Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a prevalent gastrointestinal disease characterized by the chronical and refractory inflammation of colorectal mucosa and walls, which severely impairs overall well-being of individuals. Probiotics has shown tremendous promise for UC therapy due to its multifaceted mucosal barrier restoration and immunomodulation capabilities. Nevertheless, the successful administration of probiotics remains a clinical obstacle.

Purpose: The Locus Coeruleus (LC) plays a vital role by releasing norepinephrine, which contributes to the antiepileptic effects of Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS). LC activity also influences pupil dilation. Investigating VNS dose-dependent Pupillary Dilation Response (PDR) may provide novel neurophysiological insights into therapeutic response and allow for an objective and personalized optimization of stimulation parameters.

Background: Several cases of pheochromocytoma presenting with hypertensive crises after anesthesia induction, possibly caused by rocuronium injection, have been reported. Rocuronium has two compositions: rocuronium bromide (RB) in sodium acetate hydrate/acetic acid buffer solution (acetic acid vehicle) and RB in glycine/hydrochloric acid buffer solution (hydrochloric acid vehicle). This study assessed the effect of rocuronium composition on the release of catecholamine from PC-12 rat adrenal pheochromocytoma cells.

Pheochromocytomas are neuroendocrine tumors that derive from sympathetic adrenomedullary chromaffin tissue and produce catecholamines. Due to the excess release of catecholamines, they can produce arterial hypertension, tachycardia, sweating, headache and a large number of other clinical manifestations secondary to the stimulation of α and β adrenoreceptors. Screening for pheochromocytoma is recommended in patients with paroxysmal, resistant or early-onset arterial hypertension, in cases with symptoms suggestive of catecholamine hypersecretion, patients with hereditary syndromes associated with pheochromocytomas, diabetes mellitus of atypical presentation and in adrenal incidentalomas with radiological characteristics not typical of adenoma (with > 10 Hounsfield Units on non-contrast CT).
