Background: Thymic carcinoid is a rare highly differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasm, which can manifest as endocrine disorders caused by ectopic adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) syndrome. Although clinical manifestations such as hypertension and hypokalemia are common manifestations in patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome, clinicians should also be aware of the mental and behavioral abnormalities that may initially appear in patients. It is extremely rare for patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome caused by thymic carcinoid to concurrently exhibit abnormal mental behavior, especially as the initial clinical manifestation of the tumor...

A 59-year-old man presented with non-fluent aphasia and behavioral variant frontotemporal lobe degeneration (FTD), volunteered unusual visual symptoms that were best described as illusory visual spread (the image spreading over a larger area). This type of visual hyperfunction, related to the palinopsia syndromes, has not been reported in association with FTD. The syndrome may be best understood in terms of a visual variant of the environmental dependency syndrome, akin to the verbal variant of forced hyperphasia syndrome...

Sleep disturbances are associated with various metabolic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. We had previously established a mouse model of a psychophysiological stress-induced chronic sleep disorder (CSD) characterized by disrupted circadian rhythms of wheel-running activity, core body temperature, and sleep-wake cycles. To evaluate the underlying mechanisms of metabolic disorders induced by CSD, we created mice with CSD for six weeks and fed them with a high-fat diet. Glucose intolerance with hyperglycemia resulted, although plasma insulin levels and body weight increases were identical between control and CSD mice...

Since the discovery of endogenous nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ) peptide and N/OFQ peptide (NOP) receptor [or opioid-receptor-like-1 (ORL1) receptor], the structures, distribution, and pharmacology have been reported in detail. N/OFQ and NOP receptor are located in the corticolimbic regions that are involved in the integration of the emotional activity, and located in the spinal cord, the peripheral nervous systems or other peripheral tissues that are related to pain as well as urinary signal transmissions, with a pattern distinct from that of classical opioid peptides and their receptors in rodents or primates...

REVIEW

The hypothalamic neuropeptides modulate physiological activity via G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Galanin-like peptide (GALP) is a 60 amino acid neuropeptide that was originally isolated from porcine hypothalamus using a binding assay for galanin receptors, which belong to the GPCR family. GALP is mainly produced in neurons in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus. GALP-containing neurons form neuronal networks with several other types of peptide-containing neurons and then regulate feeding behavior and energy metabolism...

OBJECTIVE: To explore the application of propofol combined with midazolam intravenous anesthesia in pediatric upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. METHODS: A total of 497 ASA I~II patients who received sedative upper gastrointestinal endoscopy were assigned to a children group (2-14 years) and an adults group (18-65 years).The 2 groups were treated with midazolam (0.02-0.03 mg/kg, iv) and propofol(0.6-0.7 mg/s,iv) with an interval of 3-5 minutes. Enterscopy was inserted at light sleep, relaxing muscles, and disappearance of eyelash relaxation...

To reduce the toxic effects, related clinical problems and complications such as bleeding disorders associated with systemic anticoagulation, it has been hypothesized that by coating the surfaces of medical devices, such as stents, bypass grafts, extracorporeal circuits, guide wires and catheters, there will be a significant reduction in the requirement for systemic anticoagulation or, ideally, it will no longer be necessary. However, current coating processes, even covalent ones, still result in leaching followed by reduced functionality...

This study investigated whether co-administration of dopamine D1 and D2 agonists might additively inhibit the feeding effect and whether this effect was mediated by the action on hypothalamic neuropeptide Y (NPY). The D1 agonist SKF 38393 (SKF) and D2 agonists apomorphine (APO) or quinpirole (QNP) were administered, alone or in combination, to examine this possibility. In single administration, decreases of daily food intake were observed only in rats treated twice a day with a higher dose of SKF, APO or QNP...

Loss of paternal gene expression at the imprinted domain on proximal human chromosome 15 causes Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), a complex multiple-anomaly disorder involving variable mental retardation, hyperphasia leading to obesity and infantile hypotonia with failure to thrive. Although numerous paternally expressed transcripts have been identified that reside in the candidate region, the individual contributions to the development of PWS have not been firmly established. Recent studies of mouse models carrying a cytogenetic deletion suggest that paternal deficiency of the SNRPN-IPW interval is critical for perinatal lethality of potential relevance to PWS...

A distinctive, language related fragment of the environmental dependency syndrome is described: compulsive, involuntary, environmentally dependent speaking. Because this syndrome represents the observe of aphasia, it is named forced hyperphasia. An 84 year old woman with acute left frontal infarction was admitted to hospital with gait disturbance, forced grasp reflex, and striking imitation behaviour. After 2 weeks her imitation behaviour disappeared, but an equally striking new behaviour emerged. In the presence of others she would call out the names of objects in the room, and also call out the actions and gestures of people in the room, even though she was not asked to do so, and even though she was asked to stop...

The results of measurement of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OH-P) in 125 samples of amniotic fluid (AF) from early amniocenteses are presented. The fetuses from all pregnancies studied were unaffected by congenital adrenal hyperphasia caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The AF 17-OH-P level increases slightly but significantly between the 11th and 15th week of gestation, with a maximum in the 14th week. There is no difference between the values measured in male and female fetuses. The AF 17-OH-P levels from the early gestation were compared with those from the 16th-22nd week of pregnancy (published previously)...

PURPOSE: To assess the value of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for determining the histologic type of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Unenhanced T1- and T2-weighted images and gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted images were obtained in the transverse plane at 1.5 T in 33 patients with BPH. Hyperphasia was classified as stromal or nonstromal. Nonstromal hyperplasia was diagnosed if (a) the nodules in the inner gland had heterogeneous high signal intensity on T2-weighted images and peripheral enhancement on gadolinium-enhanced images, (b) a surgical capsule was present, or (c) the inner gland volume to total volume ratio was greater than 0...

Although the effects of amphetamine on food consumption and body weight in nondeprived animals are of interest for theoretical and clinical reasons, there are only a few studies on this topic in the literature. In Experiment 1, independent groups of nondeprived rats were given daily injections of 0, 1, 2, 5, or 10 mg/kg d-amphetamine sulfate shortly after light onset for 30 days. While drug treatment did not affect food consumption, all amphetamine-treated groups lost weight over the initial 12 days and then, over the final 18 days of treatment, gained weight at the same rate as controls...
