Mechanisms of Volatile Anesthetic-Induced Myocardial Protection [PDF]
, 2003 Volatile anesthetics protect myocardium against reversible and irreversible ischemic injury. Experimental evidence from several in vitro and in vivo animal models demonstrates that volatile agents enhance the recovery of stunned myocardium and reduce the

Quantification of depth of anesthesia by nonlinear time series analysis of brain electrical activity
, 2000 We investigate several quantifiers of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal with respect to their ability to indicate depth of anesthesia. For 17 patients anesthetized with Sevoflurane, three established measures (two spectral and one based on the ...

Suspected congenital oesophageal stenosis in a cat
Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.Abstract A 6‐week‐old, female, British shorthair cat was presented with a 4‐week history of regurgitation and a 2‐day history of cough and dyspnoea. Thoracic radiographs revealed an alveolar pattern suggestive of pneumonia secondary to regurgitation, and antibiotic therapy was initiated. After identifying a smooth stenosis with no signs of inflammation

Autophagy Is Involved in the Sevoflurane Anesthesia-Induced Cognitive Dysfunction of Aged Rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Autophagy is associated with regulation of both the survival and death of neurons, and has been linked to many neurodegenerative diseases. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is commonly observed in elderly patients following anesthesia, but the ...

The potential dual effects of sevoflurane on AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Anesthesia with multiple exposures of commonly used inhalation anesthetic sevoflurane induces neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment in young mice, but anesthesia with a single exposure to sevoflurane does not.

Euthanasia of laboratory mice: Are isoflurane and sevoflurane real alternatives to carbon dioxide?
PLoS ONE, 2018 In the European Union (EU) millions of laboratory mice are used and killed for experimental and other scientific purposes each year. Although controversially discussed, the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) is still permitted for killing rodents according to ...

Gastric dilatation secondary to incarceration through a gastrosplenic omental rent in a dog
Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.Abstract A 2‐year‐old, entire, female Dogue de Bordeaux presented with inappetence and abdominal distension. Radiographs revealed gastric dilatation and malpositioning. Given the absence of classical signs of gastric dilatation and volvulus, a medical approach was elected. After 24 hours, the dog's condition deteriorated.
