A clinical trial was performed, with 60 individuals, 30 normotensive and 30 hypertensive patients. Participants were of both sex, aged between 18 and 60 years and Body Mass Index (BMI) less than 35 kg / m². Venous blood samples were collected after 12-hour fasting for biochemical measurements (glucose, total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, uric acid, sodium, potassium, urea, creatinine, insulin), and adiponectin , interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-2β (IL-2β), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), leptin, C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 and nitrotyrosine. An anthropometric evaluation was performed with measures of weight, height, waist circumference and cervical circumference. The hemodynamic evaluation was done through a non-invasive monitor. The study participants were divided into 2 different groups: Group A (normotensive) and Group B (hypertensive). The capsules for antioxidant supplementation were of blueberry, cranberry and pomegranate, being one capsule of each a day. Study participants received placebo capsules for 4 weeks and then received the fruit extract capsules (blueberry, cranberry and pomegranate), one capsule a day for 4 weeks. All tests were performed at baseline, after 4 and 8 weeks of intervention. The comparison between groups was performed with the Multiple Comparison Test (ANOVA). The research project was approved by the Ethics Committee for Analysis of Research Projects (CAPPesq) of the Hospital das Clinicas of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Sao Paulo. Participation in the research was voluntary and all participants read and signed the consent form. The risk for the present participant was minimal.
A medical image processing method comprises the following steps. A first medical image of a first patient is acquired under a first examination condition. A second medical image of the first patient is acquired under a second examination condition. A first label corresponding to the first medical image is collected. The first label marks a lesion in the first medical image. By aligning the first medical image with the second medical image, a transformation function between the first medical image and the second medical image is calculated. The transformation function is used to transform the first label to a second label corresponding to the second medical image, thereby transforming a first label relatively easy to assign by medical personnel to locate a lesion in the first medical image to a second label in the second medical image that is relatively difficult to assign manually.
PURPOSE:To effectively improve initial symptoms of a cold, e.g. snivel and throat ache and reduce the time of disease. CONSTITUTION:This therapeutic drug for cold is prepared by blending 1.5 to 5000 pts.wt. antiphlogistic enzyme drug such as serrapeptase with 100 pts.wt. alphareceptor stimulant such as a phenylpropanolamine. It may further contain about 1 to 90000 pts.wt. antipyretic analgesic antiphlogistic such as acetaminophen and, if necessary, one or more components selected from an antihistaminic agent, an antitussive, an expectorant, an antitussive expectorant and a bronchodilator.
Abnormalities in lipid metabolism are a recognized side effect of protease inhibitor (PI) therapy in HIV-infected patients. EFV also is known to increase plasma cholesterol. In an attempt to normalize serum lipids in HIV-infected patients on PIs and/or EFV, Hydroxymethylglutaryl Coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (also known as statins) may be prescribed. Therefore, it is important to study how PIs and EFV affect the PK of concurrently-administered statins. Many of the statins utilize the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 enzyme for metabolism. In addition, atorvastatin and simvastatin have active metabolites, generated via CYP3A4, that contribute to the drugs' lipid-lowering activity and probably to their toxicity. Pravastatin is not metabolized by CYP3A4 but is inactivated by conjugation, non-CYP3A4-induced hydroxylation, and renal excretion. NFV, the most commonly used PI, is an inhibitor of CYP3A4 and an inducer of other CYPs and conjugative pathways. EFV is a mixed CYP3A4 inhibitor and inducer. This study examines the effect of NFV on the PK of pravastatin and the effect of EFV on the PK of simvastatin, atorvastatin, and pravastatin. As EFV with pravastatin is expected to be a common drug combination during the treatment of HIV infection, it should be explored further, even though drug interactions are not expected. To expedite this study, the study population is comprised of healthy control volunteers.

