The Climate Impact of Medicines in the Hospital Sector: A Scoping Review

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 138, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses a significant challenge for global health. The World Health Organization estimates 250 000 additional annual deaths between 2030 and 2050 due to global warming. The healthcare sector is a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, accounting for approximately 4.4%–5.5% of a country's total carbon footprint, with ...

Xenon does not reduce opioid requirement for orthopedic surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: Is to test the hypothesis that 70% xenon has a relevant opioid sparing effect compared to a minimum alveolar concentration (MAC)-equivalent combination of N2O and desflurane.

Safety and Efficacy of Remimazolam for General Anesthesia in Elderly Patients Undergoing Transurethral Surgery

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Remimazolam, a novel benzodiazepine, acts on the GABA receptor and is widely used for procedural sedation. To date, there are relatively few articles comparing remimazolam to propofol for general anesthesia in elderly urology patients.

Inflammation and DNA damage induction in surgical patients maintained with desflurane anesthesia.

open access: yesMutation research, 2019
The use of anesthetics during surgical interventions may contribute to disorders in the perioperative period. Desflurane is the newest volatile halogenated anesthetic to be introduced in clinical practice.

Volatile anaesthetics reduce neutrophil inflammatory response by interfering with CXC receptor-2 signalling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background Growing evidence suggests a protective effect of volatile anaesthetics in ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R)-injury, and the accumulation of neutrophils is a crucial event.

Hydrocarbon molar water solubility predicts NMDA vs. GABAA receptor modulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundMany anesthetics modulate 3-transmembrane (such as NMDA) and 4-transmembrane (such as GABAA) receptors. Clinical and experimental anesthetics exhibiting receptor family specificity often have low water solubility. We hypothesized that the molar

Comparison of intraoperative brain condition, hemodynamics and postoperative recovery between desflurane and sevoflurane in patients undergoing supratentorial craniotomy

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2015
Background: Post operative recovery has been reported to be faster with desflurane than sevoflurane anesthesia in previous studies. The use of desflurane is often criticized in neurosurgery due to the concerns of cerebral vasodilation and increase in ICP
