PURPOSE: Ableism is a pervasive set of beliefs that regard nondisabled bodies and minds as ideal and necessary to live a full life. Ableism manifests for people with aphasia as stigma and discrimination based on their language ability. We assert that ableism contributes to decreased quality of life for people with aphasia and should be actively challenged and disrupted by clinicians and researchers in the field.
METHOD: We applied the Health Stigma and Discrimination Framework (HSDF) to outline how stigma and discrimination are perpetuated against people with aphasia on the basis of language ability and their downstream health and social consequences. We presented this framework at the Clinical Aphasiology Conference in 2023 and share themes and challenges that arose from this discussion and from our ongoing learning.
DISCUSSION: Applying the HSDF to aphasia outlined potential sequelae of ableism. We identified preliminary foci of future initiatives aimed at challenging ableist beliefs and practices and means to monitor the effectiveness of such interventions. Furthermore, we draw attention to the seeming tension between anti-ableist practices and traditional language rehabilitation goals. We assert that this tension may be a catalyst for fruitful discourse on how clinicians and researchers can resist ableism while honoring the lived experiences of people with aphasia and their goals for language rehabilitation. These discussions may be facilitated by existing models in disability studies (e.g., the political/relational model).
CONCLUSIONS: Clinicians and researchers are well positioned to challenge ableism and minimize the resultant health and social impacts for people living with aphasia. Anti-ableist practices are not antithetical to aphasia rehabilitation and can be thoughtfully integrated into rehabilitation practices and discourse.
OBJECTIVES: To operationalize a new definition for bladder health, we examined the distribution and impact of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), along with risk factors, among men in the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study.
METHODS: LUTS were defined by American Urologic Association Symptom Index (AUASI) scores and impact on quality of life (QoL). Separate questions assessed urinary incontinence (UI) and postvoid dribbling. We performed cluster analyses using AUASI scores, with and without urine incontinence and postvoid dribbling, and impact collected in 2010-11. We performed analyses to evaluate sociodemographic and cardiovascular risk factors between clusters.
RESULTS: Among CARDIA men (mean age: 50.0, SD = 3.6; range: 42-56 years) with complete LUTS data (n = 929), we identified and compared four clusters: men who reported no or very mild symptoms and no impact on well-being (bladder health, n = 696, 75%), men with moderate symptoms and moderate impact on well-being (moderate symptoms/impact, n = 84, 9%), men with high symptoms and high impact on well-being (severe symptoms/impact, n = 117, 13%), and a separate group that reported moderate symptoms and UI with a high impact on well-being (UI + moderate symptoms/severe impact, n = 32, 3%). Exploration of the groupings showed a large percentage of postvoid dribbling across groups (overall 69%). Sociodemographic and cardiovascular risk factors were not associated with symptom/impact groups.
CONCLUSIONS: Bladder health clustered into four categories. A majority of middle-aged men in the community showed no or mild bladder symptoms without impact on QoL. Postvoid dribbling is pervasive but did not cluster with a specific LUTS or impact category.

To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of dicloxacillin sodium capsules and other antibacterial drugs, dicloxacillin sodium capsules should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.

Dicloxacillin is indicated in the treatment of infections caused by penicillinase-producing staphylococci which have demonstrated susceptibility to the drug. Cultures and susceptibility tests should be performed initially to determine the causative organisms and their sensitivity to the drug (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY – Susceptibility Plate Testing) .

Dicloxacillin may be used to initiate therapy in suspected cases of resistant staphylococcal infections prior to the availability of laboratory test results. The penicillinase-resistant penicillins should not be used in infections caused by organisms susceptible to penicillin G. If the susceptibility tests indicate that the infection is due to an organism other than a resistant staphylococcus, therapy should not be continued with a penicillinase-resistant penicillin.
Safety and effectiveness of INVEGA in the treatment of schizophrenia were evaluated in 150 adolescent subjects 12–17 years of age with schizophrenia who received INVEGA in the dose range of 1.5 mg to 12 mg/day in a 6-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. ®®

Safety and effectiveness of INVEGA for the treatment of schizophrenia in patients < 12 years of age have not been established. Safety and effectiveness of INVEGA for the treatment of schizoaffective disorder in patients < 18 years of age have not been studied. ®®

In a study in which juvenile rats were treated with oral paliperidone from days 24 to 73 of age, a reversible impairment of performance in a test of learning and memory was seen, in females only, with a no-effect dose of 0.63 mg/kg/day, which produced plasma levels (AUC) of paliperidone similar to those in adolescents. No other consistent effects on neurobehavioral or reproductive development were seen up to the highest dose tested (2.5 mg/kg/day), which produced plasma levels of paliperidone 2–3 times those in adolescents.

