Background And Aim: To date, there is no treatment to prevent the development of temporal lobe epilepsy, the most common form of drug-resistant epilepsy. A recent study revealed the antiepileptic-like effect of the aqueous extract of . Given the potential of this extract, the antiepileptogenic- and learning and memory-facilitating-like effects of the aqueous extract of were assessed using the kainate-induced post- model.

A wild, adult male pied butcherbird (Cracticus nigrogularis) accidentally ingested 263 mg/kg of oral phenobarbital. Pronounced sedation was observed by 30 mins, followed by altered consciousness, marked ataxia and increased respiratory effort. The serum phenobarbital level on admission to a wildlife hospital was 84.

Background/aims: Phenobarbital (PB), commonly used for epilepsy management, is associated with testicular dysfunction after prolonged use. This study aimed to evaluate the ameliorative effects of cranberry (CB) and vitamin C (Vit-C) on PB-induced reproductive toxicity in rats.
Methods: Forty male Wistar rats were divided into five groups.
Risk factors and clinical characteristics associated with post-radioactive iodine thyroid storm.

Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Taichung Veterans General Hospital, 407219 , Taichung, Taiwan.
The occurrence of post-radioactive iodine thyroid storm among patients with hyperthyroidism is relatively rare and only a few cases have been reported. We conducted a literature review of cases reported from 1951 to 2023 and determined the risk factors and clinical characteristics of patients who developed thyroid storm. A total of 19 cases were documented and reviewed.

The effects of ten test chemicals towards thyroid sodium-iodide symporter (NIS), thyroid peroxidase (TPO), and deiodinases (DIOs) type I, II, and III were evaluated in in vitro rat and human systems and compared. Test chemicals known to directly affect TH levels in vivo were confirmed to effectively inhibit at least one of the tested in vitro endpoints, without significant disparities between species, and the tested compounds known to not affect thyroid function, were found ineffective. Interestingly, Iodide Transport Blocker 5, a potent non-competitive iodine uptake inhibitor, exhibited effects beyond direct NIS inhibition, by impacting NIS function through ATP depletion, and also inhibited TPO and DIO1/2 enzymes, although to a lesser extent.
