Lantus (HOE901-U100, insulin glargine 100 U/mL) SC injection once daily in morning or evening for 12 months on top of mealtime insulin analogue. Dose titration seeking fasting plasma glucose 4.4-5.6 mmol/L (80 - 100 mg/dL).
The study design is a single-dose, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence crossover with a washout period of one to two weeks. During each study session, healthy male subjects will be administered a single oral dose of 80 mg gliclazide (one BF-Gliclazide Tablet 80 mg or one Diamicron 80 mg Tablet) after an overnight fast of approximately 10 hours. 20% glucose will be given orally to each subject at 2 h after drug administration to minimize the risk of hypoglycaemia. Venous blood samples will be collected at pre-dose (0 h) and up to 72 hours post-dose. The plasma concentrations of gliclazide will be determined by a validated assay. The non-compartmental method will be used to analyze the plasma concentration-time data and calculate the main pharmacokinetic parameters such as Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-last, AUC0-inf and T1/2. ANOVA will be conducted on logarithmically transformed Cmax, AUC0-last and AUC0-inf. The two one-sided tests will be used to calculate the 90% confidence intervals for the mean difference in AUC0-last, AUC0-inf and Cmax, and to assess the bioequivalence of the two products.
Up to two doses of Sensitizing DPCP Ointment will be applied and subjects who exhibit a sensitization response will enter the Treatment Phase. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Sensitizing DPCP Ointment will be measured in a subset of subjects. For PK, blood will be collected prior to application of the Sensitizing DPCP Ointment and again at 1, 2, and 24 hours after application.
Healthcare workers (HCWs) commonly present high levels of anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress, acute disorder and burnout, both during and after viral outbreaks. Although educational and multifaceted interventions might mitigate the development of mental health problems, the certainty on the evidence is very low. The aim of this double-blinded randomized clinical trial is to examine the impact of a mobile phone based intervention to prevent and manage mental health problems in healthcare workers at the frontline against COVID-19 in Spain.

