Background Release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is associated with periprocedural myocardial infarction, as a result of microvascular obstruction via pro-inflammatory and prothrombotic pathways. Colchicine is a well-established anti-inflammatory agent with growing evidence to support use in patients with coronary disease. However, its effects on post-PCI NET formation in ACS have not been explored. Methods and Results Sixty patients (40 ACS; 20 stable angina pectoris) were prospectively recruited and allocated to colchicine or no treatment. Within 24 hours of treatment, serial coronary sinus blood samples were collected during PCI. Isolated neutrophils from 10 patients with ACS post-PCI and 4 healthy controls were treated in vitro with colchicine (25 nmol/L) and stimulated with either ionomycin (5 μmol/L) or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (50 nmol/L). Extracellular DNA was quantified using Sytox Green and fixed cells were stained with Hoechst 3342 and anti-alpha tubulin. Baseline characteristics were similar across both treatment and control arms. Patients with ACS had higher NET release versus patients with stable angina pectoris (P less then 0.001), which was reduced with colchicine treatment (area under the curve 0.58 versus 4.29; P less then 0.001). In vitro, colchicine suppressed unstimulated (P less then 0.001), phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-induced (P=0.009) and ionomycin-induced (P=0.002) NET formation in neutrophils isolated from patients with ACS post-PCI, but not healthy controls. Tubulin organization was impaired in neutrophils from patients with ACS but was restored by colchicine treatment. Conclusions Colchicine suppresses NET formation in patients with ACS post-PCI by restoring cytoskeletal dynamics. These findings warrant further investigation in randomized trials powered for clinical end points.

On the basis of summarizing the pharmacological and pharmacokinetic studies of CA in recent years, we hope to provide useful information for CA about treating different diseases and to make suggestions for future research.Areas covered We collected relevant information (January 2014 to March 2020) on CA via the Internet database. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/suzetrigine.html Keywords searched includ pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and toxicology, and the number of effective references was 118. CA is a phytoestrogen with wide range of pharmacological activities. By affecting PI3K/Akt/mTOR, WDR7-7-GPR30, Rab27B-β-catenin-VEGF, etc. signaling pathway, CA showed the effect of anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-osteoporosis, neuroprotection, hepatoprotection, etc. Therefore, CA is prospective to be used in the treatment of many diseases.Expert opinion Research shows that CA has a therapeutic effect on a variety of diseases. We think CA is a promising natural medicine. Therefore, we propose that the research directions of CA in the future include the following. Carrying out clinical research trials in order to find the most suitable medicinal concentration for different diseases; Exploring the synergistic mechanism of CA in combination with other drugs; Exploring ways to increase the blood circulation concentration of CA. This study examined the use of Healing Touch (HT), a biofield therapy, as an intervention in treating posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It exemplifies the upswing of biofield (energy field) therapies that have been taking place recently for a number of clinical conditions, including cancer, pain, arthritis, movement restriction, and energy psychology. Theoretically, the human body is the physical aspect of an individualized field of energy (biofield) in which electrical activity functions as a complex, organized whole or system. Hypothetically, this system plays a critical role in the effective treatment of PTSD. Trauma-induced congested energy in vital areas of the human body, particularly the chakras and the funnel-shaped crown-to-transpersonal channel, impedes the natural release of unwanted energy of emotions, thereby becoming a major obstacle to treatment. This qualitative and quantitative study examined the use of HT as an effective intervention to break up and clear away congested energy, promote APA, all rights reserved). Although continued research using larger samples is needed, it may be concluded that HT is a low-risk, low-cost intervention for PTSD that should be implemented as a treatment option, especially in combination with "gold-standard" therapies. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved).The popularity of complementary and integrative health (also complementary integrated health; CIH) approaches has significantly increased in recent years. According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), part of the National Institutes of Health, about 1 in 3 adults and 1 in 9 children used CIH approaches to healing. Some reports estimate that the use of CIH approaches will continue to increase (Clarke et al., 2015) as these therapies are cost effective and also due to the difficulties in finding trained mental health professionals (Simon et al., 2020). For the purpose of this special issue, we use the NCCIH's definition of CIH as "a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional medicine" (Barnes et al., 2004, p. v). However, the integration of these therapies into the health system has not followed the same pattern despite the fact that patients report the need to discuss CIH therapies wd holistic wellness models that go beyond the use of evidence-based treatments. This approach also seeks to be culturally responsive, which is a key factor in addressing health disparities in the United States (American Psychological Association [APA], 2019). The Institute of Medicine, in its report on CIH therapies, highlighted the importance of engaging patients in their own care, including having a decision about therapeutic options (Bondurant et al., 2005). Likewise, the Race and Ethnicity Guidelines in Psychology (APA, 2019) recommend psychologists engage the patient's cultural beliefs, or what Kleinman called the "explanatory belief model" (Kleinman, 1978)- for example, by "aim[ing] to understand and encourage indigenous/ ethnocultural sources of healing within professional practice" (APA, 2019, p. 24).
