Restraint stress effects on glutamate signaling protein levels in the rats’ frontal cortex: Does β1 adrenoceptor activity matter? by Agnieszka Zelek-Molik, Anna Gądek-Michalska, Michał Wilczkowski, Adam Bielawski, Katarzyna Maziarz, Grzegorz Kreiner, Irena Nalepa

“…The impact of RS and BET on the expression of p(Y530)/t Fyn and p (S133)/t CREB in the mPFC was measured via Western blotting.Results and DiscussionThe first part of the study demonstrated a decreased level of glutamate receptors in rats exposed to 14 days of RS, following an initial increase observed after 7 days of RS. Results from the second part revealed that chronic RS reduced body weight, impaired recognition memory in the NOR test, augmented blood levels of ACTH, and increased the expression of p(Y530) Fyn in the mPFC. …”

Risk factors for thromboembolic and bleeding events in anticoagulated patients with atrial fibrillation: the prospective, multicentre observational PREvention oF thromboembolic eve... by Raffaele De Caterina, Kurt Huber, Richard Schilling, Miklos Rohla, Thomas W Weiss, Ladislav Pecen, Giuseppe Patti, Jolanta M Siller-Matula, Renate B Schnabel, Dipak Kotecha, Markus Lucerna, Paulus Kirchhof

“…For each single point decrease on a modifiable bleeding risk scale we observed a 30% lower risk for major bleeding events (OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.76, p<0.01) and a 28% lower rate of thromboembolic events (OR 0.72, 95% CI 0.66 to 0.82, p<0.01).Conclusion Attending to modifiable risk factors is an important treatment target in anticoagulated AF patients to reduce thromboembolic and bleeding events. Initiation of anticoagulation in those at risk of stroke should not be prevented by elevated bleeding risk scores.…”
