BACKGROUND: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most frequent malignant tumor in thyroid carcinoma. The aim of this study was to explore the risk factors associated with central lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) and establish a nomogram model that can assess the probability of central lymph node metastasis (CLNM).
METHODS: The clinicopathological data of 377 patients with cN0 PTMC were collected and analyzed from The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from July 1st, 2019 to December 30th, 2021. All patients were examined by underwent ultrasound (US), found without metastasis to central lymph nodes, and diagnosed with PTMC through pathologic examination. All patients received thyroid lobectomy or total thyroidectomy with therapeutic or prophylactic central lymph node dissection (CLND). R software (Version 4.1.0) was employed to conduct a series of statistical analyses and establish the nomogram.
RESULTS: A total of 119 patients with PTMC had central lymph node metastases (31.56%). After that, age (P < 0.05), gender (P < 0.05), tumor size (P < 0.05), tumor multifocality (P < 0.05), and ultrasound imaging-suggested tumor boundaries (P < 0.05) were identified as the risk factors associated with CLNM. Subsequently, multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) of the training cohort was 0.703 and that of the validation cohort was 0.656, demonstrating that the prediction ability of this model is relatively good compared to existing models. The calibration curves indicated a good fit for the nomogram model. Finally, the decision curve analysis (DCA) showed that a probability threshold of 0.15-0.50 could benefit patients clinically. The probability threshold used in DCA captures the relative value the patient places on receiving treatment for the disease, if present, compared to the value of avoiding treatment if the disease is not present.
CONCLUSION: CLNM is associated with many risk factors, including age, gender, tumor size, tumor multifocality, and ultrasound imaging-suggested tumor boundaries. The nomogram established in our study has moderate predictive ability for CLNM and can be applied to the clinical management of patients with PTMC. Our findings will provide a better preoperative assessment and treatment strategies for patients with PTMC whether to undergo central lymph node dissection.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the aggregation of α-Synuclein (αSYN) building up intraneuronal inclusions termed Lewy pathology. Mounting evidence suggests that neuron-released αSYN aggregates could be central to microglial activation, which in turn mounts and orchestrates neuroinflammatory processes potentially harmful to neurons. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms that drive microglial cell activation, polarization and function in PD might have important therapeutic implications. Here, using primary microglia, we investigated the inflammatory potential of pure αSYN fibrils derived from PD patients. We further explored and characterized microglial cell responses to a chronic-type inflammatory stimulation combining PD patient-derived αSYN fibrils (FPD), Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (TPFPD). We showed that FPD hold stronger inflammatory potency than pure αSYN fibrils generated de novo. When combined with TNFα and PGE2, FPD polarizes microglia toward a particular functional phenotype departing from FPD-treated cells and featuring lower inflammatory cytokine and higher glutamate release. Whereas metabolomic studies showed that TPFPD-exposed microglia were closely related to classically activated M1 proinflammatory cells, notably with similar tricarboxylic acid cycle disruption, transcriptomic analysis revealed that TPFPD-activated microglia assume a unique molecular signature highlighting upregulation of genes involved in glutathione and iron metabolisms. In particular, TPFPD-specific upregulation of Slc7a11 (which encodes the cystine-glutamate antiporter xCT) was consistent with the increased glutamate response and cytotoxic activity of these cells toward midbrain dopaminergic neurons in vitro. Together, these data further extend the structure-pathological relationship of αSYN fibrillar polymorphs to their innate immune properties and demonstrate that PD-derived αSYN fibrils, TNFα and PGE2 act in concert to drive microglial cell activation toward a specific and highly neurotoxic chronic-type inflammatory phenotype characterized by robust glutamate release and iron retention.
Objective: To explore the effect of intraoperative sodium creatine phosphate on myocardial protection in patients undergoing valve surgery Methods: 250 patients undergoing valve surgery were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. 5g creatine phosphate was dissolved in 50ml saline solution. After induction of anesthesia, the patients were first given a load dose of 1g, 20min (30ml / h) , And then pumped at a rate of 1 g / h (10 ml / h). The control group was treated with saline in the same manner. The cTnI level was measured at the corresponding time points. Hemodynamic indexes and postoperative complications were recorded.

