Antiplatelet agents target the cyclooxygenase‐1 (COX‐1)/thromboxane A2 (TXA2) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)‐P2Y12 (cytochrome P450 2C19 [CYP2C19]‐metabolized) platelet activation pathways, resulting in either drug resistance or over‐inhibition. The individualized therapeutic window balances ischemic risk (triggered by high on‐treatment platelet ...

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

The Diagnosis and Prenatal Management of Non‐RHD Alloimmunizations
ABSTRACT Red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization remains a relevant cause of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). Although RhD immunization has significantly decreased since the implementation of systematic prophylaxis, it is still the main cause of alloimmunization in pregnancy.

Abstract Topiramate (TPM) is a broad‐spectrum antiepileptic drug (AED) commonly prescribed for approved and off‐label uses. Routine monitoring is suggested for clinical usage of TPM in special population due to its broad side effect profile. Therefore, it is crucial to further explore its pharmacokinetic characteristics.

This work proposes a mechanism in which ganoderic acid A (GAA), the active monomer of ganoderic acids (GA) from Ganoderma lucidum, binds to the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) to form a GR‐GAA complex, thereby inhibiting DEX‐induced GR activation. This inhibition suppresses oxidative stress (ROS, MDA and 4‐HNE) by upregulating antioxidant proteins (Nrf2 ...
