A mini-review of the effects of inhalational and intravenous anesthetics on oxidative stress in dogs

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
General anesthesia increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can exacerbate or increase oxidative stress and thus affect the prognosis of surgical procedures.

Comparative analysis of the effects of inhalational and intravenous anesthetics on hemodynamic variability and cardiovascular complications in patients undergoing general anesthesia – a review of current evidence

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport
Background. Patient hemodynamic stability during general anesthesia is a crucial factor, managing which helps avoid many complications, especially cardiovascular ones. Intravenous and inhaled anesthetics affect the human body differently, have different

Perioperative and anesthetic deaths: toxicological and medico legal aspects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Anesthesia has become safer during decades, though there is still a preventable mortality; the complexity of medical and surgical interventions, increasingly older and sicker patients, has created a host of new hazards in anesthesiology.

The effect of intravenous and inhalation anesthesia in general on the cognition of elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2023
BackgroundPostoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a postoperative complication that often occurs in the elderly. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare intravenous anesthetics (propofol) with inhalation anesthetics (sevoflurane ...

The free energy of biomembrane and nerve excitation and the role of anesthetics

open access: yes, 2018
In the electromechanical theory of nerve stimulation, the nerve impulse consists of a traveling region of solid membrane in a liquid environment. Therefore, the free energy necessary to stimulate a pulse is directly related to the free energy difference ...

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...