Volunteers are assigned to 1 of 4 groups. Volunteers in Groups A, B, and C take a statin (simvastatin, atorvastatin, or pravastatin, respectively) on Days 0 to 3. After Day 3, the statin is stopped and EFV is begun. Volunteers take EFV until Day 14 and the statin and EFV together from Days 15 to 18. Volunteers in Group D take pravastatin on Days 0 to 3, NFV on Days 4 to 12, and pravastatin and NFV together on Days 13 to 16. Fasting lipid profiles are performed on Days 0, 4, 15, and 19 for Groups A, B, and C, and on Days 0, 3, 13, and 16 for Group D. PK sampling is performed on Days 3, 14, and 18 for Groups A, B, and C (requiring an overnight stay), and on Days 3 and 16 for Group D. Volunteers receive monetary compensation for participation in this study.
Recruitment maneuver will be performed immediately (within 2 minutes) after intubation, consisting of a continuous positive airway pressure of 40 cmH2O over 30 seconds. Blood gases were sampled and blood samples taken for culture before, within 2 minutes, 5 minutes, and 30 minutes after intubation. Haemodynamic and respiratory parameters were continuously recorded throughout the study.
An aqueous douche or enema is disclosed, containing a water-soluble zinc salt at an anti-viral concentration, designed for use shortly before and/or shortly after intercourse. Unlike a lubricant for use during intercourse, this type of rinsing liquid will not contain glycerine or similar lubricating components, and will be designed to not leave behind a film-type residue. However, this type of “pericoital” rinse (i.e., intended for pre-coital or post-coital use) will leave behind positively-charged zinc ions. Due to electrostatic attraction, these Zn ++  ions will cling to negatively-charged canyons and other “binding sites” in proteins that are exposed and accessible on the surfaces of cells and virus particles. The binding of Zn ++  ions to negatively-charged sites in these surface proteins will alter and disrupt the ability of viruses (including herpes and HIV) to bind to and infect human cells. Accordingly, this type of rinse can reduce the risk of infection by sexually transmitted viruses, in a person who is not previously infected. In addition, due to the skin-protective properties of zinc, a pericoital rinse containing a water-soluble zinc salt can help accelerate the healing and closure of microabrasions, lesions, and other breaches or deficits in genital skin or mucous membranes, thereby further decreasing the risk of viral infections following intercourse.
Twenty-five infants diagnosed with Biliary Atresia and undergoing surgery were included in the study (age range 1-3 months). Inclusion criteria were persistent yellow skin or sclera, pale stool (in severe cases, clay-like), and hepatomegaly; increased serum bilirubin (progressively or no decline after increase), increased total bilirubin (TBil) dominated by increased direct bilirubin (DBil) (\>60%); elevated liver enzymes; ultrasound confirmation of poor gallbladder filling and signs of liver fibrosis; with radionuclide imaging confirmation of obstructed biliary excretion. Infants were excluded if they had concomitant cardiovascular or abdominal organ malformations.
Subjects do not receive study medication in this study 204509. Subjects who carried from study TL7116958 treatment group GSK2245035 will undergo NAC with pollen allergen extract.
PURPOSE:To obtain the title sheet excellent in feeling and flexibility, also causing no air gaps between the cuts of the release paper by coating a substrate sheet consisting of a specific resin composition with a tack agent and by laminating thereon a release paper with cuts. CONSTITUTION:A resin composition prepared by incorporating (A) 100 pts.wt. of a polyurethane-polyvinyl chloride copolymer, polyvinyl chloride-based polymer or a blend thereof with (B) 1-20 pts.wt. of a styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene block copolymer, (C) 1-50 pts.wt. of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and (D) 4-15 pts.wt. of a phthalic ester- or aliphatic dibasic acid ester-based plasticizer 300-800 in average molecular weight is formed into a sheet, which is then directly coated with a tack agent comprising a styrene-diene-styrene block copolymer, and thereon, a release paper is laminated, thus giving the objective sheet.
