Study of the Effects of Nicotine and Caffeine for the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 2022 Sep 19. doi: 10.1007/s12010-022-04155-5. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTParkinson's disease (PD) is considered to be a highly severe neurological disorder. PD occurs due to a decrease in dopamine production by the degeneration of dopamine-secreting neurons. Genetic mutations, environmental toxins and lifestyle are some of the risk factors of the progressive neurodegenerative disorder PD. Parkin protein, which is encoded by the PARK gene, is one of the important proteins, which is one of the causative agents. The Parkin protein has several mutations which lead to the development of the disease. ...

N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists in improving cognitive deficits following traumatic brain injury: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Although some benefits were observed, there are still some concerns regarding the efficacy and safety of NMDAR antagonists in improving post-TBI cognitive deficits. Further research is required to examine whether (i) these agents, notably amantadine, could accelerate cognitive improvement and shorten the hospital stay, (ii) these agents affect different cognitive domains/subdomains in the same direction, (iii) an optimal therapeutic time window exists, (iv) a member of this drug class can be proved to be effective without interfering in non-excitotoxic actions of glutamate, (v) they can be more effective as par...

Serendipity and Observations in Functional Neurosurgery: From James Parkinson ’s Stroke to Hamani’s & amp; Lozano ’s Flashbacks
Background: Serendipity and observations have a noble tradition in medicine, including neurology, and are responsible for many medical treatments (carbamazepine for tic douloureux, amantadine for Parkinson ’s disease, gabapentin for restless legs…). We aimed at examining the contribution of serendipity and observations to functional neurosurgery. Scholarly publications relevant to the history of functional neurosurgery for movement and psychiatric disorders were reviewed, starting from the pre-ste reotactic era. The documents were scrutinized with respect to indications for surgery, surgical methods, and brain targets,...
