When the mean dominant follicle diameter was at least 17 mm and the endometrial thickness was at least 7 mm, serum E2, progesterone and luteinizing hormone (LH) were evaluated. If a spontaneously LH peak was detected (E2\>80 pg/ml, LH peak \>18 mIU/mL with progesterone level \<1.5 ng/mL), vaginal micronized progesterone was started from the evening of ovulation at a dose of 200 mg every 12 hours. Conversely, whenever a LH peak was not detected (E2\>80 pg/ml, LH \<18mIU/ml and progesterone \<1,5 ng/ml), r-hCG 250µg (Ovitrelle®) was administered subcutaneously, followed, 48 hours later, by daily administration of 200 mg micronized vaginal progesterone every 12 hours. One embryo was transferred 7 days after r-hCG administration or 6 days after LH peak detection. Progesterone was continued until the 8th week of pregnancy.
Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus SD11 (SD11) has several health benefits for the host, including antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. However, the antidiabetic mechanism of SD11 has not been clearly elucidated. The current study assessed the effects of SD11 and the associated underlying mechanisms on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice. Compared with the normal control, SD11 supplementation for 4 weeks significantly improved the metabolic profiles, including body weight (BW), fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin level (FIN), and liver index (LI), in conjunction with a lower NAS score. A notable reduction in the liver function parameters aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and total cholesterol (TC), together with histopathology studies, supported diabetic recovery by SD11. A closer examination of two major markers for the insulin pathway, insulin receptor (INSR) and insulin substrate (IRS)-1, revealed that SD11 could exert its glucose control through the upregulation of these molecules, which were almost demolished in nontreated diabetic livers. Additionally, SD11-treated mice exhibited alleviation of oxidative stress enzymes; downregulation of proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and interferon (IFN)-γ; and decreased infiltration of macrophages into liver tissue. These findings were concomitant with the preservation of the tight junction proteins occludin and zona occludin (ZO)-1, which in turn lowered the levels of the inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α and prevented colon tissue injury to some extent. Notably, the results for the SD11 control mice were identical to those for the normal control mice. Overall, our findings that SD11 delays liver deterioration and reduces colon lesions in diabetic mice provide evidence for the use of SD11 as an effective strategy to improve diabetes-related symptoms.

Objective: To investigate the protective effect and possible mechanisms of vitamin B 6 against renal injury in patients with sepsis. Methods: A total of 128 patients with sepsis who met the entry criteria in multiple centers were randomly divided into experimental (intravenous vitamin B 6 therapy) and control (intravenous 0.9% sodium chloride therapy) groups based on usual care. Clinical data, the inflammatory response indicators interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), and endothelin-1 (ET-1), the oxidative stress response indicators superoxide dismutase, glutathione and malondialdehyde, and renal function (assessed by blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, and renal resistance index monitored by ultrasound) were compared between the two groups. Results: After 7 d of treatment, the IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, and ET-1 levels in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group, the oxidative stress response indicators were significantly improved in the experimental group and the blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, and renal resistance index values in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference between the two groups in the rate of renal replacement therapy and 28 d mortality ( P > 0.05). However, the intensive care unit length of stay and the total hospitalization expenses in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion: The administration of vitamin B 6 in the treatment of patients with sepsis attenuates renal injury, and the mechanism may be related to pyridoxine decreasing the levels of inflammatory mediators and their regulation by redox stress.
Thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) is an alternative method to general anesthesia for patients undergoing breast surgery, because it provides a safe anesthesia with balanced hemodynamic response with unilateral somatic and sympathetic blockade, allows postoperative analgesia lowering narcotic usage , minimal nausea and vomiting rate, early discharge and low cost.

Segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia have introduced for cardiac surgery in adults and children in the early 1990's. Kowalewski et al., performed over 10000 cases of spinal injections without a single case of spinal/epidural hematoma or any neurological complications, also segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia has been used successfully for laparoscopic cholecystectomy and abdominal surgeries. It has some advantages when compared with general anesthesia and can be a sole anesthetic in breast cancer surgery with axillary lymph node clearance especially in critical cases. Among its advantages are the quality of postoperative analgesia, lower incidence of nausea and vomiting, and shorter recovery time, with the consequent early hospital discharge. The dose of the anesthetic is exceedingly low, compared with lumbar spinal anesthesia, given the highly specific block to only certain nerve functions along a section of the cord, there is no blockade of the lower extremities. This means that a significantly larger portion of the body experiences no venal dilation, and may offer a compensatory buffer to adverse changes in blood pressure intra-operatively. there was no recorded of neurological complications.The incidence of parasthesia in a study with 300 patients subjected to thoracic spinal puncture at T10-11 was 4.67% in the cut needle group and 8.67% in the pencil point needle group, similar to that reported in lumbar spinal anesthesia.The aim of the present study is the comparison between two sole regional anesthetic techniques, thoracic para-vertebral block and segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia in breast cancer surgery especially for critically ill patients.
The patients will receive allopurinol at an initial daily dose of 200 mg. If insufficient therapy efficacy is noted, the initial allopurinol dose will be increased by 100 mg (up to 300 mg during V2). Similarly, the dose may be increased by another 100 mg at visit 3 and by another 100 mg at the visit 4 (up to 500 mg during V4).
The invention relates to a controlled-release colon targeting drug adminitration preparation. The forms of the preparation are colon site-specific coated tablets or colon targeting pellets. The preparation consists of a tablet core or pellet core, an isolating layer and a controlled-release coating layer, wherein the controlled-release coating layer comprises an internal coating layer and an external coating layer. By adopting the multilayer coating technology, enteric soluble acrylic resin water dispersion and osmotic acrylic resin water dispersion are used as main coating materials for carrying out coating, thereby obtaining the controlled-release colon targeting drug adminitration preparation. The preparation of the invention enables drugs to be released at a constant rate at a colon section, realizes accurate site-specific drug release, increases the concentration of the drugs at some parts of positions with pathological changes, is beneficial to treating ulcerative colitis and carcinoma of colon, avoids the stimulation of the drugs on stomaches and small intestines, achieves the goal of colon site-specific drug release, enhances the targeting site-specific curative effect on colon diseases and reduces the toxic and side effect. Compared with the common oral preparations, under the condition of the same drug adminitration dosage, the preparation of the invention can enhance the curative effect and reduce the incidence rate of untoward reactions. Compared with the enemas or the rectal suppositories, the preparation has the advantages of uniform drug distribution in the colon and good patient compliance.
Inhomogeneous ventilation was more likely to happen in patients after general anesthesia. Inhomogeneous ventilation may associate with ventilator-induced lung injury since the gravity-depend collapse and over-distention of nondependent regional in patients under mechanical ventilation. A large number of post-neurosurgical patients was delayed extubation and received mechanical ventilation, so that, inhomogeneous ventilation was more likely to happen in the population. Up to now, there is no research reported about the prevalence of inhomogeneous ventilation and the factors associated with inhomogeneous ventilation in post-neurosurgical patients, in present study, The investigators prospectively enrolled adult patients after neurosurgical operations. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is an noninvasive, radiation-free, high temporal resolution, relatively cheap technique in monitoring ventilation distribution bedside. The investigators aimed to investigate the incidence of inhomogeneous ventilation and factors associated with inhomogeneous ventilation in post-neurosurgical patients under mechanical ventilation.
Obesity, often caused by disorders of lipid metabolism, is a global health concern. Flavonoids from staple grains and legumes are expected as a safer and more cost-effective alternative for the future development of dietary flavonoid-based anti-obesity dietary supplements or drugs. This review systematically summarized their content variation, metabolism in the human body, effects and molecular mechanisms on lipid metabolism. These flavonoids intervene in lipid metabolism by inhibiting lipogenesis, promoting lipolysis, enhancing energy metabolism, reducing appetite, suppressing inflammation, enhancing insulin sensitivity, and improving the composition of the gut microbial. Fermentation and sprouting techniques enhance flavonoid content and these beneficial effects. The multidirectional intervention of lipid metabolism is mainly through regulating AMPK signaling pathway. This study provides potential improvement for challenges of application, including addressing high extraction costs and improving bioavailability, ensuring safety, filling clinical study gaps, and investigating potential synergistic effects between flavonoids in grains and legumes, and other components.

