High-altitude lakes (HALs) can be used as a supplement or alternative source of water in areas where there is a water shortage. When these lakes are efficiently managed, they can supply more water resources to fulfil the increasing demand. Water quality assessment aids in the identification of adequate and safe drinking water sources. It minimizes threats to the public's health by making sure that lake water extraction fulfills safety and health regulations. Water quality and hydrogeochemical study was conducted on six HALs of the Tawang district of Arunachal Pradesh during the year 2022. The water quality index (WQI) values varied from excellent to poor (33.87 to 101.95). Lake 6 stands out with its exceptional water quality as it had the minimum average WQI value of 52.98. In contrast, Lake 5 had the lowest water quality among the studied lakes with the maximum average WQI value of 95.31. However, the water might not be safe to drink due to the elevated levels of fluoride in these lakes. It is crucial to address and minimize the high fluoride levels to ensure the safety and acceptability of the water for consumption. The Piper diagram showed that Ca2+  > Mg2+  > Na+  > K+ and HCO3-  > Cl-  > SO42-, respectively, were the primary cations and anions present in these lakes. The Gibbs diagram also demonstrated the effect of rock weathering and precipitation dominance on the water chemistry in the research area. These results provide insightful information about the water quality of HALs, which is essential information for concerned government departments and agencies to manage water issues more efficiently. Based on current research, the HALs in this region have a lot of potential to meet the growing demand for drinking water.
AIM: Many rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients prioritize pain improvement in treatment. As pain can result from various causes, including noninflammatory factors such as central sensitivity syndrome (CSS), we hypothesized that CSS might impact treatment satisfaction. In this cross-sectional study, we assessed the CSS effects on clinical disease activity and treatment satisfaction in RA patients.
METHODS: In total, 220 consecutive RA patients receiving long-term follow-up were evaluated for clinical disease activity and treatment satisfaction. CSS was evaluated using the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI). An overall score of ≥40 indicates the presence of CSS. We queried "How satisfied are you with your treatment?"; answers included (a) very satisfied, (b) satisfied, (c) not satisfied, or (d) very dissatisfied. For univariate analysis, we condensed these answers into "dissatisfied" or "satisfied." We also evaluated treatment satisfaction using the visual analog scale (VAS), with scores ranging from 0 mm (very dissatisfied) to 100 mm (very satisfied).
RESULTS: Of the 220 patients, 17 (7.7%) were classified as having CSS. CSI score was significantly correlated with the clinical disease activity index (CDAI; r = .322, p < .01) and treatment satisfaction (r = -.336, p < .01). Regarding treatment satisfaction, univariate analysis revealed that patient global assessment (PtGA), pain VAS, Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI), Disease Activity Score in 28 joints with C-reactive protein, CDAI, and CSI scores of patients who were satisfied with treatment differed significantly from those of dissatisfied patients. Multivariate analysis revealed that CSI, PtGA, and HAQ-DI scores were associated with treatment satisfaction.
CONCLUSION: In RA patients, CSS may affect the disease activity index and reduce treatment satisfaction.
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a term that encompasses psoriatic arthritis with axial disease, ankylosing spondylitis and non-radiological axial spondyloarthritis. The prevalence of SpA in the general population is estimated to be between 0.01%-2.5%. SpA patients have a high burden of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which primarily includes Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative colitis (UC), with an estimated prevalence of 10%-12%. However, few studies have investigated the converse; the presence of IBD cases with undiagnosed SpA. Untreated SpA may lead to a significant impact on general health and quality of life; therefore early diagnosis and treatment is crucial. Most CD patients will have had a MRE assessment for their CD, which also captures the axial skeleton and can therefore be used to screen for evidence of axial SpA (axSpA). In this study, MRE images from consenting CD subjects will be reviewed for evidence of axSpA. CD patients with evidence of axSpA will then be reviewed in a rheumatology clinic to assess more specifically for SpA. This will include completion of patient reported outcome measures, clinical examination, routine blood tests, HLA-B27 genotyping and a dedicated axial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. The patients will also be consented to participate in the second part of the study which will be to compare these 'cases' statistically to a 'control' group of age- and sex-matched CD subjects without MRE evidence of axSpA.

