Short-course metronidazole-induced reversible acute neurotoxicity in a renal transplant recipient
Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2018 Neurotoxic manifestations due to chronic metronidazole intake are well known, but neurotoxicity due to short-term use of metronidazole is very rare. We present a case of acute neurotoxicity due to short course of injectable metronidazole given in usual ...

Bistable equilibrium points of mercury body burden [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 In the last century mercury levels in the global environment have tripled as a result of increased pollution from industrial, occupational, medicinal and domestic uses \cite{BaMe03}. Glutathione is known to be the main agent responsible for the excretion of mercury (we refer to \cite{Thim05}, \cite{ZalBar99} and \cite{Lyn02}).

Effect of miR-132 on bupivacaine-induced neurotoxicity in human neuroblastoma cell line
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2019 Background: Local anesthetics (LAs) may generate neurotoxicity in neurons. In the current study, we explored the mechanisms by which microRNA-132 (miR-132) regulated the neurotoxicity of human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) induced by bupivacaine (BUP ...

A pharmacokinetic model of lead absorption and calcium competitive dynamics [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Lead is a naturally-occurring element. It has been known to man for a long time, and it is one of the longest established poisons. The current consensus is that no level of lead exposure should be deemed "safe." New evidence regarding the blood levels at which morbidities occur has prompted the CDC to reduce the screening guideline of 10 $\mu$g/dl to 2

A discontinuous Galerkin method for the three-dimensional heterodimer model with application to prion-like proteins' dynamics [PDF]
arXivNeurocognitive disorders, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, have a wide social impact. These proteinopathies involve misfolded proteins accumulating into neurotoxic aggregates. Mathematical and computational models describing the prion-like dynamics offer an analytical basis to study the diseases' evolution and a computational framework for ...

Addressing an extreme positivity violation to distinguish the causal effects of surgery and anesthesia via separable effects [PDF]
arXivThe U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cautioned that prenatal exposure to anesthetic drugs during the third trimester may have neurotoxic effects; however, there is limited clinical evidence available to substantiate this recommendation. One major scientific question of interest is whether such neurotoxic effects might be due to surgery, anesthesia,
