Dengue virus (DENV) is a Flavivirus that causes the major human arbovirosis, for which no specific treatment exists. The C protein, the viral capsid protein, is a symmetric homodimeric a-helical protein that interacts with intracellular lipid droplets (LDs) during viral replication, possibly via a α2-α2' non-polar central patch that has been hypothesized to interact with lipids. The C protein binding sites to LD were identified, revealing a new function for a conserved segment in the N- terminal disordered region, and indicating that conformational selection is involved in recognition. The obtained results showed that C protein positively-charged N-terminal region prompts the interaction with negatively- charged LDs, after which a conformational rearrangement enables the access of the central hydrophobic patch to LD surface. Altogether, the results allowed the design of a peptide with inhibitory activity of C protein-LD binding, paving the way for new drug development approaches against dengue. The ability of this peptide to bind to LDs in a similar fashion to that of the C protein was demonstrated employing different techniques, such as, but not limited to, nuclear magnetic resonance, zeta potential analysis and atomic force microscopy. Moreover, the de novo designed peptides were tested regarding their ability to inhibit DENV C protein binding to LDs, having been shown that it effectively inhibits the DENV C interaction with LDs, a finding of direct applicability for dengue and related Flavivirus originated pathologies.

BACKGROUND: Stroke is a neurological disease and a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Strokes mainly consist of two types: hemorrhage and ischemia. Stroke patients are being administered multiple drug therapy and are at risk of drug-related problems.
AIM: To estimate drug-related problems (DRPs) and clinical end outcomes in hospitalized stroke patients.
METHODS: Current study was a multicenter, cross-sectional prospective observational study including 250 stroke patients admitted to tertiary care hospitals in Karachi, Pakistan. The study included all clinical subtypes of stroke patients i.e. Stroke, Ischemic stroke, Hemorrhagic stroke, CVA, and TIA. Associations among patient-clinical end outcomes and drug therapy-related variables like DRPs, mortality, and morbidity rates were estimated using Pearson's chi-squared test. Statistical analysis was done by using SPSS software, version 25.
RESULTS: A total of 250 patients participated in this study suffering from different clinical subtypes of stroke i.e. Ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, TIA, and CVA, including 46% male and 54% female patients. The majority of patients' stay at the hospital was between 1-10 days. The overall mortality rate in stroke patients was 51%. HAIs were observed in 70% of patients, HAIs faced by patients were SAP, CAP, UTI, sepsis, and VAP. Drugs were assessed according to NEML i.e. access group antibiotics, watch group antibiotics, reserve group antibiotics, statins, antiepileptics, and proton pump inhibitors. Majorly ceftriaxone was administered to 79% of patients, piperacillin-tazobactam to 52%, and cefixime to 48%, whereas meropenem was administered to 42% of patients along with vancomycin to 39% of total patients. A high mortality rate was observed in the case of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus i.e. 78% and in the case of streptococcus pneumoniae 61% mortality rate was observed. Due to the presence of DRPs and various other clinical factors like comorbidities, DDIs, HAIs, administration of potentially nephrotoxic drugs, and administration of antibiotics without having CST, hospitalized stroke patients faced many problems.
CONCLUSION: This study helped determine DRPs along with various clinical factors affecting the clinical end outcomes of patients suffering from any clinical subtype of stroke. Due to the enhancement in the evidence of the incidence of DRPs in tertiary care hospitals, pharmacist-led drug therapy review by interfering with doctors and other medical professionals at the patient bed site is needed and should be done to avoid any negative end outcomes and serious issues related to DRPs.

