The prevalence of HIV among men who have sex with men (MSM) is estimated at an alarming 19% domestically (CDC 2010), rates comparable to endemic settings in certain regions of sub-Saharan Africa where approximately 20% of the adult population is HIV infected. Studies have also demonstrated a staggeringly high prevalence of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) in MSM, and shown an association between CSA and HIV risk in MSM. A successful intervention for MSM with a CSA history to prevent HIV has the potential to avert infections among some of the riskiest members of the most HIV vulnerable group in the U.S. Notwithstanding the ability of the existing HIV prevention interventions to show reductions in sexual risk taking, the recent successes of chemoprophylaxis, current policy initiatives, and empirically supported recommendations, all support development of combination prevention interventions that can specify multiple prevention targets, address related risk factors and barriers, and are grounded in a community context. The pathways from CSA to adult sexual risk behavior are varied and complex and this complexity is appropriately addressed in individual-based interventions where empirically supported interventions for CSA related trauma were efficacy tested. The development of an integrated prevention intervention that utilizes cognitive behavioral technologies to address co-occurring and interfering CSA and sexual risk represents a novel and largely untested innovative application that is theoretically designed to address sexual risk directly and indirectly through reductions in CSA-related trauma symptoms. The flexibility of integrated and combination prevention programs has the potential to support triage of MSM with particular risk profiles to the programs that best meet their prevention needs.

This two-arm RCT is designed to test the efficacy of a psycho-social intervention that addresses intersecting epidemics among MSM, HIV and CSA. The experimental condition integrates sexual risk reduction counseling with Cognitive Processing Therapy for Sexual Risk (CPT-SR). CPT-SR has been specifically piloted on MSM with CSA histories and sexual risk to reduce interfering negative CSA-related thoughts about self, to more accurately appraise sexual risk, and to decrease avoidance of sexual safety considerations through rehearsals of sexual safety behaviors. The active and time-matched comparison condition is risk reduction counseling plus supportive psychotherapy. The investigators will randomize HIV-uninfected MSM who report a history of CSA and multiple recent sexual risk episodes for HIV (unprotected anal/vaginal intercourse) across two sites (Boston and Miami). The primary outcome will be self-reported sexual risk taking as assessed via a computer-based questionnaire. Secondary outcomes include trauma symptom severity, both cognitive and behavioral. Study assessment points are at baseline, 3 (post treatment), 6, 9, and 12-month follow-ups.
DNA levels and activity (RNA/DNA ratio) of total bacteria after the first-visit procedures (root canal preparation with Reciproc System and NaOCl 2.5%, followed by final irrigation protocol using activation techniques: XP Endo-Finisher and ultrasonic activation) and the second-visit protocol (intracanal medication with calcium hydroxide paste, followed by an 2nd-visit root canal preparation). Additionally, the composition of the active microbiome will be assessed by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis of the root canal samples, and the success rate (apical repair) of the endodontic treatment after 1 follow-up period will be assessed by an intraoral radiograph and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) analyses.
The Toxic Life Cycle of a Cigarette is the counterfactual condition. It is a 17-minute video, but contains no information about reproductive health. Instead, the video teaches about the harms of cigarettes.

