Abstract	Ets-related gene (ERG) is overexpressed as a fusion protein in prostate cancer. During metastasis, the pathological role of ERG is associated with cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis. Here, we hypothesized that miRNAs regulate ERG expression through its 3'UTR. Several bioinformatics tools were used to identify miRNAs and their binding sites on 3'UTR of ERG. The selected miRNAs expression was analyzed in prostate cancer samples by qPCR. The miRNAs overexpression was induced in prostate cancer cells (VCaP) to analyze ERG expression. Reporter gene assay was performed to evaluate the ERG activity in response to selected miRNAs. The expression of ERG downstream target genes was also investigated through qPCR after miRNAs overexpression. To observe the effects of selected miRNAs on cell proliferation and migration, scratch assay was performed to calculate the cell migration rate. miR-4482 and miR-3912 were selected from bioinformatics databases. miR-4482 and -3912 expression were decreased in prostate cancer samples, as compared to controls (p<0.05 and p<0.001), respectively. Overexpression of miR-4482 and miR-3912 significantly reduced ERG mRNA (p<0.001 and p<0.01), respectively) and protein (p<0.01) in prostate cancer cells. The transcriptional activity of ERG was significantly reduced (p<0.01) in response to miR-4482 and-3912. ERG angiogenic targets and cell migration rate was also reduced significantly (p<0.001) after miR-4482 and -3912 over-expression. This study indicates that miR-4482 and -3912 can suppress the ERG expression and its target genes, thereby, halt prostate cancer progression. These miRNAs may be employed as a potential therapeutic target for the miRNA-based therapy against prostate cancer.

Abstract	It is anticipated that between 1 in 10, 000 and 1 in 30, 000 pregnancies will be affected by acute pancreatitis (AP). The authors wanted to evaluate the impact of epidural analgesia on maternal and fetal outcomes and its effectiveness in the pain treatment of obstetric patients with AP. Methodology: The period for this cohort research was from January 2022 to September 2022. Fifty pregnant women with AP symptoms were enrolled in the study. Conservative medical management was done using intravenous (i.v.) analgesics, including fentanyl and tramadol. Fentanyl was infused i.v. at a rate of 1 µg/kg every hour, while tramadol was bolused i.v. at 100 mg/kg every 8 h. Boluses of 10-15 ml of 0.1% ropivacaine were injected into the L1-L2 interspace at 2-3-h intervals to provide high lumbar epidural analgesia. Results: In this study, 10 patients were given an i.v. infusion of fentanyl, and 20 patients were given tramadol boluses. Epidural analgesia showed the most promising results decreasing the visual analog scale score from 9 to 2 in half of the patients. Most fetal complications were noticed in the tramadol group, including prematurity, respiratory distress, and babies requiring noninvasive ventilation. Conclusion: Patients with AP during pregnancy may benefit from a new technique for simultaneous analgesia during labor and cesarean section administered via a single catheter. When AP is detected and treated during pregnancy, the mother and child benefit from pain control and recovery.

Abstract	Objective: To determine the left ventricular systolic dysfunction and the association of various factors with this dysfunction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Pak Emirates Military Hospital, Rawalpindi Pakistan, from Dec 2020 to May 2021. Methodology: We included the patients diagnosed with sleep apnea syndrome by a consultant pulmonologist based on a sleep study. Patients were labelled as having left ventricular systolic dysfunction if the ejection fraction was less than 40% on echocardiography. Results: Eighty patients diagnosed with sleep apnea syndrome were included in the study. The mean age of the study participants was 48.551±9.971 years. Out of 80 patients, 19(23.75%) had left ventricular systolic dysfunction on echocardiography, while 61(76.25%) had no evidence of left ventricular systolic dysfunction. With the application of relevant statistical tests, we found that patients with high body mass index and the presence of comorbid illnesses had a statistically significant relationship (p-value<0.05) with the presence of left ventricular systolic dysfunction among patients with sleep apnea syndrome. Conclusion: Considerable number of patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea syndrome showed the presence of left ventricular systolic dysfunction on echocardiography. High Body mass index and comorbid illnesses emerged as risk factors for left ventricular systolic dysfunction in our study population.

Abstract	Aim: The aim was to compare the efficacy and safety of lansoprazole plus levosulpiride over esomeprazole. Methodology: This randomized control trial recruited 1000 participants having symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and erosive esophagitis and they were blindly randomized into two groups in a 1:1 ratio with appropriate concealment. Group 1 was given lansoprazole plus levosulpiride combination twice daily whereas group 2 was prescribed only esomeprazole twice daily. The primary efficacy endpoint was the healing of erosive esophagitis and GERD at week 49. Secondary assessments included improvement in quality of life. Participants' quality of life was assessed before starting the treatment and post-treatment using a short-form health survey questionnaire (SF-36). Results: The lansoprazole plus levosulpiride group had significantly lower rates of positive postintervention GERD and erosive esophagitis status, and higher rates of sustained resolution of heartburn compared to the esomeprazole alone group. However, the lansoprazole plus levosulpiride group also had a higher risk of nausea. Conclusion: Lansoprazole plus levosulpiride is a more effective and safe treatment for GERD than esomeprazole alone. Participants in the lansoprazole plus levosulpiride group showed a significantly higher rate of sustained resolution of GERD, lower rates of postintervention GERD and erosive esophagitis status, and a higher incidence of nausea compared to the esomeprazole alone group. Although quality of life worsened in both groups, adverse effects did not significantly differ. These findings strongly support the use of lansoprazole plus levosulpiride as a preferred treatment option for GERD and erosive esophagitis, which could have significant clinical implications for managing this common condition.

