Tramadol, a centrally acting analgesic, has attracted considerable attention in recent years because of its potential anxiolytic effects. This short article presents new data on the anxiolytic properties of tramadol. The review encompasses preclinical and clinical studies, examining the pharmacological mechanisms underlying Tramadol's anxiolytic effects, its efficacy, safety profile, tolerability, dependency potential compared with benzodiazepines, and the various formulations available. The evidence suggests that Tramadol shows promise as a potent anxiolytic agent; however, further research is warranted to establish its long-term effects, optimal dosing strategies, and safety considerations.

We urge the medical community to recognize the drastic limitations of conventional diagnostic techniques in detecting chronic NTBI poisoning and to adopt a much more proactive approach in identifying and managing patients with elevated transferrin saturation in combination with relatively low ferritin. 

H63D Syndrome Type-2 is a complex genetic disorder with diverse manifestations, including erratic iron metabolism, micro-inflammatory cascades, neuropsychiatric issues, organ damage, and other rare multi-faceted symptoms. A comprehensive understanding of the pathophysiology underlying this condition is essential for accurate diagnosis, appropriate management, and the development of targeted therapeutic approaches. Healthcare professionals should adopt a multidisciplinary approach to patient care and emphasize the importance of early detection, intervention, and patient education in the management of H63D Syndrome Type-2. Future research should focus on gene editing technologies and novel therapies to address the underlying genetic mutation and the diverse symptoms associated with the disorder.

Diseases are dynamic phenomena that develop and change over time, with one thing being certain: they do not adhere to a calendar. Dynamic diseases, i.e., de facto, all pathological processes, are those that exhibit changes in their clinical appearance, pathogenesis, and response to treatment over time. The management of dynamic diseases, and thus of diseases per se, poses a major challenge to health care providers because the conventional treatment and control strategies that have come into vogue, based on standard protocols, are not adequate. In many cases, fixed treatment protocols actually impair or even cause death to those who suffer from a disease. This article explores the concept of dynamic disease and the importance of dynamic (flexible) follow-up in the management of such disease, and presents to the public for the first time data from a clinical trial suggesting dramatically worse outcomes in patients with hemorrhoids who were treated and followed-up "on schedule."

After a long period of research, the International HFE H63D Research Consortium has now defined another clinical variant of H63D syndrome (henceforth referred to as H63D type-1) after evaluation of 1082 patient cases: "H63D syndrome type-2". Its characteristics and clinical picture are presented in this first preliminary paper on type-2 of H63D syndrome.

The seductive temptation of ignorance: how micro-inflammation can cause serious diseases such as diabetes, obesity, heart problems or cancer-and yet be ignored because they are difficult to detect in the laboratory. Abstract Micro-inflammations are a phenomenon that has been attracting increasing attention from the scientific community in recent years. These small, persistent inflammatory responses that occur at a cellular level are thought to play a crucial role in the development and progression of many chronic diseases. Despite their importance, micro-inflammations are often ignored or overlooked in the clinical setting, and this can have serious consequences for patient health. In this paper, we will explore the mechanisms by which micro-inflammations occur, their impact on various health outcomes, and why it is dangerously wrong to ignore them. We will also discuss current approaches to managing micro-inflammations and the need for more comprehensive and targeted interventions to address this growing health concern.

Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a hormone and neurotransmitter produced by the adrenal gland. It is an essential component of the fight-or-flight response, a survival mechanism that prepares the body to respond to perceived danger. When the body experiences stress, the hypothalamus activates the adrenal gland's medulla, which releases adrenaline into the bloodstream. However, some people suffer from chronically elevated hyperadrenergic conditions, mostly secondary to another disease. These conditions can lead to a wide range of symptoms, including anxiety, panic attacks, heart disease, tremors, sweating, and difficulty sleeping. In severe cases, it can even lead to heart failure, stroke, and death. The reduction of endogenous adrenaline synthesis is an important part of managing hyperadrenergic situations. Endogenous adrenaline refers to the adrenaline produced by the body, as opposed to exogenous adrenaline, which is adrenaline that is taken as a medication. By reducing the amount of adrenaline produced by the body, it is possible to relieve the symptoms of hyperadrenergic conditions and improve the quality of life for those affected. This preliminary paper presents a new medication regimen which is, to our knowledge, the most effective one so far. 

