Cpds. of the 19-nor-5alpha,9beta,10alpha-oestrane series are anabolic agents and sedatives of the CNS. The compounds of the 19-nor-5alpha,9beta,10alpha-pregnane series are oral progestational agents useful in the control of fertility. They also reduce cholesterol level in the blood.
Anemia has occurred in NSAID-treated patients. This may be due to occult or gross blood loss, fluid retention, or an incompletely described effect upon erythropoiesis. If a patient treated with SPRIX has any signs or symptoms of anemia, monitor hemoglobin or hematocrit. Do not use SPRIX in patients for whom hemostasis is critical [see Contraindications (4), Drug Interactions (7)].

NSAIDs, including SPRIX, may increase the risk of bleeding events. Co-morbid conditions such as coagulation disorders or concomitant use of warfarin, other anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin), serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) may increase this risk. Monitor these patients for signs of bleeding [see Drug Interactions (7)].

The concurrent use of ketorolac and therapy that affects hemostasis, including prophylactic low dose heparin (2500 to 5000 units q12h), warfarin and dextrans, has not been studied extensively, but may also be associated with an increased risk of bleeding. Until data from such studies are available, carefully weigh the benefits against the risks and use such concomitant therapy in these patients only with extreme caution. Monitor patients receiving therapy that affects hemostasis closely.

In clinical trials, serious adverse events related to bleeding were more common in patients treated with SPRIX than placebo. In clinical trials and in postmarketing experience with ketorolac IV and IM dosing, postoperative hematomas and other signs of wound bleeding have been reported in association with peri-operative use. Therefore, use SPRIX with caution in the postoperative setting when hemostasis is critical.
OBJECTIVE: The preoperative inclination angle of mandibular incisors was crucial for surgical and postoperative stability while the effect of proclined mandibular incisors on skeletal stability has not been investigated. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of differences in presurgical mandibular incisor inclination on skeletal stability after orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion.
METHODS: A retrospective cohort study of 80 consecutive patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion who underwent bimaxillary orthognathic surgery was conducted. According to incisor mandibular plane angle (IMPA), patients were divided into 3 groups: retroclined inclination (IMPA < 87°), normal inclination (87° ≤ IMPA < 93°) and proclined inclination (IMPA ≥ 93°). Preoperative characteristics, surgical changes and postoperative stability were compared based on lateral cephalograms obtained 1 week before surgery (T0), 1 week after surgery (T1), and at 6 to 12 months postoperatively (T2).
RESULTS: The mandible demonstrated a forward and upward relapse in all three groups. No significant differences in skeletal relapse were observed in the 3 groups of patients. However, the proclined inclination group showed a negative overbite tendency postoperatively compared with the other two groups and a clinically significant mandibular relapse pattern. Proclined IMPA both pre- and postoperatively was correlated with mandibular relapse.
CONCLUSION: Sufficient presurgical mandibular incisor decompensation was of crucial importance for the maintenance of skeletal stability in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion who subsequently underwent orthognathic surgery.
OBJECTIVE: Pelvic osteotomies relieve tension of the bladder and fascial closures during bladder exstrophy repair. Multiple techniques for postoperative immobilization of the pelvis and lower extremities have been described. The primary aim of this study was to assess differences in short and long-term changes in pubic rami diastasis when comparing Bryant traction to spica cast immobilization. Secondary aims included a comparison of length of stay, skin-related complications, and urologic outcomes.
METHODS: We performed a single-institutional retrospective review of bladder exstrophy patients younger than 18 months of age who underwent posterior pelvic osteotomy and bladder exstrophy closure from April 2005 to April 2020. Short-term and long-term pubic rami diastasis were defined as postoperative measurements ≤6 months and ≥12 months, respectively. Secondary outcomes included length of stay, pressure ulcer, skin rash/abrasion, urethrocutaneous fistula, and bladder or fascial dehiscence rates. Multivariable logistic regression assessed for an association between immobilization type and degree of diastasis while controlling for age at the time of diastasis measurement and sex.
RESULTS: Fifteen patients underwent Bryant traction and 36 patients underwent spica cast immobilization. In both the short-term and long-term, there was a greater reduction in pubic diastasis in the spica cast group ( P = 0.002 and P = 0.05, respectively). After adjustments, there were higher odds of having a greater reduction in pubic rami diastasis in both the short-term (odds ratio: 2.71, 95% CI: 1.52-4.86, P = 0.001) and long-term (odds ratio: 2.41, 95% CI: 1.00-5.80, P = 0.05). Length of stay was significantly higher in Bryant's traction group (26 vs 19 d, P < 0.001). Rates of pressure ulcers were higher in the Bryant traction group (26.7% vs 0%, P = 0.005). Rates of skin rash/abrasions, urethrocutaneous fistula, and bladder/fascial dehiscence did not differ.
CONCLUSIONS: Spica cast immobilization is a safe and effective immobilization method. Compared with Bryant traction, spica cast immobilization was associated with a greater reduction in postoperative pubic diastasis both short and long-term, along with a shorter length of hospitalization and reduced rate of pressure ulcers.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III-therapeutic study.
Impaired renal function results in a decreased rate and extent of excretion of tramadol and its active metabolite, M1. In patients with creatinine clearances of less than 30 mL/min, dosing reduction is recommended [see Error! Hyperlink reference not valid.] . Metabolism of tramadol and M1 is reduced in patients with severe hepatic impairment based on a study in patients with advanced cirrhosis of the liver. In patients with severe hepatic impairment, dosing reduction is recommended [see Error! Hyperlink reference not valid.] . 