INTRODUCTION: Mental health concerns are prevalent among adult patients with long COVID (LC), but the current state of knowledge regarding mental health in the context of LC is not fully understood. The objective of this scoping review is to map and summarise the existing research on mental health conditions among LC patients and highlight the knowledge gaps. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of research in the area.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The concept of interest is mental health in adult LC patients. This scoping review will be guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis and reported according to the recommendations in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Review guidelines. Using predefined search parameters, a comprehensive search of two electronic databases (Medline and APA PsycINFO) and grey literature sources identified 3104 potentially eligible articles published from 1 January 2020 to 4 April 2024. Following the removal of duplicates, 2767 articles were imported for screening in Covidence. The study selection process involves screening titles, abstracts and full text of potentially relevant articles, which will then be analysed using thematic analysis. Data will be extracted using a predefined extraction form.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval is not required because this study does not involve human participants or primary data collection. The findings from this review will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed publication, conference presentations and professional networks. In addition, a summary of the results will be shared with patient partners and other relevant stakeholders.
PUBLIC HEALTH IMPLICATIONS: The findings from this scoping review will contribute to a better understanding of mental health issues arising in LC patients and inform future research directions and public health interventions in this area.
Gut microbiota are linked to chronic inflammation and carcinogenesis. Chemotherapy failure is the major cause of recurrence and poor prognosis in colorectal cancer patients. Previously in the investigators' research, the investigators find the contribution of gut microbiota to chemoresistance in patients with colorectal cancer. The investigators found that Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) was abundant in colorectal cancer tissues in patients with recurrence post chemotherapy, and was associated with patient clinicopathological characterisitcs. Furthermore, the investigators' bioinformatic and functional studies demonstrated that Fn promoted colorectal cancer resistance to chemotherapy. Metronidazole has been known to treat with anaerobe infection, including Fusobacterium. So oral metronidazole would be used to reduce the abundance of Fn in patients with high Fn, so as to explore whether oral metronidazole can improve the efficacy of postoperative chemotherapy in patients with colorectal cancer.
Teens are at high risk for traffic violations and motor vehicle crashes because of their young age, lack of driving experience, and exposure to high-risk driving conditions. Crash risk is greatest during the first two years of driving, and especially elevated during the first months of driving. Increasing parent involvement is becoming an important target of young driver education; however, little attention has been devoted to parental management of teen driving after teen licensure. Increased parental management of teen driving could reduce the risk of serious injury during the first months of driving and establish clear expectations for their teens' safe driving thereafter. In two randomized trials, the Checkpoints Program has been demonstrated to increase parental restrictions on teen driving through at least four months post-licensure. In this proposed research, we will evaluate the efficacy of the Checkpoints Program as applied to driver education. The purpose of this study is to assess the extent to which exposure to the Checkpoints Program during driver education classes in Michigan results in increased restrictions on young drivers during the first year of provisional licensure. The design is a randomized trial in which 24-30 commercial driver education classes will be randomly assigned to be either standard driver education or driver education that integrates the Checkpoints Program, Approximately 400 teens enrolled in driver education and one of their parents will be recruited and will complete written surveys at baseline and telephone surveys one month after teens obtained provisional licenses. Teens will complete additional telephone surveys one, three, six, and 12 months after provisional licensure. Study outcomes include parent management practices of teen driving, teen driving experience including the amount and conditions of driving during the first 12 months of licensure, and teen risky driving behaviors.
For most body cavities, the injected iohexol is absorbed into the surrounding tissue and eliminated by the kidneys and bowel as previously described in SECTION II, CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY—Intravascular. Examinations of the uterus (hysterosalpingography) and bladder (voiding cystourethrography) involve the almost immediate drainage of contrast medium from the cavity upon conclusion of the radiographic procedure.

Orally administered iohexol is very poorly absorbed from the normal gastrointestinal tract. Only 0.1 to 0.5 percent of the oral dose was excreted by the kidneys. This amount may increase in the presence of bowel perforation or bowel obstruction. Iohexol is well tolerated and readily absorbed if leakage into the peritoneal cavity occurs.

Visualization of the joint spaces, uterus, fallopian tubes, peritoneal herniations, pancreatic and bile ducts, and bladder can be accomplished by direct injection of contrast medium into the region to be studied. The use of appropriate iodine concentrations assures diagnostic density.

Orally administered OMNIPAQUE produces good visualization of the gastrointestinal tract. OMNIPAQUE is particularly useful when barium sulfate is contraindicated as in patients with suspected bowel perforation or those where aspiration of contrast medium is a possibility.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignant proliferative disorder involving the bone marrow and lymphatic system. Retinal involvement is a rare form of presentation in patients with CML. We report a case of a 49-year-old woman who presented with an acute bilateral visual disturbance. Her initial visual acuity was 20/20 in both eyes. Fundus examination revealed multiple yellowish retinal infiltrates, vascular sheathing, and peripheral sclerosed blood vessels. Fundus fluorescein angiography revealed bilateral peripheral retinal ischemia. Optical coherence tomography of the macula showed varying sizes of hyperreflective lesions distributed within the inner and outer retinal layers and in the subretinal space. Systemic workup revealed marked leukocytosis, and bone marrow biopsy revealed CML. Patients with CML can rarely present with ocular symptoms. Early recognition and prompt referral are crucial in lifesaving.
