Abstract
Sugammadex is a new generation drug that has led to significant changes in the practice of anesthesia. However, its effects on fetal development are not yet fully known. The aim of this study is to investigate the teratogenic effects of sugammadex on neural tube and embryonic development in early chick embryos. In this study, 50 0-day fertile specific non-pathogenic (SPF) eggs were used. Fifty eggs were divided into 5 different groups, each consisting of 10 pieces. While no substance was given to the control group at the 28th hour of the study, 4 different doses of sugammadex were administered to the experimental groups, respectively 2, 4, 8, 16 mg/kg. Cranio-caudal lengths of embryos, somite numbers, average number of argyrophilic nucleolar regulatory regions (AgNOR) per nucleus, total AgNOR area/total nuclear area (TAA/NA) ratios, Caspase-3 H-Score results, and presence of neural tube defect were compared among the groups. While the mean cranio-caudal lengths, somite counts, TAA/NA ratios and AgNOR counts of the embryos were found to be statistically significantly lower than the control group, Caspase-3 H-Score mean results were found to be significantly higher (p < .05). In addition, it was observed that there was an increase in neural tube patency and developmental delay. As a result, sugammadex crossing the placenta was revealed to increase the release of proapopitotic molecules and disrupt the developmental stages of embryos. Thus, it was determined that sugammadex in increased developmental delay and incidence of neural tube defects in early chick embryos with increased dose dependent. Despite these results, the effects of sugammadex on fetal development in in vivo and in vitro environments should be studied with further studies. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: Sugammadex is a new generation drug that has led to significant changes in the practice of anesthesia. However, its effects on fetal development are not yet fully known. It has been observed that different doses of sugammadex increase the risk of neural tube defect development on chick embryos and slow the embryo development in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the cellular-level adverse effects of tourniquet use on the infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS Infrapatellar fat pad samples were collected in a prospective, randomized design to compare 2 groups of primary TKA patients with a tourniquet (T) and without a tourniquet (NT). The study included 80 knees of 58 patients with a mean age of 65.91 ± 9.04 years. The authors collected 3 samples from the T group (after exposure to the fat pad "t1," just before deflating the tourniquet "t2," just before fascia closure "t3") and 2 samples from the NT group (t1 and t3) for each patient. BAX, Bcl-2, and HIF-1α staining showed the extent of cellular hypoxia and apoptosis in IPFP cells, whereas the oxidative stress index (OSI) was determined using a biochemical method. The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), Knee Society Score (KSS), and Kujala score were used as clinical outcome measures. RESULTS The mean HIF-1α, BAX/Bcl-2, and OSI scores across all time points were significantly higher in the T group than in the NT group (p<0.001) (d=1.16, 2.9, and 0.9, respectively). The mean BAX/Bcl-2 (P=.030) and HIF-1α (P < .001) scores significantly peaked at t2 in the T group (d=-1.2 and -3.9, respectively). The OSI had higher levels at t1 (P=.011) and t3 (P=.073) (d=0.2 and 0.1, respectively) than at t2 in the T group. The third-month postoperative follow-up revealed that the mean KOOS, KSS, and Kujala score improved significantly compared to the baseline preoperative values (P < .001); however, there was no difference between the T and NT groups regarding the maximum and total knee range of motion or clinical outcome scores. CONCLUSION Evidence from this study has shown that tourniquet use during primary TKA may be associated with significantly increased cellular hypoxia, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in the IPFP. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level I, Therapeutic study.

