Insights into the Physicochemical Characteristics and Miscibility of Chitosan/Polypeptide Blends: Promising Material for Wound Healing in Sprague-Dawley Rats.

In this study, the synthesis of poly(AVGVP) [where A-Alanine, V-Valine, G-Glycine, and P-Proline] is executed by the stepwise solution phase method. The interaction between Chitosan and synthetic polypentapeptide in blends was examined in the liquid and solid phases. Viscosity criteria that establish the total miscibility with Chitosan are the Δ[η], the intrinsic viscosity [η], Huggins coefficient [], by Garcia Δ, α by Sun, and μ suggested by Chee, Δ, and β buttressed by Jiang and Han.

Study of pattern & distribution of adverse drug reactions in acute coronary syndrome patients in a tertiary care hospital.

Background & Objectives: With the availability of a wide range of drugs to treat patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), adverse drug reactions (ADRs) have become inevitable in clinical practice. Thorough knowledge of such reactions is essential for the treating physician for optimal treatment and better outcomes. There are many scales to define, measure and assess the ADRs, but there is a dearth of data available on such drug reactions among ACS patients.

Recent Investigations on Neurotransmitters' Role in Acute White Matter Injury of Perinatal Glia and Pharmacotherapies-Glia Dynamics in Stem Cell Therapy.

Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) and cerebral palsy are two neurological disease conditions developed from the premyelinated white matter ischemic injury (WMI). The significant pathophysiology of these diseases is accompanied by the cognitive deficits due to the loss of function of glial cells and axons. White matter makes up 50% of the brain volume consisting of myelinated and non-myelinated axons, glia, blood vessels, optic nerves, and corpus callosum.
