Abstract
Background: Supine hypotensive syndrome is a common complication in late pregnancy. This study aims to explore the effects of ondansetron on the prevention of supine hypotensive syndrome during spinal anesthesia for cesarean section. Methods: A total of 80 women undergoing elective cesarean delivery were randomly assigned to two groups (the ondansetron group and the control group), with 40 cases in each group. The ondansetron group received 0.075 mg/kg of ondansetron intravenously 5 min before the induction of spinal anesthesia; the control group was given the same volume of saline solution. The blood pressure and heart rate were measured. Umbilical artery pH was analyzed, and the incidence of nausea and vomiting and vasoconstrictor drug usage were noted. Results: The incidence of supine hypotensive syndrome, nausea and vomiting, and vasoconstrictor drug use were significantly lower in the ondansetron group than the control group (2.5% vs. 20%, p = 0.029; 2.5% vs. 22.5%, p = 0.007; and 5% vs. 22.5%, p = 0.012, respectively). Umbilical artery pH was higher in the ondansetron group than the control group, and statistical significance was observed (7.31 ± 0.03 vs. 7.28 ± 0.04, p = 0.002). The maternal hemodynamic parameters and the neonatal Apgar score were similar between the two groups. Conclusion: Ondansetron can effectively prevent supine hypotensive syndrome, reduce the incidence of nausea, vomiting, and vasoconstrictor drug use, and improve neonatal umbilical arterial pH during spinal anesthesia for cesarean section.

Hong SW, Kim SH. The preventive effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 receptor antagonist on blood pressure reduction and postoperative nausea and vomiting during general anesthesia induction: A double-blinded, randomized controlled trial. J Clin Anesth 2023; 90:111232. [PMID: 37633042 DOI: 10.1016/j.jclinane.2023.111232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2023] [Revised: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/28/2023]
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE Administering a 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 receptor (5-HT3) at anesthesia induction may aid in achieving hemodynamic stability during general anesthesia induced using opioids. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effect of ramosetron, a 5-HT3 antagonist, administered on hypotension at the induction of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol and remifentanil. Additionally, we aimed to compare the impact of ramosetron administration at anesthesia induction versus that at the end of the surgery on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). DESIGN Patients were randomly allocated to the Induction group (administration of ramosetron [0.3 mg/5 ml] at anesthesia induction and normal saline [5 ml] at the end of the surgery) or End group (administration of normal saline [5 ml] at anesthesia induction and ramosetron [0.3 mg/5 ml] at the end of the surgery). Hemodynamic status, PONV, and postoperative pain were assessed. SETTING Operating room, post-anesthetic care unit, and general ward. PATIENTS In total, 176 non-smoking patients without any past medical history undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgeries under TIVA were included in the study. MEASUREMENTS Blood pressure (BP), heart rate, PONV, visual analog scale (VAS). MAIN RESULTS The Induction group exhibited significantly higher BP at anesthesia induction and required significantly lower doses of phenylephrine and ephedrine during anesthesia than the End group had. However, PONV and postoperative pain were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Administering ramosetron at anesthesia induction resulted in significantly better hemodynamic stability with significantly lesser requirement of phenylephrine and ephedrine than administering at the end of the surgery did. Therefore, we recommend ramosetron administration at anesthesia induction rather than at the end of the surgery to prevent PONV and the decrease in the mean BP during TIVA with propofol and remifentanil.

Abstract
Cardiometabolic disorders (CMD) is a constellation of metabolic predisposing factors for atherosclerosis such as insulin resistance (IR) or diabetes mellitus (DM), systemic hypertension, central obesity, and dyslipidemia. Cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) continue to be the leading cause of mortality in both developed and developing nations, accounting for over 32% of all fatalities globally each year. Furthermore, dyslipidemia, angina, arrhythmia, heart failure, myocardial infarction (MI), and diabetes mellitus are the major causes of death, accounting for an estimated 19 million deaths in 2012. CVDs will kill more than 23 million individuals each year by 2030. Nonetheless, new drug development (NDD) in CMDs has been increasingly difficult in recent decades due to increased costs and a lower success rate. Drug repositioning in CMDs looks promising in this scenario for launching current medicines for new therapeutic indications. Repositioning is an ancient method that dates back to the 1960s and is mostly based on coincidental findings during medication trials. One significant advantage of repositioning is that the drug's safety profile is well known, lowering the odds of failure owing to undesirable toxic effects. Furthermore, repositioning takes less time and money than NDD. Given these facts, pharmaceutical corporations are becoming more interested in medication repositioning. In this follow-up, we discussed the notion of repositioning and provided some examples of repositioned medications in cardiometabolic disorders.

