The invention relates to the testing of humans or other animals, such as horses, cattle or dogs, for allergic reaction or hypersensitivity to penicillins. The tests can be used both to predict and to diagnose allergy. The invention comprises new penicilloyl-polylysine (PPL) preparations, new materials for use in minor determinant mixture (MDM) compositions and novel test methods employing such materials. The new PPL preparations comprise homogeneous, high purity, maximally coupled,  alpha -diastereoisomeric, penicilloyl conjugates of low molecular weight PPLs. The PPL materials of the invention have the molecular structure in accordance with the following generic formula: <IMAGE>   wherein: R is selected from the group consisting of H and penicilloyl groups or similar groups derived from cephaolosporins or other  beta -lactam antibiotics; and n is an integer of from 4 to 10, at least about 66% and up to 100% of the R groups are other than hydrogen. Solutions containing this PPL material are useful in skin testing for penicillin allergy or hypersensitivity alone, but preferably are utilized in a two-part test with MDM solutions containing the novel MDM materials of the invention. The new MDM materials are N-penicilloyl amines of an aliphatic amine or  alpha -aminoacid having the following molecular structure:   <IMAGE> wherein: R1=a side chain which defines the type of penicillin-e.g., where R1=   <IMAGE>  the new material is a derivative of benzylpenicillin; and R2 is an alkyl group of C2-C6 length, preferably ethyl or propyl, or an aminoacid residue as described herein. The tests are preferably carried out by applying solutions of the materials to the skin of the patient or other test animal and pricking or scratching the skin, or by injecting the materials intradermally, and then observing for wheal and flare reactions. The preferred test method comprises a two-solution test using a solution of the novel PPL preparations applied on or into one area of the patient's skin and a separate solution containing the new minor determinant material alone or as part of an MDM solution with other constituents applied on or into another area of the patient's skin.

INTRODUCTION: Acute pancreatitis (AP) following drug-induced hypertriglyceridemia is a rare clinical phenomenon. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized treatment for a variety of solid organ and hematological malignancies. Pembrolizumab is a programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitor that has shown promising responses in many advanced cancers. However, a constellation of immune-related adverse events has also been described. There are reports of pembrolizumab-induced hypertriglyceridemia, but AP as a result of this side effect remains an exceedingly rare clinical sequela.
CASE REPORT: We delineate a case of a patient with stage IVB non-small-cell lung cancer who developed progressive abdominal pain and nausea following administration of pembrolizumab for four months. Laboratory studies revealed increased serum lipase and triglyceride levels at 12,562 IU/L and 16,901 mg/dL, respectively. The diagnosis of AP was made based on the revised Atlanta classification criteria. After ruling out alternative causes, pembrolizumab-induced hypertriglyceridemia was considered the likely etiology of AP.
MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOME: The patient was transferred to the medical intensive care unit for close monitoring. Treatment was initiated with intravenous fluids, pain medications, and an insulin infusion. However, her hypertriglyceridemia levels remained persistently elevated, necessitating therapeutic apheresis. She recovered well with no complications after triglyceride apheresis.
DISCUSSION: AP following pembrolizumab-associated hypertriglyceridemia remains a rare clinicopathologic entity. Given the widespread clinical use of immune checkpoint inhibitors, knowledge of such rare adverse events is crucial. Evaluation of serum triglyceride levels before and after initiating pembrolizumab therapy may be mandated, especially in patients with metabolic comorbidities.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most common deadly tumors but still lacks specific biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment guidance. The COP9 signalosome (COPS) is an essential regulator of the ubiquitin conjugation pathway upregulated in various cancers. We evaluated the contributions of COPS subunits to HCC tumorigenesis and their utility for prognosis. We comprehensively evaluated the tumor expression pattern and tumorigenic functions of COPS subunits using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), The Human Protein Atlas and immunohistochemistry. Kaplan-Meier, Cox regression, ROC curve, and nomogram analyses were used to assess the predictive values of COPS subunits for clinical outcome. Expression levels of COPS subunits were significantly upregulated in HCC tissues, which predicted shorter overall survival (OS). Further, Cox regression analysis identified COPS5, COPS7B, and COPS9 as independent prognostic biomarkers for OS. High mutation rates were also found in COPS subunits. Functional network analysis indicated that COPS and neighboring genes regulate 'protein neddylation', 'protein deneddylation', and 'protein ubiquitination'. The COPS PPI included strong interactions with p53, CUL1/2/3/4, and JUN. Moreover, the correlations between COPS subunit expression levels and tumor immune cell infiltration rates were examined using TIMER, TISIDB, ssGSEA, and ESTIMATE packages. COPS subunits expression levels were positively correlated with specific tumor immune cell infiltration rates, immunoregulator expression levels, and microsatellite instability in HCC. Finally, knockout of COPS6 and COPS9 in HCC cells reduced while overexpression enhanced proliferation rate and metastasis capacity. Our study revealed that COPS potential biomarker for unfavorable HCC prognosis and indicators of immune infiltration, tumorigenicity, and metastasis.
Background:Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) is one of the common precancerous lesions among Chinese adults. To investigate the clinical predictive value of p16 hydroxymethylation diagnostic reagents in the early diagnosis of oral cancer, the investigators carried out the prospective multi-center double-blind cohort study.

