Intramuscular Administration: Reconstitute ceftriaxone powder with the appropriate diluent (see COMPATIBILITY AND STABILITY).

Inject diluent into vial, shake vial thoroughly to form solution. Withdraw entire contents of vial into syringe to equal total labeled dose.

After reconstitution, each 1 mL of solution contains approximately 250 mg or 350 mg equivalent of ceftriaxone according to the amount of diluent indicated below. If required, more dilute solutions could be utilized.

As with all intramuscular preparations, ceftriaxone should be injected well within the body of a relatively large muscle; aspiration helps to avoid unintentional injection into a blood vessel.

Intravenous Administration: Ceftriaxone should be administered intravenously by infusion over a period of 30 minutes, except in neonates where administration over 60 minutes is recommended to reduce the risk of bilirubin encephalopathy. Concentrations between 10 mg/mL and 40 mg/‌mL are recommended; however, lower concentrations may be used if desired. Reconstitute vials with an appropriate IV diluent (see COMPATIBILITY AND STABILITY).

After reconstitution, each 1 mL of solution contains approximately 100 mg equivalent of ceftriaxone. Withdraw entire contents and dilute to the desired concentration with the appropriate IV diluent.
OBJECTIVE: Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hungry bone syndrome (HBS) after parathyroidectomy (PTX) is a serious complication, which can lead to diarrhea, convulsion, arrhythmia and even death. This study was aimed to determine the risk factors for HBS after PTX in dialysis patients with SHPT and construct a nomogram prediction model to predict the incidence of postoperative complications.
METHODS: Clinical data were collected from 80 maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients with SHPT who received total PTX in the Second Hospital of Jilin University from January 2018 to September 2021. In line with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, totally 75 patients were finally enrolled for analysis. Patients were divided into two groups for retrospective analysis according to the severity of postoperative HBS, including HBS group and non-HBS (N-HBS) group. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine the risk factors for postoperative HBS. Afterwards, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted based on the statistical analysis results, aiming to compare the prediction effects of different predicting factors. Finally, the nomogram was established to evaluate the occurrence probability of postoperative complications predicted by the risk factors.
RESULTS: Among the 75 patients, 32 had HBS (HBS group), while 43 did not have HBS (N-HBS group). Univariate analysis results indicated that, the preoperative intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels in HBS group were significantly higher than those in N-HBS group, while preoperative hemoglobin and preoperative albumin (Alb) levels were significantly lower than those in N-HBS group. As discovered by multivariate logistic regression analysis, preoperative iPTH (OR = 1.111, P = 0.029) and ALP (OR = 1.010, P < 0.001) were the independent risk factors for postoperative HBS. ROC curve analysis suggested that the area under the curve (AUC) values of these two indicators were 0.873 and 0.926, respectively (P < 0.0001). Subsequently, the nomogram model for predicting HBS was constructed. The model verification results indicated that the predicted values were basically consistent with the measured values, with the C-index of 0.943 (95% CI 0.892-0.994). Besides, the calibration curve was consistent with the ideal curve, demonstrating the favorable accuracy and discrimination of the model.
CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative iPTH and preoperative ALP are the risk factors for postoperative HBS, which can be used to guide the early clinical intervention.
Coronary endothelial dysfunction (CED) and coronary artery spasm (CAS) are causes of angina with no obstructive coronary arteries in patients. Both can be diagnosed by invasive coronary function testing (ICFT) using acetylcholine (ACh). This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic yield of a 3-minute ACh infusion as compared with a 1-minute ACh bolus injection protocol in testing CED and CAS. We evaluated 220 consecutive patients with angina and no obstructive coronary arteries who underwent ICFT using continuous Doppler flow measurements. Per protocol, 110 patients were tested using 3-minute infusion, and thereafter 110 patients using 1-minute bolus injections, because of a protocol change. CED was defined as a <50% increase in coronary blood flow or any epicardial vasoconstriction in reaction to low-dose ACh and CAS according to the Coronary Vasomotor Disorders International Study Group (COVADIS) criteria, both with and without T-wave abnormalities, in reaction to high dose ACh. The prevalence of CED was equal in both protocols (78% vs 79%, p = 0.869). Regarding the endotypes of CAS according to COVADIS, the equivocal endotype was diagnosed less often in the 3 vs 1-minute protocol (24% vs 44%, p = 0.004). Including T-wave abnormalities in the COVADIS criteria resulted in a similar diagnostic yield of both protocols. Hemodynamic changes from baseline to the low or high ACh doses were comparable between the protocols for each endotype. In conclusion, ICFT using 3-minute infusion or 1-minute bolus injections of ACh showed a similar diagnostic yield of CED. When using the COVADIS criteria, a difference in the equivocal diagnosis was observed. Including T-wave abnormalities as a diagnostic criterion reclassified equivocal test results into CAS and decreased this difference. For clinical practice, we recommend the inclusion of T-wave abnormalities as a diagnostic criterion for CAS and the 1-minute bolus protocol for practicality.
The expected signs and symptoms with overdosage of FORADIL AEROLIZER are those of excessive beta-adrenergic stimulation and/or occurrence or exaggeration of any of the signs and symptoms listed under ADVERSE REACTIONS, e.g., angina, hypertension or hypotension, tachycardia, with rates up to 200 beats/min., arrhythmias, nervousness, headache, tremor, seizures, muscle cramps, dry mouth, palpitation, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, malaise, hypokalemia, hyperglycemia, and insomnia. Metabolic acidosis may also occur. As with all inhaled sympathomimetic medications, cardiac arrest and even death may be associated with an overdose of FORADIL AEROLIZER.

