5-HT3 receptor antagonists are extensively used as efficacious agents in counteracting chemotherapy-induced emesis. Recent investigations have shed light on other potential effects (analgesic, anxiolytic, and anti-psychotic). Some studies have reported neuroprotective properties for the 5-HT3
The Cannabis sativa plant has been exploited for medicinal, agricultural and spiritual purposes in diverse cultures over thousands of years. Cannabis has been used recreationally for its psychotropic properties, while effects such as stimulation of appetite, analgesia and anti-emesis have lead to
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) is a constitutively active multifunctional serine-threonine kinase which is involved in diverse physiological processes. GSK-3 has been implicated in a wide range of diseases including neurodegeneration, inflammation, diabetes and cancer. GSK-3 is a downstream
Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a rare, neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the presence of eosinophilic hyaline intranuclear inclusions, which are ubiquitin-positive and p62-positive, in neuronal and somatic cells; this can be observed on skin biopsy. Although patients
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phytocannabinoid with therapeutic properties for numerous disorders exerted through molecular mechanisms that are yet to be completely identified. CBD acts in some experimental models as an anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, anti-oxidant, anti-emetic, anxiolytic and
The detection of neurodegenerative and neurometabolic diseases in children relies on a high index of suspicion as most will present as common paediatric problems such as recurrent vomiting, feeding problem, failure to thrive, sepsis, or developmental delay. Alternatively, children may present with
At the Orthopaedic University Clinic, Homburg, a total of 127 patients was treated with d-2-(6'-methoxy-2'-naphthyl)-propionic acid (naproxen) from June 1973 up to June 1974. The indications were chronic degenerative changes of the joints, muscles and tendons. In the first series naproxen was
Previously, we designed, synthesized and evaluated a series of quinolone-benzofuran derivatives as multitargeted anti-Alzheimer's disease (anti-AD) compounds, and we discovered that WBQ5187 possesses superior anti-AD bioactivity. In this work, we investigated the pharmacokinetics of this new
Cough and swallow are highly coordinated reflex behaviors whose common purpose is to protect the airway. The pharynx is the common tube for air and food/liquid movement from the mouth into the thorax, has been largely overlooked, and is potentially seen as just a passive space. The thyropharyngeus

The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders, characterized by a progressive spasticity of the lower limbs. So far, 33 different loci (SPGs) have been mapped and the 15 genes responsible have been identified. We mapped a locus
Acephate is a commercial organophosphate pesticide formerly used in households and now used primarily for agriculture. Poisoning symptoms include salivation, lacrimation, urination, defecation, gastrointestinal illness, and emesis. In addition to these classic symptoms, neurodegeneration can result
The present report describes the sudden death of a 3-year-old female child who had been clinically diagnosed with Leigh syndrome.Leigh syndrome is a heterogeneous progressive neurodegenerative disorder, which is characterized by focal or bilateral lesions in the thalamus, basal ganglia, brainstem,
A prospective controlled study with repeated measures before and after surgery examined the medical, surgical, and health outcomes of gastrostomy for children with disabilities at a tertiary paediatric referral centre in the North Thames area, UK. Anthropometric measures included weight,
Tokgöz Y, Erdem AO, Özbey BC, Terlemez S. A rare reason in a child with feeding intolerance: Intravaginal struvite stone. Turk J Pediatr 2018; 60: 86-88. Vaginal stones are rarely seen in childhood; they are categorized as primary and secondary whether they are a foreign object focus (nidus) or not.
The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are inherited lysosomal storage diseases characterized by progressive neuropathy and the accumulation of autofluorescent cytoplasmic granules. Clinical signs of a new canine NCL began in a 9-month-old male Dachshund with vomiting, mental dullness, and loss