Methods:265 patients with histologically confirmed mild or moderate OED were included in the present study. After the bisulfite modification and tet assistant bisulfite modification, MethyLight and Methylation-specific PCR (MSP) assays were used to analyze p16 methylation and status in these patients. Building three follow-up queue by p16-methylated, p16-hydroxymethylation and p16-unmethylated. The Statistical analysis used SPSS16.0. All P-values were two-sided. P\<0.05 was considered to test for statistical significance difference.

The active ingredient of ProAir Digihaler inhalation powder is albuterol sulfate, a racemic salt of albuterol. Albuterol sulfate is a beta2-adrenergic agonist. It has the chemical name α1-[(tert-butylamino) methyl]-4-hydroxy-m-xylene-α,α'-diol sulfate (2:1) (salt), and the following chemical structure:

The molecular weight of albuterol sulfate is 576.7, and the empirical formula is (C13H21NO3)2•H2SO4. Albuterol sulfate is a white to off-white crystalline powder. It is soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol. Albuterol sulfate is the official U.S. Adopted Name in the United States, and salbutamol sulfate is the recommended World Health Organization international nonproprietary name.

ProAir Digihaler is inhalation-driven, multi-dose inhalation powder (dry powder inhaler) for oral inhalation only. It contains a formulation blend of albuterol sulfate with alpha-lactose monohydrate. Each actuation provides a metered dose of 2.6 mg of the formulation containing 117 mcg of albuterol sulfate (equivalent to 97 mcg of albuterol base) and lactose from the device reservoir. Under standardized in vitro test conditions with fixed flow rates ranging from 58 to 71 L/min, and with a total air volume of 2 L, ProAir Digihaler inhaler delivers 108 mcg of albuterol sulfate (equivalent to 90 mcg of albuterol base) with lactose from the mouthpiece. The actual amount of drug delivered to the lung will depend on patient factors, such as inspiratory flow profile. In a study that investigated the peak inspiratory flow rate (PIFR) in asthma (n=27, ages 12 to 17 years old and n=50, ages 18 to 45 years old) and COPD (n=50, over 50 years old) patients, the mean PIFR achieved by subjects was >60 L/min (range = 31 to 110 L/min.), indicating that patients would be able to achieve the required inspiratory flow to operate the MDPI device correctly. The inhaler is provided for 200 or 30 actuations (inhalations).

ProAir Digihaler contains a QR code on the electronic module which is built-in to the top of the inhaler and automatically detects, records and stores data on inhaler events, including peak inspiratory flow rate (L/min). ProAir Digihaler may pair with and transmit data to the mobile App where inhaler events are categorized.

Sulfonylurea tablets (glibenclamide, other forms of sulfonylureas) were administered at the time of intervention (before November 1, 2006). The patients have been prospectively followed up. Sulfonylurea dose, insulin requirement, death of all causes, episodes of severe hypoglycemia, ketoacidosis, development of discoloured teeth and diarrhea have been recorded. For a small number of subjects, increment of insulin and C-peptide after either an oral or intravenous glucose load and/or response to glucagon have been tested.
BACKGROUND: Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is associated with high rates of recurrence and distant metastatic progression. Current guidelines for surveillance imaging are not evidence based. Better characterization of the pattern of distant metastatic spread will better inform surveillance and facilitate earlier detection of metastases.
OBJECTIVES: This retrospective study aimed to assess potential relationships between primary tumour site and site of initial distant metastasis, time to distant metastasis, overall survival (OS) and MCC-specific death (MSD).
METHODS: Patients with local or regional (Stage I-III) disease who were treated with curative intent and progressed to Stage IV were included in this study (n = 151). Fisher's exact test was used to assess differences in patterns of initial distant metastases based on primary tumour site. Time to initial distant metastasis was calculated from date of MCC diagnosis. OS and MSD were calculated from date of initial distant metastasis to date of death from any or MCC-related causes, respectively.
RESULTS: Of 151 patients included in analysis, 89 (58.9%) had a single initial distant metastatic site, and 62 (41.1%) had multiple sites. Patients with upper limb primary tumours were significantly less likely to develop distant lymph node or liver metastases (p = 0.02 and 0.04, respectively). Median time to distant metastasis was 11 months (IQR 6.7-17.9 months). Median OS was 15.3 months, and was shorter for patients with liver (7.0 months, p = 0.0004) or bone metastases (8.9 months, p < 0.0001). Using skin/soft tissue metastasis as a reference group, patients with multiple metastatic sites had significantly higher hazards of MSD (HR = 3.46 univariate, 3.77 multivariate analysis). Time to distant metastasis, OS and MSD did not differ by viral status.
CONCLUSION: Sites of initial distant metastasis are related to primary tumour sites and survival outcomes. Because patients often have multiple initial metastases, full-body cross-sectional rather than region-specific imaging may facilitate earlier detection of metastatic disease.
The patient was placed in the lateral decubitus position. The procedure involved a curvilinear thoracic incision overlying the center of the fractured segments. The intercostal muscles were dissected off the rib on its superior aspect away from the fracture site, and the fracture was then reduced. The investigators then chose the most suitable Stracos, which is to be found in two available sizes, 6 or 9 claws, according to the length of the fracture. The clip chosen was molded according to the shape of the corresponding rib and the claws were crimped using special pliers on and around the fractured rib.The investigators treated only one rib out of two with Stracos, and as for displaced or comminuted fractures, the adjacent rib was wrapped using vicryl suture on the osteosynthesis rib.
Five independent transgenic founder lines were created which have all developed cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. The line with the most severe phenotype was analyzed in detail. Transgenic cardiac 11β3HSD2 mRNA expression is increased 4,000 fold over non-transgenic mice and the expressed enzyme was found to possess catalytic activity. At five months of age transgenic mice had developed severe myocardial hypertrophy in the absence of an increase in blood pressure. Interstitial fibrosis in the left ventricle of transgenic mice was revealed by picrosirius red staining. The hearts of the mice were severely dilated and cardiomyocyte size was increased.

