Efferent pathways in sodium overload-induced renal vasodilation in rats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Hypernatremia stimulates the secretion of oxytocin (OT), but the physiological role of OT remains unclear. The present study sought to determine the involvement of OT and renal nerves in the renal responses to an intravenous infusion of hypertonic saline.

External cephalic version outcomes with tocolysis and sedation: A 10‐year retrospective cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 173, Issue 3, Page 1343-1351, June 2026.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of external cephalic version (ECV) performed with tocolysis and sedation or spinal anesthesia, and to identify predictors of ECV success, complications, and delivery outcomes after successful ECV. Methods This 10‐year cohort study included 990 pregnant women with term non‐cephalic presentation

Intravenous Oxytocin Has no Effect on Ad Libitum Food Intake or Postprandial Plasma Glucose Concentrations in Individuals With Obesity: A Randomised, Placebo‐Controlled, Double‐Blind, Crossover Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 4671-4682, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Oxytocin is expressed throughout the small intestine, suggesting a role for oxytocin in postprandial metabolism. Accordingly, single‐dose intranasal oxytocin reduces food intake and improves glucose tolerance. We investigated the effects of a continuous intravenous oxytocin infusion on ad libitum food intake, appetite sensations ...

Pathogenesis of Adenomyosis: An Integrated Review of Cellular Origins, Molecular Mechanisms, and Intersecting Diseases

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 7, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Adenomyosis is a prevalent disorder of the archimetra, historically conflated with endometriosis but possessing a unique pathobiological trajectory. This review synthesises current molecular evidence to propose a unified mechanistic framework initiated by tissue injury and repair (TIAR), aberrant stem cell activation, or de novo metaplasia ...

In the gravid human uterus, oxytocin induces smooth muscle cell contraction via transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 channel activation

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 7, Page 3135-3158, 1 April 2026.
Abstract figure legend In gravid human uterus smooth muscle, the oxytocin receptor (OXTR) and transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) calcium channel colocalize at <40 nm by proximity ligation. TRPV4 is necessary for oxytocin‐induced calcium influx and contractility in uterine smooth muscle cells.

Tocolytic agents and the failure to improve neonatal outcomes

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Premature delivery has long been a major problem in obstetrics. Increased perinatal morbidity and mortality as well as substantial health care costs, both short and long term, have driven the efforts to combat this complication. While multiple agents have been studied over the last 70 years leading to hundreds of publications and involving ...

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio is associated with early cervical shortening after cerclage: a single-center cohort study integrating C-reactive protein

Frontiers in Medicine
ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore whether pre-operative systemic inflammatory markers—neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and C-reactive protein (CRP)—are associated with early post-cerclage cervical shortening and to examine whether atosiban use ...
