Newer Neuromuscular Blocking Agents [PDF]
Four neuromuscular blocking drugs, doxacurium, mivacurium, pipecuronium, and rocuronium have been or are about to be introduced into clinical practice. The purpose of this MiniReview is to describe their pharmacology, to consider their place in clinical anaesthetic practice, and to examine whether the needs of the clinican have been met.

Focus on the agents most frequently responsible for perioperative anaphylaxis
Adverse reactions (ARs) to drugs administered during general anesthesia may be very severe and life-threatening, with a mortality rate ranging from 3 to 9%. The adverse reactions to drugs may be IgE and non-IgE-mediated.

Managing Persistent Radial Artery Spasm During Coronary Catheterization: A Complex Case Study
ABSTRACT This case report details the management of persistent radial artery spasm during coronary catheterization, unresponsive to standard pharmacotherapy. After conventional methods failed, deep sedation, neuromuscular blockade, and orotracheal intubation proved essential.

NSAIDS AS MODULATORS OF CATION CHANNELS: FENAMATES REPURPOSING IN CHANNELOPATHIES
Cationic ion channels are transmembrane proteins that regulate the flux of cations (potassium, sodium, and calcium) across cell membrane, playing a pivotal role in many cellular functions. Disruptions of their activity can lead to the so‐called genetic or acquired channelopathies, a heterogeneous group of diseases that affect multiple human systems ...

Abstract Background The endocannabinoid system is a neuromodulatory system implicated in cellular processes during both development and regeneration. The Mexican axolotl, one of only a few vertebrates capable of central nervous system regeneration, was used to examine the role of the endocannabinoid system in the regeneration of the tail and spinal ...

Role of selenium in the pathophysiology of cardiorenal anaemia syndrome
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) have multiple bidirectional mechanisms, and anaemia is one of the critical factors that are associated with the progression of the two disorders [referred to as cardiorenal anaemia syndrome (CRAS)].

Abstract Aims Sarcopenia is a major comorbidity in heart failure (HF) patients, but its comprehensive evaluation remains challenging due to resource limitations. Computed tomography (CT) imaging allows opportunistic assessment of both muscle quantity and quality; however, its diagnostic utility and relationships with physical performance and underlying

BILE SALTS AND NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING AGENTS
The influence of the primary bile salts taurocholate and chenodeoxycholate on the neuromuscular blockade of the non-depolarizing drugs Org 6368, pancuronium, Org NC 45 and hexafluorenium was studied in cats. An increase in the effects of these agents, all possessing widely varying molecular structures, was found following administration of the bile ...