The placebo was supplied as a 100 mg tablet, and dosage was based on 20 mg/kg/d, rounding to the nearest 100 mg. Most subjects crushed the tablets and administered it in liquid or a food to mask the taste. Subjects took the same dose daily for 16 weeks.
A prospective, uncontrolled, open-label study was carried out in 69 subjects who had been exposed to smoke inhalation from fires. Subjects had to be over 15 years of age, present with soot in the mouth and expectoration (to indicate significant smoke exposure), and have altered neurological status. The median hydroxocobalamin dose was 5 g with a range from 4 to 15 g. 

Fifty of 69 subjects (73%) survived following treatment with hydroxocobalamin. Nineteen subjects treated with hydroxocobalamin did not survive. Fifteen patients treated with hydroxocobalamin were in cardiac arrest initially at the scene; 13 of these subjects died and 2 survived. 

Of the 42 subjects with pretreatment cyanide levels considered to be potentially toxic, 28 (67%) survived. Of the 19 subjects whose pretreatment cyanide levels were considered potentially lethal, 11 (58%) survived. Of the 50 subjects who survived, 9 subjects (18%) had neurological sequelae at hospital discharge. These included dementia, confusion, psychomotor retardation, anterograde amnesia, intellectual deterioration moderate cerebellar syndrome, aphasia, and memory impairment. 

Two additional retrospective, uncontrolled studies were carried out in subjects who had been exposed to cyanide from fire or smoke inhalation. Subjects were treated with up to 15 g of hydroxocobalamin. Survival in these two studies was 34 of 61 (56%) for one study, and 30 of 72 (42%) for the second.
Participants will be included in all pre-intervention and post-assessment measures. Participants will receive the Listening Project Protocol intervention (nonfiltered music). The duration of the intervention is approximately 45 minutes per day, for 5 consecutive days.
Teen/family will receive routine clinical care for the first year of the study (the time period for assessment of primary outcomes). After year 1, teen/family will receive the Teenwork intervention at each remaining study visit and teen will receive text message reminders to check blood glucose levels at self-selected times.
JORNAY PM has a high potential for abuse and misuse which can lead to the development of a substance use disorder, including addiction [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. JORNAY PM can be diverted for non-medical use into illicit channels or distribution. 

Abuse is the intentional non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, to achieve a desired psychological or physiological effect. Misuse is the intentional use, for therapeutic purposes, of a drug by an individual in a way other than prescribed by a health care provider or for whom it was not prescribed. Drug addiction is a cluster of behavioral, cognitive, and physiological phenomena that may include a strong desire to take the drug, difficulties in controlling drug use (e.g., continuing drug use despite harmful consequences, giving a higher priority to drug use than other activities and obligations), and possible tolerance or physical dependence. 

Misuse and abuse of methylphenidate may cause increased heart rate, respiratory rate, or blood pressure; sweating; dilated pupils; hyperactivity; restlessness; insomnia; decreased appetite; loss of coordination; tremors; flushed skin; vomiting; and/or abdominal pain. Anxiety, psychosis, hostility, aggression, and suicidal or homicidal ideation have also been observed with CNS stimulants abuse and/or misuse. Misuse and abuse of CNS stimulants, including JORNAY PM, can result in overdose and death [see Overdosage (10)], and this risk is increased with higher doses or unapproved methods of administration, such as snorting or injection.
PURPOSE:To obtain a make-up cosmetic excellent in color in a coated state and covering power by blending a specified amount of a bar-shaped powder and a specified amount of yellow titanium oxide. CONSTITUTION:This make-up cosmetic is obtained by mixing 0.5 to 20 pts.wt. rod-shaped powder and 0.1 to 20 pts.wt. yellow titanium oxide in 100 pts. wt. cosmetic and excellent in color in a coated state and covering power. The rod-shaped powder is preferably selected from titanium oxide, a titanic acid salt, calcium carbonate, silica, alumina, zirconia, halloysite, their composite materials and their surface-treated materials. As the size of the rod-shaped powder, the short diameter, the long diameter and the ratio of the short diameter to the long diameter are preferably 0.005 to 0.2mum, >=0.5mum and 1:10 to 1:1000 respectively. The yellow titanium oxide is preferably selected from an iron oxide-titanium oxide sintered material, titanium oxide coated with iron oxide and titanium oxide doped with iron. Since colored titanium oxide having a relatively low coloring power is used in this method, there is much degree of freedom for blending. In addition, titanium oxide is used as the main component and a high covering power is exhibited.

