Background: Elobixibat is a locally acting ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT) inhibitor that relieves functional constipation in patients by accelerating colonic transit. In this study, we aimed at determining the efficacy and safety of elobixibat for short-term treatment (two weeks) of chronic constipation in Indian patients.
Methods: The present study was a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, phase III study to evaluate efficacy and safety of elobixibat.
A free calcium ion in the cytosol is essential for many physiological and physical functions. Also, it is known as a second messenger as the quantity of free calcium ions is an essential part of brain signaling. In this work, we have attempted to study calcium signaling in the presence of mitochondria, buffer, and endoplasmic reticulum fluxes.

The Kodaikanal Solar Observatory (KoSO) in India, houses one of the most prominent Ca ii K archives, spanning from 1904 to 2007, obtained under the same experimental conditions over a century, a feat very few other sites have achieved. However, the KoSO Ca ii K archive suffers from several inconsistencies (e.

Recently, there has been a heightened interest in understanding germline predisposition to hematological malignancies including MPN, including several reports of familial MPN. Here, we retrospectively analyzed medical records and data from genetic testing to describe twelve patients with germline variants at amino acid position 564 of JAK2.
