Background: Fluticasone propionate is a synthetic trifluoro-substituted glucocorticoid, a highly selective glucocorticoid receptor agonist. Fluticasone propionate nebuliser suspensions is an inhaled corticosteroid with the low systemic bioavailability which provides a low risk (benefit outcome without the adverse effects that accompany systemically administered corticosteroids), referred as a first-line preventive agent for patients with persistent asthma. China has become one of the countries with the highest asthma mortality rate in the world in the past years.

To investigate the effect of different platelet (PLT) counts on the safety and efficacy of the double-plasma molecular absorption system (DPMAS) in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). A total of 156 patients with ACLF receiving DPMAS were divided into the observed group (40 × 10/L ≤ PLT < 50 × 10/L) and the control group (PLT ≥ 50 × 10/L) according to PLT count level. The safety and efficacy indices of bleeding-related complications, PLT reduction rate, total bilirubin (TBIL) reduction rate, and 28-days survival rate after DPMAS were analyzed and compared between the two groups.

Purpose: Recent studies have shown that late-onset epilepsy (LOE) is accompanied with cognitive decline and increased risk of dementia, particularly Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the pathophysiological mechanism underlying the cognitive decline in LOE remains unclear. The aim of current study was to evaluate the relationship between glymphatic system (GS) function and cognitive decline in LOE patients using the diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS).