Hepatitis C virus is an important global cause of hepatitis and subsequently cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. These infections may also cause extrahepatic manifestations, including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. These two complications can potentially reduce sustained virologic responses (SVR) in some drug regimens for this infection. Metformin has important biochemical effects that can limit viral replication in cellular cultures and can improve the response to antiviral drug therapy based on ribavirin and interferon. Clinical studies comparing treatment regimens with interferon, ribavirin, metformin with these regimens without metformin have demonstrated that metformin increases viral clearance, establishes higher rates of SVRs, and increases insulin sensitivity. Metformin also reduces the frequency of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients who have had SVRs. Larger treatment trials are needed to determine metformin's short-term and long-term treatment effects in patients with diabetes using newer antiviral drugs. In particular, if metformin reduces the frequency of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, this would significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with this infection.
Investigators will conduct a pilot study with 30 patients to evaluate the feasibility and limited efficacy of the REDD-CAT social service screening and referral intervention to inform the design of a fully-powered trial. The study will determine the feasibility of delivering the REDD-CAT intervention in a clinical, point-of-care context to inform the design and implementation strategy for a fully powered clinical trial. It is not the purpose of this pilot clinical trial to determine sample size for a larger, fully-powered trial, as investigators already have data from prior readmissions research supporting sample size and power estimates using readmission rates as a primary outcome measure. After obtaining informed consent from a participant and gathering baseline data, the study research assistant (RA) will send a flag in the electronic medical record (EMR) to notify the nurse care manager that a patient has enrolled in the REDD-CAT pilot. The nurse care manager will then incorporate the administration of the REDD-CAT to the patient as part of standard care discharge planning. He or she will utilize the REDD-CAT results report as a guideline for generating appropriate referrals to address unmet social needs identified. To inform secondary measure selection for a future larger study, the RA will administer to enrolled patients a number of standardized measures, including the PHQ-9, GAD-7, Ways of Coping Questionnaire, and Diabetes Distress Scale. All baseline measures will be re-administered at 30-day follow-up to patients via the telephone. Data on hospitalizations and ED visits during the 30-day period post-discharge will be obtained from patients' medical records, and all data gathered will be stored in a REDCap electronic database.
Placebo followed by Secukinumab. 3 months of placebo followed by 3 months of Secukinumab at a dose of 300 mg with injections administered once weekly at week 12 and at weeks 13, 14, 15, and 16 and then every 4 weeks for 3 months of period.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia among humans, with its incidence increasing significantly with age. Despite the high frequency of AF in clinical practice, its etiology and management remain elusive. To develop effective treatment strategies, it is imperative to comprehend the underlying mechanisms of AF; therefore, the establishment of animal models of AF is vital to explore its pathogenesis. While spontaneous AF is rare in most animal species, several large animal models, particularly those of pigs, dogs, and horses, have proven as invaluable in recent years in advancing our knowledge of AF pathogenesis and developing novel therapeutic options. This review aims to provide a comprehensive discussion of various animal models of AF, with an emphasis on the unique features of each model and its utility in AF research and treatment. The data summarized in this review provide valuable insights into the mechanisms of AF and can be used to evaluate the efficacy and safety of novel therapeutic interventions.
Controlled Substance 

