The intension of this study was to examine the effect of dietary whey protein supplementation on the reproduction performance, growth performance and blood profile of sow and their offspring. From Day 114 of lactation to 21days of weaning, a total of 21sows (n=7/ treatment) (Landrace×Yorkshire) were blocked according to average parity (2.4) and allocated to 1 of 3 dietary treatments (i) CON-corn-soybean meal based basal diet, (ii) WPC-CON+0.047% WPC whey protein concentrate (WPC) and (iii) WPH-CON+0.02% whey protein hydrolysate (WPH).
The reproduction performance of sows was not affected by WPC or WPH supplementation. However, piglets that were born to WPC and WPH group sows showed higher body weight at birth (p=0.057) and at weaning (p=0.018). After farrowing, WPC and WPH group sows showed decreased (p=0.043) RBC count and total iron-binding count (TIBC) (p=0.046), whereas at the end of the experiment, the blood profile including red blood cells, iron, haemoglobulin and TIBC was significantly increased (p=0.042, 0.049, 0.051 and 0.052 respectively) in WPC group piglets compared to the CON and WPH groups.
Based on the positive impact on the blood profile of piglets, we conclude that whey protein supplement could serve as a potential energy source to suit lactating sows that could eventually benefit the performance of their offspring.

Hospitals quickly adapted perinatal care to mitigate SARS-CoV-2 transmission at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The objective of this study was to estimate the impact of pandemic-related hospital policy changes on perinatal care and outcomes in one region of the United States.
This interrupted time series analysis used retrospective data from consecutive singleton births at 15 hospitals in the Pacific Northwest from 2017 to 2020. The primary outcomes were those hypothesized to be affected by pandemic-related hospital policies and included labor induction, epidural use, oxytocin augmentation, mode of delivery, and early discharge (<48hours after cesarean and <24hours after vaginal births). Secondary outcomes included preterm birth, severe maternal morbidity, low 5-minute Apgar score, neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission, and 30-day readmission. Segmented Poisson regression models estimated the outcome level shift changes after the pandemic onset, controlling for underlying trends, seasonas may have implications beyond the pandemic and deserve further study.
The aims of this study are (i) to develop a population pharmacokinetic model of enzyme activity in Gaucher-type 1 (GD1) patients after intravenous administration of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), and (ii) to establish an exposure-efficacy relationship for bone marrow infiltration to propose dose adjustments according to patient covariate values.
A prospective follow-up, semi-experimental multi-centre study was conducted in four hospitals to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of ERT in GD1 patients. Twenty-five individuals with 266 glucocerebrosidase (GCase) observations in plasma and leukocytes and 14 individuals with 68 Spanish magnetic resonance imaging (S-MRI) observations were enrolled.

The information obtained from this study could be of high clinical relevance in individualization of ERT in GD1 patients, as this could lead to anticipative decision-making regarding clinical response in bone and optimal dosing strategy.The multifunctional radioligand [3 H]T0901317 ([3 H]1) has been employed as a powerful autoradiographic tool to target several receptors, such as liver X, farnesoid X, and retinoic acid-related orphan receptor alpha and gamma subtypes at nanomolar concentrations. Although [3 H]1 is commercially available and its synthesis via tritiodebromination has been reported, the market price of this radioligand and the laborious synthesis of corresponding bromo-intermediate potentially preclude its widespread use in biochemical, pharmacological, and pathological studies in research lab settings. We exploit recent reports on hydrogen-isotope exchange (HIE) reactions in tertiary benzenesulfonamides where the sulfonamide represents an ortho-directing group that facilitates CH activation in the presence of homogenous iridium(I) catalysts. Herein, we report a time- and cost-efficient method for the tritium late-stage labeling of compound 1-a remarkably electron-poor substrate owing to the tertiary trifluoroethylsulfonamide moiety. Under a straightforward HIE condition using a commercially available Kerr-type NHC Ir(I) complex, [(cod)Ir (NHC)Cl], the reaction with 1 afforded a specific activity of 10.8 Ci/mmol. Additionally, alternative HIE conditions using the heterogeneous catalyst of Ir-black provided sufficient 0.72 D-enrichment of 1 but unexpectedly failed while repeating with tritium gas.Normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a condition in which the ventricle is enlarged without elevated cerebrospinal fluid pressure, and it generally develops in later life and progresses slowly. A complete animal model that mimics human idiopathic NPH has not yet been established, and the onset mechanisms and detailed pathomechanisms of NPH are not fully understood. Here, we demonstrate a high