Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for 25% of deaths in the United States, and chronic inflammation contributes to risk. A growing body of evidence suggests that gut-derived bacterial components (e.g., lipopolysaccharide or LPS) entering the bloodstream when the gut barrier fails (i.e., intestinal permeability) are a prominent source of inflammation in cardiometabolic conditions such as metabolic syndrome, coronary artery disease, and type 2 diabetes. Two groups that are at \> 2x the risk for CVD, but largely still free of overt disease, are those with metabolically healthy obesity and normal-weight obesity. Those with metabolically healthy obesity - defined as having an obese body mass index (BMI) but other clinical risk factors in the normal range (e.g., blood lipids) - and normal-weight obesity - defined as having a normal BMI yet high percent body fat - generally display little evidence of clinical risk, but present with elevated inflammatory markers including C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a, and interleukin (IL)-6). Therefore, it is likely that chronic inflammation is largely driving CVD risk in metabolically healthy and normal-weight obesity, but the source of this inflammation remains unclear. The primary aim of the proposed project is to determine the extent that markers of intestinal permeability are elevated in metabolically healthy obesity and normal-weight obesity compared to healthy controls and individuals with metabolic syndrome.
When prescribing, do not convert a patient to fentanyl buccal tablet from any other fentanyl product on a mcg per mcg basis as fentanyl buccal tablet and other fentanyl products are not equivalent on a microgram per microgram basis.

Fentanyl buccal tablet is not a generic version of other transmucosal immediate release fentanyl (TIRF) formulations. When dispensing, do not substitute a fentanyl buccal tablet prescription for any other TIRF formulation under any circumstances. Other TIRF formulations and fentanyl buccal tablet are not equivalent. Substantial differences exist in the pharmacokinetic profile of fentanyl buccal tablet compared to other fentanyl products including other TIRF formulations that result in clinically important differences in the rate and extent of absorption of fentanyl. As a result of these differences, the substitution of fentanyl buccal tablet for any other fentanyl product may result in a fatal overdose.

There are no safe conversion directions available for patients on any other fentanyl products except ACTIQ. (Note: This includes oral, transdermal, or parenteral formulations of fentanyl.) [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)]. Therefore, for opioid-tolerant patients, the initial dose of fentanyl buccal tablet should always be 100 mcg. Individually titrate each patient's dose to provide adequate analgesia while minimizing side effects [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)].
MicroRNA expression in breast cancer (BC) is explored both as a potential biomarker and for therapeutic purposes. Recent studies have revealed that miR-203a-3p is involved in BC, and importantly contributes to BC chemotherapy responses; however, the regulatory pathways of miR-203a in BC remain elusive. Hence, we aimed to investigate the miR-203a regulatory mechanisms and their potential functions in the progress of BC. To this end, the miR-203a potential involving pathways was predicted by databases analyzing its target genes. The relations between miR-203a, the phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K)-Akt, and Wnt signaling pathways were mechanistically investigated. Our results revealed that miR-203a inhibited the activation of the PI3K/Akt and Wnt pathways and reduced its downstream cell cycle signals, including Cyclin D1 and c-Myc. Moreover, the overexpression of miR-203a drastically arrested the cell cycle at subG1 and G1 phases, decreased the viability, proliferation, and migration, and increased apoptosis of BC cells. Therefore, miR-203a-3p may be considered a tumor suppressor factor and a potential biomarker or therapeutic target for BC.

BIOEFFECTIVE KRILL OIL COMPOSITIONS Abstract This invention discloses new krill oil compositions characterized by having high amounts of phospholipids, astaxanthin esters and/or omega-3 contents. The krill oils are 5 obtained from krill meal using supercritical fluid extraction in a two stage process. Stage 1 removes the neutral lipid by extracting with neat supercritical CO 2 or CO 2 plus approximately 5% of a co-solvent. Stage 2 extract the actual krill oils by using supercritical CO2 in combination with approximately 20% ethanol. The krill oil materials obtained are compared with commercially available krill oil and found to be more 10 bioeffective in a number of areas such as anti-inflammation, anti-oxidant effects, improving insulin resistances and improving blood lipid profile. This data, for application number 2011213836, is current as of 2013-09-08 22:38 AEST 5530305-1:gc
OBJECTIVE: Obesity represents an exponentially growing preventable disease leading to different health complications, particularly when associated with cancer. In recent years, however, an 'obesity paradox' has been hypothesized where obese individuals affected by cancer counterintuitively show better survival rates. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to assess whether the prognosis in gynecological malignancies is positively influenced by obesity.
