Abstract .            Substituted pyrimidin-2-ones, the salts thereof, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and a method therefor Compounds of the general formula:-                    .         I     (wherein X represents a halogen atom or a trifluoromethy; group; Rl represents an optionally substituted C6-10 carbocyclic aromatic group; and R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl, C7-16 aralkyl or C6-10 aryl group or the group CORla, in which Rla is as defined for Rl, Rl and Rla being the same ordifferent) and where an acidic or basic group is present, the salts thereof have been found to possess excellent metaphase arresting ability and are of use in combating abnormal cell proliferation. Thus a knowledge of the cell division cycles of -the normal and abnormal cells enables a cytotoxic drug to be administered whilst the abnormal cells are in a phase susceptible to attack and whilst the normal cells are in a non-susceptible phase.       The compounds of the invention are prepared by alkylation, deprotection of a protected keto group, oxidation or electxophilic halogenation.       Pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds of formula I, and where appropriate, the physiologically compatible salts thereof; and methods for the use of the compounds are described and claimed.
The patients were trained on fistula care by the researcher. Fistula care training was given to the patients in the control group using face-to-face education technique. In this training, researcher verbally explained fistula care to patients. The training was conducted one-on-one with the patient in the patient's room and lasted 10 minutes. The training was presented to the patient through the lecture method. The training was also supported by the question-and-answer method. The training was given twice, one week apart, when patients came for hemodialysis treatment after the condition of the patients on dialysis stabilized.
Patients will then receive 0.2% preservative-free ropivacaine at 8mL/hr beginning at the conclusion of surgery and delivered for approximately 50 hours (or finish of 400mL) via elastomeric infusion system (OnQ Pain Relief System: Select A Flow, Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Roswell, Georgia). Patients are instructed prior to discharge how to pull the catheters at home. Patients may also return to surgeon's office for catheter removal once the pain ball is empty if they prefer.
The Sub-Study is a prospective single arm trial evaluating a conscious sedation protocol. The Sub-Study will evaluate the safety and performance of the CLAAS device using conscious sedation in comparison with the device delivery safety and performance observed in the CLAAS arm of the RCT. The Sub-Study will be performed in accordance with all protocol requirements and all subjects will be evaluated for Primary Endpoint based on the product performance at the 45 days post procedure assessment. Enrollment in the Sub-Study will not commence until enrollment in the randomized cohort is complete, initial safety of the CLAAS system is confirmed by the DSMB and FDA approval of the Sub-Study has been granted through an IDE Supplement. All subjects enrolled in the conscious sedation single arm study will follow the same clinical protocol requirements and follow-up as the randomized subjects. The Sub-Study will be identified by an NCT that is separate from the RCT with Roll-in.
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the skin, both of which are keratinocyte carcinomas (KCs), account for a half of all cancers in the United States, and over 100,000 diagnoses per year in the VA. The standard treatment for these KCs is excision of the lesion, and they cost the US health care system some $2.5 billion annually and about $100 million annually in the VA. There is no proven means to prevent KCs (except perhaps for a modest benefit of intensive daily sunscreen use). An effective prevention strategy would dramatically change the way high-risk patients are managed and could substantially reduce the costs of care. The investigators' preliminary analysis indicates that the savings will be $116 per high-risk patient and will account for a total national savings of over $11 million. These findings imply that the study would pay for itself by the end of 4 years. The investigators hypothesize that topical 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) chemoprevention will prevent skin cancer surgeries and will be cost-saving. To test this the investigators propose a randomized controlled trial of 5-FU compared to a vehicle control to the face and ears in a high-risk population.

In the study, 1000 Veterans at high-risk of skin cancer defined as at least 2 KCs in the prior 5 years, at least one of which was on the face or ears, will be randomized to 5-FU or a vehicle control cream, and followed for 2 to 4 years. The primary endpoint will be surgery for any KC on the face and ears. The investigators will also assess the cost of care, quality of life, the side effects associated with treatment, and the prevalence and number of actinic keratoses, a skin cancer precursor and itself a cause of morbidity and cost. By targeting patients at high-risk, the study focuses on high-cost patients for whom this treatment could both improve outcomes (cancers and quality of life) and reduce costs.
