Drug Repositioning in Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity Protection (2025)

Doxorubicin (DOX) is an effective drug for the treatment of solid tumors and hematological malignancies in both children and adults. The most serious side effect is doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC), which can lead to cardiomyopathy and irreversible and highly fatal cardiac decompensation. The precise mechanisms underlying DIC are not fully understood, and currently, no fully effective preventive or therapeutic strategies exist. Drug repositioning has emerged as a promising approach to mi

Pharmacotherapeutic challenges for treating the baby boomer cohort (2023)

As the baby boomer cohort ages, they have an ever-increasing number of comorbidities and associated poly-pharmaceutical treatment needs. The challenge for healthcare providers is to stay current of advancements in providing for this aging population. Baby boomers can expect a longer life expectancy than any previous generation. Yet, longevity has not correlated with better health. This cohort is noted for being goal driven and more self-assured than younger generations. They are resourceful and

EFFECT OF SPIRITUAL INTERVENTION ON STRESS MANAGEMENT AMONG STUDENT MOTHERS IN KENYAN PUBLIC SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN KENYA: A CASE OF BUNGOMA COUNTY, KENYA (2024)

Furthermore, student motherhood hinders the chance of the student mother from completing her studies. In Kenya, teenage pregnancy thwarts achievements in the education of the girl child. The objective of this study was to establish the effect of spiritual intervention on st

THE MEDICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF LONELINESS AND SOCIAL ISOLATION IN OLD AGE (literature review) (2024)

Общение считается одной из базовых потребностей человека. Долгое время одиночество и социальная изоляция считались преимущественно психосоциальной проблемой.

Цель работы — изучение современных данных литературы о медицинских последствиях одиночества и социальной изоляции у лиц пожилого возраста. Анализ данных показал, что оди

PMS Affective Symptoms Indirectly Linked to Cannabis Use Frequency and Problems via Cannabis Coping Motives (2021)

Background: Women with PMS have higher rates of substance use disorders but underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Research on the links of PMS to problematic substance use has largely omitted consideration of cannabis use. Design/Method: To fill these gaps, 87 cannabis using women (mean age = 28.9 years) completed a cross-sectional survey involving self-reports on their PMS symptoms on the Pre-Menstrual Scale – Short Form (PMS-SF), their usual motives for cannabis use on the Marijuana

Efeitos do Canabidiol na ansiedade induzida pela rememoração do evento traumático, em pacientes com o diagnóstico de transtorno de estresse pós-traumático (2020)

O canabidiol (CBD), composto da planta Cannabis sativa, tem sido investigado em estudos com animais e humanos. Esses estudos corroboram a hipótese do efeito ansiolítico deste composto, bem como de sua interferência na reconsolidação e extinção de memórias aversivas. O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar se a administração de 300 mg de CBD, antes da rememoração do evento traumático, atenuaria os sintomas ansiosos produzidos por essa rememoração em pessoas diagnosticadas com transtorno de estresse p

Oxidative Stress in Substance Use Disorders: Endogenous and Exogenous Mechanisms of Repair (2022)

Substance use disorders (SUDs) can be defined as patterns of symptoms caused by the abusive consumption of recreational or prescribed substances that an individual continues to use despite their negative effects. Oxidative stress is one of the main pathophysiological processes occasioned by SUDs in different brain areas. Oxidative damage and subsequent deleterious symptoms can happen because of the consumption of psychoactive drugs, both stimulants and depressants. This chapter focuses on SUDs a

The Changing Brain (2020)

The brain remains the most complex organ within the mammalian body with an immense capacity for plasticity and change throughout an individual’s life history. This review examines brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and endocannabinoid (eCB) signalling cross-talk within a variety of neurodevelopmental, genic, and plastic processes that occur in the brain. The action of eCB and BDNF cross-talk in embryonic and adult neurogenesis is a bidirectional dynamic process of high complexity that faci

Recreational Drugs Addiction, Withdrawal and its Impact on the body: A Literature Review (2025)

The use of drugs for recreational purposes has changed dramatically, involving a variety of substances such as opioids, hallucinogens, and cannabinoids. Although these substances are often initially used for recreational purposes, their psychoactive properties can contribute to the development of addiction, withdrawal syndromes, and significant physical and mental health complications. The mechanisms behind addiction, symptoms of withdrawal, and the pathophysiology of frequently abused recreatio

Pain Management in Patients with Hepatorenal Syndrome: A Literature Review (2023)

Introduction: Patients with cirrhosis often present with pain as a common complaint. Pharmacological pain management safety depends on the excretion and metabolism of drugs by the kidney and the liver. The analgesic choice in cirrhotic patients can be tremendously challenging, especially in patients with hepatorenal syndrome, a potentially reversible renal impairment associated with an increased drug accumulation and a high risk of potential toxicity. Choice and dose of medications depend on var

Different molecular targets, one purpose – treatment of depression (2020)

Abstract Although vast scientific progress has been made, the current pharmacotherapy of depression is still not fully effective. In adults, depressive disorders are among the most common diseases in industrialized countries, impact upon all aspects of family and working life and significantly disturb social functioning. Moreover, increasingly, they affect children and teenagers. Depressive disorders have a complex etiology. This includes a number of mechanisms that are not yet fully understood.

Placebo effects in a RCT assessing 30 days of low dose Cannabidiol (CBD) treatment for psychological distress in stressed students at risk for depression (2025)

Cannabidiol (CBD) has been suggested to have a therapeutic role for certain mental health conditions despite a lack of empirical evidence (Khan et al. 2020; Bonaccorso et al. 2019; Kirkland et al. 2022). The aim of the RCT (DRKS00030971) was to assess the effect of a daily sublingual application of a low dose over-the-counter 10% full spectrum CBD-oil over 30 days, compared to a placebo-oil and a no-treatment control group without application of any oil on perceived stress and psychological dist
