The present invention provides a method and equipment for low-temperature latent heat type water extraction of plant essence. The pre-extracted plant is put in a feed vessel, the water is added to the bottom side of the plant, and then the water is heated. When the water temperature rises to a predetermined temperature, the air in the feed vessel is pumped out by a vacuum pump to reduce the pressure. When the pressure in the feed vessel drops to a predetermined value, the water will be rapidly vaporized to form water vapor, and the expanding water vapor in the plant cell wall will generate a wall-breaking effect to quickly release the essence ingredient. After the water in the cell is completely evaporated, the vacuum pump is turned off. The external pressure causes water molecules to invade the plant cells and fill the plant cells with water. At this time, the heating action is restarted. When the water temperature rises to a predetermined temperature, the above steps are repeated several times to continuously fill the plant cells with water. Finally, when a large amount of water vaporizes in the plant cells, the plant cells can expand and burst and the essence ingredient in the plant cells can be released. Thereafter, the steam for mixing the water with the plant essence is rapidly cooled by a condensing unit. Finally, the plant essence is collected in a collecting tank.

Use of drugs that act on the renin-angiotensin system during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy reduces fetal renal function and increases fetal and neonatal morbidity and death. Resulting oligohydramnios can be associated with fetal lung hypoplasia and skeletal deformations. Potential neonatal adverse effects include skull hypoplasia, anuria, hypotension, renal failure, and death. When pregnancy is detected, discontinue Lotrel as soon as possible. These adverse outcomes are usually associated with use of these drugs in the second and third trimester of pregnancy. Most epidemiologic studies examining fetal abnormalities after exposure to antihypertensive use in the first trimester have not distinguished drugs affecting the renin-angiotensin system from other antihypertensive agents. Appropriate management of maternal hypertension during pregnancy is important to optimize outcomes for both mother and fetus.

In the unusual case that there is no appropriate alternative to therapy with drugs affecting the renin-angiotensin system for a particular patient, apprise the mother of the potential risk to the fetus. Perform serial ultrasound examinations to assess the intra-amniotic environment. If oligohydramnios is observed, discontinue Lotrel, unless it is considered lifesaving for the mother. Fetal testing may be appropriate, based on the week of pregnancy. Patients and physicians should be aware, however, that oligohydramnios may not appear until after the fetus has sustained irreversible injury. Closely observe infants with histories of in utero exposure to Lotrel for hypotension, oliguria, and hyperkalemia [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)].
A delivery method and product for enhancing the bioavailability of an active ingredient by prolonged relatively constant release. The method involves mixing with subsequent granulation and compression of a mixture to result in a solid core tablet. The composition includes a biologically active material matrixed or otherwise contained within a hydrophobic phase with the latter absorbed onto a sorbent. The sorbent and hydrophobic phase are in a ratio of between 1:10 and 10:1. The mixture further includes a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactant. The composition, once tableted into a solid core provides spontaneous release of the biologically active material over a predetermined time frame for substantially constant bioavailability.
Histamine, an auto-reactive substance and mediator of inflammation, is synthesized from histidine through the action of histidine decarboxylase (HDC). It primarily acts on histamine receptors in the central nervous system (CNS). Increasing evidence suggests that histamine and its receptors play a crucial role in neuroinflammation, thereby modulating the pathology of neurodegenerative diseases. Recent studies have demonstrated that histamine regulates the phenotypic switching of microglia and astrocytes, inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and alleviates inflammatory responses. In the CNS, our research group has also found that histamine and its receptors are involved in regulating inflammatory responses and play a central role in ameliorating chronic neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we will discuss the role of histamine and its receptors in neuroinflammation associated with neurodegenerative diseases, potentially providing a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of chronic neuroinflammation-related neurodegenerative diseases in clinical settings.
Inflammatory diseases compromise a clinically common and diverse group of conditions, causing detrimental effects on body functions. Gasdermins (GSDM) are pore-forming proteins, playing pivotal roles in modulating inflammation. Belonging to the GSDM family, gasdermin D (GSDMD) actively mediates the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases by mechanistically regulating different forms of cell death, particularly pyroptosis, and cytokine release, in an inflammasome-dependent manner. Aberrant activation of GSDMD in different types of cells, such as immune cells, cardiovascular cells, pancreatic cells and hepatocytes, critically contributes to the persistent inflammation in different tissues and organs. The contributory role of GSDMD has been implicated in diabetes mellitus, liver diseases, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Clinically, alterations in GSDMD levels are potentially indicative to the occurrence and severity of diseases. GSDMD inhibition might represent an attractive therapeutic direction to counteract the progression of inflammatory diseases, whereas a number of GSDMD inhibitors have been shown to restrain GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis through different mechanisms. This review discusses the current understanding and future perspectives on the role of GSDMD in the development of inflammatory diseases, as well as the clinical insights of GSDMD alterations, and therapeutic potential of GSDMD inhibitors against inflammatory diseases. Further investigation on the comprehensive role of GSDM shall deepen our understanding towards inflammation, opening up more diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities against inflammatory diseases.
Pregnancy Category C. In animal reproduction studies, ropinirole has been shown to have adverse effects on embryo-fetal development, including teratogenic effects. Ropinirole given to pregnant rats during organogenesis (20 mg/kg on gestation days 6 and 7 followed by 20, 60, 90, 120, or 150 mg/kg on gestation days 8 through 15) resulted in decreased fetal body weight at 60 mg/kg/day, increased fetal death at 90 mg/kg/day, and digital malformations at 150 mg/kg/day (24, 36, and 60 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis, respectively). The combined administration of ropinirole (10 mg/kg/day, 8 times the maximum recommended human dose on a mg/m2 basis) and L-dopa (250 mg/kg/day) to pregnant rabbits during organogenesis produced a greater incidence and severity of fetal malformations (primarily digit defects) than were seen in the offspring of rabbits treated with L-dopa alone. No indication of an effect on development of the conceptus was observed in rabbits when a maternally toxic dose of ropinirole was administered alone (20 mg/kg/day, 16 times the maximum recommended human dose on a mg/m2 basis). In a perinatal-postnatal study in rats, 10 mg/kg/day (4 times the maximum recommended human dose on a mg/m2 basis) of ropinirole impaired growth and development of nursing offspring and altered neurological development of female offspring. 

