Systemic corticosteroids for acute otitis media in children [PDF]
Background: Acute otitis media (AOM) is a common acute infection in children. Pain is its most prominent and distressing symptom. Antibiotics are commonly prescribed for AOM, although they have only a modest effect in reducing pain at two to three days.

Abstract This report describes a case of refractory ionised hypercalcaemia, of 12 months duration, in an 11‐year‐old, male, neutered beagle diagnosed with metastatic histiocytic sarcoma at postmortem examination. In this case, the parathyroid hormone levels were at the lower end of the reference interval, the parathyroid hormone‐related peptide was ...

This study used a tail‐pinching model during development to simulate mechanical pain experienced by pups in high‐social mandarin voles (Microtus mandarinus). Subsequently, brush‐like positive tactile stimuli were applied to the backs of the mandarin voles.

Neurophysiological responses to stressful motion and anti-motion sickness drugs as mediated by the limbic system [PDF]
Performance is characterized in terms of attention and memory, categorizing extrinsic mechanism mediated by ACTH, norepinephrine and dopamine, and intrinsic mechanisms as cholinergic.

Abstract The exploration of gender differences in non‐andrological fields was the core focus of a series of discussions, which took place at the Endocrinology Unit in Modena, Italy in the form of the aporetic dialogue of ancient Greece. This second episode reports the transcript of the actual debate on testosterone's role in defining empathic behavior ...

Localization of Adrenal Cortical Hormones in the Adrenal Cortex of the Cat
Recently Reichstein and his collaborators (Reichstein,1,2 Reichstein and von Euw3) have isolated 3 ketone steroid compounds— corticosterone, desoxycorticosterone, and dehydrocorticosterone, any one of which will, in pure form, maintain the life of adrenalectomized animals. They have shown that all the biological activity in an alcoholic extract of beef

Inflammation is vital for defence against injury and infection, but excessive inflammation can lead to tissue damage and disease. The central nervous system (CNS) helps regulate immune responses through neuroendocrine pathways, such as the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and the anti‐inflammatory reflex, which limit systemic inflammation.

A Direct Role for Thyroid Hormone in Development of the Adrenal Cortex
A relationship between thyroid and adrenal dysfunction has been recognized for some time. Certain human autoimmune conditions, for example, can destroy both the thyroid gland and adrenal cortex resulting in combined hormone deficiencies. Beyond autoimmune destruction, however, a relationship between thyroid and adrenocortical function is less clear ...
