This Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel group, stratified, multi-center study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of FlutiForm (250/10ug) after twice daily dosing over 12 weeks delivered by SKP HFA pMDI compared with Fluticasone propionate (250ug of twice daily) delivered by SKP HFA pMDI and Flovent® Fluticasone 250ug HFA pMDI in adolescent and adult patients with moderate to severe asthma. Only steroid-requiring patients (inhaled steroid regimen stable for at least 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit at a dose not greater than 500ug/day Fluticasone propionate or equivalent) will be eligible. All patients will undergo a Run-In Period of 14 ± 3 days during which they will receive asthma maintenance therapy using Fluticasone HFA pMDI (Flovent® HFA 50 ug/actuation: 100µg/day (one inhalation twice daily) if they were using less than or equal to 250mg/day Fluticasone propionate or equivalent inhaled steroid, or 200ug/day (two inhalations twice daily) if they were using greater than 250ug/day Fluticasone propionate or equivalent inhaled steroid prior to the Screening Visit.). The use of rescue Salbutamol (Albuterol) pMDI will be permitted for all patients as needed for the control of worsening asthma symptoms during the Run-In Period. At the Baseline Visit (Week 0) following the Run-In period, eligible patients will be randomized to the treatment groups. Treatment assignment will be stratified according to their Baseline FEV1 % predicted (40-60% or \>60-80%).Study drug will be administered twice daily over a 12-week period. Patient visits will occur at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12 during which assessments (including serial PFTs up to 4 hours) will be made. In a subset of at least 66 patients (22 patients per treatment group) from selected centers, post-dose 12-hour serial PFTs will be performed at Baseline, Weeks 2 and 12. During the Treatment Period, patients may only take their blinded study medication; all other asthma medications will be withheld for the duration of the Treatment Period. However, the use of rescue Salbutamol (Albuterol) pMDI will be permitted in all patients as needed during the Treatment Period for the control of worsening asthma symptoms.
We analysed the diversity of the fungal and bacterial in patients with Ulcerative Colitis (UC). We take 2 pieces of biopsies in the sigmoid colon mucosa inflammation area during the colonoscopy and then perform gene sequencing.
Sepsis, an extreme host response to systemic infection, remains one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Platelets, which are integral to both thrombosis and inflammation, play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. Excessive platelet activation and aggregation significantly increase the risk of thrombosis, thereby elevating mortality in septic patients. However, the etiology and treatment of this condition have not been comprehensively studied. This study identifies pinocembrin, a natural flavonoid compound derived from propolis, as a potential therapeutic agent for mitigating platelet activation and treating sepsis. In vivo, pinocembrin effectively inhibited FeCl3-induced carotid arterial occlusive thrombus formation and collagen/epinephrine-induced pulmonary thromboembolism in mouse models. In vitro, pinocembrin treatment suppressed multiple facets of platelet activation, including aggregation, secretion, and αIIbβ3-mediated signaling events. Mechanistically, pinocembrin repressed platelet functions by inhibiting Src/Syk/PLCγ2/MAPK signaling pathway. Using cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) mouse model to simulate human sepsis, pinocembrin reduced inflammatory cytokine release and septic thrombosis, thereby improving the survival rate of septic mice. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced model further substantiated these results. Overall, the inhibition of platelet activity by pinocembrin demonstrates significant therapeutic potential for managing life-threatening septic thrombosis.
TMC435 150 mg q.d. for 12 days on Days 1 to 12, coadministered with a single 2-mg dose of tacrolimus on Day 7. After a wash out period of at least 10 days, participants receive a single 2-mg dose of tacrolimus.
Mutations in genes encoding chromatin modifiers are enriched among mutations causing intellectual disability. The continuing development of the brain postnatally, coupled with the inherent reversibility of chromatin modifications, may afford an opportunity for therapeutic intervention following a genetic diagnosis. Development of treatments requires an understanding of protein function and models of the disease. Here, we provide a mouse model of Say-Barber-Biesecker-Young-Simpson syndrome (SBBYSS) (OMIM 603736) and demonstrate proof-of-principle efficacy of postnatal treatment. SBBYSS results from heterozygous mutations in the KAT6B (MYST4/MORF/QFK) gene and is characterized by intellectual disability and autism-like behaviors. Using human cells carrying SBBYSS-specific KAT6B mutations and Kat6b heterozygous mice (Kat6b+/-), we showed that KAT6B deficiency caused a reduction in histone H3 lysine 9 acetylation. Kat6b+/- mice displayed learning, memory, and social deficits, mirroring SBBYSS individuals. Treatment with a histone deacetylase inhibitor, valproic acid, or an acetyl donor, acetyl-carnitine (ALCAR), elevated histone acetylation levels in the human cells with SBBYSS mutations and in brain and blood cells of Kat6b+/- mice and partially reversed gene expression changes in Kat6b+/- cortical neurons. Both compounds improved sociability in Kat6b+/- mice, and ALCAR treatment restored learning and memory. These data suggest that a subset of SBBYSS individuals may benefit from postnatal therapeutic interventions.

