The invention discloses an in-situ self-assembled tetravalent platinum drug, and a preparation method and application thereof. Cisplatin is chemically reacted to generate oxidized cisplatin, which is covalently modified on tyrosine phosphorylated self-assembled short peptide through reaction with lysine residue to construct tetravalent platinum drug. The tetravalent platinum drug can be self-assembled in situ under the action of phosphatase with high expression on the surface of tumor cells to form the supermolecule hydrogel with a nanofiber microstructure. The platinum-containing nano-fiber taken up by the cell releases bivalent platinum drugs under the action of glutathione highly expressed in the tumor cell, thereby playing a role in treatment. The formation of the hydrogel promotes the uptake of the platinum-based drug by the tumor cells and increases the residence time of the platinum-based drug in the tumor cells. Compared with the traditional cisplatin, the quadrivalent platinum drug has no influence on the killing effect of tumor cells by drug resistance of the cells and obviously reduces the systemic toxicity.
This group will include 15 non-surgical patients who will be group-matched to Group A on pertinent characteristics. These patients will be non-surgical in that they will have been evaluated for bariatric surgery by the SWLC but deemed ineligible for any of a number of reasons.
Golimumab is a fully human protein (antibody) which binds to tumor necrosis factor (TNFa). TNFa is increased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and plays a major role in causing the joint pain, swelling, and damage from RA. Other marketed drugs that target TNFa (anti-TNFa drugs) have been shown to be effective in reducing the symptoms, signs, and joint damage of RA, but have limitations with respect to safety and ease of use. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of the efficacy and safety of a new anti-TNFa drug, golimumab, at 2 doses, injected under the skin every 4 weeks, alone or in combination with methotrexate, compared with methotrexate alone, in subjects with active RA who have not been previously treated with methotrexate. The study hypothesis is that golimumab, alone or in combination with methotrexate, will be more effective in treatment of RA than methotrexate alone, as measured by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) response criteria and change from baseline in van der Heide Modified Sharp (vdH-S) score, without causing unacceptable significant adverse effects. The ACR response criteria were designed to determine the percentage of subjects who have achieved a certain level of improvement in their signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. The vdH-S score is a measurement of the amount of joint damage in a subject as seen by x-ray. Other secondary measures of effectiveness include the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), which is a series of questions that measure a subject's impairment in physical function caused by RA. Golimumab 50 mg or 100 mg, or placebo injections under the skin every 4 weeks until Week52. Methotrexate (MTX) or placebo capsules will be given in addition. At Week52, subjects on MTX alone with joint pain or swelling get golimumab 50mg, and all subjects receive golimumab for about 4 more years.
Participant will receive a 2-hour interventional session. Its content will consist of two modules: (1) psychoeducation and coping, providing information in content areas such as side effects of cancer treatments, fever protocols, role disruption and (2) stress, triggers, and self care, where caregivers will be briefed on symptoms of and reactions to traumatic stress in order to help parents accurately label thoughts and emotions related to their child's cancer diagnosis.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Accurate diagnosis of secondary progression in multiple sclerosis (MS) remains a challenge since standardized criteria are missing. In 2016, the MSBase registry presented an algorithm that enabled the diagnosis of secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) more than three years earlier compared to diagnosis by neurologists. This work aimed to test whether this approach is equally effective in a real-world cohort of MS patients.
METHODS: This longitudinal retrospective study analyzed clinical data of outpatients with MS recorded until October 2020 in the NeuroTransData registry, a Germany-wide network of 153 certified neurologists. Patient data had been captured in time during clinical visits employing a defined standardized clinical data set in the webbased NeuroTransData patient management platform DESTINY®. The time between the diagnosis of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) to SPMS onset was compared with one determined using MSBase criteria (MSBC). Group 1 consisted of patients diagnosed with SPMS during the observation period, whereas group 2 included RRMS patients who did not convert to SPMS during the observation period.
RESULTS: Of 21,281 patients with MS included in our registry, 194 and 9506 patients were allocated to groups 1 and 2, respectively. 10.3% of patients with RRMS were diagnosed with SPMS simultaneously, whereas 60.8% were diagnosed with SPMS at least 3 months earlier by treating neurologists compared to the MSBC. In group 1, the MSBC showed a low sensitivity of 32.0% and an accuracy of 61.4% but a high specificity of 89.6%. In group 2, the MSBC identified 7.8% of patients with SPMS at some point during the observation time. Moreover, test-retest variability remains a challenge since 29.4% of patients diagnosed with SPMS by treating physicians did not fulfil the MSBC at a later point in time.
DISCUSSION: These results are inconsistent with earlier SPMS diagnosis using the MSBC compared to clinical diagnosis by treating physicians. Therefore, there remains a need for an operational, structured, and validated approach to SPMS diagnosis.
Methylene blue solution (50 mg in 30 ml of saline solution) was injected in the cannulated main supplying artery of the freshly removed specimen, ex vivo. Colorectal specimen was then processed in the routine pathological work-up way.
BACKGROUND: The Hypotension Prediction Index is designed to predict intraoperative hypotension in a timely manner and is based on arterial waveform analysis using machine learning. It has recently been suggested that this algorithm is highly correlated with the mean arterial pressure itself. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the index with mean arterial pressure-based prediction methods, and it is hypothesized that their ability to predict hypotension is comparable.
METHODS: In this observational study, the Hypotension Prediction Index was used in addition to routine intraoperative monitoring during moderate- to high-risk elective noncardiac surgery. The agreement in time between the default Hypotension Prediction Index alarm (greater than 85) and different concurrent mean arterial pressure thresholds was evaluated. Additionally, the predictive performance of the index and different mean arterial pressure-based methods were assessed within 5, 10, and 15 min before hypotension occurred.
RESULTS: A total of 100 patients were included. A mean arterial pressure threshold of 73 mmHg agreed 97% of the time with the default index alarm, whereas a mean arterial pressure threshold of 72 mmHg had the most comparable predictive performance. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the Hypotension Prediction Index (0.89 [0.88 to 0.89]) and concurrent mean arterial pressure (0.88 [0.88 to 0.89]) were almost identical for predicting hypotension within 5 min, outperforming both linearly extrapolated mean arterial pressure (0.85 [0.84 to 0.85]) and delta mean arterial pressure (0.66 [0.65 to 0.67]). The positive predictive value was 31.9 (31.3 to 32.6)% for the default index alarm and 32.9 (32.2 to 33.6)% for a mean arterial pressure threshold of 72 mmHg.
CONCLUSIONS: In clinical practice, the Hypotension Prediction Index alarms are highly similar to those derived from mean arterial pressure, which implies that the machine learning algorithm could be substituted by an alarm based on a mean arterial pressure threshold set at 72 or 73 mmHg. Further research on intraoperative hypotension prediction should therefore include comparison with mean arterial pressure-based alarms and related effects on patient outcome.

