Use of cannabinoids in the treatment of epilepsy
The present disclosure relates to the use of cannabidiol (CBD) for the reduction of total convulsive seizure frequency in the treatment of “treatment-resistant epilepsy” (TRE). In particular, the disclosure relates to the use of CBD of treating TRE when the TRE is Dravet syndrome; myoclonic absence seizures or febrile infection related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES). The disclosure further relates to the use of CBD in combination with one or more anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs).

IRON-SCORE AND IN VITRO METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING HIGH RISK DLBCL SUBJECTS AND THERAPEUTIC USES AND METHODS
The invention relates to the use of an iron-score based on the expression level of at least 2 genes, in particular at least 5, preferably at least 10, and even preferably 11 genes selected in the group consisting of ALAS1, HIF1A, LRP2, HMOX1, HMOX2, HFE, ISCA1, SLC25A37, PPOX, STEAP1 and TMPRSS6 involved in the iron metabolism, as a prognosis marker in subjects having DLBCL, in particular for identifying subjects with a poor outcome such as a relapse and/or death.

Methods of attenuating an immune response by inhibition of BFL1
The disclosure provides methods of modulating an immune response by inhibiting BFL1, and related methods for treating and preventing diseases and disorders characterized by inflammation, especially neutrophil induced inflammation.
Sorbic and benzoic acid and derivatives thereof enhance the activity of a neuropharmaceutical
Methods and compositions are provided for treating neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, depression, attention deficit disorder, mild cognitive impairment, dementia, and bipolar disorder. The methods entail administering to a patient diagnosed as having a neuropsychiatric disorder (e.g., schizophrenia, depression, attention deficit disorder, mild cognitive impairment, dementia bipolar disorder, etc.) or as at risk for a neuropsychiatric disorder a benzoic acid, benzoic acid salt, and/or benzoic acid derivative, and/or a sorbic acid, sorbic acid salt, and/or sorbic acid derivative, in combination with a neuropharmacological agent (e.g., an antipsychotic, an antidepressant, medications for attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, cognitive impairment, or dementia, etc.) where the benzoic acid, benzoic acid salt, or benzoic acid derivative, and/or a sorbic acid, sorbic acid salt, and/or sorbic acid derivative, is in an amount sufficient to increase the efficacy of the neuropharmacological agent.
