To assess the adherence rate of patients durin...

Sep 10th, 2021 - Opioids are effective analgesics, but cause side effects including sedation, respiratory depression, low blood pressure, nausea, and constipation. Gabapentin enacarbil, which is a FDA approved drug for post herpetic neuralgia (nerve pain related to shingles) and restless leg syndrome, may decrease your need for narcotics and thus decrease the risk of side effects. The investigator hopes this st...

Sep 10th, 2021 - Alzheimer's disease is devastating in terms of personal wellbeing as well as for society. Any effort to prevent and/or treat this disease is always sought after. Recently, an exciting new possibility was opened by modulating a cellular component called RXR-PPARG. A successful experimental treatment for Alzheimer's was found by activating RXR. But we previously showed that a component of soya, i...