### Carcinogenesis

Midazolam maleate was administered with diet in mice and rats for 2 years at dosages of 1, 9 and 80 mg/kg/day. In female mice in the highest dose group there was a marked increase in the incidence of hepatic tumors. In high-dose male rats there was a small but statistically significant increase in benign thyroid follicular cell tumors. Dosages of 9 mg/kg/day of midazolam maleate (4 times a human induction dose of 0.35 mg/kg based on body surface area comparison) do not increase the incidence of tumors. The pathogenesis of induction of these tumors is not known. These tumors were found after chronic administration, whereas human use will ordinarily be of single or several doses.

### Mutagenesis

Midazolam did not have mutagenic activity in Salmonella typhimurium(5 bacterial strains), Chinese hamster lung cells (V79), human lymphocytes or in the micronucleus test in mice. 

### Impairment of Fertility

Male rats were treated orally with 1, 4, or 16 mg/kg midazolam beginning 62 days prior to mating with female rats treated with the same doses for 14 days prior to mating to Gestation Day 13 or Lactation Day 21. The high dose produced an equivalent exposure (AUC) as 4 mg/kg intravenous midazolam (1.85 times the human induction dose of 0.35 mg/kg based on body surface area comparison). There were no adverse effects on either male or female fertility noted.
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an antiaging agent containing a solvent extract of seeds of peach as an active ingredient, having collagen production promoting action and elastase activity inhibiting action and useful for basic cosmetics, makeup cosmetics, hair cosmetics and bathing agents, etc. SOLUTION: This antiaging agent is obtained by formulating a solvent extract of seed (persicae semen) of peach, preferably in an amount of 0.001-10.0 wt.% as a dried material based on total amount of external preparation. The extract is obtained by immersing peach seed into an extracting solvent (e.g. methanol or acetone) or heating the peach seed in the extracting solvent under reflux and filtering the seed and concentrating the extract solution. A skin lotion such as lotion preparation, milk lotion, cream, ointment, plaster, cataplasm or aerosol is preferable as a formulation of the antiaging agent. The antiaging agent can be formulated with oils and fats (e.g. avocado oil), a surfactant (e.g. base for soap), an antiseptic agent (e.g. methylparaben), a metal ion sealing agent (e.g. edetic acid), a water-soluble polymer (e.g. gum arabic), etc.
The potential for acute toxic effects following overdose of PULMICORT FLEXHALER is low. If used at excessive doses for prolonged periods, systemic corticosteroid effects such as hypercorticism may occur [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)]. Another budesonide-containing dry powder inhaler at 3200 mcg daily administered for 6 weeks caused a significant reduction (27%) in the plasma cortisol response to a 6-hour infusion of ACTH compared with placebo (+1%). The corresponding effect of 10 mg prednisone daily was a 35% reduction in the plasma cortisol response to ACTH. 

