The activity of the substituted benzamide renzapride on the upper gastrointestinal tract has been investigated. It has been shown to enhance stomach emptying in normal subjects; doses of 2 and 5 mg decreasing by 21 and 37% respectively the volume of gastric contents aspirated 80 min after a test meal. Renzapride was found to reduce the oro-caecal transit time as assessed by the lactulose/breath hydrogen method in a dose related manner from 0.2 to 5 mg; the later dose producing a 62% reduction. Finally renzapride was shown not to elevate plasma prolactin at a dose of 5 mg, a finding consistent with lack of dopamine receptor antagonism.

Background: Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are fundamental to evidence-based medicine, but their real-world impact on clinical practice often remains unmonitored. Leveraging large-scale real-world data can enable systematic monitoring of RCT effects. We aimed to develop a reproducible framework using real-world data to assess how major RCTs influence medical practice, using two pivotal surgical RCTs in gynaecologic oncology as an example-the LACC (Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer) and LION (Lymphadenectomy in Ovarian Neoplasms) trials.

Blood carries some of the most valuable biomarkers for disease screening as it interacts with various tissues and organs in the body. Human blood serum is a reservoir of high molecular weight fraction (HMWF) and low molecular weight fraction (LMWF) proteins. The LMWF proteins are considered disease marker proteins and are often suppressed by HMWF proteins during analysis.

Probiotics have shown efficacy in preventing and reducing infections caused by common viruses, including rotavirus, norovirus, hepatitis, human papillomavirus (HPV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and herpes simplex virus (HSV). A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-arm parallel-group study was conducted on 56 patients with moderate COVID-19 symptoms. Patients were randomly assigned to one of the three groups: standard treatment combined with UBBC-07, standard treatment combined with Unique IS-2, or standard treatment with a placebo.
