Advances in the Neuroscience of Addiction



Cynthia M. Kuhn, George F. Koob - Advances in the Neuroscience of Addiction
CRC Press | ISBN: 0849373913 | 2010-04-05 | PDF | 238 pages | 12.40 Mb

Understanding the phenomenon of long-lasting vulnerability to addiction is essential to developing successful treatments. Written by a distinguished international team of contributors who are authorities in their respective fields, Advances in the Neuroscience of Addiction provides an excellent overview of the available and emerging approaches used to investigate the biologic mechanisms of drug addiction. It also delineates the promising research discoveries being made in relapse prevention.

The book begins with current animal models of addiction, which mimic the state of humans entering treatment: recently-abstinent animals that receive common triggers for relapse (classical conditioning, stress, and neuroadaptive dysregulation). Coverage then shifts to the use of electrophysiologic approaches, which enable researchers to characterize the discharge patterns of single neurons during drug self-administration. After exploring advances in voltammetry and enzyme-linked biosensors for measuring glutamate, the book discusses the theoretical background and results of neuroimaging studies related to neuronal networks that are activated by drug-specific cues. It then describes modern genetic approaches to manipulate target proteins that influence addictive behavior.

The book rounds out its coverage by illustrating how a neuroeconomic approach can inform studies of reward processing in general and addiction in particular. It is a comprehensive introduction to the methodologies of the field for students and beginning researchers and an essential reference source for established investigators.

Pancreatic Cancer 2008 Edition


 

Since the previous M.D. Anderson Solid Tumor Oncology Series publication on pancreatic cancer, there have been major advances in our understanding of molecular events which underlie pancreatic cancer development, both in the sporadic and inherited forms. We have seen the development of the first mouse models that accurately recapitulate features of the human disease. Several landmark clinical trials in both resectable and metastatic pancreatic cancer have been completed, raising new questions about the standard of care in this disease. Finally, the era of targeted biologic therapies has engendered new excitement about the prospects of more rapid progress in understanding and successfully treating this dreadful disease. Therefore, it is an appropriate time to review these important advances and outline areas of controversy and question in pancreatic cancer biology and treatment.

Cambiando conceptos sobre Hipertension

Limitations of the usual blood-pressure hypothesis and importance of variability, instability, and episodic hypertension

Prof Peter M Rothwell FMedSci a Corresponding AuthorEmail Address

Summary

Although hypertension is the most prevalent treatable vascular risk factor, how it causes end-organ damage and vascular events is poorly understood. Yet, a widespread belief exists that underlying usual blood pressure can alone account for all blood-pressure-related risk of vascular events and for the benefits of antihypertensive drugs, and this notion has come to underpin all major clinical guidelines on diagnosis and treatment of hypertension. Other potentially informative measures, such as variability in clinic blood pressure or maximum blood pressure reached, have been neglected, and effects of antihypertensive drugs on such measures are largely unknown. Clinical guidelines recommend that episodic hypertension is not treated, and the potential risks of residual variability in blood pressure in treated hypertensive patients have been ignored. This Review discusses shortcomings of the usual blood-pressure hypothesis, provides background to accompanying reports on the importance of blood-pressure variability in prediction of risk of vascular events and in accounting for benefits of antihypertensive drugs, and draws attention to clinical implications and directions for future research.

Buenos días
 
La vida está llena de ventajas y desventajas. Nadie entiende esto mejor que una persona con una enfermedad crónica o discapacidad.
 
¿Debería existir el esfuerzo para disminuir los costos de tratamiento?¿O el énfasis debería ser puesto en el desarrollo de nuevos y mejores tratamientos?

Procalcitonina e Infecciones [Archivo adjunto 1]


 
[Más abajo se incluyen archivos adjuntos de Manuel Mayorga]

La procalcitonina (PCT) es sintetizada por un amplio numero de tejidos y organos en respuesta a la invasion por bacterias, pero tambien por algunos parasitos (malaria) y hongos. Los examenes actuales de PCT son rapidos, especificos  y lo suficientemente sensibles para detectar incrementos en los niveles sericos de PCT dentro de las 4 a 6 horas de inicio de la infeccion. Desde el punto de vista de nuestra practica clinica los niveles de PCT pueden ayudarnos a tomar decisiones respecto a la necesidad de iniciar tratamiento antibiotico empirico (diferenciar entre infeccion viral vs bacteriana), evaluar el adecuado control del foco primario en las infecciones quirurgicas y la duracion del tratamiento antimicrobiano. El dosaje de PCT junto con los cultivos tambien nos permitiria discernir entre colonizacion vs infeccion por bacterias patogenicas.

Este examen ya se encuentra en el Peru desde hace buen tiempo pero creo que aun no hemos podido sacarle el debido provecho. Dado su alto valor predictivo negativo me parece que es una valiosa herramienta para un uso mas racional y prudente de los antibioticos en el ambito hospitalario, permitiendo tambien el desescalamiento o descontinuacion precoz de antibioticos, especialmente en la UCI. ¿A lo mejor tambien podria ser agregado dentro de la pregunta 4 del checklist en UCI?

