In pregnant female rats given oral gavage doses of 2, 25, 50 mg/kg/day cinacalcet during gestation, no teratogenicity was observed at doses up to 50 mg/kg/day (exposure 4 times those resulting with a human oral dose of 180 mg/day based on Area Under the Curve [AUC] comparison). Decreased fetal body weights were observed at all doses (less than 1 to 4 times a human oral dose of 180 mg/day based on AUC comparison) in conjunction with maternal toxicity (decreased food consumption and body weight gain).

In pregnant female rabbits given oral gavage doses of 2, 12, 25 mg/kg/day cinacalcet during gestation, no adverse fetal effects were observed (exposures less than with a human oral dose of 180 mg/day based on AUC comparisons). Reductions in maternal food consumption and body weight gain were seen at doses of 12 and 25 mg/kg/day. Sensipar has been shown to cross the placental barrier in rabbits.

In pregnant rats given oral gavage doses of 5, 15, 25 mg/kg/day cinacalcet during gestation through lactation, no adverse fetal or pup (post-weaning) effects were observed at 5 mg/kg/day (exposures less than with a human therapeutic dose of 180 mg/day based on AUC comparisons). Higher doses of 15 and 25 mg/kg/day cinacalcet (exposures 2 to 3 times a human oral dose of 180 mg/day based on AUC comparisons) were accompanied by maternal signs of hypocalcemia (periparturient mortality and early postnatal pup loss), and reductions in postnatal maternal and pup body-weight gain.

There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of Sensipar in pregnant women. Sensipar should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.

Women who become pregnant during Sensipar treatment are encouraged to enroll in Amgen’s Pregnancy Surveillance Program. Patients or their physicians should call 1-800-77-AMGEN (1-800-772-6436) to enroll.

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to develop and validate a prediction model in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) based on machine learning algorithms.
METHODS: Patients who met the criteria for inclusion were identified in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV (MIMIC-IV) database and divided according to the validation (n = 2440) and development (n = 9756, 80%) queues. Ensemble stepwise feature selection method was used to screen for effective features. The prediction models of short-term mortality were developed by seven machine learning algorithms. Ten-fold cross-validation was used to verify the performance of the algorithm in the development queue. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC) was used to evaluate the differentiation accuracy and performance of the prediction model in the validation queue. The best-performing model was interpreted by Shapley additive explanations (SHAP).
RESULTS: A total of 12,196 patients were enrolled in this study. Eleven variables were finally chosen to develop the prediction model. The AUC of the random forest (RF) model was the highest value both in the Ten-fold cross-validation and evaluation (AUC: 0.798, 95% CI: 0.774-0.821). According to the SHAP plots, old age, low Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, high AKI stage, reduced urine output, high Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS II), high respiratory rate, low temperature, low absolute lymphocyte count, high creatinine level, dysnatremia, and low body mass index (BMI) increased the risk of poor prognosis.
CONCLUSIONS: The RF model developed in this study is a good predictor of in-hospital mortality for patients with SA-AKI in the intensive care unit (ICU), which may have potential applications in mortality prediction.

BACKGROUND: Individuals with congenital solitary functioning kidney (SFK) are at an increased risk of kidney damage. According to some studies, the risk is higher in unilateral kidney agenesis (UKA) than in unilateral multicystic dysplastic kidney (UMCDK). We hypothesized that with early detection of children with UKA and UMCDK, there would be no difference in the presence of hypertension, proteinuria, and reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) between UKA and UMCDK.
METHODS: Based on a long-term follow-up protocol, we evaluated a cohort of 160 children followed from birth for SFK (84 with UKA and 76 with UMCDK) detected by prenatal or routine neonatal ultrasound screening. Hypertension, proteinuria, and reduced GFR were monitored as markers of kidney damage. We compared the characteristics and outcomes of the subgroups of children with UKA and UMCDK.
RESULTS: GFR was reduced in 42 (26.2%) children, of whom 41 showed only mild reduction. Hypertension and proteinuria were found in 22 (13.8%) and 14 (8.8%) children, respectively. Combined kidney damage was present in 57 (35.6%) children. The UMCDK and UKA subgroups differed in GFR at final examination, with UMCDK patients being significantly more likely to have normal GFR compared to UKA patients (82% vs. 67%; p = 0.039).
CONCLUSIONS: One third of the children showed signs of SFK damage, albeit mild. Patients with UKA had reduced GFR significantly more often than those with UMCDK, but did not differ in the rates of hyperfiltration injury or congenital anomalies of the kidneys and urinary tract (CAKUT) in SFK.

