Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of a non-reactive carbon dioxide absorbent (AMSORB® Plus) versus a traditional carbon dioxide absorbent (Medisorb™) on the FGF used by anesthesia providers and an electronic educational feedback intervention using Carestation™ Insights (GE HealthCare) on provider-specific change in FGF. DESIGN Prospective, single-center cohort study set in a greening initiative. SETTING Operating room. PARTICIPANTS 157 anesthesia providers (i.e., anesthesiology trainees, certified registered nurse anesthetists, and solo anesthesiologists). INTERVENTIONS Intervention #1 was the introduction of AMSORB® Plus into 8 Aisys CS2, Carestation™ Insights-enabled anesthesia machines (GE HealthCare) at the study site. At the end of week 6, anesthesia providers were educated and given an environmentally oriented electronic feedback strategy for the next 12 weeks of the study (Intervention #2) using Carestation™ Insights data. MEASUREMENTS The dual primary outcomes were the difference in average daily FGF during maintenance anesthesia between machines assigned to AMSORB® Plus versus Medisorb™ and the provider-specific change in average fresh gas flows after 12 weeks of feedback and education compared to the historical data. MAIN RESULTS Over the 18-week period, there were 1577 inhaled anesthetics performed in the 8 operating rooms (528 for intervention 1, 1049 for intervention 2). There were 1001 provider days using Aisys CS2 machines and 7452 provider days of historical data from the preceding year. Overall, AMSORB® Plus was not associated with significantly less FGF (mean - 80 ml/min, 97.5% confidence interval - 206 to 46, P = .15). The environmentally oriented electronic feedback intervention was not associated with a significant decrease in provider-specific mean FGF (-112 ml/min, 97.5% confidence interval - 244 to 21, P = .059). CONCLUSIONS This study showed that introducing a non-reactive absorbent did not significantly alter FGF. Using environmentally oriented electronic feedback relying on data analytics did not result in significantly reduced provider-specific FGF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of oral tasipimidine on dog handling, ease of catheter placement and propofol and isoflurane requirements for anaesthesia. STUDY DESIGN Placebo-controlled, randomized, blinded, experimental trial. ANIMALS A group of seven adult Beagle dogs weighing (mean ± standard deviation) 13.1 ± 2.7 kg with a mean age of 18.6 ± 1 months. METHODS The dogs underwent four treatments before induction of anaesthesia with propofol. PP: placebo orally (PO) 60 minutes before induction of anaesthesia followed by placebo (NaCl 0.9%) intravenously (IV). TP: tasipimidine 30 μg kg-1 (PO) 60 minutes before induction of anaesthesia followed by placebo (NaCl 0.9%) IV. TMP: tasipimidine 30 μg kg-1 PO 60 minutes before induction of anaesthesia followed by methadone 0.2 mg kg-1 IV. TMPD: tasipimidine 30 μg kg-1 PO 60 minutes before induction of anaesthesia followed by methadone 0.2 mg kg-1 and dexmedetomidine 1 μg kg-1 IV followed by a dexmedetomidine constant rate infusion of 1 μg kg-1 hour-1. Sedation, response to catheter placement, intubation quality, time to loss of consciousness, time to intubation, required dose of propofol and minimum alveolar isoflurane concentration preventing motor movement (MACNM) were determined. A mixed-model analysis or the Friedman and Mann-Whitney test were used; p-value < 0.05. RESULTS Response to catheter placement did not differ between treatments. Tasipimidine alone reduced the propofol dose by 30%. Addition of methadone or methadone and dexmedetomidine reduced the propofol dose by 48% and 50%, respectively. Isoflurane MACNM was reduced by 19% in tasipimidine-medicated dogs, whereas in combination with methadone or methadone and dexmedetomidine, isoflurane MACNM was reduced by 35%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE An anxiolytic dose of tasipimidine induced mild signs of sedation in dogs and reduced propofol and isoflurane requirements to induce and maintain anaesthesia, which needs to be considered in an anaesthetic plan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate cardiovascular effects of oral tasipimidine on propofol-isoflurane anaesthesia with or without methadone and dexmedetomidine at equianaesthetic levels. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, placebo-controlled, blinded, experimental trial. ANIMALS A group of seven adult Beagle dogs weighing (mean ± standard deviation) 12.4 ± 2.6 kg and a mean age of 20.6 ± 1 months. METHODS The dogs underwent four treatments 60 minutes before induction of anaesthesia with propofol. PP: placebo orally and placebo (NaCl 0.9%) intravenously (IV); TP: tasipimidine 30 μg kg-1 orally and placebo IV; TMP: tasipimidine 30 μg kg-1 orally and methadone 0.2 mg kg-1 IV; and TMPD: tasipimidine 30 μg kg-1 orally with methadone 0.2 mg kg-1 and dexmedetomidine 1 μg kg-1 IV followed by 1 μg kg-1 hour-1. Isoflurane in oxygen was maintained for 120 minutes at 1.2 individual minimum alveolar concentration preventing motor movement. Cardiac output (CO), tissue blood flow (tbf), tissue oxygen saturation (stO2) and relative haemoglobin content were determined. Arterial and mixed venous blood gases, arterial and pulmonary artery pressures and heart rate (HR) were measured at baseline; 60 minutes after oral premedication; 5 minutes after IV premedication; 15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after propofol injection; and 30 minutes after switching the vaporiser off. Data were analysed by two-way anova for repeated measures; p < 0.05. RESULTS Tasipimidine induced a significant 20-30% reduction in HR and CO with decreases in MAP (10-15%), tbf (40%) and stO2 (43%). Blood pressure and oxygenation variables were mainly influenced by propofol-isoflurane-oxygen anaesthesia, preceded by short-lived alterations related to IV methadone and dexmedetomidine. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Tasipimidine induced mild to moderate cardiovascular depression. It can be incorporated into a common anaesthetic protocol without detrimental effects in healthy dogs, when anaesthetics are administered to effect and cardiorespiratory function is monitored.

