title: Interchangeability of medications and biopharmaceutical implication of taking drugs with fluids other than water: ibuprofen case study

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to compare the dissolution properties of ibuprofen solid oral dosage forms commercially available in Bosnia and Herzegovina and to estimate the influence of dissolution medium composition on the drug release. Eight products (A-H) were subjected to in vitro dissolution test using experimental conditions described in USP42-NF37. Dissolution properties of one selected product were examined in the presence of alcohol (22.2% v/v) and fruit juice (22.2% v/v). Products marked B-H complied with the pharmacopeial criteria. Dissolution profile of product B was similar with dissolution profiles of products D, E, F and G and similarity was also found between products A-D, C-G, D-G and E-F. Drug release from most of the examined preparations fitted best to the Weibull kinetic model. In the presence of alcohol in the medium, higher amount of ibuprofen was dissolved. Contrary, ibuprofen dissolved in the presence of fruit juice was significantly lower. Differences in the dissolution profiles of investigated preparations suggest that their interchangeability should be additionally considered and demonstrated with in vivo bioequivalence studies. Presence of different substances in the medium can affect dissolution properties of ibuprofen, emphasizing the importance of the patient’s compliance.

title: Effect of amitriptyline on learning and memory consolidation in the male Wistar rats with an experimental model of pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure

description: Abstract Amitriptyline (AMT) was developed for the treatment of chronic and neuropathic pain. There is also evidence it may be useful in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. In this regard, the effect of on the experimental model of seizures and memory impairment caused by seizures in rats is investigated in the present study. Seizures in Wistar rats (200-250 g) were induced by pentylenetetrazole (PTZ, 60 mg/kg, intraperitoneally (i.p.)). The anticonvulsant effect of AMT (10 and 20 mg/kg, i.p.) was evaluated in the seizure model. The effect on memory was assessed using passive avoidance (PA) learning and memory test. After behavioral tests, the animals underwent deep anesthesia and were put down painlessly. Animal serum was isolated for oxidant/antioxidant assays (malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx)). Intraperitoneal injection of AMT decreased the mean number of myoclonic jerks and generalized tonic-clonic seizure (GTCS) duration and increased the mean latency of myoclonic jerk and GTCS compared to the PTZ group. Moreover, in the PA test, AMT caused a significant increase in retention latency (RL) and total time spent in the light compartment (TLC) compared to the PTZ group. Biochemical tests showed that AMT was able to significantly increase GPx serum levels and significantly reduce MDA serum levels compared to the PTZ group. Overall, this study suggests the potential neuroprotective effects of the AMT drug in a model of memory impairment caused by seizures via the mechanism of inhibition of the oxidative stress pathway.

title: Surgical Correction of Metatarsal Angular Deviation in a Thoroughbred Filly Using Wedge Metatarsal Ostectomy: a case report

description: Abstract This study describes a corrective procedure for a metatarsal angular malformation using wedge ostectomy in a 41-day-old Thoroughbred filly. A 41.6 °angular malformation of the metatarsus was corrected with wedge ostectomy of the left hindlimb in association with a type II external fixator and methyl methacrylate resin. The animal was subjected to the surgical procedure under general anesthesia. The filly was placed in dorsal recumbency with the left hind limb free for manipulation. A bone saw was used for the wedge ostectomy, while the bars for external fixation were placed using a drill. A Kirschner pin and acrylic resin were then applied. Radiographic images obtained immediately after surgery confirmed a total malformation reduction of 32.6 (from 41.6° to 9°). With medication and a Robert Jones bandage, intensive postoperative care was instituted to ensure that the animal adapted properly to the linear external fixator without overloading the pins and connection bars. No postoperative complications were observed. On the day after surgery, the filly was standing and walking with no signs of pain. After 180 days, total osseous calcification was achieved, and the implants were removed during the second surgery. The filly demonstrated adequate locomotion, performed all the movements, and ran without any difficulty in the paddock. The remaining discrete angular deviations were partially corrected using hoof trimming.

title: MicroRNA-150-5p inhibits the proliferation and invasion of human larynx epidermiod cancer cells though regulating peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase

description: Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanism of miR-150-5p regulating the malignant biological behavior of Human Epidermoid cancer cell (HEp-2) by targeting peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase NIMA-Interacting-1 (PIN1). Methods Firstly, qRT-PCR and Western blot were adopted to detect the expression levels of miR-150-5p and PIN1 in cancer tissue and paracancerous tissues of patients with LSCC, and those in human bronchial epithelial cells (16 HBE) and HEp-2. Next, the targeted relationship between miR-150-5p and PIN1 was assessed by bioinformatics website and dual-luciferase reporter assay, followed by their correlation analysis. Besides, after interfering with miR-150-5p or PIN1 expression in HEp-2 cells, CCK-8, cell colony formation assay, and transwell assay were utilized to detect the proliferation, viability, and invasion of cells, respectively. Subsequently, the protein levels of MMP-2, MMP-9, and EMT-related proteins in HEp-2 cells were checked by Western blot. Results Expression of miR-150-5p was down-regulated in LSCC tissues and HEp-2 cells. Moreover, miR-150-5p suppressed proliferation and invasion of HEp-2 cells, affected protein expression related to MMP and EMT, thereby inhibiting development of cancer. The expression of PIN1 was significantly increased in cancer tissues and HEp-2 cells, and there was a targeted relationship and negative correlation between miR-150-5p and PIN1 in cancer tissue. However, overexpression of PIN1 could reverse the effect of miR-150-5p on the proliferation and invasion of HEp-2 cells. Conclusion In a nutshell, there is a targeted relationship between PIN1 and miR-150-5p. Besides, miR-150-5p can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of HEp-2 cells by regulating the expression of PIN1. Level of evidence 3.

