    Abstract Background: The prefrontal cortex (PFC) integrates information from multiple inputs to exert top-down control allowing for appropriate responses in a given context. In psychiatric disorders such as posttraumatic stress disorder, PFC hyperactivity is associated with inappropriate fear in safe situations. We previously reported a form of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR)-dependent long-term depression in the PFC that we hypothesize is involved in appropriate fear responding and could serve to reduce cortical hyperactivity following stress. However, it is unknown whether this long-term depression occurs at fear-related inputs.
    Methods: Using optogenetics with extracellular and whole-cell electrophysiology, we assessed the effect of mAChR activation on the synaptic strength of specific PFC inputs. We used selective pharmacological tools to assess the involvement of M

    Abstract Background: There is emerging evidence of serotonergic dysfunction in patients with seasonal affective disorder (SAD). We examined central serotonergic function in female patients with SAD (fall-winter pattern) by means of neuroendocrine and subjective responses to the postsynaptic serotonin receptor agonist m-chlorophenylpiperazine.
    Methods: Using a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled design, we assessed neuroendocrine and subjective responses to m-chlorophenylpiperazine (0.1 mg/kg intravenously) and placebo in 14 unmedicated female patients with SAD in the depressed state and 15 female normal controls. All testing was done in the fall-winter months and during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. Plasma prolactin and cortisol levels were used as neuroendocrine measures, while subjective responses were assessed by means of visual analog scales of 10 mood states.
    Results: On the basis of net responses to m-chlorophenylpiperazine (placebo effects subtracted from drug effects), patients with SAD exhibited blunted prolactin responses and less sadness than normal controls in response to the drug. When order of presentation of drug and placebo was taken into consideration, altered "calm" and "high" responses were also found in the patient group.
    Conclusion: Evidence of dysfunction at or downstream to central serotonergic receptors in female patients with SAD confirms and extends findings from previous research.

    Abstract Vascular rings represent an increasingly prevalent and diverse set of congenital malformations in which the aortic arch and its primary branches encircle and constrict the esophagus and trachea. Perioperative management varies significantly based on the type of lesion, its associated comorbidities, and the compromise of adjacent structures. Multiple review articles have been published describing the scope of vascular rings and relevant concerns from a surgical perspective. This review seeks to discuss the perioperative implications and recommendations of such pathology from the perspective of an anesthesia provider.

    Abstract The prefrontal cortex (PFC) regulates drinking behaviors and affective changes following chronic alcohol use. PFC activity is dynamically modulated by local inhibitory interneurons (INs), which can be divided into non-overlapping groups with distinct functional roles. Within deeper layers of neocortex, INs that express either parvalbumin or somatostatin directly inhibit pyramidal cells. By contrast, the plurality of all remaining INs express vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), reside within superficial layers, and preferentially target other types of INs. While recent studies have described adaptations to PFC parvalbumin-INs and somatostatin-INs in alcohol use models, whether ethanol or drinking affect the physiology of PFC VIP-INs has not been reported. To address this gap, we used genetically engineered female and male mice to target VIP-INs in layers 1-3 of prelimbic PFC for whole-cell patch-clamp electrophysiology. We found that ethanol (20 mM, ∼0.09 BEC) application to PFC brain slices enhances VIP-IN excitability. We next examined effects following chronic drinking by providing mice with 4 weeks of intermittent access (IA) ethanol two-bottle choice in the home cage. In these studies, VIP-INs from female and male IA ethanol mice displayed reduced excitability relative to cells from water-only controls. Finally, we assessed whether these effects continue into abstinence. After 7-11 days without ethanol, the hypo-excitability of VIP-INs from male IA ethanol mice persisted, whereas cells from female IA ethanol mice were not different from their controls. Together, these findings illustrate that acute ethanol enhances VIP-IN excitability and suggest these cells undergo pronounced homeostatic changes following long-term drinking.

    Abstract Objectives: To determine whether gross motor scores of toddlers after complex cardiac surgery were different from fine motor scores and were adequately represented by motor composite scores and, whether acute care predictors and chronic childhood health markers of gross motor scores differed from those of fine motor.
    Methods: This prospective inception-cohort outcomes study included 171 toddlers after complex cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass at age <6 months, born in Northern Alberta from 2009 to 2019, and without known chromosomal abnormalities. At a mean (standard deviation) age of 21.7 (3.7) months, the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-III determined motor composite and scaled scores (normative values, 100 (15), 10 (3), respectively). The same variables from surgery and assessment were analysed using multivariate regression to predict gross and fine motor scores; results expressed as effect size (95% confidence interval) with % variance.
    Results: Composite, fine, and gross motor scores were 89.7 (14.2), 9.4 (2.5), and 7.2 (2.7), respectively. Predictive variables accounted for 21.2% of the variance for fine motor, and 36.9% for gross motor. Multivariate analysis for gross motor scores included toddlers need for cardiac medication, effect size (95% confidence interval) -0.801 (-1.62, -0.02), gastrostomy, -1.35 (-2.39, -0.319), and single ventricle, -0.93 (-1.71, -0.15). These same variables did not predict fine motor scores.
    Conclusion: Gross motor skills commonly were lower than fine motor skills for toddlers after complex cardiac surgery. Predictors for gross motor scores differed from fine motor scores. Separate reporting of gross motor scores could lead to improved identification of predictors of delay and to optimised early intervention.