Bipolar disorder (BD) in adolescence is associated with poor outcomes, including impaired psychosocial functioning, substance use, and suicidality. Preliminary data using DBT as a treatment for youth BD shows improvement in depression symptoms and suicidality. At the same time, the reality is that BD is a chronic disease, and it stands to reason that a pragmatic, adaptive management approach is warranted. Developing a multi-level DBT-informed approach is advantageous for a number of reasons, in particular because this approach embraces clinical heterogeneity within and between individuals. Whereas some youth clearly require full/"high-dose" treatment, others may benefit from judicious use of "lower-dose" interventions, alongside re-evaluation of dosing needs over time. Furthermore, there is a subset of youth who do not require and/or do not want the intensity and frequency of treatment that current interventions provide. Thus far, the leading evidence-based psychosocial treatment studies in the field of youth BD have taken an "all or nothing" approach and have only been studied at one dosing level. While such an approach has certain advantages, it lacks person-centered consideration regarding pragmatic dosing. This study endeavors to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of a multi-level treatment model with dosing decisions driven by a combination of risk indicators and symptom severity (with an emphasis on emotional dysregulation, suicidality, and functional impairment; key treatment targets in dialectical behavior therapy), along with patient preference. This study proposes to implement three intensity levels of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)-informed intervention that differ in regards to the number and frequency of sessions, parental involvement, and treatment components. This research will seek to understand the outcomes of three different levels of therapy and will examine what factors lead to the escalation of DBT dosing levels in this population.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe cardiovascular disease characterised by pulmonary vascular remodelling. The pivotal role of cellular senescence in vascular remodelling has been acknowledged. Transglutaminase type 2 (TG2), a calcium-dependent enzyme, is intricately linked to both cellular senescence and PH. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the involvement of TG2 in PH remain unclear. In this study, we explored the expression of TG2 and the cellular senescence marker p16INK4a in the pulmonary vasculature of mice with PH induced by hypoxia combined with SU5416. Our findings revealed upregulation of both TG2 and p16INK4a expression in the pulmonary vasculature of PH mice. Additionally, a notable increase in TG2 expression was observed in senescent pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC). To delve deeper, we employed proteomic sequencing to reveal seven genes associated with cellular senescence, with a subsequent focus on MAPK14. Our investigation revealed that TG2 regulates senescence in PASMC by modulating the phosphorylation levels of MAPK14. Additionally, in the context of hypoxia combined with SU5416, our observations revealed a noteworthy reduction in both pulmonary vascular remodelling and senescent manifestations in smooth muscle-specific TG2 knockout mice compared with their wild-type counterparts. In summary, our findings indicate that TG2 deficiency lowers the senescence levels of PASMC by inhibiting the activity of MAPK14. This inhibition of senescence in the pulmonary vasculature of PH mice helps to decelerate the progression of pulmonary vascular remodelling and consequently hinders the onset and development of PH.
Background: Delirium management is crucial in palliative care. Morphine effectively relieves dyspnea due to heart failure. However, the effect of morphine, which is used to relieve dyspnea due to heart failure, on the incidence of delirium has not been examined to date. Objective: To evaluate the effect of morphine, which is used to relieve dyspnea due to heart failure, on delirium. Design: Retrospective observational study. Setting/Subjects: Subjects were identified from Osaka University Hospital records, located in Japan, from January 1, 2010, to September 30, 2021. The case group consisted of admissions for heart failure or cardiomyopathy registered in electronic medical records. Morphine was administered to relieve dyspnea due to heart failure, and no surgeries or procedures were performed. The control group consisted of admissions for heart failure or cardiomyopathy in the Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) database, which did not include administration of morphine, oxycodone, or fentanyl during the hospitalization period and patients did not undergo surgery or any other procedure. Measurements: The incidence of delirium was assessed. Results: The odds ratios for morphine in the multivariate logistic regression analysis with propensity score and univariate logistic regression analysis after propensity score matching were 1.406 (95% confidence interval (CI) [0.249-7.957]) and 1.034 (95% CI [0.902-1.185]), respectively. Conclusions: Morphine, which is used to relieve dyspnea due to heart failure, had minimal effect on the incidence of delirium. This information is likely to be beneficial for the future use of morphine in the management of dyspnea in patients with heart failure.
Patients with refractory neuropathic leg and low back pain as result of FBSS will be enrolled in the study and receive electrocatheter implant. Then, they will be observed for a two-weeks trial period in which the efficacy of the stimulation and the compliance of the patient is evaluated. During this trial a Tonic wave stimulation is administered by the external generator. After the trial, the definitive generator will be implanted. Tonic stimulation will be selected as wave form for four weeks. After this period, the stimulation will be switched into the combined waveform for 30 days. At the end of the study period, the final waveform setting of the SCS will be in accord with the patient's stimulation preference.
