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

Respirology, EarlyView.
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.

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

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
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).

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 ...
