Also, the level of ferritin protein in the curcumin group compared to the placebo group showed a significant decrease after 3 months of curcumin use. Therefore, it could be concluded that curcumin might exert a net protective effect on copper toxicity in thalassemia intermedia patients. The investigation also implicated that curcumin represents an approach to regulating zinc homeostasis and may be useful as a complementary treatment of patients with thalassemia intermedia, especially in patients with zinc deficiency or low serum zinc/copper ratio. Clinical Trial Registration Number IRCT20190902044668N1.Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable disease, and patients usually receive multiple lines of therapy. Due to the abundance of novel treatments for MM, we conducted a network meta-analysis to identify combinations that could fare better than others in relapsed/refractory MM, in the setting of novel drugs. We searched PubMed and Cochrane databases for phase III trials in previously treated MM that had lenalidomide or bortezomib in the control arm. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), extracted as hazard-ratio. We used the P score to rank treatments. Thirteen studies were included. All but two studies compared one novel agent against two, with or without dexamethasone. Based on the P score, daratumumab and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin had a higher probability of achieving better PFS, followed by isatuximab, carfilzomib, pomalidomide, and panobinostat. Although most overall survival data were not mature enough, the addition of a second or third novel agent to either immunomodulatory (IMID) or proteasome inhibitor (PI) backbone seemed to improve survival (HR = 0.84, 95CI 0.77-0.92). Severe adverse events were more frequent with isatuximab, panobinostat, and pomalidomide. In summary, in the absence of trials directly comparing two novel agents-based therapies, we provide a tool that indirectly compares these newer therapies and that can help physicians to prioritize some regimens over others.The present study assessed the serostatus of Coxiella burnetii in a dairy cattle herd from the Al Ain region, UAE. In addition, the study evaluated the relationship between C. burnetii seropositivity and history of abortion and cattle age. Blood/sera from 759 cattle were tested by ELISA, and the data analyzed by the Pearson Chi-square test (PCST), odds ratios, and logistic regression. Of the 759 study cattle, 36.5% (277/759) were seropositive while 63.5% (482/759) were seronegative for C. burnetii. Additionally, 19.5% (148/759) of the cattle had ever aborted while 80.5% (611/759) had not. Meanwhile, 34.3% (95/277) of the C. selleckchem burnetii-seropositive cattle (CBSPos) had history of abortion while 65.7% (182/277) did not. By comparison, only 11.0% (53/482) of the C. burnetii-seronegative (CBSNeg) cattle had history of abortion while 89.0% (429/482) had never aborted. The difference in the conditional probabilities of CBSPos or CBSNeg cattle that had history of abortion was statistically significant (PCST; p value 0.001), as was the association between a CBSPos outcome and history of abortion (p value 0.0001). Moreover, the odds of prior abortion having occurred in CBSPos were 4.3 times higher than in CBSNeg cattle. Similarly, the log of the odds of past abortions was positively correlated with C. burnetii seropositivity and cattle age (p value  less then  0.001). These data demonstrate apparent C. burnetii infections in cattle from the UAE in which the risk of abortion appears to increase with cattle age. Molecular testing for C. burnetii and comprehensive investigations of other abortigenic pathogens in the study cattle herd are recommended.

To identify the subluxation degrees of extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU) tendon on neutral wrist MRI in patients with ulnar-sided wrist pain and to evaluate the relationships of ECU subluxation with accompanying imaging findings such as ECU tenosynovitis, distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) stability, and triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) pathology.

A total of 297 MRIs of 292 patients having ulnar side pain were reviewed retrospectively. Degrees of ECU subluxation was classified into four grades grade 0, no subluxation; grade 1, tendon displacement < 50% of the tendon width; grade 2, tendon displacement 51 to 99% of the tendon width; and grade 3, tendon displacement of 100% of the tendon width. ECU tenosynovitis, ECU tendinosis, injuries of triangular fibrocartilage and distal radioulnar ligaments (DRUL), translation ratio of the DRUJ, rotation angle of the DRUJ, and the width, depth, and length of the ulnar groove were assessed on wrist MRI. The relationships between degree of ECU subluxation and these imaging findings were investigated.

Women had higher subluxation degrees of the ECU tendon (p = 0.001). Tenosynovitis of the ECU, sprain of the dorsal DRUL, dorsovolar translation ratio and rotation angle of the DRUJ, and depth and length of the ulnar groove were statistically significantly related to the subluxation degree of the ECU tendon (p = 0.000).

High-grade subluxation of the ECU tendon was strongly correlated with ECU tenosynovitis and DRUJ translation. Clinicians and radiologists should scrutinize imaging findings, particularly when patients with ulnar-sided wrist pain have high-grade subluxation of the ECU tendon.

High-grade subluxation of the ECU tendon was strongly correlated with ECU tenosynovitis and DRUJ translation. Clinicians and radiologists should scrutinize imaging findings, particularly when patients with ulnar-sided wrist pain have high-grade subluxation of the ECU tendon.

Undocumented immigration is often accompanied by multiple and complex stressors, which over time may increase the risk for chronic pain.

This study aimed to identify the prevalence of chronic pain and its association with psychological distress among undocumented Latinx immigrants in the USA.

We used respondent-driven sampling to collect and analyze data from clinical interviews with 254 undocumented Latinx immigrants, enabling inference to a population of 22,000.

Chronic pain was assessed using the World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) Chronic Conditions Module. For all analyses, inferential statistics accounted for design effects and sample weights to produce weighted estimates. We conducted logistic regression analyses to assess the association between chronic pain and psychological distress after controlling for age, years in the USA, and history of trauma.

A total of 28% of undocumented Latinx immigrants reported having chronic pain, and 20% of those had clinically significant psychological distress.