J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11090887. [PMID: 34575664 PMCID: PMC8468326 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11090887] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2021] [Revised: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 09/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Remifentanil has been used to suppress peri-extubation cough. Palonosetron, a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, is an effective antiemetic, and 5-HT receptors mediate the cough reflex. We assessed the impact of palonosetron on effect-site concentration (Ce) of remifentanil for preventing emergence cough in females. Forty-five female patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy randomly received 0.075 mg of palonosetron (n = 21) or normal saline (n = 24) intravenously at the end of surgery. The remifentanil Ce for 50% (EC50) and for 95% (EC95) of patients were estimated via Dixon’s up-and-down method or isotonic regression. Using Dixon’s method, EC50 in the control group (1.33 ± 0.38 ng/mL) was comparable to that of the palonosetron group (1.42 ± 0.75 ng/mL) (p = 0.813). Using isotonic regression, EC50 (83% CIs) and EC95 (95% CIs) did not reveal significant differences between the control and the palonosetron groups (1.17 (0.86–1.43) and 1.90 (1.45–1.96) ng/mL and 0.88 (0.78–1.23) and 2.43 (1.94–2.47) ng/mL, respectively). No difference was found in the remifentanil Ce to suppress emergence cough in the palonosetron group compared with the control group. It may indicate no effect of palonosetron on antitussive activity of remifentanil.

Abstract
The World Health Organization suggests that the cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the major cause of mortality and account for two-thirds of the deaths all over the world. These diseases kill about 17 million people every year and 3 in every 10 deaths are due to these diseases. The past decade has seen considerable improvements in diagnosis as well as treatment of various heart diseases. Various new therapeutic targets are being identified through in-depth knowledge of the disease mechanisms which has favored the testing of new strategies leading to newer treatment options. Opioid peptides and G-protein-coupled opioid receptors (ORs) have been previously studied widely in terms of central nervous system actions in mitigating the pain and drug abuse. The OR agonism or antagonism induces cytoprotective states in the myocardium, rendering these receptors as an attractive target for protection of heart from the fatal heart diseases. The opioids can provide an extended window of protection of the heart from various diseases. Although the mechanisms may not be fully understood, they seem to play a crucial role in various CVDs such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, ischemic heart disease myocardial ischemia, and congestive heart failure. Since these compounds are already being used in acute and chronic pain, soon these compounds might be approved for use as cardioprotective agents. The following review focuses on the new information acquired on the role of the ORs in various CVDs.

Abstract
Various studies have investigated the role of central opioid peptides in feeding behavior; however, only a few have addressed the participation of opioids in the control of salt appetite. The present study investigated the effect of intracerebroventricular injections of the δ-opioid antagonist, naltrindole (5, 10 and 20 nmol/rat) and the agonist, deltorphin II (2.5, 5, 10 and 20 nmol/rat) on salt intake. Two protocols for inducing salt intake were used: sodium-depletion and the central injection of angiotensin II. In addition, the effect of a central δ-opioid receptor blockade on locomotor activity, on palatable solution intake (0.1% saccharin) and on blood pressure was also studied. The blockade of central δ-opioid receptors inhibits salt intake in sodium-depleted rats, while the pharmacological stimulation of these receptors increases salt intake in sodium-replete animals. Furthermore, the blockade of central δ-opioid receptors inhibits salt intake induced by central angiotensinergic stimulation. These data suggest that during sodium-depletion activation of the δ-opioid receptors regulates salt appetite to correct the sodium imbalance and it is possible that an interaction between opioidergic and angiotensinergic brain system participates in this control. Under normonatremic conditions, δ-opioid receptors may be necessary to modulate sodium intake, a response that could be mediated by angiotensin II. The decrease in salt intake following central δ-opioid receptors blockade does not appear to be due to a general inhibition of locomotor activity, changes in palatability or in blood pressure.

Abstract
The role of the central opioid system in the control of water and salt intake is complex, with both stimulatory and inhibitory effects having been observed. The aim of the present study was to investigate the participation of the central κ-opioid receptors in the control of salt appetite. Male Wistar rats were submitted to two different experimental protocols: sodium deficit produced by the diuretic, furosemide, and brain angiotensinergic stimulation in rats under normal sodium balance. Lateral ventricle (LV) injections of Nor-binaltorphimine (Nor-BNI) at different doses (5, 10 and 20 nmol) inhibited hypertonic saline solution (1.5%) intake in sodium-depleted rats. The salt appetite induced by an LV injection of angiotensin II (Ang II) (10 ng) was also blocked by Nor-BNI injections into the LV, while no significant change was observed in water intake. Furthermore, the decrease in salt intake seems not to have been due to a general inhibition of locomotor activity or to any change in palatability, since central administration of Nor-BNI failed to modify the intake of a 0.1% saccharin solution when the animals were submitted to a "dessert test" or to induce any significant locomotor deficit in the open-field test. Also the central administration of Nor-BNI was unable to modify blood pressure in sodium-depleted animals. The present results suggest that activation of endogenous κ-opioid receptors modulates salt appetite induced by sodium depletion and by central angiotensinergic stimulation in rats.
