Painful stimuli elicit first-line reflexive defensive reactions and, in many cases, also evoke second-line recuperative behaviors, the latter of which reflects the sensing of tissue damage and the alleviation of suffering. The lateral parabrachial nucleus (lPBN), composed of external- (elPBN), dorsal- (dlPBN), and central/superior-subnuclei (jointly referred to as slPBN), receives sensory inputs from spinal projection neurons and plays important roles in processing affective information from external threats and body integrity disruption. However, the organizational rules of lPBN neurons that provoke diverse behaviors in response to different painful stimuli from cutaneous and deep tissues remain unclear. In this study, we used region-specific neuronal depletion or silencing approaches combined with a battery of behavioral assays to show that slPBN neurons expressing substance P receptor ( NK1R) (lPBN NK1R) are crucial for driving pain-associated self-care behaviors evoked by sustained noxious thermal and mechanical stimuli applied to skin or bone/muscle, while elPBN neurons are dispensable for driving such reactions. Notably, lPBN NK1R neurons are specifically required for forming sustained somatic pain-induced negative teaching signals and aversive memory but are not necessary for fear-learning or escape behaviors elicited by external threats. Lastly, both lPBN NK1R and elPBN neurons contribute to chemical irritant-induced nocifensive reactions. Our results reveal the functional organization of parabrachial substrates that drive distinct behavioral outcomes in response to sustained pain versus external danger under physiological conditions.

Metabolic diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes are marked by insulin resistance1,2. Cells within the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARC), which are crucial for regulating metabolism, become insulin resistant during the progression of metabolic disease3-8, but these mechanisms are not fully understood. Here we investigated the role of a specialized chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan extracellular matrix, termed a perineuronal net, which surrounds ARC neurons. In metabolic disease, the perineuronal net of the ARC becomes augmented and remodelled, driving insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction. Disruption of the perineuronal net in obese mice, either enzymatically or with small molecules, improves insulin access to the brain, reversing neuronal insulin resistance and enhancing metabolic health. Our findings identify ARC extracellular matrix remodelling as a fundamental mechanism driving metabolic diseases.
INTRODUCTION: Early identification of hypothermia or hyperthermia is of vital importance, and real-time monitoring of core temperature (CT) of the workers exposed to thermal environments is an extremely valuable tool. From the existing literature studies, the model developed by Buller et al. in their study of 2013 that generates real-time estimates of CT from heart rate (HR) measurements using the Kalman filter (KF) shows good potential for occupational application. However, some aspects could be improved to reliably handle the existing very wide range of workers and work activities. This study presents a real-time CT estimation model, called the Biphasic Kalman filter-based (BKFB) model, based on HR measurement, with characteristics suited to application in the occupational field.
METHODS: Thirteen healthy subjects (six female and seven male) were included in the study to perform three consecutive tasks simulating work activities. During each test, an ingestible CT sensor was used to measure CT and a HR sensor to measure HR. The KF methodology was used to develop the BKFB model.
RESULTS: An algorithm with a biphasic structure was developed using two different models for the increasing and decreasing phases of CT, with the ability to switch between the two based on an HR threshold. CT estimates were compared with CT measurements, and with respect to overall root mean square error (RMSE), the BKFB model achieved a sizeable reduction (0.28 ± 0.12°C) compared to the Buller et al. model (0.34 ± 0.16°C).
DISCUSSION: The BKFB model introduced some modifications over the Buller et al. model for a more effective application in the occupational field. It was developed using data collected from a sample of workers (heavily weighted toward middle-aged, not very fit, and with a considerable fraction of female workers), and it also included two different modeling of CT (for the up- and down-phases), which allowed for better behavioral modeling in the two different stages. The BKFB model provides CT estimates reasonably in comparison to the measured intra-abdominal temperature values in both the activity and recovery phases but is more practical and easier to use for a real-time monitoring system of the workers' thermal states.
[Problem] Since a non-aqueous patch includes lidocaine without dissolution in a crystalline state, such non-aqueous patch has poor skin permeability, and therefore a high concentration of lidocaine is formulated. Lidocaine has been noted to have an adverse effect on the heart. Furthermore, lidocaine has side effects such as shock resulting from the use of high concentrations thereof over a long time, rubefaction, and irritation. For these reasons, external medicines containing lidocaine of more than 5 mass percent are specified as dangerous drugs. Accordingly, lidocaine cannot be used as a household (non-prescription) drug. [Solution] A non-aqueous patch comprises a solubilizer consisting of organic acid and polyalcohol, and lidocaine and/or a reactant thereof in a base. Thereby, the non-aqueous patch demonstrates muscle pain relief efficacy.
The invention relates to an active component extracted from Chinese wingnut, and an application thereof in preparing hypoglycemic medicines and foods. The invention belongs to the technical field of food and medicine. The active component is characterized in that: fresh Chinese wingnut leaves are subjected to crushing, water extraction, concentration, and drying, such that a Chinese wingnut active component solid is prepared. The Chinese wingnut active component solid can be prepared into a granule preparation with an excipient oligosaccharide, can be soaked with green tea to be prepared into a Chinese wingnut hypoglycemic tea, and can be mixed with a tomato juice in market to be prepared into a health-care tomato juice. With the application of Chinese wingnut active component in preparing hypoglycemic medicine and food, hypoglycemic effect is significant, and adverse-reactions are less. The Chinese wingnut active component has wide application prospect in medicines and foods.
Ischemic stroke produces the highest adult disability. Despite successful recanalization, no-reflow, or the futile restoration of the cerebral perfusion after ischemia, is a major cause of brain lesion expansion. However, the vascular mechanism underlying this hypoperfusion is largely unknown, and no approach is available to actively promote optimal reperfusion to treat no-reflow. Here, by combining two-photon laser scanning microscopy (2PLSM) and a mouse middle cerebral arteriolar occlusion (MCAO) model, we find myogenic vasomotion deficits correlated with post-ischemic cerebral circulation interruptions and no-reflow. Transient occlusion-induced transient loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) permanently impairs mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contacts and abolish Ca2+ oscillation in smooth muscle cells (SMCs), the driving force of myogenic spontaneous vasomotion. Furthermore, tethering mitochondria and ER by specific overexpression of ME-Linker in SMCs restores cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis, remotivates myogenic spontaneous vasomotion, achieves optimal reperfusion, and ameliorates neurological injury. Collectively, the maintaining of arteriolar myogenic vasomotion and mitochondria-ER contacts in SMCs, are of critical importance in preventing post-ischemic no-reflow.
As with other drugs that antagonize dopamine D2 receptors, iloperidone elevates prolactin levels. 

