Food security is one's ability to get food. Individuals with a SCI have many risk factors for low rates of food security. Some of these risk factors include lower levels of income and employment. This study consists of a one-time survey using the US Adult Food Security Survey and another previously validated survey about perceptions of barriers to healthy eating.

Our long-term goal is to develop a large SCI food security and perceived barriers to healthy eating multicenter study in order to determine if these factors are significant issues in the SCI population. We also aim to determine the causes of these issues in order to develop interventions to improve the health of all people living with a SCI and potentially reduce their health care costs. The purpose of this study is to determine the rates of food insecurity in a sample of people living with a SCI and to identify some perceptions of barriers to healthy eating in the SCI population. This will also develop preliminary data to support a NIH R level grant application for a large, multicenter study to further explore SCI food security at the national level. Our central hypothesis is that there will be an increased rate of food insecurity in the SCI population compared to other groups in the literature, and that this will be associated with income and environmental barriers.
Females age 9-26 with JIA of all types that have had arthritis and do not have active systemic symptoms. All study subjects are receiving the Gardasil vaccine as part of their clinical care. The study observes outcomes related to this clinical care. Study intervention consists of some Blood Draws for serum titers taken to measure antibody.
Donor (husband or third party) lymphocytes were prepared by Ficoll-Paque centrifugation; the cells were washed with sterile saline and resuspended in 1 ml at a concentration of 20-40 × 106 cells/ml. The cells were given to the female partner by 4-6 intradermal injected. In this study, the lymphocyte immunization therapies were performed every 3 weeks for 3 times. After that we test Th1/Th2/Treg, if they become normal, the patients can prepare for pregnancy.
The first axe of this research focuses on the role of the cerebellum which has a major contribution to sensorimotor adaptation and more precisely in saccadic adaptation but the nature of this contribution is still debated. A classical assumption stipulates cerebellum has an exclusive action on saccadic burst generator in the brainstem whereas recent data increasingly support the view that cerebellum could also modulates cerebral cortex through a cerebello-thalamo-cortical pathway. On the other hand, several studies have shown that modification of saccade amplitude by saccadic adaptation leads to a distortion of the visual localization of briefly flashed spatial probes but no study to date has tested, the contribution of the cerebellum in these adaptation-induced mislocalizations. The main objective of this axe is to define the role of the cerebellum not only in saccadic adaptation, but also in mislocalizations which occur after adaptation. Moreover, in testing this assumption, arguments in favour -or in disfavor- of the action of the cerebellum on cortical stages dedicated to visuo-spatial perceptual processing will be provided. Besides, variability of cerebellar lesion (or cerebellar dysfunction) location in patients can lead to different pattern in saccadic adaptation and localization task performances. Identification of dissociations between these two abilities in some patients will define more precisely the role of the cerebellum in the coupling between saccadic adaptation and visuo spatial perception as an oculomotor plasticity territory and / or as a territory underlying the error signal coding generating this type of plasticity.

This second axe of this research aims to apply basic findings in healthy subject on the coupling between oculomotor plasticity and spatial attention to patients with parietal lesion, in order to evaluate a rehabilitation procedure for neglect patients. Habchi and colleagues showed that the adaptation of reactive saccades in the left hemifield has a boosting effect on attentional performance in the same hemifield. The coupling between these two mechanisms highlighted in healthy subjects can be used as fundamentals in the elaboration of a rehabilitation procedure for attentional disorders in the neglect syndrome. This syndrome is mainly observed after cerebral lesions in the right hemisphere, and is characterized by very disabling cognitive disorders such as an alteration of the spatial representation of left hemi-space and/or left hemi-body. stimulation of sensorimotor plasticity thanks to prismatic adaptation could be used as a rehabilitation procedure for this syndrome. Being another efficient way to stimulate sensorimotor plasticity, the equip believe that saccadic adaptation can also be used as a rehabilitation procedure for neglect patients. Moreover, due to its tight coupling with visual attention, the benefits of saccadic adaptation could be even stronger and longer lasting than the visuo-manual plasticity induced by prismatic adaptation.
Sotalol can cause serious ventricular arrhythmias, primarily Torsade de Pointes (TdP) type ventricular tachycardia, a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia associated with QTc prolongation. QTc prolongation is directly related to the concentration of sotalol. Factors such as reduced creatinine clearance, gender (female) and higher dose, bradycardia, history of sustained VT/VF, atrial fibrillation with sinus node dysfunction, heart failure increase the risk of TdP. The risk of TdP can be reduced by adjustment of the sotalol dose according to creatinine clearance and by monitoring the ECG for excessive increases in QTc.

