Structural interplay of anesthetics and paralytics on muscle nicotinic receptors [PDF]
General anesthetics and neuromuscular blockers are used together during surgery to stabilize patients in an unconscious state. Anesthetics act mainly by potentiating inhibitory ion channels and inhibiting excitatory ion channels, with the net effect of ...

Effect of Local and General Anesthetics on Interfacial Water. [PDF]
Water undergoes structural change as it interfaces with hydrophilic surfaces, including the many hydrophilic surfaces within the cell. This interfacial water has become known as "Exclusion Zone (EZ) water" or "fourth-phase water" [1].We tested the ...

Intravenous anesthetics have differential effects on human potassium channels
General anesthetics are widely used in the clinic and greatly promote the development of surgery. However, the incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory complications caused by general anesthetics is still high, and the underlying mechanisms remain ...

Effects of general anesthetics on visceral pain transmission in the spinal cord [PDF]
Current evidence suggests an analgesic role for the spinal cord action of general anesthetics; however, the cellular population and intracellular mechanisms underlying anti-visceral pain by general anesthetics still remain unclear.

General anesthetics are administered to approximately 50 million patients each year in the United States. Anesthetic vapors and gases are also widely used in dentists’ offices, veterinary clinics, and laboratories for animal research. All the volatile anesthetics that are currently used are halogenated compounds destructive to the ozone layer.

The impact of preoperative glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) on postoperative complications after elective major abdominal surgery: a meta-analysis [PDF]
Background Diabetes is a risk factor for postoperative complications. Previous meta-analyses have shown that elevated glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels are associated with postoperative complications in various surgical populations. However, this is the

The changes of pharmacokinetic behavior of the medical substances as a consequence of the „in vivo” interaction with general anesthetics [PDF]
General anesthetics are substances which produce a reversible state of unconsciousness and insensibility. Inaddition to these principal effects, anesthetics modify almost always, the other functions of the organism.
