In patients admitted to a neurocritical care (NCC) unit, management of blood glucose concentration (BGC) is a challenging clinical task. Several studies have shown that episodes of hypo- and hyperglycemia and high BGC variability are associated with

Insulin signaling in the central nervous system, a possible pathophysiological mechanism of anesthesia-induced delayed neurocognitive recovery/postoperative neurocognitive disorder: a narrative review

Autor: Ega Qeva, Camilla Sollazzo, Federico Bilotta

Impairment in neurocognitive functions ranges between delayed neurocognitive recovery (DNR) and postoperative neurocognitive disorders (pNCD). Incidence varies from 11% after noncardiac surgery to 60% after cardiac surgery. Insulin receptors (IRs) si

Background and Aims: In patients undergoing surgery for cervical myelopathy, induction of general anesthesia can induce systemic arterial hypotension that may worsen spinal cord hypoperfusion and precipitate spinal injury. In this randomized, control

Perioperative hyperglycemia and neurocognitive outcome after surgery: a systematic review

Autor: Federico Bilotta, Benedikt Preckel, Jeroen Hermanides, Ega Qeva

Publikováno v: Minerva anestesiologica. 84(10)

Introduction Preliminary evidence suggest a possible relationship between perioperative hyperglycemia, postoperative delirium (POD) or cognitive dysfunction (POCD). We aim to present the available clinical evidence related to chronic (i.e. diabetes m
