Morgan, M.D. Anesthesiology August 2024, Vol. 141, 214–216. “[T]he confusing results of GWAS do suggest that the mechanisms of how the genome manifests expression in a living human may be more subtle and complex than the traditionally taught paradigm of DNA–mRNA–tRNA–protein.” Practicing clinicians spend their days managing the variability in […]

Methods This study assessed pain 90 days after ambulatory surgery in an international, multicenter prospective cohort study of […]
Read MoreAuthors: Vincent So, M.D. et al Anesthesiology August 2024, Vol. 141, 313–325. Background Adenotonsillectomy and tonsillectomy (referred to as tonsillectomy hereafter) are common pediatric surgeries. Postoperative complications include hemorrhage requiring surgery (2 to 3% of cases) and pain. Although nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are commonly administered for postsurgical pain, controversy exists regarding bleeding risk with cyclooxygenase-1 inhibition […]

It is widely accepted that the evacuation of acute supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhages does not improve patient outcomes. However, recent advances in minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques (such as trans-sulcal parafascicular surgery) enable effective hematoma […]

Brummett, M.D. Anesthesiology August 2024, Vol. 141, 211–213. “[I]n reality patients are spread along a spectrum of severity […], the use of continuous outcomes increases statistical power of a study, allowing for better detection of more subtle clinical effects.” Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) remains a significant challenge in healthcare, […]
