Future perspective on chronic kidney disease management

Over-activation of the sympathetic nervous system is one of the major characteristics in chronic kidney disease (CKD), with renal ischemia playing a pivotal role in its development. While various pharmacologic...

Pain trajectory after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with prolonged use of outpatient adductor canal catheters

In this prospective observational study, we sought to evaluate whether the prolonged use of adductor canal nerve block catheters provides benefits for patients undergoing primary total knee arthrop...

Mechanism of antidepressant action of ketamine and differences between its two enantiomers

Ketamine has been widely used since its discovery, and in addition to its anesthetic effects, in recent years it has been found to exhibit rapid and sustained antidepressant effects in rodent models...

From static to dynamic: Artificial intelligence revolution in perioperative care through multimodal data fusion and closed-loop optimization

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into perioperative care represents a paradigmatic transformation from static decision frameworks to dynamic, adaptive systems. This comprehensive review...

Remimazolam in anesthesia and sedation: A narrative review

Remimazolam, an innovative sedative, provides a rapid onset and quick recovery by being rapidly hydrolyzed into pharmacologically inactive CNS7054 via ubiquitous nonspecific esterases. Its pharmacokinetic...

Open lung ventilation with low tidal volumes, staircase recruitment maneuvers, high PEEP and decremental PEEP titration vs ARDSNet in ARDS: A systematic review and meta-analysis

The impact of open lung ventilation (OLV) with low tidal volumes (TV), staircase recruitment maneuvers (SRMs), high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), and decremental PEEP titration on acute respiratory...

Clinical practice guidelines for postoperative pain management in adults (2024 edition)

Acute pain differs in many aspects from chronic pain states and can arise from various etiologies. Recent years have seen advancements in postoperative acute pain management, which is a critical component...

Practice advisory on the management of the perioperative period of scoliosis correction surgery

Scoliosis correction surgery is a complex procedure aimed at rectifying the spinal lateral curvature and rotation. Perioperative anesthetic management is a critical determinant of both surgical success...

What is new in cardiac anesthesia in 2024?

Recent advances in cardiac anesthesia have led to improved patient care and safety. In 2024, there is a growing focus on patient-centered approaches aimed at improving overall outcomes. This includes...

Safety and feasibility of a rapid reversible induction strategy in anesthesia induction

Unexpected airway management challenges during anesthesia induction—particularly "Cannot Intubate, Cannot Ventilate" (CICV) scenarios—pose significant risks of hypoxemia and hemodynamic instability....

Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries in a patient undergoing nephrectomy under general anesthesia

Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is an uncommon but clinically significant condition, particularly during the perioperative period. Its diagnosis is challenging...

Perioperative multivariate analysis and risk prediction of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery: Based on dynamic temperature changes during cardiopulmonary bypass

Temperature variations during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may significantly contribute to the development and progression of acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery. We tested the hypothesis...

Efficacy and safety of continuous infusion of remimazolam for sedation in elderly patients undergoing colonoscopic polypectomy: A non-inferiority prospective controlled clinical trial

To study the efficacy and safety of a bolus dose of remimazolam followed by its continuous infusion, and to identify its optimal maintenance dose in elderly patients undergoing colonoscopic polypectomy,...

Prognostic value of echocardiogram and cardiac biomarkers through three waves of COVID-19

COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the scientific field. The multitude of effects this virus has on different organ systems is a continuously expanding range of study. The purpose of this study...

Chronic stress contributes to long-term isoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction via histone acetylation modulated by RbAp48-HDAC2 in male mice

Histone deacetylation has been shown to be related to memory decline in aging and neurodegenerative diseases. Chronic stress, which has been shown to induce histone deacetylation, is associated with...

Spinal TREM2/PI3K/Akt signal axis elicits microglial activation and aggravates bone cancer pain

The TREM2 signaling pathway is activated in multiple pain conditions; nevertheless, its role in the regulation of bone cancer pain remains largely unexplored. The persistent pathological progression...

Intraoperative electroencephalography predicts postoperative nausea and vomiting in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common causes for rehospitalization and emergency department visits after bariatric surgery. The current understanding of risk factors prediction...