The management of patients with complex comorbidity involving several organ systems can use an approach focused on each organ system independently or can use an approach trying to integrate various injuries and dysfunction into a single syndrome. Cardiorenal syndromes can develop with an initial injury to either the heart or kidney and then sequential involvement of the second organ. This can occur acutely or chronically. Cardiorenal syndrome type 3 is defined by acute renal injury with subsequent cardiac injury and/or dysfunction. Studies on these patients must use strict inclusion criteria. Pavan reported information on 100 patients with acute kidney injury in India to determine the frequency of cardiorenal syndrome type 3. He excluded patients with significant prior comorbidity. The most frequent causes of acute kidney injury in these patients were drug toxicity, gastroenteritis with volume contraction, and obstetrical complications. This study included 100 patients with acute kidney injury, and 29 developed cardiorenal syndrome type 3. Important outcomes included frequent mortality and chronic renal failure. Other studies have reported that cardiorenal syndrome type 3 occurs relatively infrequently. The analysis of large data bases has demonstrated that the development of acute kidney injury in hospitalized patients has important consequences, including the development of heart failure and increased mortality, but the complexity of these cohorts makes it difficult to determine the time course for the development of multisystem disorders. The pathogenesis of cardiorenal syndrome type 3 involves mitochondrial dysfunction, immune dysregulation, and ischemia-reperfusion. Cardiac events occur secondary to fluid overload, electrolyte disorders, and uremic toxins. These patients need increased attention during hospitalization and outpatient management in an effort to slow the progression of the primary disorder and treat complications.
The usual recommended starting dose is 0.7 mg/kg once daily (up to 50 mg total) administered as a tablet or a suspension (see Preparation of Suspension). Dosage should be adjusted according to blood pressure response. Doses above 1.4 mg/kg (or in excess of 100 mg) daily have not been studied in pediatric patients. (See  Error! Hyperlink reference not valid. and  Pharmacodynamics and Clinical Effects, and  WARNINGS, Hypotension — Volume-Depleted Patients .)

Losartan potassium is not recommended in pediatric patients less than 6 years of age or in pediatric patients with glomerular filtration rate less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (see Error! Hyperlink reference not valid., Pharmacodynamics and Clinical Effects, and PRECAUTIONS).
A 6 weeks online course. Each week participants log on to view videos and read information that focus on a variety of intervention techniques. These include relaxation training, cognitive therapy, sleep restriction, stimulus control, sleep hygiene, psychoeducation, hypnotic tapering and mindfulness training. Participants also monitor their sleep using an online sleep diary and respond to questions regarding their adherence to the program.
Participants will receive 30 mg of oseltamivir via oral suspension once weekly after dialysis exchange. CAPD sessions will occur four times every 24 hours, and participants will receive a total of 6 doses of oseltamivir within the 6-week study period.
Starting at D3 of the menstrual cycle, letrozole 2.5 mg po qd was administered for 5 days. After 1 week, ultrasound was performed to dynamically monitor follicular development, and 75-150 IU im qd of human menopausal gonadotrophin (hMG) given to continue ovulation stimulation as needed, and oestradiol valerate 2 mg po qd was given to regulate endometrial thickness until the follicle developed to 16 mm in diameter and 7 mm in endometrial thickness. The follicles developed to ≥16 mm in diameter and ≥7 mm in lining thickness and were dynamically monitored by ultrasound and serum sex hormone levels to determine the day of ovulation. From the day of ovulation, dexamethasone 10 mg po tid was administered, and cleavage-stage embryos were transferred 2 or 3 days later, or blastocysts were transferred 5 days later. Deferiprone 10 mg po tid was continued for 14 days after transfer.
To record the absorption of nutrients in humans, animals or plants, an extraneous tracer (I) is added to the nutrients or feed, and accumulation of (I) is analysed in samples of e.g. hair, scales, skin fragments, fins and hooves. The amt. of nutrients absorbed is then determined based on this analysis. (I) is pref. a lanthanide.
The goal of this study is to further investigate the role of CI in treating unilateral hearing loss and associated tinnitus. Single-sided deafness (SSD) afflicts approximately 60,000 new patients per year in the United States. The most common causes of these single-sided losses are sudden sensorineural hearing loss, Meniere's disease, trauma, and vestibular schwannoma. Patients with SSD face significant difficulty with communicating in the presence of background noise and in sound localization. Another significant problem for some SSD patients is tinnitus, which can be incapacitating and for which there are no therapies available that are considered to be of sufficient reliability to become a standard of care. Difficulty hearing in background noise and increased tinnitus can lead to significant frustration in social situations and contribute to increased isolation and a decreased quality of life. Treatment options for single sided deafness in the United States include contralateral routing of signals (CROS) hearing aids, bone-anchored hearing aids (BAHA) and use of assistive devices to improve the signal-to-noise in group situations. The first two devices take sound from the affected ear and transmit it to the unaffected ear. The last device consists of having a speaker wear a microphone and routing the signal directly to the patient's ear at a louder listening level. Although these devices can improve speech understanding in some patients, studies have shown that use of these devices does not ameliorate tinnitus or sound localization difficulties. Recent European studies have demonstrated that cochlear implantation (CI) can provide significant improvements in both perceived hearing ability and measured speech comprehension and localization in adult and pediatric patients with unilateral hearing loss. This suggests that CI may be a more effective option for this patient population than the CROS, BAHA or assistive devices.
