NiMODipine

Summary: Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening neurological illness: it is bleeding in the brain after a bulging blood vessel (a brain aneurysm) ruptures. Although SAH accounts for only 5% of all strokes, it often happens in middle age and it puts a significant burden on many patients during their most productive years. Complications following SAH are common, and they can cause maj...

Summary: An observational study of patients with emerging or established severe cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid haemorrhage, employing multimodal neuromonitoring.

Summary: The role of perioperative IV administration of nimodipine, an L-type calcium channel antagonist which is capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier, on peri-operative opioid and anesthetics requirements, pain intensity, opioid-related side effects and early postoperative bowel mobility in patients undergoing surgical treatment for bowel cancer with open radical colectomy remains scarcely explored...

Summary: Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) generated by the use of 5G technology influence certain sleep characteristics, especially in individuals carrying a specific genetic variant of a protein in the brain that regulates the activity of nerve cells. This protein is a voltage-gated calcium channel called CaV1.2 and could be involved in the effects of 5G technology on sleep. The calcium channel CaV1.2 can be...

Summary: The primary goal of this proposal is to validate a novel genomic and microbiome predictive model that may be used to assess a person's risk of developing opioid use disorder (OUD). The following will be tested: (1) MODUS (Measuring risk for Opioid use Disorder Using SNPs), which is a genomic panel consisting of a set number of proven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) that utilizes machine lear...
