DOI: 10.1213/ANE.0000000000007397 This narrative review examined the anesthetic management of parturients with achondroplasia—who represent roughly 70% of all forms of dwarfism—during labor and cesarean delivery. Given the high rate of cesarean births due to cephalopelvic disproportion and the known airway and spinal anatomical […]

DOI: 10.1101/2025.10.06.25337433 This preprint reports findings from a proteomic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in older adults undergoing non-cardiac, non-neurologic surgery, focusing on how surgery alters the CSF proteome and whether the APOE-mimetic peptide CN-105 modifies these changes. The study analyzed paired pre- and 24-hour […]

Anesthesia & Analgesia 141(4):818–827, October 2025.DOI: 10.1213/ANE.0000000000007560 This randomized clinical trial evaluated whether combining dexmedetomidine with lidocaine spray could better suppress the cough reflex during extubation in female thyroidectomy patients. A total of 180 patients were divided into three groups: dexmedetomidine + lidocaine (Dex-Lido), lidocaine alone (Lido), and normal saline […]

DOI: 10.1213/XAA.0000000000002045 This study explored how anesthesiologists conceptualize empathy in clinical practice, a topic rarely examined within the specialty despite the crucial role of patient–anesthesiologist communication during short but emotionally charged interactions. Empathy has been shown to reduce preoperative anxiety and improve outcomes, but […]

DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005776 This meta-research study examined the persistence of the so-called “Table 1 fallacy”—the practice of performing statistical significance testing on baseline characteristics in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Because randomization itself ensures that baseline characteristics are balanced on average, such tests are unnecessary and may […]

DOI: 10.1111/pan.70062 This quality improvement project evaluated the impact of a structured perioperative pain management toolkit on postoperative pain and opioid use following pediatric tonsillectomy and adenotonsillectomy. While opioids are often avoided intraoperatively to minimize postoperative respiratory adverse events (PRAEs), this practice can result in higher […]