Treatment of overdosage consists of discontinuation of FORADIL AEROLIZER together with institution of appropriate symptomatic and/or supportive therapy. The judicious use of a cardioselective beta-receptor blocker may be considered, bearing in mind that such medication can produce bronchospasm. There is insufficient evidence to determine if dialysis is beneficial for overdosage of FORADIL AEROLIZER. Cardiac monitoring is recommended in cases of overdosage.

The minimum acute lethal inhalation dose of formoterol fumarate in rats is 156 mg/kg (approximately 53,000 and 25,000 times the maximum recommended daily inhalation dose in adults and children, respectively, on a mg/m2 basis). The median lethal oral doses in Chinese hamsters, rats, and mice provide even higher multiples of the maximum recommended daily inhalation dose in humans.
To explore the relationship between serum levels of midkine and omentin-1 and the severity of sepsis in patients, and their prognostic value. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 180 sepsis patients. According to the severity of the patient's condition, they were separated into sepsis group (n = 76), severe sepsis group (n = 59), and sepsis shock group (n = 45). Based on the survival within 28 days of admission, they were grouped into survivors group (n = 128) and nonsurvivors group (n = 52). The serum Midkine level and APACHE II score in the sepsis shock group were higher than those in the severe sepsis group and sepsis group, while the Omentin-1 level was lower than that in the severe sepsis group and sepsis group (p < 0.05). The serum Midkine level and APACHE II score in the severe sepsis group were higher than those in the sepsis group, while the Omentin-1 level was lower than that in the sepsis group (p < 0.05). The Midkine and APACHE II score in the nonsurvivors group was higher than those in the survivors group, while the Omentin-1 score was lower than that in the survivors group (p < 0.05). Midkine and APACHE II score were independent risk factors for the prognosis of sepsis patients, while Omentin-1 was a protective factor for the prognosis of sepsis patients (p < 0.05). The AUC of the combined prediction of serum Midkine and Ommentin-1 for the prognosis of sepsis patients was 0.880, with a sensitivity of 90.38% and a specificity of 72.66%. The combined prediction of serum Midkine and Ommentin-1 was better than that of individual prediction of Midkine and Ommentin-1. Serum Midkine is highly expressed and Omentin-1 is lowly expressed in sepsis patients, and the combination of the two has a high predictive power for the prognosis of sepsis patients.
All Phase I participants received plerixafor 320ug/kg by injection on days 1, 2, 3, 6, 10, and 13, bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 intravenously or subcutaneously days 3, 6, 10, and 13, and dexamethasone 40mg orally days 3, 6, 10, and 13 of each 21 day cycle during induction. In maintenance, participants received plerixafor, bortezomib, and dexamethasone days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of each 35 day cycle. Participants were treated until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
This study enrolled and followed 125 acutely infected HIV+ men. It measured how transmission risks and partnership dynamics change over time among recently HIV-infected individuals and their partners comparing their behavioral patterns with those with chronic HIV infection, no HIV infection, and HIV negative testers. Of special focus was the role of drug use, especially methamphetamine, in affecting behaviors over time, and how partnership dynamics interact with drug use to allow for HIV transmission. The study compared behaviors of recently HIV infected men to those with long-term HIV infection and no HIV infection. We looked at how different types of sex partners affected one's drug use and consequently HIV transmission risks including having a prevalent sexually transmitted infection (STI). The study enrolled 321 recently tested men who have sex with men (MSM) and followed them for a year.
The invention relates to the powder inhalant of sumatriptan and the method of preparation thereof. The powder inhalant of sumatriptan of the invention comprises sumatriptan 5-90%wt, colloidal adherant(s) 1-95%, water insoluble binder(s) 0-90%wt, diluent(s) 0-94%, and surfactant(s) 0-2%wt. The formulation of the invention can be used for the treatment of migraine. After the administration of drugs by nasal inhalation, the drugs absorbed through membrana mucosa nasi, and acted systematically. The formulation can be present in the form of a single dose of solid powder, which has an increased stability. All the powder absorbs through the cavity of nose, which leads to less amount of drugs remained in the delivery device, and which deposits on the sites more easily. Moreover, the formulation of the invention can be carried by the patients conveniently.
A sham-controlled double-blind randomized study was undertaken. 20 patients with chronic stroke were randomized into active rTMS group (n=7), active cTBS group (n=7) and sham cTBS group (n=6). In the active rTMS group, 10 sessions of intact hemispheric upper extremity motor area (M1) were targeted and inhibitor rTMS was applied with a frequency of 1 Hz consisting of 1200 pulses for 20 minutes. In the active cTBS group, 10 sessions of intact hemispheric upper extremity motor area (M1) were targeted and cTBS was administered for a total of 600 pulses consisting of 3 burst stimulations of 50 Hz repeated every 200 milliseconds for 40 seconds. Sham cTBS was applied in the same protocol but using sham coil. Within 30 minutes after TMS sessions, all patients underwent 10 sessions of joint range of motion, stretching, strengthening, balance and coordination exercises, hand rehabilitation and daily living activities under the guidance of a physiotherapist, regardless of which group they were in. Upper Extremity Fugl-Meyer Motor Function Scale, Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Motor Activity Log-28 (MAL-28) and Brunnstrom upper extremity and hand motor recovery stage were assessed at pre-treatment, post-treatment and follow up at 4 weeks.
Perforation (total or partial, including penetration/embedment of Skyla in the uterine wall or cervix) may occur most often during insertion, although the perforation may not be detected until sometime later. The incidence of perforation during clinical trials was < 0.1%.

The risk of uterine perforation is increased in women who have recently given birth, and in women who are breastfeeding at the time of insertion. In a large postmarketing safety study conducted in the US, the risk of uterine perforation was highest when insertion occurred within ≤ 6 weeks postpartum, and also higher with breastfeeding at the time of insertion [see Adverse Reactions (6.2)]. 

The risk of perforation may be increased if Skyla is inserted when the uterus is fixed, retroverted or not completely involuted.

