Mitochondrial Disease and Anesthesia

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2017
It is increasingly common for children with mitochondrial disease to undergo surgery and anesthesia. Although many different anesthetics have been used successfully for these patients, serious, unexpected complications have occurred during and following ...

Objects of Affection: Deathly Encounters With Taxidermy, Stuffed Toys and Atmospheres

open access: yesChildren &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores how children and young people relate to death through affective atmospheres and embodied, imaginative encounters with taxidermy and stuffed toy animals. Using arts‐based research (ABR), we explore how death, affective atmospheres, empathy and materiality entangle during multispecies relations.

Volatile anesthetics in oxygenators during cardiopulmonary bypass

open access: yesColombian Journal of Anesthesiology
Introduction: Continuous monitoring of exhaled concentrations and CO2 levels is often lacking during the administration of inhaled anesthetics in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), these levels often being adjusted intermittently based on blood gas values ...

Parasitic wasp‐associated polydnavirus and venom affect arthropod community assembly on wild cabbage via the caterpillar host

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Cotesia glomerata polydnavirus and venom, either alone or in combination, affect colonisation by members of the arthropod community in a natural field setting. Plants damaged by P. brassicae injected with both polydnavirus and venom were colonised more often by Mamestra brassicae caterpillars, Myzus persicae aphids and aphid parasitoids compared to ...

Maternal factors from a parasitoid wasp mediate hyperparasitoid attraction to parasitized caterpillars

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The parasitoid‐associated polydnavirus CgPDV, but not venom alone, significantly increases the attractiveness of Pieris brassicae caterpillars to the hyperparasitoid Baryscapus galactopus at close range. Naturally parasitized caterpillars elicit stronger hyperparasitoid attraction than any injection treatment, indicating that additional factors beyond ...

Fluorinated groups mediate the immunomodulatory effects of volatile anesthetics in acute cell injury

open access: yes, 2011
Volatile anesthetics are known to attenuate inflammatory response and tissue damage markers in acute organ injury. It is unclear whether these beneficial effects of volatile anesthetics are mediated by the ether basic structure or by characteristics of ...

Anaesthetic management of a horse with acute kidney injury

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Anaesthetic management of animals with acute kidney injuries (AKI) is complex and poses considerable risk. There are no publications describing management of anaesthetised horses with AKI. Perioperative and anaesthetic care of a Thoroughbred filly presented with traumatic injuries and subsequent AKI is described.

Modulation of NMDA receptor function by ketamine and magnesium. Part II: interactions with volatile anesthetics

open access: yes, 2001
Mg2+ and ketamine interact superadditively at N- methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, which may explain the clinical efficacy of the combination. Because patients are usually exposed concomitantly to volatile anesthetics, we tested the hypothesis that ...
