Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive disease characterized by severe lung fibrosis and a poor prognosis. Although the biomolecules related to IPF have been extensively studied, molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis and their association with serum biomarkers and clinical findings have not been fully elucidated. We constructed a Bayesian network using multimodal data consisting of a proteome dataset from serum extracellular vesicles, laboratory examinations, and clinical findings from 206 patients with IPF and 36 controls. Differential protein expression analysis was also performed by edgeR and incorporated into the constructed network. We have successfully visualized the relationship between biomolecules and clinical findings with this approach. The IPF-specific network included modules associated with TGF-β signaling (TGFB1 and LRC32), fibrosis-related (A2MG and PZP), myofibroblast and inflammation (LRP1 and ITIH4), complement-related (SAA1 and SAA2), as well as serum markers, and clinical symptoms (KL-6, SP-D and fine crackles). Notably, it identified SAA2 associated with lymphocyte counts and PSPB connected with the serum markers KL-6 and SP-D, along with fine crackles as clinical manifestations. These results contribute to the elucidation of the pathogenesis of IPF and potential therapeutic targets.
NTX-001 (Product) is a surgical product that consists of an active solution (drug), an isolation chamber medical device (chamber or device) and two (2) other sterile solutions.

NTX-001 has been developed as a surgical product to be used in conjunction with standard suture neurorrhaphy of a severed nerve. Use of NTX-001 is intended to safely accelerate the often slow and diminished return of function in repaired nerves. It often takes months and/or years to determine if function will be restored. By that point, restoration is often incomplete and can result in lifelong motor and/or sensory deficits. By reconnecting (PEG-fusion) a substantial number of axons within a severed nerve, the degeneration-regeneration cycle and subsequent atrophy may be reduced or even prevented for those axons and their targets, respectively. NTX-001 (PEG-fusion) has the potential to avoid the consequences of protracted denervation of distal target tissues by eliminating the period of total denervation thus reducing the time to stable recovery and providing greater innervation to affected tissues.
It is widely appreciated that almost all proteins and other biological macromolecular in vivo exist, at least transiently, as components of structural and functional complexes. This transient interaction in simple component solutions have been studied using well established daylight light scattering (LS) method which reflects molecular oscillation (7-12). Protein association, protein unfolding, protein aggregation and cellular crowding are known to affect the normal function of cellular system (13-19). In many cases, the resulting small changes in normal protein-protein intra- and intermolecular interactions are thought to lead to a variety of human diseases (20, 21). Based on these and the acquired knowledge on LS, the cutting edge technology, PIMS has been developed. PIMS is a label free technology that is able to study protein-protein and protein-solvent interactions in multi-component solutions. It provides individual real time dynamic fingerprint of total physiological macromolecular assemblies in a tissue in presence and absence of exogenous molecules (drug or drug candidate, peptide or protein).

This technology is based on dynamic molecular resonance of proteins and macromolecules. Cellular extracts in physiological conditions are frozen at -37°C. Macromolecular spectra are registered as the temperature within the sample raises from -37 to 37°C. This provides, within the organ of interest, dynamic fingerprint of an individual entire macromolecular assemblies. The present technology can therefore rapidly and specifically determine the response of a tissue or cell when an exogenous molecule is administrated. It reflects patient molecular capacity to respond to the drugs effect and allows to identifying different subpopulations within a group in response to a specific treatment. It highlights the responders from non-responders to a given treatment.

The extraction and use of residual opioids from transdermal dosage forms can be reduced by placement and fixation of used dosage forms onto a surface. The used dosage form can be fixed to the surface such that it cannot be removed without at least partially destroying the matrix containing the opioid, or such that the matrix containing the opioid is rendered at least partially inaccessible to opioid extraction methods. The disposal system for one or more opioid-containing transdermal delivery forms comprises at least one disposal surface for receiving the transdermal delivery form. The at least one disposal surface can comprise one or more structures for fixing a transdermal delivery form to the at least one surface. Alternatively, the transdermal delivery form comprises one or more structures for permanently fixing the transdermal delivery form to the surface. The disposal system can also be used for preventing or reducing diversion of opioids from transdermal delivery forms.

