Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to evaluate the use of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) for patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) in secondary hospitals in Shanghai.
  • The research involved 555 patients, predominantly elderly males, and highlighted that many suffered from respiratory acidosis; most were treated with bronchodilators and corticosteroids.
  • Results showed a high recovery rate of 94.6% but also pointed out significant issues with treatment standards, high hospital costs, and lengthy stays averaging 15.3 days.

Objective: To investigate the gene mutation occurved in AML patients with 29 kinds of fusion genes and 51 kinds of tumor gene.

Methods: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to detected the 49 kinds of targeted gene. FLT3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD), CALR, NPM1 and CEBPA mutation were detected by DNA-based PCR and Sanger sequencing.

The purpose of this study was examined the feasibility of using phytantriol-based cubic and hexagonal liquid crystal preparation for the percutaneous administration of trans‑cinnamaldehyde (TCA). TCA-loaded lyotropic liquid crystal formulations were prepared and characterized, their skin permeability in vitro and in vivo was evaluated. Preliminary pharmacodynamics were also investigated in adjuvant arthritics (AA) rats.

The main objective of this study was to develop reversed hexagonal (H) mesophase for transdermal delivery of methyl salicylate. The formulation was prepared, characterized and evaluated for its skin penetration in vitro and skin retention in vivo. Preliminary pharmacodynamics and skin irritation were also investigated.

Phytantriol (PT), ethanol (ET) and water were used to prepare in situ cubic liquid crystal (ISV2). The pseudo-ternary phase diagram of PT-ET-water was constructed and isotropic solution formulations were chosen for further optimization. The physicochemical properties of isotropic solution formulations were evaluated to optimize the composition of ISV2.
