PURPOSE:To prepare a lipid metabolism-promoting agent containing a garlic essential oil, an allyl sulfide compound, a garlic processed product, and a garlic extract ingredient as active ingredients. CONSTITUTION:The lipid metabolism-promoting agent contains a garlic essential oil, an allyl sulfide compound, a garlic processed product, and a garlic extract ingredient, which are obtained by the below-described methods, as active ingredients and has an effect as an antiobesic agent because of having a fat metabolism-promoting action. (1) The garlic essential oil is obtained by removing skins from garlics and subsequently subjecting the garlics to a steam distillation treatment. (2) The allyl sulfide compound is obtained by purifying the garlic essential oil. (3) The garlic processing product is obtained by heating garlic flakes and simultaneously grinding the heated garlic flakes. (4) The garlic extract is obtained by deactivating enzymes contained in garlics, extracting the treated garlics with ethanol, subjecting the extract to an adsorption and a desorption treatment), powdering the treated extract, and subsequently heating the powdered extract.
Each exercise training session included 3 to 5 minutes of warm-up, range-of-motion exercises, interval training(aerobic training), cool-down, and post-exercise range-of-motion exercises. Patients exercise at 40 to 60% of maximum heart rate.
Polyamide compositions useful for personal care are disclosed, including film-forming concentrates and emulsions. Ethanol-based concentrates comprise a hydrophobic polyamide, which comprises a reaction product of either (a) a dimerized fatty acid, at least one C2-C4 carboxylic acid, and a polyamine component comprising ethylenediamine and 1 to 30 eq. % of one or more di- or triamines; or (b) a dimerized fatty acid, at least 50 wt. % of a C16-C22 unsaturated carboxylic acid, and at least one C2-C6 diamine. Personal care applications for the concentrates, including continuous sunscreens, fragrant body sprays or splashes, anti-acne medications, are included. Water-in-oil emulsions comprising the hydrophobic polyamides are storage-stable and provide water-resistant SPF for products such as sunscreens and body lotions.
OBJECTIVE: For patients with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/MHNSCC), platinum-free interval (PFI)-based differences in the effectiveness of rechallenge with platinum-based chemotherapy (PBCT) remain unknown. We aimed to evaluate the difference in platinum sensitivity based on PFI in R/MHNSCC.
METHODS: We retrospectively examined 80 patients with R/MHNSCC who underwent PBCT between 2001 and 2020. Treatment efficacy was compared between patients with prior PBCT for treatment of recurrence/metastasis or concurrent chemoradiotherapy during radical treatment (rechallenge group) and those without (control group). Patients with prior PBCT (rechallenge group) were stratified by PFI. PFI was defined as the period from the last dosing date with the previous platinum agent to rechallenge with PBCT.
RESULTS: Of 80 patients, 55 had been with prior PBCT (rechallenge group) and 25 had been without prior PBCT (control group). The rechallenge group was divided into three groups: PFI <6 months (10), PFI 6-11 months (17), and PFI ≥12 months (28). The PFI <6-month group had shorter overall survival (p=0.047, the log-rank test) and lower disease control rate (p=0.02, Fisher's exact test) than the control group. The PFI 6-11- and ≥12-month group outcomes did not significantly differ from those of the control group.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with PFI <6 months tend to have a poorer prognosis after rechallenge with PBCT than patients without prior PBCT, suggesting that PFI 6 months may be considered as a threshold of platinum resistance and rechallenge with PBCT may be a valid option in PFI ≥6 months.
Melatonin capsules will be prepared using hypromellose capsules containing 3 mg of the active component and identical excipient (Microcrystalline Cellulose) used in the placebo preparation. Melatonin will be administered orally three times a day for 14 days.
Since invasive cancer is associated with poor clinical outcomes, exploring the molecular mechanism underlying LUAD progression is crucial to improve the prognosis of patients with advanced disease. Herein, we found that MYO16-AS1 is expressed mainly in lung tissue but is notably downregulated in LUAD tissues. Overexpression of MYO16-AS1 inhibited the migration and invasion of LUAD cells. Mechanistic studies indicated that H3K27Ac modification mediated MYO16-AS1 transcription. Furthermore, we found that MYO16-AS1 competitively bound to the IGF2BP3 protein and in turn reduced IGF2BP3 protein binding to HK2 mRNA, decreasing HK2 mRNA stability and inhibiting glucose metabolism reprogramming and LUAD cell invasion in vitro and in vivo. The finding that the MYO16-AS1/IGF2BP3-mediated glucose metabolism reprogramming mechanism regulates HK2 expression provides novel insight into the process of LUAD invasion and suggests that MYO16-AS1 may be a therapeutic target for LUAD.
