Enrolled patients were actively ongoing the surveillance program for the follow up of polyp recurrence and progression to CRC. Eligible patients should have undergone a polypectomy since 2003, affected by multiple polyps \< 10 mm or one-two adenomas \< 10 mm and/or with a grade of dysplasia to make them classified at intermediate risk for CRC, and scheduled to screening colonoscopy each 3-5 years. Patients were sequentially 1:1 randomly allocated to placebo or Eviendep at baseline (T0). The dietary supplements were administered twice a day for 60 days in advance of the screening colonoscopy, thus covering approximately eight complete colon epithelial turnover to occur. Five days in advance of T60 colonoscopy, patients refrained from fresh and cooked fruit and vegetable intake. Bowel cleansing was achieved by PEG 4000 oral administration (1120 g/4 L water solution). N=8 biopsy samples/patient were collected from the non adenomatous mucosa in the sigmoidal colon. Small polyps (diameter less or equal 0.5 cm) were topically electrocoagulated, whereas villous and tubulovillous polyps (diameter equal or higher than 0.5 cm) were submitted to the histological assessment.
Emphysema is a progressive, debilitating disease that affects nearly 3 million people in the United States or roughly one percent of the US population. The disease is characterized by destruction of lung tissue as a result of inflammation caused by exposure to noxious inhaled agents for extended periods. The most common cause of this condition is cigarette smoking, although genetic and occupational causes account for up to 10% of cases. Despite aggressive public health initiatives aimed at discouraging the use of cigarettes, smoking-related lung diseases remain a significant cause of disability and death in the United States. Currently there are 46 million smokers in the US. Due to the number of current and new smokers, emphysema is expected to remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States for years to come.

Aeris has developed a novel bronchoscopic system for achieving the benefits of lung volume reduction without surgery. The Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction (BLVR) Hydrogel System, a new investigational therapy for emphysema, is intended to reduce lung volume over a period of weeks by collapsing and promoting the remodeling of diseased areas of the lung. The resulting reduction in lung volume is intended to restore a more normal physiological relationship between lung and chest wall, improve breathing and exercise capacity and alleviate symptoms of chronic dyspnea. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Aeris BLVR System in patients with advanced emphysema.
Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic skin disease of unknown cause and very unpleasant symptoms which significantly influences the quality of life of the affected patients. Large majority of LS lesions is located in anogenital region where initial white flat papules usually develop into large, white patches of thin, itchy skin causing fusion of labia minora, narrowing of the introitus and burying of the clitoris. Most common symptoms are itching, pain, soreness, burning, dyspareunia and dysuria all strongly interfering with sexual function and patient's self image. Existing treatment options with systemic and topical medications (oral retinoids, topical steroids) have some drawbacks and recently the use of laser was proposed for treatment of LS. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of Nd:Yttrium Aluminum Garnet Laser (Nd:YAG) Treatment of Lichen sclerosus in comparison with topical corticosteroid treatment. Half of participants will receive laser treatment and the other half corticosteroid treatment and the results will be followed for 6 months.

BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial agents are administered via intramedullary antibiotic perfusion (iMAP)/intrasoft tissue antibiotic perfusion (iSAP) to infected lesions to control osteoarticular and soft tissue infections. Continuous local antibiotic perfusion (CLAP) has been reported to be useful. This study aimed to investigate the outcomes of DAIR combined with CLAP for chronic PJI after total knee arthroplasty performed at our hospital.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Six patients (male; one case, female; five cases, mean age 79.5 years (70-94)) underwent CLAP for chronic PJI after TKA at our hospital between July 2020 and June 2022. They were followable for at least one year after surgery. Seven months (17-219), with a mean follow-up of 24.3 months (12-36). In addition to direct debridement and insert exchange, systemic antimicrobial treatment, and CLAP with gentamicin were performed using NPWT. We investigated the organisms causing the inflammation, the duration of iMAP/iSAP implantation, the maximum daily dose of GM, the maximum GM blood concentration, and the presence or absence of GM-induced adverse events.
RESULT: Two of six patients had a recurrence of infection at five weeks and five months after initial CLAP and required repeat CLAP treatment, but all patients could preserve their components. The organisms responsible for the flare-ups were MSSA in three cases: ESBL-producing E. coli, mixed MSSA and streptococcal infection, Klebsiella pneumonia in one case each, and unknown pathogens in one case. CLAP therapy for all patients was administered eight times in 6 cases: iMAP, mean: 10.0 days (5-16); iSAP, mean: 19.3 days (15-28); GM dose, mean: 162.5 mg/day (80-240); and GM blood concentration, mean: 1.4 µg/mL (0.2-5.0). Adverse events included one case of reversible acute kidney injury during CLAP in a patient with recurrent infection. DAIR with CLAP for chronic post-TKA infection can be a useful treatment option to preserve components and allow the infection to subside, provided the implant is not markedly loosened.

A medical image compression and decompression technique is presented which exploits the special characteristics of medical images so as to increase the achievable compression ratio over existing generic image compression techniques. In general, the presented technique categorizes medical images based on the type of images. Medical images within the same category will typically have a very high level of similarity to each other. For each category, a type of standard image is computed which represents the typical characteristics of images within a category. For each image being compressed, only the difference between the image and the standard image is compressed. Due to the high level of similarity between images in the same category, the aforementioned difference is typically small and therefore a high compression ratio can be achieved.