This study aims to: (i) determine the validity, sensitivity and specificity of MRE as a screening tool for axSpA in CD patients using dedicated axial MRI scans with clinical assessment as the gold standard; (ii) devise an algorithm of clinical indices that can be used as a screening tool for axSpA in CD cases.
Study meals were administered in commonly consumed serving sizes (6 oz fish \[cod fillet\]) and provided comparable amounts of TMAO dietary precursors. Each meal was served with one cup of water, administered in a single day and separated by a 1-week washout period.
Background: A prevalence of non-suicidal self-injury is not easily assessed; however, meta-analyses found a lifetime prevalence of 17% in non-clinical student samples. This estimate increases to 50-74% in psychiatric populations. Non-suicidal self-injury is an important predictor for later suicidal behavior and death by suicide. Although non-suicidal self-injury is highly prevalent, there is no evidence for specific treatment for non-suicidal self-injury in adolescents. Reviews find that internet-based interventions guided by a therapist are effective for several psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and depression in adult population. Patients with stigmatizing illnesses such as non-suicidal self-injury may be reluctant to seek help and adhere with treatment while internet-based interventions are more appealing. There is a need for trials investigating the effect of specialized interventions for non-suicidal self-injury in youth, including digital interventions.

Objective: To investigate the effect of an internet-based intervention, Emotion Regulation Individual Therapy for Adolescents (ERITA), as add-on to treatment as usual in 13-17-year-old patients with non-suicidal self-injury referred to Child- and Adolescent Mental Health Services with subsequent non-suicidal self-injury as primary outcome assessed by Deliberate Self-Harm Inventory - Youth. Further clinical outcomes such as quality of life, depression, anxiety and stress, as well as emotion regulation difficulties will be assessed as secondary outcomes.

Method and materials: This is a randomized, clinical, superiority, multicenter trial in a parallel group design. Patients will be recruited from Child- and Adolescent Mental Health Services in three of the Danish Regions: The trial inclusion period will be from primo 2022 to ultimo 2023. The experimental intervention is therapist guided internet-based ERITA provided exclusively online as add-on to treatment as usual in the experimental group. Treatment as usual is provided by multidisciplinary teams in outpatient clinics in all participating regions. We expect to include 356 participants and one of their parents.