The trial will include HCWs having provided healthcare to patients with COVID19 in a healthcare centre (any setting) in Spain during the viral outbreak in Spain. Professionals from any medical speciality and role (doctors, nurses, nurse assistance, etc.) with access to a smartphone will be included. The investigators will collect expressions of interest via dissemination of the study through social media and key stakeholders (hospital managers, scientific societies and professional colleges). A team of psychologists will contact (via telephone) potential participants to confirm they meet the eligibility criteria (described above), obtain signed consent (audio-recorded), and carry out a psychological (pre-intervention) evaluation. The participants will then be randomly allocated to receive a fully functional App (full intervention) or an App with brief generic recommendations about mental health (control intervention). A post-intervention psychological assessment will be undertaken after two weeks. The primary outcome will be symptomatology of depression, anxiety or stress. Secondary outcomes will include posttraumatic stress, burnout, insomnia, and self-efficacy. After the two weeks follow-up, all participants allocated to the control intervention will be offered the full intervention.
Bilateral acute depigmentation of the iris and bilateral acute iris transillumination (BAIT) are similar clinical entities. The former causes acute-onset depigmentation of the iris stroma without transillumination, whereas the latter causes depigmentation of the iris pigment epithelium with transillumination. The etiopathogenesis of these conditions is not yet fully understood, but the proposed causes include the use of systemic antibiotics (especially moxifloxacin) and viral triggers. We present a case series of five female patients with a mean age of 41 (32-45) years, all of whom suffered acute onset of bilateral pain and redness of the eyes after moxifloxacin use (oral or topical). It is important for ophthalmologists to be aware of the two forms of iris depigmentation since this case series suggests that SARS-CoV-2 or its empirical treatment with moxifloxacin may trigger iris depigmentation. If this is the case, clinicians will likely see increased incidences of bilateral acute depigmentation of the iris and bilateral acute iris transillumination during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
OBJECTIVES: The weather is frequently blamed for changes in musculoskeletal health behaviour and adverse events. However, despite the frequency with which this phenomenon is endorsed, past research is largely conflicting. This meta-analysis has reviewed, appraised and summarised case-crossover studies assessing the transient risk of musculoskeletal health events associated with weather parameters (e.g. temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, and precipitation).
METHODS: A meta-analysis of case-crossover studies was conducted. Two reviewers independently searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, and PsycINFO from inception to 10/09/2023. Published studies that employed a case-crossover design to evaluate the risk of musculoskeletal health events (e.g. symptoms, hospitalisation) associated with weather parameters were included. Primary outcome was pain (new episodes of pain or flares). Quality of included studies was assessed based on selection bias, exposure assessment, confounding, and outcome assessment. Pooling of results was conducted using random effects models and separately performed for each condition and weather factor. Heterogeneity among included studies was assessed using I2 measures.
FINDINGS: Of the 1,107 studies identified in the search, 11 were included (15,315 participants), providing data on 28,010 events (102,536 control periods), for seven musculoskeletal conditions. Pooled analyses showed no association between relative humidity, air pressure, temperature, or precipitation and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis, knee pain or low back pain. High temperatures combined with low humidity were associated with increased pain, redness, and joint swelling in people with gout (Odds Ratio: 2.04; 95 % Confidence Interval: 1.26 to 3.30).
INTERPRETATION: Despite anecdotal reports from patients, changes in weather factors do not seem to be risk factors for rheumatoid arthritis, knee, hip, or low back pain, but may have a significant influence in gout disease.
OBJECTIVE: To determine associations between presenting symptoms and oropharyngeal dysphagia diagnoses, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) diagnoses, and treatment with acid suppression medication in infants with brief resolved unexplained event (BRUE).
STUDY DESIGN: We performed a prospective cohort study of infants with BRUE to review presenting symptoms and their potential impact on testing and treatment. Videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS) results and explanatory diagnoses were obtained from medical record review; acid suppression use was determined by parental survey. Binary and multivariable logistic regression models were used to evaluate associations between presenting symptoms and obtaining VFSS, VFSS results, GERD diagnoses, and acid suppression medication.
RESULTS: Presenting symptoms were varied in 157 subjects enrolled at 51.0 ± 5.3 days of age, with many symptoms that may be related to GERD or dysphagia. Of these, 28% underwent VFSS with 71% abnormal. Overall, 42% had their BRUE attributed to GERD, and 33% were treated with acid suppression during follow-up. Presenting symptoms were significantly associated with the decision to obtain VFSS but not with abnormal VFSS results. Presenting symptoms were also associated with provision of GERD explanatory diagnoses. Both presenting symptoms and GERD explanatory diagnoses were associated with acid suppression use (aOR 2.3, 95% CI 1.03-5.3, P = .04).
CONCLUSIONS: Presenting symptoms may play a role in clinicians' decisions on which BRUE patients undergo VFSS but are unreliable to make a diagnosis of oropharyngeal dysphagia. Presenting symptoms may also influence assignment of GERD explanatory diagnoses that is associated with increased acid suppression medication use.

Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) and NK/T-cell lymphoma are uncommon diseases that are prevalent in Asia. They are associated with poor prognosis when treated with conventional chemotherapeutic regimes. Their long term disease-free survivals are dismal with only 10-30% of patients surviving long term. More intensive regimens including high dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant have been tried as primary induction treatment, but have not been shown to be beneficial. Given the rarity of PTCL and NK/T-cell lymphoma, much of the literature consists of studies with small sample size and anecdotal case reports. Therefore, no consensus exists on the best therapeutic strategy for either newly diagnosed or relapsed disease. The failure of conventional chemotherapy in this regard suggests that novel therapies including epigenetic approaches and proteasome inhibition should be explored.

