The invention discloses a Chinese medicinal composition for treating the chronic heart failure. In the traditional Chinese medical science, the chronic heart failure is generated due to weak qi, defect of blood transportation caused by weak qi, heart-yin loss and deficiency of yin and astringent blood and shows as yin-yang deficiency, unsmooth heart and nutriment and stasis retention in the heart vessels. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicines capable of supplementing qi to warm yang and activating blood and dredging collaterals, i.e. angelica sinensis, safflower, red paeony root, malaytea scurfpea fruit, morinda officinalis, lucid ganoderma, seahorse, caulis spatholobi, arillus longan, ladybell root, rhizoma atractylodis macrocephalae and raw rehmannia glutinosa, are selected to be prepared into decoction; and after the decoction is administrated to a patient, a good treatment effect is obtained. By clinical tests of the hospital, the total effective rate of the Chinese medicinal preparation reaches 93.8 percent. Moreover, the Chinese medicinal preparation has small toxic or side effects and is valuable to be clinically popularized and applied.
This study is designed to investigate if treatment with the antipsychotic Clozapine is associated with changes in various immune and inflammatory biomarkers when compared to treatment with non-Clozapine antipsychotic treatments. Clozapine is a uniquely efficacious treatment of psychotic disorders, the only effective agent in approximately 30-40% of individuals with treatment refractory symptoms. Clozapine, unlike other antipsychotic drugs, often precipitates a unique, multi-systemic inflammatory response most widely recognized in the cardiovascular system but also likely the central nervous system (CNS) which is tied into its unique side effect profile but might also account for its increased efficacy. Schizophrenia spectrum disorders affect about 1% of the population with around 30-40% of those diagnosed with symptoms refractory to standard, non-Clozapine antipsychotic treatment. We will measure various inflammatory markers 1x for patients who are stable outpatients. Participants will be patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia on clozapine treatment for at least 6 months referred from OSU's outpatient clinic with a comparator group also referred from Ohio State University, having shown treatment resistant symptoms but with provider/patient electing not to use clozapine for clinically relevant reasons and have been on antipsychotic medication for at least 6 months. The study includes 1 visit including symptom rating scale assessments and laboratory draw for collection of serum samples and the visit also having more diagnostic assessments to assure proper enrollment. If the study results are positive meaning there is a difference between the two groups, it would help elucidate the potential mechanisms by which Clozapine works and demonstrates increased efficacy for those with treatment-refractory schizophrenia, a severely debilitating, life long illness with marked disability. This would also allow for further studies to explore this mechanism and the role of inflammation and the immune system as well.
Transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) is a cation channel that plays a role in the progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), yet its involvement in synovial hyperplasia and inflammation has not been determined. We previously reported that TRPM7 affects the destruction of articular cartilage in RA. Herein, we further confirmed the involvement of TRPM7 in fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS) proliferation, metastasis and inflammation. We observed increased TRPM7 expression in FLSs derived from human RA patients. Pharmacological inhibition of TRPM7 protected primary RA-FLSs from proliferation, metastasis and inflammation. Furthermore, we found that TRPM7 contributes to RA-FLS proliferation, metastasis and inflammation by increasing the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Mechanistically, the PKCα-HuR axis was demonstrated to respond to Ca2+ influx, leading to TRPM7-mediated RA-FLS proliferation, metastasis and inflammation. Moreover, HuR was shown to bind to IL-6 mRNA after nuclear translocation, which could be weakened by TRPM7 channel inhibition. Additionally, adeno-associated virus 9-mediated TRPM7 silencing is highly effective at alleviating synovial hyperplasia and inflammation in adjuvant-induced arthritis rats. In conclusion, our findings unveil a novel regulatory mechanism involved in the pathogenesis of RA and suggest that targeting TRPM7 might be a potential strategy for the prevention and treatment of RA.
Associative learning can drive many different types of behaviors, including food consumption. Previous studies have shown that cues paired with food delivery while mice are hungry will lead to increased consumption in the presence of those cues at later times. We previously showed that overconsumption can be driven in male mice by contextual cues, using chow pellets. Here we extended our findings by examining other parameters that may influence the outcome of context-conditioned overconsumption training. We found that the task worked equally well in males and females, and that palatable substances such as high-fat diet and Ensure chocolate milkshake supported learning and induced overconsumption. Surprisingly, mice did not overconsume when sucrose was used as the reinforcer during training, suggesting that nutritional content is a critical factor. Interestingly, we also observed that diet-induced obese mice did not learn the task. Overall, we find that context-conditioned overconsumption can be studied in lean male and female mice, and with multiple reinforcer types.

