- The study examined the effectiveness of polymyxin B-immobilized fiber column direct hemoperfusion (PMX-DHP) in patients with surgically treated perforated colorectal diverticula, finding that the overall prognosis is poor.
- Analysis of 46 patients revealed that those in the mortality group had significant preoperative risk factors, including antithrombotic drug use and elevated lactate levels, associated with higher chances of post-surgery mortality.
- PMX-DHP was more frequently used in patients with severe conditions, but it did not improve outcomes, indicating its limited efficacy for those severely affected.
A comparative evaluation of the brand-name drug Mycospor and six generic drugs (IWAKI, Bifonol, F, YD, Sawai, and TEVA), all comprising a cream formulation containing the antifungal drug bifonazole, was performed based on physicochemical measurements. The pH of the various formulations was significantly higher for the generics Bifonol (pH 7.1), Sawai (pH 6.

Employing the Fukui-Hatsugai-Suzuki method, we found that ferromagnetic monolayersBr(= Pd, Pt) possessed the quantized anomalous Hall conductivity (QAHC) with and without carrier doping. Due to unique QAHC, their transverse thermoelectric properties ofBr(= Pd, Pt) were investigated.

- Senility has emerged as the third leading cause of death in Japan, accounting for 11.4% of total deaths in 2022, showing a concerning rise compared to the decline observed from 1950 to 2000.
- The way senility is recorded on death certificates is often vague, with 93.8% listing only "senility," requiring a more standardized process for accurate documentation.
- Although many prefer to die peacefully without invasive procedures, there is a growing need to recognize and appropriately classify senility as a legitimate cause of death in older adults.
The effects of acute intratracheal administration of electrolyzed reduced water (ERW; alkaline electrolyzed water) were investigated in rats. In this study, no deaths or near-deaths were recorded in either group, namely those treated with ERW or purified water (maximum doses of 900 mg/kg). The main symptoms observed in the rats were decreased spontaneous movements and abnormal breath sounds, which were considered to be transient symptoms caused by intratracheal administration.
