The Ferrioxamine (FOM) family of chelates and amide homologs thereof provide excellent contrast agents for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The magnetic dipole generated by unpaired electrons within the paramagnetic Fe(III) atoms, cause a local reduction in the bulk magnetic field Bz of the MR system. The resulting shorting of the T1 (spin lattice) relaxation time in the local hydrogen protons within the area of interest, causes an intense "free induction signal" and a corresponding modulation in the collected scanning data. The contrast agent within the tissue or organ of interest causes the tissue to appear on the MR display as a high intensity or white area. Background tissue is displayed as darker or lower intensity greys. FOM does not penetrate the blood-brain-barrier under normal circumstances; and is therefore useful in detecting the extravasation of arterial blood in the extravascular space during cerebral hemorrhaging and in the endema fluid surrounding tumors. The amide homologs form functional groups which enable the FOM contrast agents to go into solution readily, and promote organ selectivity.
Keloids that were randomized to the treatment group, were exposed to Narrowband-UVB (NB-UVB). Targeted UVB will be delivered to the keloid for up to 16 weeks using the Lumera UVB light phototherapy device (Daavlin, Bryan Ohio, USA).The affected skin will be irradiated using a hand-held fiber optic cable with an adjustable aperture.
OBJECTIVES: Nowadays, few studies have examined the relationships between sleep duration and abnormal gut health. In this study, we used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to investigate the correlations between habitual sleep duration and abnormal bowel symptoms in adults.
METHODS: This study included 11,533 participants aged ≥ 20 years from the NHANES conducted during 2005-2010. Chronic constipation and chronic diarrhea were defined based on the Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) and frequency of bowel movements. Sleep duration was assessed based on the self-report questionnaire and classified into three groups: short sleep duration (< 7 h), normal sleep duration (7-9 h), and long sleep duration (> 9 h). Weighted data were calculated according to analytical guidelines. Logistic regression models and restricted cubic spline curves (RCS) were used to assess and describe the association between sleep duration and chronic diarrhea and constipation. Univariate and stratified analyses were also performed.
RESULTS: There were 949 (7.27%) adults aged 20 years and older with chronic diarrhea and 1120 (8.94%) adults with constipation among the 11,533 individuals. A positive association was found between short sleep duration and chronic constipation, with a multivariate-adjusted OR of 1.32 (95% CI: 1.05-1.66). Additionally, long sleep duration was significantly associated with an increased risk of chronic diarrhea (OR: 1.75, 95% CI: 1.08-2.84, P = 0.026). The RCS models revealed a statistically significant nonlinear association (P for non-linearity < 0.05) between sleep duration and chronic diarrhea. Furthermore, obesity was found to modify the association between sleep duration and chronic diarrhea and constipation (p for interaction = 0.044).
CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that both long and short sleep durations are associated with a higher risk of chronic diarrhea and constipation in the general population. Furthermore, a non-linear association between sleep duration and these conditions persists even after adjusting for case complexities.
PURPOSE:To provide a mutant of Bordetella pertussis phase-I, free from pertussis toxicity and producing a pertussis toxin protein devoid of a part of subunit capable of deriving an antibody neutralizing the biological activity of pertussis toxin. CONSTITUTION:Phase-I cell of Bordetella pertussis is cultured by conventional method and washed under centrifugal treatment. The obtained bacterial cells are suspended in a tris-maleic acid buffer solution at a concentration of 10<10>mol./ml, added with 25-50mug/ml of nitrosoguanidine as a mutagenic agent and shaken for 60min. The product is subjected to centrifugal washing in a liquid medium, properly diluted and cultured on a solid medium by plate culture. A colony on the plate is picked up, inoculated in a liquid medium, cultured by shaking culture and screened with respect to the supernatant liquid of the cultured product to obtain a 79G strain (FERM BP-1902) which is inert to the clustering of CHO cell and reactive with a polyclonal antibody of pertussis toxin. The 79G strain is cultured in a medium added with a cyclodextrin and a pertussis toxin or protein devoid of a part of subunit, especially subunit S1 is separated from the cultured product.
AIM: To explore the neuroprotective potential of hyperforin and elucidate its underlying molecular mechanisms involved in its therapeutic effects against vascular cognitive impairment (VCI).
METHODS: The active compounds and possible targets of Hypericum perforatum L. that may be effective against VCI were found by network pharmacology in this research. We utilized bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) surgery to induce a VCI mouse model. Morris water maze (MWM) and Y-maze tests were used to assess VCI mice's cognitive abilities following treatment with hyperforin. To evaluate white matter lesions (WMLs), we utilized Luxol fast blue (LFB) stain and immunofluorescence (IF). Neuroinflammation was assessed using IF, western blot (WB), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The effects of hyperforin on microglia were investigated by subjecting the BV2 microglial cell line to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) stimulation. The expressions of VEGFR2 , p-SRC, SRC, VEGFA, and inflammatory markers including IL-10, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 were subsequently assessed.
