Planned outcomes The primary endpoint is intergroup difference in the number of intravitreal anti-VEGF injections to the study eye from baseline to week 48. Secondary and exploratory endpoints include safety and ophthalmologic and internal medical clinical parameters. Registration This study is registered at the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trial Registry (UMIN000033961) and Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCTs031180210).Spinal cord injury (SCI) is involved with abnormal expression of miRNAs (miRs) which are responsible for some IIry injury responses which include apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress. Mechanisms involving miRs induced apoptosis still needs to be investigated. In the present work we developed a rat model of SCI, followed by microarray analysis for expression of miRs at various time points after SCI. The locomotor activity was assessed by Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan score, lesion volume was analyzed by cresyl violet staining and TUNEL staining for extent of apoptosis at various time points of post SCI. Numbers of miRs were altered after 2 weeks of SCI among which miR-466c-3p was the most significantly down-regulated. Transfection with miR-466c-3p mimics caused overexpression of miR-466c-3p, also improvement in functional recovery, decrease in apoptosis of neuronal cells and lesion size was observed in SCI rats. The Luciferase assay suggested that miR-466c-3p suppressed the expression of Bcl-2 (apoptosis regulator). It was also evidenced that upon restoring the levels of Bcl-2 with the help of pc-DNA3-Bcl-2 halted the attenuating action of miR-466c-3p in hydrogen peroxide exposed N9 microglia cells. The findings suggested that miR-466c-3p may inhibit mitochondrial apoptotic pathway via blocking Bcl-2 and cleaved capase-9/-3in rats after SCI. Altogether, the results suggested that miR-466c-3p may exert attenuating effect on functional recovery and inhibit the apoptosis of neuronal cells via halting the mitochondrial apoptosis cascade in SCI rats indicating that miR-466c-3p can be attractive therapeutic candidate in treating SCI.With the emergence of the Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), researchers worldwide have started detecting the probable pathogenesis of the disease. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and angiotensin-converting enzymes have received a good deal of attention as possible pathways involved in 2019-nCoV pathogenesis. As the experiments seeking to find potential medications acting on these pathways are being conducted in the early phases, having an ecological worldview on the relationship between the prevalence of COVID-19 disease and the genetic differences in the genes involved in the RAS system could be valuable for the field. In this regard, we conducted a meta-analysis study of the prevalence of ACE (I/D) genotype in countries most affected by the COVID-19. In the meta-analysis, 48,758 healthy subjects from 30 different countries were evaluated in 116 studies, using the Comprehensive Meta-analysis software. The I/D allele frequency ratio was pooled by a random-effect model. H2DCFDA The COVID-19 prevalence data of death and recovery rates were evaluated as the latitudes for the meta-regression analysis. Our results demonstrated that with the increase of the I/D allele frequency ratio, the recovery rate significantly increased (point estimate 0.48, CI 95% 0.05-0.91, p = 0.027). However, there was no significant difference in the case of death rate (point estimate 1.74, CI 95% 4.5-1.04, p = 0.22). This ecological perspective coupled with many limitations does not provide a direct clinical relevance between the COVID-19 and RAS system, but it shows potential pathophysiological associations. Our results raise concerns about ethnic and genetic differences that could affect the effectiveness of the currently investigated RAS-associated medications in different regions.Compared with endovascular techniques, clipping of ruptured cerebral aneurysms has been sho
