To develop a Core Outcome Set (COS) for treatment of perinatal depression.

Systematic overview of outcomes reported in the literature and consensus development study.

International.

Two hundred and twenty-two participants, mainly patients, healthcare professionals and researchers, representing 13 countries.

A systematic overview of outcomes reported in recently published research, a two-round Delphi survey and a consensus meeting at which the final COS was decided using modified nominal group technique.

In the literature search, 1772 abstracts were identified and evaluated, and 165 studies were finally included in the review. In all, 106 outcomes were identified and included in the Delphi survey. In all, 222 participants registered for the first round of the Delphi survey and 151 (68%) responded. In the second round, 123 (55%) participants responded. Thirteen participants attended the consensus meeting, where the following nine outcomes were agreed upon for inclusion in the final COS self-assessed symptoms of depression, diagnosis of depression by a clinician, parent to infant bonding, self-assessed symptoms of anxiety, quality of life, satisfaction with intervention, suicidal thoughts, attempted or committed suicide, thoughts of harming the baby, and adverse events.

The relevant stakeholders prioritised outcomes and reached consensus on a COS comprising nine outcomes. We expect that this COS will contribute to the consistency and uniformity of outcome selection and reporting in future clinical trials involving treatment of perinatal depression.

Development of a core outcome set regarding treatment for perinatal depression by @SBU_en. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT.

Development of a core outcome set regarding treatment for perinatal depression by @SBU_en. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT.The full-length human ACE2 in complex with B0 AT1 is anchored to two S in open pre-fusion state which allows establishing pre-invasion interactions with the ACE2 N-terminal domain.The black rat is considered one of the world's top pests. With increased restrictions on rodenticides, new alternatives to manage rats are urgently needed. Research on the use of contraceptive hormones, levonorgestrel (LE), and quinestrol (QU), have been evaluated against some rodent species, and this research is the first study to assess these on black rats. Hormones were incorporated into rodent bait at 10 and 50 ppm concentrations singly and in combination (EP-1). Groups of 10 animals of each sex were fed the baits over 7 days. Rapamycin purchase Lower bait consumption was observed with slight body mass reductions. On dissection, it was observed that the uterus was in a state of edema and male reproductive organs weighed less with reduced sperm counts/motility. The 2 most promising baits, 50 ppm QU and EP-1, were used to assess impact on pregnancy and litter size. Pregnancy was reduced from 70% success when both males and females consumed untreated bait, down to 30% when males had consumed contraceptive bait but females had not, and down to 0% when females had consumed contraceptive bait, regardless of whether they had paired with a treated or untreated male. Litter size in the untreated pairs was 8 pups, but only 4 pups in those cases where the male only had consumed the contraceptive. Further studies should investigate how long the effect lasts and its reversibility. Field studies at the population level may also shed light on the practicality of using contraceptive baits for black rats in different habitats.In silico screening predicted 1 (N-(4-((4-(3-(4-(3-methoxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)propyl)piperazin-1-yl) sulfonyl)-phenyl)acetamide) as an inhibitor of the S100A2-p53 protein-protein interaction. S100A2 is a validated pancreatic cancer drug target. In the MiaPaCa-2 pancreatic cell line, 1 was a ∼50 μM growth inhibitor. Synthesis of five focused compound libraries and cytotoxicity screening revealed increased activity from the presence of electron withdrawing moieties on the sulfonamide aromatic ring, with the 3,5-bis-CF3 Library 3 analogues the most active, with GI50 values of 0.91 (3-ClPh; 13 i; BxPC-3, Pancreas) to 9.0 μM (4-CH3 ; 13 d; PANC-1, Pancreas). Activity was retained against an expanded pancreatic cancer cell line panel (MiaPaCa-2, BxPC-3, AsPC-1, Capan-2, PANC-1 and HPAC) and the normal cell line MCF10A (breast). Bulky 4-disposed substituents on the terminal phenyl ring enhanced broad spectrum activity with growth inhibition values spanning 1.1 to 3.1 μM (4-C(CH3 )3 ; 13 e; BxPC-3 and AsPC-1 (pancreas), respectively). Central alkyl spacer contraction from propyl to ethyl proved detrimental to activity with Library 4 and 5.5- to 10-fold less cytotoxic than the propyl linked Library 2 and Library 3. The data herein was consistent with the predicted binding poses of the compounds evaluated. The highest levels of cytotoxicity were observed with those analogues best capable of adopting a near identical pose to the p53-peptide in the S100A2-p53 binding groove.

To assess whether a FiASP-and-pramlintide closed-loop system has the potential to replace carbohydrate counting with a simple meal announcement (SMA) strategy (meal priming bolus without carbohydrate counting) without degrading glycaemic control compared with a FiASP closed-loop system.

