There are reports from the disability community in England and elsewhere that measures taken to contain the spread of COVID-19 impact negatively on their human rights and experiences. #link# This commentary focuses on the healthcare and social care systems in England and describes how laws and practices have changed under the COVID-19 pandemic, and how these changes affect the rights of disabled people.
Clostridioides difficile infection is the most common cause of healthcare-associated infections in the USA, with limited treatment options. Ibezapolstat is a novel DNA polymerase IIIC inhibitor with in vitro activity against C. difficile.

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ibezapolstat in healthy volunteers. Microbiome changes associated with ibezapolstat were compared with vancomycin over a 10 day course using shotgun metagenomics.

A total of 62 subjects aged 31 ± 7 years (45% female; average BMI 25 ± 3 kg/m2) were randomized. Ibezapolstat was well tolerated with a safety signal similar to placebo. Ibezapolstat had minimal systemic absorption with the majority of plasma concentrations less than 1 µg/mL. In the multiday, ascending dose study, ibezapolstat concentrations of 2000 µg/g of stool were observed by Day 2 and for the remainder of the dosing time period. In the multiday, multiple-dose arm, baseline microbiota was comparabifficile infection.
High-throughput screening (HTS) and virtual screening (VS) have been widely used to identify potential hits from large chemical libraries. However, the frequent occurrence of 'noisy compounds' in the screened libraries, such as compounds with poor drug-likeness, poor selectivity or potential toxicity, has greatly weakened the enrichment capability of HTS and VS campaigns. Therefore, check details of comprehensive and credible tools to detect noisy compounds from chemical libraries is urgently needed in early stages of drug discovery.

In this study, we developed a freely available integrated python library for negative design, called Scopy, which supports the functions of data preparation, calculation of descriptors, scaffolds and screening filters, and data visualization. The current version of Scopy can calculate 39 basic molecular properties, 3 comprehensive molecular evaluation scores, 2 types of molecular scaffolds, 6 types of substructure descriptors and 2 types of fingerprints. A number of importage to filter out compounds with undesirable properties or substructures, which will benefit the design of high-quality chemical libraries for drug design and discovery.

It upheld the traditional rule that a defendant is not vicariously liable for the torts of independent contractors. This commentary examines the law on liability for independent contractors and considers whether the Supreme Court decision is consistent with modern employment trends. The implications of the decision for medical law are then discussed.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a key risk factor for chronic kidney disease in the general population, but has not been investigated in detail among renal transplant recipients (RTRs). We investigated the incidence, severity and risk factors for AKI following cardiac surgery among RTRs compared with non-RTRs with otherwise similar clinical characteristics.

We conducted a retrospective cohort study of RTRs (n = 83) and non-RTRs (n = 83) who underwent cardiac surgery at two major academic medical centers. Non-RTRs were matched 11 to RTRs by age, preoperative (preop) estimated glomerular filtration rate and type of cardiac surgery. We defined AKI according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria.

RTRs had a higher rate of AKI following cardiac surgery compared with non-RTRs [46% versus 28%; adjusted odds ratio 2.77 (95% confidence interval 1.36-5.64)]. Among RTRs, deceased donor (DD) versus living donor (LD) status, as well as higher versus lower preop calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) trough levels, were associated with higher rates of AKI (57% versus 33% among DD-RTRs versus LD-RTRs; P = 0.047; 73% versus 36% among RTRs with higher versus lower CNI trough levels, P = 0.02). The combination of both risk factors (DD status and higher CNI trough level) had an additive effect (88% AKI incidence among patients with both risk factors versus 25% incidence among RTRs with neither risk factor, P = 0.004).

RTRs have a higher risk of AKI following cardiac surgery compared with non-RTRs with otherwise similar characteristics. Among RTRs, DD-RTRs and those with higher preop CNI trough levels are at the highest risk.

This could be of particular importance in providing a means for preventing NTDs that are unresponsive to folic acid. This review highlights the characteristics of inositol and describes the role of myo-inositol in the prevention of NTDs in rodent studies and the evidence for its efficacy in reducing NTD risk in human pregnancy. The possible reduction in NTD risk by maternal myo-inositol implies functional and developmentally important maternal-embryonic inositol interrelationships and also suggests that embryonic uptake of myo-inositol is crucial for embryonic development. The establishment of active myo-inositol cellular uptake mechanisms in the embryonic stages of human pregnancy, when the neural tube is closing, is likely to be an important determinant of normal development. We draw attention to the generation of materno-fetal inositol concentration gradients and relationships, and outline a transport pathway by which myo-inositol may be delivered to the early developing human embryo.