METHODS: This study adheres to PRISMA guidelines and is registered with PROSPERO. Studies reporting the impact of a body mass index (BMI) of >30 kg/m2 compared with <30 kg/m2 in patients with gynecological cancers listed in PubMed, Google Scholar and ClinicalTrials.gov were included in the analysis. The Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 tool (QUADAS-2) was used for quality assessment of the selected articles.
RESULTS: Twenty-one studies were identified for the meta-analysis, including 14 108 patients with cervical, ovarian, or endometrial cancer. There was no benefit in 5-year overall survival for obese patients compared with non-obese patients (OR 1.2, 95% CI 1.00 to 1.44, p=0.05; I2=71%). When pooling for cancer sub-groups, there were no statistically significant differences in 5-year overall survival in patients with cervical cancer and 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival in patients with ovarian cancer. For obese women diagnosed with endometrial cancer, a significant decrease of 44% in 5-year overall survival (p=0.01) was found, with no significant difference in 5-year disease-free survival (p=0.78).
CONCLUSION: According to the results of the present meta-analysis, a BMI of ≥30 kg/m2 does not have a positive prognostic effect on survival compared with a BMI of <30 kg/m2 in women diagnosed with gynecological cancers. The existence of the 'obesity paradox' in other fields, however, suggests the importance of further investigations with prospective studies.
Monkeypox (Mpox) is a zoonotic Orthopoxvirus of the Poxviridae family, endemic to Africa. In August 2022, the US government declared it an emergency because of the worldwide spread. Traditionally, Mpox infection spreads through contact with infected animals. However, the 2022 outbreak Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data note that 94% of cases had recent male-to-male sexual or close intimate contact, suggesting a novel sexual transmission. In this article, we report a 39-year-old HIV-positive man presenting with a diffuse cutaneous rash, perianal pain, and bloody stool of 2-week duration. A medical history includes intravenous drug use and multiple sexual partners. Physical examination revealed umbilicated, tan-colored, crusted cutaneous papules scattered across the face, trunk, and genital regions. Perianal lesion biopsy showed an acanthotic epidermis with spongiosis, ballooning degeneration of keratinocytes, and the formation of multinucleated syncytial keratinocytes. A dermal superficial/lichenoid mixed inflammatory cell infiltrate with multinucleated giant cells was noted. Perianal lesion polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was positive for Mpox. Colonoscopy revealed a 3-cm circumferential rectal ulcer with gray exudate and necrosis. A rectal ulcer biopsy showed an ulcerated mucosa with acute proctitis and necrosis. There were scattered macrophages with intranuclear inclusion and glassy vacuolization, and Mpox infection was confirmed by immunostaining with a Mpox-specific anti-Vaccinia virus antibody.

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a prevalent psychiatric disorder affecting up to 1% of college-aged women in the US and an increasing number of women over 30 years of age. Among the many medical co-morbidities associated with AN, the most common is significant bone loss, which can persist despite weight recovery. Nearly 50% of women with AN have osteopenia with an additional 30% meeting WHO criteria for osteoporosis. Importantly, this severe bone loss is associated with an increased fracture risk. Nearly 30% of women with AN report a history of a fracture and a prospective study demonstrated a 7-fold increased risk of fracture in women with AN compared to age-matched controls. Because AN is a chronic disease that can persist despite psychiatric and nutritional counseling, the bone loss and increased fracture risk can persist and lead to lifelong morbidity. Therefore, finding a treatment for bone loss associated with AN is of critical importance.

This 6 month open-label study will investigate in women (ages 25 to 50 years old) with AN whether treatment with transdermal estrogen replacement will increase bone mineral density (BMD), improve parameters of bone microarchitecture as assessed by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), and improve bone strength as estimated by microfinite element analysis.