Hyperprolactinemia may suppress hypothalamic GnRH, resulting in reduced pituitary gonadotropin secretion. This, in turn, may inhibit reproductive function by impairing gonadalsteroidogenesis in both female and male patients. Galactorrhea, amenorrhea, gynecomastia, and impotence have been reported with prolactin-elevating compounds. Long-standing hyperprolactinemia when associated with hypogonadism may lead to decreased bone density in both female and male patients. 

Tissue culture experiments indicate that approximately one-third of human breast cancers are prolactin-dependent in vitro, a factor of potential importance if the prescription of these drugs is contemplated in a patient with previously detected breast cancer. Mammary gland proliferative changes and increases in serum prolactin were seen in mice and rats treated with iloperidone [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13)]. Neither clinical studies nor epidemiologic studies conducted to date have shown an association between chronic administration of this class of drugs and tumorigenesis in humans; the available evidence is considered too limited to be conclusive at this time. 

In a short-term placebo-controlled trial (4-weeks), the mean change from baseline to endpoint in plasma prolactin levels for the iloperidone tablets 24 mg/day-treated group was an increase of 2.6 ng/mL compared to a decrease of 6.3 ng/mL in the placebo-group. In this trial, elevated plasma prolactin levels were observed in 26% of adults treated with iloperidone compared to 12% in the placebo group. In the short-term trials, iloperidone was associated with modest levels of prolactin elevation compared to greater prolactin elevations observed with some other antipsychotic agents. In pooled analysis from clinical studies including longer term trials, in 3,210 adults treated with iloperidone, gynecomastia was reported in 2 male subjects (0.1%) compared to 0% in placebo-treated patients, and galactorrhea was reported in 8 female subjects (0.2%) compared to 3 female subjects (0.5%) in placebo-treated patients.
OBJECTIVE: Endovenous thermal ablation (EVTA) is a prevalent treatment option for patients with severe venous disease. However, the decision to intervene for patients with less severe disease (CEAP [clinical, etiology, anatomy, pathophysiology] C2 and C3) is less clear and becomes further complicated for patients with obesity, a pathology known to increase venous disease symptom severity. Therefore, the objective of this study was to use the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative database to evaluate outcomes after EVTA in obese patients with CEAP C2 and C3 venous insufficiency.
METHODS: Using the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative database, we retrospectively analyzed the initial procedure of all patients with a CEAP clinical class of C2 or C3 who underwent EVTA from January 2015 to December 2021. Patients were grouped by obesity, defined as a body mass index of ≥30 kg/m2. The primary outcome was the change in venous clinical severity score (VCSS) from the procedure to the patient's initial follow-up. The secondary outcomes included the change in patient-reported outcomes at follow-up via the HASTI (heaviness, achiness, swelling, throbbing, itching) score, incidence of follow-up complications, and recanalization of treated veins. The change in the VCSS and HASTI score were analyzed using Student t tests, and complications and recanalization were assessed using the Fisher exact test. Significant outcomes were confirmed by multiple variable logistic regression. The remaining significant variables were then analyzed, with obesity categorized using the World Health Organization classification system to analyze how increasing obesity levels affect outcomes.
RESULTS: There were 8146 limbs that met the inclusion criteria, of which 5183 (63.6%) were classified as nonobese and 2963 (36.4%) as obese. Obesity showed no impact on improvement in the VCSS (-3.29 vs -3.35; P = .408). Obesity was found to be associated with a larger improvement in overall symptoms, as evidence by a greater improvement in the HASTI score (-7.24 vs -6.62; P < .001). Obese limbs showed a higher incidence of superficial phlebitis (1.5% vs 0.7%; P = .001), but no difference was found in recanalization or any other complication.
CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that obese patients with CEAP clinical class C2 or C3 experience greater improvement in their perceived symptoms after EVTA with little difference in clinical improvement and complications compared with nonobese patients. Although obesity has been associated with increased severity of venous disease symptoms, obese patients are able to derive significant relief after treatment during the short term and may experience greater relief of symptoms than nonobese patients when treated at more mild disease presentations.
Exercise elicits a wide range of physiological responses in mammalian tissues that enhance a broad range of functions, particularly in improving cognitive performance. However, the field lacks a comprehensive bibliometric analysis that clarifies its knowledge structure and research hotspots. This study aims to address this gap and map the research landscape regarding the role of exercise in cognitive function enhancement. Firstly, the frequencies and co-occurrence of keywords were analysed to identify six main clusters: aging, cognitive impairment, rehabilitation, obesity, fatigue, and hippocampus. Secondly, reference timeline co-citation analysis revealed that hippocampus and aging were the major bursts with high intensity and long attention span while children had recently emerged as a topical subject. Finally, the evolution of themes from 2012 to 2022 was analysed, and found that older adults had been the leading research theme for exercise affecting cognition. Childhood obesity was an emerging theme that attracted increasing research attention in recent years while the hippocampus research theme expanded rapidly during the decade but remained a niche topic with less relevance to others. This research identified and summarised research priorities and evolutionary trends in exercise to improve cognition by constructing knowledge networks through visual analysis. It provides researchers with a comprehensive insight into the current state of the field to facilitate further research.

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common disease associated with a considerably increased risk of future events and with a high prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD). Improvement of the prognosis of this patient group is needed. Screening for CAD has become an option with recent developments in CT-angiography and MR stress testing. It is unknown if high-risk patient groups benefit from screening through non-invasive cardiac imaging. Therefore we propose to study whether a cardiac imaging algorithm, using non-invasive imaging techniques followed by evidence-based treatment will reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in cardiac asymptomatic PAD patients.

The GROUND study is designed as a prospective, multi-center, randomized clinical trial. Patients with peripheral arterial disease, but yet without a history of symptomatic cardiac disease will be asked to participate. All patients receive a proper therapeutic advice before randomization. Half of the recruited patients will enter the 'control group' and only receive CT calcium scoring. The other half of the recruited patients (index group) will undergo the non invasive cardiac imaging algorithm followed by evidence-based treatment. First patients undergo CT calcium scoring and CT angiography. Patients with a left main (or equivalent) coronary artery stenosis on CT angiography will be referred to a cardiologist without further imaging. All other patients in this group will undergo Dobutamine Stress Magnetic Resonance (DSMR) testing. Patients with a DSMR positive for ischemia will also be referred to a cardiologist. Most referred patients will very likely undergo conventional coronary artery angiography and cardiac interventions (CABG or PCI) if indicated. All participants of the trial will enter a 5 year follow up period for the occurrence of future cardiovascular events. Interim analysis will take place and based on power calculations about 1200 patients are needed to reach significance.

