DNA interaction, antioxidant, and in vitro antitumor activity of binuclear ruthenium(III) complexes of benzothiazole-substituted ferrocenyl thiosemicarbazones

In our search for new anticancer drugs, a series of binuclear ruthenium(III) thiosemicarbazone complexes of the type [RuCl₂(EPh₃)]₂L (where E = P/As; L = binucleating monobasic tridentate thiosemicarbazone ligand) have been synthesized. Structural features were determined by various physico-chemical and spectral techniques. The interactions of these complexes with CT-DNA were investigated by absorption spectral study, indicates that the binuclear ruthenium(III) complexes form adducts with DNA and has intrinsic binding constant in the range of 1.0 × 10⁴–7.9 × 10⁴ M^?1. The free radical scavenging activity of binuclear ruthenium(III) complexes have been determined by their interaction with the stable DPPH free radical. All the complexes exhibited significant antiproliferative activity against human breast cancer line, MCF-7. This research may provide knowledge that is an excellent backdrop for the rational design of promising drugs.     

Internet of things for knowledge administrations by wearable gadgets

The novel gadgets are associated constantly at a quick phase for the development of Internet of Things (IoT). Wearable gadgets are another gathering development in those available gadgets. The recent method in gadgets is to coordinate with IoT and idea is implementing the remote sensor systems that convey novel encounters in day by day exercises. Here, I exhibit a regular day to day existence application including a Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) for gaming situation. By using this, the physical factors of sports person are estimated and directed by wearable gadgets to Wireless Sensor Networks. The end goal to incorporate diverse equipment stages and to present an administration situated semantic middleware arrangement hooked on a solitary request also utilization of Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is introduced as a scaffold to ensure coordination of the distinctive conditions and interoperability. Through proposed method everyone can procure information by introducing framework to fresh client. Those clients would be able to get to the information through a wide assortment of gadgets (cell phones, tablets, and PCs) and working frameworks (Android, Windows, Linux, iOS, and so on). Finally we introduced one case study of football match for monitoring 11 players and acquiring data’s and to predict the real time situation in football ground.     

Clinical approach to hip pain

Hip joint pain occurs not uncommonly in clinical practice. Arthritis of the hip joint, ligament strain and bursitis are some of the common causes of hip joint pain encountered by physicians. This article dwells on relevant clinical anatomy of the hip and the diagnostic approach to hip pain in rheumatology clinic.     

Association between presence of pneumonia and pressure ulcer formation following traumatic spinal cord injury

Objective: To determine if the presence of pneumonia and pressure ulcers are associated in individuals with an acute spinal cord injury during acute care and rehabilitation hospitalizations.

Design: Retrospective, secondary analyses of data obtained from the Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems enrolled from 1993 until 2006

Setting: Acute care hospitalization and inpatient rehabilitation facilities

Participants: A cohort of individuals hospitalized in acute care (n?=?3,098) and inpatient rehabilitation (n?=?1,768) was included in the analysis. Frequencies of pressure ulcer formation and episodes of pneumonia were noted in both settings.

Interventions: Not applicable.

Outcome Measures: Pressure ulcer formation and diagnosis of pneumonia

Results: The development of pressure ulcers, including stage I, was 20.3% acute care and 21.1% during in inpatient rehabilitation. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed a significant association of pneumonia with occurrence of pressure ulcers (P?≤?0.001, OR?=?2.3 and 2.2 respectively), the American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale grades (P?Conclusion: A higher presence of pressure ulcers was found in individuals with pneumonia, after adjusting for injury severity, age, sex, and utilization of mechanical ventilation. Impaired inflammatory response and decreased mobility in individuals with pneumonia may predispose these individuals to develop pressure ulcers. Surveillance and preventive measures for pressure ulcers should be rigorous in individuals with SCI and pneumonia.
