The risk of pDDI was more commonly observed in elderly male patients particularly with antiplatelet drugs like low dose aspirin and clopidogrel.
Human gene therapy is the introduction of new genetic material into the cells of an individual with the intention of producing a therapeutic benefit for the patient. Deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid are used in gene therapy. Over time and with proper oversight, human gene therapy might become an effective weapon in modern medicine's arsenal to help fight diseases such as cancer, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, diabetes, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, neurodegenerative diseases, cystic fibrosis, hemophilia and other genetic disorders. Gene therapy trials in humans are of two types, somatic and germ line gene therapy. There are many ethical, social, and commercial issues raised by the prospects of treating patients whose consent is impossible to obtain. This review summarizes deoxyribonucleic acid-based therapeutics and gene transfer technologies for the diseases that are known to be genetic in origin. Deoxyribonucleic acid-based therapeutics includes plasmids, oligonucleotides for antisense and antigene applications, deoxyribonucleic acid aptamers and deoxyribonucleic acidzymes. This review also includes current status of gene therapy and recent developments in gene therapy research.
Objective: To Identify molecular characterization of swine flu (H1N1) pdm 09 and seasonal flu (influenza A). Materials and methods: NP/OP Swab specimen of 142 patients were collected aseptically in VTM. Nucleic Acid was extracted manually and was processed in Real-Time PCR for identification of swine flu (H1N1) 09 pdm and seasonal flu (inf A). Results: In this study, 142 patients presented with signs and symptoms of Flu like illness patients and were tested by Real-time PCR. Out of total 32 (22.53%) positive specimens, 18(56.25%) were positive swine flu(H1N1) 09 pdm and 14(43.73%) were positive seasonal flu (inf A). Conclusion: We report a tiny outbreak of 18 swine flu (H1N1) 09 pdm and 14 seasonal flu cases in our hospital, from Jan 2022 to June 2022. The outbreak involved persons of all age groups, but it mostly affected paediatric age group.
Coronavirus associated with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) has been identified as Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID19) Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), first detected in Wuhan, Hubei province, China, the National Health Commission of China received reports of 27 cases of pneumonia, including seven severe cases of unknown origin, on 30th December 2019. In order to diagnose COVID-19, the virus responsible for the pandemic, SARS-CoV-2, was analysed for its Ribonucleic Acid (RNA). It is possible to detect specific sequences of genes encoding the RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP), nucleocapsid (N), envelope (E), and spike (S) proteins of viruses using Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). There are four major groups of drugs recommended by treatment guidelines worldwide: antiviral drugs (eight drugs), antimalarial drugs (two drugs), systemic corticosteroids (five drugs), and immune-based therapy (seven drugs). The recommendations for the treatment with these drugs in all of the guidelines differ depending on the severity of the case and the health conditions of the patient. A successful preventative vaccine is the most important and time-sensitive measure in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. There were 12 SARS-CoV-2 vaccines approved/authorised for full or emergency use in various parts of the world as of 25th February 2021, with more than 200 million doses administered worldwide. Because the disease is still relatively new and healthcare is under considerable pressure, many questions remain unanswered. There is a lack of publications regarding the effectiveness and safety of these drugs in COVID-19 patients. In addition, community members with limited financial resources must still consider the costs associated with some of the proposed treatment regimens.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
