Health-related quality of life in schizophrenia can be assessed by direct patient response or a rating based on structured interview. This study compares both types instruments using series five standards: (1) sensitivity to change over time, (2) treatment effect, (3) correlation with symptom severity, (4) global clinical ratings, and (5) other measures health-related life. Four hundred twenty-three inpatients participating trial comparing clozapine haloperidol (VA Cooperative Study Health...
<h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate golimumab9s effect on MRI-detected inflammation and structural damage in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) despite methotrexate (MTX). <h3>Methods</h3> Patients (n=444) were randomly assigned to placebo plus MTX, golimumab 100 mg placebo, 50 or MTX (subcutaneous injections every 4 weeks). A subset of 240 participated an MRI substudy. MRIs (1.5T+contrast enhancement) the dominant wrist metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints obtained at baseline weeks 12...
Introduction: Herein, a hyaluronic acid (HA)-coated redox-sensitive chitosan-based nanoparticle, HA(HECS-ss-OA)/GA, was successfully developed for tumor-specific intracellular rapid delivery of gambogic (GA). Materials and methods: The polymer, HECS-ss-OA, prepared through well-controlled synthesis procedure with satisfactory reproducibility stable resulted surface properties the assembled cationic micelles. GA solubilized into inner core HECS-ss-OA micelles, while HA employed to coat...
This study compared the time course to clinical improvement with clozapine and conventional antipsychotic medications. A double-blind trial haloperidol in patients schizophrenia who were refractory medication hospitalized for 30 364 days at 15 Veteran Affairs medical centers during year before entry. Patients original randomly assigned or followed 12 months, maximum tolerable doses. completed a full of treatment (n=122), either another (n=123) also 9- 12-month assessment included. Response...
<h3>Objectives</h3> Evaluate relationships between MRI and clinical/laboratory/radiographic findings in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). <h3>Methods</h3> 637 methotrexate-naive patients (GO-BEFORE) 444 with active RA despite methotrexate (GO-FORWARD) were randomly assigned to subcutaneous placebo + methotrexate, golimumab 100mg placebo, 50mg or every-4-weeks. In GO-BEFORE(n=318) GO-FORWARD(n=240) substudies, of dominant wrist/metacarpophalangeal joints scored for synovitis, bone oedema erosion (RA...
Egg-white protein has an abundance of hydrophobic amino acids and could be a potential emulsifier after modification. Here, egg-white was modified via ultrasonic transglutaminase treatments to destroy the globular structure. The gel particles (EWP-GPs) were prepared then novel highly stable EWP-chitosan double-layer emulsion constructed. When treatment applied at 240 W TGase (20 U/g EWP) treatment, EWP-GPs had low particle size good emulsification performance. minimum 287 nm, polymer...
This study aimed to produce manno-oligosaccharides (MOS) from Gleditsia microphylla galactomannans (GMG) using CO2 and solid acid (Amberlyst-35) in subcritical water. The optimal condition for MOS preparation was 3 MPa CO2, 0.1 g/g (relative GMG) at 150 °C 40 min. maximum yield with a degree of polymerization 2 4 (M2-M4) 52.19%, which doubled the compared either solely or acid. Solid showed excellent performance producing under H2O–CO2 condition, due enhanced mass transfer efficiency...
Background: Although GCA is responsive to glucocorticoids (GCS), therapy causes significant toxicity and often fails induce sustained remission. Purpose: Assess safety efficacy of infliximab (IFX) in patients (pts) with new onset a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, Phase II study. Methods:Eligibility: diagnosis (ACR criteria); ≤4 weeks (wks) duration; resolution features normal ESR following treatment 40–60 mg prednisone or prednisolone/day; remission for 1 wk prior...
