TL;DR: The presence of pervasive α-synuclein deposition in the gastrointestinal tract strongly implicates this system in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease and holds potential for early disease detection and development of neuroprotective approaches.
Abstract: Gastrointestinal dysfunction is a frequent and occasionally dominating symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). Features of gastrointestinal dysfunction include disordered control of saliva, dysphagia, gastroparesis, constipation in the sense of decreased bowel movement frequency, and defecatory dysfunction necessitating increased straining and resulting in incomplete evacuation. Excess saliva accumulates in the mouth because of decreased swallowing frequency. Dysphagia develops in approximately 50% of patients and may be a reflection of both central nervous system and enteric nervous system derangement. Gastroparesis may produce a variety of symptoms, including nausea, and also may be responsible for some of the motor fluctuations seen with levodopa therapy. Bowel dysfunction in PD may be the result of both delayed colon transit and impaired anorectal muscle coordination.

TL;DR: The molecular underpinnings of cerebellar development are being established through the identification of naturally occurring mutated genes and the knockout of other genes, and the process of development will ultimately be understood in terms of cellular interactions and the roles that each cell type plays in the assembly of Cerebellar structure.

TL;DR: The results reconcile previous in vitro and in vivostudies by showing that D1 dopamine receptor activation can either inhibit or enhance evoked activity, depending on the level of membrane depolarization.
Abstract: Most in vitro studies of D1 dopaminergic modulation of excitability in neostriatal medium spiny neurons have revealed inhibitory effects. Yet studies made in more intact preparations have shown that D1 receptors can enhance or inhibit the responses to excitatory stimuli. One explanation for these differences is that the effects of D1 receptors on excitability are dependent on changes in the membrane potential occurring in response to cortical inputs that are seen only in intact preparations. To test this hypothesis, we obtained voltage recordings from medium spiny neurons in slices and examined the impact of D1 receptor stimulation at depolarized and hyperpolarized membrane potentials. As previously reported, evoked discharge was inhibited by D1 agonists when holding at negative membrane potentials (approximately -80 mV). However, at more depolarized potentials (approximately -55 mV), D1 agonists enhanced evoked activity. At these potentials, D1 agonists or cAMP analogs prolonged or induced slow subthreshold depolarizations and increased the duration of barium- or TEA-induced Ca2+-dependent action potentials. Both effects were blocked by L-type Ca2+ channel antagonists (nicardipine, calciseptine) and were occluded by the L-type channel agonist BayK 8644-arguing that the D1 receptor-mediated effects on evoked activity at depolarized membrane potential were mediated by enhancement of L-type Ca2+ currents. These results reconcile previous in vitro and in vivo studies by showing that D1 dopamine receptor activation can either inhibit or enhance evoked activity, depending on the level of membrane depolarization.

TL;DR: In injured patients at risk for hemorrhagic shock, the prehospital administration of thawed plasma was safe and resulted in lower 30‐day mortality and a lower median prothrombin‐time ratio than standard‐care resuscitation.
Abstract: Background After a person has been injured, prehospital administration of plasma in addition to the initiation of standard resuscitation procedures in the prehospital environment may reduc

TL;DR: The NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines) for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) address all aspects of management for NSCLC as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines) for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) address all aspects of management for NSCLC. These NCCN Guidelines Insights focus on recent updates to the NCCN Guidelines regarding targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and their respective biomarkers.
