several physiological parameters will be assessed.
In the present invention, there is disclosed an indole derivative or a salt thereof, or a solvate thereof, pharmaceutical compositions in which the derivative is comprised as well as the use of this compound or composition in medicine. Particular indole compounds are selective for mammalian osteoclasts, acting to selectively inhibit their bone resorbing activity. These compounds are therefore considered to be particularly useful for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases associated with loss of bone mass, such as osteoporosis and related osteopenic diseases, Paget's disease, hyperparathyroidism and related diseases. These compounds are also considered to possess antitumor activity, antiviral activity, antiulcer activity, immunosuppressant activity, antilipidemic activity, antiatherosclerotic activity and to be useful for the treatment of AIDS and Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, these compounds are also considered useful in inhibiting angiogenesis i.e. the formation of new blood vessels, which is observed in various types of pathological conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, diabetic retinopathy, psoriasis and solid tumors.
The aim of this study was to apply a state-of-the-art quantitative lipidomic profiling platform to uncover lipid alterations predictive of melanoma progression. Our study included 151 melanoma patients; of these, 83 were without metastasis and 68 with metastases. Plasma samples were analyzed using a targeted Lipidyzer™ platform, covering 13 lipid classes and over 1100 lipid species. Following quality control filters, 802 lipid species were included in the subsequent analyses. Total plasma lipid contents were significantly reduced in patients with metastasis. Specifically, levels of two out of the thirteen lipid classes (free fatty acids (FFAs) and lactosylceramides (LCERs)) were significantly decreased in patients with metastasis. Three lipids (CE(12:0), FFA(24:1), and TAG47:2-FA16:1) were identified as more effective predictors of melanoma metastasis than the well-known markers LDH and S100B. Furthermore, the predictive value substantially improved upon combining the lipid markers. We observed an increase in the cumulative levels of five lysophosphatidylcholines (LPC(16:0); LPC(18:0); LPC(18:1); LPC(18:2); LPC(20:4)), each individually associated with an elevated risk of lymph node metastasis but not cutaneous or distant metastasis. Additionally, seventeen lipid molecules were linked to patient survival, four of which (CE(12:0), CE(14:0), CE(15:0), SM(14:0)) overlapped with the lipid panel predicting metastasis. This study represents the first comprehensive investigation of the plasma lipidome of melanoma patients to date. Our findings suggest that plasma lipid profiles may serve as important biomarkers for predicting clinical outcomes of melanoma patients, including the presence of metastasis, and may also serve as indicators of patient survival.

INTRODUCTION: Obesity is often labeled as a physical characteristic of a patient rather than a disease and it is subject to obesity bias by health providers, which harms the equality of healthcare in this population.
OBJECTIVE: Identifying whether obesity bias interferes in clinical decision-making in the treatment of patients with obesity.
METHODS: A systematic review of observational studies published between 1993 and 2023 in MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library on obesity bias and therapeutic decisions was carried out. The last search was conducted on June 30, 2023. The main outcome was the difference between clinical decisions in the treatment of individuals with and without obesity. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale for observational studies was used to assess for quality. After the selection process, articles were presented in narrative and thematic synthesis categories to better organize the descriptive analysis.
RESULTS: Of the 2546 records identified, 13 were included. The findings showed fewer screening exams for cancer in patients with obesity, who were also susceptible to less frequent pharmacological treatment intensification in the management of diabetes. Women with obesity received fewer pelvic exams and evidence of diminished visual contact and physician confidence in treatment adherence was reported. Some studies found no disparities in treatment for abdominal pain and tension headaches between patients presented with and without obesity.
CONCLUSION: The presence of obesity bias has negative effects on medical decision-making and on the quality of care provided to patients with obesity. These findings reveal the urgent necessity for reflection and development of strategies to mitigate its adverse impacts. (The protocol was registered with the international prospective register of systematic reviews, PROSPERO, under the number CRD42022307567).
For the measurement, the participant was asked to lie on his side and flex the knee to 90 degrees. The examiner stabilized the patient from the pelvis with one hand, and with the other hand brought the flexed leg of the participant to abduction and extension. The Examiner 3 recorded the result by placing the device to be measured on the lateral projection of the midpoint of the femur.
PURPOSE: A skin whitening cosmetic containing one selected from the group consisting of verazine, epimer-verazine and a mixture thereof as a main component. The cosmetic inhibits pigmentation by inhibiting melanin-production, it is therefore effective in whitening the skin and improving chloasma or freckles. CONSTITUTION: The skin whitening cosmetic contains 0.000001 to 10% by weight of one selected from the group consisting of verazine, epimer-verazine and a mixture thereof Veratrum album Veratrum nigrum or the like. For an example, 1,000g Veratrum nigrum is extracted and filtered with a filter paper with 100 meshes. The filtrate is concentrated at 60deg.C under reduced pressure and then freeze-dried to give 52g dried extract. The dried extract is treated with silica column chromatography to give 1g fraction with a purity of 99.9% or more.