Correct hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia prior to initiating sotalol hydrochloride, as these conditions can exaggerate the degree of QT prolongation and increase the potential for TdP. Special attention should be given to electrolyte and acid-base balance in patients experiencing severe or prolonged diarrhea or patients receiving concomitant diuretic drugs.

Avoid sotalol with other drugs known to cause QT prolongation [see Drug Interactions ( 7.1)].
Absorption

Norgestimate (NGM) and EE are rapidly absorbed following oral administration. NGM is rapidly and completely metabolized by first pass (intestinal and/or hepatic) mechanisms to norelgestromin (NGMN) and norgestrel (NG), which are the major active metabolites of norgestimate.

Peak serum concentrations of NGMN and EE are generally reached by 2 hours after administration of norgestimate and ethinyl estradiol tablets. Accumulation following multiple dosing of the 250 mcg NGM / 35 mcg EE dose is approximately 2-fold for NGMN and EE compared with single dose administration. The pharmacokinetics of NGMN is dose-proportional following NGM doses of 180 mcg to 250 mcg. Steady-state concentration of EE is achieved by Day 7 of each dosing cycle. Steady-state concentrations of NGMN and NG are achieved by Day 21. Non-linear accumulation (approximately 8 fold) of NG is observed as a result of high-affinity binding to SHBG, which limits its biological activity (Table 3).

Food Effect

The effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of Nymyo has not been studied.

Distribution

NGMN and NG are highly bound (>97%) to serum proteins. NGMN is bound to albumin and not to SHBG, while NG is bound primarily to SHBG. EE is extensively bound (>97%) to serum albumin and induces an increase in the serum concentrations of SHBG.

Metabolism

NGM is extensively metabolized by first-pass mechanisms in the gastrointestinal tract and/or liver. NGM's primary active metabolite is NGMN. Subsequent hepatic metabolism of NGMN occurs and metabolites include NG, which is also active, and various hydroxylated and conjugated metabolites. Although NGMN and its metabolites inhibit a variety of P450 enzymes in human liver microsomes, under the recommended dosing regimen, the in vivo concentrations of NGMN and its metabolites, even at the peak serum levels, are relatively low compared to the inhibitory constant (Ki). EE is also metabolized to various hydroxylated products and their glucuronide and sulfate conjugates.

Excretion

The metabolites of NGMN and EE are eliminated by renal and fecal pathways. Following administration of 14C-norgestimate, 47% (45-49%) and 37% (16-49%) of the administered radioactivity was eliminated in the urine and feces, respectively. Unchanged NGM was not detected in the urine. In addition to 17-deacetyl norgestimate, a number of metabolites of NGM have been identified in human urine following administration of radiolabeled NGM. These include 18, 19-Dinor-17-pregn-4-en-20-yn-3-one,17-hydroxy-13-ethyl,(17α)-(-);18,19-Dinor-5β-17-pregnan-20-yn,3α,17β-dihydroxy-13-ethyl,(17α), various hydroxylated metabolites and conjugates of these metabolites.
The global prevalence of obesity more than doubled between 1990 and 2022. By 2022, 2.5 billion adults aged 18 and older were overweight, with over 890 million of them living with obesity. The urgent need for understanding the impact of high-fat diet, together with the demanding of analytical methods with low energy/chemicals consumption, can be fulfilled by rapid, high-throughput spectroscopic techniques. To understand the impact of high-fat diet on the metabolic signatures of mouse cecal contents, we characterized metabolite variations in two diet-groups (standard vs high-fat diet) using FTIR spectroscopy and multivariate analysis. Their cecal content showed distinct spectral features corresponding to high- and low-molecular-weight metabolites. Further quantification of 13 low-molecular-weight metabolites using liquid chromatography showed significant reduction in the production of short chain fatty acids and amino acids associated with high-fat diet samples. These findings demonstrated the potential of spectroscopy to follow changes in gut metabolites.
Before any of the well-known adverse effects in pregnancy2,3, obesity causes a relatively hypogonadotropic hypogonadal phenotype. Reduced LH, FSH, estradiol (E2) and progesterone secretion are well documented during the menstrual cycles of obese women compared to normal weight women (NWW).4,5. Decreased gonadotropin secretion associated with obesity is related to reduced pituitary sensitivity to GnRH6. This reduction in pituitary sensitivity suggests mediation by circulating factors such as cytokines, insulin, or other pro-inflammatory signals known to be elevated in obesity. We have recently discovered that the combination of hyperinsulinemia and circulating free fatty acids (FFAs), but neither agent alone, can acutely decrease gonadotropin secretion in NWW as well as men, establishing a direct causal linkage for the central hypothesis of this proposal: that chronic pituitary suppression partially mediates obesity related subfertility. Our working model is that the combination of excess, possibly pro-inflammatory (omega-6) circulating FFAs and insulin resistance associated with obesity, cause decreased pituitary sensitivity to GnRH, with a resulting relative sex steroid deficit that further exacerbates the obese phenotype. We have named this phenotype the reprometabolic syndrome. We propose to examine the interrelationships among obesity, reproductive dysfunction and metabolic dysfunction in a mechanistic fashion. We will induce the hypogonadotropic hypogonadal phenotype of obesity in NWW, who will be primed with a high-fat diet (HFD) designed to increase circulating FFAs and produce short-term insulin resistance and higher insulin levels.1,7-11 Before and after priming, we will test the additive effects of lipid excess, insulin, and inflammation on the reproductive and metabolic axes.