Participants will receive penpulimab for 3 cycles; follewed by 6 cycles of AVD; finally, penpulimab for 3 cycles. Cycle length = 28 days, Penpulimab and AVD will be administered on D1 and D15 of each cycle.
Abrupt withdrawal of phenytoin in epileptic patients may precipitate status epilepticus. When, in the judgement of the clinician, the need for dosage reduction, discontinuation, or substitution of alternative antiepileptic medication arises, this should be done gradually. However, in the event of an allergic or hypersensitivity reaction, rapid substitution of alternative therapy may be necessary. In this case, alternative therapy should be an antiepileptic drug not belonging to the hydantoin chemical class.

There have been a number of reports suggesting a relationship between phenytoin and the development of lymphadenopathy (local or generalized) including benign lymph node hyperplasia, pseudolymphoma, lymphoma, and Hodgkin's disease. Although a cause and effect relationship has not been established, the occurrence of lymphadenopathy indicates the need to differentiate such a condition from other types of lymph node pathology. Lymph node involvement may occur with or without symptoms and signs resembling serum sickness, eg, fever, rash, and liver involvement.

In all cases of lymphadenopathy, follow-up observation for an extended period is indicated and every effort should be made to achieve seizure control using alternative antiepileptic drugs.

Acute alcoholic intake may increase phenytoin serum levels, while chronic alcohol use may decrease serum levels.

In view of isolated reports associating phenytoin with exacerbation of porphyria, caution should be exercised in using this medication in patients suffering from this disease.
BACKGROUND: The uncertainty regarding the correlation between the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and diabetes within the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) necessitates further exploration. As indicators of obesity, the differences in the intensity of association between WWI, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference (WC) with diabetes are worth exploring. This investigation is undertaken to elucidate the association between WWI and diabetes in the NHANES dataset and to compare the extent to which BMI, WC, and WWI were closely associated with diabetes. Then, choose an obesity index that is more strongly associated with diabetes.
METHODS: A comprehensive cross-sectional stratified survey of 7,973 participants from the 2017-2020 NHANES was conducted. WWI is an anthropometric measure based on WC and weight. The formula is WWI (cm/√kg) = WC/√weight. The association between WWI and diabetes was investigated using weighted multiple logistic regression, smooth curve fitting, stratified analysis, and interaction testing.
RESULTS: The participants' average age was 50.84±17.34 years, and 50.68% of them were female. The detection rate of diabetes was 15.11%. This positive association was particularly notable among non-diabetic patients. For each unit increase in BMI and WC as continuous variables, the likelihood of developing diabetes in the fully adjusted model increased by 5% (OR = 1.05; 95%CI, 1.03-1.07) and 3% (OR = 1.03; 95%CI, 1.02-1.04), respectively, but for each one-unit increase in WWI, the likelihood of developing diabetes increased by 111% (OR = 2.11; 95% CI, 1.68-2.65). Tests of interactions revealed that in various subgroups, the association between diabetes and WWI remained steady.
CONCLUSIONS: We analyzed 2017-2020 NHANES data to explore the link between WWI and diabetes, finding a consistent positive correlation. The correlation between WWI and diabetes was stronger than that between WC and BMI. WWI seems to offer better potential aid in disease prevention and diagnosis.
Participants with surgically staged carcinosarcoma (CS) with no gross residual disease were initially administered ifosfamide (1.2 g/m2/day for 5 days) with cisplatin (20 mg/m2/day for 5 days) every 3 weeks for 3 cycles followed by pelvic external beam RT and brachytherapy followed by 3 additional cycles of ifosfamide (1.0 g/m2/day) with cisplatin with cisplatin (20 mg/m2/day for 5 days) evrey 3 weeks. cisplatin added toxicity without additional efficacy, so mid-study, cisplatin was eliminated.
A method for detecting cells (A) in a biological sample by treating a prepared sample with >= 2 different binding molecules (I) that recognize (A) and are labeled with different fluorescent dyes and detecting the fluorescent labeling of the sample, which is attached to a solid phase, is new. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) reagent kits for carrying out the method; (b) use of an antibody (Ab), directed to the 52-60 epitope on the urokinase receptor (uPAR), or its antigen-binding fragments, for preparation of a diagnostic or therapeutic agent directed against uPAR on tumor cells; (c) recombinant nucleic acid (II) encoding a polypeptide (III) with antibody properties that contains the CDR (complementarity determining region)3-VH sequence DGSMGGFDY and the CDR3-VL sequence LQHWNYPYT; and (d) the polypeptide (III) encoded by (II). ACTIVITY : Cytostatic. Mice were inoculated with 6 million human MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells that had been incubated beforehand with 0.2 mg of the antibody IIIF10 (directed against the urokinase receptor), and then treated every 3 days with 10 mg/kg of IIIF10, intraperitoneally. After 4 weeks, the mean volume of the primary tumors was about 0.8 cc in treated animals compared with 2.7 cc in controls. MECHANISM OF ACTION : Inhibiting growth, or killing, tumor cells by antibody-mediated blocking of essential functions, optionally combined with antibody-targeted delivery of toxins.
