Newest firstBACKGROUND: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is associated with the risk of iatrogenic biliary structure injury. Therefore, indocyanine green fluorescence dye is used to provide better visualization of the different biliary structures to avoid this type of injury. However, there is still a debate regarding the best route of ICG administration—either intrabiliary or intravenous. This meta-analysis aims to compare the t…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background and objectives Cannabis consumption is increasing in both the recreational and medical settings. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is known to produce cardiovascular effects, but the specific roles of THC and its metabolites THC-OH and THC-COOH in cannabinoid-induced cardiovascular effects remain unclear. We hypothesized that THC and THC-OH mediate a cannabinoid-induced increase in heart rate in either an addi…

Methods With ethics committee approval and written informed consent, healthy cannabis-naïve or abstinent volunteers were included. Fifteen volunteers received an intravenous bolus…
Open article record in new tab ↗Over the last decade there have been significant advances in the discovery and understanding of the cannabinoid system along with the development of pharmacologic tools that modulate its function. Characterization of the crosstalk between nicotine addiction and the cannabinoid system may have significant implications on our understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms underlying nicotine dependence. Two types o…