We conducted a 24-hour feasibility study comparing a FiASP system with full carbohydrate counting (FCC) with a FiASP-and-pramlintide system with SMA. We conducted a subsequent 12-day outpatient pilot study comparing a FiASP-and-placebo system with FCC, a FiASP-and-pramlintide system with SMA, and a FiASP-and-placebo system with SMA. Basal-bolus FiASP-and-pramlintide were delivered at a fixed ratio (1 U10 μg). Glycaemic outcomes were measured, surveys evaluated gastrointestinal symptoms and diabetes distress, and participant interviews helped establish a preliminary coding framework to assess user experience.

Seven participants were included in the feasibility analysis. Time spent in 3.9-10 mmol/L was similar between both interventions (81%-84%). Four participants were included in the pilot analysis. Time spent in 3.9-10 mmol/L was similar between the FiASP-and-placebo with FCC and FiASP-and-pramlintide with SMA interventions (70%), but was lower in the FiASP-and-placebo with SMA intervention (60%). Time less than 3.9 mmol/L and gastrointestinal symptoms were similar across all interventions. Emotional distress was moderate at baseline, after the FiASP-and-placebo with FCC and SMA interventions, and fell after the FiASP-and-pramlintide with SMA intervention. SMA reportedly afforded participants flexibility and reduced mealtime concerns.

The FiASP-and-pramlintide system has the potential to substitute carbohydrate counting with SMA without degrading glucose control.

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a chronic progressive disease with complex pathogenesis of which the bile acids (BAs) and gut microbiota are involved. Soyasaponins (SS) exhibits many health-promoting effects including hepatoprotection, but its prevention against NASH is unclear. This study aims to investigate the preventive bioactivities of SS monomer (SS-A

) against NASH and further clarify its mechanism by targeting the BAs and gut microbiota.

The methionine and choline deficient (MCD) diet-fed male C57BL/6 mice were intervened with obeticholic acid or SS-A

for 16 weeks. Hepatic pathology is assessed by hematoxylin-eosin and Masson's trichrome staining. BAs in serum, liver, and colon are measured by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UPLC-TQMS). Gut microbiota in caecum are determined by 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing. In the MCD diet-induced NASH mice, SS-A

significantly reduces hepatic steatosis, lobular inflammation, ballooning, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (NAS) scores, and fibrosis, decreases Erysipelotrichaceae (Faecalibaculum) and Lactobacillaceae (Lactobacillus) and increases Desulfovibrionaceae (Desulfovibrio). Moreover, SS-A

reduces serum BAs accumulation and promotes fecal BAs excretion. SS-A

changes the BAs profiles in both liver and serum and specifically increases the taurohyodeoxycholic acid (THDCA) level. Faecalibaculum is negatively correlated with serum THDCA.

SS-A

alleviates steatohepatitis possibly through regulating BAs and gut microbiota in the MCD diet-induced NASH mice.

To study whether serum estradiol (E2) levels prior to progesterone administration in the artificial endometrial preparation (AEP) of frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer affect the live birth rate.

Retrospective cohort study.

Tertiary-care academic medical centre.

A total of 3857 frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer cycles were divided into three groups <200pg/ml (n=1676); 200-399pg/ml (n=1296); and ≥400pg/ml (n=885), based on the 25th (182.3pg/ml) and 75th percentile (390.2pg/ml) of serum E2 level prior to progesterone administration.

Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed.

The primary outcome of the study was the live birth rate and the secondary outcomes included clinical pregnancy rate, pregnancy loss rate, neonatal birthweight, Z-score, and small for gestational age (SGA).

Compared with the reference group, accounting for major covariates, the live birth rate significantly decreased in the '≥400pg/ml' group (adjusted OR0.71, 95%CI 0.59-0.85). Compared with the reference group, there was an association between the E2 level in the '≥400pg/ml' group and a decrease in the clinical pregnancy rate (adjusted OR0.74, 95%CI 0.61-0.89). Compared with the reference group, the pregnancy loss rate significantly increased in the '≥400pg/ml' group (adjusted OR1.45, 95%CI 1.08-1.93). The E2 levels did not affect neonatal birthweight, Z-score, and SGA among singletons.

High serum E2 levels prior to progesterone administration in AEP are associated with a decreased live birth rate after frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer.

High serum E2 levels prior to progesterone administration in artificial FET are associated with a decreased live birth rate after frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer.

To compare clinical characteristics and outcomes in patients undergoing excision of polypropylene urogynaecological mesh for pain, mesh exposure or both.

Prospective, longitudinal cohort.

Academic tertiary referral centre.

Women undergoing complete vaginal mesh excision for mesh exposure and/or pain.

Clinical and patient-reported outcomes assessing pain (visual analog scale, VAS), bother (Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory, PFDI) and functional impact (Pelvic Functional Impact Questionnaire, PFIQ) were collected at baseline, 6, 12 and 24months after complete mesh excision. Outcomes were compared by mesh type (sling, prolapse [transvaginal or sacrocolpopexy mesh], both) and complication (pain, exposure, both).

'Much better' or 'Very much better' on Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) up to 2years after removal.

Of 173 women, 48 underwent removal for pain, 27 for exposure and 98 for exposure plus pain. 'Moderate to severe' baseline symptoms were reported by 75%; the most prevalent and severe symptom was dyspareunia.
