Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues for premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

BACKGROUND: Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a psychological and somatic disorder affecting 20% to 30% of women of reproductive age. PMS results from ovulation: symptoms recur during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and remit by the end of menstruation. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a severe form of PMS experienced by three to eight per cent of menstruating women. In this review, we use the term PMS to cover all core premenstrual disorders, including PMDD. The symptoms of all types are severe enough to affect daily functioning, interfering with work, school performance or inte…

The Expert Consensus Guideline Series. Treatment of depression in women.

OBJECTIVES: Women constitute two-thirds of patients suffering from common depressive disorders. The treatment of depression in women is therefore a substantial public health concern. High-quality, empirical data on depressive disorders specific to women are limited. As a result, there are no comprehensive evidence-based practice guidelines on the best treatment approaches for these illnesses. We conducted a consensus survey of expert opinion on the treatment of 4 depressive conditions specific to women: premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), depression in pregnancy, postpartum depression in a…

International Active Surveillance Study of Women Taking Oral Contraceptives (INAS-OC Study).

BACKGROUND: A 24-day regimen of contraceptive doses of drospirenone and ethinylestradiol (DRSP/EE 24d) was recently launched. This regimen has properties which may be beneficial for certain user populations (e.g., women suffering from premenstrual dysphoric disorder or acne). However, it is unknown whether this extended regimen has an impact on the cardiovascular risk associated with the use of oral contraceptives (OCs). The INternational Active Surveillance study of women taking Oral Contraceptives (INAS-OC) is designed to investigate the short- and long-term safety of the new regimen in a po…

Sex steroid induced negative mood may be explained by the paradoxical effect mediated by GABAA modulators.

UNLABELLED: Certain women experience negative mood symptoms as a result of progesterone during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, prog … en experience adverse mood during progesterone or GABA(A) receptor modulator treatments. Women with premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) have severe luteal phase related symptoms; in this phase, they show changes in GABA(A) receptor sensitivity and GABA concentrations that are related to the severity of the condition. These findings suggest that negative mood symptoms in women …

The 2024 Saudi Pharmacotherapy Didactic Curriculum Toolkit: A Modified Delphi Study.

BACKGROUND: Several pharmacy schools in Saudi Arabia (S.A.) refer to the American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) pharmacotherapy toolkit in developing their pharmacotherapy curriculum. However, the ACCP toolkit does not specifically address the healthcare needs of the Saudi population. A tailored pharmacotherapy curriculum that offers graduates the essential competencies to better serve the nation's needs is warranted. This study aims to develop a population-centered didactic pharmacotherapy toolkit for the Saudi population to assist pharmacy schools in designing pharmacotherapy course co

Antidepressant Drug Sertraline against Human Cancer Cells.

The use of FDA-approved drugs for new indications represents a faster and more economical way to find novel therapeutic agents for cancer therapy, compared to the development of new drugs. Repurposing drugs is advantageous in a pharmacological context since these drugs already have extensive data related to their pharmacokinetics, facilitating their approval process for different diseases. Several studies have reported the promising anticancer effects of sertraline, both alone and combined, in different types of cancer cell lines. Here, we performed a literature review on the anticancer potent

Occult endocrine disorders newly diagnosed in patients with post-COVID-19 symptoms.

Determination of long COVID requires ruling out alternative diagnoses, but there has been no report on the features of alternative diagnoses. This study was a single-center retrospective study of outpatients who visited our clinic between February 2021 and June 2023 that was carried out to determine the characteristics of alternative diagnoses in patients with post-COVID-19 symptoms. In a total of 731 patients, 50 patients (6.8%) were newly diagnosed with 52 diseases requiring medical intervention, and 16 (32%) of those 50 patients (2.2% of the total) were considered to have priority for treat

Симптомы расстройства питания при множественном склерозе: взаимосвязь между нейротикой, дисфункцией тела и самоэстеемом.

Предыстория/цели: Исследования нарушений питания (РУ) у лиц с множественным склерозом (МС) являются ограниченными. В популяциях эпидемиологов нейротицизм связан с симптомами эдактики из-за более низкой самооценки и большего недовольства телом, но эти отношения остаются неизученными в MS. Цель этого исследования заключалась в изучении вопроса о том, являются ли самоуважение и неудовлетворенность тела посредником в установлении связи между нейротикализмом и симптомами ЭД у отдельных лиц, имеющих MS. Методы: Нынешняя выборка состояла из 275 участников, которые сообщили о подтвержденном неврологом

Insight and Recommendations for Fragile X-Premutation-Associated Conditions from the Fifth International Conference on FMR1 Premutation.

The premutation of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene is characterized by an expansion of the CGG trinucleotide repeats (55 to 200 CGGs) in the 5' untranslated region and increased levels of FMR1 mRNA. Molecular mechanisms leading to fragile X-premutation-associated conditions (FXPAC) include cotranscriptional R-loop formations, FMR1 mRNA toxicity through both RNA gelation into nuclear foci and sequestration of various CGG-repeat-binding proteins, and the repeat-associated non-AUG (RAN)-initiated translation of potentially toxic proteins. Such molecular mechanisms contribu

Unlocking Novel Therapeutic Potential of Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers.

Pharmaceutical companies keep producing novel drugs and drug treatments for improving the life of every sick individual, most often following a pattern; a specific drug for a specific condition. Evidence suggests that different medications can have a positive effect on different pathological conditions. The full potential of existing therapies can be revealed through drug repurposing-also referred to as drug repositioning, reprofiling, or re-tasking-which involves identifying new therapeutic uses for approved or investigational drugs beyond their original indications. One significant target in

Историческое развитие иммуноэндокринных концепций психических расстройств и их терапии.

Отношения между центральной нервной, иммунной и эндокринной системами являются предметом психиатрических исследований, особенно в области депрессии и шизофрения. У поля длинные предтечи. Наблюдаемые явления, связанные с этими отношениями, восходят к неолитической эпохе. Теории иммуноэндокринной системы в самом широком смысле записаны в древности. В 19th Крепелин и Вагнер-Джаурег сообщили о первых клинических наблюдениях у пациентов психиатрических учреждений. Von Bestow, Эддисон и Кушинг описали психические симптомы у пациентов, страдающих эндокринными заболеваниями. :: 20th откровение века с

The Persistence of Stigma and Other Challenges Experienced by Medical Cannabis Users: A Thematic Synthesis of Qualitative Studies.

BackgroundThe legislation, practices, and guidance shaping patient and professional access to medical cannabis (MC) for managing chronic pain and other conditions vary widely across jurisdictions. Despite promising evidence of effectiveness, challenges persist for those trying to access or prescribe MC. Little is known about how patients navigate these complex environments. We aimed to understand the evidence related to personal lived experiences associated with using MC for chronic pain and other conditions in negotiating these challenges.SummaryWe used a framework by Thomas and Harden for co

Nuclear receptors in health and disease: signaling pathways, biological functions and pharmaceutical interventions.

Nuclear receptors (NRs) are a large family of ligand-dependent transcription factors that regulate the expression of a wide range of target genes in response to endogenous and exogenous ligands, including steroid hormones, thyroid hormone, vitamin D, retinoic acid, fatty acids, and oxidative steroids. Upon ligand binding, nuclear receptors form dimer complexes with transcriptional cofactors, which interact with specific DNA sequences in the promoter or enhancer regions of target genes to modulate gene expression. This process plays a crucial role in many physiological processes such as reprodu
