The challenges of caring for abdominal ostomy disorders have grown over the years. Because the literature shows no evidence of a tool to classify peristomal skin disorders, a study group comprised of seven enterostomal therapy nurses and four surgeons sought to provide an objective, reproducible, standardized classification instrument. A prospective, observational study was conducted
among eight ostomy centers across Italy. The 339 patient participants (272 men, 67 women, average age 63 [25 to 85] years) were divided into two groups according to onset of complications (less than or greater than 1 year); 800 digital photographs were taken to enhance observation and blood samples were drawn for additional data. From the data obtained, a classification scheme was created
and subsequently tested using four non-study group experts. The resulting instrument facilitated lesion interpretation and detection, including topography. Thus far, this is the first validated classification attempt not based on assessments of lesions attributable to entirely different etiopathogenetic factors. Further research to refine the tool and to correlate the additional data obtained from blood samples with the classification system is underway.

Sacs score from sacs to sacs 2.0 and beyond oral presentation_mario antoniniMario Antonini
The document discusses the development of the SACS instrument for classifying peristomal skin lesions. The original SACS study developed definitions and a classification system with 5 categories (L1-L4, LX) to assess and document peristomal skin disorders. SACS 2.0 aimed to improve the tool by classifying all observed lesions rather than just the most serious one, and adding category L5 for deep lesions involving tissues below the muscle fascia. The enhanced SACS 2.0 classification provides a more precise assessment of peristomal skin conditions to help clinicians diagnose issues and measure prevalence. Future work may involve a system for measuring wound size and severity to better guide ostomy device and treatment choices.

Enteral nutrition (EN) is the introduction of nutrients into the gastrointestinal tract through a tube placed in a natural or artifi cial stoma. Tubes may be passed into the stomach (gastrostomy) or the jejunum (jejunostomy) in patients who cannot obtain adequate nourishing via oral feeding. Following placement, nurses are typically responsible for management of gastrostomy or other enteral tube devices in both the acute and home care settings.
This document summarizes the results of an observational study assessing treatments for peristomal skin lesions. 331 patients in Italy with various types of stomas and skin lesions were enrolled. Lesions were classified according to SACS 2.0. Two topical treatments showed promising results: P5 (containing HA and silver) resolved all erythematous lesions within 4 weeks and helped prevent infection in other lesions. P6 (containing HA and collagen) healed 100% of L4/L5 lesions within 8 weeks and 98% of L3 lesions within 12 weeks. The study provides initial evidence that targeted topical treatments may help speed healing of specific peristomal skin lesions.
This document proposes revisions to the original SACS Classification for Peristomal Skin Disorders. The authors conducted a multi-center study observing lesions that could not be classified by the original SACS method. They defined a new L5 lesion involving loss of substance beyond the fascial plane. The study aimed to include this new lesion in the classification and classify all lesions present rather than just the most serious lesion. Based on the study findings, the authors propose a revised classification called SACS 2.0 that retains the original classification's objectivity while integrating the new L5 lesion and allowing for classification of multiple concurrent lesions.

About eight years have passed since the publication of the SACS Classification, the use of which has proved to be essential in Italy, not only on account of the particular characteristics of this instrument but also and above all as it is a point of reference for debate and discussion and aims to facilitate an objective awareness of peristomal skin lesions.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
