Neuropeptides are key signaling molecules in the endocrine and nervous systems that regulate many critical physiological processes. Understanding the functions of neuropeptides in vivo requires the ability to monitor their dynamics with high specificity, sensitivity, and spatiotemporal resolution. However, this has been hindered by the lack of direct, sensitive, and noninvasive tools.

Objective: To analyze the effect and safety of ultrasound-guided continuous stellate ganglion blockade (CSGB) on neurovascular headache.
Methods: The clinical data of 137 patients with neurovascular headache treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from March 2019 to October 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the treatment schemes, the patients were assigned to the control group (69 cases, treated with flunarizine combined with Oryzanol tablets), or the observation group (68 cases, treated with ultrasound-guided CSGB on the basis of the treatment to the control group).

For the majority of hypertensive patients, the etiology of their disease is unknown. The hypothalamus is a central structure of the brain which provides an adaptive, integrative, autonomic, and neuroendocrine response to any fluctuations in physiological conditions of the external or internal environment. Hypothalamic insufficiency leads to severe metabolic and functional disorders, including persistent increase in blood pressure.

Our understanding about the epidemiological aspects, pathogenesis, molecular diagnosis, and targeted therapies of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) have drastically advanced in the past decade. Gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) NENs originate from the enteroendocrine cells of the embryonic gut which share common endocrine and neural differentiation factors. Most NENs are well-differentiated, and slow growing.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), continues to be a world-wide pandemic with overwhelming socioeconomic impact. Since inflammation is one of the major causes of COVID-19 complications, the associated molecular mechanisms have been the focus of many studies to better understand this disease and develop improved treatments for patients contracting SARS-CoV-2. Among these, strong emphasis has been placed on pro-inflammatory cytokines, associating severity of COVID-19 with so-called "cytokine storm.
