Medical countermeasures against henipaviruses: a review and public health perspective.

Henipaviruses, including Nipah virus, are regarded as pathogens of notable epidemic potential because of their high pathogenicity and the paucity of specific medical countermeasures to control infections in humans. We review the evidence of medical countermeasures against henipaviruses and project their cost in a post-COVID-19 era. Given the sporadic and unpredictable nature of henipavirus outbreaks, innovative strategies will be needed to circumvent the infeasibility of traditional phase 3 clinical trial regulatory pathways. Stronger partnerships with scientific institutions and regulatory au

The Metabolic Features of Osteoblasts: Implications for Multiple Myeloma (MM) Bone Disease.

The study of osteoblast (OB) metabolism has recently received increased attention due to the considerable amount of energy used during the bone remodeling process. In addition to glucose, the main nutrient for the osteoblast lineages, recent data highlight the importance of amino acid and fatty acid metabolism in providing the fuel necessary for the proper functioning of OBs. Among the amino acids, it has been reported that OBs are largely dependent on glutamine (Gln) for their differentiation and activity. In this review, we describe the main metabolic pathways governing OBs' fate and functio

Cuproptosis related genes in immune infiltration and treatment of osteoporosis by bioinformatic analysis and machine learning methods.

Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent form of cell death, has been implicated in immune function and osteoporosis. However, the specific roles of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in osteoporosis remain unclear. The differentially expressed CRGs from the Gene Expression Omnibus datasets of persons with osteoporosis and healthy individuals were categorized using R software tools in this study. Following that, the CIBERSORT algorithm and the GSVA technique were used to investigate the relationships between the different clusters and immune infiltration characteristics. Based on four machine learning te

Радиум - с момента открытия и до настоящего времени - обзор событий.

После его открытия радий первоначально пропагандировался в качестве терапевтического агента для широкого круга заболеваний, включая расстройства кожи, аллергию, проблемы зрения, боль в суставах и общее средство для укрепления здоровья. Однако последующие исследования продемонстрировали ее значительную радиологическую токсичность и вредное воздействие на здоровье человека. Несмотря на эти риски, более чем через сто лет после его открытия, некоторые радиевые изотопы по-прежнему имеют ограниченное применение в медицинских целях, особенно при лечении конкретных раковых заболеваний.

Yellow nail syndrome: a review.

Yellow nail syndrome (YNS; OMIM 153300, ORPHA662) is a very rare disorder that almost always occurs after 50 years of age but a juvenile or familial form has also been observed. YNS is diagnosed based on a triad associating yellow nail discoloration, pulmonary manifestations (chronic cough, bronchiectasia, pleural effusion) and lower limb lymphedema. Chronic sinusitis is frequently associated with the triad. YNS etiology remains unknown but a role of lymphatic impairment is usually evoked. YNS is more frequently isolated but may be associated in rare cases with autoimmune diseases, other clini

Targeted Delivery Strategies for Multiple Myeloma and Their Adverse Drug Reactions.

Currently, multiple myeloma (MM) is a prevalent hematopoietic system malignancy, known for its insidious onset and unfavorable prognosis. Recently developed chemotherapy drugs for MM have exhibited promising therapeutic outcomes. Nevertheless, to overcome the shortcomings of traditional clinical drug treatment, such as off-target effects, multiple drug resistance, and systemic toxicity, targeted drug delivery systems are optimizing the conventional pharmaceuticals for precise delivery to designated sites at controlled rates, striving for maximal efficacy and safety, presenting a promising appr

Efficacy and safety of venous angioplasty of the extracranial veins for multiple sclerosis. Brave dreams study (brain venous drainage exploited against multiple sclerosis): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

BackgroundMultiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system with a disabling progressive course. Chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI) has recently been described as a vascular condition characterized by restricted venous outflow from the brain, mainly due to blockages of the internal jugular and azygos veins. Despite a wide variability among studies, it has been found to be associated with MS. Data from a few small case series suggest possible improvement of the clinical course and quality of life by performing percutaneous ball
