Aim of the study is to determine the effects of classical and harp music practice on physiological parameters (heart rate, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation value), cerebral oxygenation value (rSO2) and comfort of premature infants.

It is a parallel, three-group randomized controlled trial with a prospective, pretest, posttest experimental design. The study will be carried out in Selcuk University Medical Faculty Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). A total of 84 premature babies will be included in the study, including the group to be listened to classical music (n=28), the group to be listened to harp music (n=28), and the control group (n=28). Triple blocks were created in the computer environment so that the premature infants to be included in the study could be assigned to three study groups using the balanced block randomization method (randomization.com). The randomization will be hidden from the researcher conducting the trial until the administration begins. The researcher will be given 84 envelopes and will begin to open the envelopes when they meet the baby. The researcher will learn which group each baby is in just before the application. Data collection tools; newborn Descriptive Information Form, physiological parameter and rSO2 follow-up form, and Premature infant comfort scale. The rSO2 value will be measured with the NIRS monitor. During the data collection phase, the purpose of the study will be explained to the parents of the premature infants by the researcher first, and informed about the study and consent will be obtained from the parents who agreed to participate in the study through the "Informed Voluntary Consent Form". To venture groups (classical and harp music); After feeding, a music box and a decibel meter will be placed in the incubator and classical music will be turned on at 50-55 dB. Just before the music is played, the premature infants physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded. For 30 minutes, music will be played to the baby according to the intervention group (classical and harp music). After 30 minutes, the baby's physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded again. Each session will be held in this way, a total of 15 sessions of music will be applied to thepremature infants, and the baby's physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded before and after each session. The control group is; premature infants in this group are those who take the clinical routine without being exposed to any music. After feeding, the baby's physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded. They will not be exposed to any music and sound for 30 minutes and there will be no intervention. At the 30th minute, the premature infants physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded. Evaluation of the data will be done in the computer environment with the SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) 22.0 package program. Partial eta squared will be calculated for the effect size and the significance level will be accepted as p\<0.05.
Pre-operative patient education was given to the children in the first experimental group by the service nurse. The children in the second experimental group were given pre-operative patient education by the service nurse, in addition, patient visits were provided by the operating room nurse and the operating room environment was explained through play. The children in the third experimental group were given pre-operative patient education by the service nurse, after which they listened to the mother's voice recording and loving words until they went to the operating room. It was determined that 69.7% of the mothers of the children participating in the study were 30 years and older, 81.8% were married, 37.9% were undergraduate graduates, and 51.5% were unemployed. The general anxiety disorder levels of those who had no previous surgery experience were found significantly higher than those who had previous surgery experience (p\<0.05). In terms of affecting the anxiety level, there was a significant difference between the preoperative methods (p\<0.05). It was determined that the education given by both the service nurse and the operating room nurse together was more effective than other methods in reducing the anxiety levels of children, and there was a statistically significant difference between them. (p\<0.05)

A prosthetic foot (70) incorporates a foot keel (71) and a calf shank (72) connected to the foot keel to form an ankle joint area of the prosthetic foot.  The foot keel has forefoot and hindfoot portions and an upwardly arched midfoot portion extending between the forefoot and midfoot portions. The calf shank includes a downward convexly curved lower end in the form of a spiral which is adjustably attached at a portion thereof to the foot keel by way of a coupling element. The calf shank extends upward anteriorly from the spiral to an upstanding upper end thereof. The coupling element includes a stop of a predetermined size to limit dorsiflexion of the calf shank in gait. The calf shank creates an integrated ankle and calf shank with the foot keel which has a variable radii response outcome similar to the disclosed parabola shaped calf shank while being readily covered by a cosmetic covering for the foot, ankle and lower leg.
The process comprises addition of a filtration coadjuvant to increase the flow in hot clavulanic acid fermentation stock. The filtrate impurities are improved by deproteinising at pH 40 or with acetone, followed by adsorption in ion exchange resins, for washing with NaCl soln. and elution of the acid salt. On using acetone, the stock is stirred 5-10 minutes and left to rest for 20 minutes, for elimination of the ppte. by centrifugation or filtration. The acetone is recovered by low-pressure distillation prior to the adsorption.
