Positron Emission Tomography Imaging in Clinical Trials for Parkinson's Disease: Applications of Metabolic Brain Network Approach

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroimaging with positron emission tomography (PET) has been instrumental in elucidating neurobiological mechanisms behind therapeutical trials in Parkinson's disease (PD). A variety of medical and neurosurgical interventions have been evaluated using many radioligands that reveal molecular basis for target engagement and brain responses in ...

Pituitary apoplexy is associated with concurrent or subsequent diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare condition caused by hemorrhage or infarction of the pituitary gland with associated risk of cranial neuropathies, endocrinopathies, and even death. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been shown to have some association with pituitary apoplexy, however, large‐scale studies have not been performed.

Use of 5% Topical Minoxidil Application for Telogen Effluvium: An Open‐Label Single‐Arm Clinical Trial

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Telogen effluvium (TE) is an acute and diffuse hair loss due to an abnormal increase in telogen hair follicles in response to external or internal factors. Recently, TE attracts global interest as a major cause of hair loss as a sequela of COVID‐19.

Rat models of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders for studying the critical role of cerebellar damage: A scoping review

Alcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, EarlyView.
In rat models used to study the effects of early alcohol exposure on cerebellum function and structure during pregnancy and lactation, the following conclusions can be drawn: (1) Exposure to ethanol during the first and second‐trimester equivalent in humans affects biochemical pathways in the cerebellum, but produces fewer structural changes.
