Clinical Experience with Tixocortol Pivalate by Stephen B. Hanauer

“…Tixocortol pivalate, the 21-thiol derivative of hydrocortisone. is a newly synthesized steroid with topical anti-inflammatory properties but is devoid of systemic glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid activities and toxicity. The mechanism of action appears to be similar to that of other corticosteroids with regard to steroid binding sites and prostaglandin biosynthesis, however. the disassociation between local and systemic effects is due to a 'first pass' liver metabolism and rapid transformation with in red blood cells. ln both open and controlled studies in patients with acute or recurrent distal colitis, clinical efficacy has been noted at doses of 250 mg to 1000 mg in 100 ml solution without an effect on scrum cortisol levels or blood chemistries. …”

Clinical Perspectives - Biologics in IBD: What's All the Fuss? by Hillary Steinhart

“…These drugs have been quite useful in one or more clinical settings, but they have been hampered by modest efficacy, significant toxicity or both. With greater understanding of the specific pathways of the gut mucosal immune response, it is hoped that newer biologic response modifiers will provide better efficacy, with an improved adverse event profile compared with older existing therapies. …”

La matière des images dans The Duchess of Malfi by Anne-Valérie Dulac

“…Starting from an analysis of the material circumstances of picture-making as shown or described in the play, my contention is that Webster emphasizes the difference between metal crafts and ductile materials, which in turn opens onto a reflection upon time and sound in the creative process, thereby accounting for the pictures’ varying degrees of agency and toxicity.…”

In the Shadow of the “Indeterminate Speech-Act”: The Populist Politics of Rumor in Fritz Lang’s Early Sound Films by Florian Zappe

“…While his films of the silent era remain politically ambiguous and have often been accused of foreshadowing fascist themes and aesthetics, the sound films produced shortly before and after Lang’s emigration to the United States take a clear political stand with regards to the toxic effects of rumors as expressions of populist sentiments and, in this, provide a gateway to the director’s integration into American liberalism.…”

Nanomaterials in wound infeetion care for senile diabetes: current research and developments by Yiran Liu, Xue Bai, Hui Ren, Baofeng Guo

“…Wound infections in elderly diabetic patients represent a severe complication of diabetes, with diabetic foot ulcers being the most common manifestation.Due to impaired immune function and the prolonged course of the disease, elderly patients often struggle to control wound infections, leading to increased medical costs, extended hospital stays, higher rates of amputation and mortality.As bacterial resistance becomes more prevalent, traditional oral or intravenous antibiotics are increasingly ineffective in treating wound infections in elderly diabetic patients.In contrast, emerging nanomaterials offer promising prospects in antibacterial therapy, owing to their superior biocompatibility, targeted action, controlled release, and low toxicity.This article reviews the latest research on the antibacterial mechanisms of nanomaterials and explores their potential as a novel strategy for treating wound infections in elderly diabetic patients.…”
