Reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography was used to detect 11 preservatives including bronopol, esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA) in cosmetics. Zorbax C8 column was used and mobile phase was V (0.05 mol/L NaH2PO4):V(methyl alcohol):V(acetonitrile) = 50:35:15 with addition of hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (2 mmol/L) and the pH adjusted to 3.5 by using phosphoric acid. The wavelength 254 nm was selected for detection. Samples were extracted with methanol by ultrasonic method. The recoveries were 85%-107% and the relative standard deviations were 2.2%-7.5%.

Background and aim The study aimed to investigate the effect of adding perineural adjuvants, clonidine and dexamethasone, to local anesthetic in Superficial Parasternal Intercostal Plane (SPIP) blocks. It was designed as a prospective, randomized, triple-blinded, feasibility trial, conducted at a single-center university hospital. The participants included adult patients who were undergoing cardiac surgery via median sternotomy.

Contact allergy (CA) is a frequent condition in children; however, newer estimates of the prevalence of CA in children are lacking. Herein, we aim to provide an estimate of the prevalence of CA in children from 2010 to 2024. Two authors independently searched PubMed, Embase and Web of Science for studies reporting the prevalence of positive patch tests (PPTs) to allergens in populations including ≥ 100 children (< 18 years).

The gut microbiota is unanimously acknowledged as playing a central role in human health, notably through the production of various metabolites, including short-chain fatty acids, secondary bile acids, vitamins or neurotransmitters. Beyond contributing to gut health itself, these microbial metabolites significantly impact multiple organ systems by participating in key signaling pathways along the well documented gut-organ axes. Chemicals ingested through food might interact with our gut microbiota, altering metabolites production with consequences on health.