BACKGROUND: Prenatally diagnosed hepatic hilar cysts are a challenging finding for the clinician. They can either be a sign of cystic biliary atresia (BA) or a choledochal cyst (CC), two diagnoses with different postnatal management and prognosis. Based on a case report of four patients, we aim to propose a management algorithm for prenatally diagnosed "hepatic hilar cysts".
CASE PRESENTATION: A hepatic hilar cyst, ranging from 5 to 25 mm, was detected prenatally in all four girls confirmed postnatally along with the presence of a gallbladder. Stool color was normal until two weeks of life at which time the stool color became lighter, and the patients developed cholestasis. All were operated before seven weeks of life: Case 1 had a CC with patent but irregular intrahepatic bile ducts at intraoperative cholangiogram, and no communication with the duodenum. A Roux-en-Y bilioenteric anastomosis was performed. The cyst showed complete epithelial lining loss, and liver pathology showed BA features. Case 2 had the final diagnosis of cystic BA with patent but abnormal intrahepatic bile ducts. She underwent two operations: the first operation at four weeks as described for case 1, since intraoperative findings were similar, as was histology. As cholestasis increased postoperatively, she underwent a Kasai hepato-porto-enterostomy six weeks later, where distinct BA findings were found with complete scarring of the hilar plate. Case 3 had a cystic BA with the cyst located within the common bile duct and atretic bile ducts proximal to the porta hepatis. It exhibited no communication with the liver or duodenum. A Kasai operation was performed, with histology showing complete epithelial loss within the cyst wall and scarring of the hilar plate. Case 4 had a cystic BA presenting a completely obliterated hepatic duct with the cyst lying within the common bile duct. A Kasai procedure was performed. Histology showed a common bile duct with a residual lumen of 0.1 mm.
CONCLUSIONS: The spectrum of disease from CC to BA in the setting of a prenatally discovered hepatic hilar cyst is emphasized. Even if cholangiogram differentiates most patients with BA from those with CC, caution is advised for transitional types.
PURPOSE: The mechanisms that control inflammation in scrub typhus are not fully elucidated. The Notch pathways are important regulators of inflammation and infection, but have not been investigated in scrub typhus.
METHODS: Plasma levels of the canonical Notch ligand Delta-like protein 1 (DLL1) were measured by enzyme immunoassay and RNA expression of the Notch receptors (NOTCH1, NOTCH2 and NOTCH4) in whole blood was analyzed by real-time PCR in patients with scrub typhus (n = 129), in patients with similar febrile illness without O. tsutsugamushi infection (n = 31) and in healthy controls (n = 31); all from the same area of South India.
RESULTS: Our main results were: (i) plasma DLL1 was markedly increased in scrub typhus patients at hospital admission with a significant decrease during recovery. (ii) RNA expression of NOTCH4 was decreased at admission in whole blood. (iii) A similar pattern for DLL1 and NOTCH4 was seen in febrile disease controls. (iv) Admission DLL1 in plasma was associated with disease severity and short-term survival. (vi) Regulation of Notch pathways in O. tsutsugamushi-infected monocytes as evaluated by public repository data revealed enhanced canonical Notch activation with upregulation of DLL1 and downregulation of NOTCH4.
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that scrub typhus patients are characterized by enhanced canonical Notch activation. Elevated plasma levels of DLL1 were associated with organ dysfunction and poor outcomes in these patients.
The invention belongs to the field of pharmacology and pharmaceutics, and relates to a propofol composition used for injection, a preparing method thereof and uses of the propofol composition. A product of the propofol composition is good in fluidity and free of wall hanging, has a single-phase, transparent, clear and bright appearance, can be subjected to clarity detection, and is free of preparation layering phenomena after the product is repeatedly frozen and thawed. In a process of forming a propofol fat emulsion system when the product encounters water, homogenization treatment is not needed, and spontaneous emulsification can occur only by slight oscillation. During clinical using, the product can spontaneously emulsify to form a fat emulsion system meeting injection requirements after the product is diluted with normal saline or a glucose solution, and other aqueous solutions and is slightly oscillated. A preparation process is simple. Only a common physical stirring step is needed, and a homogenizing step or a water removing step is not needed. A prepared propofol fat emulsion concentrate liquid can be sterilized by passing through a microporous filtration membrane having a size of 0.22 [mu]m. After emulsification, the content of free propofol is low, and the phenomenon of pain during administration caused by existence of the free propofol is reduced. The propofol composition, the preparing method and uses have advantages of simple preparation process, low production cost, and easy transportation and storage, and have a good application prospect.
Liver cancer is a prevalent malignant cancer, ranking third in terms of mortality rate. Metastasis and recurrence primarily contribute to the high mortality rate of liver cancer. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has low expression of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), which increases the risk of metastasis and recurrence. Nevertheless, the efficacy of FAK phosphorylation inhibitors is currently limited. Thus, investigating the mechanisms by which FAK affects HCC metastasis to develop targeted therapies for FAK may present a novel strategy to inhibit HCC metastasis. This study examined the correlation between FAK expression and the prognosis of HCC. Additionally, we explored the impact of FAK degradation on HCC metastasis through wound healing experiments, transwell invasion experiments, and a xenograft tumor model. The expression of proteins related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was measured to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. The results showed that FAK PROTAC can degrade FAK, inhibit the migration and invasion of HCC cells in vitro, and notably decrease the lung metastasis of HCC in vivo. Increased expression of E-cadherin and decreased expression of vimentin indicated that EMT was inhibited. Consequently, degradation of FAK through FAK PROTAC effectively suppressed liver cancer metastasis, holding significant clinical implications for treating liver cancer and developing innovative anti-neoplastic drugs.

