Background

Percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy (PETD) is an effective method for treating lumbar disc herniation, and is typically performed under local anesthesia. However, inadequate analgesia during the procedure remains a concern, prompting the search for a medication that can provide optimal pain control with minimal impact on the respiratory and circulatory systems.

Objectives

The aim of this study was to observe the effects of different doses of esketamine combined with dexmedetomidine on reducing visual analog scale (VAS) scores during surgical interventions.

Methods

One hundred two patients who underwent PETD were randomly divided into a control group (group C: normal saline + dexmedetomidine), an E1 group (0.1 mg kg−1 esketamine + dexmedetomidine), and an E2 group (0.2 mg kg−1 esketamine + dexmedetomidine). The primary outcome was the maximum visual analogue scale (VAS) (score: 0 = no pain and 10 = worst pain) at six time points. The secondary outcomes included the Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale (OAA/S) score and mean arterial pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), and oxygen saturation (SpO2) at 11 time points. The incidence of adverse reactions during and 24 h after the operation and patient satisfaction with the anesthesia were also recorded.

Results

Compared with those in group C, the VAS scores of patients in groups E1 and E2 were lower at T6, T7, and T9 (P < 0.05). From T4 to T10, the OAA/S scores of the E1 and E2 groups were both lower than those of group C (P < 0.05), and at the T4T6 time points, the OAA/S score of the E2 group was lower than that of group E1 (P < 0.05). At T4 and T5, the HR and BP of patients in groups E1 and E2 were greater than those in group C (P < 0.05). Compared with those in group C, the incidences of intraoperative illusion, floating sensation, postoperative dizziness, and hyperalgesia in groups E1 and E2 were significantly greater (P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in patient RR, SpO2, or postoperative satisfaction with anesthesia among the three groups (P > 0.05).

Conclusion

The combination of esketamine and dexmedetomidine can reduce VAS scores during certain stages of this type of surgery; it has minimal impact on respiration and circulation. However, this approach is associated with increased incidences of postoperative dizziness and psychiatric side effects, which may also affect patients’ compliance with surgical instructions from medical staff.

背景经皮内窥镜经椎间孔椎间盘切除术(PETD)是治疗腰椎间盘突出症的有效方法,通常在局部麻醉下进行。本研究旨在观察不同剂量的艾司卡胺联合右美托咪定对降低手术干预期间视觉模拟量表(VAS)评分的影响。方法 将 120 名接受 PETD 的患者随机分为对照组(C 组:生理盐水 + 右美托咪定)、E1 组(0.1 mg kg-1 esketamine + 右美托咪定)和 E2 组(0.2 mg kg-1 esketamine + 右美托咪定)。主要结果是六个时间点的最大视觉模拟量表(VAS)(评分:0 = 无痛,10 = 疼痛最严重)。次要结果包括警觉性评估/镇静量表(OAA/S)评分和 11 个时间点的平均动脉压(BP)、心率(HR)、呼吸频率(RR)和血氧饱和度(SpO2)。结果与 C 组相比,E1 和 E2 组患者在 T6、T7 和 T9 的 VAS 评分较低(P <0.05)。从 T4 到 T10,E1 组和 E2 组的 OAA/S 评分均低于 C 组(P <;0.05),在 T4-T6 时间点,E2 组的 OAA/S 评分低于 E1 组(P <;0.05)。在 T4 和 T5,E1 组和 E2 组患者的心率和血压均高于 C 组(P < 0.05)。与 C 组相比,E1 组和 E2 组患者术中错觉、漂浮感、术后头晕和痛觉过敏的发生率明显更高(P < 0.01)。三组患者的 RR、SpO2 或术后麻醉满意度无明显差异(P >0.05)。结论埃斯氯胺酮和右美托咪定联合使用可降低此类手术某些阶段的 VAS 评分;对呼吸和循环的影响最小。然而,这种方法会增加术后头晕和精神副作用的发生率,也可能影响患者对医务人员手术指令的依从性。右美托咪定联合艾司氯胺酮的患者满意度并不比单独使用右美托咪定高。试验注册http://www.chictr.org.cn。标识符:ChiCTR2300068206。注册日期:2023年2月10日。

