Tranexamic acid is a fibrinolysis suppressor that is used for a variety of bleeding control procedures such as hematuria, surgery bleeding, and trauma caused bleeding. The advantages of using the tranexamic acid are bleeding control and less need for blood transfusion.
This double blind clinical trial was conducted on 108 patients in Imam Khomeni Hospital, Urmia, Iran 2013-14. The control and intervention groups consisted of 54 randomly selected participants each. The intervention group received 1gr of intravenous tranexamic acid with initiation of surgery and 500mg orally each 8hrs afterwards up to three days. The control group received placebo capsules containing starch of the same form.
The mean term of hospitalization in the intervention group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (P<0.001). The difference between the two groups in terms of preoperative hemoglobin was not significant. However, the decrease in postoperative hemoglobin, intraoperative hemoglobin count in washing liquid, and hemoglobin count in the intervention group were significantly different from those of the control group (P<0.001).
The findings showed that tranexamic acid decreased bleeding during PCNL and the need for blood transfusion. It also decreased the hospitalization term.

Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) is the most common problem of the referral children to the pediatric urology clinics. If this condition does not treat early in life, it will be a lifelong problem. During recent decades, electrical stimulation therapy has been expanded and extensively used for the treatment of LUTD in both adults and children. The aim of this review is to suggest clinicians an updated understanding of effects of interferential (IF) electrical stimulation therapy in management of LUTD in children.
The search was performed in databases of Medline, PubMed, Google Scholar, ,and Scopus for information about IF electrical stimulation and its application using search words such as " IF electrical stimulation", "transcutaneous IF electrical stimulation" , "IF therapy " , " electrical stimulation", "voiding dysfunction" , " LUTD", " urinary incontinence" and " children". As this review focuses on the answer of this question "Does transcutaneous IF electrical stimulation has effect on management of LUTD in children?" we included the reference list of articles identified by this search strategy and selected those we judged relevant according to our keywords. Clinical trial studies that publishing in English were included. Categorical data were reported as frequencies and percentages.
Eleven studies were included in this review. The success rate of IF therapy in these studies has been reported from 61% to 90% of children with LUTD and urinary incontinence.
IF electrical stimulation is an effective, safe and reproducible option to manage LUTD and urinary incontinence in children.

However, knowledge about circRNAs in NSCLC development is far from satisfactory. In this study, we aimed to provide a novel insight into the circRIP2 in NSCLC development. We used NSCLC tissues, as well as cell lines to elucidate the expression and location of circRIP2 in NSCLC. We also established the circRIP2 overexpression cells A549-circRIP2 and repression cells HCC827-shcircRIP2 for further functional and mechanism studies. The pro-tumorigenic role of circRIP2 was tested by using CCK-8, BrdU and transwell assays. The interaction between circRIP2 and miR-671-5p were validated by luciferase reporter assay, RIP assay, as well as RNA pull down assay. We showed circRIP2 is differentially expressed NSCLC, and acted as a predictor for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). ALK signaling pathway CircRIP2 promoted NSCLC progression by acting as a miRNA sponge for miR-671-5p, thus facilitating its target gene FOXM1 expression. Targeting circRIP2 could be potentially beneficial for NSCLC patients in the future.
Evaluate suicide attempt prevalence and potentially related sociodemographic and psychiatric factors among racial and ethnic groups.
Between 2012 and 2013, the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions-III (NESARC-III) conducted semi-structured interviews with 36,309 adults in the USA. We identified lifetime suicide attempt prevalence and significant predictors for each racial/ethnic group using stratified logistic regressions. Analyses were exploratory without a priori hypotheses.
Asian/Native Hawaiian/other Pacific Islander and Black individuals had the lowest prevalence of suicide attempts while Alaska Native/American Indian and White individuals had the highest prevalence. Identifying as female and meeting criteria for psychiatric diagnoses featuring mood regulation difficulties (depression, borderline personality disorder, bipolar I disorder) were consistently related to a suicide attempt history across racial and ethnic groups, whereas substance abuse disorders and other socie to appreciate experiences related to race and ethnicity may adversely impact suicide risk assessment and treatment, ultimately contributing to health disparities. Results suggest that additional research is warranted.There is evidence that during the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase in anxiety and depression rates among college students. However, little is known about how generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) developed among individuals of different race/skin color. This study aimed to determine whether there are racial differences in GAD in Brazilian university students during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a nationwide cross-sectional study, carried out through the application of online questionnaires to university students from 94 Brazilian universities. Self-reported data on age, sex, economic class, race/skin color, anthropometric data, and adherence to social distancing measures were collected. To determine the GAD, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale was applied. A total of 5879 participants were included, with a mean age of 24.1 ± 6.4 years, and the majority were female (n = 4324, 73.5%), most self-declared to be whites (n = 2945, 50.1%), followed by browns (n = 2185, 37.2%) and blacks (n = 749, 12.
