Prophylactic Dexmedetomidine Reduces Junctional Ectopic Tachycardia and Facilitates Postoperative Recovery in Pediatric Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Prospective Trials

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, Volume 36, Issue 7, Page 767-777, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of prophylactic dexmedetomidine in preventing Junctional Ectopic Tachycardia (JET) and its impact on postoperative recovery in pediatric congenital heart surgery, restricting analysis to prospective trials. Methods We systematically searched PubMed, Scopus, and CENTRAL through October 16, 2025, for

Oxidative stress and impaired cardiovagal baroreflex sensitivity in young adults with post‐traumatic stress disorder

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 7, Page 3216-3227, 1 July 2026.
Abstract Post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with elevated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, yet the underlying physiological characterization in young adults remain unclear. This study examines whether autonomic and/or vascular dysfunction predominates as an early precursor to CVD development in young adults with PTSD and explores the

From Molecules to Machines: An Integrative Framework Linking Molecular Pathogenesis, Multi‐Factorial Risk, Risk Stratification, Clinical Management, and Artificial Intelligence in QT Prolongation and Sudden Cardiac Death

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 6, June 2026.
An integrative conceptual framework linking the five principal domains addressed in this review. Beginning at the molecular level, loss‐of‐function mutations in KCNQ1 and KCNH2 reduce outward repolarizing currents (IKs and IKr), while gain‐of‐function SCN5A mutations augment late inward sodium current (INa), establishing the genetic substrate for ...

Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 237-251, June 2026.
Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.

Cardiopulmonary arrest following extradural analgesia and suspected secondary sympathetic blockade in a critically ill dog

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract An 8‐year‐old, male, entire Cocker Spaniel presented to the Queen Mother Hospital for Animals for treatment of an iatrogenic septic uroabdomen secondary to traumatic urinary catheterisation. After initial stabilisation, it underwent diagnostic imaging and definitive surgical correction comprising a cystotomy and bladder reconstruction.

Interventions to prevent postoperative neurocognitive complications: an umbrella review of meta‐analyses of randomised controlled trials

open access: yesAnaesthesia, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 532-540, April 2026.
Summary Introduction The certainty of the effectiveness of interventions to manage postoperative neurocognitive complications remains unclear. The objective of this umbrella review was to synthesise and evaluate the evidence for interventions aimed at reducing the incidence of peri‐operative neurocognitive complications.

Alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists as analgesic drugs in equine medicine

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 220-228, April 2026.
Summary Managing pain in horses is challenging despite the availability of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs, local anaesthetics, opioids and α2‐adrenoreceptor agonists. While α2‐agonists are widely used for sedation and restraint, their analgesic properties remain underutilised.

Noradrenergic regulation of skeletal muscle oxygen pressures: Impact of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and heat therapy

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 1875-1890, 1 April 2026.
Abstract Attenuation of sympathetic vasoconstriction during exercise (functional sympatholysis) contributes to skeletal muscle oxygen delivery–utilization matching. However, the extent to which muscle contractions impact noradrenergic regulation of interstitial oxygen pressures (PO2is${P_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}_{{\mathrm{is}}}$; the driving force for blood–
