How to Use the Errin® Tablets Blister Card

  1. The first time you use these pills, take your first pill on the first day of your menstrual period. Pick the Days of the Week Sticker that starts the first day of your period. When you have picked the right sticker, throw away the others and place the sticker on the blister card over the pre-printed days of the week and make sure it lines up with the pills.
  2. Your blister package consists of three parts, the foil pouch, wallet, and a blister card containing 28 individually sealed pills. Note that the pills are arranged in four numbered rows of 7 pills, with the preprinted days of the week printed above them. All 28 pills are "active" birth control pills. Refer to the sample of the blister card below:  


  3. To remove a pill, push down on the pill with your thumb and forefinger so that the pill releases through the back of the blister card. Each day, take one pill. Always go from left to right along the row. Each new row will begin on the same day of the week. 
  4. Take one pill every day for 28 days, whether bleeding or not, until you have taken all the pills. It is important that you take your pill at the same time every day.
  5. After you have taken all 28 pills, begin taking your pills again the next day. Be sure that the calendar day on your new package corresponds with the actual day.

High invasive capacity and acquired tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) resistance of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) cells remain obstacles to prolonging the survival time of patients with advanced KIRC. In the present study, we reported that sine oculis homeobox 1 (SIX1) was upregulated in sunitinib-resistant KIRC cells and metastatic KIRC tissues. Subsequently, we found that SIX1 mediated metastasis and sunitinib resistance via Focal adhesion (FA) signaling, and knockdown of SIX1 enhanced the antitumor efficiency of sunitinib in KIRC. Mechanistically, Integrin subunit beta 1 (ITGB1), an upstream gene of FA signaling, was a direct transcriptional target of SIX1. In addition, we showed that DExH-box helicase 9 (DHX9) was an important mediator for SIX1-induced ITGB1 transcription, and silencing the subunits of SIX1/DHX9 complex significantly reduced transcription of ITGB1. Downregulation of SIX1 attenuated nuclear translocation of DHX9 and abrogated the binding of DHX9 to ITGB1 promoter. Collectively, our results unveiled a new signal axis SIX1/ITGB1/FAK in KIRC and identified a novel therapeutic strategy for metastatic KIRC patients.
Patients should be informed of the potential risks and benefits of ONGLYZA and of alternative modes of therapy. Patients should also be informed about the importance of adherence to dietary instructions, regular physical activity, periodic blood glucose monitoring and A1C testing, recognition and management of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, and assessment of diabetes complications. During periods of stress such as fever, trauma, infection, or surgery, medication requirements may change and patients should be advised to seek medical advice promptly.

Patients should be informed that acute pancreatitis has been reported during postmarketing use of ONGLYZA. Before initiating ONGLYZA, patients should be questioned about other risk factors for pancreatitis, such as a history of pancreatitis, alcoholism, gallstones, or hypertriglyceridemia. Patients should also be informed that persistent severe abdominal pain, sometimes radiating to the back, which may or may not be accompanied by vomiting, is the hallmark symptom of acute pancreatitis. Patients should be instructed to promptly discontinue ONGLYZA and contact their healthcare provider if persistent severe abdominal pain occurs [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

Patients should be informed that serious allergic (hypersensitivity) reactions, such as angioedema, anaphylaxis, and exfoliative skin conditions, have been reported during postmarketing use of ONGLYZA. If symptoms of these allergic reactions (such as rash, skin flaking or peeling, urticaria, swelling of the skin, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, and throat that may cause difficulty in breathing or swallowing) occur, patients must stop taking ONGLYZA and seek medical advice promptly.

Patients should be informed that if they miss a dose of ONGLYZA they should take the next dose as prescribed, unless otherwise instructed by their healthcare provider. Patients should be instructed not to take an extra dose the next day.

Healthcare providers should instruct their patients to read the Medication Guide before starting ONGLYZA therapy and to reread it each time the prescription is renewed. Patients should be instructed to inform their healthcare provider if they develop any unusual symptom or if any existing symptom persists or worsens.

Patients should be informed that ONGLYZA tablets must not be split or cut.
Speech and swallowing abnormalities are important symptoms associated with disorders of the central nervous system, motor neuron disease (such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), myasthenia gravis, and primary muscle conditions. In addition to characterizing the evolution in muscle architecture that could underlie associated orofacial weakness, identifying new ways to measure these abnormalities is critical to the development and testing of novel treatment approaches. As painless, non-invasive, portable technologies, quantitative ultrasonography (QUS) and electrical impedance myography (EIM) could meet the need for objective measures of speech and swallowing dysfunction.