Subjects will undergo a 76 hour study with 9 hours inpatient and 67 hours outpatient using the closed-loop artificial pancreas controller in predictive low glucose suspend mode. The system will run through the closed-loop system but will utilize the patient's optimized basal rates, correction factors and carb ratios as they would normally run on their own insulin pump. But the mode will have the additional safety net of the pump suspending insulin when it predicts a hypoglycemic event.
BACKGROUND: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a novel form of rapidly reversible heart failure occurring secondary to a stressor that mimics an acute coronary event. The underlying etiology of the stressor is highly variable and can include medical procedures. Pacemaker insertion is an infrequent cause of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
CASE PRESENTATION: An 86-year-old Caucasian woman underwent an uncomplicated pacemaker insertion for symptomatic complete heart block in the background of slow atrial fibrillation. A transient episode of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia was noted on day 1 following the procedure; however, her pacemaker was checked and, as she remained stable, she was discharged home. She presented again 5 days later with symptomatic heart failure. Chest X-ray confirmed pulmonary edema. Echocardiography confirmed new onset severe left ventricle dysfunction. Pacemaker checks were normal and lead placement was confirmed. Though her troponin I was elevated, her coronary angiogram was normal. Contrast enhanced echocardiography suggested apical ballooning favoring Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. She was treated for heart failure and made a good recovery. Her follow-up echocardiography a month later showed significant improvement in left ventricle function.
CONCLUSIONS: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is mediated by a neuro-cardiogenic mechanism due to hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activation. It generally has a good prognosis. Complications though uncommon, can occur and include arrhythmias. Pacemaker insertion as a precipitant stressor is an infrequent cause of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. As pacemaker insertions are more frequent in the elderly age group, this phenomenon should be recognized as a potential complication.
OBJECTIVE: Elinzanetant is a selective neurokinin-1,3 receptor antagonist in development for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms (VMS) associated with menopause. The pivotal, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 3 studies Overall Assessment of efficacy and Safety of elinzanetant In patients with vasomotor Symptoms (OASIS) 1 and 2 will assess the efficacy and safety of elinzanetant in women with VMS.
METHODS: The OASIS 1 and 2 pivotal studies are designed in accordance with regulatory guidance. Postmenopausal women with moderate/severe VMS are randomized to receive 120 mg elinzanetant or placebo once daily for 12 weeks, followed by a 14-week active treatment extension. Primary endpoints are the mean change in frequency and severity of moderate/severe VMS from baseline to weeks 4 and 12. Key secondary endpoints will assess the onset of action and effects on sleep disturbance and menopause-related quality of life. Primary and key secondary endpoints will be analyzed using a mixed model with repeated measures. Feedback from postmenopausal women with VMS was used during protocol development.
RESULTS: Women confirmed the relevance of endpoints that assess the impact of VMS, sleep disturbance, and mood changes, and the need for new nonhormone treatments. Educational materials around study design, conduct and expected assessments and procedures were developed based on questions and concerns raised by women.
CONCLUSIONS: The OASIS 1 and 2 pivotal phase 3 studies will enable assessment of the efficacy and safety of elinzanetant as a treatment for VMS, together with its effect on sleep disturbances, depressive symptoms, and menopause-related quality of life. Feedback from postmenopausal women with VMS was used to maximize patient centricity in the trials.
Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) is a common complication in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) undergoing treatment with levodopa. Glutamate receptor antagonists can suppress LID; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effect of 3-((2-methyl-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)ethynyl)pyridine (MTEP), a metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) antagonist, on dyskinesia. We recorded the neuronal activity of the entopeduncular nucleus and examined responses to cortical electric stimulation in the control group (n = 6) and three groups of rats (male PD model). Saline was intraperitoneally administered to dopamine lesioned (DL) rats (n = 6), levodopa/benserazide (L/B) was administered to LID rats (n = 8), and L/B combined with MTEP was administered to MTEP rats (n = 6) twice daily for 14 days. We administered L/B to LID and MTEP rats 48 h after the final administration of MTEP to examine the chronic effect of MTEP. The control and DL groups did not have LID. The MTEP group had less LID than the LID group (p < .01) on day 1 and day 18. The control group had a typical triphasic pattern consisting of early excitation (early-Ex), inhibition, and late excitation (late-Ex). However, the inhibition phase disappeared, was partially observed, and was fully suppressed in the DL, LID, and MTEP groups, respectively. The cortico-striato-entopeduncular pathway is important in the pathophysiology of LID. mGluR5 antagonism suppresses LID progression by preventing physiological changes in the cortico-striato-entopeduncular pathway. Future studies are required to validate these results.
