    Abstract It has long been recognized that status epilepticus can cause considerable neuronal damage, and this has become one of its defining features. The mechanisms underlying this damage are less clear. Excessive activation of NMDA receptors results in large rises in internal calcium, which eventually lead to neuronal death. Between NMDA receptor activation and neuronal death are a number of intermediary steps, key among which is the generation of free radicals and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Although it has long been thought that mitochondria are the primary source for reactive oxygen species, more recent evidence has pointed to a prominent role of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, an enzyme localized in cell membranes. There is burgeoning in vivo and in vitro evidence that therapies that target the production or removal of reactive oxygen species are not only effective neuroprotectants following status epilepticus, but also potently antiepileptogenic. Moreover, combining therapies targeted at inhibiting NADPH oxidase and at increasing endogenous antioxidants seems to offer the greatest benefits.

    Abstract Spontaneous pneumothorax is a common presentation, and there has been a recent surge of research into the condition. With the recent publication of the new British Thoracic Society guidelines and the upcoming European Respiratory Society guidelines, we provide a concise up-to-date summary of clinical learning points. In particular we focus on the role of conservative or ambulatory management, as well as treatment options for persistent air leak and guidance for when to refer to thoracic surgeons for the prevention of the recurrence of pneumothorax.
    Educational aims: To give up-to-date guidance on the acute management of spontaneous pneumothorax, including the role of conservative or ambulatory managementTo discuss the different treatment options for persistent air leak.To guide physicians on when to refer patients to thoracic surgeons for the prevention of the recurrence of pneumothorax.

    Abstract Alcohol and caffeine are two of the most commonly used substances for altering human consciousness. While their adverse effects on sleep have been separately examined in the laboratory and epidemiological levels, how they impact real-world night-to-night sleep, in isolation or together, remains unclear. This is especially true in occupations wherein the use of alcohol and caffeine is high (e.g., financial services sector). Using a six-week micro-longitudinal study, here we examined the real-world impact of alcohol, caffeine, and their combined consumption in a cohort of financial traders. We demonstrate that alcohol consumption significantly degrades the subjective quality of sleep (p < 0.001). Caffeine consumption led to a different phenotype of sleep impairment, resulting in a detrimental reduction in sleep quantity (p = 0.019), rather than a marked alteration in sleep quality. Contrary to our hypothesis, when consumed in combination, evening alcohol consumption interacted with ongoing caffeine consumption such that alcohol partially mitigated the impairments in sleep quantity associated with caffeine (p = 0.032). This finding suggests the sedating effects of alcohol and the psychoactive stimulant effects of caffeine obscure each other's impact on sleep quantity and sleep quality, respectively-potentially explaining their interdependent use in this cohort (i.e., "self-medication" of evening sedation with alcohol to combat the prior daytime ingestion of caffeine and vice versa). More generally, these results contribute to a unique understanding of the singular and combinatory impacts of two of the most commonly used substances for augmenting human consciousness under free-living, real-world conditions, the performance-impairing (and thus economic-cost) consequences of which may be important to the business sector and the society.