Implications The GROUND study will provide new insight into the question whether non-invasive cardiac imaging reduces the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with peripheral arterial disease, but yet without symptoms of coronary artery disease as an example of a high risk patient group.
OBJECTIVE: Dysmenorrhea is the pain related to menstruation; to screen for the symptoms, a working ability, location, intensity of days of pain, and dysmenorrhea (WaLIDD) score was created. The purpose of this work was to culturally adapt and assess the measurement properties of the WaLIDD score for dysmenorrhea in Brazilian women.
METHODS: In this cross-sectional online study, we evaluated women with and without dysmenorrhea. Criterion validity and construct validity were assessed, respectively, by the Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) curve and correlations with the bodily pain and social functioning domains of medical outcomes study 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36), self-report of absenteeism and Stanford Presenteeism Scale for presenteeism. Test-retest reliability and measurement errors were assessed, respectively, by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland and Altman Graph.
RESULTS: 430 women completed the test, 238 (55.4%) women had dysmenorrhea, and 199 (46.3%) answered the questionnaire twice for the retest. The cutoff points ≥4, ≥5, and ≥5 could discriminate between women with and without dysmenorrhea, absenteeism, and presenteeism related to dysmenorrhea, respectively. Correlations between SF-36 - pain and social functioning domains and WaLIDD score were weak to strong and negative. For WaLIDD total Score, ICC was 0.95 and the limits of agreement were -1.54 and 1.62.
CONCLUSION: WaLIDD score is a short, valid and reliable instrument to screen and predict dysmenorrhea and could predict absenteeism and presenteeism related to dysmenorrhea in Brazilian women.
The first-choice vascular access for starting dialysis is autogenous distal forearm arteriovenous-fistula (AVF); the increasing demand to create more fistulas may lead to their creation in borderline vessels and, in this setting, the early failure (EF) and failure of maturation (FTM) remain the main issues. The size of vessels or preexisting stenotic lesions of artery or vein are no longer considered absolute exclusion criteria for the creation of distal AVF, but huge arterial calcification still represents an indication to create upper arm AVF. A novel approach to treat arterial calcifications is represented by intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). This technique could represent a valid option to save failed to mature AVF due to extended calcified artery. We describe a case of a male patient, 43 years old with middle forearm AVF failed to mature with a completely calcified radial artery, low brachial flow (Qa) and small efferent vein. We treated the patient AVF with less invasive, percutaneous, endovascular, eco-guided IVL on the entire radial artery. After the procedure was observed a rapid increase of Qa, with reduction of calcification in the arterial wall, increase of arterial caliper and flow. This procedure could represent a valid alternative to surgical upper-arm AVF creation in patient with functioning but failed to mature fistula due to spread artery calcification, with a rapid, less invasive procedure.
Association splitting is a new cognitive technique which aims at reducing obsessive thoughts. It draws upon the so-called "fan effect" of associative priming. Transposing this principle to the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), we hypothesized that the sprouting of new and the strengthening of existing neutral associations to core OCD cognitions will reduce their fear-evoking properties by depriving the chain of OCD-related cognitions of associative strength. Patients with OCD are randomly allocated to either associations splitting (AS) or cognitive remediation (CogPack training). Blind to treatment assignment, both groups are assessed before intervention and eight weeks as well as six months later with the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS), the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory (OCI-R) and cognitive tests. OCD severity derived from the Y-BOCS and the OCI-R serves as the main outcome parameters. We also explore if AS changes the OCD-related semantic networks with cognitive tasks. It is assumed that association splitting will improve OCD severity to a greater extent than CogPack training.
Patients receive therapeutic conventional surgery (tumor resection). Patients receive cisplatin IV over 4 hours on day 1, vincristine sulfate IV on days 3, 10, and 17, and fluorouracil on day 3.