In QUS, acoustic energy is applied to a muscle of interest; the resultant pictorial data are translated into a single value that reflects the health of the imaged muscle. Similarly, in EIM, a high-frequency, low-intensity alternating electrical current is applied to individual muscles, and the resulting voltages measured. Impedance values reflect changes in muscle architecture, including fiber atrophy, inflammation, and the replacement of muscle with fat or connective tissue. Both of these user-friendly methods can provide sensitive indicators of neuromuscular disease status when applied to the limbs. Although they have also been used to evaluate orofacial muscles in healthy volunteers and patients with primary muscle disorders, they have not yet been systematically studied in patients with a range of neurological conditions.

When applied to muscles of the face and tongue, such tools could 1. Improve accuracy of early diagnosis; 2. Allow monitoring of speech and swallowing dysfunction over time; 3. Help individualize care; and 4. Serve as biomarkers in clinical trials. We propose that QUS and EIM will provide convenient, reliable, clinically meaningful surrogate markers of orofacial dysfunction in a variety of neurologic conditions.

This study seeks to include patients aged 18 to 70 years with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) who have undergone at least a second-line systemic treatment, excluding those with prior resistance to Glofitamab. Based on their disease status following the second-line treatment, participants will be categorized into three groups: A, B, and C. Group A will consist of patients who exhibit partial response (PR) or are circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) positive after second-line treatment and are planning to undergo autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) or Glofitamab as a bridging therapy to ASCT. Group B will include patients who achieve complete response (CR) and are ctDNA negative post-second-line treatment, and they will receive ASCT as consolidation therapy. Patients in Group B who achieved CR and were ctDNA negative following second-line treatment will proceed directly to ASCT consolidation therapy. In Group C, patients who exhibited stable disease (SD) or progressive disease (PD) after second-line treatment were reassessed following two cycles of Glofitamab. Those who attained PR subsequently underwent ASCT consolidation therapy, whereas patients achieving CR had the option to either undergo ASCT or continue with Glofitamab maintenance therapy. Patients with SD or PD were excluded from the study. Patients exhibiting SD or PD were excluded from the cohort. Individuals who have successfully undergone autologous transplantation and subsequent maintenance therapy with Glofitamab will be monitored for assessments of efficacy and survival outcomes.
Medication adherence is a critical aspect of achieving optimal health outcomes. Thirty to 50% of patients adhere to long-term medication treatment of chronic diseases. Non adherence has been shown to result in worsening disease, increased healthcare expenditures, complications and even death. Medically underserved communities have higher rates of medication nonadherence and a higher prevalence of chronic conditions and often receive care at Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) which are reporting caring for increasingly complex chronic conditions. Smartphone mobile phone ownership has increased to 76% in low income Americans, but this population has been underrepresented in mobile health intervention studies. This two-group, cluster randomized by site, randomized controlled trial will investigate the effect of a medication adherence smartphone mobile application (app) which provides reminders on patient medication adherence, on medication self-efficacy, medication knowledge and medication social support. Independently, each of these concepts have been shown to support medication adherence. However in the context of delivery by a medication adherence app in a variety of chronic illnesses in a medically underserved population, little is known. It will also explore if those who accessed educational materials within the app report greater medication knowledge than those who do not and if participants who choose to use the additional Medfriend feature report greater medication social support than those who do not. The study will also explore patients' perceptions on the usefulness and satisfaction with the app features.
AIMS: Oncogenic FGFR1/2/3 rearrangements are found in various cancers. Reported cases in head and neck (HN) are mainly squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) with FGFR3::TACC3 fusions, a subset of which also harbour high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV). However, the knowledge of the clinicopathological spectrum of FGFR-rearranged head and neck carcinomas (FHNC) is limited.
METHODS AND RESULTS: A retrospective MSK-fusion clinical sequencing cohort 2016-23 was searched to identify malignant tumours in the HN region harbouring FGFR1/2/3 fusion. FHNC were characterised by histological examination, immunohistochemistry and molecular analysis. Electronic medical records were reviewed. Three FHNC were identified. Two cases (cases 1 and 2) involved sinonasal tract and were high-grade carcinomas with squamous, basaloid, glandular and/or ductal-myoepithelial features. Case 1 arose in a 79-year-old man and harboured FGFR2::KIF1A fusion. Case 2 arose in a 58-year-old man, appeared as HPV-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma (HMSC), and was positive for FGFR2::TACC2 fusion and concurrent high-risk HPV, non-type 16/18. Case 3 was FGFR3::TACC3 fusion-positive keratinising SCCs arising in the parotid of a 60-year-old man. All three cases presented at stage T4. Clinical follow-up was available in two cases; case 1 remained disease-free for 41 months post-treatment and case 3 died of disease 2 months after the diagnosis.
CONCLUSIONS: FHNC include a morphological spectrum of carcinomas with squamous features and may occur in different HN locations, such as parotid gland and the sinonasal tract. Sinonasal cases can harbour FGFR2 rearrangement with or without associated high-risk HPV. Timely recognition of FHNC could help select patients potentially amenable to targeted therapy with FGFR inhibitors. Further studies are needed (1) to determine if FGFR2 rearranged/HPV-positive sinonasal carcinomas are biologically distinct from HMSC, and (2) to elucidate the biological and clinical significance of FGFR2 rearrangement in the context of high-risk HPV.