Subjects will be given medical grade mixtures of oxygen and nitrogen to induce stable plateaus across the range of 100% to 70% SaO2. When the reference system's blood saturation stabilizes at an acceptable plateau level, blood sampling can start. Four to eight arterial blood samples will be collected for each plateau, while keeping at least 20 seconds in between each sample and at least 30 seconds once the plateau has been reached. The blood will be immediately analyzed by the reference CO-Oximeter to measure the arterial oxygen saturation (Functional SaO2). SpO2 values from the Sunrise sensor 2 will be collected electronically simultaneously to blood drawn from the indwelling catheter. Data will be collected under non-motion conditions. The pulse rate will be simultaneously collected over the SpO2 range covered. The reference method for the computation of pulse rate accuracy will be an ECG heart rate. The total duration of the test will be about 1 hour per subject. Data analysis results will provide documentation showing SpO2 and pulse rate accuracy performance of the Sunrise sensor 2 as compared to arterial blood samples measured by Reference CO-Oximetry and to ECG heart rate, respectively.

A cohort of adults referred to a specialist adult eating disorders service will be recruited. A stratified sample of patients will be approached about participating in the study, providing the study inclusion criteria are met, and their responsible clinician does not express concerns about their participation. All study participants will be assessed with the SCAN semi-structured interview (including version 2 of the SCAN, SCANv3s0, SCANv3s1, and SCANv3s9) and will also complete two self-completion measures, the EDE-QS and the SCOFF, randomly ordered. The SCAN items will be asked about in the context of the past 4 weeks and the directly preceding 11 months (i.e., the past year), unless otherwise stated. Additionally, a subset of study participants (n = 25) will be reassessed with the SCANv3s0, SCANv3s1, SCANv3s9, EDE-QS, and SCOFF, for test-retest reliability.
4-week study to assess asthma control as measured by lung function and clinical features, rhinitis treatment, subject-rated overall satisfaction with treatment, and safety outcomes when FLONASE™ 200mcg (FPANS) QD, Singulair 10mg (MON) QD, or placebo QD is added to ADVAIR™ DISKUS™ 100/50mcg (FSC) BID and when Singulair 10mg (MON) QD is added to placebo DISKUS BID in adolescent and adults subjects. Male or female subjects must be symptomatic with both seasonal allergic rhinitis and persistent asthma, and have an FEV1 65-95% of predicted while using an as-needed short-acting beta2-agonist or an allowed ICS or non-ICS controller therapy. Subjects will replace their short-acting beta2-agonist with VENTOLIN™ HFA (for rescue) and will enter a 7-14 day run-in period during which they will continue use of their pre-study controller therapy. At Visit 2, subjects who meet both the asthma and rhinitis randomization criteria will be randomized to double-blind treatment with ADVAIR DISKUS 100/50mcg BID and either FLONASE 200mcg QD, Singulair 10mg QD, or placebo QD, or to placebo DISKUS BID and Singulair 10mg QD. The co-primary efficacy measures will be the mean change from baseline at endpoint in AM PEF, compared between the FSC and the MON treatment groups to assess superiority and compared between the FSC and FSC+MON treatment groups to assess equivalence. Secondary efficacy measures for rhinitis will be mean change from baseline in subject-rated daytime total nasal symptom score and nighttime total nasal symptomatic score averaged over Weeks 1-2 (D-TNSSW1-2 and N-TNSSW1-2, respectively). Secondary efficacy measures for asthma will be mean change from baseline at endpoint in morning pre-dose FEV1, percentage of symptom-free days, and percentage of rescue-free days. Other measures will include subject-rated overall satisfaction with treatment, evening PEF, asthma symptom scores (D-INSSW1-x, N-INSSW1-2), averaged over Weeks 1-2. Descriptive measures will include all total and individual nasal symptoms scores averaged over Weeks1-4. Safety measures will include assessment of clinical adverse events and asthma exacerbations.
