It is critical to consider, if needed, in opioid-dependent patients who start with psychosis after the opioid withdrawal the possible replacement or reintroduction of opioids to prevent further deterioration in the patient's mental status.

This study encompasses a comprehensive description of the literature concerning the possible not well-studied outcome of opioid withdrawal. There are some reports of temporal association between withdrawal and psychotic symptoms that improved after the reintroduction of the opioid; it could be taken into consideration in the clinical practice.

High-altitude pulmonary hypertension (HAPH) is one of the diseases with higher occurrence among people living in plateau areas. The possible mechanism of angiotensin II receptor 1 inhibitor irbesartan in improving HAPH was explored from the perspective of intestinal bacterial flora in this study.

A HAPH rat model was established under simulated high-altitude hypobaric hypoxia. The levels of oxidative stress and vasoactive substances were detected after irbesartan intervention, and intestinal flora genomics analysis was performed.

High-altitude hypobaric hypoxia-induced the increase in pulmonary artery pressure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction in HAPH model rats, but its effects were alleviated by irbesartan. Changes in the levels of oxidative damage in intestinal tissues, such as the increase in superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase in intestinal tissues and the decrease in malondialdehyde content, were also reversed by irbesartan. The serum levels of angiotensin II, endothelin 1, inteased abundance of Prevotellaceae and Desulfovibrionaceae in the intestines.

Irbesartan can alleviate pulmonary artery pressure and left ventricular relaxation in HAPH model rats, reduce the oxidative damage caused by high-altitude hypoxia, and lower the release of vasoconstrictor factors and inflammatory mediators. These effects might be caused by the increased abundance of Lactobacillaceae and Lachnospiraceae and the decreased abundance of Prevotellaceae and Desulfovibrionaceae in the intestines.

The aim of this study was to assess the synergistic effect of non-adherence to the Mediterranean Diet (MD) and lifestyle habits on the occurrence of breast cancer (BC).

A case-control study was carried out from September 2018 to February 2019 at the Teaching Hospital "Umberto I" in Rome. A Food Frequency Questionnaire was used for assessing the level of adherence to MD, the IPAQ Questionnaire to measure physical activity, and AUDIT-C to estimate alcohol consumption. Quarfloxin The possible interaction between risk factors was tested using the synergism index.

A total of 94 cases and 88 controls were enrolled (median age 55.8 for cases and 57.9 for controls). The MD Score over 6 was associated with low odds of having breast cancer (OR = 0.29; 95% CI 0.12-0.69). There is a clear indication for the additivity and synergism between non-adherence to MD and many risk factors on the occurrence of BC current smoker (S = 2.02; 95% CI 0.62-8.07), physical inactivity (S = 2.14; 95% CI 0.71 2-8.28) and alcohol consumption (S = 3.02; 95% CI 0.91-12.95).

Primary prevention of BC can benefit from intervention targeting nutritional and lifestyle factors that act synergistically.

Aim of the study was to evaluate efficacy and efficiency of 180-watt Green-Light XPS (GL-XPS) laser photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) in patients under 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors (5ARI) treatment.

A consecutive series of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic enlargement treated by PVP with the GL-XPS were enrolled. Patients were divided in two groups according to the chronic use (>6 months) of 5ARI. These two groups were compared on lasing density (kilojoules per prostate volume), vaporization efficiency (prostate volume per lasing time), vaporization power (kilojoules per lasing time), Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) reduction from baseline, symptom score change from baseline and uroflowmetry parameters improvement. Follow-up was performed at 3, 6 and 12 months with International Prostate Symptom Score, Uroflowmetry parameters and PSA.

Overall 193 patients were enrolled. Out of them 87/193 (45%) were on 5ARI treatment. No significant differences were rewatt Green-Light XPS laser system.

Cataract which is defined as opacification of eye lens forms approximately 40% of total blindness causes all through the world. Age is the biggest risk factor for cataracts and oxidative stress is known to be one of the most important factors causing cataract formation. Age-related nuclear cataract (ARN) is associated with a loss of glutathione in the center of the lens. Taurine is an important antioxidant in lens tissue. Although, there is a high amount of taurine in lenses in early life, its concentration declines with age. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of supplemental taurine in lens tissues in an in vivo oxidative stress model which is induced by glutathione depletion to mimic ARN.

Glutathione depletion was induced in rabbits subcutaneously with l-Buthionine -(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO)- a glutathione inhibitor and the rabbits were treated with taurine. Total GSH, reduced GSH, GSH/GSSG ratio and MDA levels were measured.

BSO lowered the reduced GSH and total GSH levels and GSH/GSSG ratio. Taurine reversed these effects. On the other hand, BSO enhanced MDA level which is normalized by taurine.

These findings suggest that glutathione depletion with BSO may be a useful model to mimic ARN and dietary intake of taurine, may have an important role in decelerating the process of cataract formation.
