Anesthesiology October 2025 | DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005779 This large prospective cohort study evaluated the relationship between preoperative functional capacity—measured in metabolic equivalents of task (METs)—and postoperative outcomes across a broad elective surgical population. While functional capacity is a cornerstone of preoperative risk assessment, this study explored its predictive value using granular […]

Anesthesiology October 2025 | DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005778 This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial assessed whether preemptive magnesium sulfate infusion can improve intraoperative hemodynamic stability in patients undergoing pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma (PPGL) resection—procedures known for extreme fluctuations in blood pressure and heart rate due to catecholamine release. Ninety-two patients scheduled for PPGL surgery […]

Anesthesiology October 2025 | DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005794 This preclinical imaging study investigated how anesthesia type and systemic hyperosmolality affect the central nervous system (CNS) distribution of intrathecally administered drugs. The researchers examined the pharmacokinetics of a high–molecular weight spinal tracer (technetium-99m–labeled human serum albumin nanocolloid, 66.5 kDa) in female […]