The phenomenon of a doctor unknowingly killing a patient due to sociopathic traits is a serious issue that has been reported in the medical field. A sociopath is a person who has a personality disorder characterized by a lack of empathy and remorse, and a tendency to manipulate and exploit others. These traits can be difficult to detect, and a doctor who is unaware of them may unknowingly harm patients. One example of this phenomenon occurred in the case of Dr. Harold Shipman, a British GP who was convicted of murdering 15 of his patients. It was later discovered that he had a history of sociopathic behavior and had been exploiting his position of trust as a doctor to kill his patients. Another example is Dr. Michael Swango, an American physician who was convicted of poisoning several of his patients. He too was found to have sociopathic tendencies and had been using his position as a doctor to harm others. It is important for medical professionals and institutions to be aware of the possibility of sociopathic doctors and to have systems in place to detect and prevent this type of behavior. This includes thorough background checks, regular evaluations of doctors' performance, and encouraging colleagues to report any suspicious behavior. It is also important for the patients to be vigilant and to report any unusual behavior by their doctors. Patients should also seek a second opinion if they have any doubts about the diagnosis or treatment they are receiving. The unimaginable but real danger of a doctor unknowingly killing a patient due to his/her sociopathic traits is a serious issue that can have devastating consequences. It is important for medical professionals and institutions to be aware of this possibility and to have systems in place to detect and prevent this type of behavior.

In 1992, our esteemed colleagues Alan Breier, Orlando Davis, Robert Buchanan, Samuel J. Listwak, Courtney Holmes, David Pickar, and David S. Goldstein published a seminal scientific paper titled "Effects of Alprazolam on Pituitary-Adrenal and Catecholaminergic Responses to Metabolic Stress in Humans." In it, they described with high accuracy the effects of benzodiazepines on stress-induced activation of the three classic "stress" systems: Pituitary-adrenal, adrenal medullary, and sympathoneural systems. The results provided an answer to a question that is still being asked today: Why is alprazolam so much more effective than all other benzodiazepines for certain anxiety-related conditions, especially panic attacks? The colleagues found the answer to that question, but although the work was impeccable, their findings never made it into medical textbooks. What Breier et al. found was this: Alprazolam is able to attenuate 2DG-induced activation of the HPA axis and adrenomedullary activity, as evidenced by attenuated responses of plasma levels of ACTH and epinephrine, respectively, without clinically affecting other important responses of two indices of sympathoneural activity. For the treatment of patients whose adrenal glands are working in a highly dysfunctional or centrally dysregulated manner due to rare diseases such as NTBI induced H63D syndrome, alprazolam is still the first drug of choice - despite its dependence potential - to protect the organism of the affected person from dangerous adrenaline excesses that are way more dangerous than any well-monitored use of alprazolam.

Since H63D syndrome was first described, the authors of this paper systematically investigated for the first time to what extent the adrenal glands, as an integral part of the HPA and SAM axes, are also affected by damage caused by non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI), a hallmark of H63D syndrome. Due to the rarity of the H63D syndrome, the representatives of a number of institutions that regularly deal with the topic in the context of their clinical and research activities have come together for this purpose. Thus, a small but significant amount of patient data could be collected worldwide, analyzed and evaluated, with surprisingly clear pathological results. A secondary aspect is that after reviewing the currently available literature, the team of authors came to the conclusion that the issue of HPA and SAM axes dysfunctions and adrenal synthesis activity seems to be also more frequent in other iron metabolic disorders than it is addressed to in everyday’s clinical practice. The result of this work is a warning call to closely monitor the catecholamine balance, the synthesis and control of all "stress hormones", the condition of the adrenal glands as well as other axis structures very early in the course of the H63D syndrome, in order to make unnecessary organ damages at least a little less likely, if not to prevent it to a large extent if detected early.