BACKGROUND: The principal fetal energy source is glucose provided by the placental transfer of maternal glucose. However, the placenta's glucose consumption exhibits considerable variation. Hexokinase is the first and one of the rate-limiting enzymes of glycolysis that phosphorylates glucose to glucose-6-phosphate. The role of placental hexokinase activity in human placental glucose metabolism is unknown.
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to test the hypothesis that placental hexokinase activity is related to maternal body mass index, placental glucose uptake and consumption, and birthweight.
STUDY DESIGN: Overall, 67 healthy pregnant participants at term were included in this study at Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway. Placental hexokinase activity was measured by using a colorimetric assay. The mass of glucose taken up by the uteroplacental unit and the fetus was obtained by measuring arteriovenous glucose differences combined with Doppler assessment of uterine and umbilical blood flow. Blood samples were obtained from the maternal radial artery, uterine vein, and umbilical artery and vein. The uteroplacental glucose consumption constituted the difference between uteroplacental and fetal glucose uptakes. The Spearman rank correlation was performed for statistical analyses to study the correlation of placental hexokinase activity (milliunit per milligram of protein) with prepregnancy body mass index, maternal glucose and insulin, birthweight, uteroplacental glucose uptake and consumption, and fetal glucose uptake (micromole per minute). Partial rank correlation analysis was performed when controlling for hours of fasting or placental weight.
RESULTS: Hexokinase activity was detectable in all placental tissue samples. The mean activity was 19.6 (standard deviation, 4.64) mU/mg protein. Placental hexokinase activity correlated positively with prepregnancy body mass index (Spearman rho=0.33; P=.006). On controlling for hours of fasting, hexokinase activity showed positive correlations with both maternal glucose (r=0.30; P=.01) and insulin (r=0.28; P=.02). Hexokinase activity was positively correlated with uteroplacental glucose uptake (Spearman rho=0.31; P=.01) and consumption (Spearman rho=0.28; P=.02). Hexokinase activity did not correlate with fetal glucose uptake. On controlling for placental weight, hexokinase activity showed a positive correlation with birthweight (r=0.31; P=.01).
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that placental hexokinase, being crucial for uteroplacental retention of glucose for disposition, is related to both maternal body mass index and birthweight independent of placental weight. Placental hexokinase may play a central role in the relationship between maternal glucose dysregulation and fetal growth. Thus, the current study supports the need to develop clinically useful tools to assess the metabolic properties of the placenta.
Previous studies on Alzheimer's disease-type cognitive impairment (ADCI) and subcortical vascular cognitive impairment (SVCI) has rarely explored spatiotemporal heterogeneity. This study aims to identify distinct spatiotemporal cortical atrophy patterns in ADCI and SVCI. 1,338 participants (713 ADCI, 208 SVCI, and 417 cognitively unimpaired elders) underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), amyloid positron emission tomography, and neuropsychological tests. Using MRI, this study measures cortical thickness in five brain regions (medial temporal, inferior temporal, posterior medial parietal, lateral parietal, and frontal areas) and utilizes the Subtype and Stage Inference (SuStaIn) model to predict the most probable subtype and stage for each participant. SuStaIn identifies two distinct cortical thinning patterns in ADCI (medial temporal: 65.8%, diffuse: 34.2%) and SVCI (frontotemporal: 47.1%, parietal: 52.9%) patients. The medial temporal subtype of ADCI shows a faster decline in attention, visuospatial, visual memory, and frontal/executive domains than the diffuse subtype (p-value < 0.01). However, there are no significant differences in longitudinal cognitive outcomes between the two subtypes of SVCI. Our study provides valuable insights into the distinct spatiotemporal patterns of cortical thinning in patients with ADCI and SVCI, suggesting the potential for individualized therapeutic and preventive strategies to improve clinical outcomes.
DMD is a rare, serious, debilitating, and ultimately fatal, disease for which there is an urgent need to develop safe and effective therapies. In order to efficiently meet this urgency and the needs of the subject community, the study evaluates the efficacy and safety of AMONDYS 45, EXONDYS 51, VYONDYS 53 administration over approximately 1 year in DMD subjects with duplication mutations amenable to treatment by exon 45, 51 or exon 53 skipping. Skipping of a single copy of the duplicated exon is expected to result in a wild-type (WT) DMD transcript allowing the expression of a WT, full length dystrophin protein. Successful skipping of a single copy of the duplicated exon in in vitro and in vivo models has been reported in the literature. AMONDYS 45, EXONDYS 51, VYONDYS 53 have the potential to be disease-modifying treatments for boys with DMD mutations amenable to exon 45, 51 and exon 53 skipping, respectively.

