Pain-related cerebral activation in functional magnetic resonance imaging shows less consistent signals that decay earlier than in conventional task-related activation. This may result from pain's top-down inhibition mediated by cognitive or hemodyna

Few placebo-controlled trials have investigated the treatment of breakthrough pain (BTP) in patients with chronic pain. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of intranasal ketamine for BTP in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover t

It is unnecessary to describe the horror of surgery prior to the demonstration of ether anaesthesia at Massachusetts General Hospital in 1846. It was clearly a nightmare for patients and must have been little better for the medical personnel involved

UNLABELLED We used two mouse lines with glycine receptor mutations to determine whether glycine receptors might play an important role in anesthetic responses in vivo. Spastic (spA) mutants were slightly more sensitive (P = 0.02) to enflurane in the

Changes in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) have previously been demonstrated in a number of cortical and subcortical regions, including the cerebellum, midbrain, thalamus, lentiform nucleus, and the insula, prefrontal, anterior cingulate, and par

Background Although pain-related activation was localized in multiple brain areas by functional imaging, the temporal profile of its signal has been poorly understood. The authors characterized the temporal evolution of such activation in comparison

Background Ambulatory epidural analgesia (AEA) is a popular choice for labor analgesia because ambulation reportedly increases maternal comfort, increases the intensity of uterine contractions, avoids inferior vena cava compression, facilitates fetal

The trend of evidence suggests that general anesthetics act directly on proteins in the neural membrane. However, the fact that the functions of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (sodium permeability, desensitization rate) are modulated by the composi

Rationale: Previous fluorescence studies employing 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) have revealed an increase in the fluidity of platelet membranes from individuals with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and their first-degree relatives. This biophysical

Objective:Available risk assessment models are designed for standard coronary artery bypass grafting. We hypothesized that minimally invasive coronary bypass could improve on predicted outcome in extremely high-risk patients (Parsonnet score > 20%) b
