Pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of two formulations of the S-1 (tegafur/gimeracil/oxonate) capsule in Chinese cancer patients under fasting and fed conditions: a multicenter, randomized, open-label, single-dose, double-cycle crossover study.

Objective: S-1, an oral multicomponent capsule containing tegafur, gimeracil, and potassium oxonate, has demonstrated efficacy in various tumor types. This study aimed to assess the pharmacokinetics, bioequivalence (BE), and safety of a newly developed generic S-1 capsule compared to the original brand-name formulation in Chinese cancer patients under fasting and fed conditions.

Methods: A multicenter, randomized, open-label, single-dose, double-cycle crossover study was conducted in Chinese cancer patients.

Plasma reference interval of Trimethylamine-N-oxide in healthy adults: A multicenter study using Trimethylamine-N-oxide assay kit for analysis and validation.

Background: Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) is a potential cardiovascular biomarker in Chinese people without a defined plasma reference range. Its clinical application is restricted due to incomplete knowledge of pre-analytical factors' impact on measurement.

Methods: Assess the effects of standard anticoagulants and pre-analytical factors on TMAO test outcomes to determine optimal conditions.

[Identification of GSK3 family and regulatory effects of brassinolide on growth and development of Nardostachys jatamansi].

This study identified 8 members including NjBIN2 of the GSK3 family in Nardostachys jatamansi by bioinformatics analysis. Moreover, the phylogenetic tree revealed that the GKS3 family members of N. jatamansi had a close relationship with those of Arabidopsis.

Phosphorylation of cellulose synthases in plant responses to environmental changes.

Cellulose, synthesized by cellulose synthase (CESA) complexes, is an essential component of plant cell walls; defects in cellulose synthesis compromise cell wall integrity. The maintenance of this integrity is vital for plant growth, development, and stress responses. Consequently, plants must continuously synthesize and remodel their cell walls, a process intricately linked to cellulose biosynthesis.

Secular trends in the prevalence of schizophrenia among different age, period and cohort groups between 1990 and 2019.

Background: Schizophrenia remains a major public health challenge, and designing efforts to manage it requires understanding its prevalence over time at different geographic scales and population groups.

Methods: Drawing on data from the Global Burden of Disease study 2019, annual percentage change of schizophrenia was assessed across different age, period and cohort groups at different geographic scales from 1990 to 2019. We examined associations of prevalence with the sociodemographic index.

Analogy of silicon and boron in plant nutrition.

Silicon (Si) and boron (B) are a class of elements called metalloids, which have properties like metals and non-metals. Si is classified as a quasi-essential element, while B is a micronutrient element for plants. Nowadays, numerous discoveries have shown the analogy of silicon and boron in plant nutrition.

Bioequivalence of Blonanserin Tablets Under Fasting and Fed Conditions in Healthy Chinese Subjects.

Blonanserin is a novel oral antischizophrenic drug. Under fasting (n = 50) and fed (n = 60) conditions, this study compared the bioequivalence of the generic blonanserin tablet with the reference blonanserin tablet. In this single-center, randomized, open-label, 2-period, 2-sequence, crossover study, 110 patients were randomly given a 4-mg dose of either the test or reference blonanserin tablet with a 14-day washout period.

Research and Implementation of Mobile Internet Management Optimization and Intelligent Information System Based on Smart Decision.

The way by which artificial intelligence is implemented is similar to the thinking process of the human brain. People obtain information about external conditions through five senses, namely, vision, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, and, through the further processing of the brain, it forms meaningful decision-making elements. Then, through the process of analysis and reasoning, further decisions are made.