Recently, the academic hospital Maastricht invested in an integrated MR-PET system (Biograph mMR, Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany), ready to use for routine clinical application. Applications of this system are numerous and various types of cancer, including ovarian cancer, could benefit from the possibilities. The whole-body MR-PET system integrates the strengths of MRI and PET within a single examination. MRI provides anatomic detail in staging local tumor extent due to its high soft tissue resolution and advanced functional techniques such as DWI further enhance both local and distant lesion detection and characterisation. PET imaging complements this structural and functional information with molecular imaging technology useful in staging of adenopathy and metastatic spread. These characteristics contribute to a wide spectrum of possible clinical oncological applications, from primary tumor detection to local and distant staging, selection of patients for neoadjuvant therapy and assessment of response to chemotherapy and finally evaluation of recurrent disease.

The importance of selecting patients with ovarian cancer who will benefit from either primary debulking surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery has been acknowledged worldwide but the optimal diagnostic modality to serve in this matter remains to be discovered. We believe that combined magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography (MR-PET) can be of great clinical value in preoperative staging of patients with ovarian cancer. Both positron emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have proved to be useful in ovarian cancer staging but understaging due to difficulties in depicting peritoneal dissemination remains a great problem. In conclusion, the best method for staging ovarian cancer and assessing operability remains to be discovered, hence this study.
Bilateral sham ST25, SP14, and ST37 will be used in the SA group. After sterilizing the skin, 0.30×40mm needles will be straightly inserted at the sham points about 2-3mm until they can be fixed on the skin when attached by the alligator clips. No manipulation will be used, and no deqi sensation are elicited for all sham points. The bilateral sham ST25, SP14, and ST37 points will be attached by the same EA apparatus with a continuous wave of 10 Hz and current intensity of 0.1 to 0.2 mA for 30 minutes with only the initial 30 seconds on.

