Development of an UHPLC-MS/MS method to determine cutaneous biodistribution of cannabidiol after topical application of cannabidiol gel assisted by iontophoresis
This study aimed to establish a method for the determination of cannabidiol in skin samples by UHPLC-MS/MS. A BEH C18 (50.0 × 2.1 mm, 2.5 μm) column was used; the mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid (70:30, v/v), the flow rate was 0.2 μl·min-1 and the column temperature was 30°C. Positive-ion mode with multiple reaction monitoring detection was used to quantify cannabidiol (m/z 315.1 → 193.1) while diphenhydramine (m/z 256.3 → 167.08) served as the internal standard. Good linearity was shown in the range of 1-200 ng·ml-1 for cannabidiol with correlation coefficients of >0.999. The LLOQ was ...

A Case Report of Venezuelan Suntiger Tarantula (Psalmopoeus Irminia) Envenomation and Review of Tarantula Exposures
J Emerg Med. 2023 Jun 10:S0736-4679(23)00320-7. doi: 10.1016/j.jemermed.2023.05.022. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Tarantula envenomations are encountered infrequently but may increase with increased exotic animal ownership. This case report presents the first documented toxicity from a Venezuelan suntiger tarantula (VST), Psalmopoeus irminia, and provides a general framework for approaching patients with tarantula exposures.CASE REPORT: A 35-year-old man presented to an emergency department 4 h after experiencing a bite from his pet VST. He developed erythema, pain, and edema to the bite site on the left thena...

The impact of Verapamil for radial access in diagnostic cerebrovascular angiograms: A retrospective case-control study
CONCLUSION: Verapamil in the "cocktail" for wrist access diagnostic cerebral angiograms was associated with periprocedural hives, but not associated with a significant reduction in spasm compared to the non-Verapamil group. Our findings suggest that the administration of prophylactic Verapamil for these procedures may not be necessary.PMID:37574785 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231193932 (Source: Interventional Neuroradiology)

Effects of Blindness on Sleep/Wakefulness States in Mice
Biol Pharm Bull. 2023;46(8):1152-1155. doi: 10.1248/bpb.b23-00210.ABSTRACTTo examine the effects of blindness on sleep/wakefulness states, we compared locomotor activity and delayed recovery from isoflurane anesthesia induced by hypnotics during light and dark periods in sighted CBA/N and blind CBA/J mice. Locomotor activity around the switch from the dark to light period significantly differed in both mice. Delayed recovery induced by brotizolam was attenuated in both periods in CBA/J mice. In addition, the period specificity of delayed recovery caused by suvorexant or diphenhydramine in CBA/N mice was abolished in CBA/J ...