The Gut Microbiota in Parkinson Disease: Interactions with Drugs and Potential for Therapeutic Applications 帕金森病中的肠道微生物群:与药物的相互作用及治疗应用潜力
IF 6 2区 医学 Q1 Medicine Pub Date : 2024-04-03 DOI: 10.1007/s40263-024-01073-4

Abstract

The concept of a ‘microbiota-gut-brain axis’ has recently emerged as an important player in the pathophysiology of Parkinson disease (PD), not least because of the reciprocal interaction between gut bacteria and medications. The gut microbiota can influence levodopa kinetics, and conversely, drugs administered for PD can influence gut microbiota composition. Through a two-step enzymatic pathway, gut microbes can decarboxylate levodopa to dopamine in the small intestine and then dehydroxylate it to m-tyramine, thus reducing availability. Inhibition of bacterial decarboxylation pathways could therefore represent a strategy to increase levodopa absorption. Other bacterial perturbations common in PD, such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and Helicobacter pylori infection, can also modulate levodopa metabolism, and eradication therapies may improve levodopa absorption. Interventions targeting the gut microbiota offer a novel opportunity to manage disabling motor complications and dopa-unresponsive symptoms. Mediterranean diet-induced changes in gut microbiota composition might improve a range of non-motor symptoms. Prebiotics can increase levels of short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria and decrease pro-inflammatory species, with positive effects on clinical symptoms and levodopa kinetics. Different formulations of probiotics showed beneficial outcomes on constipation, with some of them improving dopamine levels; however, the most effective dosage and duration and long-term effects of these treatments remain unknown. Data from faecal microbiota transplantation studies are preliminary, but show encouraging trends towards improvement in both motor and non-motor outcomes.

This article summarises the most up-to-date knowledge in pharmacomicrobiomics in PD, and discusses how the manipulation of gut microbiota represents a potential new therapeutic avenue for PD.

摘要 "微生物群-肠道-大脑轴 "的概念最近已成为帕金森病(PD)病理生理学中的一个重要角色,这主要是因为肠道细菌与药物之间存在相互影响。肠道微生物群会影响左旋多巴的动力学,反之,治疗帕金森病的药物也会影响肠道微生物群的组成。通过两步酶解途径,肠道微生物可在小肠中将左旋多巴脱羧为多巴胺,然后脱羟基为间苯二胺,从而降低左旋多巴的可用性。因此,抑制细菌脱羧途径可能是增加左旋多巴吸收的一种策略。其他常见于帕金森病的细菌紊乱,如小肠细菌过度生长和幽门螺旋杆菌感染,也会调节左旋多巴的代谢,根除细菌的疗法可能会改善左旋多巴的吸收。针对肠道微生物群的干预措施为控制致残性运动并发症和多巴无反应症状提供了一个新的机会。由地中海饮食引起的肠道微生物群组成的变化可能会改善一系列非运动症状。益生元能提高短链脂肪酸细菌的水平,减少促炎菌,从而对临床症状和左旋多巴动力学产生积极影响。不同配方的益生菌对便秘都有益处,其中一些还能改善多巴胺水平;然而,这些治疗方法的最有效剂量、持续时间和长期效果仍不得而知。粪便微生物群移植研究的数据尚属初步,但显示出运动和非运动结果均有令人鼓舞的改善趋势。本文总结了帕金森病药理微生物组学的最新知识,并讨论了操纵肠道微生物群如何成为治疗帕金森病的潜在新途径。

Introduction: The administration of opioids can be followed by enduring neuroplastic changes in the peripheral and central nervous systems. This remodeling can lead to opioid-induced hyperalgesia, causing an increased sensitivity to painful stimuli. The description of opioid-induced changes in the somatosensory system has seldom been described in the setting of opioid agonist therapy in the treatment of opioid use disorders, and the few existing reports provide no guidance with respect to the effect of varied doses or substances.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to assess alterations of pain pathways among patients receiving opioid agonist therapy and to elucidate the dose-response relationship.

Methods: This study was planned as cross-sectional in an outpatient clinic in Graz, Austria. Patients receiving opioid agonist therapy for opioid use disorders (including methadone, levomethadone, buprenorphine, and extended-release morphine) were asked to fill out a questionnaire, including the central sensitization inventory. A battery of somatosensory system assessments was then performed.