According to various research, the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS) is strongly influenced by genetic variations. Population, familial, and molecular studies provide strong empirical support for a polygenic pattern of inheritance, mainly due to relatively common allelic variants in the general population. The strongest MS susceptibility locus, which was unmistakably identified in tested populations, is the major histocompatibility complex on chromosome 6p21.3. However, the effect of a given predisposing variant remains modest, so there is the possibility that multiple gene-gene and/or gene-environment interactions could significantly increase the contribution of specific variants to the overall genetic risk. Furthermore, as is known, susceptibility genes can be subject to epigenetic modifications, which greatly increase the complexity of MS heritability. Investigating epigenetic and environmental factors can provide new opportunities for the molecular basis of the MS, which shows complicated pathogenesis. Although studies of epigenetic changes in MS only began in the last decade, a growing body of literature suggests that these may be involved in the development of MS. Here, we summarize recent studies regarding epigenetic changes related to MS initiation and progression. Furthermore, we discuss how current studies address important clinical questions and how future studies could be used in clinical practice.
Subjects will receive L-NMMA, ketorolac, then ascorbic acid via intravenous catheter. L-NMMA will have a 3 mg kg-1 loading dose over 5-minutes (36 mg kg-1 hr-1), followed by a maintenance dose of 1 mg kg-1 hr-1. Ketorolac will have a 0.3 mg kg-1 loading dose over 5 minutes (3.6 mg kg-1 hr-1) with a minimum loading dose of 15 mg. This will be followed by a maintenance dose of 0.03 mg kg-1 hr-1. Ascorbic acid will have a loading dose of 0.035 g kg fat-free mass-1 over 5-minutes (0.42 g kg fat-free mass-1 hr-1), followed by a maintenance dose of 0.060 g kg fat-free mass-1 hr-1. Cerebral blood flow velocity will be measured throughout the drug infusions via transcranial Doppler ultrasound.
This clinical trial will test a promising drug for treatment of long COVID in 300 adults who 1) are post-COVID-19 (at least 3 months since initial COVID symptoms and/or test confirming SARS-CoV-2 infection); and 2) have evidence of neurocognitive Long COVID (e.g., "brain fog", trouble concentrating, etc) which is causing suffering and/or impairment. The trial will determine whether fluvoxamine (1) reduces long COVID symptoms, 2) improves cognitive performance. Fluvoxamine is an SSRI (FDA approved for OCD) that also activates the sigma-1 receptor (an immunomodulatory receptor). It has been shown to prevent clinical deterioration and hospitalization in outpatients with acute COVID-19 (STOP COVID and TOGETHER trials). For the current study, we will randomize participants to fluvoxamine which is initially dosed at their preference, vs. placebo. This is done in the following manner. First, each participant will receive an acute bout of fluvoxamine: one dose of 25mg, then one dose of 50mg, then one dose of 100mg. We will assess their subjective reaction to these test doses and use the information to randomize them to an individually tailored course of fluvoxamine, vs. a matched placebo, for 16 weeks. The benefits of this are (1) participants are more likely to accept randomization and continue in the study if randomized to a dose they've already tested and accepted; (2) participants' initial response, if any, to the acute dose may allow future precision-medicine use of fluvoxamine, allowing physicians to give patients a test dose and then a full trial preferentially to participants who are likely to respond. After the randomized portion of the trial, participants will be given an opportunity to participate in open-label treatment with fluvoxamine for 16 weeks. At the end of treatment, the study medication will be tapered off over an approximate 1-2 week period, depending on the final dose of study medication, and adjusted as appropriate if they experience discontinuation symptoms. Outcome assessments will be a combination of patient-reported assessments and validated neuropsychological tests.
There have been reports of sudden death after initiating therapy with somatropin in pediatric patients with Prader-Willi syndrome who had one or more of the following risk factors: severe obesity, history of upper airway obstruction or sleep apnea, or unidentified respiratory infection. Male patients with one or more of these factors may be at greater risk than females. Patients with Prader-Willi syndrome should be evaluated for signs of upper airway obstruction and sleep apnea before initiation of treatment with somatropin. If, during treatment with somatropin, patients show signs of upper airway obstruction (including onset of, or increased, snoring) and/or new onset sleep apnea, treatment should be interrupted. All patients with Prader-Willi syndrome treated with somatropin should also have effective weight control and be monitored for signs of respiratory infection, which should be diagnosed as early as possible and treated aggressively [see Contraindications (4)]. ZOMACTON is not indicated for the treatment of pediatric patients who have growth failure due to Prader-Willi syndrome.