The invention discloses a traditional Chinese medicine composition for resisting bacterial pneumonia and application thereof. The traditional Chinese medicine composition consists of platycodon grandiflorum extract, loquat leaf extract, polygonatum odoratum extract, mulberry leaf extract, lily extract, saussurea involucrata extract, dendrobium candidum flower extract, mesona chinensis extract, momordica grosvenori extract, noni fruit powder and assail fruit powder. In addition, the invention also provides a traditional Chinese medicine liquid preparation for resisting bacterial pneumonia, and the invention uses gamma-cyclodextrin as a taste masking agent for the first time, so as to mask the bitter taste caused by platycodon grandiflorum and loquat leaves. Meanwhile, the composition also has solubilization and suspension-assisting effects, and is beneficial to improving the bioavailability of the platycodin. Experiments prove that the traditional Chinese medicine composition has obvious antibacterial pneumonia resistance efficacy, and is safe and free of side effects. The invention provides a new technical means for the treatment of the antibacterial pneumonia.
Previous observations do not allow to draw firm conclusions on the effect of altitude sojourn on sleep, breathing and daytime performance in patients with the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Furthermore, the susceptibility of sleep apnea patients to high altitude related illness is not known. Therefore, the purpose is to study untreated patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome living at low altitude during a sojourn of a few days at moderate altitude in order to evaluate the physiologic effects of hypobaric hypoxia in these patients. We hypothesize that: 1. Sleep and nocturnal breathing disturbances in untreated OSA patients are more pronounced at moderate altitude compared to low altitude. 2. The increase in sleep related breathing disturbances at moderate altitude is due to an increase in central apnea/hypopnea
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a negative-sense single-stranded RNA virus in the Pneumoviridae family and a leading cause of acute upper and lower respiratory infections, particularly in children, immunocompromised patients, and the elderly. Although nearly every person is infected with HMPV during early childhood, re-infections occur often, highlighting difficulty in building long-term immunity. Inflammatory responses, including PD-1-mediated impairment of virus-specific CD8+ T cells (TCD8), contribute to HMPV disease severity. HMPV strains are divided into four lineages: A1, A2, B1, and B2. However, little is known about immune responses to different viral subtypes. Here, we characterize responses to four HMPV clinical isolates-TN/94-344 (A1), TN/94-49 (A2), C2-202 (B1), and TN/96-35 (B2)-in vivo in C57BL/6 (B6) mice. TN/94-49 was avirulent, while TN/94-344, C2-202, and TN/96-35 showed varying degrees of weight loss and clinical disease. Differences in disease did not correlate to virus burden in upper or lower tracts. TN/94-49 HMPV exhibited highest nose titers and delayed lung clearance. Cytokine profiles differed between HMPV isolates, with TN/96-35 inducing the broadest lung inflammatory cytokines. TN/96-35 also showed lower HMPV burden and less weight loss than other virulent isolates, suggesting a more efficient antiviral response. Interestingly, disease correlated with higher expression of T-cell chemoattractant CXCL9. All isolates elicited PD-1 upregulation and decreased IFNγ and CD107a expression in virus-specific TCD8, with little difference between HMPV subtypes. This work uncovers previously uncharacterized variations in immune responses to clinical HMPV isolates of different lineages.IMPORTANCEThis study extensively explored differences in T-cell-mediated immunity between human metapneumovirus (HMPV) clinical isolates. Much existing HMPV research has been done with strains passaged extensively in cell lines, likely acquiring mutations advantageous to in vitro replication. Clinical isolates are collected directly from human patients and have undergone <10 passages, serving as more physiologically relevant models of HMPV infection. Additionally, existing animal studies of HMPV disease mainly focus on lung pathogenesis, while HMPV infects both upper and lower airways of humans. This work highlights distinct differences in HMPV burden in upper and lower tracts between clinical isolates. Lastly, this study uniquely explores differences in host immunity between all four HMPV genetic lineages. The predominant HMPV subtype in circulation varies seasonally; thus, understanding host responses to all subgroups is critical for developing effective HMPV vaccines.

