Adult Patients 18 Years of Age and Older

The efficacy of levocetirizine dihydrochloride for the treatment of the uncomplicated skin manifestations of chronic idiopathic urticaria was evaluated in two multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trials of 4 weeks duration in adult patients 18 to 85 years of age with chronic idiopathic urticaria. The two trials included one 4-week dose-ranging trial and one 4-week single-dose level efficacy trial. These trials included 423 patients (139 males and 284 females). Most patients (>90%) were Caucasian and the mean age was 41. Of these patients, 146 received levocetirizine dihydrochloride 5 mg once daily in the evening. Efficacy was assessed based on patient recording of pruritus severity on a severity score of 0 to 3 (0 = none to 3 = severe). The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean reflective pruritus severity score over the first week and over the entire treatment period. Additional efficacy variables were the instantaneous pruritus severity score, the number and size of wheals, and duration of pruritus.

The dose-ranging trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of levocetirizine dihydrochloride 2.5, 5, and 10 mg once daily in the evening. In this trial, each of the three doses of levocetirizine dihydrochloride demonstrated greater decrease in the reflective pruritus severity score than placebo and the difference was statistically significant for all three doses (see Table 6).

The single dose level trial evaluated the efficacy of levocetirizine dihydrochloride 5 mg once daily in the evening compared to placebo in patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria over a 4-week treatment period. Levocetirizine dihydrochloride 5 mg demonstrated a greater decrease from baseline in the reflective pruritus severity score than placebo and the difference from placebo was statistically significant.

Duration of pruritus, number and size of wheals, and instantaneous pruritus severity score also showed significant improvement over placebo. The significant improvement in the instantaneous pruritus severity score over placebo confirmed end of dosing interval efficacy (see Table 6).

Pediatric Patients

There are no clinical efficacy trials in pediatric patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)].
Food supplement based on milk protein serum (Isolac Instant), acetyl-carnitine, hydroxy-methyl-butyrate, arginine, inositol, coenzyme Q10 and extracts of perilla, maca and mallow. Perilla supports the body's natural defences, maca has a tonic and metabolic support action and mallow has an emollient and soothing action (digestive system, urinary tract). Calcium, vitamin D and vitamin K2 complete the formulation. Calcium contributes to energy metabolism and is necessary for maintaining normal bones. Vitamin D modulates the immune system and contributes to regular muscle function. Vitamin aK2 contributes to proper blood clotting and maintenance of normal bones.
BACKGROUND: Obesity and its associated comorbidities are major public health concerns for which nutrition is central to disease prevention and management. Pentadecanoic acid (C15:0) has the potential for beneficial effects on obesity, but supplementation has not been studied in humans.
OBJECTIVES: The primary objective was to investigate changes in plasma C15:0 levels after daily supplementation for 12 wk. Additionally, the study aimed to assess safety and tolerability as well as measure potential markers of physiologic response.
METHODS: This was a single-center, double-blind, randomized, controlled, 2-arm trial of 200 mg C15:0 or placebo daily for 12 wk in young adults with overweight or obesity.
RESULTS: A total of 30 participants with a mean age of 20.0 ± 2.1 y and a mean body mass index of 33.4 ± 5.3 kg/m2 were included. In total, 20 participants received C15:0 supplement and 10 received placebo. The mean increase in circulating C15:0 for the treatment group was 1.88 μg/mL greater than that of the placebo group (P = 0.003). No significant adverse events occurred. Half of the participants in the treatment group had a posttreatment C15:0 level >5 μg/mL. In these individuals, there were significantly greater decreases in alanine aminotransferase (-29 U/L, P = 0.001) and aspartate aminotransferase (-6 U/L, P = 0.014), as well as a greater increase in hemoglobin (0.60 g/dL, P = 0.010), as compared with participants that did not reach a posttreatment level >5 μg/mL.
CONCLUSIONS: Daily C15:0 supplementation increased circulating C15:0 levels in young adults with overweight or obesity. End-of-treatment C15:0 >5 μg/mL was associated with potentially relevant improvements in clinical indices, warranting further study. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT04947176.
Before operation,patients were performed CT -guided hook wire localization(20G×120mm, PAJUNK medizintechnologie, Geisingen in Germany). patients were placed on a CT table in a suitable position(supine, prone, lateral) to obtain the shortest needle insertion route for their initial CT scan. Local anesthesia of the skin and planned puncture tract was performed using 10ml Lidocaine 1%. Next, the needle was inserted into or near the pulmonary nodule.
In MS Study 1 and Study 2, patients treated with ZEPOSIA had an average increase of approximately 1 to 2 mm Hg in systolic pressure over patients who received IFN beta-1a, and no effect on diastolic pressure. The increase in systolic pressure was first detected after approximately 3 months of treatment and persisted throughout treatment. Hypertension was reported as an adverse reaction in 3.9% of patients treated with ZEPOSIA 0.92 mg and in 2.1% of patients who received IFN beta-1a. Two patients treated with ZEPOSIA in MS Study 1 and one patient treated with interferon (IFN) beta-1a in Study 2 experienced a hypertensive crisis that was not clearly influenced by a concomitant medication.