INTRODUCTION: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is defined by hepatic steatosis and cardiometabolic risk factors like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dyslipidemia. Persistent metabolic injury may promote inflammatory processes resulting in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and liver fibrosis. Mechanistic insights helped to identify potential drug targets, thereby supporting the development of novel compounds modulating disease drivers.
AREAS COVERED: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has recently approved the thyroid hormone receptor β-selective thyromimetic resmetirom as the first compound to treat MASH and liver fibrosis. This review provides a comprehensive overview of current and potential future pharmacotherapeutic options and their modes of action. Lessons learned from terminated clinical trials are discussed together with the first results of trials investigating novel combinational therapeutic approaches.
EXPERT OPINION: Approval of resmetirom as the first anti-MASH agent may revolutionize the therapeutic landscape. However, long-term efficacy and safety data for resmetirom are currently lacking. In addition, heterogeneity of MASLD reflects a major challenge to define effective agents. Several lead compounds demonstrated efficacy in reducing obesity and hepatic steatosis, while anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic effects of monotherapy appear less robust. Better mechanistic understanding, exploration of combination therapies, and patient stratification hold great promise for MASLD therapy.
Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare, aggressive hematologic malignancy with poor outcomes. The World Health Organization (WHO) redefined BDCN as a distinct disease entity in 2016. BPDCN arises from plasmacytoid dendritic cells, manifesting primarily in the skin, bone marrow, and lymph nodes, occasionally involving the central nervous system (CNS). This presents challenges in diagnosis and treatment, with CNS involvement often overlooked in standard diagnostic workups due to BPDCN's rarity and patients often being neurologically asymptomatic at diagnosis. CNS involvement typically emerges during relapse, yet clinical trials often exclude such cases, limiting our understanding of its development and treatment. Treatment options for CNS involvement include intrathecal (IT) chemotherapies like methotrexate and cytarabine, often in combination with systemic agents. Tagraxofusp and traditional regimens for acute myeloid leukemia show limited success at preventing CNS relapse, prompting exploration of combined therapies like hyperfractionated cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone (HyperCVAD) with venetoclax and adding IT chemotherapy to other backbones. Ongoing clinical trials investigating emerging therapies offer hope despite limited focus on CNS implications. Trials incorporating CNS-involved patients aim to pioneer novel treatment approaches, potentially reshaping BPDCN management. Understanding CNS involvement's complexities in BPDCN remains crucial for tailored treatments and better patient outcomes.
In optic nerve diameter measurements; A layer of water-soluble sterile gel was applied to the closed upper eyelid. The linear 10-5 MHz ultrasound probe was carefully placed on the upper eyelid over the gel. The entrance of the optic nerve to the orbital globe in 2D mode was displayed on the monitor without applying too much pressure. After finding the optimal contrast between the retrobulbar echogenic fat tissue and vertical hypoechoic band 23, the diameter of the optic nerve sheath was measured 3 mm behind the optic disc using an electronic caliper.

Depression is a serious medical illness characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and lack of interest in daily activities. It can interfere with daily functioning and quality of life. Despite decades of research, the pathophysiology of depression remains incompletely understood. The correlation between depression and inflammation has recently attracted considerable attention. This study investigated the potential antidepressant effect of etanercept, a tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibitor, utilizing a chronic mild stress (CMS) model in rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into two groups; one following a non-stressed protocol and the other a stressed protocol for 5 weeks. From the beginning of the third week, rats were treated either with saline daily or with etanercept twice a week (0.3 mg/kg, i.p.) or with fluoxetine daily (10 mg/kg, i.p) as a reference. Etanercept exhibited comparable effects to those of fluoxetine in counteracting CMS-induced behavioral manifestation in the forced swimming and splash tests. Etanercept also restored serotonin and norepinephrine levels to control values in the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Moreover, the current study verified the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of etanercept. Interestingly, etanercept halted the expression of both norepinephrine and serotonin transporters in stressed rats. This could be attributed to abrogation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT-3) pathways in the PFC. The findings of the present study contribute to the understanding of the potential of etanercept as an antidepressant and provide insights into the neurobiological mechanisms underlying its therapeutic effects.