With the prolonged half-life in these conditions, achievement of steady-state is delayed, so that it may take several days for elevated plasma concentrations to develop.
Intervention facilities will receive targeted and enhanced support in line with the continuous quality improvement (CQI) approach, over a period of approximately 12 months, to promote implementation of the national guidelines and sustained provision of routine testing for HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B at least once during pregnancy. District-level CQI coaches will provide training in CQI methods to two facility representatives from each of the 20 intervention arm facilities. The CQI coaches will then work with these facility-level 'CQI advocates' to implement a process of quality improvement to identify and address barriers to antenatal testing.
Oxytocin is a naturally occurring hormone, commonly known for its role in social approach, bonding, and trust. The present study is designed to investigate whether and how oxytocin may affect communication outcomes--specifically, by influencing trust of people presenting opinions that participants disagree with.

Healthy adult volunteers will intranasally administer 24 IU of oxytocin at one visit and placebo (saline) solution at another visit. Participants will then view photos of speakers presenting opinions on various socio-political issues which the participants disagree with. Participants will complete questions about their psychological reactions (e.g., anger, receptiveness) to the opinions presented. After reporting on their receptiveness to the opposing opinions, participants will begin the attentional tasks. In the attentional tasks, participants will be seated in front of a computer while an eyetracker records their eye movements and attentional gaze. First, participants will view two images presented simultaneously at either ends of the computer screen; each image pair will depict a a) baby and a food, b) baby and an attractive opposite sex target, or c) food and an attractive opposite sex target. Next, participants will view a series of images exclusively depicting one attractive opposite-sex target at a time; attentional bias away from faces and towards bodies (indicative of short-term mating interest; Bolmont, Cacioppo, \& Cacioppo, 2014) will be tracked. After each photograph has been viewed for a fixed duration, the participant will answer a question assessing their likelihood of engaging in a one-night stand with the person pictured. After this second part of the task, we will gather saliva samples via passive drool collection. These samples will be later assayed for testosterone. Next participants will complete a measure of visual attention in which they will identify target stimuli (e.g. letters) on a computer screen via keyboard press.
Participants will receive up to 5 coaching sessions by a physical or occupational therapist. The intervention will focus on facilitating physical activity engagement and development of specific and measurable goals. The recommended program will be individualized to each participant but will primarily focus on increasing general physical activity (e.g. steps per day) as well as engagement in moderate intensity aerobic exercise a minimum of three times per week. At the follow up sessions the therapist will review progress with the current exercise plan and progress and discuss barriers and facilitators for exercise engagement. Participants will have the option to use a Fitbit or other device to monitor their heart rate and physical activity during the course of the intervention period.
Women randomized to attention control will receive the same attention as women randomized to exercise intervention, i.e., weekly phone calls for 6 months. Each call is about 15 min. Women in the attention control will receive information on ovarian cancer health education topics.
Neurolysis of peripheral nerves in the back of the head and/or neck. Traditional neck-specific exercise program including five individual treatments sessions within 3 months plus home program over 9 months.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine dose parameters for resistance exercise associated with improvements in pain and physical function in knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA) and whether these improvements were related to adherence.
METHODS: We searched six databases, from inception to January 28, 2023, for randomized controlled trials comparing land-based, resistance exercise-only interventions with no intervention, or any other intervention. There were four subgroups of intervention duration: 0 to <3 months, 3 to 6 months, >6 to <12 months, ≥12 months. The between-group effect was calculated for immediate postintervention pain and physical function (activities of daily living [ADL] and sports/recreation [SPORT]).
RESULTS: For both knee and hip, data from 280 studies showed moderate benefit for pain, physical function ADL, and physical function SPORT in favor of interventions 3 to 6 months. For the knee, there was also a moderate benefit for physical function ADL in favor of interventions >6 to <12 months. From 151 knee and hip studies that provided total exercise volume data (frequency, time, duration), there was no association between volume with the effect size for pain and physical function. A total of 74 studies (69 knee, 5 hip) reported usable adherence data. There was no association between adherence with the effect size for pain and physical function.
CONCLUSION: In knee and hip OA, resistance exercise interventions 3 to 6 months (and for the knee >6 to <12 months) duration improve pain and physical function. Improvements do not depend on exercise volume or adherence, suggesting exercise does not require rigid adherence to a specific dose.