If perforation occurs, locate and remove Skyla. Surgery may be required. Delayed detection or removal of Skyla in case of perforation may result in migration outside the uterine cavity, adhesions, peritonitis, intestinal perforations, intestinal obstruction, abscesses and erosion of adjacent viscera. In addition, perforation may reduce contraceptive efficacy and result in pregnancy.
PURPOSE: Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is an aging-related disease. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may cause MAFLD. This study aimed to explore whether or not intermittent hypoxia (IH), the hallmark of OSA, induces liver aging through oxidative stress.
METHODS: C57BL/6J male mice were administered normal air (control), IH, or antioxidant tempol + IH daily for 6 weeks before the collection of serum and liver tissue samples. A histological examination was conducted to assess liver aging. ELISA was performed to measure liver function indicator levels in the serum and oxidative stress indicator activities in the liver. Western blot analysis was carried out to determine the protein expression of the markers related to oxidative stress, inflammation, and senescence.
RESULTS: Compared with control, IH resulted in significant increases in serum ALT, AST, and TG levels in mice (all P < 0.001), along with lobular inflammation and accumulation of collagen and fat in the liver. The protein levels of inflammatory factors and senescent markers were significantly increased in the IH mouse liver compared with those in the control mouse liver. Meanwhile, IH significantly reduced SOD and CAT activities while enhancing p22phox and Nrf2 protein expression in mouse liver compared with control. Importantly, antioxidant therapy with tempol effectively abrogated the effects of IH on oxidative stress response and aging-related liver injury.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that IH induces liver inflammation and aging through oxidative stress. OSA may exacerbate target organ aging and participate in target organ damage. Strategies targeting oxidative stress may prevent and treat OSA-related MAFLD.

