Summary: This report evaluated the association between in utero exposure to paracetamol and the risk of developing respiratory disorders such as asthma and wheeze after birth. The study included 330,550 women, and the results showed a significant increased risk of asthma and wheezing in children whose mothers were exposed to paracetamol during pregnancy. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using paracetamol during pregnancy, with the lowest effective dose and shortest duration of use.

Summary: Acetaminophen (APAP) toxicity is a common condition, but the development of methemoglobinemia as a complication is rare. This study analyzed 14 cases of APAP-induced methemoglobinemia from 1968 to 2019. Clinical features included altered mentation and cyanosis. The dose of APAP consumption was unknown in most cases. Awareness of non-classical presentations like methemoglobinemia is crucial for timely intervention in APAP toxicity.

Summary: Paracetamol is the recommended first-line option for mild-to-moderate acute pain, as it has a distinct mechanism of action and a more tolerable safety profile compared to NSAIDs. It exerts its analgesic effect through multiple pathways in the central nervous system, primarily mediated by the bioactive metabolite AM404. The central MoA of paracetamol allows for its combination with other analgesics and could potentially lead to the discovery of new central analgesics with better benefit-to-risk ratios.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence of SNPs related to paracetamol metabolism in critically ill patients and those with chronic kidney disease. The results showed that SNPs led to alterations in metabolite concentrations and ratios, and patients with renal dysfunction had higher paracetamol concentrations.

Summary: In this study, the hepatoprotective effects of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) against paracetamol (PAR) poisoning were analyzed. The results showed that the combined treatment of CoQ10 and NAC could alleviate liver damage caused by PAR intoxication, while NAC alone had limited effectiveness.

Summary: This systematic review examines the safety and efficacy of acetaminophen as a post-operative analgesic for liver resection patients. The findings suggest that acetaminophen can be safely used for baseline analgesia without reaching toxic levels, and it also reduces the need for morphine without adverse effects.

Summary: This review summarizes the studies on the removal of acetaminophen (ACT) from water using an advanced oxidation process (AOP) based on micro and nanoparticles. The review discusses various factors that influence the removal efficiency, such as temperature, pH, catalyst concentration, pollutant concentration, and the effects of scavengers and oxidants. The results show that the use of micro and nanoparticles in AOP is promising for the removal of ACT from water.

Summary: Both high and low doses of acetaminophen (APAP) exposure can induce pulmonary injury, with even exposures that do not result in significant hepatic injury impacting the mature lung with acute inflammatory, morphometric, and metabolic changes.

Summary: Fomepizole shows promise as a new treatment for preventing liver injury caused by acetaminophen overdose, but robust clinical trials are needed to evaluate its effects on important clinical outcomes for patients and healthcare providers. Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic should be learned, emphasizing the importance of assessing the effectiveness of potential novel therapeutics through rigorous clinical trials before their use in clinical practice.

Summary: Research evaluated the safety of using acetaminophen for patent ductus arteriosus closure in premature infants, concluding that short-term use in the third trimester of pregnancy poses negligible risk of closure and is considered safe at recommended doses.

Summary: While the detailed pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) remains unclear, a range of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) are available. A common side effect of almost every MS therapeutic agent is lymphopenia, which can have both beneficial and limiting effects on treatment. Understanding the mechanism of action of the selected agent is essential for comprehending treatment-associated changes in white blood cell counts and monitoring outcomes.

Summary: Paracetamol, commonly used during pregnancy for fever and pain, is suspected to increase the risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorder in offspring by about 25% according to epidemiological studies. However, there are still unknown factors and mechanisms that require further investigation.

Summary: This study reviews the mechanisms of paracetamol-induced hypothermia in rodents and the results from in vitro studies on rodents' tissues. The analysis finds that paracetamol's hypothermic effect is due to the inhibition of a cyclooxygenase-1 variant and can be potentiated by endothelin receptor antagonists. It may also be mediated through GABA(A) receptors and transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily A member 1. Human studies confirm the presence of a hypothermic effect after high doses of paracetamol.

Summary: This study found that in febrile children under the age of 2, there are differences in efficacy and safety between acetaminophen and ibuprofen, with acetaminophen having lower fever resolution rates than ibuprofen, and acetaminophen also having lower overall adverse event rates than ibuprofen.

Summary: This review discusses the current and emerging antiresorptive medications and their implications for dental surgeries. The risk factors for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) should be evaluated before invasive dental procedures, including the type, dose and duration of medication, adjunctive medications or combination of antiresorptive agents, and comorbidities. Patients receiving antiresorptive therapy for malignancy are at a higher risk of developing MRONJ compared to those with osteoporosis, and antiangiogenic agents are commonly implicated. Close monitoring is recommended for patients taking multiple doses of angiogenic inhibitors to detect MRONJ early.

Summary: This narrative review combines the ideal properties of root canal sealers described by Grossman and the requirements of ISO and ANSI/ADA standards, focusing on tricalcium silicate cement sealers. The review finds that tricalcium silicate cement sealers meet many of the criteria for ideal properties, such as placement, antimicrobial properties, and bioactivity, but have limitations in solubility, dimensional stability, and retrievability.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the temporal evolution of external cervical resorption (ECR) defects using a volumetric quantification method. CBCT images of patients diagnosed with ECR who chose not to receive treatment and attended recalls were collected. The volume of resorption defects and the volumetric ratio of resorption defects/teeth increased over time, and there was a higher prevalence of root surface perforations >1 mm at recall compared with baseline.

Summary: A systematic review was conducted to examine the frequency of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (FD) transforming into osteosarcoma (OS). The results showed a low frequency of transformation, with 1.67% of the patients in the study experiencing this transformation. The analysis also revealed that the majority of the cases were in females and developed from monostotic FD.
