The compsn. comprises (a) >=1 organic solvent for the lacquer, (b) a non-water soluble liq. which is miscible with the lacquer solvent and (c) an emulsifier. On mixing with water, an emulsion or gel is formed which holds the lacquer particles fast. The varnish remover gives rapid removal of the varnish with reduced penetration of the softened varnish under the nails and undesired transfer to the skin. After the varnish has been softened, the residues can be removed by washing with water without causing flocculation of the lacquer component.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to provide updated data on oncologic outcomes following definitive surgical treatment of soft tissue sarcoma of the hand in a cohort of 109 patients, as well as to characterize risk factors for poor oncologic and functional outcomes.
METHODS: We analyzed data from 109 consecutive patients who had definitive surgical treatment for soft tissue sarcoma of the hand performed between 1996 and 2019 by a single surgeon at a sarcoma center. Primary outcomes included functional outcome (assessed by Musculoskeletal Tumor Society scores), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS). We compiled descriptive data and used a multivariable linear model to identify factors associated with functional outcomes. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to estimate 5- and 10-year DFS and OS.
RESULTS: Patients had a median age of 36 years at presentation. Median follow-up was 6.1 years among patients alive at the end of follow-up. The median Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score was 29; functional outcome was worse among patients with high-grade tumors or complications. Among the 107 patients who became disease-free, there were four local recurrences (one with metastasis), six distant recurrences, and one death without recurrence. All local recurrences were deep tumors (two myxofibrosarcoma and two myxoinflammatory fibrosarcoma). Estimated 5- and 10-year DFS rates were 89% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 83% to 96%) and 88% (95% CI: 80% to 95%). There were seven deaths, and the estimated 5- and 10-year OS rates were 95% (95% CI: 90% to 100%) and 92% (95% CI: 84% to 100%). Larger tumor size and higher stage at diagnosis were associated with shorter DFS and OS in univariable analyses; low event rates precluded multivariable analysis of survival.
CONCLUSIONS: Aggressive disease-specific surgical and multidisciplinary treatment can yield long DFS and OS, and good functional outcomes. However, complications and high-grade tumors are associated with worse functional scores.
TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Prognostic II.
Atherosclerosis is a persistent inflammatory condition of the blood vessels associated with abnormalities in lipid metabolism. Development of biomimetic nanoplatforms provides an effective strategy. Herein, inspired by the peptide CLIKKPF spontaneously coupling to phosphatidylserine (PS) on the inner leaflet of cell membranes specifically, MM@NPs were constructed by macrophage membrane spontaneous encapsulation of cyclodextrin-based nanoparticles modified with the peptide CLIKKPF and loaded with the hydrophobic compound resveratrol. MM@NPs could be specifically phagocytized by the activated endothelium with the overexpressed VCAM-1 for enhancing target delivery into the pathological lesion. Additionally, for the ApoE-/- mice, MM@NPs provide comprehensive treatment efficiency in reducing oxidant stress, alleviating the inherent inflammation, and decreasing cholesterol deposition, subsequently resulting in the atherosclerotic plaque regression. Therefore, MM@NPs could be one possible candidate for improving lipid metabolism and inflammation in atherosclerosis.
Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors are currently used in the therapy of erectile dysfunction (ED), which is considered to be an early symptom of cardiovascular disease (CD). Impairment of endothelial function is the early lesion preceding atherosclerosis and is common to ED, CD and vascular complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). Continuous administration of the PDE5 inhibitors tadalafil or sildenafil for four weeks in men with increased cardiovascular risk or type 2 DM has been shown to improve endothelial function measured by flow-mediated dilation and reduction of inflammatory markers. The goal of this study is to investigate whether chronic, long-term treatment with vardenafil improves and/or prevents deterioration of systemic endothelial function in patients with type 2 DM. Study design: longitudinal, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled interventional study. Patients: 106 male patients (n determined by power analysis) with type 2 DM diagnosed and classified according to the guidelines of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes. Beside the antidiabetic treatment, patients will be randomly assigned to receive either placebo or vardenafil, 10 mg p.o. two times a day for 24 weeks. Exclusion criteria: all contraindications to treatment with PDE5 inhibitors. Age range: 40-60 years. Sample size determined by power analysis assuming variations of the primary end point of ± 10% from baseline at 0.05 α level with a power of 80%, a two-sided test and a dropout rate of 15%. Primary end point: serum endothelin 1 levels (decreased/not increased in the verum group vs. not decrease/increased in the placebo group). Other parameters and measurements: Complete clinical workup, weight, height, waist-hip ratio, serum lipids and glucose, hemoglobin glycated (HbA1c), micro- and macroalbuminuria, homocysteine, high reactive C-protein (hsCRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α, fibrinogen, adiponectin, testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and estradiol. All parameters measured at baseline, 4 weeks, 12 weeks and 24 weeks on medication as well as 4 and 24 weeks after discontinuation of the study drug. Study duration: two years. Statistics: descriptive statistics, ANCOVA and multiple regression analysis or non-parametric tests as appropriate by STATA. Ethics: The trial will be registered. Ethics committee approval and patient informed consent will be obtained. Expected outcome and objective: Monitoring of endothelial function deterioration in type 2 DM during chronic administration of Vardenafil. Possibility for a long term-follow up study. Publication in a high impact factor journal.
As with all therapeutic proteins, there is potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies to NOVOLOG MIX 70/30 in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other products may be misleading.

