A high-throughput approach for identification of novel general anesthetics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Anesthetic development has been a largely empirical process. Recently, we described a GABAergic mimetic model system for anesthetic binding, based on apoferritin and an environment-sensitive fluorescent probe.

Combined Systemic Immunotherapy and Intrathecal Dexamethasone in Febrile Infection Related Epilepsy Syndrome

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Febrile infection related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) is a rare presentation of refractory status epilepticus with immune dysregulation as a potential pathologic mechanism. Despite promising results from second‐line immunomodulators, approximately 30% remain refractory to treatment.

The free energy of biomembrane and nerve excitation and the role of anesthetics

open access: yes, 2018
In the electromechanical theory of nerve stimulation, the nerve impulse consists of a traveling region of solid membrane in a liquid environment. Therefore, the free energy necessary to stimulate a pulse is directly related to the free energy difference ...

Shaker-Related Potassium Channels in the Central Medial Nucleus of the Thalamus Are Important Molecular Targets for Arousal Suppression by Volatile General Anesthetics

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2013
The molecular targets and neural circuits that underlie general anesthesia are not fully elucidated. Here, we directly demonstrate that Kv1-family (Shaker-related) delayed rectifier K+ channels in the central medial thalamic nucleus (CMT) are important ...

National Institute of Health and Care Excellence Clinical Criteria for the Diagnosis of Knee Osteoarthritis: A Prospective Diagnostic Accuracy Study in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) criteria for osteoarthritis (OA) obviate the need for physical examination or imaging, and their use may improve timely diagnosis of OA. However, they have not been validated. Methods Within a larger study of individuals with type 2 diabetes, participants with and without self ...

Intravenous anesthetics have differential effects on human potassium channels

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica
General anesthetics are widely used in the clinic and greatly promote the development of surgery. However, the incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory complications caused by general anesthetics is still high, and the underlying mechanisms remain ...

Pharmacokinetics, Efficacy, and Safety of Upadacitinib in Pediatric Patients With Polyarticular‐Course Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: An Interim Analysis of an Open‐Label, Phase 1 Trial

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This work aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety of upadacitinib, an oral selective JAK inhibitor, in pediatric patients with polyarticular‐course juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pcJIA). Methods In an open‐label, phase 1 study (SELECT‐YOUTH), enrolled patients, aged 2 to <18 years with pcJIA, received body weight–based ...

Incidence of and Risk of Mortality After Hip Fractures in Rheumatoid Arthritis Relative to the General Population

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoporosis, a known complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), increases the risk of hip fracture, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Fracture risk estimates in patients with RA treated with contemporary treatment strategies are lacking.

Research progress on mitochondrial mechanisms of sensitivity to inhalational anesthetics

open access: yesZhongguo linchuang yanjiu
Experimental animals and people have different sensitivity to inhalational anesthetics, which is related to the depth of anesthesia during general anesthesia and the perioperative safety of patients.