Long COVID, also defined as post-COVID-19 syndrome, is a common outcome after infection with the SARS-COV-2 virus. The need for treatment and ongoing support for people experiencing Long COVID has been increasingly recognised, including through the establishment of dedicated treatment units within the NHS. While symptoms and their severity may vary greatly between individuals, some of the common symptoms associated with Long COVID include fatigue, breathlessness, pain, sleep disturbances and dysautonomia. In this study, we will test the feasibility of a broad spectrum cannabidiol (CBD) dominant formulation, MediCabilis Cannabis sativa 50, for treating these symptoms in people with a diagnosis of Long COVID. CBD is the primary non-psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, and it is being increasingly used in the treatment of symptoms which are similar to those associated with Long COVID. Additionally, there is some evidence that CBD may be effective in reducing inflammation associated with COVID infection. Together, this evidence suggests that it is possible that CBD may be an effective treatment for people diagnosed with Long COVID. We will therefore conduct a feasibility trial in which 30 people are prescribed CBD dominant medical cannabis. Patients will take this medication daily for a total of 21 weeks (2-week titration period, 18-weeks steady dose, 1-week dose reduction), followed by 3-weeks with no medication. We will collect monthly self-report assessments of common symptoms including breathlessness, fatigue, mood, cognition and pain via a smartphone app, as well as real-time data on heart rate, physical activity and sleep using wearable technology. We will also collect daily self-report assessments of key symptoms (mood, pain, fatigue and breathlessness) via a smartphone app for 7 days per 28 days. Our study will establish whether it is feasible to recruit and retain patients with a diagnosis of Long COVID into a trial of a CBD dominant medical cannabis. We will also monitor whether there are any side effects to assess the safety and tolerability of a CBD dominant medical cannabis. Our results will determine the feasibility of medicinal cannabis in the treatment of Long COVID and whether it is safe to use.
Next line chemotherapy is the current standard treatment for patients with CRLM and progression on chemotherapy. We will include 18 patients in this treatment arm.
PURPOSE:To provide a solid drug preparation having excellent stability by compounding trimebutine maleate as a main drug ingredient and an organic acid as a stabilizer. CONSTITUTION:Trimebutine as a main drug ingredient, citric acid and/or tartaric acid as stabilizers and arbitrarily conventional additives for the preparation are compounded and formed into the objective preparation. The organic acid is compounded in an amount of 0.1-20mg, preferably 0.1-10mg, per 100mg of the trimebutine maleate. A metal stearate salt (e.g. magnesium stearate) is preferably compounded as a lubricant especially for tablets among the solid drug preparation. The trimebutine maleate is useful as an agent for chronic gastritis and irritable enteritis syndrome.
BACKGROUND: In Taiwan, sequence type (ST) 239 and ST59 were two major clones among meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clinical isolates in the past two decades. USA300 (ST8) prevailed in the Americas but not in outside areas. Recently USA300 (ST8) emerged and was increasingly identified in Taiwan; we thus conducted an island-wide study to explore the role of USA300 among MRSA isolates.
METHODS: One hundred MRSA bloodstream isolates identified in 2020 from each of the six participating hospitals in Taiwan were collected and characterized. The first 10 ST8 isolates from each hospital were further analysed by whole-genome sequencing.
RESULTS: Of the 590 confirmed MRSA isolates, a total of 22 pulsotypes and 21 STs were identified. The strain of pulsotype AI/ST8 was the most common lineage identified, accounting for 187 isolates (31.7%) and dominating in five of six hospitals, followed by pulsotype A/ST239 (14.7%), pulsotype C/ST59 (13.9%) and pulsotype D/ST59 (9.2%). Of the 187 pulsotype AI/ST8 isolates, 184 isolates were characterized as USA300 and clustered in three major sub-pulsotypes, accounting for 78%. Ninety per cent of the 60 ST8 isolates for whole-genome sequencing were clustered in three major clades.
CONCLUSIONS: In 2020, USA300 became the most common clone of MRSA in Taiwan, accounting for >30% of MRSA bloodstream isolates island wide. Most of USA300 isolates circulating in Taiwan might have been imported on multiple occasions and evolved into at least three successful local clades. MRSA USA300 has successfully established its role in Taiwan, an area outside of the Americas.
BACKGROUND: Trigeminal ganglion (TG) plays an important role in the process of orthodontic pain. It's necessary to design an accurate, precise and minimally invasive trigeminal ganglion injection guide plate to study TG.
METHODS: Micro-CT was used to obtain the Dicom format data, and three-dimensional (3D) software (mimics and magics23.03) was used to reconstruct 3D head models. Design and modifications of the TG injection guide plate were performed in Magic 23.03 software, and the guide plate was produced by a 3D stereolithography printer. X-ray, micro-CT, Evans blue, and virus transduction were used to demonstrate the accuracy of the guide-assisted injection. Pain levels were evaluated after using the injection guide by a bite force test and Von Frey test.
RESULTS: X-ray and micro-CT tests confirmed that the injection needle reached the bilateral trigeminal ganglia fossa. The Evans blue test and virus transduction proved that the injected drug could be accurately injected into the bilateral trigeminal ganglion and the lentivirus could be successfully transfected. The percentage of accurate injection was 10/10 (bilateral trigeminal ganglia). Orofacial pain induced by the trigeminal ganglion injection was mild and returned to baseline within seven days.
