nitiate and facilitate a coordinated approach towards providing additional support and help for them to fulfil their educational potential, and subsequent economic and social participation.

The educational potential of many children may not be achieved due to exposure to adversity in childhood. Affected children who come in to contact with services should have relevant information shared between health and care services, and schools to initiate and facilitate a coordinated approach towards providing additional support and help for them to fulfil their educational potential, and subsequent economic and social participation.

There is a lack of new promising therapies to improve the dismal outcomes from cardiac arrest. The objectives of this study were (1) To identify novel pharmacological therapies investigated in experimental animal studies and (2) to identify pharmacological therapies translated from experimental animal studies to clinical trials.

PubMed was searched to first identify relevant experimental cardiac arrest animal models published within the last 20 years. Based on this, a list of interventions was created and a second search was performed to identify clinical trials testing one of these interventions. Data extraction was performed using standardised data extraction forms.

We identified 415 animal studies testing 190 different pharmacological interventions. The most commonly tested interventions were classified as vasopressors, anaesthetics/gases, or interventions aimed at molecular targets. We found 43 clinical trials testing 26 different interventions identified in the animal studies. Of these, 13 trials reported positive findings and 30 trials reported neutral findings with regards to the primary endpoint. No study showed harm of the intervention. Some interventions tested in human clinical trials, had previously been tested in animal studies without a positive effect on outcomes. A large number of animal studies was performed after publication of a clinical trial.

Numerous different pharmacological interventions have been tested in experimental animal models. Despite this only a limited number of these interventions have advanced to clinical trials, however several of the clinical trials tested interventions that were first tested in experimental animal models.

To describe trends in pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest drug administration and to assess temporal associations of the Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) guideline changes with drug usage.

Pediatric patients <18 years old with in-hospital cardiac arrest recorded in the American Heart Association Get With The Guidelines-Resuscitation database between 2002 and 2018 were included. The annual adjusted odds of receiving each intra-arrest medication was determined. The association between changes in the PALS Guidelines and medication use over time was assessed interrupted time series analyses.

A total of 6107 patients were analyzed. The adjusted odds of receiving lidocaine (0.33; 95% CI, 0.18, 0.61; p < 0.001), atropine (0.19; 95% CI 0.12, 0.30; p < 0.001) and bicarbonate (0.54; 95% CI 0.35, 0.86; p = 0.009) were lower in 2018 compared to 2002. For lidocaine, there were no significant changes in the step (-2.1%; 95% CI, -5.9%, 1.6%; p = 0.27) after the 2010 or 2015 (Step -1.5%; 95% CI, -8.0%, ssociated with a modest acute change in the observed use of atropine. Future studies exploring other factors that influence prescribers in pediatric IHCA are needed.Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) mediate fast synaptic transmission in muscles and autonomic ganglia and regulate cytokine and neurotransmitter release in the brain and non-excitable cells. The α7 nAChRs localized in the outer membrane of mitochondria regulate cytochrome c release stimulated by apoptosis-inducing agents. However, the mechanisms through which nAChRs influence mitochondrial permeability remain obscure. Here we put an aim to explore the interaction of nAChRs with voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC1) and pro-apoptotic protein Bax in the course of apoptosis induction. By using molecular modeling in silico, it was shown that both Bax and VDAC1 can bind within the 4th transmembrane portion (M4) of nAChR subunits. Experimentally, α7 nAChR-Bax and α7 nAChR-VDAC1 complexes were identified by sandwich ELISA in mitochondria isolated from astrocytoma U373 cells. Stimulating apoptosis of U373 cells by H2O2 disrupted α7-VDAC complexes and favored formation of α7-Bax complexes accompanied by cytochrome c release from mitochondria. α7-selective agonist PNU282987 or type 2 positive allosteric modulator PNU120596 disrupted α7-Bax and returned α7 nAChR to complex with VDAC1 resulting in attenuation of cytochrome c release. Lipoxygenase inhibitor It is concluded that mitochondrial nAChRs regulate apoptosis-induced mitochondrial channel formation by modulating the interplay of apoptosis-related proteins in mitochondria outer membrane.Mouse models that replicate facets of human neurological diseases are often used at the pre-clinical stage to better understand the underlying mechanisms of a disease and test the target engagement of potential therapeutic interventions. We recently characterized a mouse model of childhood-onset parkinsonism-dystonia, a disease caused by a homozygous loss-of-function mutation in the SLC39A14 gene. The disease manifests itself phenotypically by impairments in locomotor behaviour and postural abnormalities. Our initial characterization of the model revealed that the Slc39a14-/- mice showed altered Mn homeostasis and compromised locomotor performance in vertical pole-descending, horizontal beam-traversing, and rotarod tests (Jenkitkasemwong et al., 2018). However, some of the mice also displayed torticollis and Straub tail. In this study, we investigated whether these postural abnormalities affected the performance in the above motility tests and consequently, biased and compromised the external validity of reported abnormal locomotor profiles.
