Microglial ERK-NRBP1-CREB-BDNF signaling in sustained antidepressant actions of (R)-ketamine
(R,S)-ketamine elicits rapid-acting and sustained antidepressant actions in treatment-resistant patients with depression. (R)-ketamine produces longer-lasting antidepressant effects than (S)-ketamine in rodents; however, the precise molecular mechanisms ...

A dose-effect network meta-analysis model: an application in antidepressants [PDF]
Network meta-analysis (NMA) has been used to answer a range of clinical questions about the preferable intervention for a given condition. Although the effectiveness and safety of pharmacological agents depend on the dose administered, NMA applications typically ignore the role that drugs dosage play on the results.

Hydrothermal liquefaction of sewage sludge; energy considerations and fate of micropollutants during pilot scale processing [PDF]
The beneficial use of sewage sludge for valorization of carbon and nutrients is of increasing interest while micropollutants in sludge are of concern to the environment and human health. This study investigates the hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of sewage sludge in a continuous flow pilot scale reactor at conditions expected to reflect future ...