In a 3-month study with an extension in adult patients with type 2 diabetes, 100% of patients who received NOVOLOG MIX 70/30 were positive for anti-insulin antibodies (AIA) at least once during the first 12 months of the study including 91.4% that were positive at baseline. A total of 91.4% of patients who received NOVOLOG MIX 70/30 were positive for anti-drug antibodies (ADA) at least once during the first 12 months of the study, including 62.1% that were positive at baseline.

In a type 2 diabetes clinical trial of NOVOLOG MIX 70/30, initial increase in titers of antibodies to insulin followed by a decrease approaching to baseline values was observed in NOVOLOG MIX 70/30 and Novolin 70/30 treatment groups with similar incidences. These antibodies did not cause deterioration in glycemic control or necessitate increases in insulin dose.

Parsed user data can be used. Plans are excluded using various criteria. Parameters are processed as defined in a configuration system along with checks to determine if a particular plan fits, does not fit, or is inconclusive. The determination considers, for example, conditions and medications for the user when excluding plans. Results of potential plans are provided to the user.
Patients who have relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma are being asked to take part in this study. This research is being done because current treatment does not help everyone with this disease. The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (good and bad) the drug thalidomide has on patients and the lymphoma. Thalidomide has been shown to have activity against other cancers but is not approved by the FDA for treatment of lymphoma. Thalidomide prevents growth of new blood vessels that allow cancer cells to receive nourishment and spread. Another reason for doing the study is that researchers want to learn more about how the drug works and whether some patients respond better than others.
This study is to analyze the association between the time of removal of drain after pancreatic resection and incidence of intra-abdominal complications, such as intra-abdominal infection and pancreatic leakage. We design a prospective randomized study. Patients with pancreatic and periampullar tumors who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) or distal pancreatectomy (DP) are recruited to the study if amylase value in drain(s) is less than 5000 U/L on postoperative day (POD) 1. After obtaining informed consent, eligible patients are randomly allocated to early or late drain removal group on POD 3. In the group A, drain(s) are removed on POD 3, whereas in group B drain is removed on POD 4 or beyond. The primary outcomes are the incidence of intra-abdominal infection and pancreatic fistula; the secondary outcomes include intra-abdominal bleeding, delayed gastric emptying, pulmonary complications, and length of hospital stay.
The Profound Matrix system is a multipurpose (3-in-1) radiofrequency (RF) platform. The clinical study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Profound Matrix system with Sublime applicator, RF applicator and Matrix Pro applicator for aesthetic treatments including its cleared indications of wrinkles, acne scars, striae, and electrocoagulation and hemostasis. The Sublime and Sublative RF applicators are equivalent to those on the European conformity (CE) marked eLos, eTwo, eMatrix device family. The Matrix Pro applicator utilizes micro-needling technology and is new feature of the Profound Matrix system. The Profound Matrix system, including the Matrix Pro applicator are currently cleared for use in the US under FDA 510k K211217. This study aims to evaluate additional indications for treatment through the electrocoagulation and hemostasis mechanism of action for dermal remodeling and improvement in skin conditions to provide study subjects with a safe and effective alternative treatment that can be performed with minimal risks and decreased downtime. Eligible subjects would be healthy adult volunteers between 18 to 75 years of age seeking clinical treatment for indications as listed above. The research is sponsored by Candela Corporation and planned to be conducted at up to 20 sites globally. From the first subject enrollment to the last subject follow-up, the expected total duration is up to 5 years across all sites. The participants will undergo informed consent, screening and enrollment, treatments for the indication to be treated, and follow-up visits at no cost. The data from this research will assist Candela in optimizing treatment parameters, treatment guidelines, providing input to clinical education and marketing material, and support the research and development of micro-needling technology alongside energy-based devices.
With the growth of the older adult population, the number of older adults waitlisted for and undergoing kidney and liver transplantation has increased. Transplantation is an important and definitive treatment for this population. We present a contemporary review of the unique preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative issues that patients older than 65 y face when they undergo kidney or liver transplantation. We focus on geriatric syndromes that are common in older patients listed for kidney or liver transplantation including frailty, sarcopenia, and cognitive dysfunction; discuss important considerations for older transplant recipients, which may impact preoperative risk stratification; and describe unique challenges in intraoperative and postoperative management for older patients. Intraoperative challenges in the older adult include using evidence-based best anesthetic practices, maintaining adequate perfusion pressure, and using minimally invasive surgical techniques. Postoperative concerns include controlling acute postoperative pain; preventing cardiovascular complications and delirium; optimizing immunosuppression; preventing perioperative kidney injury; and avoiding nephrotoxicity and rehabilitation. Future studies are needed throughout the perioperative period to identify interventions that will improve patients' preoperative physiologic status, prevent postoperative medical complications, and improve medical and patient-centered outcomes in this vulnerable patient population.
The current investigation analyzed the date from the Gachon University Gil Medical Center PFO registry. Between March 2014 to February 2017, all consecutive 47 patients with ischemic stroke and PFO documented by bubble contrast with no other identifiable cause of the ischemic event, such as, carotid or intracranial artery stenosis, atrial fibrillation, and thrombus, or atheromatous plaque at the aortic arch (i.e. CS), were analyzed. PFO closure was determined according to the heart-brain team's discretion (the team consisted of an interventional cardiologist, an echocardiographer cardiologist, a neurologist, and a radiologist) based on clinical data, echocardiographic findings, and patients' preference. The Gore® Septal Occluder (WL Gore \& Associates, Inc., Newark, DE, USA) (n=19) and the Amplatzer® PFO occluder (St. Jude Medical, Inc. St.Paul, MN, USA) (n=19) and were used. The Occlutec® PFO occluder was used in one patient who were excluded from the analysis. The Institutional Review Board of Gachon University Gil Medical Center approved this study and all patients provided written informed consent prior to enrollment.

