Deora, Girdhar Singh published the artcileSubstituted Pyridazin-3(2H)-ones as Highly Potent and Biased Formyl Peptide Receptor Agonists, Formula: C9H10O3, the main research area is pyridazinone derivative preparation formyl peptide receptor agonist antiinflammatory structure.

Herein we describe the development of a focused series of functionalized pyridazin-3(2H)-one-based formyl peptide receptor (FPR) agonists that demonstrate high potency and biased agonism. The compounds described demonstrated biased activation of prosurvival signaling, ERK1/2 phosphorylation, through diminution of the detrimental FPR1/2-mediated intracellular calcium (Cai2+) mobilization. Compound 50 showed an EC50 of 0.083 μM for phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and an approx. 20-fold bias away from Cai2+ mobilization at the hFPR1.

Zhou, You published the artcileAssociation between the magnitude of periprocedural myocardial injury and prognosis in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention., Synthetic Route of 117-96-4, the main research area is high-sensitivity troponin T; percutaneous coronary intervention; periprocedural myocardial injury.

AIMS: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic implications of increased postprocedural cardiac troponin levels in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to define the threshold of prognostically relevant periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI). METHODS AND REASULTS: A total of 3,249 patients with normal baseline troponin levels referred for elective PCI were enrolled and followed up for a median period of 20 months. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) comprising all-cause death, myocardial injury (MI) and ischemic stroke. Post-PCI high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) > 99% upper reference limit (URL) occurred in 78.3% of patients and did not increase the risk of MACEs (adjusted hazard ratio (adHR), 1.00, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.58-1.74, p = 0.990). Nor did ‘major PMI’ defined as post-PCI hs-cTnT above 5 × URL (adHR, 1.30, 95% CI, 0.76-2.23, p = 0.340). Post-PCI troponin > 8 × URL, with an incidence of 15.2%, started to show an association with a higher risk of MACEs (adHR, 1.89, 95% CI, 1.06-3.37, p = 0.032), mainly driven by myocardial infarction (adHR, 2.38, 95% CI, 1.05-5.38, p = 0.037) and ischemic stroke (adHR 3.35, 95% CI, 1.17-9.64, p = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with normal baseline troponin values undergoing elective PCI, PMI defined as hs-cTnT > 8 × URL after PCI was more appropriate for identifying patients with an increased risk of MACEs, which may help guide clinical practice in this population.

Licata, Andrew published the artcileDiatrizoate (Gastrograffin®) Small Bowel Follow Through for Small Bowel Obstructions: Timing and Outcomes., Recommanded Product: Diatrizoic Acid, the main research area is Gastrograffin; acute care surgery, diatrizoate; small bowel follow through; small bowel obstruction; small bowel series.

INTRODUCTION: The advent of the Gastrograffin® small bowel follow through (G-SBFT) has resulted in a decreased rate of operative intervention of small bowel obstructions (SBO); however, there is no data to suggest when G-SBFT should be performed. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 548 patients, admitted to 1 of 9 hospitals with a diagnosis of SBO. Patients were divided into two categories with regards to timing of G-SBFT: before (early) or after (late) 48 hours from admission. Primary outcomes were length of stay (LOS) and total cost. Secondary outcomes were operative interventions and mortality. RESULTS: Of the reviewed patients, 71% had the G-SBFT ordered early. Comparing early versus late, there were no differences in patient characteristics with regards to age, sex, or BMI. There was a significant difference between LOS (4 vs 8 days, P < 0.05) and total cost ($17,056.19 vs $33,292.00, P < 0.05). There was no difference in mortality (1.3% vs 2.6%, P = 0.239) or 30-day readmission rates (15.6% vs 15.9%, P = 0.509). Patients in the early group underwent fewer operations (20.7% vs 31.9%, P = 0.05). DISCUSSION: Patients that had a G-SBFT ordered early had a decreased LOS, total cost, and operative intervention. This suggests there is a benefit to ordering G-SBFT earlier in the hospital stay to reduce the overall disease burden, and that it is safe to do so with regards to mortality and readmissions. We therefore recommend ordering a G-SBFT within 48 hours to reduce LOS, cost, and need for an operation.

Genuardi, E published the artcileFicoll-hypaque separation vs whole blood lysis: Comparison of efficiency and impact on minimal residual disease analysis., Product Details of C11H9I3N2O4, the main research area is Ficoll; cell recovering; minimal residual disease; red blood cell lysis.

INTRODUCTION: The high-throughput era remarkably changed molecular laboratory practice. Actually, the increasing number of processed samples requires to reduce the risk of operator biases, by automating or simplifying as much as possible both the analytical and the pre-analytical phases. Minimal residual disease (MRD) studies in hematology often require a simultaneous processing of many bone marrow and peripheral blood samples from patients enrolled in prospective, multicenter, clinical trials, monitored at several planned time points. METHODS: In this study, we demonstrate that red blood cell lysis (RBL) pre-analytical procedure can replace the time-consuming Ficoll stratification as cell recovering step. Here, we show a MRD comparison study using both total white blood cells and mononuclear cells recovered by the 2 procedures from 46 follicular lymphoma (FL), 15 multiple myeloma (MM), and 11 mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients enrolled in prospective clinical trials. RESULTS: The experiments were performed in the 4 laboratories of the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL) MRD Network and showed superimposable results, in terms of good correlation (R = 0.87) of the MRD data obtained by recovering blood cells by the 2 approaches. CONCLUSION: Based on these results, the FIL MRD Network suggests to optimize the pre-analytical phases introducing RBL approach for cell recovery in the clinical trials including MRD analysis.

