Evaluating the risk of mild serotonin syndrome in primary care: a retrospective case series of patients with treatment-resistant depression.
AME Case Rep
November 2024
Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London, UK.
Background: Serotonin syndrome is an adverse drug reaction characterised by the excess of serotonin activity in the central nervous system. It is a condition of great concern in primary care where some patients, usually with treatment-resistant depression, get treatment with multiple serotonergic agents.
Case Description: This retrospective case series looked at 20 primary care patients with treatment-resistant depression who developed mild serotonin syndrome after starting a second antidepressant.
Stable Gastric Pentadecapeptide BPC 157 as a Therapy of Severe Electrolyte Disturbances in Rats.
Curr Neuropharmacol
January 2025
Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia.
This review explores the therapeutic potential of the stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 in addressing electrolyte imbalances, specifically hyperkalemia, hypokalemia, hypermagnesemia, and hyperlithemia. In hyperkalemia, BPC 157 demonstrated a comprehensive counteractive effect against KCl overdose (intraperitoneally, intragastrically, and in vitro), effectively mitigating symptoms such as muscular weakness, hypertension, sphincter dysfunction, arrhythmias, and lethality. It also counteracted the adverse effects of succinylcholine and magnesium overdose, including systemic muscle paralysis, arrhythmias, and hyperkalemia.

: Myoclonus is already associated with a wide variety of drugs and systemic conditions. As new components are discovered, more drugs are suspected of causing this disabling abnormal involuntary movement. This systematic review aims to assess the medications associated with drug-induced myoclonus (DIM).

State Key Laboratory of Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome, Department of Neurology, Guangdong Provincial Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Guangzhou, China.
Background: A stable and reproducible experimental bacterial pneumonia model postintracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is necessary to help investigating the pathogenesis and novel treatments of Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP).
Aim: To establish a Gram-negative bacterial pneumonia-complicating ICH rat model and an acute lung injury (ALI)-complicating ICH rat model.
Methods: We established two standardized models of post-ICH pneumonia by nasal inoculation with () or intratracheal inoculation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
Challenges in the Management of Severe Serotonin Syndrome: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Kaweah Delta Health Care District, Visalia, USA.
Serotonin syndrome (SS) is a potentially life-threatening condition that can result from excessive serotonergic activity, often due to SSRIs, formally known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. The syndrome and its effects are often secondary to drug-drug interactions or dose-related. This case highlights a 47-year-old female who presents with a history of major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and severe alcohol use disorder.