Multicenter, prospective study. 105 patients with stable chest pain, and moderate CAD, statin naive (and LDL cholesterol \>2 mM), and at least one translesional FFRct value \<0.81 are randomized (patients with significant CAD in the left main or other proximal segments are excluded from the study) to either "atorvastatin 40 mg daily" or "rosuvastatin 40 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg daily" treatment. Patients are followed for 18 months with 2 CT scans performed at 9 months and one at 18 months. At each 4 CT scans blinded corelab analyses of plaque characteristics and volumes as well as FFRct calculation (HeartFlow) are performed. The primary endpoint is changes in FFRct values from 0 to 18 months. Secondary endpoints are 1 changes in FFRct values from 0 to 9 months of follow-up, and changes in low density plaques volumes and number of lesions with positive remodeling over time relative to changes in LDL cholesterol.
Trichomes are specialized hair-like structures in the epidermal cells of the above-ground parts of plants and help to protect them from pests and pathogens, and produce valuable metabolites. Chrysanthemum morifolium, which is used in tea products, has both ornamental and medicinal value; however, it is susceptible to infection by the fungus Alternaria alternata, which can result in substantial economic losses. Increasing the density of glandular trichomes enhances disease resistance and improves the production of medicinal metabolites in chrysanthemums, and jasmonate (JA) is known to promote the formation of trichomes in various plants. However, it remains unclear whether glandular trichomes in chrysanthemums are regulated by JA. In addition, grafting, a technique that can improve plant resistance to biotic stresses, has been poorly examined for its impact on glandular trichomes, terpenoids, and disease resistance. In this study, we demonstrate that grafting with Artemisia vulgaris rootstocks improves the resistance of chrysanthemum scions to A. alternata. Heterografted chrysanthemums exhibited higher trichome density and terpenoid content compared to self-grafted counterparts. Transcriptome analysis highlighted the significant role of CmJAZ1-like in disease resistance in heterografted chrysanthemums. Lines overexpressing CmJAZ1-like exhibited sensitivity to A. alternata, and this was characterized by reduced glandular trichome density and limited terpenoid content. Conversely, CmJAZ1-like silenced lines exhibited resistance to A. alternata and showed increased glandular trichome density and terpenoid content. Higher JA content was found in the heterografted chrysanthemum scions compared to self-grafted ones. Furthermore, we established that JA promoted the development of glandular trichomes and the synthesis of terpenoids while also inducing the degradation of CmJAZ1-like proteins in chrysanthemums. Our findings suggest that higher JA increases trichome density and terpenoid content, thereby enhancing resistance to A. alternata by regulating CmJAZ1-like in heterografted chrysanthemums.
INTRODUCTION: Traumatic shoulder dislocation is a common shoulder injury, especially among the young and active population. More than 95% of dislocations are anterior, in which the humeral head is forced beyond the anterior glenoid rim. The injury leads to increased joint laxity and recurrence rates are high. There is evidence that the shoulder biomechanics and neuromuscular control change following dislocation, but the existing literature is scarce, and it remains to be established if and how these parameters are useful in the clinical setting. The aim of this exploratory prospective cohort study is to investigate biomechanical and neuromuscular outcomes in patients with traumatic anterior shoulder instability undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair, to test the hypothesis that examinations of these characteristics are applicable in the clinical setting to assess shoulder instability.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a prospective multicentre cohort study with repeated measures of 30 patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair. With carefully selected and completely non-invasive examination methods, we will investigate biomechanical and neuromuscular outcomes in the affected shoulders once presurgically and twice post surgically at 6 and 12 months. Patients' contralateral shoulders are investigated once to establish a preinjury level.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The study was approved by the Capital Region Ethics Committee (journal-no: H-21027799) and the Capital Region Knowledge Center for Data Reviews (journal-no: P-2021-842) before patient recruitment began. The study results will be published in international peer-reviewed journals, online and in other relevant media, presented at medical conventions and disseminated to clinicians and patients as appropriate.
TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT05250388.
Participants received Tocilizumab (TCZ) 4 mg/kg as a 60 minute intravenous infusion every 4 weeks for a total of 6 infusions plus non-biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) of the investigator's choice for 24 weeks. Participants not achieving a 20% improvement from baseline in tender and swollen joint counts at Week 8 were to have their dosage increased to 8 mg/kg, per protocol. Beginning at Week 12 dosage increase to 8 mg/kg was at the discretion of the investigator. Participants who completed the 24 week treatment period were offered the option of entering a long-term extension phase at the investigator's discretion.
