Background: Excessive exposure to adrenergic vasopressors may be harmful. Non-adrenergic vasopressors may spare adrenergic agents and potentially improve outcomes. We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the efficacy of non-adrenergic vasopressors in adult patients receiving vasopressor therapy for vasodilatory shock or perioperative vasoplegia.

() is an obligate, intracellular, neurotropic protozoan parasite. After primary infection, parasite undergoes stage conversion from fast-replicating tachyzoites to slow-replicating dormant bradyzoites, particularly in the brain, and persists for a lifetime of an individual. In this study, the impact of infection in individuals with psychological disorder, that is, major depressive disorder (MDD) has been studied.

Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children, with variable outcomes ranging from spontaneous remission to high-risk cases often leading to relapse or refractory disease. Approximately 50% of patients with NB have high-risk features, often experiencing relapse or refractory disease despite intensive treatments and the prognosis remains poor, with long-term event-free survival (EFS) rates below 10%,Radioactive iodine-labeled meta-iodobenzylguanidine (¹³¹I-mIBG) therapy, leveraging NB cells' radiosensitivity and expression of the norepinephrine transporter (NET), has shown promise in treating relapsed or refractory NB. Since 1985, ¹³¹I-mIBG has been studied to determine the maximum tolerated dose and side effects, with recent trials exploring its use in front-line treatment.

Background: Increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the pathological process of dry eye disease. Our previous results suggested that norepinephrine (NE) has a protective effect on dry eye.
Purpose: This study explored the potential therapeutic role and underlying mechanisms of NE in benzalkonium chloride (BAC)-induced dry eye disease.

Background: Tramadol is an adulterant of illicit opioids. As it is a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor as well as a μ-opioid agonist, tramadol adulteration may worsen overdose signs and symptoms or affect the amount of naloxone patients receive.
Methods: This is a multicenter, prospective cohort of adult patients with suspected opioid overdoses who presented to one of eight United States emergency departments and were included in the Toxicology Investigators Consortium's Fentalog Study.
