Abstract

Drug packaging not only serves as a protective barrier for pharmaceutical products but also functions as a strategic element in conveying information and ensuring consumer rights. This study is a literature review of five journals that discuss packaging innovation, legal aspects of labeling, consumer protection, and packaging design from both technological and regulatory perspectives. The aim of this study is to compare the dimensions of innovation, information, and protection in drug packaging. A narrative review method with a qualitative descriptive approach was used. The results show that innovations such as the use of adsorbent plastic and efficiency in packaging systems significantly affect product stability and production speed. Meanwhile, the inclusion of composition details and halal labeling on packaging serves as a form of consumer protection from health risks and rights violations. It is concluded that a multidimensional approach to drug packaging is essential in creating a pharmaceutical distribution system that is efficient, safe, and ethical.

Abstract

Prolactin, a hormone primarily known for its important role in lactation and reproductive function have recently been implicated in metabolic-processes including glucose regulation. This study aims to investigation the relationship between serum prolactin levels and markers of glucose metabolism—specifically HbA1c and fasting blood glucose (FBG)—in women with T2DM. A cross sectional study was conducted on 100 adult female patients with T2DM, aged 35–50 years. Participants were classified based on HbA1c into three groups: good (≤7.0%), moderate (7.1–8.5%), and poor (≥8.6%) glycemic control. They were also stratified into low, normal, and high prolactin level groups. Serum prolactin was measured by ELISA, HbA1c by HPLC, and FBG using an automated analyzer. Statistical analysis was performed with significance at p ≤ 0.05. Although prolactin levels tended to increase with worsening HbA1c, the difference among HbA1c groups was not statistically significant. However, when stratified by prolactin levels, women in the high prolactin group had significantly higher HbA1c (7.38 ± 1.07%) and FBG (163.21 ± 25.23 mg/dL) compared to those in the low prolactin group (HbA1c: 6.82 ± 0.91%, FBG: 149.22 ± 22.24 mg/dL; p = 0.041 and p = 0.040, respectively). Elevated serum prolactin levels may be associated with poorer glycemic control in women with T2DM. These results showing the potential-role of prolactin hormone as a supplementary test in measuring glucose metabolism.

Abstract

Background: Research of glucose detection is important in diabetes management and biosensor development. Taking into account the large amount of water retention, the biocompatibility of hydrogels makes them ideal candidates for glucose detection. The PBA groups, when grafted to hydrogel matrices, improve the glucose-related response of the hydrogels significantly. Objective: To create a novel PBA (phenylboronic acid) holographic glucose sensor, MAAm-co-4VPBA, for uninterrupted monitoring of blood glucose levels, which demonstrates the first successful glucose measurement in whole blood using PBA sensors. Methods: Methylacrylamide (MAAm) was copolymerized with 4-vinyl phenyl boronic acid (4-VPBA) by means of free radical polymerization employing 1,6-hexanedioldiacrylate (HDODA) as a crosslinker and the photoinitiator 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone. The responsive glucose behavior of the resulting polymer was characterized in terms of swelling dynamics, ex vivo flow tests, and error grid analysis mechanisms. Results: The MAAm-co-4VPBA polymer exhibits reversible glucose binding via PBA-diol interactions that allow complexation at different pH and concentration levels. Modulation of the responsive elements of the microcapsules by hydrophobic PBA and hydrophilic MAAm units yields maximum swelling and shrinking dynamics at 37 trail degrees. The sensor successfully detected glucose in opaque biological fluids, blood plasma, without any interference from antibiotics or other therapeutics or endogenous compounds. Ex vivo tests showed real-time glucose monitoring without hysteresis. Most importantly, this work is the first to report the use of PBA-based sensors in whole blood for measuring glucose. Conclusion: The MAAm-co-4VPBA holographic sensor possesses outstanding features such as accurate records and strong resistance to chemicals and slow response to detection, confirming its effectiveness in continuous glucose monitoring. Moreover, the ability to operate in the real world enables the aid in clinical diagnosis of diabetes.

Abstract

The present study aims to prepare the aqueous extract of the frankincense plant and then identify the most important biologically active substances in it, and study the effect of these substances against free radicals (2,2-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH)) and Total Antioxidant Capacity. Then the effect of extract was tested on the blood serum of Alzheimer's patients in the nursing home in Diwaniyah Governorate, where 30 people were taken. 10 of them were healthy and were considered a positive control groupG1, and 20 of them were Alzheimer's patients, where 10 of them were considered a negative control groupG2, and the other 10 Alzheimer's patients had their serum treated with the extract of frankincenseG3. The effect of the extract on malondialdehyde and acetylcholinesterase enzyme was tested. The current study showed that extract contains biologically active substances such as (Flavonoids, Phenols, Tannins Triterpenoids, Steroids and Saponins) and these substances had an effective effect in inhibiting the radical (DPPH) where the inhibition rate reached 88% at (250mg/ml) and Total Antioxidant Capacity was (8.8*103 µmol/L) at the same concentration. That results also showed the significant rise in the concentration malonaldehyde in Alzheimer’s patients (G2, G3) when compared with G1. When the G3 was treated with the aqueous extract, a decrease in the concentration of malonaldehyde (3.23µml/l) was observed. The significant reduction in the Activity of the Acetylcholinesterase enzyme (3.97U/ml) was also observed in the (G3) as compared with(G2) (12.297U/ml). This is due to the biologically active substances in the extract, which indicates the possibility of using this extract to treat Alzheimer's patients in the future.

Abstract

COPD is a condition characterized by airflow obstruction that cannot be completely corrected. This limitation generally worsens over time and is associated with abnormal permeability to noxious particles or gases, resulting in narrowing of the airways, increased mucus secretion, and changes in the vascular system. The increase in chest expansion capacity is caused by the activity of respiratory muscle contraction. The activity of the respiratory muscles plays a role in chest expansion, which also affects lung growth. It is stated that the strength of the respiratory muscles decreases with age. Loss of intercostal muscle mass and strength are factors that reduce the ability of chest wall presence or development. This study used a case report design research method. Physiotherapy management for COPD is increasingly focused on exercise-based rehabilitation, both in outpatient and inpatient settings. Some therapies such as breathing exercises, thoracic expansion exercises and muscle release.
