Early postoperative recovery in operating room after desflurane anesthesia combined with Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring and warming in lengthy abdominal surgery: a randomized controlled study

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2018
Background This study aimed to determine whether the use of desflurane (DES) anesthesia combined with bispectral index (BIS) monitoring and warming is effective in reducing anesthesia-controlled operating room time (ACT) in patients undergoing lengthy ...

General Anesthetics in Cancer Surgery: Can Anesthesiologists Help the Patient with More than a Safe Sleep

open access: yesMedicina, 2022
Most patients suffering from neoplastic diseases will at some point during their illness be approached surgically. Surgery itself may be unfortunately responsible for tumor proliferation and metastatic spread.

Total intravenous anesthesia for liver resections: anesthetic implications and safety [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2022
Inhalational anesthetics have been the default agents for general anesthesia maintenance for several decades. However, with advances in total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) and a growing body of evidence on the potential benefits of TIVA ...

Exploring the Modulation of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF)-1α by Volatile Anesthetics as a Possible Mechanism Underlying Volatile Anesthetic-Induced CNS Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This review summarizes recent research on the potential cognitive and behavioural abnormalities induced by exposure to volatile anesthetics and suggests a role of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α in mediating these events.

Residual volatile anesthetics after workstation preparation and activated charcoal filtration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background Volatile anesthetics potentially trigger malignant hyperthermia crises in susceptible patients. We therefore aimed to identify preparation procedures for the Draeger Primus that minimize residual concentrations of desflurane and sevoflurane ...

Regional knockdown of NDUFS4 implicates a thalamocortical circuit mediating anesthetic sensitivity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Knockout of the mitochondrial complex I protein, NDUFS4, profoundly increases sensitivity of mice to volatile anesthetics. In mice carrying an Ndufs4lox/lox gene, adeno-associated virus expressing Cre recombinase was injected into regions of the brain ...

The Molecular Pharmacology of Volatile Anesthetics [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Anesthesiology Clinics, 2015
Volatile anesthetics (VAs) transformed medical practice, although their impact may now be taken for granted. More than 150 years after they were introduced, VAs are now ubiquitous in operating rooms, but should not be considered commonplace in terms of our understanding of how they act.

Inhibition of firefly luciferase by general anesthetics: effect on in vitro and in vivo bioluminescence imaging. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
UNLABELLED: Bioluminescence imaging is routinely performed in anesthetized mice. Often isoflurane anesthesia is used because of its ease of use and fast induction/recovery.

GHRHR Deficiency Enhances Retinal Ganglion Cell Survival and Visual Functions in Experimental Glaucoma by Inhibiting Ferroptosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Glaucoma, a major cause of blindness, involves retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration. This study shows growth hormone‐releasing hormone receptor (GHRHR) deficiency preserves RGC survival and restores vision, unlike activation which only aids survival.
