Abstract	Following the cloning and characterization of the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), a growing body of research has identified the important role of TRPV1 and related channels in diverse physiological functions including temperature transduction and pain signalling. As a result, there has been a great deal of interest by the pharmaceutical industry to develop small molecule modulators of the activity of these channels for potential therapeutic use. While most of the efforts have focused on examining the role of TRPV1 in nociception, more recent work has begun to assess the therapeutic utility of targeting other TRP channels. This manuscript is aimed at introducing the reader of this special issue to the promising new developments and findings as well as emerging challenges in the targeting of the thermoTRP family of receptors for clinical therapeutic use. This chapter will focus on current efforts from the pharmaceutical industry to develop highly potent and efficacious compounds that modulate TRP channel function. In particular, this chapter will highlight recent drug discovery activities around the transient receptor potential vanilloid family members TRPV1, TRPV3, and TRPV4, the transient receptor potential ankyrin family member TRPA1, and the transient receptor potential melastatin family member TRPM8. The majority of the work included in this chapter will focus on recent findings in the development of TRP modulators for pain indications; however, for certain targets where data exist, other indications will be discussed. The increasing number of small biotech and pharmaceutical companies pursuing targets in these families of ion channels highlights the perceived importance of these targets in the treatment of a variety of disease states including inflammatory and neuropathic pain, urinary incontinence, painful bladder syndrome, and even types of prostate cancer.

Abstract	Background: Knowing what to eat and realizing the significance of healthful eating habits are among the important steps to promoting eating behavior. The current study aims to assess the nutrition knowledge (NK) among a convenient sample in four different countries, determine the association between different demographic factors and NK, and investigate the need for future interventions on nutrition in the four selected countries. Methods: A cross-sectional multi-national survey study among a convenient sample of 8,191 subjects from Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan who undertook surveys between January 2019 and January 2020. A pre-tested interview questionnaire was utilized for data collection from study participants. It included three sections: i) Sociodemographic characteristics:. ii). Section two included twenty-one questions related to NK.. iii). Section three included one question about NK sources. Results: About three-quarters showed inadequate nutrition knowledge (73.1%). Youth (15-24 yrs.) were more dependent on social media, with 87% using it as a primary source of NK, while adults (≥ 25 yrs.) demonstrated that 43% of them used social media. In contrast, TV was more prominent among them, with participants' characteristics such as living with parents, body mass index, and country of residence showing no association with NK. However, female sex, education, and reading nutrition articles are significantly correlated with adequate knowledge (p < 0.001). Significant predictors of satisfactory knowledge were age, sex, education, living with parents, and reading nutrition articles. Conclusion: The study revealed low levels of NK indicating an urgent need to implement educational programs to promote nutrition knowledge. As NK is a modifiable determinant of diet intake and can positively impact the need for developing strategies in counselling and raising awareness among the general population to improve their health status.

Abstract	Objectives: In this study, we report long-term outcomes of high-risk, high-BMI (body mass index) patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Background: Short- and medium-term data appear to support the effectiveness of LSG, but long-term data to support its durability are sparse. Methods: A prospective database was reviewed on all high-risk patients who underwent LSG as part of a staged approach for surgical treatment of severe obesity between January 2002 and February 2004. We included only patients who did not proceed to second-stage surgery (gastric bypass). Analyzed data included demographics, BMI, comorbidities, and surgical outcomes. All partial gastrectomies were performed using a 50F bougie. Results: Seventy-four patients underwent LSG, and follow-up data were available on 69 of 74 patients (93%). The mean age was 50 years (25-78) and the mean number of co-morbidities was 9.6. Perioperative mortality (<30 days) was zero, and the incidence of short- and long-term postoperative complications was 15%. The mean overall follow-up time period was 73 months (38-95). Mean excess weight loss (EWL) at 72, 84, and 96 months after LSG was 52%, 43%, and 46%, respectively, with an overall EWL of 48%. The mean BMI decreased from 66 kg/m(2) (43-90) to 46 kg/m(2) (22-73). Seventy-seven percent of the diabetic patients showed improvement or remission of the disease. Conclusions: This study reports the longest follow-up of LSG patients thus far and supports the effectiveness, safety, and durability of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy as a definitive therapeutic option for severe obesity, even in high-risk, high-BMI patients.

Abstract	The clinical use of TRPV1 (transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily, member 1; also known as VR1) antagonists is based on the concept that endogenous agonists acting on TRPV1 might provide a major contribution to certain pain conditions. Indeed, a number of small-molecule TRPV1 antagonists are already undergoing Phase I/II clinical trials for the indications of chronic inflammatory pain and migraine. Moreover, animal models suggest a therapeutic value for TRPV1 antagonists in the treatment of other types of pain, including pain from cancer. We argue that TRPV1 antagonists alone or in conjunction with other analgesics will improve the quality of life of people with migraine, chronic intractable pain secondary to cancer, AIDS or diabetes. Moreover, emerging data indicate that TRPV1 antagonists could also be useful in treating disorders other than pain, such as urinary urge incontinence, chronic cough and irritable bowel syndrome. The lack of effective drugs for treating many of these conditions highlights the need for further investigation into the therapeutic potential of TRPV1 antagonists.

