Resistography was used in experiments on anesthetized cats to show that reserpine produced biphasic (dilatation and constrictor) reactions on the part of the cerebral, extracranial and peripheral vessels. The dilatation reaction occurred immediately after the drug administration, it was intermittent and preserved after the blockade of the adreno- and cholinoreceptors. During electric stimulation of the cervical sympathetic ganglia, reserpine insignificantly reduced constrictor reactions of the vessels and inhibited depressor reactions. After intravenous injection of rausedyl the cerebral blood flow and oxygen consumption by the brain tissue decreased.

Department of Urology, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University, Nanchang, China. Electronic address:

Objective: Mitotane is currently the only product approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of adrenocortical cancer. However, there is a lack of comprehensive studies on the adverse events of mitotane.

Methods: Adverse event reports for mitotane in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database since 2004 were collected and analyzed to identify mitotane as the primary suspect drug.

Salmonella enterica subsp houtenae has been recovered from a wide variety of species, including reptiles, and has been linked to important clinical manifestations in snakes and lizards. We describe a case of concomitant fibrinonecrotic enteritis and orchitis associated with S. enterica subsp houtenae infection in a short-tailed boa (Boa constrictor amarali).

A Multiplex RT-PCR Method for the Detection of Reptarenavirus Infection.

Viruses

November 2023

The BIBD Group and Institute of Veterinary Pathology, Vetsuisse Faculty, University of Zurich, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland.

Article Synopsis
  • Reptarenaviruses are responsible for Boid Inclusion Body Disease (BIBD), a serious and fatal illness affecting both wild and captive constrictor snakes, posing economic and ecological challenges.
  • The disease is characterized by intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies (IBs) in various cell types, which are key for diagnosis; however, they may not always appear in healthy carriers, complicating detection and allowing the disease to spread.
  • A new multiplex RT-PCR method has been developed for detecting multiple reptarenaviruses in blood samples with high sensitivity, potentially improving monitoring and control efforts in snake populations.

Background: Most newly diagnosed oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal cancers are treated with chemoradiotherapy with curative intent but at the consequence of adverse effects on quality of life. We aimed to investigate if dysphagia-optimised intensity-modulated radiotherapy (DO-IMRT) reduced radiation dose to the dysphagia and aspiration related structures and improved swallowing function compared with standard IMRT.

Methods: DARS was a parallel-group, phase 3, multicentre, randomised, controlled trial done in 22 radiotherapy centres in Ireland and the UK.