Postmarketing experience showed that acute overdose of inhaled budesonide commonly remained asymptomatic. The use of excessive doses (up to 6400 mcg daily) for prolonged periods showed systemic corticosteroid effects such as hypercorticism.
PURPOSE: To evaluate the necessity and effectiveness of actively extracting kidney stones with different complexity that have been visually dusted in flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy (fURL).
METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent fURL with dusting technique in established hospitals. A total of 535 cases were divided into the dusting group or the dusting plus basketing group according to the use of stone basket. Their characteristics and operative parameters were collected and analyzed. We used the R.I.R.S. scoring system to classify the complexity of kidney stones and divided these kidney stones into three subgroups, namely, mild-, moderate-, and severe-complexity group. And then, the effectiveness of stone basket in these subgroups was analyzed.
RESULTS: Although using a stone basket significantly reduced re-operation rate (17.8% in dusting group versus 10.2% in dusting plus basketing group, p = 0.013), no significant difference on stone-free rate (SFR) and overall incidence of complications were noticed between groups. After we classified the complexity of kidney stones using the R.I.R.S. scoring system, we found a stone basket was helpful to improve SFR in kidney stones with moderate-complexity that had been visually dusted in fURL (73.5% in dusting group versus 87.3% in dusting plus basketing group, p = 0.002) but had limited influence on SFR in mild (93.8% in dusting group versus 92.6% in dusting plus basketing group, p = 0.783) or severe (28.5% in dusting group versus 34.0% in dusting plus basketing group, p = 0.598)-complexity kidney stones.
CONCLUSION: The use of stone basket should be encouraged in moderate-complexity kidney stones which can be visually dusted in fURL.
Surgical site infection (SSI) significantly affects patient recovery time, health outcomes and quality of life which is closely associated with the use of implants or mesh. Sutures are the most frequently used implants that play a significant role in the development of SSI. Studies have demonstrated that the administration of effective bactericidal and anti-inflammatory treatments can significantly decrease the incidence of SSI. To address this concern, a versatile suture was engineered by coating MoO3-X nanodots in this study. The incorporation of MoO3-X nanodots endowed the suture with desirable antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that were evaluated in in vitro and in vivo experiments. The results showed its remarkable ability to facilitate wound healing and prevent SSI through its dual action of combating bacterial infection and reducing inflammation. These findings highlight the promising potential of this multifunctional surgical suture as a versatile tool to promote better outcomes in surgical procedures.
BACKGROUND: We report the first case series of spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) patients who underwent CT-guided percutaneous cyanoacrylate injection targeting the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed for all consecutive cases of SIH patients with CSF leak confirmed on CT myelography, treated by CT-guided percutaneous cyanoacrylate injection at our institution from 2016 to 2022. On pretreatment brain and spine MRIs, we analyzed signs of SIH according to the Bern score, and dichotomized cases into positive/negative for spinal longitudinal extradural CSF collection (SLEC-P or SLEC-N). The leaks detected on CT myelography were classified into three types according to Schievink et al. We collected the Headache Impact Test 6 (HIT-6) scores throughout a 6-month follow-up, with a brain CT scan at each visit.
RESULTS: 11 patients were included (mean age 48.4 years, six men). Five SLEC-P type 1, three SLEC-P type 2, and three SLEC-N type 3 leaks were identified. All patients had significant signs of SIH on pretreatment brain MRI (mean Bern score 7.8±1.1). Six patients underwent a foraminal puncture, and five patients had a cervical epidural approach. Two patients experienced mild and transient locoregional pain after cervical epidural injection. Mean HIT-6 score at baseline was 66.8±3.2 and at the 6-month follow-up was 38±3.6 (P<0.001). All patients achieved improvement in their symptoms, with 82% of them (9/11) having complete resolution of headaches and SIH findings on CT scans at 6 months. No clinical worsening or recurrence was observed.
CONCLUSIONS: CT-guided percutaneous cyanoacrylate injection may be a potential therapeutic option for the different types of CSF leak causing SIH.
Prediabetes is a crucial stage for prevention and treatment of diabetes, and vitamin D (VD) has been found to be linked to the development of prediabetes and diabetes. Thus, we aimed to identify the effect of VD supplementation on glucose metabolism in prediabetic participants and mice. A 1:1 paired design of randomized, placebo-controlled trial with 1600 IU/day VD3 or placebo was administered to individuals with prediabetes, two-way repeated-measures ANCOVA was used to analyze glycolipid and inflammatory factors. A high-fat diet induced prediabetic KKay mice were utilized to evaluate the effects of VD3 with 16 weeks supplementation. Generalized estimation equation, one way ANOVA were used to analyze continuous monitoring indexes and terminal indexes, respectively. Exercise capacity, skeletal muscle pathological features and relevant proteins were examined. The clinical results showed that VD3 could improve insulin secretion and decrease inflammation. Results of KKay mice exhibited that VD3 not only ameliorate glycolipid metabolism and inflammatory indicators, but also regulated pathological changes of skeletal muscle and exercise capacity. Mechanistically, our results demonstrated that VD3 could inhibit the TLR4/NFκB and activate PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Collectively, the study indicated that VD3 exerts its beneficial effects by inhibiting TLR4/NFκB to decrease inflammatory response, and activating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to regulate glucose homeostasis.

