The ambit of this exposition encompasses the delineation of the clinical features, diagnostic criteria, and treatment options for DD. DD is a complex and poorly understood ailment, thereby rendering its diagnosis a daunting task, primarily on account of the indeterminate character of its symptoms. Nonetheless, the timely identification of DD is crucial to stave off its advancement and ameliorate the standard of living of those afflicted by it. Diagnostic criteria have been posited for DD, and diagnostic imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), have proven efficacious in facilitating the diagnosis of this malady. The treatment of DD is primarily palliative, geared toward assuaging pain and enhancing the overall quality of life. Therapeutic options comprise the administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and opioids, local anesthetics, weight management strategies, and alterations to lifestyle choices.","PeriodicalId":8531,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences","volume":"154 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139258824","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}

Mikulicz disease, a subtype of IgG4-RD, specifically targets the lachrymal and salivary glands, leading to glandular swelling, xerostomia, and xerophthalmia. Diagnosis of Mikulicz disease is established on the presence of proportional and persistent inflammation of at least two pairs of lachrymal, submandibular, and parotid glands, along with exalted serum IgG4 levels and/or marked penetration of IgG4-positive plasmacytes into the affected glandular tissues. Treatment with glucocorticoids has shown to be beneficial in managing IgG4-related MD, but the efficacy of combination therapy in preventing relapse is still a topic of debate. The underlying causes of the disease can vary, but lymphoepithelial sialadenitis is the widespread cause. The disease typically presents in individuals with an average age ranging from 55 to 65 years, and the incidence among individuals under the age of 20 is exceedingly rare. Mikulicz disease is an enigmatic ailment that is still being researched. However, identifying its hallmark symptoms and distinguishing it from other similar conditions is essential for effective diagnosis and treatment. Further research is essential to better comprehend the fundamental causes of the disease and to promote more effective treatment options for patients with Mikulicz disease and other subtypes of IgG4-RD.","PeriodicalId":8531,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139258937","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}

Studies have shown that nanoemulsion is a more effective drug delivery system compared to other incorporated transdermal methods. The effectiveness of the nanoemulsion is influenced by the choice and properties of the surfactant and co-surfactant used.

Tuberculosis is a major global health threat. In 2022, an estimated 10 million people worldwide developed TB disease, and there were about 1.5 million TB-related deaths. TB primarily affects low- and middle-income countries, with the highest burden in Africa, Asia, and the Western Pacific regions. The WHO has launched the \"End TB Strategy\" with the aim of eliminating TB as a public health problem by 2035. Early diagnosis and prompt initiation of treatment are essential for effective TB control. WHO recommends a package of interventions known as \"Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course\" (DOTS) for TB control, which includes standardized diagnostic approaches, access to quality-assured drugs, and supportive treatment adherence measures. Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health burden, necessitating the development of new therapeutic strategies. Fluoroquinolones (FQs) have emerged as promising agents in the treatment of TB due to their potent antimicrobial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and their ability to penetrate intracellular compartments. This review aims to summarize the current knowledge on the use of FQs as antitubercular agents, highlighting their mechanisms of action, efficacy and limitations.","PeriodicalId":8531,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences","volume":"53 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139257901","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}