Elevations of serum triglycerides in excess of 800 mg/dL have been reported in patients treated with Myorisan. Marked elevations of serum triglycerides were reported in approximately 25% of patients receiving Myorisan in clinical trials. In addition, approximately 15% developed a decrease in high-density lipoproteins and about 7% showed an increase in cholesterol levels. In clinical trials, the effects on triglycerides, HDL, and cholesterol were reversible upon cessation of Myorisan therapy. Some patients have been able to reverse triglyceride elevation by reduction in weight, restriction of dietary fat and alcohol, and reduction in dose while continuing Myorisan.5

Blood lipid determinations should be performed before Myorisan is given and then at intervals until the lipid response to Myorisan is established, which usually occurs within 4 weeks. Especially careful consideration must be given to risk/benefit for patients who may be at high risk during Myorisan therapy (patients with diabetes, obesity, increased alcohol intake, lipid metabolism disorder or familial history of lipid metabolism disorder). If Myorisan therapy is instituted, more frequent checks of serum values for lipids and/or blood sugar are recommended (see PRECAUTIONS: Laboratory Tests). 

The cardiovascular consequences of hypertriglyceridemia associated with Myorisan are unknown.

Animal Studies: In rats given 8 or 32 mg/kg/day of isotretinoin (1.3 to 5.3 times the recommended clinical dose of 1 mg/kg/day after normalization for total body surface area) for 18 months or longer, the incidences of focal calcification, fibrosis and inflammation of the myocardium, calcification of coronary, pulmonary and mesenteric arteries, and metastatic calcification of the gastric mucosa were greater than in control rats of similar age. Focal endocardial and myocardial calcifications associated with calcification of the coronary arteries were observed in two dogs after approximately 6 to 7 months of treatment with isotretinoin at a dosage of 60 to 120 mg/kg/day (30 to 60 times the recommended clinical dose of 1 mg/kg/day, respectively, after normalization for total body surface area).
Group 2 will receive plaque index exam and immediately start their three week intervention of watching a control video immediately before brushing twice per day. Plaque index exams will be completed at start, t-10 days, and t-21 days. Parental surveys will be completed at each plaque index exam and 6 weeks after start.
Angioedema: Angioedema, including laryngeal edema may occur at any time during treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, including ZESTORETIC. Patients should be so advised and told to report immediately any signs or symptoms suggesting angioedema (swelling of face, extremities, eyes, lips, tongue, difficulty in swallowing or breathing) and to take no more drug until they have consulted with the prescribing physician.

Symptomatic Hypotension: Patients should be cautioned to report lightheadedness especially during the first few days of therapy. If actual syncope occurs, the patients should be told to discontinue the drug until they have consulted with the prescribing physician.

All patients should be cautioned that excessive perspiration and dehydration may lead to an excessive fall in blood pressure because of reduction in fluid volume. Other causes of volume depletion such as vomiting or diarrhea may also lead to a fall in blood pressure; patients should be advised to consult with their physician.

Hyperkalemia: Patients should be told not to use salt substitutes containing potassium without consulting their physician.

Leukopenia/Neutropenia: Patients should be told to report promptly any indication of infection (e.g., sore throat, fever) which may be a sign of leukopenia/neutropenia.

Pregnancy: Female patients of childbearing age should be told about the consequences of exposure to ZESTORETIC during pregnancy. Discuss treatment options with women planning to become pregnant. Patients should be asked to report pregnancies to their physicians as soon as possible.

