ABSTRACT
Total radical prostatectomy for advanced prostate cancer may lead to sexual impotence, since it is associated with severe erectile dysfunction. A widely recommended treatment for this disabling condition is intracavernous penile injection of a mixture of prostaglandin E1, papaverine, and phentolamine. To our knowledge, we present the first case of anaphylaxis associated with intracavernous penile injection of prostaglandin E1 in combination with papaverine and phentolamine.
A prostatectomia radical total para câncer de próstata avançado pode levar à impotência sexual, associada a uma disfunção erétil grave. Um tratamento amplamente recomendado para esta condição incapacitante é a injeção intracavernosa no pênis de uma mistura de prostaglandina E1, papaverina e fentolamina. Até onde sabemos, estamos apresentando o primeiro caso de anafilaxia associada à injeção intracavernosa peniana de prostaglandina E1 em combinação com papaverina e fentolamina.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of phenolamine in the treatment of sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction and its effect on cardiac function, myocardial injury index, and hemodynamics in patients.Methods:The clinical data of 79 patients with sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction who received treatment in Huangshi Central Hospital, Edong Healthcare Group from February 2017 to February 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into a control group (without phenolamine treatment, n = 41) and an observation group (with phenolamine treatment, n = 38) according to whether they received phenolamine treatment or not. Clinical efficacy, cardiac function, myocardial injury index, and hemodynamic index pre- and post-treatment were compared between the two groups. Results:There was no significant difference in 28-day mortality rate between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Intensive care unit length of stay and mechanical ventilation duration in the observation group were (9.33 ± 3.52) days and 83.00 (28.50, 138.00) hours, which were significantly shorter than (12.17 ± 4.15) days and 111.00 (47.50, 169.00) hours in the control group ( t = 3.26, Z = -2.27, both P < 0.05). The response rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [81.58% (31/38) vs. 60.98% (25/41), χ2 = 4.05, P < 0.05]. After 7 days of treatment, the left ventricular ejection fraction in each group was significantly increased, and the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and left ventricular end-systolic diameter in each group were significantly decreased compared with before treatment (all P < 0.05). After 7 days of treatment, the left ventricular ejection fraction in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( t = 3.29, P < 0.05), and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and left ventricular end-systolic diameter were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t = 5.94, 11.21, both P < 0.05). N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I levels in each group were significantly decreased with time (both P < 0.05). At 24 and 72 hours and 7 days after treatment, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I levels in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (both P < 0.05). After 7 days of treatment, heart rate in each group decreased significantly compared with that before treatment (both P < 0.05), mean arterial pressure, cardiac index, and stroke output index in each group increased significantly compared with those before treatment (all P < 0.05). After 7 days of treatment, heart rate in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 4.90, P < 0.05), and mean arterial pressure, cardiac index, and stroke output index in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( t = 4.37, 3.23, 6.01, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Phentolamine can improve hemodynamics, reduce myocardial injury and improve cardiac function in patients with sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction.
ABSTRACT
Local anaesthesia being the most commonly administered drug in dentistry has its prolonged action for up to 3 - 5 hours due to the addition of vasoconstrictors. The extended periods of soft tissue anaesthesia due to the addition of these vasoconstrictors can cause other problems while speaking, drinking, and eating during which there is a higher risk of experiencing self-inflicted injuries to the tongue and lips. Phentolamine mesylate is a drug which helps in the reversal of action of local anaesthesia. Hence, the objective of this study was to provide a basic knowledge about this drug to the patient and assess the interest of the patient in taking the drug when given a choice. METHODSA questionnaire-based survey was conducted among 200 patients who required the administration of inferior alveolar nerve block for their dental treatment. This questionnaire contained basic information about Phentolamine Mesylate drug along with six questions where the patient was asked as to whether or not he / she was willing to take this drug for reversal of the effect of local anaesthesia and specific reason for its usage. RESULTSAmong 200 patients, 122 patients wanted to reverse the effect of local anaesthesia by the use of the phentolamine mesylate drug. Amongst these patients, 93 wanted to take the drug orally initially and upon informing that the injection will be given in the previously anaesthetized area, 91 patients preferred to take an injection of the drug. CONCLUSIONSMajority of patients surveyed in this study wanted to reverse the effect of local anaesthesia by taking phentolamine mesylate drug. However, there is a need to increase the awareness of the type of drug used and the importance of administration of the same.