The mean increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in UC patients treated with ZEPOSIA is similar to patients with MS. In UC Study 1 and Study 3, the average increase from baseline in SBP was 3.7 mm Hg in patients treated with ZEPOSIA and 2.3 mm Hg in patients treated with placebo. In UC Study 2, the average increase from baseline in SBP was 5.1 mm Hg in patients treated with ZEPOSIA and 1.5 mm Hg in patients treated with placebo. There was no effect on DBP.

Hypertension was reported as an adverse reaction in 1.2% of patients treated with ZEPOSIA 0.92 mg and none in patients treated with placebo in UC Study 1 and Study 3, and in 2.2% and 2.2% of patients in UC Study 2, respectively. Hypertensive crisis was reported in two patients receiving ZEPOSIA and one patient receiving placebo.

Blood pressure should be monitored during treatment with ZEPOSIA and managed appropriately.
This is a non-interventional pilot study dedicated to PET imaging for patients with metastatic or recurrent advanced cancer melanoma before and after immune therapy interventions with an anti-TIM-3 monoclonal antibody, with or without an anti-PD1 antibody.

PET/CT will be used to investigate the bio-distribution of 18F-Clofarabine in patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma before and 2 to 4 weeks after immune system activating interventions, namely an anti-TIM-3 monoclonal antibody, alone or in combination with an anti-PD1 antibody. Clofarabine is a FDA-approved drug for treatment of relapsed or refractory pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (December 2004) and is gaining importance for treating adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Despite extensive preclinical toxicity studies and multiple human phase I studies, the exact bio-distribution of Clofarabine remains unknown. The labeling of Clofarabine with 18F allows the in vivo imaging of its bio-distribution using only minimal concentrations of the therapeutically active doses. The radioactive labeling of clofarabine does not change the parent molecule since a 19F present in the parent compound is simply replaced by an 18F.

The investigators hypothesize that imaging the bio-distribution of clofarabine non-invasively will provide insights into the bio-distribution of the drug in vivo. Imaging the bio-distribution of radiolabeled Clofarabine may help to better understand the side effects caused by therapeutic doses. Importantly, the investigators want to understand if interventions activating the immune system impact the bio-distribution of 18F-Clofarabine. This is because the enzyme dCK that is required to activate the prodrug clofarabine is highly expressed in activated immune cells (3).