The totality of the non-clinical data with these PMOs as well as AVI-4225 (targeting exon 23) and EXONDYS 51 suggests that PMOs are well tolerated in the non-clinical setting. Moreover, treatment with EXONDYS 51(at 30 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg) has been well-tolerated by boys with DMD deletion mutations amenable to skipping exon 51. The relatively low expected risk for subjects exposed to AMONDYS 45, EXONDYS 51, VYONDYS 53 and the urgent medical need for a treatment for this subject population support the conclusion that the potential benefits of exposing subjects to AMONDYS 45, EXONDYS 51, VYONDYS 53 outweigh the potential risks.
Participants who have received maribavir treatment for the approved indication after marketing authorization (de novo participants) and before marketing authorization (legacy participants) under expanded access type of program or compassionate use in the real-world setting. Data will be collected prospectively and/or retrospectively from the medical records during this observational period of 16 weeks.
This is Phase 1/2, open-label, multi-center study consisting of 2 parts to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BMN 351 at escalating doses in participants with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) with genetic mutations amenable to exon 51 skipping.

Participants will be assigned to one of three groups called cohorts (Cohort 1, 2 or 3). Cohort 1 participants are further divided into Cohort 1A and Cohort 1B. In Cohort 1A, 3 participants will receive increasing doses once every 2 weeks with a visit to assess safety measures collected the week after dosing prior to escalating doses of BMN 351. In part 2, the participants in cohort 1A will transition to once weekly dosing. The participants in Cohort 1B, 2, and 3 will initiate low, medium, and high doses of BMN 351 and continue once weekly dosing at that same dose. The study will enroll approximately 18 participants.
This is Phase 2 of a two-phase pilot project to build and study a texting program for patients at Denver Health who have persistent asthma. The overall goal of the program is to provide educational support for asthma care between clinic visits and to survey for evidence of poorly controlled asthma, which would prompt clinic recall. Phase 1 used a focus group/interview methodology to inform Phase 2 and allow Phase 2 to be more patient-centered. Based on results of focus groups/interviews, the investigators will conduct a three-arm trial among 13- to 19-year-olds and a two-arm trial among 20- to 40-year-olds. For the 13- to 19-year-old group, a 'usual care' group will be compared to two intervention groups: 1) a subject group receiving text messages about asthma care and 2) a group of subjects and their 'significant other', such as a parent, who will also receive the text messages. Overall, Phase 1 findings suggested the 20- to 40-year-old group was more reluctant to involve a significant other and therefore for this group a 'usual care' arm will be compared to an arm where only the patient receives the text messages, but not a significant other. Other features built into Phase 2 upon recommendation from the focus group/interview phase include a midpoint survey and tailoring the amount of texting a patient receives based on the level of asthma control elicited by administration of the validated tool, the Asthma Control Test (ACT).

