Original Source: Dopamine Versus Norepinephrine for the Treatment of Vasopressor Dependent Septic Shock
We are performing a prospective, randomized, controlled trial of dopamine versus norepinephrine for septic shock. The trial will enroll patients with suspected or documented site of infection and having 2 out of the three SIRS criteria. Patients will also be receiving standard of care, early-goal directed therapy including but not limited to fluid resuscitation, appropriate and early antibiotics, source control and evaluation for drotrecogin alpha where deemed appropriate, whil...

Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition, affecting one person in every 500, 95% of which are over 40. It is caused by degeneration of more than 70% of the substantia nigra, which dep...
von Willebrand disease (vWD) is the most common hereditary coagulation abnormality described in humans, although it can also be acquired as a result of other medical conditions. It arises from a qua...
Huntington's disease is a hereditary disease caused by a defect in a single gene on Chromosome 4 that is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. The defect causes a part of DNA, called a CAG...
Selective monoamine oxidase type B MAOB inhibitors
The clinical benefit of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) inhibitors is thought to arise from an ability of these medications to enhance the level of dopamine by decreasing the catabolism. Additional...

Vasopressin: a novel target for the prevention and retardation of kidney disease?
Experimental, epidemiological and clinical studies have demonstrated that vasopressin contributes to the progression of chronic kidney disease by imposing an increased burden on diseased nephrons, and...

Identification of a dopamine pathway that regulates sleep and arousal in Drosophila
Dopamine signaling is known to influence sleep and arousal in Drosophila. Here the authors identify the circuitry underlying the effect of dopamine on arousal, which involves D1 dopamine receptors in...
A group of Spanish researchers has discovered a new function of the neurotransmitter dopamine in controlling sleep regulation. Dopamine acts in the pineal gland, which is central to dictating the 'cir...

(Max-Planck-Gesellschaft) In the insect brain, dopamine-releasing nerve cells are crucial to the formation of both punished and rewarded memories.
Dopamine not about pleasure (anymore)
(Medical Xpress)—To John Salamone, professor of psychology and longtime researcher of the brain chemical dopamine, scientific research can be very slow-moving.
Scientists at the University of Houston (UH) have discovered what may possibly be a key ingredient in the fight against Parkinson's disease. Affecting more than 500,000 people in the U.S., Parkinson's...

Influences of hydrocortisone therapy on arginine vasopressin plasma levels in septic shock.
Concomitant hydrocortisone and arginine vasopressin therapy increases arginine vasopressin plasma levels and may improve survival in septic shock. The objective of this post hoc analysis of a prospect...