title: Photovoice as a tool for teaching and learning about palliative care

description: Abstract: Introduction: Palliative care was recently included in the undergraduate medical curriculum in Brazil, but putting its teaching into practice represents a major challenge. Palliative care involves intimate contact with suffering and caring for issues that go beyond physical symptoms, aspects generally unfamiliar to medical students. Photovoice (PV) is a multifaceted tool that can support the teaching, research and extension trinomial. In its application as a pedagogical tool, students generally act as participants and the teacher as facilitator. Students are invited to take photographs (photo) and narrate these images (voice) ascribing meaning and interpretation within a context. Experience Report: A group of students was invited to produce a manuscript with the theme “Palliative care from the point of view of a third-year medical student”. The work was developed over 12 weekly meetings in the form of conversation circles that dealt with materials previously sent to students such as music, videos and texts. Each student produced an individual PV. Photovoices prepared by the students were spontaneously divided into three groups: family experiences of palliative care, professional experiences in practice scenarios and development of the theme in a more conceptual manner. Discussion: Despite the limitations and difficulties of the theme and the methodology used, the final balance of the experience was very positive, not only in relation to student learning, but also to the creation of a strong bond within the group, which expressed deep gratitude for the work developed over the course of the semester. Conclusion: In view of the nine PVs produced, as a result of each student’s individual reflection, it is clear that each member of the group was touched in a different way by the subject, even though all the reflections were presented collectively during our meetings. The production of a PV allowed the externalization of different views on the same subject in a personal and humanistic way, in other words, the perception of palliative care in the view of a third-year medical student.

title: Internet addiction disorder among medicine students in the first year of the covid-19 pandemic

description: Abstract: Introduction: Although the internet provides various facilities, its inadequate and excessive use can cause Internet Addiction Disorder, especially among university students, who browse the web for entertainment, communication and academic activities, and even more so during the COVID-19 pandemic, when education switched to online. This disorder results in several detrimental consequences such as diminished student performance and aggravation or triggering of other psychiatric conditions. Objective: To evaluate the presence of Internet Addiction Disorder in medical students at the state of Alagoas, Brazil. Methods: Quantitative, cross-sectional and analytic study conducted among medical students from two universities in the state of Alagoas during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The data was gathered through an online form with a social-demographic questionnaire, the Internet Addiction Test, and variables (sex, age, semester of study, city of birth, grade point average). The data was analysed in the SPSS 24 and JASP 0.14 programs. Results: The survey was applied to 325 students, 97.2% of whom affirmed to have increased their internet usage during the pandemic. The average score in the Internet Addiction Test was 32.5, with 80.6% displaying some degree of disorder, 66.8% a mild dependence, and 13.8% moderate dependence. A higher prevalence of the disorder was found among males, who were also shown to be more used to making new friendships through the internet, to hide what they are doing online, and to spend more time logged in than planned. The compulsion was more severe in lower social classes, initial semester and those who came from public university, cities with a population of less than 50.000, and immigrants. There was a negative correlation between lower final semester grades and higher grades in the Internet Addiction Test (Pearson -0,121, p-value: 0,045). Conclusions: The data of this study point to a major possibility of medical students developing Internet Addiction Disorder, with more severe dependence among those who are males, from lower social classes, in earlier periods of study, students from public universities, from cities with a population of less than 50.000 inhabitants and immigrants. The presence of Internet Addiction Disorder was inversely proportional to academic performance.

title: Spatial variability of the occurrence of lesions on cattle carcasses in association with pre-slaughter factors in the forest–savannah transition zone

description: ABSTRACT This study mapped cattle carcass lesions and associated the isoline maps with the occurrence factors of these lesions. Isoline maps were drawn by common kriging. The associated occurrence factors were the layout of the boards in the crowding tub (CT), characteristics of the hauling truck (general state and the presence of loose and/or sharp boards), broken boards in the corral (BBC), type of road covered (TRC), and animal falls upon unloading at the slaughterhouse (FAUS). The BBC showed a higher number of carcass lesions in the rib region. The data on FAUS and deterioration of hauling trucks fit an exponential model, with more carcass lesions in the rib and hindquarters, and plate regions, respectively. The data on spaced boards in the CT and TRC (mixed) showed greater carcass lesions in the rib region. Therefore, this method provides important information about the spatial distribution of lesions in bovine carcasses, and the drawing sheet used is adequate to represent such lesions.