An epilatory composition comprising an admixture of a hydrocarbon resin material and a mineral oil in weight ratio of 1.3:1 to 2.8:1, and a polyethylene in the form of a homopolymer. The hydrocarbon resin is preferably selected from poly(methylstyrene-co-indene) or hydrogenated polycyclopentadiene resin. The epilatory composition preferably comprises 55-70% wt/wt of the hydrocarbon resin. The mineral oil is preferably paraffin oil. The epilatory composition preferably comprises 25-40% wt/wt of the mineral oil. The polyethylene preferably has a molecular weight from 100 to 1000 mass units, and is preferably present in 0.1-5% wt/wt of the composition. A preferred composition comprises 55-70 wt% of a hydrocarbon resin; 25-40 wt% of a mineral oil; and 0.1-5 of a polyethylene linear homopolymer. The composition has a lowered melting point compared to similar epilatory compositions, thereby reducing the time required to prepare the composition for use.
Various systems and methods for collecting patient data are discussed herein. According to some systems and methods, a timer may be started, and a blood pressure data collection system is actuated to obtain a blood pressure measurement of a patient upon the expiration of the timer. The timer may be incorporated into a patient data collection system or method to ensure the patient is relaxed and calm prior to taking a blood pressure measurement. An event may be sensed by an environmental sensor system and the timer may be started in response to sensing the event. A clinician leaving a room where the patient is disposed is one example of an event. An interruption may be sensed by the environmental sensor system and the timer may be terminated in response to sensing the interruption. The clinician entering the room where the patient is disposed in one example of an interruption.
Objective:To investigate the effect of phosphorylated HSP27 on the proliferation and metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and its molecular mechanism. Methods:①Western blot assay was used to detect the expression levels of HSP27 and p-HSP27 in CNE1 and CNE2 cells of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Inhibited the phosphorylation of HSP27, Transwell assay detected the metastasis ability of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. ②Nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines(CNE2-OE1 and CNE2-OE2) overexpressing phosphorylated and dephosphorylated mutants of HSP27 were synthesized, empty vector transfected CNE2 cells(CNE2-NC) were used as controls. The proliferation ability of the three groups of cells was detected by CCK8, and the expression levels of CyclinD1, Bax and Bcl-2 were detected by Western blot. Transwell was used to detect the migration and invasion ability of cells, and Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of E-cadherin, Vimentin, MMP2 and MMP9. Results:The expression level of HSP27 in CNE2 was higher than that of CNE1 cells, while the expression level of p-HSP27 was opposite. After inhibition of HSP27 phosphorylation, the invasion and migration ability of CNE1 cells decreased significantly, with no significant change in CNE2 cells. Compared with CNE2-NC, the growth rate of CNE2-OE1 decreased, and the growth rate of CNE2-OE2 increased. The expression level of CyclinD1 was down-regulated in CNE2-OE1 and higher in CNE2-OE2. The expression level of Bax in CNE2-OE1 was increased, while the expression of Bcl-2 was decreased. There was no significant change in the expression of Bax and Bcl-2 in CNE2-OE2. Compared with CNE2-NC, the migration ability of CNE2-OE1 was enhanced and the invasion ability was weakened, while the migration ability of CNE2-OE2 was weakened and the invasion ability was enhanced. There was no significant difference in the expression levels of E-cadherin was decreased in CNE2-OE1 and increased in CNE2-OE2. There was no significant difference in the expression levels of Vimentin among the three groups. The expression levels of MMP2 and MMP9 were up-regulated in CNE2-OE2, and slightly down-regulated in CNE2-OE1. Conclusion:HSP27 and p-HSP27 were differentially expressed in different nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells, and the metastasis ability of nasopharyngeal carcinoma was not only related to the expression level of HSP27, but also related to the level of p-HSP27. The p-HSP27 inhibited CNE 2 cell proliferation and promoted their apoptosis. As p-HSP27 plays different roles in different stages of nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasis, it can increase the migration ability of CNE2 cells and reduce its invasion ability. p-HSP27 may induce EMT changes in CNE2 by down-regulating E-cadherin, thus promoting CNE2 migration, and may inhibit CNE2 invasion by down-regulating MMPs expression.
Patients receiving triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide should be carefully monitored for fluid or electrolyte imbalances, i.e., hyponatremia, hypochloremic alkalosis, hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia. Determination of serum electrolytes to detect possible electrolyte imbalance should be performed at appropriate intervals. Serum and urine electrolyte determinations are especially important and should be frequently performed when the patient is vomiting or receiving parenteral fluids. Warning signs or symptoms of fluid and electrolyte imbalance include: dryness of mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pains or cramps, muscular fatigue, hypotension, oliguria, tachycardia and gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting. 

