TL;DR: In this clinical trial, 200 patients were randomly allocated to four groups and intravenous injection of TXA seems to be much more effective in terms of reducing hemoglobin drop and transfused units; and what's more TXA injection by drain is more effective regarding to reducing postoperative drainage.
Abstract: The ideal method of providing tranexamic acid (TXA) for decreasing hemoglobin drop after TKA is still controversial. In this clinical trial, 200 patients were randomly allocated to four groups. In group 1,500 mg TXA was administered intravenously. In group 2, the joint irrigated with 3 g of TXA in 100 cc of saline. In group 3, 1.5 g of TXA was injected through the drain. Group 4 did not take TXA. Albeit all methods had a statistical effect on hemoglobin drop, drainage and number of transfused units when compared to controls, but intravenous injection of TXA seems to be much more effective in terms of reducing hemoglobin drop and transfused units; and what's more TXA injection by drain is more effective regarding to reducing postoperative drainage.

TL;DR: The results suggest that Cu2+-induced liver toxicity is the result of metal’s disruptive effect on liver hepatocyte mitochondrial respiratory chain that is the obvious cause of Cu2-induced ROS formation, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial membrane potential decline, and cytochrome c expulsion which start cell death signaling.
Abstract: Oxidative damage has been implicated in disorders associated with abnormal copper metabolism and also Cu(2+) overloading states. Besides, mitochondria are one of the most important targets for Cu(2+), an essential redox transition metal, induced hepatotoxicity. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mitochondrial toxicity mechanisms on isolated rat liver mitochondria. Rat liver mitochondria in both in vivo and in vitro experiments were obtained by differential ultracentrifugation and the isolated liver mitochondria were then incubated with different concentrations of Cu(2+). Our results showed that Cu(2+) induced a concentration and time-dependent rise in mitochondrial ROS formation, lipid peroxidation, and mitochondrial membrane potential collapse before mitochondrial swelling ensued. Increased disturbance in oxidative phosphorylation was also shown by decreased ATP concentration and decreased ATP/ADP ratio in Cu(2+)-treated isolated mitochondria. In addition, collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), mitochondrial swelling, and release of cytochrome c following of Cu(2+) treatment were well inhibited by pretreatment of mitochondria with CsA and BHT. Our results showed that Cu(2+) could interact with respiratory complexes (I, II, and IV). This suggests that Cu(2+)-induced liver toxicity is the result of metal's disruptive effect on liver hepatocyte mitochondrial respiratory chain that is the obvious cause of Cu(2+)-induced ROS formation, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial membrane potential decline, and cytochrome c expulsion which start cell death signaling.

TL;DR: This review presents an overview of currently available studies on preventive properties and essential molecular mechanisms involved in various diseases as well as several in vitro and in vivo studies have revealed the effectiveness of resveratrol.
Abstract: Resveratrol (3, 5, 4'-trihydroxystilbene) is a nonflavonoid polyphenol that naturally occurs as phytoalexin. It is produced by plant sources such as grapes, apples, blueberries, plums, and peanut. This compound has critical roles in human health and is well known for its diverse biological activities such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Nowadays, due to rising incidence of different diseases such as cancer and diabetes, efforts to find novel and effective disease-protective agents have led to the identification of plant-derived compounds such as resveratrol. Furthermore, several in vitro and in vivo studies have revealed the effectiveness of resveratrol in various diseases such as diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, obesity, inflammatory, neurodegenerative, and age-related diseases. This review presents an overview of currently available studies on preventive properties and essential molecular mechanisms involved in various diseases.