CONCLUSION: The injection guide described in this study is viable and reliable for the delivery of drugs and virus transduction into the trigeminal ganglia.
Nanofat is obtained via lipoaspiration of 10cc of fat from abdomen under moderate local tumescent anesthesia w/ saline. Cannula access point is anesthetized by local lidocaine infiltration. Lipoaspirate is processed into nanofat using the Tonnard method, after 3-minute decantation. Aspiration is performed using a multihole 3mm cannula. Wound margin + bed is treated w/ topical \& local injections of nanofat, then covered w/ a biological scaffold, the inferior surface of which is soaked in nanofat; scaffold is fixed w/ external dressings or resorbable sutures; external covering includes polyurethane film \& 3 layers of dressings. Topical application creates a fine \<1mm nanofat layer. Scaffold (Puracol Plus) is left in place to integrate w/ surrounding skin, while external dressings changed at 7 \& 15 days. Lipoaspirate donor site needs mild to moderate compression for 24 hours \& suture removal (if not absorbed) at 7 days.
This is an open-label study of the bilateral intrahippocampal administration of NRTX-1001 in a single dose cohort of up to 10 subjects. Subjects will be temporarily immunosuppressed after surgery.
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EG) is characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the bowel wall, gastrointestinal symptoms, and in more than 50% of patients, peripheral eosinophilia. Approximately one half of EG patients have multiple food allergies and/or elevated immunoglobulin E (IgE), suggesting an allergic etiology. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of humanized monoclonal anti-IgE antibody, omalizumab (Xolair (Registered Trademark)), in eosinophilic gastroenteritis. Omalizumab is approved for use in asthma and is dosed subcutaneously based on serum total IgE level and body weight, with a maximum dose of 375 mg every 2 weeks. Subjects with EG, and either food hypersensitivity or environmental allergies will be admitted to the Clinical Center. All subjects will undergo a thorough clinical evaluation, including endoscopy. The primary endpoints will be the evaluation of safety of omalizumab and its efficacy in reducing peripheral blood absolute eosinophil count. In addition, the following secondary endpoints will be studied: symptom scores, study drug pharmacodynamics, and tissue eosinophilia. Blood cells and serum will be collected and evaluated in the laboratory to address issues related to the immunopathogenesis and treatment of EG. This study will provide a better understanding of inflammatory and allergy mediators in the pathogenesis of EG and may provide a potential therapy for EG. Following subcutaneous administration of the initial dose of omalizumab (maximum 375 mg), subjects will be followed as inpatients for a minimum of 24 hours to monitor for adverse effects. Subsequent doses will be administered biweekly for a total of 8 doses.
Diabetes is a common disease in the United States, affecting over 10 million Americans. Vascular disease, including heart attack and stroke, affects many diabetic patients and will cause the death of three-fourths of these patients. Because the majority of diabetic patients will suffer complications or death from vascular disease, we will explore treatments that have the potential to reduce or prevent vascular disease in type 2 diabetes patients. Our study will examine the effects of two diabetes medications, rosiglitazone (ROSI) and pioglitazone (PIO), on markers of vascular disease in 20 subjects with type 2 diabetes. It is thought that these two medications will reduce the risk of vascular disease by affecting the platelets and proteins that that regulate the processes involved in clot formation. One-half of the subjects enrolled in our study will take ROSI and the other half will take PIO. We will measure the clumping ability of these subjects' platelets before, during, and after three months of treatment with ROSI or PIO. We will measure the blood concentrations of several proteins (fibrinogen, PAI-1, CRP, adiponectin, and leptin) before and after treatment with the study drugs. These experiments will give us information about any beneficial effects of ROSI and PIO on the clot-forming ability in diabetes patients. We expect that treatment with ROSI and PIO will result in improvement of the disturbed clot-forming processes that predispose diabetic patients to vascular disease.
A phase Ⅲ randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study was conducted to examine the efficacy and safety of ginsenoside-Rd in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Stroke patients were randomized equally to receive a 14-day infusion of placebo or ginsenoside-Rd 20mg. Primary end points were NIHSS scores at 15 days. Secondary end points were NIHSS scores and the Barthel index at 8 days, the Barthel index and the modified Rankin scale at 15 days and 90 days. The safety end points included serious and nonserious adverse events, laboratory values and vital signs. Analysis was by intention to treat.