Acute pancreatitis is the leading cause of inpatient care among gastrointestinal conditions. Despite early intervention, one-third of patients experience recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP). A comprehensive diagnostic approach is warranted to identify and treat underlying factors in order to prevent recurrence. RAP is most frequent among men aged 30-40, smokers, and in those with excessive alcohol consumption. To identify the etiology is paramount to stratify patients according to their individual risk of RAP and for predicting an eventual evolution to chronic pancreatitis. Although the initial management of acute pancreatitis is widely homogeneous according to established guidelines, there are no defined protocols to investigate RAP. In the present editorial article we propose a structured algorithm with precise recommendations to investigate the etiology RAP as part of routine clinical practice. Although there are relevant knowledge gaps in this disease, we believe that our guidance would contribute for a more homogenous diagnostic approach of RAP in clinical practice.
Gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) is a common, malignant type of tumor in human, and is accompanied with higher mortality. Muscleblind-like 3 (MBNL3) was found to be a pivotal participator in aggravating this cancer's progression. However, the regulatory effects of MBNL3 on GAC development have not been investigated. We therefore sought to study the functions of MBNL3 in GAC progression. In this study, it was demonstrated that MBNL3 exhibited higher expression, and GAC patients with higher MBNL3 expression had poor prognosis. Overexpression of MBNL3 facilitated, and knockdown of MBNL3 suppressed cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis in GAC. Further experiments showed that miR-302e targets MBNL3. Rescue assays then uncovered that the miR-302e/MBNL3 axis aggravated GAC progression. In addition, MBNL3 activated the AKT/VEGFA pathway, and the suppressive regulatory impacts of MBNL3 knockdown on GAC cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis could be rescued after 740 Y-P treatment. Through in vivo assay, it was proved that MBNL3 accelerated tumor growth in vivo. In conclusion, MBNL3 acted as a target of miR-302e to facilitate cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis of gastric adenocarcinoma through the AKT/VEGFA pathway. Our findings illustrate that MBNL3 may be an available bio-target for GAC treatment.
In spite of existing work studying rTMS as a treatment modality in schizophrenia, there are no studies that have examined the effects of rTMS targeting superficial CCN (Cognitive Control Network) structures (LDLPFC and LSPC) on ACC (Anterior Cingulate Cortex) activity or CCN connectivity in schizophrenia. It is also important to note that the vast majority of studies using rTMS in schizophrenia have examined chronic populations where confounds associated with prolonged duration of illness may be present. EPP is a desirable population to study because these individuals tend to have fewer psychiatric and physical comorbidities and less antipsychotic drug exposure, all of which are factors that may confound investigations of new treatment interventions for this illness. In light of the significant unmet medical need associated with schizophrenia and the grave clinical effect of disrupted CC in the illness, rTMS modulating the ACC, and potentially CCN circuitry, represents an unexplored and novel potential treatment option.

The goal of this project is to utilize HF (20 Hz) rTMS, in conjunction with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), to provide evidence that rTMS targeting superficial CCN structures (LDLPFC and LSPC) modulates: 1) activation in the ACC during in-scanner CC task performance and 2) functional connectivity between the CCN structures during in-scanner CC task performance. This study will provide vital preliminary data on target engagement informing future clinical trials seeking to investigate rTMS as a novel treatment for CC impairment in schizophrenia. This study will also seek to refine the understanding of the brain circuitry that mediates the potential pro-CC effects of rTMS through the use of fMRI at baseline and following the course of rTMS administration.
The defining feature of hemiparetic cerebral palsy is motor impairments primarily on one side of the body. Robotic rehabilitation and non-invasive brain stimulation are both emerging technologies that may be beneficial in improving motor performance in individuals with hemiparetic cerebral palsy. Robotic rehabilitation can allow for hundreds of arm movements in the span of an hour, a level of concentrated repetitions that is not possible in traditional rehabilitation. Additionally, robotics can target specific deficits, such as coordinating both arms together, improving accuracy of reaching movements, or improving proprioception, while simultaneously giving the therapist and patient quantitative feedback on performance. Non-invasive brain stimulation using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can safely modulate activity in regions of the brain and has emerged as a tool to enhance motor learning in typically developing children and augment therapy in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy.

