Sympatho‐Excitation in Pulmonary Hypertension: The Potential Role of Pulmonary Arterial Baroreceptors: An Acute Physiologic Intervention Study

Respirology, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 621-629, June 2026.
Pulmonary arterial baroreceptors reflexively stimulate sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in response to elevated pulmonary artery pressure and distension. In pulmonary hypertension patients, changes in muscle SNA were proportional to changes in pulmonary haemodynamics following nebulised iloprost.

European Interdisciplinary Guidelines on Pain Management in Acute Pancreatitis: UEG, EPC, EDS, ESDO, EAGEN, ESPGHAN, ESGAR, and ESPCG Evidence‐Based Recommendations

United European Gastroenterology Journal, Volume 14, Issue 5, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pain is often the presenting symptom of acute pancreatitis (AP) and has a prognostic significance, with poorly treated pain affecting patient outcomes. Despite this, there are currently no international recommendations for pain management in patients admitted with AP.

Phenol Neurolysis in Pain and Palliative Medicine

Pain Practice, Volume 26, Issue 5, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pain is a common symptom in palliative care and affects patients' quality of life considerably. Standard analgesics are sometimes insufficient and are associated with substantial side effects. Neurolysis, the targeted destruction of nerves using thermal or chemical agents, offers an additional option for managing localized pain in ...

Enteric Nervous System Damage by Food Contaminants: A Pathway to Neurodegeneration?

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS), a key component of the gut–brain axis, has emerged as a critical player in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is the first neural system exposed to food contaminants (FCs)—a diverse group of ubiquitous toxic compounds fortuitously present in food derived from production, processing, storage, or ...

Hemodynamic Consequences and Clinical Outcomes With Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 962-968, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Intravenous lidocaine is frequently used for refractory ventricular arrhythmia (VA). Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common comorbidity in VA patients. Lidocaine poses theoretical risks of hemodynamic compromise and pro‐arrhythmia, including AF with rapid ventricular rates (RVR).

The Brain‐Gut Axis in Parkinson's Disease Pathology

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Exposure to environmental toxins induces gut dysbiosis, increases intestinal epithelial barrier permeability, immune activation, and oxidative stress, promoting α‐syn misfolding and propagation. Brainstem DMV neurons exhibit α‐syn pathology, dysregulating neuronal excitability and vagal control of GI functions.

Contemporary and Emerging Therapies in the Management of Refractory Angina: A Clinical Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 869-884, March 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Refractory angina (RA) represents a growing challenge in clinical cardiology, particularly in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy and who are not candidates for revascularization.

A Pilot Study of Perioperative External Circumferential Cryoablation of Human Renal Arteries for Sympathetic Denervation

Vascular Specialist International, 2020
Purpose: Cryoablation, which induces cellular death without extensive tissue damage, has been extensively used to denervate the myocardium. However, periadventitial external circumferential application of cryotherapy to denervate the renal artery ...
