Background: Death in the early phase of trauma is primarily attributable to uncontrolled bleeding exacerbated by trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC). A comprehensive synthesis of the available evidence on interventions for TIC is needed.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of blood component products and tranexamic acid administrations for severe trauma patients with TIC.
Background: Addressing the limited access to treatments for alcohol dependence, we developed ALM-002, a therapeutic application to be "prescribed" for non-abstinence-oriented treatment in internal medicine settings. Our objective was to preliminarily assess the efficacy and safety of ALM-002.
Methods: In a multicenter, open-label randomized controlled trial, participants aged ≥20 with alcohol dependence and daily alcohol consumption exceeding 60 g for men and 40 g for women, without severe complications, were randomly assigned to either the intervention group using ALM-002 or the treatment-as-usual control group.
A 3.5-Mb microdeletion in Xq22 was identified in a female patient with early-onset neurological disease trait (EONDT). The patient exhibited developmental delay but no hypomyelination despite PLP1 involvement in the deletion.

A Cr-salen complex catalyzed the dimerization of hydroxystilbenoids in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol to form compounds comprising a natural product-like scaffold (quadrangularin) or its precursor depending on the aromatic substituents. The addition of a catalytic amount of scandium triflate [Sc(OTf)] to the reaction system altered the reaction outcome to give a different natural product-like compound, a pallidol-type dimer.
