Sarcoidosis-Associated Sensory Ganglionopathy and Harlequin Syndrome: A Case Report
Conclusions: This case report demonstrates the possible autoimmune origin of both sensory ganglionopathy and Harlequin syndrome. It suggests that an autoimmune etiology for these disorders should be considered and the diagnostic workup should include screening for the most common autoimmune conditions.PMID:37629785 | PMC:PMC10456357 | DOI:10.3390/medicina59081495 (Source: Medicina (Kaunas))

Thin-film nanocomposite membranes for efficient removal of emerging pharmaceutical organic contaminants from water
Environ Res. 2023 Aug 17:116905. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116905. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMembranes are receiving significant attention to remove emerging organic micropollutants (OMPs) from wastewater and natural water sources. Herein, we report the facile preparation of a novel thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane with high permeability and efficient removal of OMPs. ZnO nanoparticles were first synthesized using the co-precipitation method and functionalized with N1-(3-Trimethoxysilylpropyl)diethylenetriamine to make the surface rich with amine groups and then synthesized nanomaterials were covalently cross-li...

Non-CGRP Antagonist/Non-Triptan Options for Migraine Disease Treatment: Clinical Considerations
Curr Pain Headache Rep. 2023 Aug 16. doi: 10.1007/s11916-023-01151-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: Although the association between CGRP and migraine disease is well-known and studied, therapies can target other pathways to minimize migraine symptoms. It is important to understand the role of these medications as options for migraine treatment and the varied mechanisms by which symptoms can be addressed. In the present investigation, the role of non-CGRP antagonist/non-triptan options for migraine disease therapy is reviewed, including NSAIDs, ß-blockers, calcium channel blockers, antidepressants, and ...

Combined exposure to microplastics and amitriptyline induced abnormal behavioral responses and oxidative stress in the eyes of zebrafish (Danio rerio)
In this study, we exposed zebrafish to MPs (2-μm polystyrene beads, 0.44 mg/L), AMI (2.5 μg/L), and their mixture for 7 days and investigated the alternation in their behaviors and ocular oxidative stress. As a result, combined exposure to MPs and AMI could significantly elevate locomotor activity, increase the frequency and duration of shoaling behavior in zebrafish, and alter their post-stimulation behaviors. Although combined exposure to MPs and AMI exhibited stronger behavioral toxicity than individual exposure, no significant interactive effects on the behavioral traits were detected, suggesting that the combined be...

Effects of Antidepressants on Sleep in Post-traumatic Stress Disorder: An Overview of Reviews
Curr Neuropharmacol. 2023 Aug 1. doi: 10.2174/1570159X21666230801144328. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAntidepressants are a commonly used, easily accessible, and overall safe treatment option for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The present review aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of antidepressants in treating sleep disturbances in patients with PTSD. PubMed and the Cochrane Li- brary were searched (July 2022) for systematic reviews and meta-analyses on the treatment of PTSD. Moreover, PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for individual trials investigating the antidepressant treatment of PTSD (up to ...

E-135 Dejerine-roussy syndrome in the setting of right sigmoid sinus thrombosis: a unique case report
DiscussionThis case illustrates the important clinical aspects and physical findings needed to diagnose DRS. The presence of focal allodynia and hyperalgesia with recent cerebrovascular incidents provides significant evidence for DRS. The purpose of this case is to provide awareness and to increase clinical suspicion of DRS during examination, especially in the setting of cerebral venous sinus occlusion as infarction alone may not present as atypical allodynia.Disclosures S.
