Policing the safety net: Medical and carceral management of violence in a Los Angeles County public hospital

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Medical anthropologists have long shown how hospitals function as spaces of both care and control, yet the entanglement of policing and trauma care remains understudied. This paper offers an ethnographic account of how trauma surgeons in a Los Angeles County hospital navigate the embedded presence of police within their clinical work.

Antipsychotics‐Induced Hyposalivation Mediated by Impaired Salivary Ca2+ Signaling

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Antipsychotic‐induced salivary dysfunction such as hyposalivation is a prevalent clinical challenge that severely compromises oral health and quality of life. Although typical and atypical antipsychotics have their therapeutic target in the central nervous system, their direct molecular mechanisms within the salivary glands remain ...

Distinct electrophysiology and dopaminergic modulation of medium spiny neurons across divisions of the tail striatum and the dorsolateral striatum

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The striatum is a brain region within the basal ganglia that plays a crucial role in generating behaviour and mediating perception. The tail striatum (TS) is a poorly understood striatal domain with predominantly sensory functions. Recent evidence supports that abnormal TS dopamine transmission in dopaminergic disease contributes to sensory ...

Beat‐to‐beat variability of ventricular repolarization reveals sex‐specific instability and proarrhythmic risk

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A mechanistic framework linking sex‐dependent dynamical instability to proarrhythmic risk. Sex‐specific human ventricular models show that upstream modulators, including biological sex, hormones, drugs and heart disease, promote steeper APD restitution in female than male and enhance dynamical instability.

Chronic haloperidol exposure impairs neurodevelopment via Notch1 signaling in human stem cell-derived brain organoids

Scientific Reports
Haloperidol is a typical antipsychotic used to treat schizophrenia and induces dopamine D2 receptor antagonism. Long-term use of haloperidol can reduce brain size in animals and humans; however, the underlying mechanism of this effect remains unclear ...

Comparison of efficacy of haloperidol and olanzapine in the treatment of delirium

Indian Journal of Psychiatry, 2017
Objective: Till date, typical antipsychotic haloperidol is the treatment of choice for delirium. But, due to higher side effects with haloperidol, newer atypical antipsychotics (e.g., olanzapine) are increasingly being used in the treatment of delirious ...
