A method has been proposed to recognize and predict the range values of acute toxicity (LD50) and for this a system has been developed. The essence of the method is to gradually decrease the predictable toxicity ranges for the test substances in a stepwise manner while advancing within the formed predictive complexes. The transmission of information on the structure of compounds along this complex is determined by the preset logistic scheme along which narrower LD50 ranges are designated. The intervals are automatically set, by optimizing the recognition of the properties of compounds at the stage of formation of models (that recognize the set of signs). The predicting system includes two predicting complexes and contains a total of 30 mathematical models: for heterocyclic and carbocyclic compounds. Logistic schemes for passage of predictable compounds have been developed for each complex in accordance with the hierarchic organization of the elements that are constituents of the complex. The prediction significance is 70-90%.

Background: To investigate the toxicity of N-n-butyl haloperidol iodide (F2), a quaternary ammonium salt derivative of haloperidol, in mice for potential therapeutic purposes.
Methods: The acute median lethal dose (LD) of F2 was determined using the Bliss method following intravenous administration in mice. Routine surface electrocardiograms (ECGs) and arterial blood pressures (aBPs) were recorded under general anesthesia in untreated and pharmacologically vagotomized mice injected with F2.

Background: In sinonasal cancer (SNC), treatment with proton therapy (PT) provides excellent local control, especially after gross total resection. Because of the heterogeneity and rarity of this disease site, a comprehensive assessment of toxicity, survival, and control rates is lacking. Our primary objective was to assess the toxicity outcomes of PT in SNC patients, with a secondary aim of assessing survival and tumor control after PT.

Combination CD20-directed therapy plus PD-1 inhibition (PD-1i) increases T-cell tumor killing and NK-cell antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC). Mounting evidence supports immune-priming using PD-1i before cancer-directed agents.

The global prevalence and burden of anxiety disorders (ADs) are increasing. However, findings on the acute effects of air pollution on ADs remain inconclusive. We evaluated the effects of short-term exposure to ambient air pollutants, including fine particulate matter (PM), inhalable particulate matter (PM), nitrogen dioxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO), and ozone (O), on daily hospital visits for ADs.

Zinc sulphide is a widely used inorganic powder, and its production has reached quantities greater than 1000 t/year. Therefore, in accordance with OECD guideline 436, an acute inhalation test was implemented to provide more accurate data. This study is crucial for ensuring the safety of workers exposed to zinc sulphide dust and complying with regulatory requirements for REACH.