In this group, we only perform the 4-7-8 Breathing Technique by telling the participant to inhale to the count of 4. Hold their breath for 7 counts. To the count of 8, release air via their mouth.
BACKGROUND: Improving palliative and end-of-life care for people with dementia is a growing priority globally. This study aimed to integrate multiple perspectives on end-of-life care for people with dementia and carers, to identify clinically relevant areas for improvement.
METHODS: The mixed-methods study involved surveys, interviews, and workshops with two participant groups: healthcare professionals and carers (individuals who provided care and support to a family member or friend). Healthcare professionals were invited to complete an online adapted version of the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care, End-of-Life Care Toolkit: Clinician Survey Questions. Carers completed a hard copy or online adapted version of the Views of Informal Carers-Evaluation of Services (Short form) (VOICES-SF) questionnaire. Interview schedules were semi-structured, and workshops followed a co-design format. Findings were integrated narratively using a weaving approach.
RESULTS: Five areas in which we can improve care for people with dementia at the end of life, were identified: 1) Timely recognition of end of life; 2) Conversations about palliative care and end of life; 3) Information and support for people with dementia and carers; 4) Person-and-carer-centred care; 5) Accessing quality, coordinated care.
CONCLUSIONS: There are multiple areas where we can improve the quality of end-of-life care people with dementia receive. The findings demonstrate that the heterogeneous and challenging experiences of living with and caring for people with dementia necessitate a multidisciplinary, multifaceted approach to end-of-life care. The identified solutions, including care coordination, can guide local development of co-designed models of end-of-life care for people with dementia.
PURPOSE:To provide a shampoo composition containing an anionic surface active agent free of ether bond in combination with a smectite clay having a specific hydroxyl value, and capable of imparting natural luster to the hair. CONSTITUTION:The objective shampoo composition contains (A) an anionic surface active agent free of ether bond (e.g. alpha-olefinsulfonic acid salt, fatty acid salt, etc.) as active detergent component and (B) a smectite clay having a hydroxyl value of >=10 (e.g. montmorillonite, beidellite, saponite, etc.) as a luster- imparting component. The amounts of the components A and B are 10-40wt% and 0.1-20wt%, respectively in liquid shampoo, and 10-90wt% and 0.1-90wt%, respectively in powdery shampoo. The amount of the component B is preferably >=1pt.wt. per 100pts.wt. of the component A. Since the adhesion of the component B to the hair is not inhibited by the component A, natural luster can be imparted to the hair.
This is a prospective study in a cohort of patients with idiopathic PD who are visiting the Parkinson's outpatient clinic. The aim of the study is to evaluate the correlation between oculometric measures and MDS-UPDRS score in subjects who meet the inclusion criteria and who provide a signed Informed Consent.

This study is designed to evaluate the correlation between oculometric measures and the Movement Disorder Society-Sponsored Revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS). Subjects will be evaluated at their visit to the clinic. The evaluations will include an MDS-UPDRS examination by a certified neurologist and other tests. In addition, all patients will undergo a NeuraLight session for oculometric evaluation along with eye-tracking recordings. All assessments will be performed during a clinic visit unless authorized to be conducted remotely. In addition, 500 healthy subjects will be evaluated, undergoing a NeuraLight session for oculometric evaluation along with eye-tracking recordings.

The selected volume of interest of the CT-image showing portal vein vasculature was overlaid onto the fluoroscopic display as real-time 3D CT-image guidance during the procedure.
FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: invention refers to pharmacy and medical industry and can be used to produce purified inulin from elecampane roots. That is ensured by three-step extraction by purified water. Then, plant material is separated by filtration. Further, the precipitate is washed on the filter. Filter with precipitate is dried at temperature from 100 to 105 °C to constant weight. Raw material used is crushed roots of elecampane high to linear size of 0.5–1.0 mm. Extraction is carried out at raw material : extractant ratio of 1 g : 15 ml for 30 minutes. Prior to flushing, inulin is removed from impurities, where precipitate obtained after filtration under vacuum is dissolved in heated to 80 °C purified water. Then 50 % calcium chloride solution is added to it at rate of 5 drops per 1 g of initially taken vegetal raw material and 0.5 g of finely dispersed aluminum oxide powder. It is held for 20 minutes, then it is filtered under vacuum at residual pressure 0.4–0.8 atm. Produced filtrate is successively passed through ion-exchange columns with anionite in hydroxyl form AV-17-8 and cationite in hydrogen form KU-2-8 to pH of eluate 6.5–7.5 and degree of purity of inulin equal to 97 %. After that for sedimentation of inulin to eluate there added again is threefold amount of 95 % ethanol with stirring, cooling in freezing chamber at temperature of -18 °C for 1 hour. Precipitate is then filtered through a pre-dried ash-free paper filter under vacuum at residual pressure of 0.4–0.8 atm.EFFECT: invention enables to carry out deep purification of the end product from impurities with a degree of purity of 97±2 %, in the absence of use of hazardous and toxic substances.1 cl, 3 dwg, 1 ex
In order to assess the effects of enhanced patient-centered counseling (PCC), the patients assigned to this group will meet together with either Dr. Lewis or the Research Audiologist for approximately 30 minutes of counseling. In addition to the PCC techniques used in audiology, this counseling also will involve the core components of motivational interviewing. These principles and methods will be used to allow the patient to clearly express his/her expectations of, concerns about, and motivations for hearing-aid use. The spouses in this experimental group will be given information regarding VA services. This material will be reviewed with a member of the research team for about 30 minutes at the second visit.
The present invention discloses the morphology of hollow, double-shelled submicrometer particles generated through a rapid aerosol-based process. The inner shell is an essentially hydrophobic carbon layer of nanoscale dimension (5-20 nm), and the outer shell is a hydrophilic silica layer of approximately 5-40 nm, with the shell thickness being a function of the particle size. The particles are synthesized by exploiting concepts of salt bridging to lock in a surfactant (CTAB) and carbon precursors together with iron species in the interior of a droplet. This deliberate negation of surfactant templating allows a silica shell to form extremely rapidly, sealing in the organic species in the particle interior. Subsequent pyrolysis results in a buildup of internal pressure, forcing carbonaceous species against the silica wall to form an inner shell of carbon. The incorporation of magnetic iron oxide into the shells opens up applications in external stimuli-responsive nanomaterials.

Enteric routes of psychoactive alkaloid administration are slow to act or cause gastric irritation, and swallowing may be problematic for some patients. The potency of existing extracts is low due to impurities. Herein, a transmucosal psychoactive alkaloid composition including an extract is presented. The source may be a psychoactive mushroom or a lower potency, pre-existing extract. The alkaloids extracted are predominantly dephosphorylated rather than phosphorylated, and include psilocin, bufotenine, bufotenidine, norpsilocin, 4-hydroxytryptamine or N,N,N-trimethyl-4- hydroxytryptamine. The source may also include psilocybin, baeocystin, norbaeocystin or aeruginascin, which are dephosphorylated during extraction. The process for the composition includes purifying the extracted alkaloid using a resin treatment, and standardizing to a specific concentration by adding measured quantities of excipients. The composition includes the extracted alkaloids, a mucoadhesive polymer, a carrier, and optional further excipients. The composition is taken orally through the mucosa.
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to quantify the change in pressure on the cage during compression manipulation in lumbar interbody fusion. While the procedure involves applying compression between pedicle screws to press the cage against the endplate, the exact compression force remains elusive. We hypothesize that an intact facet joint might serve as a fulcrum, potentially reducing cage pressure.
METHODS: Pressure on the intervertebral disc cage was measured during compression manipulation in 4 donor cadavers undergoing lumbar interbody fusion. Unilateral facetectomy models with both normal and parallel compression and bilateral facetectomy models were included. A transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion cage with a built-in load cell measured the compression force.
RESULTS: Pressure data from 14 discs indicated a consistent precompression pressure average of 68.16 N. Following compression, pressures increased to 125.99 N and 140.84 N for normal and parallel compression postunilateral facetectomy, respectively, and to 154.58 N and 150.46 N for bilateral models. A strong linear correlation (correlation coefficient: 0.967, P < 0.0001) between precompression and postcompression pressures emphasized the necessity of sufficient precompression pressure for achieving desired postcompression outcomes. None of the data showed a decrease in compression force to the cage with the compression maneuver.
CONCLUSIONS: Both normal and parallel compression maneuvers effectively increased the pressure on the cage, irrespective of the facet joint resection status. Compression manipulation consistently enhanced compressive force on the cage. However, when baseline pressure is low, the manipulation might not yield significant increases in compression force. This underlines the essential role of meticulous precompression preparation in enhancing surgical outcomes.
