Calcitonin Gene‐Related Peptide (CGRP)‐Expressing Neurons in the External Lateral Parabrachial Area Regulate Pain‐Induced Sleep Disturbances

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lynch et al., identified novel targets on the wake‐promoting pathways that can effectively treat pain‐induced sleep disturbances. The authors demonstrated that Calcitonin gene‐related peptide‐expressing neurons (CGRP) in the external lateral parabrachial nucleus (PBelCGRP) serve as the primary relay node for pain stimuli that cause sleep disruption ...

Patient anxiety and conscious surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The amount of surgery undertaken on the conscious patient is increasing. However, many patients are anxious and resistant to such surgery. Patients (n=214) were surveyed to determine their related apprehensions.

Type I Interferon Signaling Augments Autoimmunity in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The cGAS‐STING innate immune pathway is excessively activated both in peripheral monocytes and CNS microglia in patients with NMOSD, leading to an overproduction of IFN‐I. IFN‐I subsequently acts on AQP4‐specific autoreactive T cells. Blocking this pathway may offer novel therapeutic options for individuals with NMOSD.

Sleep Deprivation Aggravates Periodontitis Through Trigeminal‐Periodontal Neuroimmune Pathway Mediated by the AChE‐ACh‐α7nAChR Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep deprivation (SD) exacerbates ligature‐induced periodontitis (LIP) through the trigeminal nerve‐periodontal neuroimmune pathway mediated by the acetylcholinesterase (AChE)‐acetylcholine (ACh)‐α7 nicotinic receptor (α7nAChR) axis. While electroacupuncture (EA) alleviates the condition of LIP combined with SD by activating the α7nAChR.

Efficacy of different size Quincke spinal needles in reduction of incidence of Post-Dural Puncture Headache (PDPH) in Caesarean Section (CS). Randomized controlled study

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2017
Background: Regional analgesia first introduced in clinical practice by the German surgeon Karl August Bier (1898). Spinal, epidural or combined spinal and epidural anaesthesia became the first line of choice in obstetric surgery.

Osteoblast‐CD4+ CTL Crosstalk Mediated by SIRT1/DAAM2 Axis Prevents Age‐Related Bone Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the osteoblastic niche, SIRT1 activates and recruits CD4+ CTLs by increasing DAAM2 expression via EZH2 deacetylation and boosting the secretion of key chemokines, such as CCL3, CCL5, and CXCL10. Then, CD4+ CTL directly eliminates senescent osteoblasts in an MHC‐II‐dependent way, thereby slowing down the process of bone ageing and effectively ...

Similar Effects of General and Spinal Anaesthesia on Perioperative Stress Response in Patients Undergoing Haemorrhoidectomy

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2006
Surgery induces release of neuroendocrine hormones (cortisol), cytokines (interleukin-6: IL-6, tumour necrosis factor-α: TNF-α), acute phase proteins (C-reactive protein: CRP, leptin).