Abstract
Surgical tissue trauma stimulates an inflammatory response resulting in increased levels of cytokines which could contribute to acute kidney injury (AKI). It is not clear if anesthetic modality affects this response. We aimed to investigate the role of anesthesia in a healthy surgical population on the inflammatory response and the correlation to plasma creatinine. This study is a post hoc analysis of a published randomized clinical trial. We analyzed plasma from patients who underwent elective spinal surgery randomized to either total intravenous propofol anesthesia (n = 12) or sevoflurane anesthesia (n = 10). The plasma samples were collected before anesthesia, during anesthesia, and 1 h after surgery. Plasma cytokine levels after surgery were analyzed for correlations with duration of surgical insult and change in plasma creatinine concentration. The cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) was increased after surgery compared with preoperatively. IL-6 was higher in the sevoflurane group than the propofol group after surgery. No patient developed AKI, but plasma creatinine was increased postoperatively in the sevoflurane group. There was a significant association between surgical time and plasma IL-6 postoperatively. No significant correlation between change in plasma creatinine and IL-6 was detected. The cytokines IL-4, IL-13, Eotaxin, Interferon γ-Induced Protein 10 (IP-10), Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF), Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1β (MIP-1β), and Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein 1 (MCP-1) were lower postoperatively than before surgery independent of anesthetic modality. This post hoc analysis revealed that plasma IL-6 was increased after surgery and more so in the sevoflurane group than the propofol group. Postoperative plasma IL-6 concentration was associated with surgical time.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Sevoflurane is a commonly used inhalational anaesthetic in clinics. Prolonged exposure to sevoflurane can induce significant changes in lipid metabolism and neuronal damage in the developing brain. However, the effect of exposure of pregnant rats to clinical doses of sevoflurane remains unclear. Materials and Methods: Twenty-eight pregnant rats were randomly and equally divided into sevoflurane exposure (S) group, control (C) and a blank group at gestational day (G) 18; Rats in S group received 2% sevoflurane with 98% oxygen for 6 h in an anesthetizing chamber, while C group received 100% oxygen at an identical flow rate for 6 h in an identical chamber. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), ultra performance liquid chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC/TOF-MS) and MetaboAnalyst were used to analysis acquire metabolomics profiles, and immunohistochemical changes of neuronalapoptosis in hippocampus and cortex of neonatal rats were also analyzed. Results: This study aimed to explore lipidomics and transcriptomics changes related to 2% sevoflurane exposure for 6 h in the developing brains of newborn offspring rats. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC/TOF-MS) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analyses were used to acquire metabolomics and transcriptomics profiles. We used RNA-seq to analyse the expression of the coding and non-coding transcripts in neural cells of the cerebral cortex. No significant differences in arterial oxygen tension (PaO2), arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2), or arterial blood gas were found between the groups. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of retention times was <1.53%, and the RSDs of peak areas ranged from 2.13% to 8.51%. Base peak chromatogram (BPC) profiles showed no differences between the groups. We evaluated the partial least square-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) model. In negative ion mode, R2X was over 70%, R2Y was over 93%, and Q2 (cum) was over 80%. Cell apoptosis was not remarkably enhanced by TUNEL and haematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining in the sevoflurane-exposed group compared to the control group (p > 0.05). Glycerophospholipid (GP) and sphingolipid metabolism disturbances might adversely influence neurodevelopment in offspring. The expression of mRNAs (Vcan gene, related to neuronal development, function and repair) of the sevoflurane group was significantly increased in the differential genes by qRT-PCR verification. Conclusions: GP and sphingolipid metabolism homeostasis may be potential therapeutic approaches against inhalational anaesthetic-induced neurodegenerative disorders. Meanwhile, sevoflurane-induced Vcan changes indicated some lipidomic and transcriptomic changes, even if neural cell apoptosis was not significantly changed in the usual clinical dose of sevoflurane exposure.

