A growing body of evidence from preclinical, translational, and clinical studies supports a bidirectional relationship within the gut-brain axis that contributes to neurobiological symptoms including anxiety, depression, fatigue, stress, and sleep disturbance. These symptoms have a significant impact on health-related quality of life and functional ability in individuals with inflammatory bowel disease. Clinical studies that generate high-quality evidence on pharmacological and nonpharmacological (eg, psychosocial, behavioral) interventions are needed to ultimately improve access to safe and effective therapies that have a meaningful impact on patients and to guide medical and regulatory decisions. This review outlines a framework for designing and conducting randomized controlled trials for interventions that target neurobiological symptoms in patients with inflammatory bowel disease based on the most recent guidance published within the past 5 years from policy makers, clinicians specialized in inflammatory bowel disease, patient-reported outcomes methodologists, health economists, patient advocates, industry representatives, ethicists, and clinical trial experts.The plant vacuole recycles proteins and RNA delivered to it by autophagy. Here, we provide a comprehensive characterization of the plant vacuolar RNAome by isolating intact vacuoles from Arabidopsis plants, subsequent RNA purification and deep sequencing. In the vacuolar RNAomes, we detected ribosomal RNAs, and transfer RNAs, including those of chloroplast origin and small RNA types in addition. As autophagy is a main mechanism for the transport of RNA to the vacuole, atg5-1 mutants deficient in autophagy were included in our analysis. We observed severely reduced amounts of most chloroplast-derived RNA species in these mutants. By comparison with the cellular RNA composition, indications for the upregulation of alternative RNA breakdown pathways were obtained. By contrast, vacuolar RNA processing and composition in plants lacking vacuolar ribonuclease 2, involved in cellular RNA homeostasis, only showed minor alterations, possibly because of the presence of further so far unknown vacuolar RNase species. Among the small RNA types, we detected mature miRNAs in all vacuolar preparations but at much lower frequency in atg5-1, raising the possibility of a biological role for vacuolar miRNAs.

This study was to determine whether alamandine (Ala) could reduce ischaemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury of kidney in rats.

Renal I/R was induced by an occlusion of bilateral renal arteries for 70 min and a 24-h reperfusion in vivo, and rat kidney proximal tubular epithelial cells NRK52E were exposed to 24 h of hypoxia and followed by 3-h reoxygenation (H/R) in vitro.

The elevated serum creatinine (Cr), blood cystatin C (CysC) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels in I/R rats were inhibited by Ala treatment. Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF)-α, IL-1β, IL-6, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-8 and Bax were increased, and Bcl2 was reduced in the kidney of I/R rats, which were reversed by Ala administration. Ala reversed the increase of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-8 and Bax and the decrease of Bcl2 in the H/R NRK52E cells. Ala could also inhibit the increase of oxidative stress levels in the kidney of I/R rats. NADPH oxidase 1 (Nox1) overexpression reversed the improving effects of Ala on renal function, inflammation and apoptosis of I/R rats.

These results indicated that Ala could improve renal function, attenuate inflammation and apoptosis in the kidney of I/R rats via inhibiting oxidative stress.

Using Scandinavian population-based registries, we assessed risk of stroke/systemic embolism (SE) and bleeding with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin in oral anticoagulation-naïve patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).

This historical cohort study included 219,545 AF patients (median age, 74 years; 43% women; mean CHA2DS2-VASc score 3.3) initiating apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, or warfarin in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden 01JAN2013-31DEC2016. The primary endpoints were stroke/SE and major bleeding. The median follow-up times were 9.7 (3.9-21.5) months for stroke/SE and 9.6 (3.8-21.3) months for bleeding. Apixaban and warfarin initiators were older and had higher CHA2DS2-VASc scores compared with dabigatran and rivaroxaban initiators. After 11 propensity score matching, three cohorts were created apixaban-warfarin (n=111,162), dabigatran-warfarin (n=56,856), and rivaroxaban-warfarin (n=61,198). Adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated using a Cox regression. For strn and dabigatran and higher with rivaroxaban, each compared with warfarin.

Data from point prevalence surveys (PPSs) in India are scarce. Conducting PPSs is especially challenging in the absence of electronic medical records, a lack of dedicated resources and a high patient load in resource-poor settings. This multicentre survey was conducted to provide background data for planning and strengthening antimicrobial stewardship programmes across the country.

This inpatient PPS was conducted over 2 weeks in May 2019 simultaneously across five study centres in India. Data about patient characteristics, indications for antimicrobials use and details of each antimicrobial prescribed including supportive investigation reports were collected in predesigned forms.

A total of 3473 admitted patients in wards and ICUs were covered across five study centres. Of these, 1747 (50.3%) patients were on antimicrobials, with 46.9% patients being on two or more antimicrobials. signaling pathway Out of the total antimicrobials prescribed, 40.2% of the antimicrobials were prescribed for community-acquired infection requiring hospitalization followed by surgical prophylaxis (32.6%). Third-generation cephalosporins and drugs from the 'Watch' category were prescribed most commonly. Only 22.8% of the antimicrobials were based on microbiology reports.

The survey demonstrated a high use of antimicrobials in admitted patients with a considerable proportion of drugs from the 'Watch' category. The targets for interventions that emerged from the survey were improving surgical prophylaxis, decreasing double anaerobic cover, initiating culture of sending cultures and de-escalation with targeted therapy.