Evidence-based medicine is the commanding philosophy of patient care in the field of orthopaedic surgery, and analysis of clinical research is facilitated by instruments and scales developed for assessing methodologic quality and validity of conclusions. In contrast, little consideration has been given to developing metrics to assess the quality and validity of orthopaedic ex vivo and laboratory research. This is easier said than done because these studies may be heterogeneous and complex in design, and methodologic details may not be intuitive to (non-engineer) readers. The recently described Biomechanics Objective Basic Science Quality Assessment Tool (BOBQAT) represents a reliable means to assess cadaveric biomechanical studies. The BOBQAT emphasizes essential study elements including a clinically relevant, answerable purpose; detailed description of the specimens studied; thorough description of surgical technique; and careful consideration of loading conditions including clinically relevant cyclic loading. The BOBQAT provides a logical recipe for the design of future studies, a mechanism of quality assessment for systematic reviews, and a framework for readers to assess biomechanical research consistent with the ethos of evidence-based medicine.
PURPOSE:The titled promoting agent containing multhiomycin as an active component. CONSTITUTION:The objective growth-promoting agent for pig is produced by using multhiomycin (stable to the heat-treatment at 100 deg.C for 5min in the form of aqueous solution at 2-5 pH; slightly acidic yellow acicular crystal; no optical activity is observed as 1% solution) as an active compound. Multhiomycin is separated from the culture product obtained by culturing a multhiomycin- producing strain belonging to Streptomyces genus [e.g. Streptomyces sp 8446 CC1 (FERM-P 3284)] in a medium containing a proper nutrient source by deep culture, etc. It is administered orally to pig by adding to the feed for pig or mixing to drinking water in the form of wettable powder. The amount of the agent is preverably 0.5-100g per 1ton of the feed or 0.5-50mg per 1l of the drinking water.
Patients in the control group will receive the same intervention, delayed 2 weeks after the intervention group. During those initial 2 weeks they will act as a control.
The Investigators hypothesize that upregulation of skeletal muscle NO-cGMP mediated responses through phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibition by sildenafil or tadalafil causes an acute anabolic response of skeletal muscle protein synthesis. NO is well-known to elicit vasodilation through stimulation of cGMP signaling, and NO-mediated changes in muscle perfusion may influence both skeletal muscle anabolism and perceptual fatigue. To measure skeletal muscle protein synthesis, we will infuse a stable isotope tracer of phenylalanine and measure its incorporation into skeletal muscle proteins following a dose of sildenafil, tadalafil, or placebo. The Investigators will also determine whether differences exist between men and women in response to PDE inhibition. As skeletal muscle NO-cGMP signaling has been implicated in fatigue responses, we will assess the acute effect of sildenafil and tadalafil on fatigue. Fatigue can be manifested both as a performance deficit at a local level (e.g., a reduced ability of skeletal muscle to produce power or force) as well as a subjective experience of lacking physical or mental energy. Accordingly, we will use more than one means (skeletal muscle performance, fatigue questionnaires, accelerometers) to study fatigue. The Investigators hypothesize that sildenafil or tadalafil will acutely reduce exercise-associated fatigability and skeletal muscle fatigue development
Multinational epidemics of emerging infectious diseases are increasingly common, due to anthropogenic pressure on ecosystems and the growing connectivity of human populations. Early and efficient vaccination can contain outbreaks and prevent mass mortality, but optimal vaccine stockpiling strategies are dependent on pathogen characteristics, reservoir ecology, and epidemic dynamics. Here, we model major regional outbreaks of Nipah virus and Middle East respiratory syndrome, and use these to develop a generalized framework for estimating vaccine stockpile needs based on spillover geography, spatially-heterogeneous healthcare capacity and spatially-distributed human mobility networks. Because outbreak sizes were highly skewed, we found that most outbreaks were readily contained (median stockpile estimate for MERS-CoV: 2,089 doses; Nipah: 1,882 doses), but the maximum estimated stockpile need in a highly unlikely large outbreak scenario was 2-3 orders of magnitude higher (MERS-CoV: ∼87,000 doses; Nipah ∼ 1.1 million doses). Sensitivity analysis revealed that stockpile needs were more dependent on basic epidemiological parameters (i.e., death and recovery rate) and healthcare availability than any uncertainty related to vaccine efficacy or deployment strategy. Our results highlight the value of descriptive epidemiology for real-world modeling applications, and suggest that stockpile allocation should consider ecological, epidemiological, and social dimensions of risk.
