Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use in elite sport is high, with football being no exception. Increased awareness of significant adverse drug reactions from published research and retired players commentary in the media have made the topic mainstream. Despite this increased awareness, usage rates show no sign of significantly reducing. Footballers, like all elite athletes are focused on maximising their performance and potential - even at the expense of their long-term health. An educational intervention prior to the 2010 FIFA Men's World Cup aimed at reducing rates was ineffective, suggesting that education alone is not the answer. Our author group propose a 'safer use' rather than 'no use' of NSAIDs in football. A 'Keeping SCORE' approach is suggested, designed as a prescribing aid. The approach guides medical staff towards focusing on Safety checks, Clinical indication/judgement, Open dialogue, Recording, and Evaluation.

Drug delivery vehicles optimize therapeutic outcomes by enhancing drug efficacy, minimizing side effects, and providing controlled release. Injectable hydrogels supersede conventional ones in the field of drug delivery owing to their less invasive administration and improved targeting. However, they face challenges such as low biodegradability and biocompatibility, potentially compromising their effectiveness.

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), asthma, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD) frequently coexist, forming a complex multimorbid condition often referred to as "global airway disease." This concept reflects shared pathophysiological mechanisms of eosinophilic inflammation and underscores the need for integrated treatment strategies targeting both upper and lower airway manifestations (1). The burden of severe CRSwNP, asthma, and N-ERD is substantial, particularly in terms of reduced quality of life, recurrent exacerbations, revision endoscopic sinus surgeries (ESS), and healthcare utilization (2).

Background: Using an analogue-based drug design approach, a number of novel 2-substituted-1,3-thiazolone derivatives (3-10) have been produced and given permission to proceed for their anti-inflammatory properties. In the present paper, the new thiazole derivatives were designed, synthesized, and tested for their alpha-glucosidase, alpha-amylase, and COX-inhibitory activities. Approving the anti-diabetic activity.

Sulfasalazine is a non-specific immunomodulator with haemolytic anaemia as a known side effect that crosses the placenta. We present a preterm neonate with cardiac arrhythmia secondary to hyperkalaemia in the setting of maternal sulfasalazine therapy. A preterm infant was born to a mother taking hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine, aspirin and enoxaparin throughout pregnancy.

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) has emerged as a crucial target for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis, a condition characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components leading to impaired liver function. Activation of VDR has been shown to inhibit the transformation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), which play a key role in the development of liver fibrosis, thus reducing ECM production. In this study, a series of 37 non-steroidal VDR agonists with novel scaffold were designed and synthesized utilizing the scaffold hopping strategy.