In Part 1, a sentinel open-label cohort of subjects with cirrhosis and Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score \<12 was admitted to an inpatient facility for a run-in diet, baseline assessments, IMP administration, safety monitoring, and collection of blood, urine, and stool samples for evaluation of safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) evaluations. Subjects in Part 1 were enrolled sequentially to receive SYNB1020. Once the safety and tolerability were established in Part 1, enrollment was opened to subjects in Part 2.

Part 2 comprised a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in subjects with cirrhosis and hyperammonemia. Subjects were permitted to be pre-screened for eligibility based on medical history and a single fasting spot venous ammonia measurement. Eligible subjects with elevated fasting spot venous ammonia then underwent full screening within 7 days of pre-screening. Eligible subjects were admitted to an inpatient facility for a run-in diet and 24-hour ammonia profile, and those with an elevated 24-hour ammonia area under the curve (AUC) (\>1.2 × the upper limit of normal \[ULN\]) proceeded with computer-generated randomization in a 1:1 ratio to receive either SYNB1020 or matching placebo. Randomization was followed by IMP administration, safety monitoring, and collection of blood, urine, and stool samples for PK and PD evaluations.

The EnteroTracker® is a capsule device that includes an absorbent string. The trailing end of the string is taped to the cheek and the capsule is swallowed with 8-12 ounces of water. The capsule dislodges the string as it travels to the proximal small intestine. The capsule continues through the remainder of the GI tract, leaving a string in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Following a 60-minute dwell time, the string is removed via the subjects' mouth and processed for analysis. Subjects will be coached to ease any potential anxieties and answer any questions. A preparatory video can be used for education if desired.
INTRODUCTION: Bladder cancer ranks 17th in prevalence of cancer types among women, and the trend is rising. The increased risk of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) after radical cystectomy (RC) underscores the need for greater focus on preserving and mitigating FSD.
OBJECTIVES: To place greater emphasis on the importance of female sexual function (FSF) in the treatment of bladder cancer and stimulate additional research to discover more effective solutions for enhancing the overall quality of life.
METHODS: This review used a narrative approach. Previous reviews on FSF after RC have provided limited and 1-sided solutions due to the lack of research. What makes this review unique is its innovative approach: it includes all available measures curing FSD as well as comparative analyses based on experimental data, thus making the findings more comprehensive. A detailed perspective of treatments for female bladder cancer is provided, including nerve- and organ-sparing RC, robot-assisted RC, and radiotherapy. We also analyze the impact of treatments for female bladder cancer on postoperative FSD. Additionally, solutions for addressing or alleviating postoperative FSD are summarized, such as urinary diversion, vaginal reconstruction, and drug and nondrug treatment.
RESULTS: Research has suggested that robot-assisted nerve- and organ-sparing RC is promising. Moreover, orthotopic neobladder among urinary diversions without a stoma helps to maintain a positive female body image. If part of the anterior vaginal wall must be removed during RC, vaginal reconstruction can restore the dimensions with synthetic grafts and biologic scaffolds. Additionally, postoperative measures, such as vaginal laser and hormone therapy, and use of vaginal dilators and lubricants have a significant role in reducing distress caused by FSD to provide maximum relief.
CONCLUSIONS: To support FSF after RC, various interventions are needed, and urologists must focus on patient recovery while minimizing treatment impact on FSF as much as possible.
PURPOSE: To assess the efficacy and safety of apalutamide plus goserelin for androgen receptor (AR)-positive unresectable or recurrent/metastatic salivary gland carcinoma.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: This trial was an open-label, single-arm, multicenter phase II study. Patients with histologically confirmed unresectable or recurrent/metastatic salivary gland carcinoma with AR expression were included. The primary endpoint was the overall response rate (ORR) according to RECIST v1.1 by an independent central radiology review in the first 24 response-evaluable (RE) patients who had been observed at least 24 weeks from study initiation (primary RE patients). The efficacy was to be declared when at least 8 of the 24 primary RE patients responded.