Abstract	Plasma membrane proteins of the solute carrier family 5 (SLC5) are responsible for sodium-coupled uptake of ions, sugars and nutrients in the vertebrate body. Mutations in SLC5 genes are the cause of several inherited human disorders. We have recently reported the cloning and transport properties of SGLT-1L, a Xenopus homologue of the sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT-1) [Nagata et al. (1999) Am. J. Physiol. 276: G1251 -G 1259]. Here, we describe the phylogenetic relationship of SGLT-1L with other members of the SLC5 family and characterize its expression during Xenopus embryogenesis and in organ cultures. Sequence comparisons and phylogenetic analyses of all known vertebrate SLC5 sequences indicated that Xenopus SGLT-1L encodes a novel SLC5 member, which shares highest amino acid identity with mammalian ST-1 proteins. Temporal and spatial expression of SGLT-1L during Xenopus embryogenesis was examined by whole mount in situ hybridization. Initiation of SGLT-1L expression occurred in the late tailbud embryo. Remarkably, expression was restricted to the developing pronephric kidney. SGLT-1L was highly expressed in tubular epithelia, but completely absent from the epithelia of the duct. Analysis of growth factor-treated animal caps indicated that expression of SGLT-1L could also be induced in organ cultures. Taken together, our findings indicate that the expression of sodium-dependent solute cotransporter genes in early segments of the excretory system appears to be conserved between pronephric and metanephric kidneys. Furthermore, we establish SGLT-1L as a novel, highly specific molecular marker for pronephric tubule epithelia undergoing maturation and terminal differentiation in Xenopus.

Abstract	Abstract The photovoltaic (PV) solar panels are negatively impacted by dust accumulation. The variance in dust density from point to point raises the risk of forming hot spots. Therefore, a prepared PDMS/SiO2 nanocoating was used to reduce the accumulated dust on the PV panels' surface. However, the effectiveness of these coatings is greatly influenced by geographical and climatic factors. Three identical PV modules were installed to run comparable experimental tests simultaneously. The first module is coated with the prepared PDMS/SiO2 nanocoating, the second is coated with commercial nanocoating, and the third module is uncoated and serves as a reference. The prepared nanocoating was hydrophobic and had a self-cleaning effect. The fill factors for the reference panel (RP), commercial-nanocoated panel (CNP), and prepared-nanocoated panel (PNP), were 0.68, 0.69, and 0.7, respectively. After 40 days of exposure to outdoor conditions, the dust densities on the RP and PNP panels' surfaces were 10 and 4.39 g/m2, respectively. Thus, the nanocoated panel's efficiency was found to be higher than that of the reference panel by 30.7%.

Abstract	Background: Ventral abdominal wall hernias are common lesions and may be associated with life-threatening complications. The application of laparoscopic principles to the treatment of ventral hernias has reduced recurrence rates from a range of 25% to 52% to a range of 3.4% to 9%. In this study, we review our experience and assess the clinical outcome of patients who have undergone laparoscopic repair of ventral hernias. Methods: We reviewed the outcome of 79 patients with more than 1 year of follow-up who underwent laparoscopic ventral hernia repair between March 1996 and December 2001. Patient demographics, hernia characteristics, operative parameters, and clinical outcomes were evaluated. Results: Of the 79 patients, 37 were males. Mean age was 55.8 years (range 28-81). Sixty-eight patients had incisional hernias, including 17 with recurrent hernias. Eleven patients had primary ventral hernias. The mean defect size was 103 cm(2) (range 4-510); incarceration was present in 22 patients (27.8%), and multiple (Swiss-cheese) defects in 20 (25.3%). Laparoscopic expanded polytetrafluoroethylene mesh repair by the modified Rives-Stoppa technique was completed in 78 (98.7%). One conversion occurred because of bowel injury. The mean operating time was 110 minutes (range 45-210) and mean hospital stay was 1.7 days (range 0-20), with 46 patients (58.2%) being discharged within 24 hours of surgery. Complications included seroma formation (3), chronic pain (3), prolonged ileus (1), hematoma formation (1), and missed bowel injury (1) for a complication rate of (11.4%). There were no deaths. After a follow-up of up to 6 years (a mean of 34 months), there were 4 recurrences (5%). Conclusion: The laparoscopic repair of ventral hernias is safe, effective, and durable with minimal morbidity. It is particularly successful in patients with recurrent lesions. The laparoscopic approach to ventral hernia repair should be considered the standard of care.

Abstract	Background: This study evaluates the feasibility of laparoscopic transfascial suture repair of umbilical hernias when combined with another laparoscopic procedure that potentially contaminates the peritoneal cavity. Method: From August 1997 to November 2001, 32 patients underwent laparoscopic umbilical suture repair in association with another laparoscopic procedure. The repair was performed with the Carter-Thomason suture passer. Results: Of the 32, 26 patients with more than 1-year follow-up were included in the study. The mean diameter of the umbilical hernia defect was 1.67 cm (range, 0.5 to 3). At a mean follow-up of 34 months (range, 12 to 60), there were only 2 recurrences (7.7%) both of which happened in patients with hernia defects larger than 2 cm in diameter. Apart from 2 wound infections, no other complications occurred. Conclusion: Laparoscopic suture repair of umbilical hernias with the suture passer method is effective and durable even when combined with other laparoscopic procedures that potentially contaminate the peritoneal cavity with bile or enteric contents.