Phendimetrazine tartrate tablets are defined by the Drug Enforcement Administration as a Schedule III controlled substance.

Dependence 

Phendimetrazine tartrate is related chemically and pharmacologically to the amphetamines. Amphetamines and related stimulant drugs have been extensively abused, and the possibility of abuse of phendimetrazine should be kept in mind when evaluating the desirability of including a drug as part of a weight reduction program. Abuse of amphetamines and related drugs may be associated with intense psychological dependence and severe social dysfunction. There are reports of patients who have increased the dosage to many times that recommended. Abrupt cessation following prolonged high dosage administration results in extreme fatigue and mental depression; changes are also noted on the sleep EEG. Manifestations of chronic intoxication with anorectic drugs include severe dermatoses, marked insomnia, irritability, hyperactivity and personality changes. The most severe manifestation of chronic intoxications is psychosis, often clinically indistinguishable from schizophrenia.
Portal hypertension (PHT) is a syndrome caused by systemic and portal hemodynamic disturbances with the progression of cirrhosis. However, the exact mechanisms regulating angiogenesis-related responses in PHT remain unclear. Cediranib is a potent inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinases, exhibiting a greater affinity for VEGFR-2. Liver cirrhosis was induced by common bile duct ligation (BDL) in Sprague-Dawley rats. Sham-operated rats were controls. BDL and sham rats were randomly allocated to receive Cediranib or vehicle after BDL. On the 28th day, portal hypertension related parameters were surveyed. Cediranib treatment could significantly reduce the portal pressure (PP) in BDL rats, while it did not affect the mean arterial pressure (MAP) in sham groups and BDL groups. Cediranib treatment could significantly affect the stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), cardiac index (CI), systemic vascular resistance (SVR), superior mesenteric artery (SMA) flow and SMA resistance in BDL groups and BDL with Cediranib groups. Cediranib treatment could improve the mesenteric vascular remodeling and contractility. Cediranib treatment significantly reduced mesenteric vascular density. And phospho-VEGFR-2 was significantly downregulated by Cediranib. On the other hand, phospho-endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthases (phospho-eNOS) expressions were upregulated. Cediranib not only improved splanchnic hemodynamics, extrahepatic vascular remodeling and vasodilation, but also alleviated intrahepatic fibrosis and collagen deposition significantly. Cediranib treatment could reduce intrahepatic angiogenesis between BDL-vehicle and BDL-Cediranib rats. In conclusion, Cediranib could improve extrahepatic hyperdynamic circulation by inhibiting extrahepatic angiogenesis through inhibition of the VEGFR-2 signaling pathway, portal collateral circulation formation, as well as eNOS-mediated vasodilatation and vascular remodeling, and at the same time, Cediranib improved intrahepatic fibrogenesis and angiogenesis, which together alleviate cirrhotic PHT syndrome.
###  Risk Summary

Based on animal studies and the mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)], everolimus tablets for oral suspension can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are limited case reports of AFINITOR use in pregnant women; however, these reports are not sufficient to inform about risks of birth defects or miscarriage. In animal studies, everolimus caused embryo-fetal toxicities in rats when administered during the period of organogenesis at maternal exposures that were lower than human exposures at the recommended dose of AFINITOR 10 mg orally once daily (see Data). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to the fetus. 

In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies, respectively.

###  Data

#### Animal Data 

In animal reproductive studies, oral administration of everolimus to female rats before mating and through organogenesis induced embryo-fetal toxicities, including increased resorption, pre-implantation and post-implantation loss, decreased numbers of live fetuses, malformation (e.g., sternal cleft), and retarded skeletal development. These effects occurred in the absence of maternal toxicities. Embryo-fetal toxicities in rats occurred at doses ≥ 0.1 mg/kg (0.6 mg/m2) with resulting exposures of approximately 4% of the human exposure at the recommended dose of AFINITOR 10 mg orally once daily based on area under the curve (AUC). In rabbits, embryo-toxicity evident as an increase in resorptions occurred at an oral dose of 0.8 mg/kg (9.6 mg/m2), approximately 1.6 times the recommended dose of AFINITOR 10 mg orally once daily or the median dose administered to patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC)-associated subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA), and 1.3 times the median dose administered to patients with TSC-associated partial-onset seizures based on BSA. The effect in rabbits occurred in the presence of maternal toxicities. 