The investigators are comparing two different methods for helping Canadian Armed Forces veterans with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) manage everyday cognitive difficulties. Cognitive rehabilitation is a type of therapy that helps people with brain injury who have challenges in everyday thinking. The investigators have developed a streamlined version of this type of cognitive rehabilitation therapy that can be done in person or virtually and takes place over a 3-week period. The investigators will provide education materials only to one group and individual cognitive rehabilitation delivered by a trained Speech Language Pathologist or Occupational Therapist to the other group. The investigators want to find out whether the individual therapy is better than providing the usual educational material. The therapy sessions are audio-recorded. At McMaster, the investigators job is to listen to the recordings and making sure the therapists are following the study manual. That includes making notes of what the therapists say or do. What the investigators learn in this study may help veterans with mTBI and cognitive issues affect their abilities to do everyday activities.
Maintaining upright posture in quiet standing is an important skill that is often disrupted by stroke. Despite extensive study of human standing, current understanding is incomplete regarding the muscle coordination strategies that produce the ground-on-foot force (F) that regulates translational and rotational accelerations of the body. Even less is understood about how stroke disrupts that coordination. Humans produce sagittal plane variations in the location (center of pressure, xCP) and orientation (Fx/Fz) of F that, along with the force of gravity, produce sagittal plane body motions. As F changes during quiet standing there is a strong correlation between the xCP and Fx/Fz time-varying signals within narrow frequency bands. The slope of the correlation varies systematically with frequency in non-disabled populations, is sensitive to changes in both environmental and neuromuscular control factors, and emerges from the interaction of body mechanics and neural control. This study characterized the xCP versus Fx/Fz relationship as frequency-dependent Intersection Point (IP) heights for the paretic and non-paretic legs of individuals with history of a stroke (n = 12) as well as in both legs of non-disabled controls (n = 22) to reveal distinguishing motor coordination patterns. No inter-leg difference of IP height was present in the control group. The paretic leg IP height was lower than the non-paretic, and differences from control legs were in opposite directions. These results quantify disrupted coordination that may characterize the paretic leg balance deficit and non-paretic leg compensatory behavior, providing a means of monitoring balance impairment and a target for therapeutic interventions.
BACKGROUND: Although studies have suggested that Holocaust survivors are more likely than their non-Holocaust-exposed counterparts to suffer from mental and chronic morbidity, methodology differences and potential confounders often compromise result replicability and external validity. We examined associations between Holocaust exposure and chronic morbidity, as well as overall risk of mortality.
METHODS: Sociodemographic, health-related behavior and nutritional-intake data from two representative National Health and Nutrition Survey Ages 65 and Over-the 2005-2006 MABAT ZAHAV 1 (MZ1) and the 2014-2015 MZ2, including face-to-face interviews and anthropometric measurements-were analyzed. Demographic, health, nutritional and lifestyle characteristics, and exposure to the Holocaust were self-reported. Longitudinal data on overall mortality were obtained by linking the MZ1 population to the population registry dataset. Associations between Holocaust exposure and prevalence of chronic morbidity and risk factors were estimated by multivariable logistic regression analyses, and to risk of overall mortality by Cox regression analysis, both adjusted to significant covariates.
RESULTS: Among 2096 study participants aged 75.7 ± 6.1 years, 47.0% male, 518 were Holocaust survivors. In the fully adjusted model, Holocaust exposure was associated with increased prevalence of heart disease (odds ratio [OR] 1.40, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.07-1.83), metabolic syndrome (OR 2.28, CI 1.23-4.21), and stroke (OR 1.77, CI 1.17-2.69), but not cancer or osteoporosis. Holocaust exposure did not substantially affect the overall risk of mortality (hazard ratio 1.10, CI 0.92-1.32).
CONCLUSIONS: Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms governing long-term outcomes of exposure to acute physical or mental trauma.
Because the majority of Caesarean deliveries are performed under neuraxial anaesthesia, Intrathecal morphine has become the gold standard for post-Caesarean delivery analgesia. However, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is the common side-effect of intrathecal morphine, affecting up to 60-80% of women without prophylaxis. PONV reduces maternal satisfaction and delays discharge from hospital, so it is important to prevent PONV in contemporary obstetric anaesthesia, particularly in the context of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) after Caesarean delivery.

