Hi Paul, In regard to walking speed in old people. If walk slower than 1.8 mph decreased survival. My guess if live in NYC and walk slower than 1.8 mph you are going to road kill when try to cross the street. On other hand if walk faster than 2.3 mph good chance can make across the street.

“We’re continuing to investigate and take action to protect patient health and safety from products in this angiotensin II receptor blocker class that have been found to have dangerous impurities. As part of that investigation, we’ve uncovered serious manufacturing violations at ZHP, which is one of the manufacturing facilities that has been linked to these products. The issues cited in the warning letter are associated with the nitrosamine impurities found in these drugs, and these violations reveal a disturbing lack of oversight at this API manufacturer that puts patients at risk,” said FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, in a press statement announcing the warning letter.

In addition, as a “foreign private issuer,” we are exempt from the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements and certain individual executive compensation information, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Furthermore, foreign private issuers are not required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, while U.S. domestic issuers that are accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 75 days after the end of each fiscal year and U.S. domestic issuers that are large accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year. Additionally, as a “foreign private issuer,” we are also not subject to the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) promulgated under the Exchange Act. These exemptions and leniencies reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections to which you are entitled as an investor.

If he is taking a Statin drug and he is not already taking the Ubiquinol form of CoQ 10, he should find a doctor that will help him add it.

        On October 31, 2016, we completed our IPO, in which we issued and sold 7,049,230 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $13.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds to us of $82.8 million after deducting $6.4 million of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs of $2.4 million. On November 29, 2016, we completed the sale of an additional 1,057,385 shares of common stock to the underwriters under the underwriters’ option in the IPO to purchase additional shares of common stock at the public offering price of $13.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds to us of $12.8 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $1.0 million.

        Myasthenia gravis, or MG, is a rare, complement-mediated, autoimmune disease that causes weakness in the skeletal muscles. Patients with MG present with muscle weakness that characteristically becomes increasingly severe with repeated use and recovers with rest. Muscle weakness can be localized to specific muscles, such as those responsible for eye movements, but often progresses to affect a broader range, including head, limb, and respiratory muscles. This is often described as the generalized, or severe, form of the disease. We initiated a Phase 2 clinical trial with zilucoplan for gMG in the fourth quarter of 2017. In August 2018, we announced the early completion of enrollment of 44 patients in our Phase 2 trial in gMG, surpassing our original enrollment target of 36 patients. In November 2018, we announced completion of dosing of all patients, and we reported positive top-line data in December 2018. Based on these top-line data, we plan to engage with regulatory agencies, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, in the first half of 2019 regarding the design of a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating zilucoplan versus placebo in patients with gMG and expect to initiate the global Phase 3 clinical trial in the second half of 2019.

An eighth family and a ninth family, both having PCT International Applications filed in 2017 and two pending US applications, are directed to uses of Aramchol for treating and inhibiting fibrosis. The two PCT Applications will enter National Phase by May 2019. If granted and the appropriate maintenance, renewal, annuity or other governmental fees are paid, the non-extended term of this patent family is due to expire on November 10, 2037. In addition, a US Continuation-in-part claiming priority to all of the above applications was filed in November 2018 and claims the treatment and inhibition of fibrosis by a regimen of 300 mg of Aramchol twice daily. The improved bio-availability of Aramchol is supported by the pharmacological model based on the preclinical and the ARREST data.

I think for those from colder climates excessive sweating should also be avoided for this reason. For those originating from hotter climates I believe the converse may be true – I think they should be sweating to help out their kidneys excrete and/or keep their proteins level low – the UK’s population from the India sub-continent suffers kidney failure at a significantly higher rate than the indigenous population, even when both have type 2 diabetes.

While naferelin microparticles were being developed, ICI Pharma was working on a PLG implant for the one-month extended release of goserelin, another LHRH analog. This work led to the launch of Zoladex (goserelin) in 1990 by ICI Pharma. Sanofi’s Profact Depot for the two- to three-month delivery of buserelin is another PLG/LHRH implant on the market.