Further disclosed and claimed are methods for extracting IFN-.beta. from a microbial host transformed to produce it and then purifying and formulating said IFN-.beta. and methods for screening for other polyhydric non-detergent stabilizer/solubilizers or combinations thereof as solubilizer/stabilizers for pharmaceutical compositions of IFN-.beta..
BACKGROUND: The potential benefits of robotic-assisted compared with laparoscopic surgery for locally advanced cancer have not been sufficiently proven by prospective studies. One factor is speculated to be the lack of strict surgeon criteria. The aim of this study was to assess outcomes for robotic surgery in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer with strict surgeon experience criteria.
METHODS: A criterion was set requiring surgeons to have performed more than 40 robotically assisted operations for rectal cancer. Between March 2020 and May 2022, patients with rectal cancer (distance from the anal verge of 12 cm or less, cT2-T4a, cN0-N3, cM0, or cT1-T4a, cN1-N3, cM0) were registered. The primary endpoint was the rate positive circumferential resection margin (CRM) from the pathological specimen. Secondary endpoints were surgical outcomes, pathological results, postoperative complications, and longterm outcomes.
RESULTS: Of the 321 registered patients, 303 were analysed, excluding 18 that were ineligible. At diagnosis: stage I (n = 68), stage II (n = 84) and stage III (n = 151). Neoadjuvant therapy was used in 56 patients. There were no conversions to open surgery. The median console time to rectal resection was 170 min, and the median blood loss was 5 ml. Fourteen patients had a positive CRM (4.6%). Grade III-IV postoperative complications were observed in 13 patients (4.3%).
CONCLUSION: Robotic-assisted surgery is feasible for locally advanced rectal cancer when strict surgeon criteria are used.
Intraosseous arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are uncommon high-flow vascular malformation that can affect the maxilla or mandible. AVM may present with aspecific and misleading signs and symptoms. The diagnosis is often accidental and bleeding may represent the first symptom. Radiographically, there are few characteristic features and misdiagnosis is easy. Here we report the case of a young male affected by arteriovenous fistula on the right side of the mandible initially misdiagnosed as a cystic lesion. The patient underwent transarterial embolization of the vascular malformation and subsequently the lesion was surgically removed. 1-year follow-up showed complete healing of the mandibular bone and absence of recurrence. Intraosseous arteriovenous malformations are rare entities. However, due to their harmfulness, both clinicians and radiologists must be aware of this type of lesion and should always consider them in the differential diagnosis of osteolytic lesions.
BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have become the recommended first-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without driver gene mutations. However, data on the failure patterns of first-line ICIs monotherapy is limited, and the optimal strategy for subsequent treatment remains controversial.
METHODS: Advanced NSCLC patients receiving first-line ICIs monotherapy at Guangdong Lung Cancer Institute between December 2017 and October 2021 were identified. The progressive sites were recorded to analyze failure patterns. Post-progression survival (PPS) was compared between different treatment regimens.
RESULTS: A total of 121 patients receiving first-line ICIs monotherapy were identified, with a median progression-free survival of 8.6 months. Sixty-five patients had available imaging at diagnosis as well as progressive disease, with 56.9% showing oligoprogression. For those with progression in existing lesions, the most common sites were the liver (77.8%) and lung parenchyma (62.5%), while progression with new lesions frequently occurred in the liver (32.0%). Fifty patients with recorded subsequent treatment were included in the analysis of subsequent treatment patterns. Patients treated with anti-angiogenesis therapy could get better PPS (HR: 0.275, P = 0.013). Isolated oligoprogression occurred most often in the lung parenchyma and intracranial lesions. More than half of these patients continued immunotherapy after local treatment, with a 2.5-year PPS rate of 51.4%.
