Authors: Ma, Guanqi MA.Sc et al Anesthesiology ():10.1097/ALN.0000000000005627, June 19, 2025. Background: The release of synaptic neurotransmitters and function of pre-synaptic proteins are essential for maintaining nervous system excitation. General anesthesia is a reversible state characterized by the loss of consciousness and reduced responsiveness. This study hypothesized that polymorphisms in one or more genes encoding the […]

Read MoreAuthors: Hussain, Nasir MD et al Anesthesiology ():10.1097/ALN.0000000000005607, June 09, 2025. Background: Periarticular local infiltration analgesia has become an important mainstay of multimodal analgesia following elective total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, the role of novel motor-sparing fascial plane blocks – with or without periarticular local infiltration analgesia – has not been fully elucidated for patients undergoing […]
Read MoreAuthors: Guo, Shiqi Ph.D. et al Anesthesiology ():10.1097/ALN.0000000000005478, June 26, 2025. Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common and serious clinical condition that occurs after anesthesia/surgery. While its clinical impact is well recognized, the underlying electrophysiologic mechanisms remain largely unknown, posing challenges for effective treatment. This study aims to investigate hippocampal neural dynamics before and after […]
Read MoreWe’re excited to announce the formation of a new anesthesia group in Riverdale, GA, located just 10 minutes from the Atlanta Airport. We’re seeking dedicated CRNAs to join our collaborative care team, which will include 4 full-time CRNAs and 2 anesthesiologists managing 4 operating rooms. This is a 25% independent practice and doing own blocks! […]
Read MoreAuthors: Kremic, Luka BMSc et al Anesthesiology ():10.1097/ALN.0000000000005626, June 19, 2025. Background: Preoperative depression is common among surgical patients and is associated with undesirable outcomes, such as pain and delirium in the immediate postoperative period. It is unclear whether depression also leads to longer postsurgical hospitalization. This review aimed to evaluate the association between preoperative depression […]

Read MoreAuthor: Patsy Newitt Becker’s ASC Review As the volume of outpatient procedures continues to rise, anesthesia providers are increasingly practicing in ASCs, environments that demand a different mindset than traditional hospital settings. In hospitals, anesthesia providers often operate in controlled environments with longer procedural timelines and less emphasis on direct patient satisfaction. In contrast, outpatient […]
Read MoreAuthors: Sugiki, Kei M.D. et al Anesthesiology ():10.1097/ALN.0000000000005630, June 20, 2025. Background: Several drugs are commonly administered to patients with high body temperature in intensive care units (ICUs). However, previous in vitro studies have investigated only the independent effects of high temperatures or drugs on various cultured cells. We explored the hypothesis that pharmacological treatment with representative […]

Background: A functional anesthetic target has long been suspected to reside within mitochondria, and disruption of bioenergetic capacity is believed to play a role in the anesthetic response. Unfortunately, the exact mechanism by which changes in mitochondrial target activity result in clinically relevant […]