Results: A total of 120 patients participated (85 men/35 women). The mean oral morphine milligram equivalent (MME) was 694 ± 249 mg/day. Our study found significant alterations in pain perception, conditioned pain modulation, and wind-up. We demonstrated a moderate dose-response relationship between high-dose opioids and markers of central sensitization.

Conclusion: The present trial demonstrates the clear effects of opioid agonist therapy on the somatosensory system. Both central sensitization and descending pain modulation are negatively affected by high doses of opioids and our data elucidate a moderate dose-response relationship for these phenomena.

简介服用阿片类药物后,外周和中枢神经系统会发生持久的神经重塑变化。这种重塑可导致阿片类药物诱发的痛觉减退,从而增加对疼痛刺激的敏感性。在治疗阿片类药物使用障碍的阿片激动剂疗法中,很少有关于阿片类药物诱发的躯体感觉系统变化的描述,现有的少数报告也没有就不同剂量或物质的影响提供指导:本研究旨在评估接受阿片类受体激动剂治疗的患者疼痛通路的改变,并阐明剂量-反应关系:本研究计划在奥地利格拉茨的一家门诊诊所进行横断面研究。接受阿片类药物激动剂(包括美沙酮、左美沙酮、丁丙诺啡和缓释吗啡)治疗的阿片类药物使用障碍患者被要求填写一份调查问卷,其中包括中枢敏感性清单。然后进行了一系列体感系统评估:共有 120 名患者(85 名男性/35 名女性)参与了此次研究。平均口服吗啡毫克当量(MME)为 694 ± 249 毫克/天。我们的研究发现,疼痛感知、条件性疼痛调节和上风均发生了明显改变。我们证明了高剂量阿片类药物与中枢敏化标记物之间存在适度的剂量反应关系:本试验表明,阿片类激动剂疗法对躯体感觉系统有明显的影响。高剂量阿片类药物会对中枢敏化和下行疼痛调节产生负面影响,我们的数据阐明了这些现象之间的中度剂量反应关系。

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Evidence Supporting the Efficacy of Cladribine Tablets in the Treatment of Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis. 支持克拉利宾片治疗复发性多发性硬化症疗效的磁共振成像证据
IF 7.4 2区 医学 Q1 CLINICAL NEUROLOGY Pub Date : 2024-04-01 Epub Date: 2024-03-15 DOI: 10.1007/s40263-024-01074-3

Numerous therapies are currently available to modify the disease course of multiple sclerosis (MS). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a pivotal role in assessing treatment response by providing insights into disease activity and clinical progression. Integrating MRI findings with clinical and laboratory data enables a comprehensive assessment of the disease course. Among available MS treatments, cladribine is emerging as a promising option due to its role as a selective immune reconstitution therapy, with a notable impact on B cells and a lesser effect on T cells. This work emphasizes the assessment of MRI's contribution to MS treatment, particularly focusing on the influence of cladribine tablets on imaging outcomes, encompassing data from pivotal and real-world studies. The evidence highlights that cladribine, compared with placebo, not only exhibits a reduction in inflammatory imaging markers, such as T1-Gd+, T2 and combined unique active (CUA) lesions, but also mitigates the effect on brain volume loss, particularly within grey matter. Importantly, cladribine reveals early action by reducing CUA lesions within the first months of treatment, regardless of a patient's initial conditions. The selective mechanism of action, and sustained efficacy beyond year 2, combined with its early onset of action, collectively position cladribine tablets as a pivotal component in the therapeutic paradigm for MS. Overall, MRI, along with clinical measures, has played a substantial role in showcasing the effectiveness of cladribine in addressing both the inflammatory and neurodegenerative aspects of MS.