PURPOSE:To provide the filter for capturing white blood cells which stably, efficiently and safely capture white blood cells irrelevant of a preservation temp. and number of days from blood and can be sterilized with high-temp. steam and the process for producing this filter. CONSTITUTION:The raw material compsn. consisting of at least one kind of polymer materials and the good solvent thereof and a pore forming material is formed and fixed on the surface of a porous base material selected from a group consisting of a woven fabric, non-woven fabric and knitted fabric consisting of fibers which have <=10mum average diameter and do not denature the blood. This base material is immersed into a bath contg. the good solvent of the above-mentioned polymer material and a nonsolvent and is solidified; thereafter, the pore forming material is eluted away into this good solvent. The three-dimensional network-like open cellular porous body having 1 to 60mum pore size, 0.5 to 10m<2>/g specific surface area, 30 to 95% porosity, 0.08 to 0.30kg/cm<2> bubble point, 0.1 to 9.0mm thickness, and 6 to 90% surface opening rate is formed in this way.
Cigarette smoking persists as the leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality. Thus, finding ways to maximize quitting behavior is critical. Women have a more difficult time achieving smoking abstinence than men. The risk for smoking relapse appears to vary by menstrual phase such that the follicular phase is associated with greater risk compared to the luteal phase. Women are also more likely to smoke in response to stressful stimuli than men. Allopregnanolone (ALLO) is a stress-reducing neuroactive steroid that is primarily metabolized from the sex hormone progesterone and, therefore, varies by menstrual phase in women. Recent preclinical literature has indicated that ALLO may protect against drug abuse behaviors. Unfortunately, ALLO remains largely unexplored in clinical samples containing women.

In this study we aim to characterize the effect of smoking on stress-induced ALLO response in women by menstrual phase. To achieve this goal, we will recruit a sample of premenopausal women who smoke (n=30) and do not smoke (n=30) to participate in a controlled cross-over study. All participants will complete two four-hour lab sessions timed to occur in the Follicular (F; low ALLO) and Luteal (L; high ALLO) menstrual phases. Each lab session will contain an acute stressor along with a timed series of assessments including blood samples (for ALLO measurement) and self-report of mood and perceived stress.
Healthy ageing is associated with a loss of muscle mass and physical function. This loss of physical function is underpinned by reductions in characteristics such as muscle strength, power, and maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O2max; reflecting exercise capacity). However, the causal contributors to these age-associated impairments, and the role of exercise training status in mitigating them, remain poorly defined. Skeletal muscle mitochondrial function has been proposed to be a key contributor to age-associated effects on physical function, however many conflicting results are present in the extant human literature. Moreover, diffusion of oxygen from capillaries to mitochondria is a key determinant of V̇O2max, however, whether the skeletal muscle diffusive capacity for oxygen (DmO2) declines with age is unknown. A new technique utilizing near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) will enable the non-invasive assessment of skeletal muscle diffusive capacity in young and elderly subjects for the first time to resolve this issue. The primary aims of this study are therefore to 1) compare DmO2 derived via NIRS between young sedentary, young endurance-trained, older sedentary, and older endurance-trained subjects; 2) to compare non-invasive (i.e. with NIRS and 31phosphorous magnetic resonance spectroscopy \[31P-MRS\]) and invasive (i.e. measures of mitochondrial morphology and respiration obtained by skeletal muscle biopsy) markers of mitochondrial function between the same groups, and 3) to assess the relationships between DmO2, mitochondrial measures and assessments of capillarization with functional measurements of muscle strength, power, and V̇O2max.