spontaneous prevalence (34.6%) of hydrocephalus without clinical symptoms in inbred cotton rats (Sigmodon hispidus). In all 46 hydrocephalic cotton rats, the severity was mild or moderate and not severe. The dilation was limited to the lateral ventricles, and none of the hemorrhage, ventriculitis, meningitis, or tumor formation was found in hydrocephalic cotton rats. These findings indicate that the type of hydrocephalus in cotton rats is similar to that of communicating idiopathic NPH. Histopathological examinations revealed that the inner granular and pyramidal layers (layers IV and V) of the neocortex became thinner in hydrocephalic brains. A small number of pyramidal cells were positive for Fluoro-Jade C (a degenerating neuron marker) and ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba1)-immunoreactive microglia were in contact with the degenerating neurons in the hydrocephalic neocortex, suggesting that hydrocephalic cotton rats are more or less impaired projections from the neocortex. This study highlights cotton rats as a candidate for novel models to elucidate the pathomechanism of idiopathic NPH. Additionally, cotton rats have some noticeable systemic pathological phenotypes, such as chronic kidney disease and metabolic disorders. Thus, this model might also be useful for researching the comorbidities of NPH to other diseases.Paracetamol poisoning continues to be a worldwide problem and, despite the availability of an effective antidote, acetylcysteine (NAC), the optimal way to use this antidote, particularly following very large doses of paracetamol, has not been established. Recent case series have shown an increased toxicity from high doses of paracetamol, even in those receiving prompt NAC therapy, particularly in patients above the 300 mg/L nomogram treatment line. Clinical trial evidence supporting shorter NAC dosing now allows the possibility for intensifying treatment without the risk of very high rates of ADRs. New biomarkers also show the possibility of early identification of patients at risk of liver injury who might also benefit from increased intensity treatment. This article discusses these data and proposes a logical therapy for increasing NAC dosing which now requires clinical trial testing.Herein, a modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe (QuEChERS) method with multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) as a dispersive solid-phase extraction was developed for simultaneous determination of pinoxaden (PXD), cloquintocet-mexyl (CLM), clodinafop-propargyl ester (CPE) and its major metabolite (clodinafop, CP) in barley grass powder, barley grain, and soil using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). We found that MWCNT as an absorbent could improve the recoveries of the tested analytes, particularly CP, in complex matrices. Under the optimum conditions, the established MWCNT-modified QuEChERS coupled with LC-MS/MS method exhibited excellent linearity (R2 ) of ≥0.9912, low limits of detection (LODs) and quantification (LOQs) of 0.02-0.07 and 0.29-1.26 μg kg-1 , and acceptable recoveries of 80-130% with intra- and inter-day relative standard deviations (RSDs) less then 10.5%. No strong matrix effect (ME) has been observed on the respective samples. The method was successfully applied to monitor the tested analytes in the representative field incurred samples. Conclusively, the proposed method is sensitive and reliable and could be used to monitor the residues of PDX, CLM, CPE, and CP in complicated agro-products and soil matrices.
Our objectives were to perform a population pharmacokinetic analysis of dexmedetomidine in children using remnant specimens and electronic health records (EHRs) and explore the impact of patient's characteristics and pharmacogenetics on dexmedetomidine clearance.
Dexmedetomidine dosing and patient data were gathered from EHRs and combined with opportunistically sampled remnant specimens. Population pharmacokinetic models were developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modelling. Stage 1 developed a model without genotype variables; Stage 2 added pharmacogenetic effects.
Our final study population included 354 post-cardiac surgery patients aged 0-22 years (median 16 mo). The data were best described with a 2-compartment model with allometric scaling for weight and Hill maturation function for age. Population parameter estimates and 95% confidence intervals were 27.3L/h (24.0-31.1L/h) for total clearance, 161 L (139-187 L) for central compartment volume of distribution, 26.0L/h (22.5-30.0L/h) for intercompartmental clearance and 7903 L (5617-11 119 L) for peripheral compartment volume of distribution. The estimate for postmenstrual age when 50% of adult clearance is achieved was 42.0weeks (41.5-42.5weeks) and the Hill coefficient estimate was 7.04 (6.99-7.08). Genotype was not statistically or clinically significant.
Our study demonstrates the use of real-world EHR data and remnant specimens to perform a population pharmacokinetic analysis and investigate covariate effects in a large paediatric population. Weight and age were important predictors of clearance. We did not find evidence for pharmacogenetic effects of UGT1A4 or UGT2B10 genotype or CYP2A6 risk score.