Seok, Eun Mi published the artcileEffectiveness of growth hormone therapy in children with Noonan syndrome., Recommanded Product: 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene, the main research area is Efficacy; Growth hormone; Noonan syndrome.

PURPOSE: Recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) has been used to improve growth in children with Noonan syndrome (NS). This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of rhGH therapy in Korean children with NS. METHODS: Seventeen prepubertal children (10 boys, 7 girls) with NS who received rhGH therapy for at least 3 years between 2008 and 2017 were included. To compare the response, age- and sex-matched children with GH deficiency (GHD; n=31) were included. Height and growth velocity before and during treatment were analyzed. RESULTS: The mean age of NS patients was 6.34±2.32 years. After treatment, the height standard deviation score (SDS) increased from -2.93±0.81 to -1.51±1.00 in patients with NS and from -2.45±0.42 to -1.09±0.47 in patients with GHD. There were no significant differences in growth velocity or change in height SDS between patients with NS and GHD. Growth velocity in the first year of treatment was higher in patients with PTPN11 mutations than those without PTPN11 mutations, but the change in height SDS was not significantly different between those 2 groups. CONCLUSION: rhGH therapy can increase linear growth in prepubertal children with NS. The growth response between patients with NS and patients with GHD was not significantly different. Furthermore, we observed that lower doses of growth hormone have a similar effect on height compared to previous studies in patients with NS. Our study indicates that rhGH treatment is useful for growth promotion.

Tang, Stephen J published the artcilePositive Oral Contrast Solution at MDCT for Suspected Acute Appendicitis in Adults: Rate of Appendiceal Luminal Filling of Normal and Inflamed Appendixes., Application of Diatrizoic Acid, the main research area is CT; abdominal pain; acute appendicitis; appendix; oral contrast material.

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to assess the rate of appendiceal filling with a positive oral contrast solution at MDCT performed for suspected acute appendicitis in adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS. We performed a retrospective review of MDCT in 684 consecutive adult patients with suspected acute appendicitis in a 19-month period. Patients were excluded if no positive oral contrast solution (500 mL each of water and polyethylene glycol and 30 mL diatrizoate) was given or if the appendix was not visible or absent. After exclusion, images of 519 patients (mean age ± SD, 37.4 ± 16.0 years; 335 women, 184 men) were reviewed for cecal contrast opacification and appendiceal filling. Imaging findings were recorded as positive or negative for acute appendicitis using all available clinical and pathologic data as a reference standard. A control series of CT colonography (CTC) screening examinations (overnight preparation with universal cecal opacification) in 2552 adults without symptoms of appendicitis was also reviewed. RESULTS. Cecal opacification was confirmed in 313/519 (60.3%) patients, with no difference between those considered to be positive (68/107, 63.6%) or negative (245/412, 59.5%) for appendicitis (p = 0.506). When positive oral contrast solution reached the cecum, appendiceal filling was seen in none of the 68 (0%) with appendicitis and in 205 of the 245 (83.7%) without appendicitis (p < 0.0001). Among CTC control subjects, appendiceal filling was similar to the cohort considered to be without appendicitis (2240/2552 [87.8%], p = 0.070). CONCLUSION. In MDCT for suspected acute appendicitis, luminal filling of the noninflamed appendix exceeds 80% when positive oral contrast solution reaches the cecum, indicating results similar to screening CTC. The appendix did not fill in proven acute appendicitis, indicating appendiceal filling may allow exclusion of appendicitis with high certainty. These results suggest positive oral contrast solution may augment diagnostic accuracy and confidence in cases of suspected acute appendicitis. AJR.

Yamamura, Sadahiro published the artcileReducing the Radiation Dose for CT Colonography: Effect of Low Tube Voltage and Iterative Reconstruction., Name: Diatrizoic Acid, the main research area is CT colonography; image quality; iterative reconstruction; low tube voltage; radiation dose.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of a low-tube-voltage technique and iterative reconstruction (IR) on the radiation dose and image quality of computed tomography colonography (CTC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied 30 patients (14 women and 16 men; mean age, 64.5 ± 13.1 years; range, 39-90 years) with colorectal cancer referred for surgical treatment. All underwent CTC with fecal tagging under a standard 120-kVp protocol in the supine position and a 100-kVp protocol in the prone position. The 120-kVp images were reconstructed with filtered back projection (FBP). The 100-kVp images were postprocessed using FBP and a hybrid type of IR (adaptive iterative dose reduction 3D). The effective radiation dose (ED), image noise, and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were compared among the three protocols. The visual image quality was scored on a four-point scale. RESULTS: The mean ED was significantly lower under the 100-kVp protocol than the 120-kVp protocol, resulting in a 27% radiation dose decrease (3.5 ± 2.0 vs 2.5 ± 1.5 mSv; P < .01). Image noise decreased by 48%, and the mean attenuation of tagged fluid increased from 452 to 558 HU on images acquired at 100 kVp with IR compared to that in the 120-kVp protocol; these differences were significant. The mean CNR was significantly higher under the 100 kVp with IR than the other two protocols. We found no significant differences in the visual scores for diagnostic utility between the 100 kVp with IR and the 120 kVp with FBP protocol (P = .10). CONCLUSIONS: Low-tube-voltage CTC reduced the radiation dose by approximately 27% while maintaining the image quality.