ED are highly prevalent mental disorders and one of the main causes of disability worldwide. Currently, there is evidence showing the efficacy of transdiagnostic treatments for anxiety disorders, and for comorbid depression and anxiety disorders. An important line of research within the transdiagnostic treatment of ED was initiated by D. H. Barlow. Barlow's theory of triple vulnerability emphasizes the underlying vulnerabilities that are common to ED and help to explain the comorbidity among these diverse conditions. A central aspect within this theoretical perspective is the role of emotion regulation in ED. The regulation of negative emotions in ED has received a great deal of attention in cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) research, and more recently in transdiagnostic ED models like the UP developed by Barlow's team. However, although Barlow underscored the role of low PA in the onset and maintenance of ED, the main objective of the treatment components in the UP is to train patients in negative affect (NA) regulation, but less attention has been paid to the inclusion of treatment components to directly target PA regulation. Moreover, literature has shown that higher levels of PA are associated with better physical and psychological health, healthier lifestyles, and better general functioning. Consequently, an important treatment goal from a transdiagnostic treatment approach would be to increase PA while decreasing NA.

The aim of this study is to compare the differential effect of two transdiagnostic treatment protocols for ED using a randomized pilot study design: a) a transdiagnostic treatment protocol (TTP) based on the Unified Protocol; and b) a version of this protocol that also includes a specific component to address the regulation of positive affect (TTP+PA). Another aim is to assess the acceptability of both treatments by patients. It was hypothesized that the intervention would result in significant differences in favor of the TTP+PA protocol in all measures. Regarding acceptability, it was hypothesized that both treatments (TP and TP+PA) would be well-accepted by the two groups of participants.
This study is designed to compare the efficacy of palonosetron monotherapy versus combination of acupressure P6 point with dexamethasone and ondansetron in preventing PONV. It has been proven that palonosetron is more superior as single agent when compared with acupressure, dexamethasone and ondansetron separately. However, this might not be cost effective as palonosetron is more expensive than the other agents. In addition, the combination therapy has been reported better in preventing PONV when compared with monotherapy. The investigators need to investigate whether the combination of acupressure with dexamethasone and ondansetron exert an effect equal or even better than palonosetron monotherapy. The investigators hypothesis is the combination of acupressure P6 point with dexamethasone and ondansetron provide better prophylaxis againts PONV when compared with palonosetron. The requirement for rescue anti-emetics for combination of acupressure P6 point with dexamethasone and ondansetron group is lesser than palonosetron.
BACKGROUND: The Racing and Crowded Thoughts Questionnaire (RCTQ-13) is the most widely used specific scale for the measurement of racing thoughts, but there is currently no Spanish version that allow the evaluation in Spanish-speaking patients. The objective of this study is to translate, adapt, and validate the RCTQ-13 in a Colombian population with affective disorders.
METHODS: The questionnaire was translated and back-translated, and corrections were implemented following a pilot test to improve comprehensibility. We included patients with Bipolar I Disorder and with Major depressive disorder seen in three centers in the city of Medellín, Colombia. We evaluate structural validity with confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability. Construct validity was also assessed with the comparison between euthymic, maniac, and depressive episodes and the correlation with worry, rumination, and mania scales. Responsiveness was measured 1 month after the first evaluation. Based on item response theory (IRT), we also estimated item difficulty, discrimination, and fit using a generalized partial credit model.
RESULTS: Two hundred fifty subjects were included. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the three-factor structure of the scale was appropriate. Internal consistency was adequate for the entire scale (Cronbach's alpha = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.94-0.96) and for each factor. Test-retest reliability was good (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.82, 95%IC: 0.70-0.88). For construct validity, we observed differences between patients with different types of affective episodes, a moderate positive correlation with the Penn State Worry Scale (r = 0.55) and the Ruminative Response Scale (r = 0.42), and a low negative correlation with the Young Mania Rating Scale (r = - 0.10). Responsiveness was proved to be adequate. Under IRT, the response thresholds for the response options are organized for all items. The infit was adequate for all items and the outfit was acceptable.