Abstract
PURPOSE There has been increased interest in phytochemical antioxidants to prevent protein damage and aggregate formation in cataract treatment. In this study, the protective effect of different doses of Rb1 (GRb1), one of the ginsenosides of Panax Ginseng, in the experimental cataract model formed in chick embryos was investigated. METHODS Five different experimental groups were formed with 100 SPF fertilized eggs: Control (0.9% NaCl to physiological saline), hydrocortisone hemisuccinate sodium (HC), low dose (HC + L-GRb1 (1 mg/kg)), medium dose (HC+). M-GRb1 (2.5 mg/kg)), and high dose (HC + H-GRb1 (5 mg/kg)). All solutions were given to air sack at 15 days of incubation. On the 17th day, the bulbous oculi of the chick embryos were dissected. Cataract formations of the lenses, glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant (TAS), total oxidant (TOS) levels, Caspase-3 H-score, and TUNEL index were determined. In addition, crystalline alpha A (CRYAA) gene expression was evaluated. RESULTS Cataracts were observed in the control, HC, HC + L-GRb1, HC + M-GRb1, and HC + H-GRb1 groups with a frequency of 0%, 100%, 75%, 56.25%, and 100%, respectively. There were statistically significant differences between the control and HC groups in terms of TAS, TOS, MDA, GSH, Caspase-3 H-score, and TUNEL index (p < .05). When the therapeutic effect of the GRb1 groups was evaluated, the HC group showed significant differences with the HC + L-GRb1 and HC + M-GRb1 groups in almost all parameters (p < .05), while there was no statistical difference with the HC + H-GRb1 group (p > .05). In addition, gene expression levels differed between the groups, although not statistically significant (p > .05). CONCLUSION 1 mg/kg and 2.5 mg/kg GRb1 applications show therapeutic properties on the HC-induced cataract model. This effect is more pronounced at 2.5 mg/kg.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effectiveness of the myo-inositol oxygenase (MIOX) enzyme was investigated in the diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI). METHODS In total, 40 rats were divided into 5 groups (n = 8, for each group) while left kidney ischemia-reperfusion was implemented in groups 2, 3, 4 and 5. Group 1 was the control group. Group 2 underwent 1‑hour ischemia and 2‑hour reperfusion. Group 3 underwent 1‑hour ischemia and 4‑hour reperfusion. Group 4 underwent 2‑hour ischemia and 2‑hour reperfusion. Group 5 underwent 2‑hour ischemia and 4‑hour reperfusion. RESULTS Serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels in all ischemia-reperfusion groups were higher than in the control group (p<0.001). Serum MIOX level was higher in groups 2, 3 and 4 than in group 1 (p=0.002). Tissue MIOX level was lower in groups 2, 4, and 5 than in group 1 (p=0.039). Serum and tissue neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin levels were not significantly different between the groups. The injury level in histopathologic examination was as follows: group 1<group 3<group 2=group 4<group 5. CONCLUSION The serum MIOX level increases in the early stages of AKI, however, decreases subsequently. Therefore, the serum MIOX may be a potential promising biomarker in the early diagnosis of AKI (Tab. 5, Fig. 6, Ref. 30).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Herbal treatments are becoming increasingly popular in many countries. Anchusa Boraginaceae (also called Tort plant and beef tongue) is commonly used as a herbal medicine in Elazıg region as diuretic and in the treatment of ulcers, and it is stated that this has no adverse effect. We report a case of acute hepatitis associated with long time use of high doses of Anchusa Boraginaceae. CASE A 43-year-old male patient is drinking water of Anchusa Boraginaceae that is boiling for 14 days to dissolve the stones in the gallbladder. He had no medical history and did not take any other drugs or toxins. Two weeks later ; he admitted with developed tea colored like urine and yellowing of the body. Three weeks later; he was referred to the our department from the epicenter. Blood tests showed aspartate aminotransferase : 37 U/L, alanine aminotransferase : 66 U/L, gama glutamyl transferase : 23 U/L, total bilirubin : 16.9 mg/dL, direct bilirubin : 12 mg/dL, and INR : 1.3 Viral and autoimmune hepatitis were eliminated. Upper abdominal ultrasound was normal. After the herbal medicine was stopped on admission, the patient's laboratory tests didn't recover. Then; the support treatment was performed. The clinical and the laboratory values returned to normal after 2 months after the acute episode. CONCLUSIONS The consumption of herbal medicines containing Anchusa Boraginaceae can induce toxic hepatitis. Recovery can be complete after discontinuation. This case report highlights the risk and lytic effect on gallstone associated with Anchusa Boraginaceae.
