The Sedative Effect of Propranolol on Critically Ill Patients: A Case Series
Frontiers in Medicine, 2017 IntroductionRecent studies have examined the effectiveness of alpha-2 adrenergic agonists for controlling delirium and agitation. Propranolol, a non-selective beta-adrenergic antagonist with good penetration of the blood–brain barrier, has not been ...

PGC‐1α Activation by Polyphenols: A Pathway to Thermogenesis
Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.Polyphenols, derived from dietary sources such as berries, undergo digestion and interact with gut microbiota, leading to their metabolization in the liver. This process influences bile acid composition, which in turn activates PGC1α, a key regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis and thermogenesis.

β3‐Adrenoceptor Agonist Effects on the Urinary Bladder Beyond Detrusor Relaxation
Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aims β3‐Adrenoceptor agonists such as mirabegron or vibegron reach pharmacokinetic steady‐state within a few days. However, maximum improvements in symptoms of the overactive bladder syndrome are reached at time points later than 4 weeks, that is, detrusor smooth muscle relaxation cannot fully explain clinical effects.

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.Abstract A 3‐year‐old, male, entire, German wirehaired pointer dog was presented with a 2‐year history of paroxysmal episodes of collapse associated with reduced levels of consciousness. A magnetic resonance imaging study identified a single, ill‐defined, non‐contrast‐enhancing, intra‐axial mass lesion involving the hypothalamus.

Effect of anticholinergic eye drops on intraorbital, periorbital and brain pulsation power
Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose The study aims to investigate the effect of pharmacologically reducing parasympathetic activity on ocular and cerebral pulsations, inspired by recent discoveries of a glymphatic‐like system in the eye driven by physiological pulsations.
