Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tramadol hydrochloride with behavioral modification in delaying ejaculation in patients with premature ejaculation.
Methods: Seventy-two potent men with premature ejaculation were equally and randomly assigned to a treatment group and control group, the former received 50 mg tramadol hydrochloride with behavioral modification approximately 2 hours before planned sexual activity, while the latter underwent behavioral therapy only, both treated for 8 weeks. Intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT), intercourse satisfaction of the partners, total therapeutic effectiveness, adverse reactions, and hepatic and renal function of the patients were recorded and compared before and after the treatment.
Results: Both the treatment and the control groups showed significant differences from pretreatment in the mean IELT and intercourse satisfaction domain values (P < 0.01). The total rate of effectiveness was 72.2% in the treatment group and 47.2% in the control. The former exhibited even more significant improvement than the latter in the mean IELT, intercourse satisfaction domain values and total rate of effectiveness (P < 0.05). Adverse reactions occurred in 10 cases (27.8%), and no statistically significant differences were found in hepatic and renal function before and after treatment (P > 0.05).
Conclusion: Tramadol hydrochloride with behavioral modification showed positive effects in prolonging IELT and improving partners' intercourse satisfaction. Yet more multicenter and double-blind studies are required to evaluate its efficacy and safety as a routine therapy for premature ejaculation.

Background: The effect of high consumption of psychoactive substances of codeine (CDE), tramadol (TMD), and Cannabis sativa (CNB) as concoction has been associated with altered brain cognitive and neurochemical functions. However, the understanding of the complex mechanism behind the intake of Cannabis sativa co-administration with tramadol and codeine on both cardiac and brain function, neurotransmitters, purinergic, and antioxidant enzymes activities in the brain and heart of rats remains unreported.
Method: The measure of cognition using morris water maze (MWM) and Y-maze tests, hemodynamic parameters namely systolic blood pressure (SBP) and heart rate (HR), acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyl-cholinesterase (BCHE), adenosine deaminase (ADA), arginase, catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes' activities, reduced glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO) levels, in the brain and heart of CNB, TMD, and CDE exposed rats was done.

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Objective: To determine hospital length of stay (LOS) and long-term opioid consumption among patients who received inpatient multimodal analgesia following lumbar spine surgery, as opposed to those who received opioids alone.
Summary Of Background Data: Opioids have long been the historical choice for managing postoperative pain.
Individual Pharmacotherapy Management (IPM-II) for Patient and Drug Safety in Polypharmacy via Clinical Electronic Health Record Is Associated with Significant Fall Prevention.

Department of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Reconstructive Surgery, Division of Geriatric Traumatology, University Hospital Halle (Saale), Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, 06120 Halle (Saale), Germany.
Background/objectives: Falls and fractures are emerging as a near-pandemic and major global health concern, placing an enormous burden on ageing patients and public health economies. Despite the high risk of polypharmacy in the elderly patients, falls are usually attributed to age-related changes. For the "Individual Pharmacotherapy Management (IPM)" established at the University Hospital Halle, the IPM medication adjustments and their association with in-hospital fall prevention were analysed.

Objective: The present study aimed to compare time to effective pain relief between diclofenac 75 mg intramuscular (IM) and tramadol 50 mg intravenous (IV) for ED patients with acute renal colic.
Methods: A randomised, double-blinded, sham-controlled, superiority trial was conducted. Patients diagnosed with acute renal colic (hydronephrosis and/or stone visualisation on point-of-care ultrasound) in the ED were randomly assigned to receive an IM injection of 75 mg of diclofenac or IV tramadol 50 mg.

A low-cost and renewable magnetite-pine bark (MPB) sorbent was evaluated in continuous-flow systems for the removal of various pharmaceuticals from municipal wastewater effluent following membrane bioreactor (MBR) treatment. A 33-day small-scale column test (bed volume: 791 cm) was conducted using duplicate columns of biochar (BC, Novocarbo) and activated carbon (AC, ColorSorb) as reference for two columns of BC and MPB in order to compare the efficiency of AC and MPB. After the small-scale column test, the pharmaceutical concentrations were generally below the detection limit.
