Factors associated with strong opioid use for noncancer pain in patients with chronic intestinal failure

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 129-137, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Chronic analgesic use is described in home parenteral nutrition (HPN)–dependent patients, but there are limited data on factors associated with opioid use for noncancerous pain. Methods Patients attending a national UK intestinal failure reference center were divided in two groups according to strong opioid (SO) usage; risk factors ...

Kernel Phase and Coronagraphy with Automatic Differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The accumulation of aberrations along the optical path in a telescope produces distortions and speckles in the resulting images, limiting the performance of cameras at high angular resolution. It is important to achieve the highest possible sensitivity to faint sources such as planets, using both hardware and data analysis software.

Acute and chronic effects of morphine on Low-Mg2+ ACSF-induced epileptiform activity during infancy in mice hippocampal slices

open access: yesResearch in Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2019
Interaction of morphine and seizure is complex. Mouse brain hippocampal slices were used to estimate how acute and chronic morphine treatment alters the low-magnesium artificial cerebrospinal fluid (LM-ACSF)-induced seizure activity.