Adolescents who have biopsy-confirmed NASH and wish to participate in a Comprehensive Lifestyle Intervention (26+ contact hours) including individual meetings with a study dietitian, group nutrition classes, behavior management modules and physical activity goals.
The invention discloses a drug-loaded hyaluronic acid polydopamine-coated mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticle and a preparation method thereof. The nanoparticle takes polydopamine as a basic material, firstly mesoporous polydopamine is synthesized, and then the nanoparticle with both tumor passive targeting and active targeting is constructed through the loading of docetaxel, the self-coating of a polydopamine shell layer and the modification of hyaluronic acid molecules. The nanoparticle has single component and simple preparation process. Photothermal experiments prove that the drug-loaded hyaluronic acid polydopamine-coated mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles have good photothermal conversion efficiency and photothermal stability. The drug release experiment shows that the polydopamine shell layer has pH sensitivity and gating effect. Cell experiments prove that the nanoparticle is expected to be used for photothermal therapy and chemotherapy of tumors. The drug-loaded hyaluronic acid polydopamine-coated mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticle is simple to prepare, has safety and effectiveness when being used for treating tumors, and has wide application prospect.
Stimulation electrodes were arranged in a 4 × 1 ring configuration at F1, F2, C1 ,C2 and FCz, with the central one delivering an alternating current 2 mA and the surrounding 4 electrodes delivering one-fourth of the central electrode's current in the opposite polarity. The average peak-to-peak stimulation intensity across participants was 2 mA for the 6-Hz tACS. Participants will receive real tACS once daily for two weeks.
PURPOSE:To make possible the measurement with high accuracy by adding an anionic surface active agent to the inside of an antigen-antibody reaction system. CONSTITUTION:The anionic surface active agent such as sulfonate, carboxylate or cholate is added to the inside of the antigen-antibody reaction system in the stage of measuring immunologically physiologically active protein. The amt. of the anionic surface active agent to be added is preferably set at about 0.02-0.1w/w% as the final concn. in the stage of immunological reaction. The measurement of the physiological active protein with high sensitivity is thus made possible.
###  Risk Summary

There is no information regarding the presence of trastuzumab products in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Published data suggest human IgG is present in human milk but does not enter the neonatal and infant circulation in substantial amounts. Trastuzumab was present in the milk of lactating Cynomolgus monkeys but not associated with neonatal toxicity (see Data). Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for Ogivri treatment and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from Ogivri or from the underlying maternal condition. This consideration should also take into account the trastuzumab product wash out period of 7 months [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

###  Data

In lactating cynomolgus monkeys, trastuzumab was present in breast milk at about 0.3% of maternal serum concentrations after pre-(beginning Gestation Day 120) and post-partum (through Post-partum Day 28) doses of 25 mg/kg administered twice weekly (25 times the recommended weekly human dose of 2 mg/kg of trastuzumab products). Infant monkeys with detectable serum levels of trastuzumab did not exhibit any adverse effects on growth or development from birth to 1 month of age.
Seroma is one of the most frequent complications occurring after ILND as it affects nearly one third of these cases. During the past decades, many actions have been tried in the perioperative care to decrease the incidence of these complications, as employing well vascularized bulky flaps to obliterate the dead space and to protect vessels, great saphenous vein sparing, strict bed rest and fibrin sealant application. Realizing the underlying pathology for seroma formation is the key point in its prevention. Thirty-nine patients scheduled to perform Inguinal lymphadenectomy for various causes have been checked for eligibility to be enrolled in this prospective, randomized study. Thirty-two patients have met the inclusion criteria. Inguinal lymphadenectomy has been performed including scarifying saphenous vein. Sartorius muscle transposition flap was routinely performed for protection of femoral vessels, then an 18 French conventional non-suction tube drain was inserted in all patients. All the previous steps were similar in both groups. At this stage, the wound was closed for the control group, while fibrin glue was prepared to be applied to the fibrin glue group in a dose of 2mL for 100 cm2 surface area. Postoperatively, the daily collected drain fluid was measured till the drain was removed when the daily drainage was less than 30 ml. Then the patients were planned to be followed up postoperatively for at least 4 weeks, to detect the possible clinically encountered complications as seroma, wound infection, or skin flap necrosis.

Patients' demographic data and preexisting co-morbidities were recorded. Operative and pathological data regarding defect size, blood transfusion, primary tumor pathology, and number and status of retrieved lymph nodes were collected. The occurrence of post-operative seroma was the primary outcome. Other non serious adverse effect as hematoma, infection, or skin flap necrosis were recorded and compared between the two groups.