Of the 1169 adult cancer patients treated with AKYNZEO capsules in clinical studies, 18% were aged 65 and over, while 2% were aged 75 years and over. The nature and frequency of adverse reactions were similar in elderly and younger patients. Exploratory analyses of the impact of age on efficacy were performed in the two trials that compared AKYNZEO to palonosetron [see Clinical Studies (14)]. In Study 1 in patients treated with cisplatin chemotherapy, among the patients less than age 65 years, 115 were treated with AKYNZEO and 116 were treated with palonosetron alone. Among the patients 65 years or older, 20 were treated with AKYNZEO and 20 were treated with palonosetron alone. The difference in Complete Response (CR) rates between AKYNZEO and palonosetron alone was similar between the two age groups in both the acute and delayed phases. In Study 2 in patients treated with anthracyclines plus cyclophosphamide chemotherapy, among the patients less than age 65 years, 608 were treated with AKYNZEO and 602 were treated with palonosetron alone. Among the patients 65 years or older, 116 were treated with AKYNZEO and 123 were treated with palonosetron alone. The difference in CR rates between AKYNZEO and palonosetron alone (4% in <65 years and 2% in >65 years) was similar between the two age groups in the acute phase. In the delayed phase, the difference in CR rates between AKYNZEO and palonosetron alone (9% in <65 years and 1% in ≥ 65 years) was numerically higher in patients <65 years. This difference between age groups in the delayed phase of Study 2 may be explained, in part, by higher CR in the delayed phase associated with palonosetron alone in the older age group (81%) relative to the younger patients treated with palonosetron alone (67%).

Of the 239 adult cancer patients treated with AKYNZEO for injection in clinical studies, 36% were aged 65 and over, while 4% were aged 75 years and over. The nature and frequency of adverse reactions were similar in elderly and younger patients.

In general, use caution when dosing elderly patients as they have a greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal or cardiac function and concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
Hereditary C1q deficiency (C1QDef) is a rare monogenic disorder leading to defective complement pathway activation and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-like manifestations. The link between impairment of the complement cascade and autoimmunity remains incompletely understood. Here, we assessed type 1 interferon pathway activation in patients with C1QDef. Twelve patients with genetically confirmed C1QDef were recruited through an international collaboration. Clinical, biological and radiological data were collected retrospectively. The expression of a standardized panel of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) in peripheral blood was measured, and the level of interferon alpha (IFNα) protein in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) determined using SIMOA technology. Central nervous system (encompassing basal ganglia calcification, encephalitis, vasculitis, chronic pachymeningitis), mucocutaneous and renal involvement were present, respectively, in 10, 11 and 2 of 12 patients, and severe infections recorded in 2/12 patients. Elevated ISG expression was observed in all patients tested (n = 10/10), and serum and CSF IFNα elevated in 2/2 patients. Three patients were treated with Janus-kinase inhibitors (JAKi), with variable outcome; one displaying an apparently favourable response in respect of cutaneous and neurological features, and two others experiencing persistent disease despite JAKi therapy. To our knowledge, we report the largest original series of genetically confirmed C1QDef yet described. Additionally, we present a review of all previously described genetically confirmed cases of C1QDef. Overall, individuals with C1QDef demonstrate many characteristics of recognized monogenic interferonopathies: particularly, cutaneous involvement (malar rash, acral vasculitic/papular rash, chilblains), SLE-like disease, basal ganglia calcification, increased expression of ISGs in peripheral blood, and elevated levels of CSF IFNα.
