Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous Melatonin in Preschool‐Aged Pediatric Surgical Patients
ABSTRACT Background Melatonin may have several beneficial clinical effects in the perioperative setting. In children, it has been studied for preoperative anxiety, postoperative pain, and emergence delirium. Melatonin's pharmacokinetic profile is well‐known in adults, but data in young children are sparse.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the median effective volume (EV50) of 0.2% ropivacaine for ultrasound‐guided axillary brachial plexus block (ABPB) in children aged 6–10 years, using the Dixon up‐and‐down method. The EV50 was 0.350 mL/kg (95% CI: 0.197–0.362 mL/kg), calculated by isotonic regression and bootstrapping.

Abstract Background Cauda equina syndrome is a surgical emergency often caused by lumbar disc herniation. Spinal manipulative therapy is commonly used for lumbar spine disorders, but case reports have raised concerns it may precipitate cauda equina syndrome. One cohort study suggested no increased risk, although it did not focus on patients with lumbar