Preclinical data of bortezomib and histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDIs) in T-cell and NK/T-cell lymphoma cell lines are encouraging. Bortezomib and HDIs have also separately demonstrated activity in T and NK/T-cell lymphomas in phase II studies, leading to their separate developments in phase III studies. Demonstration of synergism in these 2 agents, in part due to their dependence on overlapping pathways, suggests that they should be explored as a combination, especially when treating a disease with a very unfavourable outcome. The purpose of this phase II study is to assess the efficacy of orally-administered panobinostat, a potent class I/II pan-deacetylase inhibitor with intravenous bortezomib in this patient population.
Eligible patients will be approached for the study by the PI or Sub-I in the pre-operative area on their day of surgery. The anesthesiology investigator will speak with the patient about the study behind a closed drape and the patient will have adequate time to consider the consent and ask questions regarding risk factors associated with each type of block. Once consented, the patient will be randomized by computer generated random number to one of the two treatment groups. Once assigned the treatment allocation, only the clinician administering the block will be unblinded to the randomization outcome. If randomized to the LP block, an anesthesiologist on the Acute Interventional Perioperative Pain Service (AIPPS) will administer the block with this approach: Patient will be positioned in lateral decubitus position with side to be blocked facing upwards. Midline will be identified by palpating the spinous process. Intercristal line will be drawn connecting iliac crests. The point of needle insertion will be 4 cm lateral to the intersection of both lines. The transverse process will first contact with a finder needle. Subsequently an 18 gauge 10 cm insulated needle will be used and advanced until it contacted the transverse process. Needle will then be redirected cephalad or caudad and advanced 1 cm, until the quadriceps femoris twitch is obtained. Local anesthetic will then be injected after confirming a motor response between 0.3-0.5 milli amperes.If randomized to the QL3 block, an anesthesiologist on the Acute Interventional Perioperative Pain Service (AIPPS) will administer the block with this approach:Patient will be placed in a lateral position with the side to be blocked facing up. A low frequency transducer will be used to identify three layers of abdominal musculature, probe will be then moved posteriorly till the transverse abdominus aponeurosis is visualized, the QL muscle is then identified by tracing the aponeurosis posteriorly. The transducer is then moved more posteriorly to visualize the shadow of transverse process and the origin of QL muscle. Psoas muscle is then identified lying anterior to the QL muscle. A 22 gauge 8 cm is inserted in plane posterior to the probe and advanced intramuscularly through the QL to interfacial plane between QL and psoas major and local anesthetic is deposited. For both treatment groups, the local anesthetic used will be 100 mg 0.5% ropivacaine. After surgery, the patient will be followed by the blinded research team for incidence of adverse events, as well as the collection of the primary outcome measures. These include pain at rest and with movement at 6, 12 and 24 hours after surgery, time for first request for pain medication, total pain medications (narcotics and non-narcotic analgesics) given in 24 hours and the time of participant's ability to walk 100 feet as recorded by physical therapist. This information will be captured from the patient's electronic medical record.

Minor changes were made to the outcome measures after the original approval of this submission. This was only to clarify the specific measures from the more general descriptions in the original.

The HF-ACP website leads participants through 4 e-learning modules. Each module contains 3 core elements: (1) educational content which provides information and support to help patients complete the module (2) interactive tools for documenting their thoughts and progress and (3) motivational video clips that encourage behavior change by validating participants ambivalence, suggesting strategies to help participants complete the task and to encourage and reassure participants that they can do this.
The invention discloses a mulberry-amboyna bark liniment for hair restore. The main medical compositions of the active ingredient of the raw materials are winter mulberry leaf and phellodendron and therefore the invention is called mulberry-amboyna bark liniment for hair restore; the mulberry-amboyna bark liniment also comprises minor portions of vitex trifolia fruit, rhizoma cimicifugae, herba celiptae, kochia scoparia fruit and other traditional Chinese herbs; the clear and apparent medical liquid which is just the mulberry-amboyna bark liniment is obtained after the soaking in medical alcohol and filtering of the compositions. The mulberry-amboyna bark liniment has the advantages of scientific formula, evident treatment effect, easy usage, low price but no toxic side effect and the like. The liniment can be repeatedly applied to the head part needing hair restore for two to three times per day. Generally the pore applied with the liniment can be observed to arise 4 days after the application and the new hair can grow gradually. In addition, the liniment can eliminate fat, dandruff and itch as well as controlling the hair loss.
Language and communicative impairments following stroke (aphasia) affect more than 30% of stroke survivors, with an incidence of over 180,000 new cases annually. The consequences of aphasia are far reaching and can affect psychosocial adjustment, family role participation, vocational opportunities, and the ability to function independently in society. Recent estimates suggest that VHA outpatient clinics see 2000 new cases of aphasia each year, meaning that approximately 20,000 enrolled VHA patients and 100,000 United States Veterans are currently living with the condition. In response to this need, the VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System Geriatric Research, Education, and Clinical Center (GRECC) initiated the Program for Intensive Residential Aphasia Treatment and Education (PIRATE) in January 2009. PIRATE is a clinical demonstration project that provides approximately 100 hours of cognitive-linguistically oriented aphasia treatment to community dwelling Veterans over a 4-week period. PIRATE currently serves 18 Veterans per year in bi-monthly sessions. Resource limitations associated with PIRATE and aphasia treatment in general require that treatments be offered in the most cost-effective doses to those Veterans most likely to benefit from them.