Participant will be randomized into the RGM study arm for the first 6 months. At the 6-month rerandomization point, if the patient is a non-responder (A1c has not improved by at least 1 percentage point), patient will be randomized again with one arm being a continuation of RGM, with the addition of a CHW to provide tailored support.
Decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) and polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs) are emerging pollutants that seriously threaten the ecological safety of the aquatic environment. However, the hepatotoxicity effect of their combined exposure on aquatic organisms has not been reported to date. In, this study, the effects of single or co-exposure of DBDPE and PS-NPs on grass carp hepatocytes were explored and biomarkers related to oxidative stress, ferroptosis, and inflammatory cytokines were evaluated. The results show that both single and co-exposure to DBDPE and PS-NPs caused oxidative stress. Oxidative stress was induced by increasing the contents of pro-oxidation factors (ROS, MDA, and LPO), inhibiting the activity of antioxidant enzymes (CAT, GPX, T-SOD, GSH, and T-AOC), and downregulating the mRNA expressions of antioxidant genes (GPX1, GSTO1, SOD1, and CAT); the effects of combined exposure were stronger overall. Both single and co-exposure to DBDPE and PS-NPs also elevated Fe2+ content, promoted the expressions of TFR1, STEAP3, and NCOA4, and inhibited the expressions of FTH1, SLC7A11, GCLC, GSS, and GPX4; these effects resulted in iron overload-induced ferroptosis, where co-exposure had stronger adverse effects on ferroptosis-related biomarkers than single exposure. Moreover, single or co-exposure enhanced inflammatory cytokine levels, as evidenced by increased mRNA expressions of IL-6, IL-12, IL-17, IL-18, IL-1β, TNF-α, IFN-γ, and MPO. Co-exposure exhibited higher expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines compared to single exposure. Interestingly, the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 intervention diminished the above changes. In brief, the results suggest that DBDPE and PS-NPs trigger elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines in grass crap hepatocytes. This elevation is achieved via oxidative stress and iron overload-mediated ferroptosis, where cytotoxicity was stronger under co-exposure compared to single exposure. Overall, the findings contribute to elucidating the potential hepatotoxicity mechanisms in aquatic organisms caused by co-exposure to DBDPE and PS-NPs.
Rehmannia glutinosa is widely recognized as a prominent medicinal herb employed by practitioners across various generations for the purpose of fortifying kidney yin. Within Rehmannia glutinosa, the compound known as catalpol (CAT) holds significant importance as a bioactive constituent. However, the protective effects of CAT on kidneys, including ameliorative effects on chronic kidney disease - most prominently renal anemia and renal fibrosis - have not been clearly defined. In this study, the kidney injury model of NRK-52E cells and C57BL/6N male mice was prepared by exposure to aristolochic acid I (AA-I), and it was discovered that CAT could ameliorate oxidative stress injury, inflammatory injury, apoptosis, renal anemia, renal fibrosis, and other renal injuries both in vivo and in vitro. Further treatment of NRK-52E cells with Nrf2 inhibitors (ML385) and activators (ML334), as well as NF-κB inhibitors (PDTC), validated CAT's ability to target Nrf2 activation. Furthermore, the expression of phosphorylated NF-κB p65, IL-6, and Cleaved-Caspase3 protein was inhibited. CAT also inhibited NF-κB, and then inhibited the expression of IL-6, p-STAS3, TGF-β1 protein. Therefore, CAT can regulate Nrf2/NF-κB signaling pathway, significantly correct renal anemia and renal fibrosis, and is conducive to the preservation of renal structure and function, thus achieving a protective effect on the kidneys.
<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prepare a contrast medium which is used for X-ray inspections, improves the stability of liposomes and the retention stability of an iodine compound, enhances the retainability of a contrast compound in blood, achieves the efficient delivery and good targeting of the contrast agent, and especially has an excellent tumor-imaging property.  <P>SOLUTION: This contrast medium for the X-ray inspections contains liposomes made by a supercritical carbon dioxide method. The liposome contains at least one of cationic lipids, sterol compounds, glycol lipids, and glycerol lipids in the lipid membrane of the liposome, and contains the water-soluble iodine-based compound in the aqueous phase of the liposome. Thereby, the stability of the liposome and the retention stability of the iodine compound are improved. The contrast medium for the X-ray inspections does not contain a poisonous solvent such as a chlorine-based solvent, because of being produced by the supercritical carbon dioxide method, and has high safety.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

BACKGROUND: Systematic mediastinal lymph node staging by endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) improves accuracy of staging in patients with early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, patients with locally advanced NSCLC commonly undergo only selective lymph node sampling. This study aimed to determine the proportion of patients with locally advanced NSCLC in whom systematic endoscopic mediastinal staging identified PET-occult lymph node metastases, and to describe the consequences of PET-occult disease on radiotherapy planning.
METHODS: This prospective, international, multicentre, single-arm, international study was conducted at seven tertiary lung cancer centres in four countries (Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and the USA). Patients aged 18 years or older with suspected or known locally advanced NSCLC underwent systematic endoscopic mediastinal lymph node staging before combination chemoradiotherapy or high-dose palliative radiotherapy. The primary endpoint was the proportion of participants with PET-occult mediastinal lymph node metastases shown following systematic endoscopic staging. The study was prospectively registered with Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry, ACTRN12617000333314.
FINDINGS: From Jan 30, 2018, to March 23, 2022, 155 patients underwent systematic endoscopic mediastinal lymph node staging and were eligible for analysis. 58 (37%) of patients were female and 97 (63%) were male. Discrepancy in extent of mediastinal disease identified by PET and EBUS-TBNA was observed in 57 (37% [95% CI 29-44]) patients. PET-occult lymph node metastases were identified in 18 (12% [7-17]) participants, including 16 (13% [7-19]) of 123 participants with clinical stage IIIA or cN2 NSCLC. Contralateral PET-occult N3 disease was identified in nine (7% [2-12]) of 128 participants staged cN0, cN1, or cN2. Identification of PET-occult disease resulted in clinically significant changes to treatment in all 18 patients. In silico dosimetry studies showed the median volume of PET-occult lymph nodes receiving the prescription dose of 60 Gy was only 10·1% (IQR 0·1-52·3). No serious adverse events following endoscopic staging were reported.
INTERPRETATION: Our findings suggests that systematic endoscopic mediastinal staging in patients with locally advanced or unresectable NSCLC is more accurate than PET alone in defining extent of mediastinal involvement. Standard guideline-recommended PET-based radiotherapy planning results in suboptimal tumour coverage. Our findings indicate that systematic endoscopic staging should be routinely performed in patients with locally advanced NSCLC being considered for radiotherapy to accurately inform radiation planning and treatment decision making in patients with locally advanced NSCLC.
FUNDING: None.

