The randomization code was inserted into numbered and sealed envelopes. A single envelope was opened when the patient was arrived in operating room. All patients gave their informed consent for the study and underwent hysterectomy for benign diseases. After surgery, in all patients, three sticking plasters were applied by the same manner with three port surgery group therefore not only patients but also anesthesiology staff who measure the pain score could not know the type of surgery until data collection was finished. Pain was assessed according to the visual analog scale (VAS) (0 = no pain; 10 = worst pain imaginable). Patients were asked to evaluate the maximal degree of pain. Pain scores were recorded at least at 30 minutes, 1, 12, 24 and 48 hours after surgery. Postoperative pain was measured by two independent anesthesiology staff members for cross-checking. In order to compare the intensity of postoperative pain accurately, all the participants had anesthesia in the same way and postoperative pain was managed by fentanyl-based intravenous patient-controlled analgesia pump (IV-PCA, Baxter healthcare Corporation, U.S.A: bolus dose 0.12mg/kg of fentanyl, lockout interval of 5 min, basal infusion 0.02ml/kg) with the same regimen on both groups. A patient was instructed to press the IV-PCA bolus button when the VAS was 3 or higher. A patient under IV-PCA whose VAS was over 5 received 50mg of Tridol injection intravenously. IV-PCA was removed 48 hours after surgery unless a patient specially asked it. Then, using log data downloaded by a program, we analyzed the number of IV-PCA bolus requests by time interval, total amount of fentanyl consumption, and the number of additional Tridol administration and injection time.

Globally, 4.9 million under-five deaths occurred before celebrating their fifth birthday. Four in five under-five deaths were recorded in sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia. Childhood diarrhea is one of the leading causes of death and is accountable for killing around 443,832 children every year. Despite healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea has a significant effect on the reduction of childhood mortality and morbidity, most children die due to delays in seeking healthcare. Therefore, this study aimed to assess healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea in the top high under-five mortality countries. This study used secondary data from 2013/14 to 2019 demographic and health surveys of 4 top high under-five mortality countries. A total weighted sample of 7254 mothers of under-five children was included. A multilevel binary logistic regression was employed to identify the associated factors of healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea. The statistical significance was declared at a p-value less than 0.05 with a 95% confidence interval. The overall magnitude of healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea in the top high under-five mortality countries was 58.40% (95% CI 57.26%, 59.53%). Partner/husband educational status, household wealth index, media exposure, information about oral rehydration, and place of delivery were the positive while the number of living children were the negative predictors of healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea in top high under-five mortality countries. Besides, living in different countries compared to Guinea was also an associated factor for healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea. More than four in ten children didn't receive health care for childhood diarrhea in top high under-five mortality countries. Thus, to increase healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea, health managers and policymakers should develop strategies to improve the household wealth status for those with poor household wealth index. The decision-makers and program planners should also work on media exposure and increase access to education. Further research including the perceived severity of illness and ORS knowledge-related factors of healthcare utilization for childhood diarrhea should also be considered by other researchers.

To explore the molecular pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and identify potential therapeutic targets, we performed transcriptome sequencing of lung tissue from mice with hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension. Our Gene Ontology analysis revealed that "extracellular matrix organization" ranked high in the biological process category, and matrix metallopeptidases (MMPs) and other proteases also played important roles in it. Moreover, compared with those in the normoxia group, we confirmed that MMPs expression was upregulated in the hypoxia group, while the hub gene Timp1 was downregulated. Crocin, a natural MMP inhibitor, was found to reduce inflammation, decrease MMPs levels, increase Timp1 expression levels, and attenuate hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in mice. In addition, analysis of the cell distribution of MMPs and Timp1 in the human lung cell atlas using single-cell RNAseq datasets revealed that MMPs and Timp1 are mainly expressed in a population of fibroblasts. Moreover, in vitro experiments revealed that crocin significantly inhibited myofibroblast proliferation, migration, and extracellular matrix deposition. Furthermore, we demonstrated that crocin inhibited TGF-β1-induced fibroblast activation and regulated the pulmonary arterial fibroblast MMP2/TIMP1 balance by inhibiting the TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway. In summary, our results indicate that crocin attenuates hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in mice by inhibiting TGF-β1-induced myofibroblast activation.

