Department of Pediatrics, Toranomon Hospital, Tokyo, JPN.
Background: Oral propranolol therapy is currently the first choice for infants with infantile hemangiomas (IHs) requiring systemic treatment. This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of oral propranolol therapy for IHs and to assess the role of a multidisciplinary medical team in supporting optimal treatment.
Materials And Methods: Clinical data were retrospectively reviewed from medical records in 150 Japanese infants with IH treated with propranolol orally at Toranomon Hospital.
Effective Treatment With Oral Propranolol for Congenital Intracranial Hemangioma in a Neonate: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Department of Pediatrics, The Jikei University School of Medicine, Tokyo, JPN.
Congenital intracranial hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors that develop before birth. Although various treatments, including surgery, steroids, interferon-α, thalidomide, bevacizumab, or propranolol, have been reported, no standard therapy has been established. We report the case of a neonate with congenital intracranial hemangioma and central nervous system symptoms requiring therapeutic intervention.

J Clin Gastroenterol
November 2024
Departments of Gastroenterology.
Introduction And Objectives: The portal vein pressure higher than 10 mm Hg in patients with hepatic cirrhosis is more likely to have serious complications and poor prognosis. Nonselective receptor blockers (NSBBs) can reduce the portal vein pressure; however, the efficacy and safety of different NSBBs in reducing portal vein pressure were unconsistent. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of carvedilol versus propranolol in reducing portal vein pressure in this study.

Background: Traumatic injury leads to gut dysbiosis with changes in microbiome diversity and conversion toward a "pathobiome" signature characterized by a selective overabundance of pathogenic bacteria. The use of non-selective beta antagonism in trauma patients has been established as a useful adjunct to reduce systemic inflammation. We sought to investigate whether beta-adrenergic blockade following trauma would prevent the conversion of microbiome to a "pathobiome" phenotype.
