Growth hormone (GH) and lactic acid levels were measured in five normal males before, during and after two different types of exercise of nearly equal total duration and work expenditure. Exercise I (aerobic) consisted of continuous cycling at 100 W for 20 min. Exercise II (anaerobic) was intermittent cycling for one minute at 285 W followed by two minutes of rest, this cycle being repeated seven times. Significant differences (P less than 0.01) were observed in lactic acid levels at the end of exercise protocols (20 min) between the aerobic (I) and anaerobic (II) exercises (1.96 +/- 0.33 mM X 1(-1) vs 9.22 +/- 0.41 mM X 1(-1), respectively). GH levels were higher in anaerobic exercise (II) than in aerobic (I) at the end of the exercise (20 min) (2.65 +/- 0.95 micrograms X 1(-1) vs 0.8 +/- 0.4 micrograms X 1(-1); P less than 0.10) and into the recovery period (30 min) (7.25 +/- 6.20 micrograms X 1(-1) vs 2.5 +/- 2.9 micrograms X 1(-1); P less than 0.05, respectively).

Self-replicating RNA (srRNA) technology, in comparison to mRNA vaccines, has shown dose-sparing by approximately 10-fold and more durable immune responses. However, no improvements are observed in the adverse events profile. Here, we develop an srRNA vaccine platform with optimized non-coding regions and demonstrate immunogenicity and safety in preclinical and clinical development.

Objective: To evaluate descriptive efficacy data, exploratory immunogenicity data, and safety follow-up through study completion from the global, phase 3 MATISSE (Maternal Immunization Study for Safety and Efficacy) maternal vaccination trial of bivalent respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) prefusion F protein vaccine (RSVpreF).

Methods: MATISSE was a phase 3, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. Healthy pregnant participants aged 49 years or younger at 24-36 weeks of gestation were randomized (1:1) to receive a single RSVpreF 120 micrograms or placebo dose.

Article Synopsis
  • This study tested an ultra-low-dose estriol vaginal gel (0.005%) to see if it could prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in postmenopausal women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause.
  • The clinical trial involved 108 women who were divided into two groups: one received the estriol gel, while the other got a placebo gel, and they were monitored for 24 weeks.
  • Results showed a 26% lower rate of UTIs in the group using estriol compared to placebo, indicating the gel is both safe and effective in reducing UTI occurrences and improving vaginal health.

It has been suggested that the chelating agent 2-(2-(1-thiophene-2-yl) ethylidene) hydrazinyl) benzoic acid (TEHBA) be utilized to extract, separate and measure platinum(IV) by UV-visible spectrophotometry at the microgram level. Following 5 min of heating the reaction mixture in a water bath, Pt(IV)-TEHBA complex formed. This complex was formed in the presence of potassium iodide solution with a molar absorption coefficient 1.