Juvenile dogs were treated for 40 weeks with oral risperidone, which is extensively metabolized to paliperidone in animals and humans, at doses of 0.31, 1.25, or 5 mg/kg/day. Decreased bone length and density were seen with a no-effect dose of 0.31 mg/kg/day, which produced plasma levels (AUC) of risperidone plus paliperidone which were similar to those in children and adolescents receiving the maximum recommended human dose of risperidone. In addition, a delay in sexual maturation was seen at all doses in both males and females. The above effects showed little or no reversibility in females after a 12-week drug-free recovery period.

The long-term effects of INVEGA on growth and sexual maturation have not been fully evaluated in children and adolescents. ®
Tailored regimen of IV PCA according to pain sensitivity The regimen of IV PCA will be determined according to preoperative pain sensitivity of patients. Pressure pain threshold will be measured preoperatively in these patients using pressure algometer. Patients with low pain threshold will use high dose IV PCA containing fentanyl 1500mcg, while patients with high pain threshold will use low dose IV PCA containing fentanyl 1000mcg.
A proportion of people with epilepsy continue to have seizures despite all conventional treatment options. The classical ketogenic diet and its variants have been shown to help some of these people. However, these diets require significant medical and dietician supervision,and is frequently not well tolerated. There is a need to develop other diet therapy that is easier to administer and more acceptable to the patient. This trial undertaken in adult overweight UCLH outpatients examines the effect of an intermittent fasting diet on seizures. Subjects may consume their normal diet for 5 days a week. On 2 days in a week, they consume only 25% of their daily calorie requirement. Subjects will continue on the diet for 6 months. Intermittent fasting has been shown in animal studies to activate a number of signalling pathways which are thought to reduce seizure thresholds. Has intermittent fasting in humans might be expected to reduce seizures.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia, with stroke being its most detrimental comorbidity. The exact mechanism of AF related stroke (AFS) still needs to be explored. In this study, we integrated proteomics and metabolomics platform to explore disordered plasma proteins and metabolites between AF patients and AFS patients. There were 22 up-regulated and 31 down-regulated differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in AFS plasma samples. Moreover, 63 up-regulated and 51 down-regulated differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) were discovered in AFS plasma samples. We integrated proteomics and metabolomics based on the topological interactions of DEPs and DEMs, which yielded revealed several related pathways such as arachidonic acid metabolism, serotonergic synapse, purine metabolism, tyrosine metabolism and steroid hormone biosynthesis. We then performed a machine learning model to identify potential biomarkers of stroke in AF. Finally, we selected 6 proteins and 6 metabolites as candidate biomarkers for predicting stroke in AF by random forest, the area under the curve being 0.976. In conclusion, this study provides new perspectives for understanding the progressive mechanisms of AF related stroke and discovering innovative biomarkers for determining the prognosis of stroke in AF.
Depression remains among the nation's top 10 chronic illnesses, costing over $80 billion annually. Depression has been called the "Common Cold" of mental illness, but one with serious risk of morbidity and mortality. There are now many evidence-based practices for the treatment of depression, but unfortunately these practices remain largely unavailable to clients receiving services in community mental health centers. Measurement Based Care (MBC) is a relatively simple evidence-based intervention framework. MBC, by definition, is the practice of using symptom measurement to inform mental health care. Physicians who routinely measure the patient's blood pressure when the treatment target is high blood pressure demonstrate the medical corollary of MBC. When MBC is used in the treatment of depressed adults, it has been shown to improve outcomes by identifying clients who are not making progress and reducing the likelihood that clients will deteriorate in treatment. However, despite the demonstrated effectiveness of MBC, the majority of community mental health counselors (i.e., clinicians) do not regularly assess target problem symptoms to guide their work over the course of treatment. To our knowledge, no studies to date have focused on the process of implementing MBC in community mental health settings. The long-term goal of this research project is to provide generalizable and practical recommendations about implementation approaches that promote MBC use and fidelity in community mental health centers. Specifically, this study will test a standardized versus a tailored approach to implementing MBC in one of the nation's largest not-for-profit providers of behavioral health services. Although touted as superior, tailored implementations have rarely been compared to standardized approaches. Moreover, recent research has demonstrated an apparent need to adapt evidence-based practices to fit the specific context in which they are being implemented, particularly if they are to be sustained. This proposal reflects a movement in the field of implementation science in which planned adaptations are being tested and compared to standardized versions. The proposed research is a three-phase, mixed methods (quantitative/qualitative) study to investigate the effect of these two different approaches to MBC implementation on both clinician-level (e.g., MBC fidelity) and client-level (depression symptom change) outcomes. We will focus on contextual factors (e.g., attitudes, resources, process, etc.) that may influence the implementation process with the goal of identifying a generalizable and practical way of bringing MBC to community mental health centers treating depressed adults.
With the declining birth rates and aging societies in developed countries, the average age of the working population is increasing. Older people tend to get tired more easily, so prevention of fatigue is important to improve the quality of life for older workers. This study aimed to assess the mechanism of fatigue in older people, especially focused on relation between dysfunction of erythrocyte and fatigue. Total power (TP), which is the value of autonomic nerve activity, was measured as a value of fatigue and significantly decreased in workers with aging. As properties of senescent erythrocytes, the erythrocyte sedimentation rate and damaged erythrocytes population increased with aging and correlated with TP. These results suggested that the accumulation of damaged erythrocytes contributes to fatigue. Recent studies revealed that senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), a phenomenon in which senescent cells secrete a variety of cytokines, affected hematopoiesis in bone marrow. We analyzed the effects of SASP factors on erythropoiesis and found that Interleukin -1α (IL-1α) suppressed erythrocyte differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells in vitro. We also showed that IL-1α levels in human blood and saliva increase with aging, suggesting the possibility that IL-1α level in saliva can be used to predict the decline in hematopoietic function.
There are no data on the use of carisoprodol during human pregnancy. Animal studies indicate that carisoprodol crosses the placenta and results in adverse effects on fetal growth and postnatal survival. The primary metabolite of carisoprodol, meprobamate, is an approved anxiolytic. Retrospective, post-marketing studies do not show a consistent association between maternal use of meprobamate and an increased risk for particular congenital malformations.