There are no adequate and well-controlled studies using ropinirole hydrochloride in pregnant women. Ropinirole hydrochloride should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.
A dressing pad for use as a 'dry' dressing or as poultice when wet. The dressing pad has front and rear major surfaces whereof the front surface in a skin contacting surface when the dressing pad is applied, the dressing pad comprises (i) an inner absorbent cushioning pad having a poulticing action when wet, (ii) an outer fabric envelope completely enclosing the cushioning pad, and (iii) a thermally insulating membrane of a liquid impermeable material provided between the rear side of the pad and the envelope. The dressing pad may be used in combination with a bag capable of holding liquid (e.g. of plastics material) marked with at least one graduation line which indicates the level to which the bag should be flled with liquid for 'wetting' the dressing pad. This ensures that the required amount of liquid has been retained within the 'wet' dressing. The aforementioned bag may also be used in combination with any form of poultice to ensure the required level of liquid retention.
Cervical cancer ranks as the fourth most common and fatal cancer among women worldwide. Studies have demonstrated a strong association between purinergic platelet signaling and tumor progression in this type of cancer. The literature shows that neoplastic cells, when in the bloodstream, secrete adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine nucleotide diphosphate (ADP) that act on their corresponding platelet P2Y and P2X receptors. The interaction of these nucleotides with their receptors results in platelet activation and degranulation, ensuing several consequences, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet-derived growth factor, matrix metalloproteinases, ADP, and ATP. These molecules play essential roles in angiogenesis and tumor metastasis in cervical cancer. Several purinergic receptors are found in endothelial cells. Their activation, especially P2Y2, by the nucleotides released by platelets can induce relaxation of the endothelial barrier and consequent extravasation of tumor cells, promoting the development of metastases. Cancer cells that enter the bloodstream during the metastatic process are also subject to high shear stress and immune surveillance. In this context, activated platelets bind to circulating tumor cells and protect them against shear stress and the host's immune system, especially against natural killer cells, facilitating their spread throughout the body. Furthermore, activation of the P2Y12 receptor present on the platelet surface promotes the release of VEGF, the main inducer of angiogenesis in cervical cancer, in addition to increasing the concentration of several other pro-angiogenic molecules. Therefore, this review will address the role of platelet purinergic signaling in tumor progression of cervical cancer and propose possible therapeutic targets.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), caused by hyperoxia exposure, is the most common complication affecting preterm infants. The C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 17 (CXCL17) belongs to the chemokine family that plays important roles in various processes, but the function in BPD is unknown. Elevated serum CXCL17 levels were observed in human premature infants with hyperoxia-induced lung injury, suggesting that CXCL17 might be involved in BPD. To further validate our speculation, studies were conducted in a hyperoxia-induced lung injury mouse model and primary murine alveolar epithelial cells Type II (T2AEC) cells exposed to hyperoxia. RT-qPCR and western blot were used to validate CXCL17 expression in newborn mice. Hyperoxia exposure-induced lung injury was determined by assessing the lung wet-weight/dry-weight ratio and histological changes. Oxidative stress and inflammatory factors were examined by ELISA assay and RT-qPCR. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was evaluated by DHE staining. Apoptosis was assessed by TUNEL staining and western blot. The results showed that hyperoxia exposure increased CXCL17 levels in newborn mice pups. Hyperoxia exposure increased lung wet-weight/dry-weight ratio, increased alveolar diameter and enlarged alveoli, and reduced surfactant protein C expression. However, recombinant CXCL17 (rCXCL17) treatment alleviated hyperoxia-induced lung injury. rCXCL17 treatment inhibited hyperoxia-induced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in neonatal mice. These results were further verified in T2AEC cells. Additionally, rCXCL17 treatment activated the AKT pathway, which is a protective pathway in BPD. Collectively, rCXCL17 alleviates hyperoxia-induced lung injury in neonatal mice by activating the AKT pathway, indicating that CXCL17 may be a promising target for BPD therapy.
Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute self-limited vasculitis and occurs almost exclusively in childhood. It predominantly affects medium-sized arteries, most commonly the coronary arteries. Although the use of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) has obviously decreased the incidence of coronary arteries (CA) abnormalities, still a part of KD children occur CA abnormalities, even medium, large or giant aneurysms. The coronary aneurysms can develop to thrombus and arterial stenosis, which may cause severe cardiac events, for example, myocardial infarction. It is the main cause of disability and death in KD children. Now KD has been the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children.