Sarcopenia, a condition characterized by muscle mass decline, is one of the leading health problems in the elderly. This study determined the rate of sarcopenia according to criteria by Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) and related factors in elderly people. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in 632 people aged 60 years or over in Ho Chi Minh City. Data were collected through a predefined questionnaire and direct measurement. Sarcopenia was identified based on the Inbody 770 machine and AWGS criteria. The prevalence of sarcopenia was 32.0%. Participants with advanced age, low education, unemployment, low level of family economics and frailty were more likely to have sarcopenia. Among these, frailty had the highest impact on sarcopenia, with significantly higher odds of having sarcopenia found in participants with pre-frailty (OR = 4.80, 95% CI 2.75-8.38, p < 0.001) and frailty (OR = 21.16, 95% CI 8.96-49.97, p < 0.001). In contrast, BMI was inversely associated with sarcopenia. Sarcopenia is prevalent in the Vietnamese elderly. Apart from social demographic characteristics including age, education, employment and family economic status, frailty appeared to be an important risk factor. Early screening, referral, and treatment of sarcopenia among the elderly having a high risk of sarcopenia are recommended.
BACKGROUND: In light of several epidemiological studies, the etiology of recurrent pregnancy loss is complex. One of the most frequent causes of women experiencing inexplicable recurrent pregnancy loss is maternal thrombophilia. Hence, the association between genetic polymorphisms causing thrombophilia and recurrent pregnancy loss needs to be explored.
AIM: Is to study the relation of polymorphisms affecting folate pathway mainly, 5-Methytetrahydrofolate-Homocysteine Methyltransferase (MTR A2756G) and 5-Methytetrahydrofolate-Homocysteine MethyltransferaseReductase (MTRR A66G) with recurrent pregnancy loss.
METHODS: It is a case-control study. Four hundred participants were enrolled. Two hundred participants with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (case group) and two hundred healthy fertile participants (control group). All participants were screened for (MTR A2756G) and (MTRR A66G). DNA was extracted using salting out method followed by genotyping via Real-time PCR.
RESULTS: Mutant homozygous genotype (GG) in MTRR A66G was statistically significantly among RPL group in comparison to controls. (GG vs. AA) had odds ratio and confidence interval of 1.22(1.12-2.23), P = 0.012. (GG) increased the liability 1.2 folds for recurrent pregnancy loss. Mutant homozygous genotype (GG) in MTR A2756G was not correlated with the risk of recurrent pregnancy loss. (GG vs.AA) = (1.13(0.56-2.29)), P = 0.7 CONCLUSION: MTRR A66G increases susceptibly for recurrent pregnancy loss among Egyptian women.
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition and health-aid food including pollen of Quercus acutissima Carr. as an active ingredient for preventing or treating thrombosis. Particularly, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition and health-aid food including ethanol extract of pollen of Quercus acutissima Carr., ethyl acetate fraction thereof, butanol fraction thereof, residue in water after fractionation with an organic solvent, or a mixture thereof, as an active ingredient for preventing, treating/alleviating thrombosis through inhibition of blood coagulation and inhibition of platelet aggregation. The extract of pollen of Quercus acutissima Carr. as an active ingredient of the pharmaceutical composition and health-aid food for preventing or treating thrombosis inhibits thrombogenesis-related enzymes and blood coagulation factors and also inhibits platelet aggregation functioning to initiate thrombogenesis, thereby providing strong anti-thrombotic activity. In addition, the extract of pollen of Quercus acutissima Carr. shows no hemolysis to human red blood cells, has excellent heat stability and causes no loss of the effect of inhibiting blood coagulation factors and thrombogenesis-related enzymes, and thus is expected to be used to prevent and treat thrombosis, such as ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke, by improving blood circulation, even under an acidic condition of pH 2 and in the plasma. The active ingredient can be processed into various shapes, such as extract, powder, pills and tablets, and prepared into forms that can be administered at all times. Therefore, the present invention is useful in the field of pharmaceutical and food industries.

