The pharmacokinetics and metabolism of sulphadimidine (SDM) following intravenous administration of 100 mg/kg were studied in seven dwarf preruminant kids at 12 weeks of age, and again at the ruminant stage, when the animals were 18 weeks old. The persistence of SDM in 18-week-old kids was prolonged in comparison to the 12-week-old animals: a lower total body clearance and a prolonged elimination of SDM were obtained in the older animals. The renal clearance values of SDM and its metabolites were the same at both ages. The decrease of SDM clearance is related to the significant reduction in SDM hydroxylation at the older age. The reduced oxidative hepatic metabolism may result from the sexual maturation of the kids.

A high-fat meal significantly impacts the bioavailability and biphasic absorption of cannabidiol (CBD) from a CBD-rich extract in men and women.

Division of Human Nutrition and Health, Wageningen University, Stippeneng 4, 6708 WE, Wageningen, The Netherlands.
Cannabidiol (CBD), a specialized metabolite (phytocannabinoid) abundant in Cannabis sativa, is attracting increasing attention for its alleged health-promoting properties. The present study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics of CBD and its primary metabolite, 7-hydroxy-cannabidiol (7-OH-CBD), following a single oral dose of a CBD-rich Cannabis sativa extract, equivalent to 70 mg CBD, in healthy male (n=5) and female (n=6) participants. Using a randomized crossover design, the study evaluated the impact of a standardized high-fat meal compared to fasting on the oral bioavailability of CBD.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Xinbao pill (XBP) is a renowned Chinese patent medicine, primarily efficacious in warming and nourishing the heart and kidneys, supplementing Qi to boost Yang, and promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis. XBP has been utilized for the treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF) for nearly 30 years, but the lack of clarity regarding the active ingredients of XBP against CHF has hindered its clinical application and further promotion.
Aim Of The Study: To comprehensively elucidate the efficacy-specific ingredients and potential mechanism of XBP against CHF.
Developing Soluplus®-Based Microparticle Amorphous Solid Dispersions with High Drug Loading for Enhanced Celecoxib Dissolution via Electrospraying.
AAPS PharmSciTech

Laboratory of Advanced Theranostic Materials and Technology, Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ningbo, 315201, China.
Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) is one of the most studied strategies for improving the dissolution performance of poorly water-soluble drugs, but ASDs often have low drug loadings, thereby necessitating larger dosage sizes. This study intended to create Soluplus® (SOL)-based microparticle ASDs with high drug loading (up to 60 w/w%) and long-term stability (at least 16 months) using electrospraying to enhance the dissolution of poorly water-soluble celecoxib (CEL). X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses showed that the electrosprayed SOL-CEL microparticles were amorphous, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) data indicated the presence of hydrogen bonding between SOL and CEL in the microparticles, which helped stabilize the ASDs.

A middle childhood boy with epilepsy exhibited persistent low concentrations of valproic acid, lamotrigine and topiramate for over 1 month, primarily due to pharmacokinetic interactions involving fosphenytoin, meropenem and phenobarbital. Awareness of these clinically significant interactions is crucial for ensuring effective seizure control. However, further research is needed to establish optimal evidence-based treatment strategies in complex paediatric cases.

Article Synopsis
- The emergence of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology has transformed clinical diagnostics, providing extensive microbiome data for personalized medicine.
- Despite its potential, microbiome data's complexity and variability pose challenges for traditional statistical and machine learning approaches, including deep learning.
- The paper presents a novel feature engineering technique that combines two data feature sets, significantly improving the Deep Neural Network's performance in colorectal cancer detection, raising the Area Under the Curve (AUC) from 0.800 to 0.923, thus enhancing microbiome data analysis and disease detection capabilities.