Adjunto les envio un minireview publicado en el ultimo numero del Journal of Clinical Microbiology sobre este tema que debemos retomar.

date rape:betahidroxibutirato

1.        Gamma-hydroxybutyrate. An endogenous short-chain fatty acid that occurs naturally in the body, this illegal substance is not detected by standard toxicology screens. It has emerged as an important intoxicant. It is often sold to participants at large dance parties ("raves") and has been responsible for mass intoxications (Prehosp Emerg Care 3:357, 1999 ). It has also been used as a "date rape" drug. Synonyms include "liquid Ecstasy," "liquid E," "grievous bodily harm," "Georgia home boy," "soap," "salty water," and "organic Quaaludes."

a.        Symptoms include ataxia, nystagmus, somnolence progressing to coma, vomiting, and random clonic movements of the face and extremities. EEG recording supports the belief that these represent myoclonus and not true seizures. Respiratory depression may progress to apnea.

b.        Treatment. Absorption is very rapid, and lavage and activated charcoal administration are of little use. Do not induce emesis. The drug is not antagonized by naloxone or flumazenil. Experimental but no clinical evidence has been found for the use of physostigmine, and its use is not recommended. Administer oxygen and protect the airway; monitor oxygenation. Obtain electrolytes and glucose and establish an IV line. Stimulation, including endotracheal intubation, may stimulate violently aggressive behavior. Give atropine for persistent symptomatic bradycardia. Treat hypotension with IV fluids; pressors are rarely necessary. Obtain an ECG and monitor the cardiac rhythm continuously. Intoxication is usually short lived; coma typically lasts for 1-2 hours, and full recovery often occurs within 8 hours. Stable asymptomatic patients can be discharged after 6 hours of observation. Admit any patient who is still clinically intoxicated after 6 hours (Ann Emerg Med 31:729, 1998 ).


Date rape

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

"Date rape", often referred to as "acquaintance rape", is an assault or attempted assault usually commited by a new acquaintance involving sexual intercourse without mutual consent.[1][2]

  • The term "date rape" is widely used. But most experts prefer the term "drug-facilitated sexual assault." However, this term evidently has a more limited scope as it does not include non-drug-assisted rapes. These drugs also are used to help people commit other crimes, like robbery and physical assault. They are used on both men and women. The term "date rape" also can be misleading because the person who commits the crime might not be dating the victim. Rather, it could be an acquaintance or stranger.[3]

[edit] Drug-facilitated date rape

Drug-facilitated date rape is the use of drugs to assist the attacker in a rape. The drug can be any substance that is physical or mind altering.

Drug facilitated sexual assault (DFSA), which is considered an umbrella term for crimes such as drug-facilitated date rape, differs from many rapes in that it is not typically a crime of physical violence but rather of sexual hedonism and entitlement.

Instances of drug facilitated sexual assault have been found in the Bible.[4]

While the phenomenon is not new DFSA emerged as public concern that mostly occurred in social settings. Alcohol was the original date rape agent.

Rohypnol[5] (trade name for Flunitrazepam), is commonly known as a "club drug" because it is usually used in dance clubs and raves. Street names include: Circles, Forget Pill, LA Rochas, Lunch Money, Mexican Valium, Mind Erasers, Roach, Roopies, Roofies, R-2, Roches Dos, Rope, Rophies, Stupifi, Shays, Groundies, etc.[1][3]

Ketamine[6] is commonly known as: Black Hole, Bump, Cat Valium, Green, Jet, K, Kit Kat, Psychedelic heroin, Purple, Special K, Super Acid, Keller, Super C, etc.[3][7]

In 2001, Dr. Michael Welner published pioneering research on the typology of drug-facilitated rapists. The typology has since been cited and used by law enforcement and mental health professionals for distinguishing different perpetrators, their personalities, and their psychological makeup.[8]

The Typology of Drug facilitated sexual assault Includes

•Setting: Typology is best distinguished by the setting in which the attack takes place (e.g. Workplace Setting, Healthcare Setting or Social Setting).

•Accomplices and Conspiracies: There may be multiple perpetrators who conspire to commit the crime. Particularly in social settings, confirmed cases have involved male and female couple collaborators, siblings and friends.

•Intrafamilial DFSA: Many intrafamilial DFSA's often go unreported. Typically there is a power differential that prevent victims from speaking out.

•Male-on-male Offenses: Such cases occur nearly exclusively in social or school settings. Often the crime reflects the perpetrators conflicted feelings about private same-sex thought and desires.

•Sexual Deviance or Sexual Hunters: This group often includes those who are incompetent at finding sexual partners and those who have sexual fantasies of dominance.

[edit] Laws

[edit] United States

In 1996, President Clinton signed the Drug-Induced Rape Prevention and Punishment Act. This act punishes for the use of the drug called Rohypnol. Four years later, the president signed another legislation banning GHB.

People who use date rape drugs have a risk of up to an additional 20 years in prison. Any possession of Rohypnol, even if there is no intent of using it, has a sentence of up to three years in prison. Every state has laws pertaining to rape.[9][10][11]

Indiana has a statute which makes the offense a Class A felony if "the commission of the offense is facilitated by furnishing the victim, without the victim's knowledge, with a drug ... or a controlled substance ... or knowing that the victim was furnished with the drug or controlled substance without the victim's knowledge."[12] (see drink spiking)