Children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy will be randomized to receive robotic rehabilitation with tDCS or robotic rehabilitation with sham-tDCS. Participants and the assessors will be blinded to the treatment. All children will complete 10 sessions within 3 weeks of 1.5 hours of robotic rehabilitation. The Kinarm Exoskeleton Robot will be used and children will play games with their affected arm or both arms to target different aspects of sensorimotor control. Children will simultaneously receive real or sham tDCS for the first 20 minutes of the session. tDCS will consist of 1 mA current with the cathode applied over the contralesional M1 area. All children will be assessed before and after the 10 session intervention period using robotic and clinical measures of motor and sensory performance, and at a 3 month follow up.
Systemic inflammation plays a central role in many diseases and is, therefore, an important therapeutic target. In a scoping review, we assessed the evidence base for the anti-inflammatory effects of pre-, pro-, and synbiotics in children. Of the 1254 clinical trials published in English in Ovid Medline and Cochrane Library PubMed from January 2003 to September 2022, 29 were included in the review. In six studies of healthy children (n = 1552), one reported that fructo-oligosaccharides added to infant formula significantly reduced pro-inflammatory biomarkers, and one study of a single-strain probiotic reported both anti- and pro-inflammatory effects. No effects were seen in the remaining two single-strain studies, one multi-strain probiotic, and one synbiotic study. In 23 studies of children with diseases (n = 1550), prebiotics were tested in 3, single-strain in 16, multi-strain probiotics in 6, and synbiotics in 2 studies. Significantly reduced inflammatory biomarkers were reported in 7/10 studies of atopic/allergic conditions, 3/5 studies of autoimmune diseases, 1/2 studies of preterm infants, 1 study of overweight/obesity, 2/2 studies of severe illness, and 2/3 studies of other diseases. However, only one or two of several biomarkers were often improved; increased pro-inflammatory biomarkers occurred in five of these studies, and a probiotic increased inflammatory biomarkers in a study of newborns with congenital heart disease. The evidence base for the effects of pre-, pro-, and synbiotics on systemic inflammation in children is weak. Further research is needed to determine if anti-inflammatory effects depend on the specific pre-, pro-, and synbiotic preparations, health status, and biomarkers studied.
Mesenchymal stem cell derived extracellular vesicles (MSC EVs) are paracrine modulators of macrophage function. Scientific research has primarily focused on the immunomodulatory and regenerative properties MSC EVs derived from bone marrow. The dental pulp is also a source for MSCs, and their anatomical location and evolutionary function has primed them to be potent immunomodulators. In this study, we demonstrate that extracellular vesicles derived from dental pulp stem cells (DPSC EVs) have pronounced immunomodulatory effect on primary macrophages by regulating the NFκb pathway. Notably, the anti-inflammatory activity of DPSC-EVs is enhanced following exposure to an inflammatory stimulus (LPS). These inhibitory effects were also observed in vivo. Sequencing of the naïve and LPS preconditioned DPSC-EVs and comparison with our published results from marrow MSC EVs revealed that Naïve and LPS preconditioned DPSC-EVs are enriched with anti-inflammatory miRNAs, particularly miR-320a-3p, which appears to be unique to DPSC-EVs and regulates the NFκb pathway. Overall, our findings highlight the immunomodulatory properties of DPSC-EVs and provide vital clues that can stimulate future research into miRNA-based EV engineering as well as therapeutic approaches to inflammation control and disease treatment.
OBJECTIVE: Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a disabling degenerative process of the spine, mainly affecting older patients. LSS manifests with low-back and leg pain and neurogenic claudication. Disability and impairment in activities of daily living are consequences of the progressive narrowing of the lumbar spinal canal. Surgical decompression has been shown to be superior to conservative management. Nonetheless, intraoperative and postoperative blood loss in elderly patients taking antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs owing to cardiovascular comorbidities may be a special issue. This study describes and compares early outcomes after surgical procedures in different groups of patients receiving antithrombotic drugs.