The normality of distribution of variables was verified by Kolmogorov- Smirnov test. Chi-square test (Fisher or Monte Carlo) was used for comparisons between groups for categorical variables. Student t-test was used to compare two groups for normally distributed quantitative variables. For not normally distributed quantitative variables, Mann Whitney test was used to compare between two groups. P value was set to be significant if \<0.05.
Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylactic-type reactions, some of which have been life-threatening and fatal, have been reported in patients receiving Ferrlecit in postmarketing experience. Patients may present with shock, clinically significant hypotension, loss of consciousness, or collapse. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity during and after Ferrlecit administration for at least 30 minutes and until clinically stable following completion of the infusion. Only administer Ferrlecit when personnel and therapies are immediately available for the treatment of anaphylaxis and other hypersensitivity reactions  [see Adverse Reactions (6)]. 

In the single-dose, postmarketing safety study one patient experienced a life-threatening hypersensitivity reaction (diaphoresis, nausea, vomiting, severe lower back pain, dyspnea, and wheezing for 20 minutes) following Ferrlecit administration. Among 1,097 patients who received Ferrlecit in this study, there were 9 patients (0.8%) who had an adverse reaction that, in the view of the investigator, precluded further Ferrlecit administration. These included one life-threatening reaction, six allergic reactions (including pruritus, facial flushing, chills, dyspnea/chest pain, and rash), and two other reactions (hypotension and nausea). Another 2 patients experienced (0.2%) allergic reactions not deemed to represent drug intolerance (nausea/malaise and nausea/dizziness) following Ferrlecit administration.
The treatment lasts 2 weeks with 20 rTMS sessions at a rate of 2 sessions per day. Each session lasts 20 minutes with a one hour break between sessions. The application of rTMS will be done on the left temporo-parietal junction.
Osteochondral autograft transplantation (OAT) has been commonly applied in the knee and ankle while the technique has not yet been a popularity in the femoral head. In this article, we present a 28-year-old female patient, who has a history of 1-year-use of glucocorticoid in the treatment of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, with steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH). She underwent surgical hip dislocation, osteochondroplasty, OAT, and internal fixation. Her Harris Hip Score improved from 64 to 82 in 36 months to follow-up. The case is valuable considering that a single, instead of several, 1.5 cm autograft was harvested from the non-bearing part of the same femoral head. This modification dispensed with the need of surgery for harvesting autograft from knee or ankle and reduced the structural vulnerability brought by the multihole donor part of the femoral head.
Participants in this arm will complete two weeks of baseline assessment (during which they will complete questionnaires but not start treatment) and then receive 16 sessions of the Unified Protocol (UP). The UP is an emotion-focused treatment designed to teach participants skills to help manage difficult experiences.
Risk-Summary

In an animal reproduction study, intravenous administration of a human antibody to IL-6 to pregnant monkeys from the onset of organogenesis through delivery caused functional impairment in pregnant animals and in the offspring. Siltuximab and the human antibody to IL-6 crossed the placenta in monkeys (see Data). The limited available information on SYLVANT use during pregnancy is not sufficient to inform a drug-associated risk of major birth defects or miscarriage. Infants born to pregnant women treated with SYLVANT may be at increased risk of infection (see Clinical Considerations). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus.

The estimated background risk for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects is 2% to 4% and of miscarriage is 15% to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies.

Clinical Considerations

Fetal/Neonatal adverse reactions

Monoclonal antibodies are transported across the placenta as pregnancy progresses, with the largest amount transferred during the third trimester. Infants born to pregnant women treated with SYLVANT may be at increased risk of infection. Consider the risks and benefits of administering live or live-attenuated vaccines to infants exposed to SYLVANT in utero [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

Data

Animal Data

In an embryo-fetal development study in cynomolgus monkeys, pregnant animals received intravenous doses of siltuximab of 9.2 or 46 mg/kg/week during gestation days (GD) 20 to 118, which includes the period of organogenesis. Fetuses were evaluated on GD 140, approximately 25 days prior to the natural birth. Exposures at the low and high dose after the 25th administration were approximately 3 and 7 times, respectively, the human exposure based on AUC in patients with MCD at the recommended dose of 11 mg/kg every three weeks. No maternal or fetal structural abnormalities were observed. However, siltuximab crossed the placenta at both doses and when measured on GD 140, fetal serum concentrations of siltuximab were similar to maternal concentrations. In a combined embryofetal and pre- and post-natal development study in cynomolgus monkeys, pregnant animals received intravenous doses of 10 or 50 mg/kg/week of a human antibody to IL-6 from GD 20 to natural delivery (GD 167). The offspring were evaluated up to 7 months after birth for developmental effects. No maternal or infant structural abnormalities were observed; however, globulin levels were decreased in pregnant animals (GD 34 through lactation day 30) and in the offspring (lactation days 30-120) at both doses.
