Abstract A 42-year-old female developed a rare complication of tracheal ring fracture following repeated percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy, which was performed after intubation due to progressive respiratory failure in the case of treated organophosphate poisoning. The patient first presented with organophosphate […]
Read MoreAuthors: Hyuga S, Kondo H, Fujita T, et al. Cureus June 21, 2024 16(6): e62809. Background Postpartum peripheral nerve injuries can impact recovery. Elastic stockings are recommended for thromboembolism prevention, although concerns about entrapment neuropathy exist. In this prospective observational study, we investigated the differential compressions caused by wearing elastic stockings before and after anesthesia, […]
Read MoreAuthors: Baidya M, Sinha M, Kumar M, et al Cureus June 23, 2024 16(6): e63004. Introduction Internal jugular vein (IJV) cannulation is a routine procedure in operating rooms, critical care units, and perioperative settings. Ultrasound guidance has notably increased the success rates of IJV cannulation. A modified ultrasound technique known as the short-axis out-of-plane method […]
Read MoreAuthors: Al Jabri R, Burad J, Al Moosa A Cureus June 21, 202416(6): e62843. Background The intraoperative awareness with recall phenomenon involves the memory of intraoperative events. The reported incidence is 0.001%. Awareness is rare intraoperatively but has profound implications. This research aimed to study intraoperative awareness and dream experiences in the Omani population undergoing […]

Cureus June 03, 2024 16(6): e61617. doi:10.7759/cureus.61617 Abstract Chronic low back pain (CLBP) and post-laminectomy syndrome (PLS) can pose significant therapeutic challenges, often refractory to conservative management. We present a case of a 52-year-old male with refractory CLBP and PLS who underwent spinal cord stimulation […]
Read MoreAuthors: Singh N, Kanaujia S, Singh M K, et al. Cureus June 24, 2024) 16(6): e63017. Background: With advanced virtual reality (VR) technology, its usage in health care is creating an impact on patient outcomes. Patients undergoing knee replacement surgery are already anxious due to the surgery, anaesthesia, and unfamiliar environment of the operation theatre. […]
Read MoreAuthors: Clevenger K R, Dexter F, Epstein R H, et al. Cureus June 28, 2024 16(6): e63371. Background: Prolonged times to tracheal extubation (≥15 minutes from dressing on the patient) are consequential based on their clinical and economic effect. We evaluated the variability among anesthesia practitioners in their goals for the age-adjusted end-tidal minimum alveolar […]

Nat Neurosci 2024; 27:449–61. PMID: 38177340 Microglia, the resident immune cells of the central nervous system, regulate and remodel neuronal activity by contacting pre- and postsynaptic elements and executing synaptic pruning and promoting spine formation. However, […]