CONCLUSIONS: The Spanish version of the RCTQ-13 is a reliable, valid, and responsive scale and can be used for the clinical assessment of the construct of racing and crowded thoughts in patients with the spectrum of affective disorders in whom this experience can be expressed with different nuances. Further research is needed to expand the relationship with rumination and worry.
Sleep is a basic human function that occupies approximately one-third of our lives. Much of what is known about the benefits of sleep in humans has been obtained from studies of patients with insomnia, the most common sleep disorder with a reported prevalence of 10 to 15%. Unfortunately, insomnia is an independent risk factor for acute myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease, heart failure, hypertension, diabetes, and death. More so, sleep disturbances lead to neurocognitive deficits such as delirium and psychosis. However, the principal medications (i.e. benzodiazepines, zolpidem) currently used to treat insomnia are associated with side effects such as daytime sedation, delirium, anterograde memory disturbance, and complex sleep-related behaviors. We recently found that a nighttime intravenous bolus administration of dexmedetomidine was associated with normal sleep architecture comprising of rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM (N1, N2, N3) sleep, with improved next-day psychomotor vigilance performance compared to zolpidem. Presently, dexmedetomidine is only available in an intravenous formulation. The goal of this project is to develop dexmedetomidine, an alpha-2 receptor agonist, into an oral sleep therapeutic with a neurocognitive sparing profile.
The invention provides a lipstick prescription with high water content and a preparation method thereof. The lipstick prescription with high water content comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 1-10 weight percent of emulsifying agent, 1-30 weight percent of aqueous phase component and 69-98 weight percent of oil phase component. Pigment, a pearlized component or a water-soluble active component also can be added into the lipstick according to the requirements. The preparation method comprises the following steps: taking two or three mixtures of aliphatic acid polyglycerin ester, aliphatic acid ester and polyorganosiloxane modifier as the emulsifying agent; forming water-in-oil pre-emulsion; and then mixing the pre-emulsion and the oil phase component togther. The method effectively improves the water content in the lipstick. The lipstick with high water content has good shape stability in the processes of storage and use and does not have any phenomenon of rough surfaces or generated air holes. The prescription can reduce the lipstick cost, further add the water-soluble active component in an aqueous phase and bring bran-new experience to a consumer and can be widely used for a lip care product.
INTRODUCTION: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most frequent primary malignant liver tumor and typically develops in the context of chronic liver disease, such as liver cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Ultrasound evaluation, CT scan, and MRI are used to detect HCC. α-fetoprotein (AFP) is a common marker used to detect HCC in the non-pregnant population, which notoriously increases in pregnant women in relation to gestational age. Treatment is driven by the extent of the disease and the severity of underlying liver disease. Pregnancy may represent an obstacle to diagnosis and appropriate treatment of HCC. The aim of this descriptive systematic review was to describe the clinical features and maternal and neonatal outcomes of HCC in pregnancy.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: We performed a systematic review of the literature about HCC diagnosed in pregnancy and the postpartum period, with signs or symptoms arising in pregnancy. We included case reports and case series describing the clinical features of women diagnosed with HCC, fibrolamellar variant of HCC, and mixed HCC and cholangiocarcinoma during pregnancy or the postpartum period (with onset of symptoms during pregnancy), from inception to March 2023. The study protocol was registered with the PROSPERO database (Registration number: ID CRD42021275584).
RESULTS: We identified 180 records. The articles included in this systematic review were 47 case reports and 5 case series, for a total of 63 pregnancies. The two most frequent predisposing conditions were hepatitis B virus infection (30/63; 47%) and liver cirrhosis (14/63; 22%). Ultrasound evaluation was the most used technique to detect HCC. AFP was higher than normal in 28/46 patients tested (61%). Surgical treatment was the most used therapy, both during pregnancy and after delivery. Twenty-six patients (26/63; 42%) died within 6 months of diagnosis. Survival >24 months was 9% (4/46) in symptomatic and 29% (5/17) in asymptomatic women. No patient with cirrhotic liver survived more than 12 months. Thirty-eight newborns were alive at 28 days of age (38/63; 61%).
CONCLUSIONS: Hepatocellular carcinoma in pregnancy is associated with a high risk of maternal and neonatal mortality. Diagnosis in asymptomatic high-risk women or following abnormal maternal serum AFP screening is associated with better maternal outcomes.
