Pharmacological MRI: Utility in Understanding Drug Mechanisms in Psychiatric Disorders

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pharmacological MRI (pharmaMRI) has emerged as a powerful tool to study how psychoactive drugs affect brain function and to uncover mechanisms of drug action in psychiatric disorders. This review provides an overview of key techniques used in pharmaMRI, including BOLD‐fMRI, arterial spin labeling (ASL), and cerebral blood volume (CBV) mapping,

Effect of smoking over one pack daily on implant healing and health: A cohort study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This prospective cohort trial examines the effects of heavy smoking on peri‐implant marginal bone loss (MBL) and implant survival rates over 15 months. Methods Thirty subjects, categorized as either smokers (more than 20 cigarettes daily for over 5 years) or non‐smokers, were initially recruited with pocket depths ≤ 5 mm and at ...

Stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 regulates expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and osteopontin after tooth extraction

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The present study aimed to investigate the expression of stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1) after tooth extraction in rats and its regulatory effect on the expression of osteopontin (OPN) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Oxymatrine Inhibits Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition to Alleviate Airway Remodeling in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by Suppressing the TGF‐β1/Smad Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored the therapeutic efficacy of oxymatrine (OMT, C15H24N2O2) in a murine model of cigarette smoke (CS)‐induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and elucidated its underlying mechanisms. A COPD model was established in mice through prolonged exposure to CS, followed by intraperitoneal administration of OMT (50 mg/kg)

Safe Sound: Highlighting Electronic Dance Music Attendees' Unique Hearing Protection Practices

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Electronic dance music attendees (EDMAs) stand out as a group more likely to use hearing protection (HP) compared to non‐EDM attendees (non‐EDMAs), making them an interesting focus for understanding the adoption of healthier auditory habits. This study delved into the factors driving HP use among EDMAs, uncovering key influences such as personal ...
