Extracellular fluid volume (EFV), total blood volume (TBV), and renal indices were determined in 53 permanent essential hypertensive patients with normal renal function and balanced sodium intake and urinary output. In comparison with normal subjects, hypertensives had normal EFV values while TBV and the TBV/EFV ratio were significantly reduced (p less than 0.001). In hypertensives, a significant negative relationship (r = -0.40; p less than 0.005) was observed between the TBV/EFV ratio and diastolic arterial pressure. No correlation existed between TBV and diastolic pressure, whereas EFV (and also interstitial fluid volume) was positively related to diastolic arterial pressure (r = +0.41; p less than 0.005). Extracellular fluid volume and interstitial fluid volume were both directly correlated to the renal filtration fraction (r = +0.45; p less than 0.005). The study suggests that, in the disturbed partition of the extracellular fluid of hypertensives, changes in the interstitial space are involved and are related to variations in the renal indices.

Eye Movements and the Intraorbital Subarachnoid Space: Potential Contribution of Altered Cerebrospinal Fluid Pumping in Optic Neuropathies.
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, University of California, Los Angeles, California, United States.
Purpose: The optic nerve (ON) is mechanically perturbed by eye movements that shift cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within its surrounding dural sheath. This study compared changes in ON length and CSF volume within the intraorbital ON sheath caused by eye movements in healthy subjects and patients with optic neuropathies.
Methods: Twenty-one healthy controls were compared with 11 patients having primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) at normal intraocular pressure (IOP), and 11 with chronic non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION).
Rat models of postintracerebral hemorrhage pneumonia induced by nasal inoculation with or intratracheal inoculation with LPS.

State Key Laboratory of Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome, Department of Neurology, Guangdong Provincial Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Guangzhou, China.
Background: A stable and reproducible experimental bacterial pneumonia model postintracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is necessary to help investigating the pathogenesis and novel treatments of Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP).
Aim: To establish a Gram-negative bacterial pneumonia-complicating ICH rat model and an acute lung injury (ALI)-complicating ICH rat model.
Methods: We established two standardized models of post-ICH pneumonia by nasal inoculation with () or intratracheal inoculation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
A Study of the Comparison Between Preoperative Ultrasonography Findings With Intraoperative Observations in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.
Cureus
December 2024
General Surgery, Dr. Dnyandeo Yashwantrao Patil Medical College, Hospital and Research Centre, Dr. Dnyandeo Yashwantrao Patil Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University), Pune, IND.
Aim: This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of ultrasonography (US) by comparing preoperative ultrasonographic findings with intraoperative observations during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).
Materials And Methods: An observational analytical study was conducted at a tertiary hospital in Pune over two years and included 98 patients aged 20-80 with symptomatic cholelithiasis confirmed by US. Preoperative parameters assessed included gallstone number, gallbladder volume, wall thickness, and pericholecystic fluid.
Neurofilament heavy chain in secondary progressive multiple sclerosis.
Mult Scler
January 2025
Blizard Institute, Barts and The London, London, UK.
Background: Biomarkers are needed to track progression in MS trials. Neurofilament heavy chain (NfH) has been underutilized due to assay limitations.
Objective: To investigate the added value of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NfH in secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) using contemporary immunoassays.
Design and Process Considerations for Preparation of Modified Release Ivermectin and Praziquantel Tablets by Wet Granulation.
AAPS PharmSciTech
January 2025
University of Maryland, School of Pharmacy, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 20 N Pine Street, Baltimore, Maryland, 21201, USA.
Dosage forms containing Ivermectin (IVER) and Praziquantel (PRAZ) are important combination drug products in animal health. Understanding the relationship between products with differing in vitro release characteristics and bioequivalence could facilitate generics. The goal of this study was to create granulations for each active ingredient, with similar release mechanisms, but substantially different in vitro release rates, and then compressing these granulations into tablets with differing release rates.
