A Systematic Review of Yoga Interventions on the Mental Health of Nursing Professionals and Students.

This systematic review aimed to evaluate the impact of yoga interventions on preventing and alleviating mental health issues, including stress, anxiety, burnout, depression, and other related factors among nursing professionals and students. The review adhered to the PRISMA guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024512366). A comprehensive literature search was conducted in Google Scholar and PubMed using keywords such as "nursing students," "nursing professionals," "yoga interventions," and "mental health.

Characterization of residue-specific glutathionylation of CSF proteins in multiple sclerosis - A MS-based approach.

Reduction of a disulfide linkage between cysteine residues in proteins, a standard step in the preanalytical preparation of samples in conventional proteomics approach, presents a challenge to characterize S-glutathionylation of proteins. S-glutathionylation of proteins has been reported in medical conditions associated with high oxidative stress. In the present study, we attempted to characterize glutathionylation of CSF proteins in patients with multiple sclerosis which is associated with high oxidative stress.

Assessment of Cysteine Reactivity of Human Hemoglobin at Its Residue Level: A Mass Spectrometry-Based Approach.

In general, the reactivity of cysteine residues of proteins is measured by 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) kinetics using spectrophotometry. Proteins with several cysteine residues may exhibit varying DTNB kinetics but residue level information can only be obtained with the prior knowledge of their three-dimensional structure. However, this method is limited in its application to the proteins containing chromophores having overlapping absorption profile with 2-nitro-5-thiobenzoic acid, such as hemoglobin (Hb).

Clinico-immunological changes post-immunotherapy with Periplaneta americana.

Background: Cockroach proteins induce allergies including asthma in predisposed individuals. Well-designed controlled studies are required to show the effect of cockroach immunotherapy (IT). This study is aimed to assess changes in clinical and immunological parameters post-IT with Periplaneta americana extract.

Clinico-immunologic study on immunotherapy with mixed and single insect allergens.

Background: Immunotherapy (IT) is practiced mainly with mixed and single allergen vaccines. But studies are rare with mixed allergen preparations.

Objective: The objective of this study is to study mix and single insect allergen IT in patients of allergic rhinitis and asthma.

Current immunological approaches for management of allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma.

A large population world over is affected with allergic diseases and asthma. Pharmacotherapy for allergic diseases and asthma is effective in controlling symptoms but on discontinuation of medication, symptoms reoccur. In contrast, immunotherapy modifies and corrects the underlying pathological immune responses in an antigen-specific manner.

Immunotherapy with mosquito (Culex quinquefasciatus) extract: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study.

Background: Mosquito allergy is well established, but mosquito immunotherapy requires validation using clinical and immunologic variables.

Objective: To evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of specific immunotherapy with Culex quinquefasciatus (mosquito) extract.

Methods: We performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of immunotherapy for 1 year in 40 patients with asthma, rhinitis, or both.

Stability of protease-rich periplaneta Americana allergen extract during storage: formulating preservatives to enhance shelf life.

Allergenic proteins in extracts degrade rapidly and lose potency on storage. Hence, formulation of optimum conditions is required to enhance shelf life of extracts for proper allergy diagnosis and immunotherapy. In the present study, allergenic potency of P.
