The aim of this paper is to study the clinical features of severe intoxications with thallium salts and developing effective care schemes for the application of potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) and deferasirox for correction of detected disorders. A total of 39 patients diagnosed with severe thallium salt poisoning were examined in two groups. Group I comprised 20 patients with severe thallium salt poisoning, who were prescribed with potassium-iron hexacyanoferrate in a dose of 250 mg/kg/day per os, intravenous potassium infusions, furosemide intravenously in amount of 40 mg three times per, and hemodialysis until the thallium level in the blood dropped below 10 mg/L, lactulose 30 mL two times per day per os. Group II consisted of 19 people with severe thallium salt poisoning, which in addition to the above treatment, received Deferasirox in a dosage of 500 mg two times per day per os. The clinical picture of severe poisoning with thallium salts is characterized by lesions of the gastrointestinal tract, nervous system (central and peripheral), alopecia, heart rhythm disorders, and myocardial ischemia zones. Extension of standard therapy with potassium-iron by adding hexacyanoferrate deferasirox showed better effect on thallium elimination rate and improved functional state of liver and kidneys in patients with severe thallium salt poisoning.

Postnatal growth failure (PGF) can impact the short- and long-term health outcomes in preterm infants. However, PGF rates vary according to the way it is defined and the growth chart used to monitor the postnatal growth. Fenton-2013 growth charts which suggest following intrauterine fetal growth compared to INTERGROWTH-21st, one specifically constructed for monitoring preterm extrauterine growth.

Exploratory study to determine the PGF definition at first per oral (PO) that is most predictive of adverse oral feeding-related outcomes in preterm infants.

Prospectively collected data of preterm infants 24-32weeks gestation, who were started on cue-based oral feeds at ≤34weeks gestation were reviewed. Anthropometric data at first PO (weight, length, and head circumference) were compared according to Fenton and INTERGROWTH-21st growth charts. PGF was defined either as <10th percentile,

-score change (ZSC) of ≥-1.5 from birth, or ZSC of ≥-2.0. Top-quartile (Q4) of feeding-related outcomes (days from firstdefinitions of PGF at first PO have only small to moderate predictive ability for adverse feeding-related outcomes in preterm infants.

The tested definitions of PGF at first PO have only small to moderate predictive ability for adverse feeding-related outcomes in preterm infants.

Bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) can be used to achieve peak inspiratory pressure and positive end-expiratory pressure to avoid alveolar collapse and improve oxygenation in preterm infants during the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), and there is an urgent demand for evaluating the effects and prognoses of these two ventilation modes.

We conducted a retrospective study on preterm infants (≤32 weeks and <2500 g) from March 2015 to March 2020 with BiPAP (

 = 63) and SIMV (

 = 63). The primary outcomes were successful treatment and weaning within 72 h, the demand for a second pulmonary surfactant supply and the need for a second respiratory support. The secondary outcome was the incidence of complications.

There were no significant differences (

 > .05) in the primary outcomes or the incidence of complications (pneumonia, apnea, respiratory failure, air leak syndrome, persistence of patent ductus arteriosus, neonatal sepsis, necrotizing enterocolitis, retinopathy of prematurity, and intraventricular hemorrhage). There were significant differences (

 < .05) in the incidence of pulmonary hemorrhage, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and IVH (≥grade II).

Although both BiPAP and SIMV achieved good early treatment outcomes of RDS in preterm infants, BiPAP support is recommended for reducing the incidence of pulmonary hemorrhage, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and IVH (≥grade II) if infants are tolerant. Attempts should be made to prevent these complications from happening with the use of SIMV support if infants are intolerant.

To assess the variations of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection treated with Tocilizumab (TCZ) alone or in association with hemoadsorption (HA).

Retrospective.

An Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admitting mechanically ventilated patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia.

Four adult patients.

We compared the blood values of IL-6, C-reactive protein (CRP) and of other biochemical variables including the PaO

/FiO

in two patients who received TCZ alone and in other 2 in whom it was associated with the HA (TCZ-HA) due to the presence of impending or established organ failures other than the lung. All variables were measured before, during and after the treatment.

In all patients, the IL-6 increased during the treatment; after its termination, its values sharply decreased only in those treated also with HA; conversely, the CRP decreased in all patients; the PaO

/FiO

increased in three patients and remained stable in the remaining one. see more Both the TCZ and the HA were well tolerated; all patipanel of inflammatory mediators.

Gastric cancer has a high mortality. MiR-150-5p and NR2F2 are related to gastric cancer and have a targeted relationship. Ultrasonic microbubble technology has a promising future for targeted gene therapy. Therefore, it will bring hope to the treatment of gastric cancer to reveal the mechanism of action of miR-150-5p targeting NR2F2 in gastric cancer and determine the efficiency of ultrasound microbubble-mediated transfection.

Ultrasound microbubble technology was adopted for gene transfection. The targeting relationship between miR-150-5p and NR2F2 was verified by dual luciferase experiment. MiR-150-5p level in gastric cancer tissue and cells was detected by qRT-PCR. MTT and flow cytometry were performed to detect cell viability and apoptosis, respectively. Transwell assay was performed to detect cell migration and invasion. QRT-PCR and Western blot were performed to detect the levels of NR2F2, Bcl-2, cleaved caspase-3, MMP-2 and MMP-9.

MiR-150-5p was downregulated in GC cells, which was related to clinical stage and lymph node metastasis.