METHODS: The authors' study retrospectively recruited 289 consecutive patients aged ≥ 65 years who received lumbar decompression for spinal stenosis between January 2021 and May 2022. First, 183 patients taking antiplatelet therapy were divided into two groups according to the rationale for use: primary versus secondary prophylaxis of cardiovascular events (group 1 vs group 2). Primary prevention was stopped preoperatively, or secondary prevention was not discontinued during the perioperative period. Secondly, 106 patients who were not taking antiplatelet mediation were divided into two groups, depending on whether preoperative low-molecular-weight heparin had not been administered or had been (group A vs group B). Intraoperative blood loss, surgical time, and postoperative hospitalization were analyzed.
RESULTS: No significant statistical differences were observed between groups 1 and 2 in terms of intraoperative blood loss and time of surgery, or between groups A and B in terms of all analyzed variables. No early or delayed complications were observed, perioperatively or during the postoperative 3-month follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that the use of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapies in elective decompressive surgery could be devoid of early complications and could be safely continued perioperatively.

A cytarabine syndrome has been described by Castleberry. It is characterized by fever, myalgia, bone pain, occasionally chest pain, maculopapular rash, conjunctivitis and malaise. It usually occurs 6 to 12 hours following drug administration. Corticosteroids have been shown to be beneficial in treating or preventing this syndrome. If the symptoms of the syndrome are deemed treatable, corticosteroids should be contemplated as well as continuation of therapy with cytarabine.

Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is the main cause of death in critically ill patients with sepsis. However, its definitive pathogenic mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Lipid droplets (LDs) are important sub-organelles that store lipids and participate in intracellular lipid metabolism. Abnormal aggregation and altered polarity of LDs are associated with the development of several cardiac diseases. To date, visualization of abnormal polarity in models of SCM has not been achieved. Herein, we designed and synthesized the probe BDP-551, a polarity-sensitive probe possessing a donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) structure. BDP-551 exhibits excellent photostability, high LDs targeting, near-infrared (NIR) emission (up to 678 nm) and strong polarity sensitivity. With the help of confocal imaging microscopy, the BDP-551 was able to detect the polarity changes induced in the SCM model cells and visualize the yolk sac region in hypoxic as well as inflamed living zebrafish. In addition, the BDP-551 has been successfully applied to visualize the polarity changes of mice hearts with SCM, proving a decrease of microenvironmental polarity in the development of SCM. Therefore, BDP-551 in this study can be used as a reliable tool to investigate polarity fluctuations and provide new insights into the associated pathogenic and therapeutic mechanisms on SCM.
PURPOSE: To search the relationship between serum neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) values with the development of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and the requirement for laser treatment.
METHODS: This retrospective cohort study was carried out with 195 preterm infants between 2012 and 2023. The NLR, PLR, LMR, and SII values were calculated on both the first day and at the end of the first month after birth. The association between development of ROP and other risk factors were analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis.
RESULTS: Of patients, 92 infants were diagnosed with ROP. Laser treatment was administered to 36 infants. The postnatal first-day NLR and SII values were higher in infants with ROP than in infants without ROP (p < 0.001 for both). Postnatal first-month NLR, LMR, and SII values were higher in infants with ROP (p < 0.001, p = 0.007, and p < 0.001, respectively). In multivariate analyses, postnatal first-day NLR and first-month LMR values were regarded as independent risk factors for the development of ROP (OR:8.867 and 1.286, p = 0.002 and p = 0.009, respectively). In multivariate analyses performed for laser treatment requirement, postnatal first-month PLR and SII values were determined as independent risk factors (OR:0.951 and 1.011, respectively, p = 0.004 for both).
CONCLUSIONS: Postnatal first-day NLR and first-month LMR values were determined as independent risk factors for the development of ROP. For the requirement of laser treatment, the postnatal first-month PLR and SII values were determined as independent risk factors.
