floating drug delivery for peptic ulcer

 Floating drug delivery for peptic ulcer
These systems float over the gastric contents because they have low density than gastric content. Suitable for those drug candidates which have a short half-life, irritant action on the stomach, or for those drugs which are absorbed from the stomach, and drugs that have less retention time in the stomach.
 There are mainly two types of FDDS, 
1.non-effervescent 
2.effervescent FDDS. 
Non-effervescent floating tablets are mainly composed of gel forming and 
swellable cellulose

Eg floating matrix tablet of Tolpison 
hydrochloride by the using hot melt granulation method 
(HMG) and found that the tablet prepared by this method 
shows the significant result of gastroretention

Advantages of FDDS
1. Floating dosage forms provide a long duration of time for the effective exposure of the drug in the stomach [41].
2. It provides local action of drug-like in case of antacids.
3. FDDS minimizes the irritational effects of drugs by slow drug release.
4. Best alternate for the drugs, which are absorbed at the stomach site.

Brain connectivity improves human aesthetic responses to music

Brain connectivity improves human aesthetic responses to music Abstract: 1. white matter connectivity between sensory processing areas in the superior temporal gyrus and emotional and social processing areas in the insula and medial prefrontal cortex explains individual differences in reward sensitivity to music. 2.  findings provide the first evidence for a neural basis of individual differences in sensory access to the reward system, and suggest that social–emotional communication through the auditory channel may offer an evolutionary basis for music making as an aesthetically rewarding function in humans. 3.carried out by -- Using a combination of survey data, behavioral and psychophysiological measures and diffusion tensor imaging, Conclusion: Results from diffusion tensor imaging show that white matter connectivity between auditory perceptual regions (pSTG) and regions of the brain important for emo- tional and social processing (aIns, mPFC) reflect individual diffe...

pharmacogenomics

Pharmacogenomics 1.Pharmacogenomics is the study of the role of the genome in drug response. Its name reflects its combining of pharmacology and genomics. Pharmacogenomics analyzes how the genetic makeup of an individual affects his/her response to drugs.  2.pros Improve drug safety, and reduce ADRs; Tailor treatments to meet patients' unique genetic pre-disposition, identifying optimal dosing; Improve drug discovery targeted to human disease; and Improve proof of principle for efficacy trials 3.genome-wide technology on pharmacogenomics of mental illnesses including schizophrenia (SCZ), autism spectrum disorders (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). 4.The effectiveness and toxicities of medications used in secondary stroke prophylaxis, dementia, seizure disorders, multiple sclerosis (MS), and Parkinson disease (PD) are all influenced by genetic polymorphisms. 5.pharmacogenomic  used to study neurodegene...