Using cross-sectional data from a representative sample of the French population (the 2008 Disability Health survey), this paper examines whether the SF-6D, a widely used preference-based measure of health-related quality of life in economic evaluations, fully captures the variation in subjective well-being (SWB) due to chronic illnesses. We conduct a mediation analysis to disentangle the direct and indirect, through the SF-6D, effects of various chronic conditions on SWB (happiness). Our results show that the SF-6D reflects changes in happiness due to most illnesses except mental illness. Changes in SWB mediated by the SF-6D account for 74% of the total effect. The variation unexplained by the SF-6D is significant and increases substantially in the presence of multimorbidity when a chronic illness is combined with anxiety or depression. Overall, our results suggest that the SF-6D incompletely captures the subjective experience of chronically ill patients, especially those with comorbid conditions.
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: The Timosaponin BⅡ (TBⅡ) is one of the main active components of the traditional Chinese medicine Anemarrhena asphodeloides, and it is a steroidal saponin with various pharmacological activities such as anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptosis. However, its role in acute ulcerative colitis remains unexplored thus far.
AIM OF THE STUDY: This study aims to investigate the protective effect of TBⅡ against dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis in mice and elucidate its underlying mechanisms.
METHODS: Wild-type (WT) and NLRP3 knockout (NLRP3-/-) mice were applied to evaluate the protective effect of TBⅡ in DSS-induced mice colitis. Pharmacological inhibition of NLRP3 or adenovirus-mediated NLRP3 overexpression in bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) from WT mice and colonic epithelial HCoEpiC cells was used to assess the role of TBⅡ in LPS + ATP-induced cell model. RNA-seq, ELISA, western blots, immunofluorescence staining, and expression analysis by qPCR were performed to examine the alterations of colonic NLRP3 expression in DSS-induced colon tissues and LPS + ATP-induced cells, respectively.
RESULTS: In mice with DSS-induced ulcerative colitis, TBⅡ treatment attenuated clinical symptoms, repaired the intestinal mucosal barrier, reduced inflammatory infiltration, and alleviated colonic inflammation. RNA-seq analysis and protein expression levels demonstrated that TBⅡ could prominently inhibit NLRP3 signaling. TBⅡ-mediated NLRP3 inhibition was associated with alleviating intestinal permeability and inflammatory response via the blockage of communication between epithelial cells and macrophages, probably in an NLRP3 inhibition mechanism. However, pharmacological inhibition of NLRP3 by MCC950 or Ad-NLRP3 mediated NLRP3 overexpression significantly impaired the TBⅡ-mediated anti-inflammatory effect. Mechanistically, TBⅡ-mediated NLRP3 inhibition may be partly associated with the suppression of NF-κB, a master pro-inflammatory factor for transcriptional regulation of NLRP3 expression in the priming step. Moreover, co-treatment TBⅡ with NF-κB inhibitor BAY11-7082 partly impaired TBⅡ-mediated NLRP3 inhibition, and consequently affected the IL-1β mature and secretion. Importantly, TBⅡ-mediated amelioration was not further enhanced in NLPR3-/- mice.
CONCLUSION: TBⅡ exerted a prominent protective effect against DSS-induced colitis via regulation of alleviation of intestinal permeability and inflammatory response via the blockage of crosstalk between epithelial cells and macrophages in an NLRP3-mediated inhibitory mechanism. These beneficial effects could make TBⅡ a promising drug for relieving colitis.

Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapy drug for the treatment of various cancers. However, although cisplatin is effective in targeting cancer cells, it has severe side effects including skeletal muscle atrophy. In this study, we aimed to characterize the role of Dihydromyricetin in cisplatin-induced muscle atrophy in mice. 5-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were treated with Dihydromyricetin for 14 days orally followed by in intraperitoneally cisplatin administration for 6 days. Gastrocnemius muscles were isolated for the following experiments. Antioxidative stress were determined by peroxidative product malondialdehyde (MDA) and antioxidants superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities. Quadriceps muscle mass and grip strength were significantly restored by Dihydromyricetin in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, muscle fibers were improved in Dihydromyricetin treated group. Excessive skeletal muscle E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases in cisplatin group were significantly repressed by Dihydromyricetin treatment. Dihydromyricetin significantly reduced oxidative stress induced by cisplatin by decreasing MDA level and restored SOD and GPx activities. In addition, ferroptosis was significantly reduced by Dihydromyricetin characterized by reduced iron level and ferritin heavy chain 1 and improved Gpx4 level. The present study demonstrated that Dihydromyricetin attenuated cisplatin-induced muscle atrophy by reducing skeletal muscle E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases, oxidative stress, and ferroptosis.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis in the United States, affecting 21 million older people. Symptomatic knee OA in the elderly is one of the most frequent causes of loss of independence and physical disability. There are currently no satisfactory pharmacological or non-pharmacological therapies for knee OA. New strategies to improve functional capacity, quality of life and reduce long-term disability in people with knee OA are urgently needed. Our long-term goal is to demonstrate the physical and psychological benefits of Tai Chi exercise as a complementary treatment for people with knee OA. Tai Chi is a traditional Chinese discipline with both physical and mental components that appear to benefit a variety of conditions. The physical component provides exercise that is consistent with recommendations for OA (range of motion, flexibility, muscle conditioning and aerobic cardiovascular exercise), while the mental component has the potential to increase psychological well-being, life satisfaction, and perceptions of health. These effects are especially pertinent for the treatment of older adults with knee OA.

Over a three-year period, 40 patients with symptomatic knee OA were randomly assigned to receive a 12-week Tai Chi program or stretching and wellness education program. Outcome measurements were obtained at baseline and on completion of the 12-week program, as well as 24 and 48 week follow-up periods. We compared changes in knee pain, stiffness, and physical function using the well-validated Western Ontario and McMaster Index (WOMAC), as well as clinical knee examination, lower extremity function, knee joint proprioception, and health related quality of life.