目前有多种疗法可用于改变多发性硬化症(MS)的病程。核磁共振成像(MRI)通过深入了解疾病活动和临床进展情况,在评估治疗反应方面发挥着关键作用。将磁共振成像结果与临床和实验室数据相结合,可对疾病进程进行全面评估。在现有的多发性硬化症治疗方法中,克拉利宾作为一种选择性免疫重建疗法,对B细胞的影响显著,而对T细胞的影响较小,因此正在成为一种很有前景的选择。这项工作强调评估核磁共振成像对多发性硬化症治疗的贡献,尤其关注克拉利宾片对成像结果的影响,包括关键研究和实际研究的数据。这些证据强调,与安慰剂相比,克拉利宾不仅能减少炎症成像标志物,如 T1-Gd+、T2 和联合独特活性(CUA)病变,还能减轻对脑容量损失的影响,尤其是在灰质中。重要的是,无论患者的初始病情如何,克拉利宾都能在治疗的头几个月内减少CUA病变,从而显示出早期作用。克雷利宾片的选择性作用机制、第二年后的持续疗效以及它的早期起效,共同将克雷利宾片定位为多发性硬化症治疗范例中的关键组成部分。总体而言,核磁共振成像和临床测量在展示克拉利宾治疗多发性硬化症的炎症和神经退行性方面的有效性方面发挥了重要作用。

Background: The intravenous (IV) formulation of Rho-kinase (ROCK) inhibitor fasudil has been approved for the treatment of subarachnoid haemorrhage since 1995. Additionally, fasudil has shown promising preclinical results for various chronic diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and dementia, in which long-term intravenous (IV) administration might not be suitable.

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the absolute bioavailability of oral, in comparison to IV, application of the approved formulation of fasudil (ERIL®) and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the oral application of fasudil.

Methods: This was a phase I, single-center, open-label, randomized, two period cross-over clinical trial in healthy women and men. By applying a cross-over design, each subject served as their own control. Two treatments were investigated, separated by a wash out phase of at least 3 days. Oral fasudil was administered once on day 1 to assess pharmacokinetics and three times on day 2, at an interval of 8 ± 1 h, to assess safety and gastrointestinal tolerability. For pharmacometrics of IV fasudil, it was administered once on day 1. Plasma profiles of fasudil and its active metabolite hydroxyfasudil after oral or IV administration were measured by liquid chromatography electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. Tolerability was assessed as proportion of subjects without significant drug intolerance, and safety was assessed by the proportion of subjects without clinical or laboratory treatment-associated serious adverse events. Gastrointestinal safety was assessed by applying the gastrointestinal symptom rating scale (GSRS).

Results: Fourteen subjects aged 30-70 years were included in this trial. After oral administration, fasudil concentrations in blood were mostly very low [1.4 g/L; coefficient of variation (CV) 41.0%]. After IV application, the peak concentration was 100.6 µg/L (CV 74.2%); however, a high variance in peak concentrations were assessed for both treatments. The maximal concentrations of hydroxyfasudil in blood were similar after oral and IV treatment [111.6 µg/L (CV 24.1%) and 108.4 µg/L (CV 19.7%), respectively]. Exposure of hydroxyfasudil (assessed as AUC0-tz) differed between both treatments, with 449 µg × h/L after IV treatment and 309 µg × h/L after oral treatment. Therefore, the absolute bioavailability of hydroxyfasudil after the oral treatment was approximately 69% of the IV treatment. No serious adverse events (SAEs) occurred during this trial, and good tolerability of oral fasudil (90 mg/day) was documented.

Conclusions: Oral fasudil was generally well tolerated in the studied population, and no safety concerns were identified. However, systemic bioavailability of oral hydroxyfasudil corresponded to 69%, and dose adjustments need to