Dynamic PET/CT imaging with 18F-Clofarabine will be performed in 10 patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma who have progressed following treatment with an anti-PD-1 antibody. 18F-Clofarabine PET/CT scans will be collected before and 2-4 weeks after treatment with an anti-TIM-3 monoclonal antibody, with or without an anti-PD1 antibody. Imaging can be completed without exposing human subjects to any significant risk. It should be noted, that only trace amounts (nano-molar concentrations in saline solution) of the labeled 18F-Clofarabine will be administered intravenously. Thus, mass effects of the drug and any toxic effects can be ruled out. Tracer concentrations in all organs can be quantified non-invasively in organs which may provide insights into the whole-body drug distribution. Investigators have now seen in humans and non-human primates the exact bio-distribution that one would expect with uptake in bone marrow, spleen, LN and, if patients are young, in thymus. Liver uptake is non-specific and likely due to hepatic clearance via biliary system. There is no retention in other organs which does not mean that there is no low background activity. Tracer uptake is proportional to dCK activity in tissues.
The utility model discloses an administering device for preventing upper respiratory tract from being infected. The model aims to tackle technical problems in long-term, direct or partial administration on affected part during the clinical treatment for upper respiratory tract infection disease. The main technical solution provides a drug administration stick which basically tallies with the inner diameter of a nasal cavity. The drug administration stick is made of the medical sponge containing liquid or cream remedy, and the rear of the stick connects with a connection wire. A rear soft plastic lid connects with the connection wire, and the diameter of the rear lid is slightly longer than the inner diameter of the nasal cavity so as to extract the drug administration stick at any moment. The utility model can directly apply the medicament on affected part of rhinopharynx. The administering drug brings about good efficacy and is convenient for extraction.
Physical activity and lifestyle interventions, including exercise, are recommended for individuals with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Weight loss has been found to improve MASLD histologically, but exercise alone can also reduce liver fat accumulation, even without significant weight loss. Exercise has positive effects on chronic inflammation, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and mitochondrial function in MASLD patients. Studies suggest that both aerobic and resistance exercise are effective in reducing fat content and liver enzyme levels in MASLD, and thereby generate positive effects on insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular risk. The potential of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) is large in various settings, but was never explored in this population. Moreover, the combination with strength training can have additional health effects which remain to be explored.

