The mechanism of action of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), to which ketoprofen belongs, is based on their cyclo-oxigenase (COX) inhibiting action, concerning both subtype COX-1 constitutive isoform and COX-2 inducible isoform. Ketoprofen administration may be carried out by oral and parenteral routes as well as by topical application, which includes transdermic patch use. Following a synthetic description of the results obtained by several investigators on ketoprofen use, the Authors present a new formulation of the ketoprofen patch obtained by the so called DermaLight Technology.

    Incompressibility is established for three-dimensional and two-dimensional deformations of an anisotropic linearly elastic material, as conditions to be satisfied by the elastic compliances. These conditions make it straightforward to derive results for incompressible materials from those establish...

    General Relativity is extended into the quantum domain. A thought experiment is explored to derive a specific topological build-up for Planckian space-time. The presented arguments are inspired by Feynman's path integral for superposition and Wheeler's quantum foam of Planck mass mini black holes/w...