In a pre- and post-natal development study in rats, animals were dosed from implantation through lactation. At the dose of 0.1 mg/kg (0.6 mg/m2), there were no adverse effects on delivery and lactation or signs of maternal toxicity; however, there were reductions in body weight (up to 9% reduction from the control) and in survival of offspring (~5% died or missing). There were no drug-related effects on the developmental parameters (morphological development, motor activity, learning, or fertility assessment) in the offspring.
Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of rare genetic diseases characterized by the occurrence of blisters and erosions due to skin fragility. There are 4 different subgroups, based on the location of the skin cleavage area. The most frequent subgroup is the simplex form, consisting predominantly of the localized form (localized epidermolysis bullosa simplex: LEBS). The incidence of LEBS was estimated at between 1/318.000 and 1/35.000. The disease starts early in infancy by the occurrence of blisters and erosions located on soles, secondary to frictions during the walk. The phenomenon is worsened by heat and sudation. LEBS is due to mutations in keratin genes. Life expectancy in LEBS is normal but the quality of life is significantly impaired due to permanent skin pain and limitation of everyday activities (walking, sports). There is no effective or curative treatment. Patients must limit the frictions, protect the skin and use plasters in case of skin lesions.

Botulinic toxin has an agreement for the treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis and has been shown to be also effective on palms and soles. The efficacy of botulinic toxin in plantar lesions of LEBS has been reported in the literature (one case report and a short retrospective series of 6 patients) but there is no proper study.
For Aim 1, the investigators will conduct a one-year cluster randomized controlled trial of a Vaccine Acceptance Intervention versus Usual Care with randomization at the level of VA Medical Center (VAMC). Usual Care will consist of all national and local initiatives to promote COVID-19 vaccine acceptance in Veterans such as vaccine mandates, mobile clinics, outreach calls, etc. The Implementation Facilitation team will include a VISN-level external facilitator, VAMC-level internal facilitators, and clinic-level site champions to support PACT staff, Coaches and Peers in implementing the Vaccine Acceptance Intervention with unvaccinated Veterans as well as in lowering barriers to vaccine access at intervention sites. For Aim 2, the investigators will identify a diverse sample of 450 Veterans across VAMCs in VISNs 16 and 21, who have had primary care visits at Intervention and Usual Care sites, and who have either recently received (N=360) or have not received (N=90) COVID-19 vaccination. The investigators will over sample recently vaccinated Veterans to describe the impact of the Vaccine Acceptance Intervention on Veterans' decisions to accept COVID-19 vaccination in addition to over-sampling women, ethnic/racial minorities, rural and younger Veterans, and those with mental health conditions. Follow-up qualitative interviews will be conducted in a subsample to better understand factors related to recent vaccine acceptance and persistent vaccine hesitancy. Finally, for Aim 3, the investigators will conduct process and summative interviews with VA staff and providers from VAMC sites in VISNs 16 and 21 with high and low vaccination rates) to learn which implementation strategies were most and least effective.
Massage can be applied to all age periods. Before starting the massage application in babies, some preparations are made. Ambient temperature (24-26 OC) is adjusted, it is regulated so that there is no airflow, dim light, and low noise levels are ensured. 1-2 towels, a soft cushion or massage table, baby oil lotion, clean diapers, and clean clothes are prepared for the massage. There is no standard time interval for the application of massage. It can be done at least one hour after the baby's feeding, at any time of the day when he is not stressed and sleeps. Massage application time is 15-30 minutes depending on the baby's reactions may vary between.
PURPOSE: A food composition for prevention and treatment of type B hepatitis containing gallocatechin gallate, epgallocatechin gallate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an effective ingredient is provided. It strongly inhibits the formation of Hepatitis B Virus E Antigen which maintains hepatitis in chronic state and possesses low cytotoxicity and thus can be effectively used in prevention and inhibition of hepatitis. CONSTITUTION: The food composition for prevention and treatment of type B hepatitis contains gallocatechin gallate of the formula 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or epgallocatechin gallate of the formula 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. The daily dosage level of the compound is in the range of 0.1 to 500mg in single or divided doses. During the manufacture of foods or beverages, 0.0001 to 10% by weight of gallocatechin gallate or epgallocatechin gallate is added. For an example, 0.24 to 0.64% by weight of gallocatechin gallate or epgallocatechin gallate is mixed with 50 to 60% by weight of sugar, 39.26 to 49.66% by weight of corn syrup and 0.1% by weight of orange flavor to make candy.