At the end of some retinal surgeries, a gas bubble is placed in the eye. In surgeries for retinal detachment, this gas bubble helps to keep the tear(s) in the retina sealed up while the eye is healing and prevent the retina from re-detaching. In macular hole surgeries (a defect in the center part of the retina), the gas bubble helps to seal up this hole in the center part of the retina. The gas bubble (sulfur hexafluoride) will slowly disappear from the eye over the course of approximately 2 weeks.

In some cases, the gas bubble disappears more quickly than the surgeon would wish. Several eye drops are currently available which help to lower the eye pressure in conditions such as glaucoma where the eye pressure is unacceptably elevated and is causing or may cause vision loss. These drops have been shown to keep the eye pressure controlled after surgery with injection of a gas bubble in the eye. However, little is known about the effect of these drops on the duration of the gas bubble. The goal of this study is to see if these glaucoma eye drops have any effect on the amount of time the gas bubble remains in the eye.

After surgery with a gas bubble (sulfur hexafluoride) is completed, patients will be randomly assigned (like a flip of a coin) to receive a glaucoma drop (dorzolamide-timolol) or no glaucoma drop. These drops are currently available from pharmacies with a prescription and are not "experimental." However, the use of these drops in this protocol is not to treat glaucoma but represents an "off-label" use. Patients assigned to receive a glaucoma drop will be provided with the medication. All patients will receive the standard post-operative drops regardless of which group they are assigned to. Patients will be taken care of before and after the surgery like any other patient undergoing this procedure. The investigators expect that you will be enrolled in this study for 3 months.
DRUG: OnabotulinumtoxinA (BoNTA) is an injection into the bladder which blocks the presynaptic release of acetylcholine. BoNTA was approved for the treatment of OAB by the FDA in 2013.
INTRODUCTION: Aspirin and anti-P2Y12 are widely prescribed in cardiovascular patients, often in combination with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to limit the risk of upper gastrointestinal bleedings. The potential interaction between PPIs and antiplatelet agents has been widely discussed, but doubts remain as to whether PPIs may reduce the cardiovascular protection provided by aspirin, prasugrel, ticagrelor, and clopidogrel.
AREAS COVERED: Many pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) studies have confirmed the interaction, especially between PPIs and clopidogrel, but with uncertain consequences on clinical outcomes. Therefore, we aimed to summarize the evidence for the widespread combined use of oral antiplatelet drugs and PPIs, to outline the current evidence supporting or opposing drug-drug interaction, and to discuss the clinical implications of such interactions.
EXPERT OPINION: A large body of evidence describes the PK/PD interaction of antiplatelet drugs with PPIs and its potential role in increasing clinical cardiovascular adverse events, but no solid clinical data have confirmed these effects. In the light of the published studies, there seems to be no restriction on the choice of PPI with aspirin, prasugrel, and/or ticagrelor. The choice of a PPI with no (or minimal) interference with the hepatic cytochrome P450 2C19 is preferred in patients receiving clopidogrel.
<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide excellent characteristics such as an improvement in uniformity and holding power of waves and prevention of damage received by hair in a hair treating composition such as a hair curling agent.  <P>SOLUTION: Effects on the improvement in uniformity and holding properties of the waves and the reduction of damage to the hair are provided by formulating pure un-hydrolyzed keratin or hydrolyzed keratin with the hair treating composition such as the hair curling agent. In the keratin or hydrolyzed keratin, a disulfide moiety in cystine is converted into an S-sulfonated cysteine. Furthermore, the S-sulfonated cysteine is reacted with S-sulfonated cysteine produced from the cystine in hair keratin which is not completely returned in operation of a treatment with the curling agent to recover the disulfide bond. Thereby, the waves are uniformized and the holding properties are improved. The outside and inside of the hair are repaired to reduce hair damage received from a bleaching agent, an oxidation hair dye, etc., by combining a high-molecular keratin with a low-molecular keratin.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