Teratogenic effects: Animal studies have not adequately evaluated the teratogenic effects of carisoprodol. There was no increase in the incidence of congenital malformations noted in reproductive studies in rats, rabbits, and mice treated with meprobamate. Retrospective, post-marketing studies of meprobamate during human pregnancy were equivocal for demonstrating an increased risk of congenital malformations following first trimester exposure. Across studies that indicated an increased risk, the types of malformations were inconsistent. 

Nonteratogenic effects: In animal studies, carisoprodol reduced fetal weights, postnatal weight gain, and postnatal survival at maternal doses equivalent to 1 to 1.5 times the human dose (based on a body surface area comparison). Rats exposed to meprobamate in-utero showed behavioral alterations that persisted into adulthood. For children exposed to meprobamate in-utero, one study found no adverse effects on mental or motor development or IQ scores. carisoprodol should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the risk to the fetus.
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.

In clinical trials involving 209 subjects, the incidence of adverse reactions associated with the use of mometasone furoate topical solution (lotion) was 3%. Reported reactions included acneiform reaction, 2; burning, 4; and itching, 1. In an irritation/sensitization study involving 156 normal subjects, the incidence of folliculitis was 3% (4 subjects).

The following adverse reactions were reported to be possibly or probably related to treatment with mometasone furoate topical solution (lotion) during a clinical trial in 14% of 65 pediatric subjects 6 months to 2 years of age: decreased glucocorticoid levels, 4; paresthesia, 2; dry mouth,1; an unspecified endocrine disorder, 1; pruritus, 1; and an unspecified skin disorder, 1. The following signs of skin atrophy were also observed among 65 subjects treated with mometasone furoate topical solution (lotion) in a clinical trial: shininess, 4; telangiectasia, 2; loss of elasticity, 2; and loss of normal skin markings, 3.

