Chromatographic authentication of botanical origin: Herbaceous pollen profiling with HPLC, HPTLC and GC-MS analysis.

This study describes a robust chromatographic authentication methodology for herbaceous pollen, employing gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and high-performance thin liquid chromatography (HPTLC) protocols. The comprehensive profiling of organic compounds not only distinguishes between different botanical sources but also establishes a reliable framework for quality control and assessment of herbaceous pollen authenticity. Traces of quercetin were detectable using HPTLC in Chaenomeles japonica, and the composition of the mobile phase led to distinct phenolic acid tracks in the extracts of free phenolic compounds.

Future direction of substrate-based catheter ablation in Brugada syndrome and other inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Inherited Primary Arrhythmias Syndromes (IPAS), especially Brugada syndrome (BrS), have been associated with arrhythmogenic substrates that can be targeted through ablation. This meta-analysis evaluated the outcomes of catheter ablation (CA) in different types of IPAS based on procedural guidance and location.

Methods: A systematic search was conducted across multiple databases to identify studies reporting on ventricular arrhythmia (VA) events before and after CA in IPAS, including BrS, Long-QT syndrome (LQTS), Early repolarization syndrome (ERS), and Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF).

Evaluation and Management of Chronic Cholestatic Liver Diseases.

Cholestasis is defined as stagnation or a marked reduction in bile secretion and flow. Cholestatic jaundice can thus be classified as intrahepatic or extrahepatic cholestatic, depending on the level of obstruction to bile flow. It is important to recognize the complications of cholestatic in patients with chronic cholestatic liver disease.

Efficacy of probiotics in the treatment of minimal hepatic encephalopathy: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Aim Of The Study: Patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) have no recognizable clinical symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), but the mild cognitive and psychomotor deficits have been shown to negatively affect their daily functioning and quality of life. Treatment with probiotics has shown benefit in some clinical trials. This review aimed to systematically analyze the efficacy of probiotics in the treatment of MHE.

Diabetes and fatty liver: Involvement of incretin and its benefit for fatty liver management.

Fatty liver disease is defined as liver condition characterized by hepatic steatosis, closely related to pathological conditions in type 2 diabetes and obesity. The high prevalence of fatty liver disease in obese patients with type 2 diabetes reached 70%, reflecting the importance of these conditions with fatty liver. Although the exact pathological mechanism of fatty liver disease, specifically non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remains not completely revealed, insulin resistance is suggested as the major mechanism that bridged the development of NAFLD.
