Article Abstract
We characterized cromolyn sodium (CS) hydrates and evaluated their molecular states in low-dose formulations using Na-multiquantum magic-angle spinning (MQMAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. Two CS hydrates, low-water-content hydrated form and high-water-content hydrated form containing 2-3 and 5-6 hydrates, respectively, were prepared by humidification. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that these CS hydrates contained sodium channel structures and that water molecules were adsorbed on the sodium nucleus. (13) C-cross-polarization/MAS NMR spectra of these hydrates revealed similar results, confirming that the water molecules were adsorbed not on the cromolyn skeletons but mainly on the sodium nucleus. In contrast, (23) Na-MQMAS NMR analysis allowed us to clearly distinguish these hydrates without discernible effects from quadrupolar interaction. Thus, MQMAS NMR analysis is a valuable tool for evaluating salt drugs and their formulations.

Background: Diverse correlations between structural brain abnormalities and the clinical feature of bulimia nervosa (BN) have been identified in previous observational studies.
Objective: To explore the bidirectional causality between BN and brain structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) phenotypes.
Methods: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of 2441 participants identified genetic variants associated with disordered eating and predicted BN, whereas UK Biobank 3D-T1 MRI data were used to analyze brain structural phenotypes.

Non-hydrogenative para-hydrogen-induced polarization (nhPHIP) has proven a powerful tool for the enhanced NMR detection of several classes of metabolites in complex mixtures. Particularly, compounds carrying an α-amino acid motif have been previously detected and quantified in biological samples and natural extracts at submicromolar concentrations using 2D nhPHIP NMR spectroscopy. This technique is here applied for the first time in a semi-targeted metabolomics NMR study on urine from patients suffering from Pyridoxine-Dependent Epilepsy (PDE), currently diagnosed by the presence of dilute unique biomarkers.

Purpose: Targeted therapy with lenvatinib is a preferred option for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, however, predicting its efficacy remains challenging. This study aimed to build a nomogram integrating clinicoradiological indicators and radiomics features to predict the response to lenvatinib in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
Methods: This study included 211 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma from two centers, who were allocated into the training (107 patients), internal test (46 patients) and external test set(58 patients).