The recommended dose of OMNIPAQUE 350 at a concentration of 350 mg Iodine/mL for adult oral pass-thru examination of the gastrointestinal tract is 50 mL to 100 mL. In a Phase I study, 150 mL of OMNIPAQUE 350 was administered orally to 11 healthy male subjects. The incidence of diarrhea was 91% (10 of 11) and abdominal cramping was 27% (3 of 11). Despite all of these events being mild and transient the occurrences were more than double that seen at the recommended doses. It is apparent from this finding that larger volumes of hypertonic contrast media, like OMNIPAQUE, increase the osmotic load in the bowel which may result in greater fluid shifts.
INTRODUCTION: The critical early stages of infection and innate immune responses to porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) at the intestinal epithelium remain underexplored due to the limitations of traditional cell culture and animal models. This study aims to establish a porcine enteroid culture model to investigate potential differences in susceptibility to infection across segments of the porcine small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, and ileum).
METHODS: Intestinal crypt cells from nursery pigs were cultured in Matrigel to differentiate into porcine enteroid monolayer cultures (PEMCs). Following characterization, PEMCs were enzymatically dissociated and subcultured on transwell inserts (PETCs) for apical surface exposure and infection studies. Characterization of region-specific PEMCs and PETCs included assessment of morphology, proliferation, viability, and cellular phenotyping via immunohistochemistry/immunocytochemistry and gene expression analysis. Subsequently, PETCs were inoculated with 105 TCID50 (50% tissue culture infectious dose)/mL of a high pathogenic PEDV non-S INDEL strain and incubated for 24 h. Infection outcomes were assessed by cytopathic effect, PEDV N protein expression (immunofluorescence assay, IFA), and PEDV N-gene detection (quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, RT-qPCR).
RESULTS: No significant morphological and phenotypical differences were observed among PEMCs and PETCs across intestinal regions, resembling the porcine intestinal epithelium. Although PETCs established from different segments of the small intestine were susceptible to PEDV infection, jejunum-derived PETCs exhibited higher PEDV replication, confirmed by IFA and RT-qPCR.
DISCUSSION: This segment-specific enteroid culture model provides a reliable platform for virological studies, offering a controlled environment that overcomes the limitations of in vivo and traditional cell culture methods. Standardizing culture conditions and characterizing the model are essential for advancing enteroid-based infection models.
Atopic dermatitis (AD), a chronic inflammatory skin disease, is exacerbated by obesity, yet the precise linking mechanism remains elusive. This study aimed to elucidate how obesity amplifies AD symptoms. We studied skin samples from three mouse groups: sham control, AD, and high-fat (HF) + AD. The HF + AD mice exhibited more severe AD symptoms than the AD or sham control mice. Skin lipidome analysis revealed noteworthy changes in arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism, including increased expression of pla2g4, a key enzyme in AA generation. Genes for phospholipid transport (Scarb1) and acyltransferase utilizing AA as the acyl donor (Agpat3) were upregulated in HF + AD skin. Associations were observed between AA-containing phospholipids and skin lipids containing AA and its metabolites. Furthermore, imbalanced phospholipid metabolism was identified in the HF + AD mice, marked by excessive activation of the AA and phosphatidic acid (PA)-mediated pathway. This imbalance featured increased expression of Plcb1, Plcg1, and Dgk involved in PA generation, along with a decrease in genes converting PA into diglycerol (DG) and CDP-DG (Lpin1 and cds1). This investigation revealed imbalanced phospholipid metabolism in the skin of HF + AD mice, contributing to the heightened inflammatory response observed in HF + AD, shedding light on potential mechanisms linking obesity to the exacerbation of AD symptoms.
Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) hyperactivation has been established as an oncogenic driver in a variety of human cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, despite massive efforts, no specific therapy is currently available to target NRF2 hyperactivation. Here, we identify peptidylprolyl isomerase A (PPIA) is required for NRF2 protein stability. Ablation of PPIA promotes NRF2 protein degradation and blocks NRF2-driven growth in NSCLC cells. Mechanistically, PPIA physically binds to NRF2 and blocks the access of ubiquitin/Kelch Like ECH Associated Protein 1 (KEAP1) to NRF2, thus preventing ubiquitin-mediated degradation. Our X-ray co-crystal structure reveals that PPIA directly interacts with a NRF2 interdomain linker via a trans-proline 174-harboring hydrophobic sequence. We further demonstrate that an FDA-approved drug, cyclosporin A (CsA), impairs the interaction of NRF2 with PPIA, inducing NRF2 ubiquitination and degradation. Interestingly, CsA interrupts glutamine metabolism mediated by the NRF2/KLF5/SLC1A5 pathway, consequently suppressing the growth of NRF2-hyperactivated NSCLC cells. CsA and a glutaminase inhibitor combination therapy significantly retard tumor progression in NSCLC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models with NRF2 hyperactivation. Our study demonstrates that targeting NRF2 protein stability is an actionable therapeutic approach to treat NRF2-hyperactivated NSCLC.
The first group of participants will include 6 participants whom will receive 10mg of 89Zr-DFO-MSTP2109A. A second group of 6 participants may receive twice the amount of antibody to determine if this results in better pictures of your tumors. Once we determine whether 10 mg or the larger 20 mg dose of 89Zr-DFOMSTP2109A is best and well tolerated we will use that amount for future participants in Group 2.
Prospective, single-center single blind randomized controlled trial. Patients electively admitted for laparoscopic hysterectomy will be approached for requirement. After obtaining a written informed consent, patients will be randomly assigned either to the study group (Remifentanil group) or to the control group (Fentanyl group) in a 1:1 ratio. A blocked randomization scheme will be created using a computer-generated list of random numbers.