Non-melanoma Skin Cancer: Instruct patients taking hydrochlorothiazide to protect skin from the sun and undergo regular skin cancer screening.

NOTE: As with many other drugs, certain advice to patients being treated with ZESTORETIC is warranted. This information is intended to aid in the safe and effective use of this medication. It is not a disclosure of all possible adverse or intended effects.
Preterm babies have to stay in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) because they cannot complete intrauterine development and have difficulty maintaining their vital functions.

In very low birth weight babies, feeding may not be started at the desired time due to medical problems. Total parenteral nutrition should be started in order to prevent growth retardation in the baby who cannot receive adequate enteral nutrition in the first days. The infant who tolerates enteral feeding should also be transitioned to full enteral feeding as soon as possible. Early enteral nutrition and intensive early parenteral nutrition reduce growth retardation and improve the infant's mental developmental scores. The frequent occurrence of feeding intolerance in preterm infants with very low birth weight, especially extremely low birth weight, and the risk of NEC, which is a serious cause of mortality and morbidity in these infants, prevent reaching the desired nutritional goals. Therefore, the optimum initiation time and rate of increase of enteral feeding are still uncertain for these infants. The main purpose of preterm nutrition should be to minimize the problems that may occur in the short and long term. The aim of our study is to examine the effects of the physiotherapy program applied in the NICU on motor performance, behavior, transition time to full enteral feeding and feeding performance in preterm infants.
All patients self-administered stimulation for 60 consecutive minutes each day. Participants self-administered the treatment for a period of 6 weeks, 7 days a week between the hours of 15:00 and 19:00. Assessments took place every 2 weeks during the treatment period.
Radiation therapy (RT) is a common treatment for lung cancer. Still, it can lead to irreversible loss of pulmonary function and a significant reduction in quality of life for one-third of patients. Preexisting comorbidities, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), are frequent in patients with lung cancer and further increase the risk of complications. Because lung stem cells are crucial for the regeneration of lung tissue following injury, we hypothesized that airway stem cells from patients with COPD with lung cancer might contribute to increased radiation sensitivity. We used the air-liquid interface model, a three-dimensional (3D) culture system, to compare the radiation response of primary human airway stem cells from healthy and patients with COPD. We found that COPD-derived airway stem cells, compared to healthy airway stem cell cultures, exhibited disproportionate pathological mucociliary differentiation, aberrant cell cycle checkpoints, residual DNA damage, reduced survival of stem cells and self-renewal, and terminally differentiated cells post-irradiation, which could be reversed by blocking the Notch pathway using small-molecule γ-secretase inhibitors. Our findings shed light on the mechanisms underlying the increased radiation sensitivity of COPD and suggest that airway stem cells reflect part of the pathological remodeling seen in lung tissue from patients with lung cancer receiving thoracic RT.
OBJECTIVE: Painless visible haematuria (VH) necessitates a computed tomography (CT) usually consisting of one unenhanced and two to three contrast enhanced acquisitions to detect urinary tract stones and malignancy. Recently, we demonstrated that a single nephrographic phase (NP) CT sufficed in detecting malignancy in patients with painless VH. Now, we aim to evaluate the diagnostic performance of single NP CT in stone detection and size measurements in the same cohort.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: "A Prospective Trial for Examining Haematuria using Computed Tomography" (PROTEHCT) was a single-center prospective diagnostic study in patients with painless VH between September 2019 and June 2021. All underwent four-phase CT (reference standard) from which a single NP CT (experimental) was extracted. Two randomised readers independently assessed the experimental CT for urinary stones and size. Statistical analysis included diagnostic accuracies and inter-reader agreement (kappa) of experimental CT, and size correlation (Spearman's ρ) between experimental CT and reference standard.
RESULTS: In 308 included patients (median age: 68 years, 250 males), urinary stones (median size 5 mm) were diagnosed in 21%. The per-patient experimental CT sensitivity was 86% (97% for stones ≥ 5 mm), specificity was 98% and accuracy was 96%. The experimental CT sensitivity for detecting kidney stones was 78% (89% for stones ≥ 5 mm), and 100% for bladder and ureteral stones. No missed stone required active treatment. The inter-reader agreement was almost perfect (96%, k = 0.85). The correlation in stone size was very strong (ρ = 0.91).  Conclusions: A single NP CT is sufficient in detecting and measuring urinary stones in patients with painless VH.
