BRAF deletion in adult patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis correlates with multisystem disease and poor outcome.

Background: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare and highly heterogeneous histiocytosis. There are currently few studies examining the correlation between molecular profiling and clinical phenotype or outcome in adult patients with LCH. The objective of this study was to characterize the genomic landscape of adult LCH and correlate molecular findings with clinical features and patient outcomes.

Long-term follow-up of methotrexate and cytarabine in adult patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

The optimal treatment strategy for adult Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) remains unclear. Our previous study demonstrated the remarkable efficacy of combined methotrexate and cytarabine (Ara-C) [MA] therapy in patients newly diagnosed with LCH, with a median follow-up of 2 years. The present article reports long-term follow-up data spanning a median of 78 months (6.

Efficacy and safety of orelabrutinib in relapsed/refractory idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease: A single-centre, retrospective study.

Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a rare and heterogeneous lymphoproliferative disorder that lacks standardised treatment options for patients with refractory or relapsed (r/r) disease. Blocking Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for iMCD without depleting B cells. This single-centre, retrospective study enrolled 10 patients with r/r iMCD who were treated with orelabrutinib, a novel, next-generation BTK inhibitor.

In vitro antibacterial activity of danofloxacin against Escherichia coli isolated from pigeons and its pharmacokinetic in pigeons.

This experiment aimed to investigate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of danofloxacin against Escherichia coli (E. coli) isolated from pigeons, as well as the pharmacokinetics of danofloxacin in pigeons following oral (PO), intramuscular (IM), and intravenous (IV) administration. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of danofloxacin was first determined for 38 clinical E.

Palladium/Platinum/Ruthenium Trimetallic Dendritic Nanozymes Exhibiting Enhanced Peroxidase-like Activity for Signal Amplification of Lateral Flow Immunoassays.

Developing ultrasensitive lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) has garnered significant attention in the field of point-of-care testing. In this study, a trimetallic dendritic nanozyme (Pd@Pt-Ru) was synthesized through Ru deposition on a Pd@Pt core and utilized to enhancing the sensitivity of LFIAs. Pd@Pt-Ru exhibited a value of 5.

Research Note: Pharmacokinetics of bromhexine hydrochloride in broilers after single oral and intravenous administration.

The current study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics of bromhexine hydrochloride in broilers after single intravenous (IV) and oral (PO) administration at 2.5 mg/kg body weight (BW). The trial adopted a randomized, parallel-controlled design, where 20 twelve-wk-old broilers were randomly assigned to either the PO or IV group.

Sirolimus is effective for refractory/relapsed idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease: A single-center, retrospective study.

Refractory/relapsed idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (R/R iMCD) has limited treatment options. With studies showing increased mTOR activation in iMCD patients, sirolimus becomes an attractive and promising therapy for R/R iMCD. Here we report the results of a retrospective study involving 26 R/R iMCD patients treated with sirolimus-containing regimen.

Phase 2 study using low dose cytarabine for adult patients with newly diagnosed Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) lacks a standardized first-line therapy. This single-center, phase 2 prospective study (NCT04121819) enrolled 61 newly diagnosed adult LCH patients with multisystem or multifocal single system disease from October 2019 to June 2022. Subcutaneous cytarabine (100 mg/m2 for 5 days) was administered in 35-day cycles for 12 total cycles.

In vitro antibacterial activity of danofloxacin against Escherichia coli in Gushi chickens and its residue depletion following multiple oral administration.

This study aimed to investigate the in vitro antibacterial activity of danofloxacin against Escherichia coli isolated from Gushi chickens, as well as the tissue distribution and residue depletion of danofloxacin in Gushi chickens following multiple oral administration. A total of 42 clinical E. coli strains were isolated from the cloaca of locally farmed Gushi chickens between August and October 2023.

Nickel doping of ferrous disulfide nanocubes exhibits enhanced oxidase-like activity for In vitro detection of total antioxidant capacity.

The development of nanomaterials that mimic oxidase-like activities has recently attracted an increasing amount of attention. Obtaining highly active and cost-effective oxidase mimics has posed a significant challenge in this area of research. In this study, we successfully synthesized nickel-doped ferrous disulfide nanocubes (Ni-FeS) via a facile one-step method.

Clinical features, genomic profiling, and outcomes of adult patients with unifocal Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

Background: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare highly heterogeneous histiocytosis, which can be divided into single system and multiple system disease according to site of involvement. There is a paucity of studies examining unifocal LCH in adults in the molecular era.

Results: We retrospectively analysed records from 70 patients with unifocal LCH.

Depletion of tilmicosin residue in Gushi chickens following oral administration via drinking water.

This study aimed to examine the depletion of tilmicosin residues in Gushi chickens following the administration at a concentration of 75 mg/L in their drinking water for three consecutive days. Plasma, liver, kidney, lung, muscle, and skin + fat samples were collected from 6 chickens at 6 h, 1, 3, 5, and 7 days after the treatment. Tilmicosin concentrations in the samples were determined using a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method.

Pharmacokinetics of Danofloxacin in Gushi Chickens after Single Oral and Intravenous Administration.

This study aimed to determine the pharmacokinetics of danofloxacin in Gushi chickens after a single oral (PO) and intravenous (IV) dose at 5 mg/kg body weight (BW). Thirty-two Gushi chickens, aged 20 weeks, were selected and divided into two groups at random, with each group consisting of 16 chickens, evenly distributed between males and females. Following danofloxacin administration, blood samples were taken at predetermined time intervals and the plasma was separated.