At this time, choice of medications for the treatment of headaches in the ED is still based on personal and patient preferences because no properly constructed trials have been carried out that would allow identification of a superior agent. Metoclopramide (Reglan) is a common agent used for relief of headaches in the ED. Uncontrolled studies have shown successful relief of migraine with metoclopramide of 75%. Further studies have reported success rate of 67% with IV metoclopramide. In this study the investigators seek to explore another option for treatment of headaches in the ED, one that may be more efficacious and efficient. Haloperidol (Haldol), a butyrophenone class of medication, is thought to act by affecting the dopamine 2 receptor in the brain. These receptors are relatively abundant in the brainstem nuclei and sympathetic ganglia and nerves, through which they may regulate autonomic visceral, gastrointestinal, and hemodynamic responses frequently associated with migraine. One study, demonstrated that 4 out of 5 patients felt significant relief in pain intensity with the use of haloperidol, even when other medications had failed. Relapses were rare, and several patients reported that haloperidol interrupted the prolonged, intractable migraine spiral they had suffered for days. Furthermore, a case series of six cases of migraine treated with 5mg of haloperidol IV after a 500 to 1000ml bolus of IV fluids reported complete or substantial relief within 25 to 65 minutes and side effects were reported as minimal.

The investigators hypothesize that Haloperidol is more efficacious than metoclopramide in the treatment of an acute headache or migraine in the ED in regard to a self-reported pain rating scale (Numeric Pain Intensity Scale), need for additional medication, emergency department return rates, and resolution of symptoms.

Arboviruses are a significant threat to global public health, with outbreaks occurring worldwide. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a crucial role in the innate immune response against these viruses by recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns and initiating an inflammatory response. Significantly, TLRs commonly implicated in the immune response against viral infections include TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TLR3, TLR7, and TLR8; limiting or allowing them to replicate and spread within the host. Modulating TLRs has emerged as a promising approach to combat arbovirus infections. This review summarizes recent advances in TLR modulation as a therapeutic target in arbovirus infections. Studies have shown that the activation of TLRs can enhance the immune response against arbovirus infections, leading to increased viral clearance and protection against disease. Conversely, inhibition of TLRs can reduce the excessive inflammation and tissue damage associated with arbovirus infection. Modulating TLRs represents a potential therapeutic strategy to combat arbovirus infections.

This clinical trial aimed to evaluate safety and immunogenicity effect of IRV（Vero cell）in Chinese healthy adults, adolescents and infants. The subjects were divided into 5 groups. Two dose and three dose levels will be evaluated. Adult (aged 18-49 years), adolescents (aged 6-17 years), infant subjects (aged 7-71 months) and infant subjects (aged 2-6 months) will receive intramuscular (IM) injection on Days 0 and 28. Infant subjects (aged 2-6 months) subjects will receive intramuscular (IM) injection on Days 0 , 28 and 56. Three dose subgroups (low dose, medium dose and high dose were included in each age group. To maintain blindness in the trial, subjects were randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive different dosages of the vaccine group or placebo group. In the analysis, the placebo subjects of the same age group were combined to ensure that the analysis ratio of the experimental vaccine group to the placebo group is 1:1. Therefore, 24 subjects in the experimental vaccine group and 8 subjects in the placebo group were chose in each dose group. Subjects were randomized to receive different dosages of the vaccine or placebo. Vaccination was performed in the adult group first, then on the adolescents, and on the infants last. Within each age group, dose-escalation with the principle from low to high dosage.

Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) cases represent approximately 15% of all lung cancer cases, remaining a recalcitrant malignancy with poor survival and few treatment options. In the last few years, the addition of immunotherapy to chemotherapy improved clinical outcomes compared to chemotherapy alone, resulting in the current standard of care for SCLC. However, the advantage of immunotherapy only applies to a few SCLC patients, and predictive biomarkers selection are lacking for SCLC. In particular, due to some features of SCLC, such as high heterogeneity, elevated cell plasticity, and low-quality tissue samples, SCLC biopsies cannot be used as biomarkers. Therefore, the characterization of the tumor and, subsequently, the selection of an appropriate therapeutic combination may benefit greatly from liquid biopsy. Soluble factors, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), circulating tumor cells (CTCs), and extracellular vesicles (EVs) are now useful tools in the characterization of SCLC. This review summarizes the most recent data on biomarkers detectable with liquid biopsy, emphasizing their role in supporting tumor detection and their potential role in SCLC treatment choice.
Solid-organ transplantation often requires the implementation of a lifelong immunosuppressive therapy. A combination of tacrolimus (TAC), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), together with steroids is currently used in over 60% of cases. In some patients however, these therapies are associated with high levels of variability, either in terms of response to treatments or in terms of pharmacokinetics, which remains unexplained. To address the issue, new approaches are being considered, in this study we will investigate the involvement of the intestinal microbiota in the pharmacology of these drugs. This is a particularly promising avenue for drugs with a low therapeutic index and large intra- and inter-individual pharmacokinetic variabilities such as tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil. Despite promising preliminary data for tacrolimus, the influence of the gut microbiota in these pharmacokinetic variabilities remains unclear, even less data are available about the involvement of the microbiota in the pharmacokinetics of mycophenolate mofetil.

We expect that this study will produce additional information on the effect of immunosuppression drugs on gut microbiota, and the relationship between microbiota composition and variabilities.
