Ventrolateral Periaqueductal Gray Neurons Are Active During Urination [PDF]
The ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (VLPAG) is thought to be the main PAG column for bladder control. PAG neurons (especially VLPAG neurons) and neurons in the pontine micturition center (PMC) innervating the bladder detrusor have anatomical and ...

SST neurons in the periaqueductal gray regulate urination and bladder function [PDF]
Urination, a fundamental physiological process, is intricately regulated by central neural circuits. The periaqueductal gray (PAG) is a critical hub for urination control, yet the specific neuronal subtypes involved remain undefined.

Adulteration of Urine by “Urine Luck” [PDF]
Abstract Background: In vitro adulterants are used to invalidate assays for urine drugs of abuse. The present study examined the effect of pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) found in the product “Urine Luck”. Methods: PCC was prepared and added to positive urine controls at concentrations of 0, 10, 50, and 100 g/L.

Methotrexate in the urine [PDF]
A 62-year-old man with a recent diagnosis of primary central nervous system lymphoma developed acute kidney injury (AKI) after administration of high-dose methotrexate. AKI developed within 48 h of therapy despite prior infusion of intravenous bicarbonate solution. Serum methotrexate level was 2.61 μmol/l at 24 h and 0.25 μmol/l 72 h after methotrexate