ABSTRACT
Mitochondria are morphologically dynamic organelles which undergo fission and fusion processes. Our previous study found that arterial constriction was always accompanied by increased mitochondrial fission in smooth muscle cells, whereas inhibition of mitochondrial fission in smooth muscle cells was associated with arterial relaxation. Here, we used the typical vasorelaxants, verapamil and phentolamine, to further confirm the coupling between arterial constriction and mitochondrial fission in rat aorta. Results showed that phentolamine but not verapamil induced vasorelaxation in phenylephrine (PE)-induced rat thoracic aorta constriction. Verapamil, but not phentolamine, induced vasorelaxation in high K(KPSS)-induced rat thoracic aorta constriction. Pre-treatment with phentolamine prevented PE- but not KPSS-induced aorta constriction and pre-treatment with verapamil prevented both PE- and KPSS-induced aorta constriction. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results showed that verapamil but not phentolamine inhibited KPSS-induced excessive mitochondrial fission in aortic smooth muscle cells, and verapamil prevented both PE- and KPSS-induced excessive mitochondrial fission in aortic smooth muscle cells. Verapamil inhibited KPSS-induced excessive mitochondrial fission in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (A10). These results further demonstrate that arterial relaxation is coupled to inhibition of mitochondrial fission in arterial smooth muscle cells.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Painful phenomenon is one of the most important and complex experiences. Phentolamine is a non-selective alpha-adrenergic antagonist. The objective of this study was to compare the effect of increasing doses of phentolamine into subarachnoid space in rats in the modulation of painful phenomenon. METHODS: 84 male Wistar rats were divided into formalin and plantar incision groups, subdivided into six subgroups (n = 7). Control group received only saline (10 µL); active subgroups received phentolamine 10 µmg (GF10), 20 mg (GF20), 30 mg (GF30), 40 mg (GF40), and 50 g (GF50). In formalin group, pain was induced by injection of 50 µL of 2% formalin in dorsal region of right posterior paw. In plantar incision group, pain was induced by plantar incision and evaluated using von Frey filaments. Induction and maintenance of anesthesia were performed with 3% halothane for catheter placement into subarachnoid space and plantar incision. Statistical analysis was performed using the JMP program from SAS with 5% significance level. RESULTS: Phentolamine at doses of 20 and 30 g increased the algesic response in the intermediate phase of the formalin test. In plantar incision test, it had hyperalgic effect on first, third, fifth, and seventh days at a dose of 10 g and on first, third, and fifth days at a dose of 20 g and on fifth day at a dose of 30 g. CONCLUSION: Subarachnoid administration of phentolamine showed hyperalgesic effect, possibly due to the involvement of different subclasses of alpha-adrenergic receptors in modulating pain pathways. .
JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: O fenômeno doloroso é uma das mais importantes e complexas experiências. A fentolamina é antagonista alfa-adrenérgico não seletivo. O objetivo foi comparar os efeitos de doses crescentes da fentolamina, por via subaracnóidea, em ratos na modulação do fenômeno doloroso. MÉTODO: Foram usados 84 ratos Wistar machos, divididos nos grupos formalina e incisão plantar, subdivididos em seis subgrupos (n = 7). No subgrupo controle (GC) apenas salina (10 µL), nos subgrupos ativos, 10 µg de fentolamina (GF10), 20 µg (GF20), 30 µg (GF30), 40 µg (GF40) e 50 µg (GF50). No grupo formalina, a dor foi induzida com injeção de 50 µL de formalina a 2%, na região dorsal da pata posterior direita. No grupo incisão plantar, a dor foi induzida por incisão plantar e avaliação pelos filamentos de Von Frey. Indução e manutenção anestésica com halotano a 3% para introdução de cateter no espaço subaracnóideo e feitura da incisão plantar. Análise estatística dos resultados pelo programa JMP do SAS com nível de significância 5%. RESULTADOS: A fentolamina nas doses de 20 e 30 µg produziu aumento da resposta álgica na fase intermediária do teste da formalina. No teste da incisão plantar, promoveu efeito hiperálgico no primeiro, terceiro, quinto e sétimo dias na dose de 10 µg, no primeiro, terceiro e quinto dias na dose de 20 µg e no quinto dia na dose de 30 µg. CONCLUSÃO: A fentolamina por via subaracnóidea promoveu efeito hiperálgico, possivelmente pela participação de diferentes subclasses de receptores alfa-adrenérgicos nas vias modulatórias da dor. .