Abstract
The superior colliculus (SC) is the midbrain center for integrating visual and multimodal sensory information. Neurons in the SC exhibit direction and orientation selectivity. Recent studies reported that neurons with similar preferences formed clusters in the mouse SC (Ahmadlou and Heimel, 2015; Feinberg and Meister, 2015; de Malmazet et al., 2018; Li et al., 2020). However, it remains controversial as to how these clusters are organized within the SC (Inayat et al., 2015; Chen et al., 2021). Here, we found that different brain states (i.e., awake or anesthetized with isoflurane) changed the selectivity of individual SC neurons and organizations of the neuronal population in both male and female mice. Using two-photon Ca2+ imaging, we examined both individual neuronal responses and the spatial patterns of their population responses. Under isoflurane anesthesia, orientation selectivity increased and a larger number of orientation-selective cells were observed when compared with the awake condition, whereas the proportions of direction-selective cells were similar in both conditions. Furthermore, direction- and orientation-selective cells located at closer positions showed more similar preferences, and cluster-like spatial patterns were enhanced. Inhibitory responses of direction-selective neurons were also reduced under isoflurane anesthesia. Thus, the changes in the spatial organization of response patterns were considered to be because of changes in the balance of excitation and inhibition, with excitation dominance, in the local circuits. These results provide new insights into the possibility that the functional organization of feature selectivity in the brain is affected by brain state.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Recent large-scale recording studies are changing our view of visual maps in the superior colliculus (SC), including findings of cluster-like localizations of direction- and orientation-selective neurons. However, results from several laboratories are conflicting regarding the presence of cluster-like organization. Here, we demonstrated that light isoflurane anesthesia affected the direction- and orientation-tuning properties in the mouse superficial SC and that their cluster-like localization pattern was enhanced by the anesthesia. Furthermore, the effect of anesthesia on direction selectivity appeared to be different in the excitatory and inhibitory populations in the SC. Our results suggest that the functional organization of direction and orientation selectivity might be regulated by the excitation-inhibition balance that depends on the brain state.

Abstract
RATIONALE Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is an inherited disease characterized by fragile skin with painful blistering, which requires lifelong skin and wound care. This case report describes the use of inhaled nitrous oxide (N2O) for procedural pain control at home during wound care in a young man with severe dystrophic EB. To our knowledge, only 1 case was reported by Ingelmo et al in 2017 regarding the use of N2O at home in a 4-year-old-child. To date, no such attempt has been made in adult patients. PATIENT CONCERNS Our patient was a 28-year-old man. Frequent blisters appear spontaneously, and are often preceded by erythema and itching. Patient required daily treatment daily consisting of lancing blisters with a needle and emptying them by compression. DIAGNOSES Severe recessive dystrophic EB diagnosed at the time of delivery. INTERVENTIONS Procedural pain control was managed by the auto-administration of an inhaled N2O and air gas mixture. OUTCOMES Conscious sedation with N2O leads to beneficial effects, such as reduction in dressing duration, acute procedural pain, local antibiotic needing, medication memory, anxiety, anticipatory pain, and fatigue after the dressing session. LESSONS N2O analgesia is safe and effective, resulting in a significant reduction in procedural pain and an improvement in the quality of life of patients and their caregivers.