CONCLUSION: The liver was the most common site of progression on first-line ICIs monotherapy. Anti-angiogenesis-based therapy might be an optimal regimen at the time of progression. Patients with isolated oligoprogressive could still benefit from immunotherapy after local treatment.
Parenteral preparations of phospholipid-associated anti-inflammatories (PL-AIs) are described to treat pain/inflammation, with reduced gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity. The PL-AIs can be composed of phosphatidylcholine (“PC”) associated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (“NSAIDs”). To prepare the PL-AIs, a phospholipid is mixed with an NSAID in a polar solvent, solvent is removed, suspended in an aqueous medium and sterilized by filtration or other acceptable method. Alternatively, the phospholipid can be mixed with an injectable preparation of an NSAID. The PL-AIs, and particularly PC associated with the NSAIDs, indomethacin, ibuprofen or diclofenac are useful for treating Patent Ductus Arteriosus in low birth weight infants to reduce the incidence of GI injury that may be manifest as Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) or Spontaneous Intestinal Perforation (SIP). Other applications of the parenteral PL-AIs include prevention of: retinopathy of prematurity; and of pain from conditions associated with surgery, trauma, Sickle Cell Anemia and neural inflammation/injury.
Coronavirus infectious disease-19 (COVID-19) is a pandemic characterized by serious lung disease and thrombotic events in the venous and circulation trees, which represent a harmful clinical sign of poor outcome. Thrombotic events are more frequent in patients with severe disease requiring intensive care units and are associated with platelet and clotting activation. However, after resolution of acute infection, patients may still have clinical sequelae, the so-called long-COVID-19, including thrombotic events again in the venous and arterial circulation. The mechanisms accounting for thrombosis in acute and long COVID-19 have not been fully clarified; interactions of COVID-19 with angiotensin converting enzyme 2 or toll-like receptor family or infection-induced cytokine storm have been suggested to be implicated in endothelial cells, leucocytes, and platelets to elicit clotting activation in acute as well in chronic phase of the disease. In acute COVID-19, prophylactic or full doses of anticoagulants exert beneficial effects even if the dosage choice is still under investigation; however, a residual risk still remains suggesting a need for a more appropriate therapeutic approach. In long COVID-19 preliminary data provided useful information in terms of antiplatelet treatment but definition of candidates for thrombotic prophylaxis is still undefined.
Participants randomized to the behavioral intervention group will be provided with a mobile APP which incorporates behavioral support including health knowledge education, mental health counseling, diet advice, exercise guidance and weight management. Meanwhile, the behavioral support will be modified by endocrinologists, dieticians, sports medicine professionals and psychologists individually based on the feedback of their performance recorded in the APP. Every three months, participants in the intervention group will be back to their research centers and be collected with information including HbA1c levels, blood pressure, heart rate tests and adverse events. Investigators conduct face-to-face health education, lifestyle guidance, mobile APP software inspection. Every one year, 75g OGTT (0min,60min, 120min points of blood glucose and insulin levels), liver and kidney function, blood lipids, glycosylated hemoglobin, urine routine and electrocardiogram will be evaluated.