背景:自 1995 年以来,Rho-激酶(ROCK)抑制剂法舒地尔的静脉注射制剂已被批准用于治疗蛛网膜下腔出血。此外,法舒地尔在治疗各种慢性疾病(包括神经退行性疾病,如肌萎缩性脊髓侧索硬化症、帕金森病和痴呆症)的临床前研究中也显示出良好的效果,因为在这些疾病中可能不适合长期静脉注射:本研究旨在评估口服法舒地尔(ERIL®)批准制剂的绝对生物利用度(与静脉注射相比),并评估口服法舒地尔的安全性和耐受性:这是一项在健康女性和男性中进行的一期、单中心、开放标签、随机、两期交叉临床试验。通过采用交叉设计,每个受试者都作为自己的对照组。试验采用两种治疗方法,中间有至少 3 天的冲淡期。第1天口服法舒地尔一次,以评估药代动力学;第2天口服三次,每次间隔8±1小时,以评估安全性和胃肠道耐受性。静脉注射法舒地尔的药代动力学评估在第1天进行一次。通过液相色谱电喷雾串联质谱法测定口服或静脉注射后法舒地尔及其活性代谢物羟基法舒地尔的血浆概况。耐受性以无明显药物不耐受的受试者比例进行评估,安全性以无临床或实验室治疗相关严重不良事件的受试者比例进行评估。胃肠道安全性通过胃肠道症状评分量表(GSRS)进行评估:14名年龄在30-70岁之间的受试者参加了此次试验。口服后,法舒地尔在血液中的浓度大多很低[1.4克/升;变异系数(CV)41.0%]。静脉注射后,峰值浓度为 100.6 µg/L(变异系数为 74.2%);然而,两种治疗方法的峰值浓度差异都很大。口服和静脉注射后,血液中羟基法舒地尔的最大浓度相似[分别为 111.6 µg/L (CV 24.1%) 和 108.4 µg/L (CV 19.7%)]。两种治疗方法的羟基法舒地暴露量(以AUC0-tz评估)不同,静脉注射治疗后为449微克×小时/升,口服治疗后为309微克×小时/升。因此,口服治疗后羟氟地尔的绝对生物利用度约为静脉注射治疗的 69%。试验期间未发生严重不良事件(SAE),口服法舒地尔(90 毫克/天)的耐受性良好:结论:研究对象对口服法舒地尔的耐受性普遍良好,未发现任何安全问题。然而,口服羟基法舒地尔的全身生物利用度为69%,因此需要考虑调整剂量。本文介绍的结果为今后法舒地尔在需要长期口服的慢性疾病中的试验奠定了基础。该试验已在EudraCT注册(编号:2019-001805-26)。

Compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD) has recently been recognized as a psychiatric disorder. Pharmacological treatments for CSBD have received little study and thus have limited empirical support. The main objective of the present work is to review existing literature on the efficacy of different drugs on the symptomatology of CSBD, including the subtype of problematic pornography use (PPU). The main pharmacological approaches to treating CSBD have included opioid antagonists (naltrexone and nalmefene), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (paroxetine, citalopram, fluoxetine, and sertraline), mood stabilizers (topiramate), tricyclic antidepressants (clomipramine), serotonin antagonist and reuptake inhibitors (nefazodone), and N-acetylcysteine. Since people with CSBD may experience different co-occurring disorders, these should be considered when choosing the best pharmacological treatment. Pharmacological therapy for CSBD/PPU has been suggested as an adjunct to psychological therapies, which, for the moment, have the most empirical evidence. However, to evaluate the efficacy of most of the drugs presented in this narrative review, data to date have only been available from case studies. Thus, empirical support is scant and generalizability of results is limited, highlighting the need for more research in this area.

强迫性性行为障碍(CSBD)最近被认定为一种精神疾病。针对 CSBD 的药物治疗研究很少,因此得到的经验支持有限。本研究的主要目的是回顾现有文献中不同药物对 CSBD 症状的疗效,包括对问题性色情使用(PPU)亚型的疗效。治疗 CSBD 的主要药物疗法包括阿片类拮抗剂(纳曲酮和纳美芬)、选择性血清素再摄取抑制剂(帕罗西汀、西酞普兰、氟西汀和舍曲林)、情绪稳定剂(托吡酯)、三环类抗抑郁剂(氯米帕明)、血清素拮抗剂和再摄取抑制剂(奈法唑酮)以及 N-乙酰半胱氨酸。由于 CSBD 患者可能同时患有不同的并发症,因此在选择最佳药物治疗时应考虑到这些并发症。有人建议将 CSBD/PPU 的药物疗法作为心理疗法的辅助疗法,目前,心理疗法拥有最多的实证证据。然而,要评估本综述中介绍的大多数药物的疗效,迄今为止只能从病例研究中获得数据。因此,实证支持很少,结果的推广性也很有限,这凸显了在这一领域开展更多研究的必要性。

Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Medication Use Trajectories Among Women in the Perinatal Period. 围产期妇女使用注意力缺陷多动障碍 (ADHD) 药物的轨迹。
IF 7.4 2区 医学 Q1 CLINICAL NEUROLOGY Pub Date : 2024-04-01 Epub Date: 2024-03-15 DOI: 10.1007/s40263-024-01076-1

Background: An increasing number of women of reproductive age are treated with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) medication; however, patterns of ADHD medication use for women in the perinatal period have not been well described.

