Efficacy and safety of edaravone dexborneol in acute ischemic stroke: systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Introduction: Stroke is a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) accounting for most cases. Despite advancements in reperfusion therapies, many patients do not achieve sufficient reperfusion, necessitating effective neuroprotective interventions. This meta-analysis evaluates the efficacy and safety of Edaravone Dexborneol (ED) compared to standard therapies in AIS treatment.

Efficacy of botanical extracts from Callitris glaucophylla, against Aedes aegypti and Culex annulirostris mosquitoes.

Using standard WHO methodology, this study investigated the susceptibility of 4(th) instar Aedes aegypti (L) and Culex annulirostris (Skuse) larvae to three extracts from Callitris glaucophylla (J. Thompson & L. Johnson) (1: steam distillation extract, 2: liquefied refrigerant gas extract, and 3: methanol reflux extract), lambda-cyhalothrin (a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide) and fenitrothion (an organophosphorous insecticide).