RESULTS: A total of 31 patients were enrolled. In the first 24 primary RE patients with a median follow-up of 7.4 months, confirmed ORR by independent central radiology review was 25.0% [6/24 patients; 95% confidence interval, 9.8%-46.7%; P = 0.11 (one-sided)], which did not meet the predefined criteria of efficacy. Clinical benefit rate (ORR + rate of stable disease for at least 24 weeks) and median progression-free survival were 50.0% and 7.4 months, respectively. Both median duration of response and overall survival were not reached. Exploratory analyses showed a better ORR of 54.5% (6/11) in patients with AR positivity ≥70% and no history of prior systemic therapy. Grade 3 or higher treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in 35.5% (11/31), which included skin rash, anemia, leukopenia, and cancer pain.
CONCLUSIONS: Although this study did not meet the predefined efficacy criteria, apalutamide plus goserelin showed clinically meaningful efficacy in a subset of patients with AR-positive salivary gland carcinoma and safety consistent with prior experience in prostate cancer.
This dose finding study uses a 3 + 3 dose escalation and expansion design to establish the recommended Phase 2 dose. The starting dose is CC-292 375 mg twice daily and Lenalidomide 10 mg once daily. After review of the data for dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), the second dose level will be enrolled. Doses for this second cohort are CC-292 500 mg twice daily and lenalidomide 10 mg once daily. Additional doses of lenalidomide in combination with CC-292 may be evaluated to accurately determine the maximum tolerated dose. Once the maximum tolerated dose and/or optimal biologic effect has been ascertained, an expansion cohort of 24 subjects may be enrolled.
Between November 2016 and November 2019, the investigators initially recruited 20 with stable COPD patients. Primary evaluations including medical history, physical examination, anthropometric data, blood routine, blood biochemistry, blood coagulation, electrocardiogram,high resolution chest CT, arterial blood gas, pulmonary function test,6-min walking test(6MWT),modified medical research council(MMRC),St George's respiratory questionnaire(SGRQ). After initial evaluation, the investigators obtained extraction bronchial basal cells micro tissue from 3\~4 grade bronchus to by mean of fiberbronchoscopy, then purified and selectively amplified bronchial basal cells to reserve .The basal layer cell culture system for our partners (Regend Therapeutics) patented technology using culture medium containing special combination of growth factors and composite materials to simulated composite basal layer environment and can selectively amplified bronchial basal cells, while other types of mature epithelial cells and fibroblasts could not grow naturally. After a period of time, the basal lamina of the bronchial epithelial cells can be stored in the liquid nitrogen cell bank for a long time. Before applied to the patient, bronchial basal cells need to go through a series of strict examination. Then, bronchoscopy was performed again and the bronchial basal lamina suspension was injected directly into the lesion site . Estimate the change of respiratory function(symptoms, signs, chest CT, pulmonary function, the 6 minute walk test, MMRC, SGRQ etc) and serum index in third days , first months, third months, sixth months and first years of the follow-up after treatment respectively, to evaluate the safety and efficiency of autologous bronchial basal cells for treatment of COPD .
Subjects will use the Klue App during the first 6 weeks of the trial. At 6 weeks, subjects will discontinue Klue App use and will continue the final 6 weeks without the product.
Severe Recalcitrant Nodular Acne 

Zenatane is indicated for the treatment of severe recalcitrant nodular acne. Nodules are inflammatory lesions with a diameter of 5 mm or greater. The nodules may become suppurative or hemorrhagic. “Severe,” by definition,2 means “many” as opposed to “few or several” nodules. Because of significant adverse effects associated with its use, Zenatane should be reserved for patients with severe nodular acne who are unresponsive to conventional therapy, including systemic antibiotics. In addition, Zenatane is indicated only for those patients who are not pregnant, because Zenatane can cause life threatening birth defects (see Boxed CONTRAINDICATIONS  AND  WARNINGS). 

A single course of therapy for 15 to 20 weeks has been shown to result in complete and prolonged remission of disease in many patients.1,3,4 If a second course of therapy is needed, it should not be initiated until at least 8 weeks after completion of the first course, because experience has shown that patients may continue to improve while off Zenatane. The optimal interval before retreatment has not been defined for patients who have not completed skeletal growth (see WARNINGS: Skeletal: Bone Mineral Density, Hyperostosis, Premature Epiphyseal Closure).
