Kidney cell DNA damage caused by combined exposure to volatile anaesthetics and 1 Gy or 2 Gy radiotherapy dose in vivo

Arhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju, 2022
Patient immobilisation with volatile anaesthetics (VA) during radiotherapy is sometimes unavoidable. Although it is known that both VAs and ionising radiation can have nephrotoxic effects, there are no studies of their combined effects on DNA damage. The

The Management of Parkinson's Disease Before, during and after Pregnancy—an MDS Scientific Issues Committee Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pregnancy after a Parkinson's diagnosis presents complex challenges. Due to the paucity of literature, there is no evidence‐based guidelines and protocols for preconception care, management of pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period in women with early‐onset Parkinson's disease (PD).

Halothane Increases Myocardial Sensitivity to Epinephrine-Induced Arrhythmias in Cirrhotic Rats

Archives of Anesthesia and Critical Care, 2016
Background: Cirrhotic patients are at a greater risk of different kinds of arrhythmias. Despite the well-known arrhythmogenic effects of halothane, developing countries continue to use halothane due to its low cost. This study was designed to investigate

Land use gradients drive spatial variation in Lassa fever host communities in the Eastern Province of Sierra Leone

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
As West Africa urbanises, the risk of Lassa fever may paradoxically decrease. We found the invasive house mouse, a dominant urban species, outcompetes and displaces the primary Lassa virus host. Considering these species interactions is critical for accurately predicting future zoonotic disease patterns.

Does Rodent Management Impact the Distribution of Rattus rattus and Mastomys natalensis in Village Settings?

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Ecological differences between species may result in differential impacts of control measures. Our experimental study showed that intensive removal of rodents from houses (mostly Rattus rattus) resulted in increased use of houses by Mastomys natalensis, a species usually found outdoors. Our results suggest that M.
