Background and Objectives: Remimazolam, an ultra-short-acting benzodiazepine, is increasingly used in procedural sedation and general anesthesia. It is characterized by rapid onset of action, inactive metabolites, no delay in recovery, and few adverse ...

Liquid general anesthetics lower critical temperatures in plasma membrane vesicles [PDF]
A large and diverse array of small hydrophobic molecules induce general anesthesia. Their efficacy as anesthetics has been shown to correlate both with their affinity for a hydrophobic environment and with their potency in inhibiting certain ligand gated ion channels.

Escape From Oblivion: Neural Mechanisms of Emergence From General Anesthesia
The question of how general anesthetics suppress consciousness has persisted since the mid-19th century, but it is only relatively recently that the field has turned its focus to a systematic understanding of emergence.

Epidural and general anesthesia versus general anesthesia in radical prostatectomy
Induced hypotension with epidural anesthesia influences the intraoperative blood loss in prostate cancer patients undergoing radical prostatectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate intraoperative blood loss and need of blood transfusions in patients who underwent radical prostatectomy under epidural/general anesthesia and general anesthesia.

Objective We aimed to characterize patients with hand osteoarthritis (OA) with deteriorating or improving hand pain and to investigate patients achieving good clinical outcome after four years. Methods We used four‐year annual Australian/Canadian Hand Osteoarthritis Index (AUSCAN) pain subscale (range 0–20) measurements from the Hand OSTeoArthritis in ...

Arginase impairs hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in murine endotoxemia
Background Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) optimizes the match between ventilation and perfusion in the lung by reducing blood flow to poorly ventilated regions. Sepsis and endotoxemia impair HPV.

Nerves and Anesthesia: A physics perspective on medicine [PDF]
We present a recent theory for nerve pulse propagation and anesthesia and argue that both nerve activity and the action of anesthetics can be understood on the basis of simple physical laws. It was found experimentally that biological membranes melt from a solid state to a liquid state just below physiological temperature. Such melting processes have a

General Anesthesia Alters the Diversity and Composition of the Intestinal Microbiota in Mice.
Dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota has been shown to result in altered immune responses and increased susceptibility to infection; as such, the state of the intestinal microbiome may have profound implications in the perioperative setting.

Objective Despite knowledge that health outcomes vary according to patient characteristics, identity, and geography, including underrepresented populations in arthritis research remains a challenge. We conducted interviews to explore how researchers in arthritis have used equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) principles to inform their research ...
