Four ecofriendly spectrophotometric methods for the determination of perindopril through derivatization with sulphophtalein dyes: application to tablet analysis.

Nowadays, there is a need to expand the bank of spectrophotometric methods for the determination of perindopril in dosage forms for the purposes of routine pharmaceutical analysis, which would be simple, express, «green» and inexpensive. In the present work, perindopril in tablets was quantified via a direct simple, «green», and non-extracting spectrophotometric approach based on the formation of ion-pair complexes with sulphophtalein dyes. The absorbances of the colored reaction products were registered at 405 nm (bromocresol green, BCG), 397 nm (bromocresol purple, BCP, and bromothymol blue, BTB) and 598 nm (bromophenol blue, BPB).

Central nervous system manifestations in rheumatic diseases.

As the role of neurologists in managing patients with rheumatic diseases expands, collaboration between rheumatologists and neurologists becomes increasingly vital. This literature review provides an overview of the central nervous system (CNS) manifestations of major autoimmune rheumatic disorders, which may include parenchymal brain and meningeal disease (stroke, meningoencephalitis, meningitis), myelopathies, psychosis, chorea, seizure disorders, and various forms of cephalea. Novel findings linking specific autoimmune markers to CNS damage reveal a direct, previously underestimated link between systemic inflammation and neural injury.

Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic possibilities of short-chain fatty acids in posttraumatic stress disorder patients: a mini-review.

This mini-review explores the role of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Highlighting the microbiota-gut-brain axis, this study investigated the bidirectional communication between the gut microbiome and mental health. SCFAs, byproducts of gut microbial fermentation, have been examined for their potential impact on PTSD, with a focus on molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions.

COVID-19-associated encephalopathy: connection between neuroinflammation and microbiota-gut-brain axis.

While neurological complications of COVID-19, such as encephalopathy, are relatively rare, their potential significant impact on long-term morbidity is substantial, especially given the large number of infected patients. Two proposed hypotheses for the pathogenesis of this condition are hypoxia and the uncontrolled release of proinflammatory cytokines. The gut microbiota plays an important role in regulating immune homeostasis and overall gut health, including its effects on brain health through various pathways collectively termed the gut-brain axis.