This treatment-effectiveness research study addresses these issues by examining the dose-response relationship for semantically-oriented naming treatment, and identifying cognitive, psycholinguistic and neuroanatomical predictors of treatment success. Study participants (n=60, over a 4-year period) will be recruited nationwide from Veterans enrolled in PIRATE. They will have their naming performance measured prior to PIRATE entry, during each week of treatment, and at program exit/follow-up. A battery of cognitive measures and structural magnetic resonance images of their brains will also be collected prior to treatment. Participants' performance on trained and untrained lexical items and a standardized measure of naming performance will be compared across time intervals to specify the therapy amounts for which maximum treatment benefits are achieved. Their treatment outcomes will also be correlated with specific cognitive test scores and the location and extent of their brain lesions to identify cognitive and neurological markers predictive of positive treatment response. Treatment response will also be compared across participants with different psycholinguistic profiles, to determine which groups of patients show greatest benefit from semantically-oriented naming treatment.

This study should provide answers to two interlocking questions: for whom is aphasia therapy most effective, and how much of it is needed to optimize treatment outcomes. These answers have the potential to set transformative new standards for how aphasia treatment is delivered within VHA and to stroke survivors with aphasia more broadly.
In pre-approval narcolepsy, OSA and SWD controlled trials of armodafinil tablets, anxiety, agitation, nervousness, and irritability were reasons for treatment discontinuation more often in patients on armodafinil tablets compared to placebo (armodafinil tablets 1.2% and placebo 0.3%). Depression was also a reason for treatment discontinuation more often in patients on armodafinil tablets compared to placebo (armodafinil tablets 0.6% and placebo 0.2%). Cases of suicidal ideation were observed in clinical trials.

Caution should be exercised when armodafinil tablets are given to patients with a history of psychosis, depression, or mania. If psychiatric symptoms develop in association with armodafinil tablet administration, consider discontinuing armodafinil tablets.

Psychiatric adverse reactions have been reported in patients treated with modafinil. Modafinil and armodafinil are very closely related. Therefore, the incidence and type of psychiatric symptoms associated with armodafinil tablets are expected to be similar to the incidence and type of these events with modafinil.

Postmarketing adverse reactions associated with the use of armodafinil tablets, some of which have resulted in hospitalization, have included mania, delusions, hallucinations, suicidal ideation, and aggression. Many, but not all, patients who developed psychiatric adverse reactions had a prior psychiatric history. In these cases, reported armodafinil tablet total daily doses ranged from 50 mg to 450 mg, which includes doses below and above the recommended dosages.
Improving the quality and safety of prescribing for people with multiple chronic conditions and multiple medicines is a challenge for General Practitioners (GPs) and consequently, there has been an increased emphasis on ways to support GPs throughout this process. The integration of pharmacists into the general practice team is one approach being explored internationally and studies have shown that pharmacists, working as part of the general practice team, have influenced the safety and quality of prescribing. However, the evidence base is weak as there have been few high quality randomised controlled trials (RCTs) conducted and a range of modest effect sizes reported. Moreover, it is unclear whether such interventions can result in clinically significant improvements in patient outcomes. In Ireland, pharmacists are not integrated into general practice teams, therefore the feasibility of the integration of pharmacists into general practice warrants further exploration in the Irish primary care setting, prior to evaluation in a full scale RCT. The aim of this study is to develop and pilot test an intervention involving pharmacists, working within GP practices, to optimise prescribing in Ireland, which has a mixed public and private primary healthcare system.
