Predictive Value of Perfusion Index for Assessing Success of Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block: A Prospective Observational Study

Indian Journal of Pain
Background: Perfusion index (PI) is a simple, objective, and noninvasive method for evaluating the success of brachial plexus blocks. There is only one study which assessed the time point at which the PI had the best predictive value.

Scope of physiological and behavioural pain assessment techniques in children – a review

Healthcare Technology Letters, 2018
Pain is an unpleasant subjective experience. At present, clinicians are using self-report or pain scales to recognise and monitor pain in children. However, these techniques are not efficient to observe the pain in children having cognitive disorder and ...

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Decreased cold‐sensing function of the transient receptor potential channel TRPM8 from tailed amphibians

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Despite frogs avoiding low temperatures, examination of four salamander species revealed that none avoided cold and all possessed cold tolerance. Functional analysis of TRPM8, a cold sensor, showed that all salamander TRPM8s had lost their cold sensitivity.

Hemodialysis-induced renal perfusion decline: unraveling the pathophysiological mechanisms linking intradialytic circulatory stress to residual renal function loss

Frontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundResidual renal function (RRF) plays a critical role in quality of life and survival in hemodialysis (HD) patients but characteristically declines after the initiation of HD.

Perfusion index versus non-invasive hemodynamic parameters during insertion of i-gel, classic laryngeal mask airway and endotracheal tube

Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2013
Background: Perfusion index (PI) is a non-invasive numerical value of peripheral perfusion obtained from a pulse oximeter. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of PI for detecting haemodynamic stress responses to insertion of i-gel, laryngeal mask ...
