Hypothermia, shivering, and dexmedetomidine [PDF]
CC Postoperative temperature is increasingly used to indicate the quality of anesthesia. Anesthesiologists should measure and record the body temperature of their patients perioperatively and maintain it within normal limits. Hypothermia is usually defined as a body temperature less than 36 o C and occurs commonly during surgery [1].

The role of dexmedetomidine in neurosurgery
Dexmedetomidine can be used for sedation and analgesia and has been approved for this use by the European Medicines Agency since 2017. It causes an arousable state of sedation, which is beneficial during neurosurgical procedures that require the patient to cooperate with neurological tests (i.e. tumor surgery or implantation of deep brain stimulators).

The temporary transition of macrophages from a pro‐inflammatory phenotype of macrophages (M1) to an anti‐inflammatory phenotype of macrophages (M2) is crucial for tissue repair and regeneration processes. Bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are utilized as a “trojan horse” for specific M1 macrophage‐targeting and anti‐inflammatory drug delivery ...
