Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapeutics, Ahead of Print. BackgroundPharmacogenomics aims to optimise drug therapy based on genetic makeup, but traditional clinical trial design faces challenges with complexity, cost and data integration.PurposeThis study explores integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI), specifically large language models (LLMs) like Llama3 8B, Mistral 7B v0.3 and Phi-3 Mini 3.8B, into pharmacogenomics clinical trial design through Retrieval-Augmented Generation frameworks and local knowledge bases to address the challenges.Materials and MethodsWe conducted a comparative analysis of LLMs, evaluating the accuracy, relevancy, response time and operational efficiency with a case study that assessed LLMs’ capacity to address key trial design…
Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapeutics, Ahead of Print. Background: Lumbar canal stenosis (LCS) is a degenerative spinal condition causing narrowing of the spinal canal, leading to nerve compression. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, tingling, numbness, and difficulty walking, which worsen with standing and improvement with sitting. Conventional treatments offer symptomatic relief, while surgery carries risks and a high recurrence rate. Ayurveda provides a holistic, non-surgical approach through Shodhana (purification) and Shamana Chikitsa (palliative care). Purpose: This study evaluates the effectiveness of Ayurvedic therapies, including Panchakarma and oral medications, in managing lumbar canal stenosis. Methods: A 68-year-old male presented with lower back…
