On-treatment levels of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) may predict response to peginterferon (PEG-IFN) therapy in chronic (CHB), but previously proposed prediction rules have shown limited external validity. We analyzed 803 HBeAg-positive patients treated with PEG-IFN three global studies available HBsAg measurements. A stopping-rule based on absence a decline from baseline was compared prediction-rule that uses <1,500 IU/mL and >20,000 identify high low probabilities response....
Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir has been authorized for emergency use by many countries the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19). However, supply falls short global demand, which creates a need more options. VV116 is an oral antiviral agent with potent activity against severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2).We conducted phase 3, noninferiority, observer-blinded, randomized trial during outbreak caused B.1.1.529 (omicron) variant SARS-CoV-2. Symptomatic adults mild-to-moderate...
Abstract Objectives To assess the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) plus standard–of–care (SOC) compared with SOC alone in adult patients COVID–19. Design Multicenter, open–label, randomized controlled trial. Setting 16 government–designated COVID–19 treatment centers China through 11 to 29 February 2020. Participants 150 hospitalized laboratory confirmed were included intention treat analysis. 75 assigned HCQ alone. Interventions was administrated a loading dose 1, 200 mg...
Activation of death receptors and mitochondrial damage are well-described common apoptotic pathways. Recently, a novel pathway via endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been reported. We assessed the role tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) in inhibition caspase-12 activation its effect on calcium homeostasis an ER stress-induced model apoptosis. The human liver-derived cell line, Huh7, was treated with thapsigargin (TG) to induce stress. Typical morphologic changes preceded development...
As there is currently a lack of consensus on the most appropriate dose and duration peginterferon alfa-2a (PEG-IFNα-2a) therapy in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive patients, efficacy safety either 24 or 48 weeks' 90 μg/week 180 doses were compared. HBeAg-positive patients (n = 544; 34% genotype B, 51% C) randomized to receive PEG-IFNα-2a (2 × 2 factorial design) for weeks at included per-protocol population. The primary endpoint noninferiority study was HBeAg seroconversion 6 months...
This paper investigates two surface electromyogram (sEMG)-based control strategies developed for a power-assist exoskeleton arm. Different from most of the existing position approaches, this develops force methods to make robot behave like humans in order provide better assistance. The is directly attached user's body and activated by sEMG signals muscles, which reflect motion intention. In first proposed method, forces agonist antagonist muscles pair are estimated, their difference used...
Abstract Background Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a highly profibrogenic molecule implicated in hepatic fibrogenesis. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) an effective tool to silence gene expression post‐transcriptionally. Therefore, we conducted investigation determine if intraportal vein siRNA injection targeting CTGF inhibits on rat liver vivo and furthermore whether it protects the from fibrosis. Methods Some rats received carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 ) by subcutaneous injections...
Abstract The diagnostic and prognostic criteria of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) were developed in patients with no Hepatitis B virus (HBV) cirrhosis (CANONIC study). aims this study to evaluate whether the (CLIF-C organ score; CLIF-C OFs) can be used classify patients; score ACLF score) could provide information HBV cirrhotic ACLF. 890 associated acute decompensation (AD) enrolled. Using OFs, 33.7% (300 patients) diagnosed as was more common younger those previous history...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer worldwide and usually develops in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). Biomarkers that discriminate HCC from LC are important but limited. In present study, an ultraperformance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS)-based metabonomics approach was used to characterize serum profiles (n = 82), 48), healthy subjects 90), accuracy of UPLC–MS alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels were compared for their use diagnosis. By...
Fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) is a clinical syndrome characterized by sudden and severe impairment of liver function. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been proposed as promising therapeutic approach for FHF. In this study we used Propionibacterium acnes ( P. )-primed, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced injury in mice an animal model human We demonstrated that administration MSCs significantly ameliorated improved the survival rates subjected to plus LPS-induced Allogeneic showed similar...