Objective: This study aimed to describe ADHD medication use patterns from 1 year before pregnancy to 1 year after delivery, and to describe sociodemographic characteristics and clinical features by medication trajectories.

Methods: The population-based cohort study included pregnancies in Denmark between 1997 and 2020, from the Medical Birth Register, by women who filled at least one prescription for ADHD medication from 12 months before pregnancy until 12 months after delivery. We applied group-based trajectory modeling to classify women into subgroups based on the identification of heterogeneous ADHD medication treatment patterns, and described the characteristics associated with these groups.

Results: Overall, we included 4717 pregnancies leading to liveborn singletons by 4052 mothers with a mean (standard deviation) age of 27.5 (5.6) years. We identified four treatment trajectories across pregnancy and the postpartum period: continuers (23.3%), discontinuers (41.8%), interrupters who ceased filling prescriptions during pregnancy but resumed postpartum (17.2%), and postpartum initiators (17.7%). Continuers were older at the time of conception, gave birth in more recent years, were more likely to smoke during pregnancy, and used other psychotropic medications during pregnancy. A large proportion of continuers used methylphenidate (89.1%) compared with the other groups (75.9-84.1%) and had switched ADHD medication type during the whole period (16.4% vs. 7.4-14.8%).

Conclusion: We found that approximately 60% of women discontinued or interrupted their ADHD medication around pregnancy, and those who continued differed in sociodemographic and clinical factors that may reflect more severe ADHD.

背景:越来越多的育龄妇女接受注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)药物治疗;然而,围产期妇女使用ADHD药物的模式尚未得到很好的描述:本研究旨在描述从怀孕前 1 年到分娩后 1 年的多动症用药模式,并根据用药轨迹描述社会人口学特征和临床特征:这项基于人群的队列研究纳入了 1997 年至 2020 年期间在丹麦怀孕的妇女,她们在怀孕前 12 个月至分娩后 12 个月期间至少开过一次 ADHD 药物处方。我们采用基于群体的轨迹模型,在确定不同ADHD药物治疗模式的基础上,将妇女划分为不同的亚组,并描述了这些亚组的相关特征:总体而言,我们共纳入了 4717 例妊娠,这些妊娠导致 4052 名平均(标准差)年龄为 27.5 (5.6) 岁的母亲活产了单胎。我们确定了孕期和产后的四种治疗轨迹:持续治疗者(23.3%)、中断治疗者(41.8%)、孕期停止处方但产后恢复治疗的中断治疗者(17.2%)和产后开始治疗者(17.7%)。继续用药者受孕时年龄较大,分娩时间较近,更有可能在怀孕期间吸烟,并在怀孕期间使用其他精神药物。与其他组别(75.9%-84.1%)相比,大部分持续用药者使用哌醋甲酯(89.1%),并且在整个孕期更换了多动症药物类型(16.4% 对 7.4%-14.8%):我们发现,约有 60% 的妇女在怀孕前后停止或中断了多动症药物治疗,而那些继续服药的妇女在社会人口学和临床因素方面存在差异,这可能反映出多动症更为严重。

An Evidence-Based Update on Anticholinergic Use for Drug-Induced Movement Disorders 基于证据的关于抗胆碱能药物用于治疗药物诱发的运动障碍的最新进展

Drug-induced movement disorders (DIMDs) are associated with use of dopamine receptor blocking agents (DRBAs), including antipsychotics. The most common forms are drug-induced parkinsonism (DIP), dystonia, akathisia, and tardive dyskinesia (TD). Although rare, neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is a potentially life-threatening consequence of DRBA exposure. Recommendations for anticholinergic use in patients with DIMDs were developed on the basis of a roundtable discussion with healthcare professionals with extensive expertise in DIMD management, along with a comprehensive literature review. The roundtable agreed that “extrapyramidal symptoms” is a non-specific term that encompasses a range of abnormal movements. As such, it contributes to a misconception that all DIMDs can be treated in the same way, potentially leading to the misuse and overprescribing of anticholinergics. DIMDs are neurobiologically and clinically distinct, with different treatment paradigms and varying levels of evidence for anticholinergic use. Whereas evidence indicates anticholinergics can be effective for DIP and dystonia, they are not recommended for TD, akathisia, or NMS; nor are they supported for preventing DIMDs except in individuals at high risk for acute dystonia. Anticholinergics may induce serious peripheral adverse effects (e.g., urinary retention) and central effects (e.g., impaired cognition), all of which can be highly concerning especially in older adults. Appropriate use of anticholinergics therefore requires careful consideration of the evidence for efficacy (e.g., supportive for DIP but not TD) and the risks for serious adverse events. If used, anticholinergic medications should be prescribed at the lowest effective dose and for limited periods of time. When discontinued, they should be tapered gradually.