Abstract
A high number of trauma patients are under the influence of alcohol. Since many of them need immediate surgical procedures, it is imperative to be aware of the interaction of alcohol with general anesthesia. To counter challenges that arise from clinical studies, we designed an animal experiment in which 48 adult Wistar rats either received 1 g · kg-1 ethanol, 2 g · kg-1 ethanol or placebo via intraperitoneal application. Subsequently, they were anesthetized with an individual concentration of sevoflurane. The minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of the different groups was assessed using Dixon's up-and-down design and isotonic regression methods. The bootstrap estimate of the MAC of sevoflurane in the placebo group was 2.24 vol% (95% CI 1.97-2.94 vol%). In the low dose ethanol group, the bootstrap estimate was 1.65 vol% (95% CI 1.40-1.98 vol%), and in the high dose ethanol group, it was 1.08 vol% (95% CI 0.73-1.42 vol%). We therefore report that intraperitoneal application of 1 g · kg-1 or 2 g · kg-1 ethanol both resulted in a significant reduction of the MAC of sevoflurane in adult Wistar rats: by 26.3% and 51.8% respectively as compared to placebo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arousal and awareness are two important components of consciousness states. Functional neuroimaging has furthered our understanding of cortical and thalamocortical mechanisms of awareness. Investigating the relationship between subcortical functional connectivity and arousal has been challenging owing to the relatively small size of brainstem structures and thalamic nuclei, and their depth in the brain. METHODS Resting state functional MRI scans of 72 healthy volunteers were acquired before, during, 1 h after, and 1 day after sevoflurane general anaesthesia. Functional connectivity of subcortical regions of interest vs whole brain and homotopic functional connectivity for assessment of left-right symmetry analyses of both cortical and subcortical regions of interest were performed. Both analyses used high resolution atlases generated from deep brain stimulation applications. RESULTS Functional connectivity in subcortical loci within the thalamus and of the ascending reticular activating system was sharply restricted under anaesthesia, featuring a general lateralisation of connectivity. Similarly, left-right homology was sharply reduced under anaesthesia. Subcortical bilateral functional connectivity was not fully restored after emergence from anaesthesia, although greater restoration was seen between ascending reticular activating system loci and specific thalamic nuclei thought to be involved in promoting and maintaining arousal. Functional connectivity was fully restored to baseline by the following day. CONCLUSIONS Functional connectivity in the subcortex is sharply restricted and lateralised under general anaesthesia. This restriction may play a part in loss and return of consciousness. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT02275026.

Abstract
Purpose Alterations in brain glucose metabolism detected by 2-deoxy-2-[18F]-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) may serve as an early predictive biomarker and treatment target for epileptogenesis. Here, we aimed to investigate changes in cerebral glucose metabolism before induction of epileptogenesis, during epileptogenesis as well as during chronic epilepsy. As anesthesia is usually unavoidable for preclinical PET imaging and influences the distribution of the radiotracer, four different protocols were compared. Procedures We investigated 18F-FDG uptake phase in conscious rats followed by a static scan as well as dynamic scans under continuous isoflurane, medetomidine-midazolam-fentanyl (MMF), or propofol anesthesia. Furthermore, we applied different analysis approaches: atlas-based regional analysis, statistical parametric mapping, and kinetic analysis. Results At baseline and compared to uptake in conscious rats, isoflurane and propofol anesthesia resulted in decreased cortical 18F-FDG uptake while MMF anesthesia led to a globally decreased tracer uptake. During epileptogenesis, MMF anesthesia was clearly best distinctive for visualization of prominently increased glucometabolism in epilepsy-related brain areas. Kinetic modeling further increased sensitivity, particularly for continuous isoflurane anesthesia. During chronic epilepsy, hypometabolism affecting more or less the whole brain was detectable with all protocols. Conclusion This study reveals evaluation of anesthesia protocols for preclinical 18F-FDG PET imaging as a critical step in the study design. Together with an appropriate data analysis workflow, the chosen anesthesia protocol may uncover otherwise concealed disease-associated regional glucometabolic changes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteosarcoma is one of the most prominent bone cancers which has a predominant occurrence in children and adolescents. This study is focused on determining the effects of treatment of gas anesthetics on invasion, metastasis, and chemosensitivity in the progression of osteosarcoma cells. Material and Methods. The biological effects of the common gas anesthetics-desflurane, isoflurane, and sevoflurane-on osteosarcoma cells were studied and compared. The biological assays were performed for analysis of cell migration and proliferation. RESULTS Isoflurane and sevoflurane have shown significant inhibition in the osteosarcoma cells at clinically relevant concentrations. Desflurane has shown less potent action on cell migration and inhibition. All three gas anesthetics have shown inhibition in cell proliferation. The effective antiproliferative action was at a clinically significant dose. At low millimolar concentrations, cell apoptosis was moderately affected. Drug combination analysis with chemotherapeutic drugs showed relevant inhibition in cell migration. All three agents showed significant augmentation of chemotherapeutic drugs in suppression and inhibition of inducing apoptosis. The antimigration action is likely to affect the PI3K/AKT pathway and IGF-1. CONCLUSION The study demonstrates the proposed mechanisms of gas anesthetics and their differential effects on osteosarcoma cells and their survival, migration, growth, and chemosensitivity.