Patients admitted to Tampere University Hospital for first acute alcoholic pancreatitis were included. The diagnostic criteria for acute pancreatitis were epigastric pain, serum amylase \> 3 x upper normal range, elevated serum CRP and signs of acute pancreatitis in imaging. Other etiologies were excluded. Alcohol consumption and dependency were detected. Serum and fecal markers of the endocrine and exocrine function and secretin stimulated MRCP were studied. The patients were followed median 38 (25 - 61) months for the recurrences and had a follow up visit at two years to investigate trends in the alcohol consumption.
With an ongoing transition towards the use of Light Emitting Diodes, more knowledge is needed on which light settings optimise sustainability parameters in pig production. We studied the effects of four light intensities on social, environmental and economic sustainability indicators, including ammonia emissions, space use, pen fouling, weight gain, carcass quality, perception of the stockkeeper, costs of the light system, and use of drinking water, electricity and medicines. Light treatments included a low (45 lux), medium (198 lux) and high (968 lux) uniform intensity, and a spatial gradient treatment ranging from 71 lux in the front to 330 lux in the back of each pen. The latter treatment aimed to improve the space use of functional areas. A total of 448 growing-finishing pigs were studied on a commercial farm using two consecutive batches of four rooms containing eight pens with seven pigs. Light intensity influenced some aspects of space use and pen fouling. For example, the proportion of pigs lying in the resting area was higher in the high and medium light intensity treatment than in the low intensity and gradient treatment. Moreover, the high-intensity treatment resulted in more fouling with faeces in the feeding area compared with the low-intensity and the gradient treatment. Ammonia emissions were higher in the gradient than in the low intensity treatment (not measured in medium and high intensity treatment). Furthermore, light intensity did not affect weight gain, carcass quality, water use and medicine use. The stockkeeper was content to work in all light conditions, but slightly preferred the medium intensity due to optimal visibility. Concerning economic performance, the costs of the light system and electricity use increased in the following order: low intensity, gradient, medium intensity, and high intensity. In conclusion, contrary to expectation the spatial gradient did not notably improve space use or reduce pen fouling, but rather increased ammonia emissions in comparison with uniform light. This is likely because the gradient could not be applied in an optimal way in the existing housing conditions. Among the other sustainability indicators, mainly electricity use and costs of the light system differed per treatment. These aspects can be improved by further optimising the number of light sources needed per pen to achieve the targeted intensities.
The invention relates to an oral pharmaceutical preparation of tadalafil, and application of the preparation on treating male erectile dysfunction. The oral pharmaceutical preparation is characterized in that the basic remedy is tadalafil or a salt thereof, wherein the specific dosage form of the preparation is an orally disintegrating tablet, a chewable tablet or an oral membrane preparation and other preparations capable of being released quickly in the oral cavity. Tadalafil is a slightly-soluble drug with relatively low bioavailability, so that the invalid dosage is relatively high, the drug can generate multiple adverse reactions, and the unreasonable prescription can cause visual impairment or visual loss. The research of the pharmaceutical preparation of tadalafil on increasing the bioavailability of the drug and reducing the adverse reactions is very important for wide application of tadalafil on treatment of male sexual dysfunction clinically. Secondly, through improvement on the compliance of the pharmaceutical preparation of tadalafil when a patient takes the drug, especially takes the drug in a non-swallowing manner in a water-free environment, the oral pharmaceutical preparation is a boon for a lot of ED (Erectile Dysfunction) patients. The oral pharmaceutical preparation of tadalafil disclosed by the invention is patient oriented, and produced through a large number of researches.