RESULTS: The VEGFR2 /SRC signaling pathway is essential for mediating the protective properties of hyperforin against VCI according to network pharmacology analysis. In vivo findings demonstrated that hyperforin effectively improved BCCAO-induced cognitive impairment. Furthermore, staining results showed that hyperforin attenuated WMLs and reduced microglial activation in VCI mice. The hyperforin treatment group's ELISA results revealed a substantial decrease in IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α levels. According to the results of in vitro experiments, hyperforin decreased the release of pro-inflammatory mediators (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β) and blocked microglial M1-polarization by modulating the VEGFR2 /SRC signaling pathway.
CONCLUSION: Hyperforin effectively modulated microglial M1 polarization and neuroinflammation by inhibiting the VEGFR2 /SRC signaling pathways, thereby ameliorating WMLs and cognitive impairment in VCI mice.
Hydrogels releasing or producing NO, most preferably photopolymerizable biodegradable hydrogels capable of releasing physiological amounts of NO for prolonged periods of time, are applied to sites on or in a patient in need of treatment thereof for disorders such as restenosis, thrombosis, asthma, wound healing, arthritis, penile erectile dysfunction or other conditions where NO  plays a significant role. The hydrogels are typically formed of macromers, which preferably include biodegradable regions, and have bound thereto groups that are released in situ to elevate or otherwise modulate NO levels at the site where treatment is needed. The macromers can form a homo or hetero-dispersion or solution, which is polymerized to form a hydrogel material, that in the latter case can be a semi-interpenetrating network or interpenetrating network. Compounds to be released can be physically entrapped, covalently or ionically bound to macromer, or actually form a part of the polymeric material. The hydrogel can be formed by ionic and/or covalent crosslinking.  Other active agents, including therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic agents, can also be included within the polymeric material.
An increasing number of women are reporting a collection of non-specific systemic symptoms thought to be caused by their breast implants. The term Breast Implant Illness or "BII" originated with several social media groups. There is no current pathophysiologic explanation or diagnostic test for BII; it is not a recognized medical disease at this time. Recently several studies have been designed and funded to study the role of psychological and social behavioral factors. This study has been designed to scientifically analyze biospecimens from three cohorts of age matched women in the United States. This study aims to address the questions asked by patients, physicians, and the FDA with regard to the scientific validity of BII.
The consequence of treatment with high doses of thiotepa together with other chemotherapy is profound myelosuppression occurring in all patients. Monitor complete blood counts, and provide supportive care for infections, anemia and thrombocytopenia until there is adequate hematopoietic recovery.

For patients receiving thiotepa for treatment of adenocarcinoma of the breast, adenocarcinoma of the ovary, malignant effusions and superficial papillary carcinoma of the urinary bladder, if the bone marrow has been compromised by prior irradiation or chemotherapy, or is recovering from chemotherapy, the risk of severe myelosuppression with thiotepa may be increased. Perform periodic complete blood counts during the course of treatment with thiotepa. Provide supportive care for infections, bleeding, and symptomatic anemia [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

BACKGROUND: Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a rare but grave complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). It is a mechanical complication of myocardial infarction where patients may present either in a compensated state or in cardiogenic shock. The aim of the study is to determine the in-hospital mortality. The study also aims to identify the predictors of outcomes (in-hospital mortality, vasoactive inotrope score (VIS), duration of ICU stay and mechanical ventilation in the postoperative period) and compare the clinical and surgical parameters between survivors and non-survivors.
METHODS: This is a retrospective study. The data of 90 patients was collected from the medical records and the data comprising of 13 patients who underwent VSR closure by single patch technique, or septal occluder, and those who expired before receiving the treatment, was excluded. The data of 77 patients diagnosed with post-AMI VSR and who underwent surgical closure of VSR by double patch technique was included in this study. Clinical findings and echocardiography parameters were recorded from the perioperative period. The statistical software used was SPSS version 27. The primary outcome was determining the in-hospital mortality. The secondary outcome was identifying the clinical parameters that are significantly more in the non-survivors, and the factors predicting the in-hopsital mortality and morbidity (increased duration of ICU stay, and of mechanical ventilation, postoperative requirement of high doses of vasopressors and inotropes). Subgroup analysis was done to identify the relation of various clinical parameters with the postoperative complications. The factors predicting the in-hospital mortality were illustrated by a forest plot.
RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 60.35 (±9.9) years, 56 (72.7%) were males, and 21 (27.3%) were females. Requirement of mechanical ventilation preoperatively (OR 3.92 [CI 2.91-6.96]), cardiogenic shock at presentation (OR 4 [CI 2.33 - 6.85]), requirement of IABP (OR 2.05 [CI 1.38-3.94]), were predictors of mortality. The apical location of VSR had been favorable for survival. The EUROScore II at presentation correlated with the postoperative VIS (level of significance [LS] 0.0011, R 0.36. The in-hospital mortality in this study was 33.76%.
CONCLUSION: The in-hospital mortality of VSR is 33.76%. Cardiogenic shock at presentation, non-apical site of VSR, preoperative requirement of mechanical ventilation, high VIS preoperatively, perioperative utilization of IABP, prolonged CPB time, postoperative duration of mechanical ventilation, and high postoperative VIS were the factors associated with increased odds of in-hospital mortality.
Disclosed are a polysaccharide and the use thereof. Melanin is a high-molecular biochrome mainly distributed in human epidermal cells and keratinocytes, which determines the skin color and hair color of a person. However, over-accumulation of melanin may cause color spots, freckles, dark skin, etc. Provided in the present invention are three polysaccharides, BLH-1-JZ, BLH-2-JZ and BLH-3-JZ, isolated from the rhizome of Adonis amurensis Regel et Radde, the purity of the polysaccharides being high. It is found that the three polysaccharides have excellent freckle removal and whitening activity (the mechanism of freckle removal and whitening involving: inhibiting the proliferation of melanocytes and inhibiting the synthesis of melanin in melanocytes). Same can be used to prepare a face cream for freckle removal and whitening, a face cleanser for freckle removal and whitening, a face mask for freckle removal and whitening, and other cosmetics.

Participants will take minocyline for 8 weeks. Dosing of minocycline will gradually increase from 50 mg per day during Week 1, increase to 50 mg b.i.d. during Week 2, and finally reach 100 mg b.i.d. during Weeks 3-8.
OBJECTIVES: Colchicine forms the mainstay of treatment in FMF. Approximately 5-10% of FMF patients are colchicine resistant and require anti-IL-1 drugs. We aimed to compare the characteristics of colchicine-resistant and colchicine-responsive patients and to develop a score for predicting colchicine resistance at the time of FMF diagnosis.
METHODS: FMF patients (0-18 years) enrolled in the Turkish Paediatric Autoinflammatory Diseases (TURPAID) registry were included. The predictive score for colchicine resistance was developed by using univariate/multivariate regression and receiver operating characteristics analyses.
RESULTS: A total of 3445 FMF patients [256 (7.4%) colchicine-resistant and 3189 colchicine-responsive) were included (female:male ratio 1.02; median age at diagnosis 67.4 months). Colchicine-resistant patients had longer, more frequent attacks and were younger at symptom onset and diagnosis (P < 0.05). Fever, erysipelas-like erythema, arthralgia, arthritis, myalgia, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, chest pain, comorbidities, parental consanguinity and homozygosity/compound heterozygosity for exon 10 MEFV mutations were significantly more prevalent among colchicine-resistant than colchicine-responsive patients (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis in the training cohort (n = 2684) showed that age at symptom onset, attack frequency, arthritis, chest pain and having two exon 10 mutations were the strongest predictors of colchicine resistance. The score including these items had a sensitivity of 81.3% and a specificity of 49.1%. In the validation cohort (n = 671), its sensitivity was 93.5% and specificity was 53.8%.
CONCLUSION: We developed a clinician-friendly and practical predictive score that could help us identify FMF patients with a greater risk of colchicine resistance and tailor disease management individually at the time of diagnosis.
Ischemic stroke (IS), which is the third foremost cause of disability and death worldwide, has inflammation and cell death as its main pathological features. IS can lead to neuronal cell death and release factors such as damage-related molecular patterns, stimulating the immune system to release inflammatory mediators, thereby resulting in inflammation and exacerbating brain damage. Currently, there are a limited number of treatment methods for IS, which is a fact necessitating the discovery of new treatment targets. For this review, current research on inflammation and cell death in ischemic stroke was summarized. The complex roles and pathways of the principal immune cells (microglia, astrocyte, neutrophils, T lymphocytes, and monocytes/macrophage) in the immune system after IS in inflammation are discussed. The mechanisms of immune cell interactions and the cytokines involved in these interactions are summarized. Moreover, the cell death mechanisms (pyroptosis, apoptosis, necroptosis, PANoptosis, and ferroptosis) and pathways after IS are explored. Finally, a summary is provided of the mechanism of action of natural pharmacological active ingredients in the treatment of IS. Despite significant recent progress in research on IS, there remain many challenges that need to be overcome.
