Summary Introduction The UK NHS is committed to reaching net zero carbon emissions by 2040. Volatile anaesthetic agents are potent greenhouse gases and alternative intravenous methods exist. We aimed to predict the cost‐effectiveness of a transition from volatile anaesthesia to total intravenous anaesthesia to reduce carbon emissions. Methods A general

Summary Introduction Identifying postoperative pain trajectories and pre‐operative risk factors may support preventative measures and enhance pain management. We aimed to determine the feasibility of gathering peri‐operative data from families of children, describe their recovery trajectories and identify risk factors for high postsurgical pain ...

Opioids in breast cancer: Between analgesia and modulation of tumour progression
Preclinical investigations consistently demonstrate that activation of μ‐opioid receptors and δ‐opioid receptors promote proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, epithelial‐mesenchymal transition, acquisition of cancer stem cell phenotypes, and chemoresistance.

Summary Alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists provide analgesia when used as sole agents but can also be used in combination with other drugs for their additive and potentially synergistic effects. Further, because of their effects on blood flow, alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists act to extend and perhaps intensify the effects of drugs, such as local ...

Abstract Background Pregabalin reduces excitatory neurotransmitter release and is used for anxiolysis in humans, cats, and horses. The effects of pregabalin on equine recovery following isoflurane anaesthesia are unknown. Objectives To determine if pre‐anaesthetic oral pregabalin influences recovery time and/or quality from isoflurane anaesthesia in ...