Johnson, Brandon published the artcileObjective and Subjective Intrapatient Comparison of Iohexol Versus Diatrizoate for Bowel Preparation Quality at CT Colonography., SDS of cas: 117-96-4, the main research area is CT colonography; bowel preparation; quality assurance; virtual colonoscopy.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to objectively and subjectively compare nonionic iohexol and ionic diatrizoate iodinated oral contrast agents as part of a cathartic bowel regimen within the same CT colonography (CTC) cohort, with otherwise identical preparations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this retrospective study, 46 adults with no symptoms (mean age, 59.4 years; 26 men and 20 women) returning for follow-up CTC over a 9-month interval underwent the same bowel preparation with the exception of 75 mL of iohexol 350 in place of 60 mL of diatrizoate. All other preparation components (bisacodyl, magnesium citrate, and 2% barium) remained constant. Objective volumetric analysis of residual colonic fluid volume and fluid attenuation was performed. Additionally, two radiologists experienced with CTC who were blinded to the specific bowel preparation scored each of six colonic segments for adherent residual solid stool using a previously validated 4-point scale (0 for no stool; 1-3 for increasing residual stool). A paired t test was used for comparison of the cohorts. RESULTS: No clear clinically meaningful difference was found between the two preparations on overall objective or subjective evaluation. The mean (± SD) residual fluid volume was 173 ± 126 mL with the iohexol preparation and 130 ± 79 mL with the diatrizoate preparation (p = 0.02). The mean total colonic stool score was 2.5 (0.42/segment) with iohexol and 2.3 (0.38/segment) with diatrizoate (p = 0.69). The mean fluid attenuation was higher with iohexol (849 ± 270 HU) compared with diatrizoate (732 ± 168 HU) (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION: On the basis of this direct intrapatient comparison, we found that oral iohexol is a suitable alternative to diatrizoate for fluid tagging as part of a cathartic bowel preparation at CTC. Because this nonionic tagging agent is more palatable, less expensive, and likely safer than ionic diatrizoate, our CTC program now uses iohexol as the standard recommended regimen.

Maduell, Francisco published the artcileOptimization of dialysate flow in on-line hemodiafiltration., Recommanded Product: Diatrizoic Acid, the main research area is Convective volume; Dialysate flow; Efficacy; Eficacia depurativa; Flujo líquido diálisis; Hemodiafiltración on-line; On-line hemodiafiltration; Volumen convectivo.

INTRODUCTION: Currently, on-line hemodiafiltration (HDF-OL) is the most effective technique. Several randomized studies and meta-analyses have shown a reduced mortality and a direct association with convective volume has been reported. At present, it has not been established if an increased dialysate flow (Qd) results in improved results in terms of convective and depurative efficiency. We aim at assessing the effects of Qd variations on convective volume and its depurative capacity in patients on HDF-OL. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 59 patients (45 men and 14 women) from a HDF-OL programme in which a monitor 5008 Cordiax with self-replacement was used, were enrolled. Patients were assessed in 5 sessions with post-dilutional HDF-OL, using helixone-based dialyzers, with only Qd being changed (300, 400, 500, 600 and 700ml/min). Serum levels of urea (60Da), creatinine (113 Da), β2-microglobulin (11,800Da), myoglobin (17,200Da) and α1-microglobulin (33,000Da) were measured at the beginning and at the end of each session, in order to estimate the percent reduction of such solutes. RESULTS: An increased dialysate volume per session was observed, from 117.9±6.4 L with Qd 300ml/min to 232.4±12 L with Qd 700ml/min. No changes were found in replacement volume or convective volume. Regarding diffusion, Qd increase was associated to a significantly increased dialysis dose, with an increased Kt from 68±6.9 L with Qd 300ml/min to 75.5±7.3 L with Qd 700ml/min (p<0,001), and a gradually increased percent reduction in urea associated to increased Qd with significantly lower levels being found with Qd 300ml/min. No changes were found in other measured substances. CONCLUSION: Qd variations in HDF-OL do not change convective volume. A higher Qd was associated to a slightly increased urea clearance with no change being observed for medium and large molecules. Qd optimisation to the minimal level assuring an adequate dialysis dose and allowing water and dialysate use to be rationalised should be recommended.
