Distinct single cell signal transduction signatures in leukocyte subsets stimulated with khat extract, amphetamine-like cathinone, cathine or norephedrine [PDF]
Abstract Background Amphetamine and amphetamine derivatives are suggested to induce an immunosuppressive effect. However, knowledge of how amphetamines modulate intracellular signaling pathways in cells of the immune system is limited. We have studied phosphorylation of signal transduction proteins (Akt, CREB, ERK1/2,

Analytical Challenges in Detecting New Psychoactive Substances in Anti-Doping: A Proof-of-Concept Involving Pentedrone Metabolite. [PDF]
The paper describes an investigation related to the pentedrone norephedrine metabolite. The athlete's sample was analyzed using ultra‐performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS). According to the literature, this metabolite may originate from pentedrone, α‐pyrrolidinopentiophenone (PVP), or N‐ethylpentedrone (NEP).

Effect of Self-Care Activities on Blood Pressure Control Among Patients With Hypertension. [PDF]
Background: Adherence to self‐care activities is crucial for effective control of hypertension. However, little is known about the effect of self‐care activities on blood pressure control in Ethiopia. Hence, the present study is aimed at investigating the effect of self‐care activities on blood pressure control among patients with hypertension. Methods:
