Background: Sedation is often required for pediatric medical imaging procedures to ensure compliance and image quality. Recommendations for pediatric sedation exist, but there are currently no guidelines for the choice of the sedative drug.
Objective: To compare the efficacy and adverse events of per os pentobarbital with intravenous chlorpromazine in children undergoing diagnostic imaging procedures.

Few studies using Positron Emission Tomography with F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG-PET) have examined the neurobiological basis of antipsychotic resistance in schizophrenia, primarily focusing on metabolic activity, with none investigating connectivity patterns. Here, we aimed to explore differential patterns of glucose metabolism between patients and controls (CTRL) through a graph theory-based approach and network comparison tests. PET scans with F-FDG were obtained by 70 subjects, 26 with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS), 28 patients responsive to antipsychotics (nTRS), and 16 CTRL.

Objective: One in every 4 individuals born with a 22q11.2 microdeletion will develop schizophrenia. Thirty years of clinical genetic testing capability have enabled detection of this major molecular susceptibility for psychotic illness.

Chlorpromazine (CPZ) is a first-generation neuroleptic with well-established antitumor and antiviral properties. Currently, numerous studies are focused on developing new methods for CPZ delivery; however, the knowledge regarding its conjugates with metal nanoparticles remains limited. The aim of this study was to prepare CPZ conjugates with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and evaluate their biological activity on human lymphocytes (HUT-78 and COLO 720L), as well as human (COLO 679) and murine (B16-F0) melanoma cells, in comparison to the effects induced by unconjugated CPZ molecules and AuNPs with well-defined properties.

The pharmaceutical industry is increasingly drawn to the research of innovative drug delivery systems through the use of supercritical CO (scCO)-based techniques. Measuring the solubility of drugs in scCO at varying conditions is a crucial parameter in this context. In this research, the supercritical solubility of two pharmaceutical ingredients, namely Febuxostat and Chlorpromazine, has been assessed theoretically using various thermodynamic approaches, including PR, SRK, UNIQUAC, and Wilson models.
