Eight undescribed steroidal alkaloid derivatives, including three cevanine-type isosteroidal alkaloids (two N-oxide glycosides and one D-ring aromatization) (1-3), one verazine-type steroidal alkaloid derivative (4), three solanidine-type steroidal alkaloid glycosides (5-7), and one veratramine-type analogue (8), along with three known compounds (9-11) were isolated from the bulbs of Fritillaria sinica. Their structures were elucidated by comprehensive analysis of spectroscopic data, acidic hydrolysis, and X-ray crystal diffractions. In the in vitro bioassay, the anti-cancer effect, anti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory activities for the isolates were evaluated at a concentration of 10 μM.

Acute pericarditis, the predominant pericardial disease, often lacks a clear etiology, with 15-30% of patients experiencing recurrence, rising to 20-50% in those with prior relapses. Autoimmune mechanisms significantly contribute to recurrence, with interleukin-1 identified as a pivotal inflammatory mediator. While NSAIDs, colchicine, and steroids remain staples for acute cases, the spotlight in recurrent pericarditis management has shifted toward immunosuppressive medications.

Background: Minimizing the duration of mechanical ventilation is one of the most important therapeutic goals during the care of preterm infants at neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The rate of extubation failure among preterm infants is between 16% and 40% worldwide. Numerous studies have been conducted on the assessment of extubation suitability, the optimal choice of respiratory support around extubation, and the effectiveness of medical interventions.

Nelumbo nucifera, an aquatic crop cultivated throughout Asian countries, belongs to the Nelumbonaceae family and has been widely used in traditional medicines with key pharmacological activities such as anti-viral, antipyretic, antioxidant, anti-steroid, anti-inflammatory, anti-arrhythmia, anti-obesity, and anti-aging properties. The present study aims to explore and assess the phytochemical composition, GC-MS profiling, antioxidant efficacy, and the major phytoconstituent phytol subjected to theoretical spectroscopic characterization using the DFT method. The phytochemical profiling of N.