Abstract	Objective: To assess the difference between mean sleep (PSQI) scores in the patients with head and neck tumours with and without the psychiatric morbidity; and assess the associated socio-demographic factors. Study design: Descriptive cross-sectional study. Place and duration of study: Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS), Islamabad, from May to November 2017. Methodology: One hundred and seventy patients suffering from the tumours of head and neck region were analysed in this study, which were treated in the E.N.T Department. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to record the sleep quality of the study participants. General Health Questionnaire 12 (GHQ-12) was used to look for the presence of psychiatric morbidity among these patients. Mean sleep scores were compared in the patients with and without the presence of psychiatric morbidity. Relationship of the socio-demographic factors was also studied with the presence of poor sleep quality among the study participants. Results: A total of 170 patients filled the PSQI; out of them, 58 (34.1%) had scores lying within the range of normal sleep quality while 112 (65.9%) had insufficient quality of sleep. One hundred and eight (63.5%) patients had significant psychiatric morbidity; whereas, 62 (36.5%) had no psychiatric morbidity on GHQ-12. Mean PSQI score in patients without psychiatric morbidity was (6.2 ±3.2) while in the patients with psychiatric morbidity was 9.4 ±4.6 (p <0.001). Conclusion: Patients suffering from head and neck tumours showed high frequency of both poor sleep quality and psychiatric morbidity. Patients with presence of psychiatric morbidity or who had undergone surgical resection of tumour should be routinely screened for the sleep problems.

Abstract	Soil contamination with toxic heavy metals [such as arsenic (As)] is becoming a serious global problem due to rapid development of social economy. Silicon (Si), being an important fertilizer element, has been found effective in enhancing plant tolerance against biotic and abiotic stresses. For this purpose, we have designed the current experiment to explore the contribution of Si in mediating growth and eco-physiology by alleviating As stress in a leafy vegetable spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.). Fifteen days old seedlings of S. oleracea were subjected to the different concentrations of As, i.e., 0 (no As), 50, and 100 µM in the soil which were also supplied with the different exogenous levels of Si, i.e., 0 (no Si), 1.5, and 3 mM. Results from the present study revealed that the As toxicity induced a substantial decreased in shoot length, root length, number of leaves, leaf area, shoot fresh weight, root fresh weight, shoot dry weight, root dry weight, chlorophyll-a, chlorophyll-b, total chlorophyll, carotenoid content, net photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, transpiration rate, soluble sugar, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar contents, calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺), iron (Fe²⁺), and phosphorus (P) contents in the roots and shoots of the plants. In contrast, increasing levels of As in the soil significantly (P < 0.05) increased As concentration in the roots and shoots of the plants, phenolic content, malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), electrolyte leakage (EL), fumaric acid, acetic acid, citric acid, formic acid, malic acid, oxalic acid contents in the roots of the plants. Although, the activities of enzymatic antioxidants such as superoxidase dismutase, peroxidase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase in the roots and shoots of the plants and non-enzymatic such as phenolic, flavonoid, ascorbic acid, and anthocyanin contents were initially increased with the exposure of 50 µM As, but decreased by the increasing the As concentration 100 µM in the soil. Addition of Si into the soil significantly alleviated As toxicity effects on S. oleracea by improving photosynthetic capacity and ultimately plant growth. Increased activities of antioxidant enzymes in Si-treated plants seem to play a role in capturing stress-induced reactive oxygen species as was evident from lower level of MDA, H₂O₂, MDA, and EL in Si-treated plants. Research findings, therefore, suggested that Si application can ameliorate As toxicity in S. oleracea seedlings and resulted in improved plant growth and composition under metal stress as depicted by balanced exudation of organic acids.

Abstract	Nanoherbicides are articulated by exploiting the prospective of nanotechnology for effectively delivering chemical and biological herbicides using nanomaterial‐based herbicide combinations. The nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray diffraction and FT-IR. On the targeted weeds, the nanoherbicides were sprayed at the third to fourth leaf stage. Six different doses were applied. The mortality and visual injury caused by both chitosan-based nanoherbicides reached 100% at the recommended dose of standard herbicide. The 5-fold lower dose exhibited weed density and maximum wheat yield and related parameters. For the same traits, the nanoherbicide at 10-fold lower dose of commercial herbicides showed a comparable influence as the suggested dose. The size of both herbicides was found to be 35–65 nm. It was observed that the clodinofop-propargyl nanoherbicide has an intense peak appearing at a 2θ value of 29.83°, corresponding to the (176) plane of the anatase phase and NPs of fenoxaprop-P-ethyl showed an intense peak around the 2θ value of 30.55° corresponding to the (74) plane of the anatase phase. The FT-IR spectra of fenoxaprop-P-ethyl clearly showed that the major functional groups were located in the FT-IR region between 610 and 1,840 cm−1 and the major functional ones of clodinofop propargyl were located in the FT-IR region between 640 and 1,740 cm−1. Nanoherbicides could restore the efficacy of conventional herbicides by improving stability and reducing toxicity.
