Article Synopsis
  • Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is prevalent among women post-birth, affecting 40-60%, and often involves issues that can't be corrected without addressing connected defects like perineal body incompetency.
  • A clinical trial will involve 310 women, dividing them into two groups: one receiving standard procedures and the other receiving those plus perineoplasty.
  • The study aims to determine if adding perineoplasty improves the outcomes of pelvic organ prolapse surgery, as past research hasn't conclusively shown its effectiveness in preventing recurrence.

The efficiency of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) inhibition by sulfated polysaccharides isolated from the various families of red algae of the Far East Pacific coast were studied. The anti-HIV-1 activity of kappa and lambda-carrageenans from , original highly sulfated X-carrageenan with low content of 3,6-anhydrogalactose from and i/κ-carrageenan with hybrid structure isolated from was found. The antiviral action of these polysaccharides and its low-weight oligosaccharide was compared with commercial κ-carrageenan.

New insights into the structure of the hybrid κ/β-carrageenan (κ/β-CRG) of the red alga have been obtained. Carrageenan oligosaccharides were prepared through the chemical and enzymatic depolymerization of κ/β-CRG with κ-carrageenase and its the enzyme-resistant fraction. The composition and distribution of the repetition units of κ/β- CRG were investigated by using the negative ion tandem MALDI-TOFMS and ESIMS method, which made it possible to prove and characterize the hybrid structure of this polysaccharide.
