    Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV), a global malady, causes acute and chronic hepatitis leading to permanent liver damage, hepatocellular carcinoma, and death. Modern anti-HCV therapies are efficient, but mostly inaccessible for residents of underdeveloped regions. To innovate more effective treatments at affordable cost, medicinal plant-based products need to be explored. The aim of this article is to review plant constituents in the light of putative anti-HCV mechanisms of action, and discuss existing problems, challenges, and future directions for their potential application in therapeutic settings. One hundred sixty literatures were collected by using appropriate search strings via scientific search engines: Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus. Bibliography was prepared using Mendeley desktop software. We found a substantial number of plants that were reported to inhibit different stages of HCV life cycle. Traditional medicinal plants such as Phyllanthus amarus Schumach. and Thonn., Eclipta alba (L.) Hassk., and Acacia nilotica (L.) Delile exhibited strong anti-HCV activities. Again, several phytochemicals such as epigallocatechin-3-gallate, honokilol, punicalagin, and quercetin have shown broad-spectrum anti-HCV effect. We have presented promising phytochemicals like silymarin, curcumin, glycyrrhizin, and camptothecin for nanoparticle-based hepatocyte-targeted drug delivery. Nevertheless, only a few animal studies have been performed to validate the anti-HCV effect of these plant products. Again, insufficient clinical evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of herbal medications remain a problem. Selected plants products could be developed as novel therapeutics for HCV patients only after scrupulous evaluation of their safety and efficacy in a clinical set-up.

    Abstract We contrast Dirac's theory of transition probabilities and the theory of nonadiabatic transition probabilities, applied to a perturbed system that is coupled to a bath. In Dirac's analysis, the presence of an excited state |k0⟩ in the time-dependent wave function constitutes a transition. In the nonadiabatic theory, a transition occurs when the wave function develops a term that is not adiabatically connected to the initial state. Landau and Lifshitz separated Dirac's excited-state coefficients into a term that follows the adiabatic theorem of Born and Fock and a nonadiabatic term that represents excitation across an energy gap. If the system remains coherent, the two approaches are equivalent. However, differences between the two approaches arise when coupling to a bath causes dephasing, a situation that was not treated by Dirac. For two-level model systems in static electric fields, we add relaxation terms to the Liouville equation for the time derivative of the density matrix. We contrast the results obtained from the two theories. In the analysis based on Dirac's transition probabilities, the steady state of the system is not an equilibrium state; also, the steady-state population ρkk,s increases with increasing strength of the perturbation and its value depends on the dephasing time T2. In the nonadiabatic theory, the system evolves to the thermal equilibrium with the bath. The difference is not simply due to the choice of basis because the difference remains when the results are transformed to a common basis.

    Abstract Herein, we report a highly efficient Ag(I)-catalyzed indolyzation with Friedel-Crafts alkylation through a cascade cyclization strategy for accessing valuable hybrid heterocycles for the first time. This general strategy consists of forming four C-C/C-N/C-O bonds toward dual annulation reactions of 2-alkynylanilines with methyl benzoate-2-carboxaldehydes and aromatic amines, as well as with salicylaldehydes and malononitrile.

    Abstract Background: Liver abscess (LA) is an important cause of morbidity in children, especially in tropical countries. There is a paucity of data in pediatric LA with no standard guidelines regarding the best modality of treatment and drainage. With a large influx of patients at our center and protocol-based management; we aimed to study clinic-radiologic profile, risk factors, complications and outcomes of children with liver abscess and assessed possible predictors for poor outcomes.
    Materials and methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted from January 2019 to September 2019 at a tertiary care hospital in India. Records of all children (<12 years of age) with ultrasonographically diagnosed liver abscess were accessed for clinic-radiological and demographic profile, laboratory investigations, treatment, complications and outcomes. Patients were categorized into favorable or unfavorable groups based on predefined criteria and were compared for possible predictors of poor outcomes. Outcomes for the protocol-based management were analyzed.
    Results: There were 120 cases of pediatric liver abscess with a median age of 5 years at presentation. The commonest clinical features were fever (100%) and pain in the abdomen (89.16%). The majority of liver abscesses were solitary (78.4%) and in the right lobe (73.3%). Malnutrition was present in 27.5%, overcrowding for 76.5% of patients and worm infestation in 2.5% of patients. Age-related leukocytosis ( P = 0.004), neutrophilia ( P = 0.013), elevated Aspartate transaminase ( P = 0.008), elevated alanine transaminase ( P = 0.007) and hypoalbuminemia ( P = 0.014) were significantly more in the unfavorable group. Overall, 29.2% of patients underwent conservative management with antibiotics alone, 25.0% underwent percutaneous needle aspiration (PNA), 49.1% underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous drain (PCD) insertion and open surgical drainage (OSD) was needed in a single patient. The success rate was 100% for conservative management, 76.6% for PNA, 94.7% for PCD and 100% for OSD with an overall mortality of 2.5%.
    Conclusions: Age-related leukocytosis, neutrophilia, elevated aspartate transaminase or alanine transaminase and hypoalbuminemia at presentation are predictors of poor outcomes in pediatric liver abscess. Protocol-based management leads to the appropriate use of PNA and PCD while decreasing mortality and morbidity related to either.