Graphical Abstract

药物诱发运动障碍(DIMDs)与多巴胺受体阻断剂(DRBAs)(包括抗精神病药物)的使用有关。最常见的形式是药物诱发帕金森氏症(DIP)、肌张力障碍、肌张力障碍和迟发性运动障碍(TD)。神经性恶性综合征(NMS)虽然罕见,但接触 DRBA 后可能会危及生命。抗胆碱能药物在 DIMD 患者中的使用建议是在与具有丰富 DIMD 治疗专业知识的医护人员进行圆桌讨论的基础上,结合全面的文献综述制定的。圆桌会议一致认为,"锥体外系症状 "是一个非特异性术语,包含一系列异常运动。因此,它造成了一种误解,即所有 DIMD 都可以用同样的方法进行治疗,从而可能导致抗胆碱能药物的滥用和过量处方。多发性肌张力障碍在神经生物学和临床上各不相同,治疗范例也各不相同,使用抗胆碱能药物的证据水平也各不相同。有证据表明,抗胆碱能药物对 DIP 和肌张力障碍有效,但不推荐用于治疗 TD、肌张力障碍或 NMS;除急性肌张力障碍高危人群外,也不支持使用抗胆碱能药物预防 DIMD。抗胆碱能药物可能会引起严重的外周不良反应(如尿潴留)和中枢效应(如认知功能受损),所有这些都会引起高度关注,尤其是对老年人而言。因此,适当使用抗胆碱能药物需要仔细考虑疗效证据(例如,支持治疗 DIP,但不支持治疗 TD)和严重不良反应的风险。如果使用抗胆碱能药物,应按最低有效剂量并在有限的时间内使用。停药时,应逐渐减量。

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the central nervous system and can cause various types of pain including ongoing extremity pain, Lhermitte's phenomenon, trigeminal neuralgia, and mixed pain. Neuropathic pain is a major concern for individuals with multiple sclerosis as it is directly linked to myelin damage in the central nervous system and the management of neuropathic pain in multiple sclerosis is challenging as the options available have limited efficacy and can cause unpleasant side effects. The literature search was conducted across two databases, PubMed, and Google Scholar. Eligible studies included clinical trials, observational studies, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and narrative reviews. The objective of this article is to provide an overview of literature on pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies employed in the management of neuropathic pain in multiple sclerosis. Pharmacological options include cannabinoids, muscle relaxants (tizanidine, baclofen, dantrolene), anticonvulsants (benzodiazepines, gabapentin, phenytoin, carbamazepine, lamotrigine), antidepressants (duloxetine, venlafaxine, tricyclic antidepressants), opioids (naltrexone), and botulinum toxin variants, which have evidence from various clinical trials. Non-pharmacological approaches for trigeminal neuralgia may include neurosurgical methods. Non-invasive methods, physical therapy, and psychotherapy (cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness-based stress reduction) may be recommended for patients with neuropathic pain in multiple sclerosis. The choice of treatment depends on the severity and type of pain as well as other factors, such as patient preferences and comorbidities. There is a pressing need for healthcare professionals and researchers to prioritize the development of better strategies for managing multiple sclerosis-induced neuropathic pain.

