Isoflurane induces learning impairment that is mediated by interleukin 1β in rodents. [PDF]
Postoperative cognitive decline is a clinical syndrome. Volatile anesthetics are commonly used during surgery. It is conceivable that volatile anesthetics may contribute to postoperative cognitive decline.

The General Anesthetic Isoflurane Bilaterally Modulates Neuronal Excitability
Summary: Volatile anesthetics induce hyperactivity during induction while producing anesthesia at higher concentrations. They also bidirectionally modulate many neuronal functions. However, the neuronal mechanism is unclear.

The effect of four anaesthetic protocols for maintenance of anaesthesia on trans-diaphragmatic pressure in dogs. [PDF]
The diaphragm is the main inspiratory muscle and the main indicator of diaphragmatic contractility is the trans-diaphragmatic pressure (Pdi). The aim of this clinical study was to determine the effect of four different anaesthetic protocols on Pdi in ...

The Effects of Changing from Isoflurane to Desflurane on the Recovery Profile during the Latter Part of Anesthesia [PDF]
It is not known whether changing from isoflurane to desflurane during the latter part of anesthesia shows early emergence and recovery in long surgery.

Physostigmine and Methylphenidate Induce Distinct Arousal States During Isoflurane General Anesthesia in Rats [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Although emergence from general anesthesia is clinically treated as a passive process driven by the pharmacokinetics of drug clearance, agents that hasten recovery from general anesthesia may be useful for treating delayed emergence ...

Lower doses of isoflurane treatment has no beneficial effects in a rat model of intracerebral hemorrhage [PDF]
Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage is a subtype of stroke that has a poor prognosis without an adequate therapy. Recently, the use of anesthetics such as isoflurane has been shown to be protective after cerebral ischemia.
