  • ||||||||||  olanzapine / Generic mfg.
    Journal:  The effect of differences in trial design on estimates of efficacy of olanzapine in randomized studies. (Pubmed Central) -  May 5, 2024   
    Trials with OLZ used as investigational drug differ from those of trials with OLZ as comparator for baseline PANSS scores and study duration; these differences may produce differences in estimates of efficacy. As a consequence, the severity of illness at enrollment and trial duration should be carefully considered to ensure the reliability of indirect comparisons among antipsychotics.

    Review, Journal:  Treatment of nausea in hospitalized patients with acute illness. (Pubmed Central) -  May 5, 2024   
    Intravenous fluid and treatment directed against underlying pathology is recommended as a first-line treatment against nausea in these patients. If an antiemetic is clinically warranted, ondansetron has the most favourable ratio between side effects and price, as argued in this review.

  • ||||||||||  SSRI Induced Graves' Disease Reactivation (ENDOExpo PosterArea - BCEC) -  May 5, 2024 - Abstract #ENDO2024ENDO_2874;    
    The patient had been on Escitalopram for depression for years, which was changed to Sertraline and then Paroxetine three months prior to presentation...Her Burch-Wartofsky score was 10, suggesting against thyroid storm.The methimazole dose was increased to 20 mg TID for 3 days with a subsequent taper to 10 mg...There has been only one case of clinically significant hyperthyroidism induced by fluoxetine...It is not uncommon for patients to be treated for thyroid dysfunction and mood disorders at the same time. Monitoring the side effects of mood-regulating medications on thyroid function should be routine practice.

    An unusual movement disorder, case of diabetic striatopathy! (ENDOExpo PosterArea - BCEC) -  May 5, 2024 - Abstract #ENDO2024ENDO_2604;    
    This case describes rare case of simultaneous NKH-CB with history of CVA and antipsychotic medication use in a patient with poorly controlled DM which resolved with treatment of hyperglycemia. Thus offers valuable insights into the diagnostic challenges associated with this condition as well as potential links to other neurological complications.

    In the USA, 67 percent of hospitalizations are linked to four medications or classes: warfarin, insulins, oral antiplatelet agents, and oral hypoglycemic agents...Patient has been taking Lantus, Glipizide (sulfonylurea), and Empagliflozin, Bupropion and Aripiprazole at home...This case report will enforce the importance of ensuring appropriate drug prescribing involves factors such as avoiding inappropriate medications, monitoring for side effects and drug levels, preventing drug interactions, and incorporating patient values through active involvement. This case is an unique opportunity to learn ADEs, contributing to diagnostic challenges which can increase mortality across various age groups without proper vigilance.

    Disruption of Transient Receptor Potential Channel 5 Causes Obesity and Maladaptive Behavior (251 - BCEC) -  May 5, 2024 - Abstract #ENDO2024ENDO_2061;    
    Importantly, chemogenetic inactivation using designer receptor exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADD) of hM4Di-expressing Pomc neurons with clozapine N-oxide (CNO; i.p., 1 mg/kg) effectively blocked BTD-induced anorexia and c-Fos expression in Pomc neurons...Our findings suggest that melanocortin receptor agonists might be effective in treating severe obesity in individuals carrying TRPC5 variants. We suggest that TRPC5 should be included in diagnostic gene panels for severe childhood-onset obesity.

    Serotonin Receptor Antagonist Alleviates Vascular Defects Produced by Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor Treatment During Gestation (ENDOExpo PosterArea - BCEC) -  May 5, 2024 - Abstract #ENDO2024ENDO_1738;    
    Preliminary work in our laboratory revealed placental apoptosis in pregnant dams treated with fluoxetine (FLX) and dams genetically deficient for the serotonin transporter gene.We hypothesize that SSRIs decrease placental blood flow, causing apoptosis and organ death via signaling through the serotonin 2A/2C receptors.Pregnant female C57BL6 mice were randomized to be treated daily, via I.P. injection, from E10-17.5 with saline (CON; n=6), 2 mg/kg FLX (n=5), or 2 mg/kg ketanserin plus 2 mg/kg FLX (n=5)...These data suggest that treatment with ketanserin could be utilized to alleviate the reproductive side effects of antidepressant usage for pregnant mothers while allowing the mother to remain on antidepressants. Future research should further investigate the effects of SSRI and ketanserin on blood flow to the fetus through the umbilical cord.

    It is important to note her concurrent use of risperidone, sertraline, and lorazepam at that time.In the first evaluation at the Endocrinology department, the patient reported amenorrhea and denied galactorrhea...Genetic counseling is recommended for these patients, particularly for those considering parenthood. It is also advisable to assess the chromosomal alteration in parents to determine if the change is inherited and to evaluate the risk to other family members.

    Confounders like vasopressors (increases catecholamines), intrinsic stress of critical illness (increases catecholamines), and quetiapine use (can increase normetanephrine levels) make it difficult to analyze labs. In these cases, a thorough history and imaging are key to establishing a diagnosis and initiating life-saving treatment.

    Sweet Moves: Hyperglycemia-related Chorea Ballismus (ENDOExpo PosterArea - BCEC) -  May 5, 2024 - Abstract #ENDO2024ENDO_1452;    
    Although stroke was also considered as a possible cause of her movement disorder, the resolution of chorea with glycemic control and risperidone made hyperglycemia related chorea-ballismus more likely...The clear mechanism of the movement disorder associated with uncontrolled diabetes has not been clearly elucidated. Nonetheless, this uncommon complication of hyperglycemia is important to recognize in order to provide appropriate and timely treatment.

    The utilization of DREADDs (Designer Receptors Exclusively Activated by Designer Drugs) that are gated by clozapine-N-oxide (CNO) enables the selective stimulation of genetically specified cell types in vivo...These results encouraged us to explore the potential application of DREADD tools in isolated human islets. We will discuss our current approaches whilst using viral vectors to drive the expression of DREADDs in human ?-cells and its impact in the overall islet secretory output.

    Other treatment options also include aripiprazole and quetiapine. However, when patients have treatment resistant macroprolactinomas and are unable to tolerate cabergoline, one would have to consider surgical treatment options for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia from pituitary macroadenomas.

    To our knowledge, the present study is the first to investigate the effects of antipsychotics on various complex behaviors (swimming performance and social behavior) in common carp, highlighting the potential health risks associated with antipsychotic drug-induced neurotoxicity in fish. Although these results do not fully elucidate the mechanisms underlying the effects of antipsychotic drugs on fish behavior, they serve as a valuable initial investigation and form the basis for future research.

    In this retrospective chart review, there was no significant difference in adverse events or therapy discontinuation between patients receiving sequential peripheral nerve block(s) and onabotulinumtoxinA injections versus those receiving either peripheral nerve block(s) or onabotulinumtoxinA injections alone. As a result, we concluded that the combination procedure is likely safe and well tolerated in routine clinical practice.

    Our investigation highlights the role of BoNT/A in reducing baseline CGRP in the context of inflammation and its involvement in SNAP-25 cleavage. In contrast, BoNT/A did not appear to alter facial pain sensitivity induced by inflammation, suggesting that mechanisms other than baseline CGRP could be implicated in the elevated thresholds in the CFA model.
