State-dependent complexity of the local field potential in the primary visual cortex [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The local field potential (LFP) is as a measure of the combined activity of neurons within a region of brain tissue. While biophysical modeling schemes for LFP in cortical circuits are well established, there is a paramount lack of understanding regarding the LFP properties along the states assumed in cortical circuits over long periods.

Incidence of and Risk of Mortality After Hip Fractures in Rheumatoid Arthritis Relative to the General Population

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoporosis, a known complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), increases the risk of hip fracture, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Fracture risk estimates in patients with RA treated with contemporary treatment strategies are lacking.

Stabilizing membrane domains antagonizes n-alcohol anesthesia [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, Volume 111, Issue 3, 9 August 2016, Pages 537-545, 2016
Diverse molecules induce general anesthesia with potency strongly correlated both with their hydrophobicity and their effects on certain ion channels. We recently observed that several n-alcohol anesthetics inhibit heterogeneity in plasma membrane derived vesicles by lowering the critical temperature ($T_c$) for phase separation.

Immunosuppressive Drugs in Early Systemic Sclerosis and Prevention of Damage Accrual

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Organ damage in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) in individual organs such as the lungs may be prevented by receiving immunosuppressive drugs (ISs). A new measure of global organ damage, the Scleroderma Clinical Trials Consortium Damage Index (SCTC‐DI), has allowed us to investigate whether receiving ISs may reduce global organ damage ...

Systemic adverse reactions to local anesthetics [PDF]

Acta Stomatologica Naissi, 2019
Introduction: Local anesthetics are the most commonly used drugs in everyday dental and medical and increasingly in cosmetic practice. Today there are a number of local anesthetics that are divided into two groups based on their structure: ester and ...

Disputed issues of systemic toxicity of local anesthetics

Вестник анестезиологии и реаниматологии, 2020
Objective: assessment of the "systemic toxicity of local anesthetics,” term validity, and a legal appraisal of the term “lipid resuscitation.” Regulatory documents and specialized literature devoted to the terminology of toxicity of local anesthetics ...

Association of Changes in Hand Pain With BMI, Employment, and Mental Well‐Being Over Four Years in Patients With Hand Osteoarthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
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 ...

Minimum anesthetic volume in regional anesthesia by using ultrasound-guidance

Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia
The ultrasound guidance in regional anesthesia ensures the visualization of needle placement and the spread of Local Anesthetics. Over the past few years there was a substantial interest in determining the Minimum Effective Anesthetic Volume necessary to

The free energy of biomembrane and nerve excitation and the role of anesthetics

, 2018
In the electromechanical theory of nerve stimulation, the nerve impulse consists of a traveling region of solid membrane in a liquid environment. Therefore, the free energy necessary to stimulate a pulse is directly related to the free energy difference ...

Fast glycorrhachia and cerebrospinal fluid protein as predictors of sensory block in anesthesia with subarachnoid Ropivacaine [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Identify if glycorrhachia and cerebrospinal fluid protein could influence the time of sensory block to T10, the duration and the metameric block's level, after a standard dose of Ropivacaine. METHODS: 80 patients, ASA I - III undergoing to