MÉTODO: Fueron usados 84 ratones Wistar machos, divididos en los grupos formalina e incisión plantar, subdivididos en 6 subgrupos (n = 7). En el subgrupo control (GC) solamente se administró solución salina (10 µL); en los subgrupos activos, 10 µg de fentolamina (GF10), 20 µg (GF20), 30 µg (GF30), 40 µg (GF40) y 50 µg (GF50). En el grupo formalina, el dolor fue inducido con una inyección de 50 µL de formalina al 2% en la región dorsal de la pata posterior derecha. En el grupo incisión plantar, el dolor se indujo por incisión plantar y evaluación por los filamentos de Von Frey. La inducción y el mantenimiento anestésico se llevó a cabo con halotano al 3% para la introducción de catéter en el espacio subaracnoideo y la realización de la incisión plantar. El análisis estadístico de los resultados se hizo mediante el programa JMP(r) del SAS con un nivel de significación del 5%. RESULTADOS: La fentolamina en las dosis de 20 y 30 µg produjo un aumento de la respuesta de dolor en la fase intermedia del test de la formalina. En el test de la incisión plantar, generó un efecto hiperalgésico en el primero, tercero, quinto y séptimo días con dosis de 10 µg; en el primero, tercero y quinto días con dosis de 20 µg; y en el quinto día con dosis de 30 µg. CONCLUSIÓN: La fentolamina por vía subaracnoidea generó un efecto hiperalgésico posiblemente por la participación de diferentes subclases de receptores alfaadrenérgicos en las vías moduladoras del dolor. .

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy and safety of pituitrin combined with phentolamine versus pitui-trin alone in the treatment of bronchiectasis hemoptysis(BH),and provide evidence-based reference for the clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed,Cochrane Library,EMBase,CJFD,Wanfang and VIP database,the randomized controlled trails(RCT)about pituitrin combined with phentolamine(test group)versus pituitrin alone(control group)in the treatment of BH were collected,and afterdata extract and quality evaluation ,Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.2.3 statistics soft-ware. RESULTS:A total of 43 RCTs were included,involving 3 094 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed the significant effi-cacy [RR=1.50,95%CI(1.38,1.62),P<0.001] and effective rate [RR=1.25,95%CI(1.20,1.30),P<0.001] in test group were sig-nificantly higher than control group,inefficacy [RR=0.29,95%CI(0.23,0.36),P<0.001], hemoptysis stopped or remission time [MD=-2.00,95%CI(-2.43,-1.57),P<0.001],incidence of headache [RR=0.36,95%CI(0.22,0.59),P<0.001],incidence of chest tightness [RR=0.41,95%CI(0.26,0.63),P<0.001],incidence of abdominal pain [RR=0.26,95%CI(0.16,0.43),P<0.001] and incidence of elevated blood pressure [RR=0.28,95%CI(0.14,0.56),P<0.001] in test group were significantly lower than control group,there were significant differences in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Pituitrin combined with phentolamine has better efficacy and safety than pituitrin alone in the treatment of BH. Due to the limit of methodological quality and sample size,it re-mains to be further verified with more rigorously designed and long-term follow-up of large-scale RCT.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of Propranolol and Phentolamine on neurogenic pulmonary ede-ma(NPE)in rats. Methods One hundred and twenty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:the con-trol group(group A),the NPE group(group B),the Propranolol treatment group(group C)and the Phentolamine treatment group(group D),30 cases in each group. Diffuse brain injury was induced in the latter 3 groups. The lung wet/ dry ratio was calculated. HE staining was used to measure the histological changes in the lung tissues. The levels of neuropeptide Y(NPY)and substance P(SP)in the serum and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were detected by enzyme - linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The expressions of NPY and SP in the lung tissues were demonstra-ted by immunohistochemical staining,and immunohistochemical scores(IHS)were measured after scarifying the ani-mals at different time points(0. 5,6. 0 and 24. 0 h after injury). Results Compared with group A,water volume in the lungs in group B increased at 24. 0 h(P ﹤ 0. 05);NPY content in the serum was elevated at 6. 0 h,while that in BALF was elevated at 6. 0 h and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05);SP content in the serum was elevated at 0. 5 h and 6. 0 h(all P ﹤0. 05),while that in BALF was elevated at 0. 5 h(P ﹤ 0. 05);The expression of NPY protein in the lung tissue in-creased at 0. 5 h,6. 0 h and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05),while the level of SP protein increased at 0. 5 h(P ﹤ 0. 05). Com-pared with group B,water volume in the lungs in group C was higher at 6. 0 h and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05);NPY concen-trations in the serum were higher at 6. 0 h and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05),while those in BALF were higher at 0. 5 h, 6. 0 h,and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05);SP concentrations in serum and BALF were higher at 0. 5 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05). The ex-pression of NPY protein increased at 6. 0 h(P ﹤ 0. 05),while the levels of SP protein increased at 0. 5 h,6. 0 h and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05). Compared with group B,the level of NPY in serum in group D was lower at 6. 0 h,and that in BALF was lower at 6. 0 h and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05). The level of SP in serum was lower at 0. 5 h(P ﹤ 0. 05). The ex-pression of NPY protein decreased at 6. 0 h and 24. 0 h(all P ﹤ 0. 05),while the levels of SP protein decreased at 0. 5 h(P ﹤ 0. 05). Conclusions Phentolamine is effective in reducing NPE through reduction of NPY and SP,while propranolol can stimulate the release of NPY and SP to aggravate NPE following traumatic brain injury in rats.