All subjects are recruited in the liver steatosis outpatient clinic of the university hospital in Ghent by the physicians and researchers of this study. After patient selection and obtaining informed consent, they will be screened in the rehabilitation center for cardiorespiratory fitness.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The PillCam patency capsule (PC) without a radio frequency identification tag was released to preclude retention of the small bowel capsule endoscope (CE) in Japan in 2012. We conducted a multicenter study to determine tag-less PC-related adverse events (AEs).
METHODS: We first conducted a retrospective survey using a standardized data collection sheet for the clinical characteristics of PC-related AEs among 1096 patients collected in a prospective survey conducted between January 2013 and May 2014 (Cohort 1). Next, we retrospectively investigated additional AEs that occurred before and after Cohort 1 within the period June 2012 and December 2014 among 1482 patients (Cohort 2).
RESULTS: Of the 2578 patients who underwent PC examinations from both cohorts, 74 AEs occurred among 61 patients (2.37%). The main AEs were residual parylene coating in 25 events (0.97%), PC-induced small bowel obstruction, suspicious of impaction, in 23 events (0.89%), and CE retention even after patency confirmation in 10 events (0.39%). Residual parylene coating was significantly associated with Crohn's disease (P < 0.01). Small bowel obstruction was significantly associated with physicians with less than 1 year of experience handling the PC and previous history of postprandial abdominal pain (P < 0.01 and P < 0.03, respectively). CE retention was ascribed to erroneous judgment of PC localization in all cases.
CONCLUSIONS: This large-scale multicenter study provides evidence supporting the safety and efficiency of a PC to preclude CE retention. Accurate PC localization in patients without excretion and confirmation of previous history of postprandial abdominal pain before PC examinations is warranted (UMIN000010513).
Absorption of atovaquone may be reduced in patients with diarrhea or vomiting. If MALARONE is used in patients who are vomiting, parasitemia should be closely monitored and the use of an antiemetic considered. [See Dosage and Administration (2).] Vomiting occurred in up to 19% of pediatric patients given treatment doses of MALARONE. In the controlled clinical trials, 15.3% of adults received an antiemetic when they received atovaquone/proguanil and 98.3% of these patients were successfully treated. In patients with severe or persistent diarrhea or vomiting, alternative antimalarial therapy may be required.
INTRODUCTION: To study the HbA1c trajectory from the time of diagnosis to examine if patients at the greatest risk for severe microangiopathy can be identified early allowing clinicians to intervene as soon as possible to avoid complications.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: In a population-based observational study, 447 patients diagnosed with type 1 diabetes before 35 years of age, 1983-1987, were followed from diagnosis until 2019. Mean HbA1c was calculated each year for each patient. Severe diabetic microangiopathy was defined as proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) or macroalbuminuria (nephropathy).
RESULTS: After 32 years, 27% had developed PDR and 8% macroalbuminuria. Patients with weighted HbA1c (wHbA1c); <57 mmol/mol; <7.4% did not develop PDR or macroalbuminuria. The HbA1c trajectories for patients developing PDR and macroalbuminuria follow separate courses early on and stay separated for 32 years during the follow-up. Patients without severe complications show an initial dip, after which HbA1c slowly increases. HbA1c in patients with severe complications directly rises to a high level within a few years. Mean HbA1c calculated for the period 5-8 years after diabetes onset strongly predicts the development of severe complications. Females with childhood-onset diabetes exhibit a high peak in HbA1c during adolescence associated with higher wHbA1c and higher prevalence of PDR.
CONCLUSIONS: The HbA1c trajectory from diabetes onset shows that mean HbA1c for the period 5-8 years after diagnosis strongly predicts severe microangiopathy. Females with childhood-onset diabetes exhibit a high peak in HbA1c during adolescence associated with higher wHbA1c and a higher prevalence of PDR.
A peripheral blood TCR marker for lung cancer, a detection kit therefor and an application thereof. The marker comprises at least one of the proteins set forth in the sequence SpecSeq1-100. On the basis of a high-throughput sequencing method, only a small amount of peripheral blood needs to be taken. RNA is extracted, and an immune profile library is established by means of processing of samples. Next, a characteristic TCR sequence in the peripheral blood of lung cancer is first determined by means of high-throughput sequencing and TCR data analysis, and then test results of a sample to be tested are compared to the characteristic TCR sequence so as to determine whether a patient has lung cancer. In the method, a huge number of lung cancer-specific TCR sequences may be compared at the same time, which has higher specificity and accuracy than detecting one or several markers separately, thereby increasing the diagnosis efficiency.
The hygiene hypothesis proposes that decreased exposure to infectious agents in developed countries may contribute to the development of allergic and autoimmune diseases. Trichinella spiralis, a parasitic roundworm, causes trichinellosis, also known as trichinosis, in humans. T. spiralis had many hosts, and almost any mammal could become infected. Adult worms lived in the small intestine, while the larvae lived in muscle cells of the same mammal. T. spiralis was a significant public health threat because it could cause severe illness and even death in humans who eat undercooked or raw meat containing the parasite. The complex interactions between gastrointestinal helminths, gut microbiota, and the host immune system present a challenge for researchers. Two groups of mice were infected with T. spiralis vs uninfected control, and the experiment was conducted over 60 days. The 16S rRNA gene sequences and untargeted LC/MS-based metabolomics of fecal and serum samples, respectively, from different stages of development of the Trichinella spiralis-mouse model, were examined in this study. Gut microbiota alterations and metabolic activity accompanied by parasite-induced immunomodulation were detected. The inflammation parameters of the duodenum (villus/crypt ratio, goblet cell number and size, and histological score) were involved in active inflammation and oxidative metabolite profiles. These profiles included increased biosynthesis of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan while decreasing cholesterol metabolism and primary and secondary bile acid biosynthesis. These disrupted metabolisms adapted to infection stress during the enteral and parenteral phases and then return to homeostasis during the encapsulated phase. There was a shift from an abundance of Bacteroides in the parenteral phase to an abundance of probiotic Lactobacillus and Treg-associated-Clostridia in the encapsulated phase. Th2 immune response (IL-4/IL-5/IL-13), lamina propria Treg, and immune hyporesponsiveness metabolic pathways (decreased tropane, piperidine and pyridine alkaloid biosynthesis and biosynthesis of alkaloids derived from ornithine, lysine, and nicotinic acid) were all altered. These findings enhanced our understanding of gut microbiota and metabolic profiles of Trichinella -infected mice, which could be a driving force in parasite-shaping immune system maintenance.
Core-shell particles have a hydrophobic core and a shell formed of or containing hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG). The HPG can be covalently bound to the one or more materials that form the core or coated thereon. The HPG coating can be modified to adjust the properties of the particles. For example, unmodified HPG coatings impart stealth properties to the particles which resist non-specific protein absorption. Alternatively, the hydroxyl groups on the HPG coating can be chemically modified to form functional groups that react with functional groups on tissue or otherwise interact with tissue to adhere the particles to the tissue, cells, or extracellular materials, such as proteins. Such functional groups include, but not limited to, aldehydes, amines, and O-substituted oximes. Topical formulation for application to the skin contain these HPG coated nanoparticles. In some embodiments, the particles include therapeutic, diagnostic, nutraceutical, and/or prophylactic agents such as those used as sunblock compositions.
