A randomized sequential allocation study on the optimum programmed intermittent epidural boluses interval time with different concentrations of ropivacaine combined with the dural puncture epidural technique for labor analgesia.

Frontiers in pharmacology
BACKGROUND: The combined technique of programmed intermittent epidural boluses (PIEB) and dural puncture epidural (DPE) is currently considered a more effective mode for labor analgesia. We investigated the optimal interval time for PIEB administrati...

The efficacy of core decompression combined with regenerative therapy in early femoral head necrosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis involving 954 subjects.

Frontiers in pharmacology
BACKGROUND: The debate continues on whether combining core decompression (CD) with regenerative therapy provides a more effective treatment for early femoral head necrosis than CD alone. This systematic review and meta-analysis endeavored to assess i...

Accurate identification of snoRNA targets using variational graph autoencoder to advance the redevelopment of traditional medicines.

Frontiers in pharmacology
Existing studies indicate that dysregulation or abnormal expression of small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) is closely associated with various diseases, including lung cancer. Furthermore, these diseases often involve multiple targets, making the redevelopme...

Biological activities of lichen extracts and UHPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS analysis of their secondary metabolites.

Frontiers in pharmacology
This research was designed to investigate the metabolite profiling, phenolics content, and the trypanocidal, nematicidal, antibacterial, antifungal, and free radical scavenging properties of Motyka. The air-dried material was extracted successively...

Plant and marine-derived natural products: sustainable pathways for future drug discovery and therapeutic development.

Frontiers in pharmacology
Plant- and marine-derived natural products are rich sources of bioactive compounds essential for drug discovery. These compounds contain complex mixtures of metabolites, which collectively contribute to their pharmacological properties. However, chal...

Curcumin nanocrystals ameliorate ferroptosis of diabetic nephropathy through glutathione peroxidase 4.

Frontiers in pharmacology
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of curcumin nanocrystals (Cur-NCs) on ferroptosis in high-glucose (HG)-induced HK-2 cells and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic nephropathy model (DN) rats. The purpose is to determin...

Xixin Decoction's novel mechanism for alleviating Alzheimer's disease cognitive dysfunction by modulating amyloid-β transport across the blood-brain barrier to reduce neuroinflammation.

Frontiers in pharmacology
PURPOSE: Xixin Decoction (XXD) is a classical formula that has been used to effectively treat dementia for over 300 years. Modern clinical studies have demonstrated its significant therapeutic effects in treating Alzheimer's disease (AD) without nota...

The clinical features and risk factors of coagulopathy associated with cefoperazone/sulbactam: a nomogram prediction model.

Frontiers in pharmacology
BACKGROUND: Cefoperazone/sulbactam (CPZ/SAM) is an important treatment option for infections caused by multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria. However, it is associated with an increased risk of coagulation disorders (CD) and causes severe bleedi...

Bioequivalence study of fluticasone propionate nebuliser suspensions in healthy Chinese subjects.

Frontiers in pharmacology
BACKGROUND: Fluticasone propionate is a synthetic trifluoro-substituted glucocorticoid, a highly selective glucocorticoid receptor agonist. Fluticasone propionate nebuliser suspensions is an inhaled corticosteroid with the low systemic bioavailabilit...

Protein-ligand binding affinity prediction using multi-instance learning with docking structures.

Frontiers in pharmacology
INTRODUCTION: Recent advances in 3D structure-based deep learning approaches demonstrate improved accuracy in predicting protein-ligand binding affinity in drug discovery. These methods complement physics-based computational modeling such as molecula...
