Pharmacological Influences on the R2 Blink Reflex Response in Healthy Participants: A Systematic Review

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
Pharmacological modulation of the R2 blink reflex was comparable whether responses were elicited using standard patch or concentric electrodes. Across nine studies, noradrenergic and GABAergic interventions produced the most consistent effects, supporting the R2 blink reflex as a sensitive biomarker of trigeminofacial nociceptive processing.

Transcriptomic changes in the jerboa supraoptic nucleus during osmotic stress: PCSK1 and PTPRN changes are conserved across desert and mesic species

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The supraoptic nucleus (SON) is a hypothalamic region essential for the orchestration of osmoregulation in mammals. We sought to understand how gene expression in the SON is orchestrated in a rodent species adapted for survival in arid desert conditions.

Dose measurement of optic chiasm and parotid organs using OCTAVIUS 4D phantom: a dynamic IMRT method for nasopharyngeal cancer treatment

Informatics in Medicine Unlocked
Introduction: In intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) techniques, although the dose conformity increases, the out-of-field doses would not decrease.

Can acromegaly be controlled in all cases?

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Acromegaly is a rare disease, due in most of the cases to a growth hormone (GH)‐secreting pituitary adenoma (PA), namely neuroendocrine tumour (PitNET). The treatment of patients with acromegaly is multimodal and multi‐step, including surgery, medical therapies, and radiotherapy.

Selumetinib as a Target Therapy in Progressive Paediatric Low‐Grade Gliomas—Case Series (pLGG)

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1499-1508, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Optic pathway gliomas (OPGs) occur in 15%–20% of children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). While smaller gliomas may be only monitored, the current standard of care for symptomatic ones relies on chemotherapy, most commonly carboplatin and vincristine.

How to test for a relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD)

Community Eye Health Journal, 2012
The 'swinging light test' is used to detect a relative afferent pupil defect (RAPD): a means of detecting differences between the two eyes in how they respond to a light shone in one eye at a time.
