Gemcabene, a small molecule in development for dyslipidemia, reduces plasma very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides (TG) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in animal models and humans. An analysis of the clinical information available for gemcabene and translational research substantiates the potential of gemcabene as a therapeutic agent for NASH. Specifically, gemcabene showed positive effects in clinical trials in severe hypertriglyceridemia and in subsets of obese, diabetic patients, particularly reductions in triglycerides, cholesterol and proatherogenic and inflammation markers. In nonclinical models, gemcabene showed significant improvement in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) activity and fibrosis scores and affected beneficially the hepatic expression of many lipid regulating and inflammatory genes.","PeriodicalId":151968,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Clinical Case Studies","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116381540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The umbilical cord milking is a safe technique. Aim of the study: The aim of the study to assess the effects of umbilical cord milking as compared with early cord clamping on hematological parameters (hemoglobin, packed cell volume, bilirubin and ferritin) among term and near term neonates. Materials & methods: This study was carried out as randomized, controlled clinical trial. The subjects were divided randomly into two groups (200 neonates who the cord was milked after cutting and clamping at 25 cm from the umbilicus as a study group and 200 neonates who were received early cord clamping without milking as a control group) in term and near term infants. Results: the hemoglobin level significantly increased in study group at 12, 48 hours and 6 weeks of birth (16.9, 16.9 &15.5 gm/dl) as compared with control group (16.2, 16.2 &15.0 gm/dl) and serum ferritin level significantly increased in study group at 6 weeks of birth (135.4 μg/ml) as compared with control group (128.8 μg/ml). The hematocrit level at 12 and 48 hours after birth was significantly higher in study group (p= 0.016). Serum bilirubin was slightly elevated in study group but there were not any infants of them needed phototherapy. Conclusions: Umbilical cord milking improved hemoglobin and iron status in term and near term neonates.","PeriodicalId":151968,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Clinical Case Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129491390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is only taken into consideration when by the person is mentally competent. With the advance of medical knowledge, there is a better understanding of the prognosis of dementia. Individuals’ diagnosed with dementia often expresses that they do not want to be a burden to their family members as the disease progress and often expresses they want to end their life before they are not able to take care of themselves. The aim of this paper is to critique the feasibility and ethical considerations of euthanasia among individuals diagnosed with dementia using ‘MORAL’ ethical decision-making model. Patient (individual diagnosed with dementia), caregiver, nurses and physician should be included in order to have a deeper understanding of the euthanasia ethical dilemma. Different options such as treatment available, type and strategies appropriate for the dementia case, appropriate ethical theories in the dementia case (beneficence and autonomy). Then, it is essential to review and “look back” at the case. In order to enhance the possibilities of euthanasia among individual with dementia, advance directives on euthanasia could be an option.","PeriodicalId":151968,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Clinical Case Studies","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116919320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The more common events that lead to a TBI are vehicle collisions, domestic violence, falls, sports, and war [1]. Depending on the severity, a TBI can result in permanent disabilities, and in extreme cases, it is fatal. Some of the symptoms seen after a TBI are lumped together in what is termed PTSD. Symptoms typically include behaviors such as depression, anti-social behavior, impulsivity, and fear/anxiety. Additionally, TBI injuries have shown symptoms that are closely related to Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’slike symptoms. TBI related symptoms do not occur in a short timeframe, on the contrary, these often arise months or years after the injury has occurred, making the initial assessment of injury difficult [1-3]. A TBI occurs in two phases; the first phase is known as the primary injury or the initial injury. The second phase, referred to as the secondary injury consists of cellular processes that are activated after the initial injury and can persist for hours, days, and months after the initial impact [1,4]. Cellular processes such as nitric oxide formation, inadequate blood flow, imbalance of ions, neurotoxicity, and excitotoxicity compose the secondary injury and lead to tissue death. As a consequence, secondary injury contributes to the damage by affecting a larger area than the primary injury [4,5]. There is currently no treatment for this type of injury; there are only preventive measures such as wearing helmets or wearing seatbelts while driving. Thus, this review paper focused on estrogens’ neuroprotection mechanism on traumatic brain injury.","PeriodicalId":151968,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Clinical Case Studies","volume":"35 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114006469","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