This quasi-experimental study aimed to examine the efficacy of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy/Training (ACT) in reducing weight-related experiential avoidance. Data were collected with a convenience sampling technique. After obtaining ethical approval, participants were invited to participate in the study via advertisements, and online posts. Due to the small sample size, participants who were willing to attend group discussions were included in the experimental group. Participants in the control group did not receive manipulation. All participants were provided with an informed consent form. All participants completed a questionnaire measuring outcomes (weight-related experiential avoidance, general experiential avoidance, eating attitudes, and social physique anxiety) at pre-test, post-test, and follow-up. Participants in the experimental group received ACT training including 6 sessions. The protocol was adapted from Pearson et al. (2012) with their permission. Each session took approximately 80 mins. Several aspects of ACT approach were discussed in the sessions. In session one, ACT approach was introduced. In session two, creative hopelessness was discussed. In session three, control strategies related to weight concern were identified. In session four, mindfulness exercises were completed. In the fifth session, values for meaningful life experience were discussed. In the last, sixth session, the ways to commit to action were discussed. Each session included exercises and homework. At the end of the study, the participants were provided with debrief form.
Psychomotor Performance

In a healthy volunteer study to assess the effects of FYCOMPA tablets on psychomotor performance using a standard battery of assessments including simulated driving, single and multiple daily doses of FYCOMPA 4 mg did not impair simple psychomotor tasks, driving performance, or sensorimotor coordination. Single and multiple doses of 8 mg and 12 mg impaired psychomotor performance in a dose-related manner. Car handling ability was impaired after dosing of FYCOMPA 12 mg, but postural stability was not significantly impaired. Performance testing returned to baseline within 2 weeks of cessation of FYCOMPA dosing.

Interactions with Alcohol

In the above study (see Psychomotor Performance), when administered to healthy subjects receiving alcohol to achieve a blood concentration of 80-100 mg/100 mL, FYCOMPA consistently impaired simple psychomotor performance after single doses of 4 to 12 mg, and after 21 days of multiple 12 mg/day doses. The effects of FYCOMPA on complex tasks such as driving ability were additive or supra-additive to the impairment effects of alcohol. FYCOMPA enhanced the effects of alcohol on vigilance and alertness, and increased levels of anger, confusion, and depression.

Potential to Prolong QT Interval

In a placebo-controlled thorough QT study of perampanel in healthy subjects, there was no evidence that perampanel caused QT interval prolongation of clinical significance at doses of 6 or 12 mg (i.e., the upper bound of the 95% confidence interval for the largest placebo-adjusted baseline-corrected QTc was below 10 msec). The exposures observed with the 12 mg dose in this study will not cover the exposures expected in patients with hepatic impairment taking doses over 6 mg/day. At the highest recommended dose (12 mg), perampanel did not prolong the QTc interval to any clinically relevant extent.

No specific information is available on the treatment of overdosage with enalapril maleate and hydrochlorothiazide. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive. Therapy with enalapril maleate and hydrochlorothiazide should be discontinued and the patient observed closely. Suggested measures include induction of emesis and/or gastric lavage, and correction of dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and hypotension by established procedures.

Enalapril Maleate – Single oral doses of enalapril above 1,000 mg/kg and ≥ 1,775 mg/kg were associated with lethality in mice and rats, respectively. The most likely manifestation of overdosage would be hypotension, for which the usual treatment would be intravenous infusion of normal saline solution. Enalaprilat may be removed from general circulation by hemodialysis and has been removed from neonatal circulation by peritoneal dialysis (see WARNINGS: Anaphylactoid reactions during membrane exposure).

Hydrochlorothiazide– Lethality was not observed after administration of an oral dose of 10 g/kg to mice and rats. The most common signs and symptoms observed are those caused by electrolyte depletion (hypokalemia, hypochloremia, hyponatremia) and dehydration resulting from excessive diuresis. If digitalis has also been administered, hypokalemia may accentuate cardiac arrhythmias.