During the period of 12 hours of cervical ripening subject is to remain "nothing per os" (NPO), "nothing per vagina" and undergo continuous fetal heart rate monitoring. No other interventions are to occur during this period of 12 hours, unless clinically indicated.
BACKGROUND: Neuropathic pain (NP) is a common type of pain in clinic. Due to the limited effect of drug treatment, many patients with NP are still troubled by this disease. In recent years, complementary and alternative therapy (CAT) has shown good efficacy in the treatment of NP. As the interest in CAT for NP continues to grow, we conducted a bibliometric study of publications on CAT treatment for NP. The aim of this study is to analyze the development overview, research hotspots and future trends in the field of CAT and NP through bibliometric methodology, so as to provide a reference for subsequent researchers.
METHODS: Publications on CAT in the treatment of NP from 2002 to 2022 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. Relevant countries, institutions, authors, journals, keywords, and references were analyzed bibliometrically using Microsoft Excel 2021, bibliometric platform, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace.
RESULTS: A total of 898 articles from 46 countries were published in 324 journals, and they were contributed by 4455 authors from 1102 institutions. The most influential country and institution are China (n = 445) and Kyung Hee University (n = 63), respectively. Fang JQ (n = 27) and Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine (n = 63) are the author and journal with the most publications in this field. The clinical efficacy, molecular biological mechanisms and safety of CAT for NP are currently hot directions. Low back pain, postherpetic neuralgia, acupuncture, and herbal are the hot topics in CAT and NP in recent years.
CONCLUSION: This study reveals the current status and hotspots of CAT for NP. The study also indicates that the effectiveness and effect mechanism of acupuncture or herbs for treating emotional problems caused by low back pain or postherpetic neuralgia may be a trend for future research.
WARNING: CARDIOVASCULAR AND GASTROINTESTINAL RISKSCardiovascular Risk

  * CELEBREX may cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and stroke, which can be fatal. All nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may have a similar risk. This risk may increase with duration of use. Patients with cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease may be at greater risk. ( 5.1, 14.6) 
  * CELEBREX is contraindicated for the treatment of peri-operative pain in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. ( 4, 5.1) 



Gastrointestinal Risk

  * NSAIDs, including CELEBREX, cause an increased risk of serious gastrointestinal adverse events including bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the stomach or intestines, which can be fatal. These events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms. Elderly patients are at greater risk for serious gastrointestinal events. ( 5.4)

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the efficacy of modified uterine stent in the treatment of mild-to-moderate intrauterine adhesions and explore the relative indicators affecting prognosis prediction.
METHODS: A total of 115 patients with mild-to-moderate intrauterine adhesions received a modified uterine stent placement after hysteroscopy adhesiolysis. The second-look hysteroscopy operated after 3 months surgery, and the third-look hysteroscopy operated after 6 months surgery if necessary. The stent was removed when the cavity shape was repaired, then the reproductive outcomes were followed up one year.
RESULTS: Menstrual blood volume, endometrial thickness and volume had increased significantly after 3 months surgery. The rates of cavity repaired were 86.96% (100/115) after 3 months surgery and 100% (115/115) after 6 months surgery cumulatively. Endometrial thickness after 3-months surgery was positively associated with uterine cavity shape repaired (P<0.01). The receive operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed the rate of uterine cavity shape repaired predicted by the model was 0.92, based on the endometrial thickness after 3-months surgery. The rate of pregnancy was 86.09% (99/115) in one year, while the rate of miscarriage accounted for 26.26% (26/99). The median time interval between stent removal and subsequent conception was 3 months. It showed adhesion recurrence was the risk factor for subsequent pregnancy (P<0.01).
CONCLUSIONS: A modified uterine stent placement under hysteroscopy was an effective approach for mild-to-moderate intrauterine adhesions, which is easy to operate and worthy for clinical promotion. Endometrial thickness measured by ultrasonography probably has predictive value in adhesion recurrence and subsequent pregnancy.
