Hysteresis in anesthesia and recovery: Experimental observation and dynamical mechanism [PDF]
The dynamical mechanism underlying the processes of anesthesia-induced loss of consciousness and recovery is key to gaining insights into the working of the nervous system. Previous experiments revealed an asymmetry between neural signals during the anesthesia and recovery processes.

Carotid Endarterectomy Under Local Anesthesia: An Alternative Treatment for Carotid Stenosis [PDF]
Purpose. Carotid artery stenosis accounts for approximately 10% of all ischemic strokes, causing significant morbidity and mortality. Historically the standard of care for surgical candidates for carotid stenosis was carotid endarterectomy, traditionally

Diplopia with local anesthesia
A variety of local and systemic complications can occur during the administration of local anesthesia (LA). Diplopia is one of the very rare complications that follow a posterior superior alveolar (PSA) nerve block. This article describes a very rare case report and the possible mechanisms are discussed in detail.

An Improved Neural Segmentation Method Based on U-NET [PDF]
Neural segmentation has a great impact on the smooth implementation of local anesthesia surgery. At present, the network for the segmentation includes U-NET [1] and SegNet [2]. U-NET network has short training time and less training parameters, but the depth is not deep enough. SegNet network has deeper structure, but it needs longer training time, and

Do Buffered Local Anesthetics Provide More Successful Anesthesia Over Non-Buffered Solutions in Patients Requiring Dental Therapy? – A Systematic Review & Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
Background: The pH of commercially available local anesthetics (LAs) is purposefully low (pH 3–4). Decreasing the pH extends the shelf life of the solution and prevents its early oxidation.

Exhaled propofol monitoring for plasma drug prediction in rats
While propofol can be detected in exhaled breath in rats, robust evidence supporting its correlation with plasma concentrations or its use in predicting plasma levels remains lacking. In this study, eighteen mechanically ventilated rats were divided into