Any chloride deficit during thiazide therapy is generally mild and usually does not require any specific treatment except under extraordinary circumstances (as in liver disease or renal disease). Dilutional hyponatremia may occur in edematous patients in hot weather; appropriate therapy is water restriction, rather than administration of salt, except in rare instances when the hyponatremia is life threatening. In actual salt depletion, appropriate replacement is the therapy of choice. 

Hypokalemia may develop with thiazide therapy, especially with brisk diuresis, when severe cirrhosis is present, or during concomitant use of corticosteroids, ACTH, amphotericin B or after prolonged thiazide therapy. However, hypokalemia of this type is usually prevented by the triamterene component of triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide.

Interference with adequate oral electrolyte intake will also contribute to hypokalemia. Hypokalemia can sensitize or exaggerate the response of the heart to the toxic effects of digitalis (e.g., increased ventricular irritability). 

Triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide may produce an elevated blood urea nitrogen level (BUN), creatinine level or both. This is probably not the result of renal toxicity but is secondary to a reversible reduction of the glomerular filtration rate or a depletion of the intravascular fluid volume. Elevations in BUN and creatinine levels may be more frequent in patients receiving divided dose diuretic therapy. Periodic BUN and creatinine determinations should be made especially in elderly patients, patients with suspected or confirmed hepatic disease or renal insufficiencies. If azotemia increases, triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide should be discontinued.
An exothermic reaction occurs when sevoflurane is exposed to CO 2absorbents. This reaction is increased when the CO 2absorbent becomes desiccated, such as after an extended period of dry gas flow through the CO 2absorbent canisters. Rare cases of extreme heat, smoke, and/or spontaneous fire in the anesthesia breathing circuit have been reported during sevoflurane use in conjunction with the use of desiccated CO 2absorbent, specifically those containing potassium hydroxide (e.g. Baralyme). KOH containing CO 2absorbents are not recommended for use with sevoflurane. An unusually delayed rise or unexpected decline of inspired sevoflurane concentration compared to the vaporizer setting may be associated with excessive heating of the CO 2absorbent and chemical breakdown of sevoflurane. 

As with other inhalational anesthetics, degradation and production of degradation products can occur when sevoflurane is exposed to desiccated absorbents. When a clinician suspects that the CO 2absorbent may be desiccated, it should be replaced. The color indicator of most CO 2absorbents may not change upon desiccation. Therefore, the lack of significant color change should not be taken as an assurance of adequate hydration. CO 2absorbents should be replaced routinely regardless of the state of the color indicator.
PURPOSE:To provide a plaster having properly controlled tacky adhesivity of a tacky adhesive layer to enable the peeling of the plaster without causing the peeling of corneous layer or tearing of hairs and also having excellent water resistance.

The participants in this arm will receive triazolam+nitrous oxide at the 1st dental appointment. Dosage: Triazolam: 0.125mg tablet taken 30 minutes prior to dental treatment.
Server-implementing methods include receiving a selection of records for patients from an external source coupled to the server, and vectorizing at least set of healthcare record items associated with the selected patients and other patients from the data source. At least one vector element may be determined from healthcare record items for each patient. Vectors may be formed from at least one of the healthcare record items and the separate vectors concatenated together to form final vectors for the patients. A similarity search may be performed using the final vectors to determine a group of similar patients from the vectorized patients of the system. Selected patients that are within a same dimensional space as a focal patient may be labelled in the batch and presented on computer display. Further, intake of patient data from non-medical record sources may be automated and facilitated through the use of a large language model.
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) report high pain levels, but reduced renal clearance eliminates many analgesic options; therefore, 30-50% of CKD patients have chronic opioid prescriptions. Opioid use in CKD is associated with higher fracture rates. Opioids may directly alter bone turnover directly through effects on bone cells and indirectly via increasing inflammation. We hypothesized that continuous opioid exposure would exacerbate the high bone turnover state of CKD and be associated with elevated measures of inflammation. Male C57Bl/6J mice after 8 weeks of adenine-induced CKD (AD) and non-AD controls (CON) had 14-day osmotic pumps (0.25-µL/hr release) containing either saline or 50-mg/mL oxycodone (OXY) surgically implanted in the subscapular region. After 2 weeks, all AD mice had elevated blood urea nitrogen, parathyroid hormone, and serum markers of bone turnover compared to controls with no effect of OXY. Immunohistochemical staining of the distal femur showed increased numbers of osteocytes positive for the mu opioid and for toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) due to OXY. Osteocyte protein expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and RANKL were higher due to both AD and OXY so that AD + OXY mice had the highest values. Trabecular osteoclast-covered surfaces were also significantly higher due to both AD and OXY, resulting in AD + OXY mice having 4.5-fold higher osteoclast-covered surfaces than untreated CON. These data demonstrate that opioids are associated with a pro-inflammatory state in osteocytes which increases the pro-resorptive state of CKD.
