Norepinephrine Involvement in Penile Detumescence
Adrenergic neurotransmission was studied in dogs. Blood samples for catecholamine assay were collected from the flaccid penis, the erect penis after cavernous nerve stimulation and during detumescence induced by sympathetic trunk stimulation. Epinephrine concentration was not significantly different in these three stages.

Cyclic Alternating Pattern Dynamics in Individuals at Risk for Developing Parkinson's Disease
Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the differences in cyclic alternating patterns (CAP) metrics, a non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep physiological rhythm, among recently diagnosed patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), and individuals at high and low risk for developing PD based on genetic and prodromal risk.

Multi-level selection in biology [PDF]
Okasha (2006) proposed distinguishing aspects of selection: those based in particle level traits (MSL1), and those based in group level traits (MSL2). It is proposed here that MSL1 can usefully be further split into two aspects, one (MLS1E) representing selection of particles based in their individual interaction with environmental properties, and one (

Dopamine Transporter Imaging as Objective Monitoring Biomarker in Parkinson's Disease
Objective Although dopamine transporter (DaT) imaging is a valuable diagnostic biomarker, few studies have investigated its utility in objectively monitoring disease progression in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). To date, no study has established a longitudinal relationship between the DaT signal decline and the motor symptom increase ...

Contemporary management of pain in cirrhosis: Toward precision therapy for pain
Abstract Chronic pain is highly prevalent in patients with cirrhosis and is associated with poor health‐related quality of life and poor functional status. However, there is limited guidance on appropriate pain management in this population, and pharmacologic treatment can be harmful, leading to adverse outcomes, such as gastrointestinal bleeding ...

Tumor-induced neoneurogenesis and perineural tumor growth: a mathematical approach [PDF]
Primary tumors infrequently lead to demise of cancer patients; instead, mortality and a significant degree of morbidity result from the growth of secondary tumors in distant organs (metastasis). It is well-known that malignant tumors induce the formation of a lymphatic and a blood vascular network around themselves.

This study compared the clinical effectiveness and treatment satisfaction of Pregabalin and Gabapentin triple therapy for neuropathic pain in a real‐world setting. The primary outcome measured the reduction in mean Self‐Administered Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs pain score value from baseline to 12 weeks posttreatment.

Predicting Individual Responses to Vasoactive Medications in Children with Septic Shock [PDF]
Objective: Predict individual septic children's personalized physiologic responses to vasoactive titrations by training a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) using EMR data. Materials and Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed EMR of patients admitted to a pediatric ICU from 2009 to 2017.

Immunohistochemical staining for tyrosine hydroxylase reveals the neurons forming the locus coeruleus complex in the pontine region of the brain of the Congo gray parrot. The appearance and parcellation of the locus coeruleus complex in birds shows many similarities, but also differences to that observed in mammals.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) can modulate the memory enhancement process during stressful events, and this modulation requires arousal-induced norepinephrine (NE) activation in the basolateral amygdale (BLA).
