Background: Intranasal mucosal melanoma is a rare form of melanoma. Presenting as the features of occult malignancy and rapid in its progression. Presented with nonspecific symptoms. So far, no specific risk factor has been identified. The histopathological and immunohistochemical examination helps to confirm the diagnosis. Here, we present a case of primary intranasal melanotic mucosal melanoma and literature review.

Case Report: The authors present a patient with primary right intranasal melanotic mucosal melanoma.

Conclusion: An endoscopic medial maxillectomy was done, and the patient was linked to the oncology department for radiotherapy.

Pharmacogenetic and pharmacokinetic factors for dexmedetomidine-associated hemodynamic instability in pediatric patients.

Front Pharmacol

January 2025

Institute of Clinical Pharmacology, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China.

Purpose: The incidence of hemodynamic instability associated with dexmedetomidine (DEX) sedation has been reported to exceed 50%, with substantial inter-individual variability in response. Genetic factors have been suggested to contribute significantly to such variation. The aim of this study was to identify the clinical, pharmacokinetic, and genetic factors associated with DEX-induced hemodynamic instability in pediatric anesthesia patients.

Interactions between live attenuated influenza vaccine and nasopharyngeal microbiota among children aged 24-59 months in The Gambia: a phase 4, open-label, randomised controlled trial.

Lancet Microbe

January 2025

Centre for Inflammation Research, Queen's Medical Research Institute, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK; Department of Paediatric Immunology and Infectious Diseases, Wilhelmina Children's Hospital-University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands. Electronic address:

Background: Live attenuated influenza vaccines (LAIVs) alter nasopharyngeal microbiota in adults. It is poorly understood why LAIV immunogenicity varies across populations, but it could be linked to the microbiome. We aimed to investigate the interactions between intranasal immunisation with LAIV and nasopharyngeal microbiota composition in children from The Gambia.

Introduction: Esketamine has unique advantages in combination with dexmedetomidine for sedation in young children, owing to its sympathetic activity and mild respiratory depression. However, the optimal dose is yet to be determined. In this study, we compared the different doses of intranasal esketamine combined with dexmedetomidine for sedation during transthoracic echocardiography in toddlers.

Introduction/objective: Data on long-term treatment with Esketamine Nasal Spray (ESKNS) in real-world patients with treatment resistant depression (TRD) is scarce. The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of ESK-NS treatment at 6 and 12-month follow-ups.

Methods: This is part of an observational, retrospective, multicentric Italian study (REAL-ESK study).

The objective was to determine the effects of injectable trace minerals (ITM, containing Se, Cu, Zn & Mn) administered at the time of primary intranasal (IN) modified-live virus (MLV) vaccination of young dairy calves on the serum neutralizing antibody (SNA) titers to Bovine herpes virus 1 (BHV1), Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV), and Bovine Parainfluenza type 3 virus (BPIV); cytokine expression in peripheral white blood cells, and BHV1-specific IgA titers in nasal secretions following the vaccination. A total of 60 calves (1 month old) were administered an IN MLV vaccine containing BHV1, BRSV, BPIV (Inforce 3) and randomly assigned to one of two experimental groups: ITM (n = 30; Multimin90, containing Se, Cu, Zn, and Mn) or SAL (n = 30; sterile saline). There was a consistent decay in virus-specific SNA titers in both groups.