INTRODUCTION: The role of robotic surgery in the nonelective setting remains poorly defined. Accessibility, patient acuity, and high turn-over may limit its applicability and utilization. The goal is to characterize the role of robotic cholecystectomy (CCY) in a busy acute care surgery (ACS) practice at a quaternary medical center, and compare surgical outcomes and resource utilization between robotic and laparoscopic CCY.
METHODS: Adult patients who underwent robotic (Da Vinci Xi) or laparoscopic CCY between 01/2021-12/2022 by an ACS attending within 1 week of admission were included. Primary outcomes included time from admission to surgery, off hour (weekend and 6p-6a) cases, operation time, and hospital costs, to reflect "feasibility" of robotic compared to laparoscopic CCY. Secondary outcomes encompassed surgery-related outcomes and complications.
RESULTS: The proportion of robotic CCY increased from 5% to 32% within 2 years. In total 361 laparoscopic and 89 robotic CCY were performed. Demographics and gallbladder disease severity were similar. Feasibility measures-operation time, case start time, time from admission to surgery, proportion of off-hour cases, and cost-were comparable between robotic and laparoscopic CCY. There were no differences in surgical complications, common bile duct injury, readmission, or mortality. Conversion to open surgery occurred more often in laparoscopic cases (5% vs 0%, P = .02, OR = 1.05).
DISCUSSION: Robotic CCY is associated with fewer open conversions and otherwise similar outcomes compared to laparoscopic CCY in the non-elective setting. Incorporation of robotic CCY in a busy ACS practice model is feasible with available resources.
The Sugar Challenge Study is a real-world, longitudinal study aimed at understanding the impact of lifestyle (i.e. food choices, physical activity and sleep patterns), genetics and personalized lifestyle recommendations on blood glucose levels, blood pressure, immune system status, stress hormone levels and microbiome composition. The purpose of this 10-day observational study was to primarily elucidate the impact of food choices, physical activity, and sleep patterns on an individual's blood glucose. In addition, we probed if continuous and personalized feedback to participants would improve glycemic control acutely through better decision making. Multiple investigations may be performed over an indefinite period of time to improve the understanding of these interconnected relationships. For example, we will perform studies to understand an individual's blood glucose response to an oral glucose load or mixed meal. We will also perform studies to determine the phenotype (clinical, metabolic, or immunologic) associated with a particular genotype. The data collected will be analyzed using proprietary machine learning methods.
When applicable (conscious patient and/or family or legally authorized representative is present) the study will be introduced to the patient and relevant parties prior to the research team approaching the patient. While head trauma frequently results in impaired cognition and/or consciousness, and due to the urgency of these circumstances patients are often not accompanied by kin, whenever appropriate, the purpose of the research and the procedure will be explained in detail with all questions answered to the patient's and/or representative's satisfaction. Because patients who sustain head trauma injuries typically remain within the hospital for multiple days for monitoring and care, each participant may undergo multiple CT scans over the course of his or her hospitalization, affording the opportunity to one to numerous measurements from each patient during his or her hospital stay.

Within 30 minutes following each CT scan, the study team will approach the patient to scan the patient's cranium with the InfraScanner 2000™ (Image A). The procedure will entail placing 8 plastic light guides upon the patient's scalp. The study team member will use the device to sequentially emit light through each of the 8 light guides so that the light is incident upon scalp (Image B). The device is engineered such that the light emitter and receiver are spaced \~4cm apart, allowing the light's intensity to be measured between adjacent light guides (Image C). This entire procedure, including greeting the patient, placing the light guides, gathering the data, and removing the light guides should take \~10 minutes each time. The number of CT scans the patient receives determines the number of potential data collections. The patient will be approached by the study team following each CT scan to be scanned with the InfraScanner 2000™ (20). The patient and/or representative may refuse a scan during any encounter, and as such, the scan will not be done. For each patient scanned with the InfraScanner 2000™ they will be de-identified with a subject number, with age, sex, gender, skin color, hair color, hair thickness, mechanism of injury, Glasgow Coma Scale score, and mean time elapsed between CT scan and near-infrared measurement. These data will be stored in de-identified form on Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) and/or Microsoft Excel 2016 on a secured DHTS server (S:\\NSU_IRB\\Pro00087011).

The collection period for each research subject concludes 30-days following his or her initial measurement with the InfraScanner 2000™, patient discharge, or patient death.
