We report a case of 77-year-old woman with fulminant type 1 diabetes (T1D) who developed diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) after the second dose of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine tozinameran. The patient had been diagnosed as having T1D associated with an immune-related adverse event caused by pembrolizumab at the age of 75. After the second dose of tozinameran, she developed DKA and needed intravenous insulin infusion and mechanical ventilation. Although the direct causal relationship between the vaccination and the DKA episode could not be proven in this case, published literatures had suggested the possibility of developing DKA after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with T1D. As the magnitude of the risk of the combination of the known adverse drug reactions of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine and T1D patients' vulnerability to sick-day conditions is not yet thoroughly assessed, future studies such as a non-interventional study with adequate sample size would be required to address this issue.

Importance: The rise of high-potency opioids such as fentanyl makes buprenorphine initiation challenging due to the risks of precipitated withdrawal, prompting the exploration of strategies, such as low-dose initiation (LDI) of buprenorphine. However, no comparative studies on LDI outcomes exist.
Objective: To evaluate outpatient outcomes associated with 2 LDI protocols of buprenorphine among individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) using fentanyl.

Background: To investigate the toxicity of N-n-butyl haloperidol iodide (F2), a quaternary ammonium salt derivative of haloperidol, in mice for potential therapeutic purposes.
Methods: The acute median lethal dose (LD) of F2 was determined using the Bliss method following intravenous administration in mice. Routine surface electrocardiograms (ECGs) and arterial blood pressures (aBPs) were recorded under general anesthesia in untreated and pharmacologically vagotomized mice injected with F2.

Congenital heart disease (CHD) represents a major birth defect associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Although environmental factors are acknowledged as potential contributors to CHD, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Bisphenol A (BPA), a common endocrine disruptor, has attracted significant attention due to its widespread use and associated health risks.

Ischemic stroke is a worldwide disease with high mortality and morbidity. Kv7/KCNQ channels are key modulators of neuronal excitability and microglia function, and activation of Kv7/KCNQ channels has emerged as a potential therapeutic avenue for ischemic stroke. In the present study, we focused on a new Kv7/KCNQ channel opener QO-83 on the stroke outcomes and its therapeutic potential.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections in infants and children. mRNA vaccines based on the lipopolyplex (LPP) platform have been previously reported, but they remain unapplied in RSV vaccine development. In this study, we developed a novel LPP-delivered mRNA vaccine that expresses the respiratory syncytial virus prefusion protein (RSV pre-F) to evaluate its immunogenicity and protective effect in a mouse model.