According to the meta-analysis by Lizhong Wang et al., combined 5-HT3 antagonists plus dexamethasone are more effective than mono-therapy in preventing PONV associated with intrathecal morphine after Caesarean delivery. But, the role of prophylactic antiemetics in women receiving intrathecal morphine and lipophilic opioids is still unclear. As antiemetics were shown to be less effective in women receiving intrathecal morphine than in those receiving epidural morphine, Lizhong Wang et al., performed a further subgroup analysis based on whether intrathecal morphine was combined with lipophilic opioids or not. Surprisingly, the results in women who received intrathecal morphine alone were similar to those in the primary analyses; however, in those who received intrathecal morphine and lipophilic opioids, there were no statistical differences in almost all comparisons. This raises the question of whether the combination of intrathecal lipophilic opioids contributed to the reduced efficacy of antiemetics in women receiving intrathecal morphine
The present invention relates to pretreating individuals with an effective amount of a flush inhibiting agent for a sufficient period of time prior to the start of single daily dose nicotinic acid therapy to reduce the capacity of nicotinic acid to induce flushing reactions in such individuals during nicotinic acid therapy. In accordance with the present invention, the flush inhibiting agents are administered orally one to four times a day, and preferably one to two times per day, for between about 7 to about 14 days prior to the start of the nicotinic acid therapy. Examples of flush inhibiting agents include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents. Aspirin is a preferred flush inhibiting agent and may be orally administered in daily doses of between about 80 mg to about 1000 mg, and preferably between about 80 mg and about 650 mg, and more preferably between about 80 mg and about 325 mg, during the pretreatment period. Also consistent with the present invention, the pretreatment therapy may be continued during and administered concurrently with the nicotinic acid therapy, in which the nicotinic acid is preferably administered once per day as a single dose during the evening hours or before or at bedtime. The nicotinic acid may be administered alone or in combination with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors as well as other lipid-altering agents, like cholestyramine and colestipol.
Current treatments for pathological anger and aggression in youth are lacking in their effectiveness to motivate and engage patients in treatment. As a result, mental health providers encounter challenges due to the limited generalizability of treatment effects to real-world situations outside of the therapist's office. When behavioral treatments fail to show lasting results, children and adolescents are often placed on antipsychotic medication to control their behaviors, which may result in significant toxicity levels and for which there is limited knowledge of the long-term effects on pediatric growth and development. This study tests an interactive biofeedback video game called RAGE-Control (for Regulate and Gain Emotional-Control) as a treatment for youth exhibiting anger and aggression. Treatment with RAGE-Control seeks to motivate children and adolescents to learn and practice coping skills taught in therapy within the environment of a fun and enjoyable video game. The game provides patients a venue to practice self-regulation techniques in response to the increasing stress of the game. Providing patients with the opportunity to refine their self-regulation skills in a fast-paced challenging game is hypothesized to result in greater generalization of therapeutic skills to situations outside of the therapist's office. The goal of the treatment is to decrease patients' feelings of anger, and to increase the patients' levels of control in their emotional and behavioral responses.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States (US). Regular physical activity has been demonstrated to reduce the risk of ASCVD and is associated with a number of other health benefits. Yet, less than 50% of adults in the US achieve enough physical activity to actually obtain these benefits. Insights from behavioral economics have been shown to both better reflect the 'predictable irrationality' of humans and to be effective in designing interventions that achieve sustained improvements in health behavior. Our prior work has demonstrated that interventions using financial incentives and gamification can leverage principles from behavioral economics to increase physical activity during 3-month interventions and sustain effects in 3-month follow-up periods. These findings warrant further investigation of longer-term effects. In this study, we conduct a four-arm randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of using behavioral economic approaches including gamification, financial incentives, or both to increase physical activity among patients with elevated risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease during a 12-month intervention with a 6-month follow-up.
Previous research has established that the formation of Gardnerella vaginalis (GV) biofilm is one of the primary reasons for bacterial vaginosis (BV) recurrence. This study was the first to explore the impact of Streptococcus agalactiae (group B Streptococcus, GBS) on GV biofilm in a co-culture scenario. The results revealed that GBS could significantly increased the GV biomass in 48-hours dual-species biofilms. The luxS gene of GBS was significantly higher in dual-species biofilm, while knockdown of the luxS gene resulted in a significant decrease in mono- and dual-species biofilms. Meanwhile, in vitro addition of AI-2 (product of luxS gene) substantially increased biofilm biomass. Furthermore, we found that the expression of two genes related to biofilm formation was notably elevated in GV after receiving AI-2 signals. Collectively, these findings suggest that GBS enhances GV biofilm formation via luxS/AI-2 in an in vitro co-culture model, which in turn may promotes recurrence of BV.