Major symbiotic organisms have evolved to establish beneficial relationships with hosts. However, understanding the interactions between symbionts and insect hosts, particularly for their roles in defense against pathogens, is still limited. In a previous study, we proposed that the fungus Metarhizium anisopliae can infect the brown planthopper Nilaparvata lugens, a harmful pest for rice crops. To expand on this, we investigated changes in N. lugens' intestinal commensal community after M. anisopliae infection and identified key gut microbiotas involved. Our results showed significant alterations in gut microbiota abundance and composition at different time points following infection with M. anisopliae. Notably, certain symbionts, like Acinetobacter baumannii, exhibited significant variations in response to the fungal infection. The decrease in these symbionts had a considerable impact on the insect host's survival. Interestingly, reintroducing A. baumannii enhanced the host's resistance to M. anisopliae, emphasizing its role in pathogen defense. Additionally, A. baumannii stimulated host immune responses, as evidenced by increased expression of immune genes after reintroduction. Overall, our findings highlight the significance of preserving a stable gut microbial community for the survival of insects. In specific conditions, the symbiotic microorganism A. baumannii can enhance the host's ability to resist entomopathogenic pathogens through immune regulation.
This is a prospective registry of patients presenting with acute dyspnea to the emergency department of the city hospital in Nuremberg during May 23th 2013 and October 31th 2013. To be included into the registry the patient has to express acute dyspnea. Minor patients are not included. The admission documents of the studied patients are accompanied by a questionnaire that has to be completed by the triage nurse and the attending physician. The questionnaire includes items like professional experience and subjective assessment of patient's prognosis. In addition the attending physician has to state if the evaluation of medical history was difficult, if previous medication is known and how likely the presence of heart failure as underlying condition is. Data of the questionnaire, the patient record and the follow up contacts are entered in a SPSS database. Finally, we measure the OPTIMIZE-HF score (Abraham et al. 2008) and the PRIDE mortality score (Baggish et al. 2007) in a retrospective manner in order to compare the subjective assessments with objective criteria.
Heart failure is a highly prevalent, complex disease associated with significant morbidity and cost. For example, Geisinger manages over 900 heart failure admissions per year, with each admission costing an estimated $10,000-$12,000. As payment models continue to shift from fee-for-service to value-based, significant investments are occurring in care team resources to help manage populations of patients with heart failure. These care team resources have demonstrated effectiveness. For example, internal Geisinger metrics indicate that interventions led by clinical pharmacists aimed at poorly controlled type II diabetics have resulted in a sustained median 1% (absolute) drop in hemoglobin hemoglobin a1C (glycated hemoglobin). In this new environment, intelligent deployment of limited resources is critical to drive quality and contain costs.

In heart failure, current risk prediction have demonstrated poor prognostic abilities and present a barrier to "precision delivery" of care team resources. Currently approaches are limited due to not fully utilizing rich, highly granular objective data such as imaging, laboratory values, and vital signs, and therefore are not optimized to accurately predict outcomes. The investigators have generated a machine learning model to predict both 1-year survival and heart failure hospitalization within 6 months of echocardiography. This model utilized 169 input variables including clinical data, imaging measures, and 18 care gap variables. Our results showed not only that the machine learning model had far superior accuracy to predict the morbidity endpoints compared to current approaches utilizing billing code data, but also that care gap variables were important for predicting 1-year survival. Moreover, the investigators showed that closing four of the care gap variables (flu vaccination, evidence-based beta blocker treatment, ACE (angiotensin-converting-enzyme) inhibitor/ARB (angiotensin receptor blockers) treatment, and control of diabetic a1C (i.e., values "in goal)) resulted in a predicted improvement in 1-year survival of \~1200 (out of \~11,000) patients. This study therefore aims to apply this machine learning approach to direct care team resources in a clinical setting to evaluate its impact on patient survival and healthcare utilization.