Reflexology is defined as a holistic treatment based on stimulating the nerves and blood circulation in the body by manually stimulating the reflex points in the hands and feet corresponding to all parts of the body, organs and systems. In the literature, there are many studies conducted in different samples to evaluate the effectiveness of reflexology massage. Hemodialysis patients are also included in these samples. Hemodialysis patients are faced with many physical and emotional symptoms such as lifestyle changes, psychosocial effects, side effects due to treatment, during their treatment process. Nurses play an important role in alleviating and eliminating these complaints. Objective: It is aimed to determine the effect of foot reflexology applied to dialysis patients on sleep, anxiety and quality of life. Design: Randomized, controlled, prospective study. Setting: University Hospital Hemodialysis Center in Izmir. Patients: Forty patients receiving hemodialysis treatment. Interventions: Nine sessions of reflexology massage will be given to reflex points including the solar plexus, brain, pituitary, thyroid, diaphragm, upper lymphs, lung, spinal cord and adrenal glands. Main Outcome Measures: sleep, anxiety, and quality of life.
Alprazolam extended-release tablets may be administered once daily, preferably in the morning. The tablets should be taken intact; they should not be chewed, crushed, or broken.

The suggested total daily dose ranges between 3 to 6 mg/day. Dosage should be individualized for maximum beneficial effect. While the suggested total daily dosages given will meet the needs of most patients, there will be some patients who require doses greater than 6 mg/day. In such cases, dosage should be increased cautiously to avoid adverse effects.

Inhaled budesonide is absorbed into the circulation and can be systemically active. Effects of budesonide on the HPA axis are not observed with the therapeutic doses of budesonide in BREZTRI AEROSPHERE. However, exceeding the recommended dosage or coadministration with a strong cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitor may result in HPA dysfunction [see Warnings and Precautions (5.9) and Drug Interactions (7.1)]. 

Because of the possibility of significant systemic absorption of ICS, patients treated with BREZTRI AEROSPHERE should be observed carefully for any evidence of systemic corticosteroid effects. Particular care should be taken in observing patients postoperatively or during periods of stress for evidence of inadequate adrenal response. 

It is possible that systemic corticosteroid effects, such as hypercorticism and adrenal suppression (including adrenal crisis) may appear in a small number of patients who are sensitive to these effects. If such effects occur, appropriate therapy should be initiated as needed.
The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between cuproptosis-related genes and immunoinfiltration in keloid, develop a predictive model for keloid occurrence, and explore potential therapeutic drugs. The microarray datasets (GSE7890 and GSE145725) were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between keloid and nonkeloid samples. Key genes were identified through immunoinfiltration analysis and DEGs and then analyzed for Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, followed by the identification of protein-protein interaction networks, transcription factors, and miRNAs associated with key genes. Additionally, a logistic regression analysis was performed to develop a predictive model for keloid occurrence, and potential candidate drugs for keloid treatment were identified. Three key genes (FDX1, PDHB, and DBT) were identified, showing involvement in acetyl-CoA biosynthesis, mitochondrial matrix, oxidoreductase activity, and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Immune infiltration analysis suggested the involvement of B cells, Th1 cells, dendritic cells, T helper cells, antigen-presenting cell coinhibition, and T cell coinhibition in keloid. These genes were used to develop a logistic regression-based nomogram for predicting keloid occurrence with an area under the curve of 0.859 and good calibration. We identified 32 potential drug molecules and extracted the top 10 compounds based on their P-values, showing promise in targeting key genes and potentially effective against keloid. Our study identified some genes in keloid pathogenesis and potential therapeutic drugs. The predictive model enhances early diagnosis and management. Further research is needed to validate and explore clinical implications.
