Intracavernous papaverine has found an important place in the management of male erectile failure. The effect of this mode of therapy was studied in 48 patients with psychogenic impotence. The average follow-up for this group of patients ranged from 7 months to 37 months (mean 16.3 months). All the patients in this group were advised sex therapy as an initial mode of therapy. On refusal to undergo sex therapy, they were offered an option of intracavernous papaverine injection. Papaverine appears to break the performance anxiety erectile failure cycle and was noted to have good results. Overall 57.9% patients expressed complete satisfaction with this mode of therapy. One patient (2.1%) developed priapism, which was adequately treated with intracavernous epinephrine. Use of low dosage of papaverine is suggested as an additional mode of therapy in the management of psychogenic impotence.

Association of player position and functional connectivity alterations in collegiate American football players: an fMRI study.
Front Neurol
January 2025
Department of Kinesiology, Penn State University, 19 Recreation Building, University Park, PA, United States.
Introduction: Resting state-fMRI, provides a sensitive method for detecting changes in brain functional integrity, both with respect to regional oxygenated blood flow and whole network connectivity. The primary goal of this report was to examine alterations in functional connectivity in collegiate American football players after a season of repetitive head impact exposure.
Methods: Collegiate football players completed a rs-fMRI at pre-season and 1 week into post-season.
Suppression of MCP-1, IFN-γ and IL-6 production of HNSCC by pembrolizumab added to docetaxel and cisplatin (TP) exceeding those of TP alone is linked to improved survival.

Background: Adding pembrolizumab, an anti-PD-1 antibody approved for treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) to neoadjuvant (induction-) chemotherapy utilizing docetaxel and cisplatin (TP) followed by radiotherapy may improve outcome in larynx organ-preservation (LOP) that is investigated in the European Larynx-Organ preservation Study (ELOS). As biomarkers for response to TP and pembrolizumab +TP are missing but may include cytokines, this work aims on determining cytokines potentially linked to outcome as prognostic markers sufficient to predict and/or monitor response to successful LOP.
Methods: Collagenase IV digests were generated from 47 histopathological confirmed HNSCC tumor samples and seeded in 96-well plates containing pembrolizumab, docetaxel, cisplatin either solely or in binary or ternary combination.
Dual-mode-driven nanomotors targeting inflammatory macrophages for the MRI and synergistic treatment of atherosclerosis.

With the progress of atherosclerosis (AS), the arterial lumen stenosis and compact plaque structure, the thickening intima and the narrow gaps between endothelial cells significantly limit the penetration efficiency of nanoprobe to plaque, weakening the imaging sensitivity and therapy efficiency. Thus, in this study, a HO-NIR dual-mode nanomotor, Gd-doped mesoporous carbon nanoparticles/Pt with rapamycin (RAPA) loading and AntiCD36 modification (Gd-MCNs/Pt-RAPA-AC) was constructed. The asymmetric deposition of Pt on Gd-MCNs catalyzed HO at the inflammatory site to produce O, which could promote the self-motion of the nanomotor and ease inflammation microenvironment of AS plaque.

Objective: Shared medical appointments (SMAs) are an innovative care delivery method that provides delivery of clinical care while also supporting self-management. Their usefulness for mental health conditions has only briefly been explored, though early evidence demonstrates their utility for supporting mental health management. Therefore, this study set out to better understand the views that adults with anxiety and depression have towards SMAs as a way of receiving care to support self-management in primary care.

Objectives: Neonatal pain prevention is not only a humanistic but also an ethical imperative. Fitting with the principles of family-centred care, parental involvement in neonatal pain management plays an active role in infant development and parental well-being. However, the process of parental involvement faces constant challenges.
