Objective: The aim of the work was to develop and validate a simple, sensitive and selective Liquid chromatography with Mass spectroscopic method for simultaneous quantification of lidocaine and prilocaine in human plasma.
Design And Methods: Analytes and the internal standards from human plasma were extracted by using solid- phase extraction technique using Waters Oasis® HLB 1 cc (30 mg) cartridges. The reconstituted samples were chromatographed on Phenomenex Kinetex EVO 4.6*100 mm 2.6 μ 100A column by using a mixture of acetonitrile and 5 mM ammonium acetate buffer (80:20, v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min.
Results: The method was validated over the concentration range of 0.10-201.80 ng/mL for lidocaine and 0.10-201.66 ng/mL for prilocaine. The calibration curve obtained was linear.
Conclusion: Method validation was performed as per FDA guidelines and the results met the acceptance criteria. A run time of 3.0 min for each sample, make it possible to analyze more than 350 human plasma samples per day. The proposed method was found applicable for pharmacokinetic studies.

Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a gestational disorder that significantly endangers maternal and fetal health. Transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA)-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are important in the progression and diagnosis of various diseases. However, their role in the development of PE is unclear.

Background: The inheritance of the short allele, encoding the serotonin transporter (SERT) in humans, increases susceptibility to neuropsychiatric and metabolic disorders, with aging and female sex further exacerbating these conditions. Both central and peripheral mechanisms of the compromised serotonin (5-HT) system play crucial roles in this context. Previous studies on SERT-deficient (Sert) mice, which model human SERT deficiency, have demonstrated emotional and metabolic disturbances, exacerbated by exposure to a high-fat Western diet (WD).

Backgrounds: Memory and emotion are especially vulnerable to psychiatric disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which is linked to disruptions in serotonin (5-HT) metabolism. Over 90% of the 5-HT precursor tryptophan (Trp) is metabolized via the Trp-kynurenine (KYN) metabolic pathway, which generates a variety of bioactive molecules. Dysregulation of KYN metabolism, particularly low levels of kynurenic acid (KYNA), appears to be linked to neuropsychiatric disorders.

Diabetes is a chronic lifelong condition that requires consistent self-care and daily lifestyle adjustments. Effective disease management involves regular blood glucose monitoring and ongoing nursing support. Inadequate education and poor self-management are key factors contributing to increased mortality among diabetic individuals.

Pityriasis rosea (PR) is a self-limited exanthem associated with the endogenous systemic reactivation of human herpesvirus (HHV)-6 and HHV-7. The disease typically begins with a single erythematous patch on the trunk (herald patch), followed by a secondary eruption of smaller papulosquamous lesions. Rarely, the herald patch may be the only cutaneous manifestation of PR.