Some studies found that ongoing vascular chronic inflammation and oxidative stress persisted in the long-term KD vasculopathy. Endothelial dysfunction, increased stiffness, and intima-media thickening have been noted in both affected coronary arteries and systemic arteries. Statins (hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme-A reductase inhibitors) not only are a kind of drug lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, but also have been reported to have potentially beneficial pleiotropic effects on inflammation, endothelial function, oxidative stress, platelet aggregation, coagulation, and fibrinolysis. They have been the cornerstone of therapy for the primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular events in adults. In recently years, statins have been considered to be used in KD children with coronary aneurysms. Several short-term small studies in such patients treated with statins have shown reductions in high-sensitivity CRP, improved endothelial function and statins' safety in children. The American Heart Association (AHA) scientific statement on KD published in 2017 suggests that empirical treatment with low-dose statin may be considered for KD patients with past or current aneurysms, regardless of age or sex.

However, the current clinical data about the use of statins in KD children is still very rare. The published researches mainly focused on the endothelial function of peripheral arteries but the effects of statins on CAs and cardiac events have not been included. Therefore, more studies are needed to conform statins' feasibility and safety in children and its clinical application value.

In this study, we will recruit KD children complicated with severe CA abnormalities. These children will be given statins for one year besides other routine treatments. The coronary assessments, clinical and laboratory indexes will be followed up to study the effects of statins on long-term chronic inflammation, CA abnormalities and clinical cardiac events. At the same time, the clinical and laboratory indexes correlated to the side-effects will be monitored regularly to investigate the feasibility and safety of statins in KD children.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a B-cell neoplasm with a heterogeneous clinical behavior. In 5-10% of patients the disease transforms into a diffuse large-B cell lymphoma known as Richter transformation (RT), which is associated with dismal prognosis. Here, we aimed to establish patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models to study the molecular features and evolution of CLL and RT. We generated two PDXs by injecting CLL (PDX12) and RT (PDX19) cells into immunocompromised NSG mice. Both PDXs were morphologically and phenotypically similar to RT. Whole-genome sequencing analysis at different time points of the PDX evolution revealed a genomic landscape similar to RT tumors from both patients and uncovered an unprecedented RT subclonal heterogeneity and clonal evolution during PDX generation. In PDX12, the transformed cells expanded from a very small subclone already present at the CLL stage. Transcriptomic analysis of PDXs showed a high oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and low B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling similar to the RT in the patients. IACS-010759, an OXPHOS inhibitor, reduced proliferation, and circumvented resistance to venetoclax. In summary, we have generated new RT-PDX models, one of them from CLL cells that mimicked the evolution of CLL to RT uncovering intrinsic features of RT cells of therapeutical value.
With advances in HIV treatment, the life expectancy of persons with HIV (PWH) has improved and complications associated with antiretroviral (ARV) medications have become more apparent. Among them, weight gain and obesity, because of their associated complications, is one of the more concerning ones. Certain drug regimens are more adipogenic than others, but not a lot is known about molecular mechanisms responsible for these differences. Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression and regulate a wide array of biological processes. In recent years miRNAs have been studied in a number of diseases for diagnostic and even therapeutic purposes. There are studies showing differences in miRNA profiles in obese vs non-obese non-HIV population, as well as certain miRNAs as biomarkers of response to weight-loss diets. In PWH, there are studies that looked at the effect of HIV infection on the miRNA profile and how a particular miRNA profile is predictive of ARV resistance. But there are no studies that specifically looked at how ARV medications alter the miRNA profile and how (in terms of miRNA profiles) one combination is more adipogenic than the other.
A patient data management (“PDM”) system is disclosed herein. The PDM can provide doctors with an efficient and accurate means to extract medical diagnostic and treatment information from multi-perspective time based medical data. Further, the PDM provides a means to reduce computer processing time when training a neural network using medical data. In one aspect, a PDM system includes a preprocessor. The preprocessor receives patient data from a computer interface. In one non-limiting example, the preprocessor uses machine learning to extract patterns (“features”) from the data. The preprocessor formats the extracted features into a multidimensional tensor. In one non-limiting example, the PDM system includes a convolutional neural network (“CNN”). The preprocessor provides the tensor to the CNN. The CNN processes the tensor and extracts diagnostic and treatment information.