多发性硬化症是一种影响中枢神经系统的慢性炎症性疾病,可引起各种类型的疼痛,包括持续性四肢疼痛、勒米特现象、三叉神经痛和混合性疼痛。神经病理性疼痛是多发性硬化症患者最关心的问题,因为它与中枢神经系统的髓鞘损伤直接相关,而治疗多发性硬化症的神经病理性疼痛具有挑战性,因为现有的治疗方案疗效有限,而且会产生令人不快的副作用。我们在 PubMed 和 Google Scholar 两个数据库中进行了文献检索。符合条件的研究包括临床试验、观察性研究、荟萃分析、系统综述和叙述性综述。本文旨在概述多发性硬化症患者神经病理性疼痛治疗过程中采用的药物和非药物治疗策略。药物疗法包括大麻素类、肌肉松弛剂(替扎尼丁、巴氯芬、丹曲林)、抗惊厥药(苯二氮卓类、加巴喷丁、苯妥英、卡马西平、拉莫三嗪)、抗抑郁药(度洛西汀、文拉法辛、三环类抗抑郁药)、阿片类药物(纳曲酮)以及肉毒杆菌毒素变体,这些疗法都有各种临床试验的证据。治疗三叉神经痛的非药物方法可包括神经外科方法。对于多发性硬化症的神经性疼痛患者,可推荐使用非侵入性方法、物理疗法和心理疗法(认知行为疗法、接受与承诺疗法和正念减压疗法)。治疗方法的选择取决于疼痛的严重程度和类型以及患者的偏好和合并症等其他因素。医护人员和研究人员亟需优先制定更好的策略来控制多发性硬化引起的神经病理性疼痛。

Background: Intrathecal administration of amphotericin B represents an important adjunctive therapy for management of severe fungal meningitis. Intrathecal preparations have traditionally used amphotericin B deoxycholate. Liposomal amphotericin B is an alternative formulation with good clinical outcomes as systemic therapy, but scant data exist investigating intrathecal use.

Objective: The aim of this exploratory study was to evaluate outcomes following intrathecal administration of liposomal amphotericin B for treatment of severe fungal meningitis.

Methods: A national shortage of amphotericin B deoxycholate necessitated revision of institutional protocols at a southwestern neurosurgical center in Spring 2023. A starting intrathecal daily dose of 0.125-0.5 mg liposomal amphotericin B was recommended (dependent on insertion device), with 0.125-0.25 mg slow titration every 48 h and up to a 2 mg maximum daily dose.

Results: Four cases of fungal meningitis treated with adjunctive intrathecal amphotericin B liposomal formulation were reviewed. This included three cases of coccidioidal meningitis and one case of presumed Fusarium solani meningitis following an outbreak. All patients had initial disease improvement following initiation of intrathecal amphotericin B and were able to tolerate long-term therapy. One coccidioidal meningitis patient expired of neurologic complications shortly after being moved from the intensive care unit (ICU) to a floor unit. All other patients were successfully discharged from the hospital. New headache was the only reported adverse effect, which was managed with dose reduction and did not require therapy discontinuation.

Conclusions: Liposomal amphotericin B may be feasibly administered intrathecally for the adjunctive treatment of severe fungal meningitis.

背景:鞘内注射两性霉素 B 是治疗严重真菌性脑膜炎的重要辅助疗法。鞘内制剂传统上使用脱氧胆酸两性霉素 B。两性霉素 B 脂质体是一种替代制剂,在全身治疗中具有良好的临床效果,但有关鞘内使用的研究数据却很少:这项探索性研究旨在评估鞘内注射两性霉素 B 脂质体治疗严重真菌性脑膜炎的疗效:2023年春,由于全国性的两性霉素B脱氧胆酸盐短缺,西南部的一家神经外科中心不得不修改了治疗方案。建议鞘内注射的起始剂量为每天 0.125-0.5 毫克脂质体两性霉素 B(取决于插入装置),每 48 小时缓慢滴定 0.125-0.25 毫克,每天最大剂量为 2 毫克:结果:回顾了四例使用辅助鞘内两性霉素 B 脂质体制剂治疗真菌性脑膜炎的病例。其中包括三例球孢子菌脑膜炎和一例疫情爆发后的假定梭菌脑膜炎。所有患者在开始接受鞘内两性霉素 B 治疗后,病情均得到初步改善,并能耐受长期治疗。一名球孢子菌脑膜炎患者从重症监护室(ICU)转到楼层病房后不久因神经系统并发症去世。其他患者均顺利出院。新出现的头痛是唯一报告的不良反应,经减少剂量处理后,无需停止治疗:结论:脂质体两性霉素 B 可用于腔内给药,辅助治疗重症真菌性脑膜炎。