Abstract
Isoflurane (ISO) is a widely used inhalation anesthetic in experiments with rodents and humans during surgery. Though ISO has not been reported to impart long-lasting side effects, it is unknown if ISO can influence gene regulation in certain tissues, including the heart. Such changes could have important implications for use of this anesthetic in patients susceptible to heart failure/other cardiac abnormalities. To test if ISO could alter gene regulation/expression in heart tissues, and if such changes were reversible, prolonged, or late onset with time, SHR (spontaneously hypertensive) rats were exposed by intratracheal inhalation to a 97.5% air/2.5% ISO mixture on two consecutive days (2 hr/d). Control rats breathed filtered air only. On Days 1, 30, 240, and 360 post-exposure, rat hearts were collected and total RNA was extracted from the left ventricle for global gene expression analysis. The data revealed differentially-expressed genes (DEG) in response to ISO (compared to naïve control) at all post-exposure timepoints. The data showed acute ISO exposures led to DEG associated with wounding, local immune function, inflammation, and circadian rhythm regulation at Days 1 and 30; these effects dissipated by Day 240. There were other significantly-increased DEG induced by ISO at Day 360; these included changes in expression of genes associated with cell signaling, differentiation, and migration, extracellular matrix organization, cell-substrate adhesion, heart development, and blood pressure regulation. Examination of consistent DEG at Days 240 and 360 indicated late onset DEG reflecting potential long-lasting effects from ISO; these included DEG associated with oxidative phosphorylation, ribosome, angiogenesis, mitochondrial translation elongation, and focal adhesion. Together, the data show acute repeated ISO exposures could impart variable effects on gene expression/regulation in the heart. While some alterations self-resolved, others appeared to be long-lasting or late onset. Whether such changes occur in all rat models or in humans remains to be investigated.

Abstract
Introduction The number of elderly patients undergoing major surgery is rapidly increasing. They are particularly at risk of developing postoperative neurocognitive disorders (NCD). Earlier studies suggested that processed electroencephalographic (EEG) monitors may reduce the incidence of postoperative NCD. However, none of these studies controlled for intraoperative nociception levels or personalized blood pressure targets. Their results remain unclear if the reduction in the incidence of postoperative NCD relates to avoidance of any electroencephalographic pattern suggesting excessive anesthesia depth. Objective The objective of this trial is to investigate–in patients ≥ 70 years old undergoing major non-cardiac surgery–the effect of EEG-guided anesthesia on postoperative NCD while controlling for intraoperative nociception, personalized blood pressure targets, and using detailed information provided by the EEG monitor (including burst suppression ratio, density spectral array, and raw EEG waveform). Material and methods This prospective, randomized, controlled trial will be conducted in a single Canadian university hospital. Patients ≥ 70 years old undergoing elective major non-cardiac surgery will be included in the trial. The administration of sevoflurane will be adjusted to maintain a BIS index value between 40 and 60, to keep a Suppression Ratio (SR) at 0%, to keep a direct EEG display without any suppression time and a spectrogram with most of the EEG wave frequency within the alpha, theta, and delta frequencies in the EEG-guided group. In the control group, sevoflurane will be administered to achieve an age-adjusted minimum alveolar concentration of [0.8–1.2]. In both groups, a nociception monitor will guide intraoperative opioid administration, individual blood pressure targets will be used, and cerebral oximetry used to tailor intraoperative hemodynamic management. The primary endpoint will be the incidence of NCD at postoperative day 1, as evaluated by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Secondary endpoints will include the incidence of postoperative NCD at different time points and the evaluation of cognitive trajectories up to 90 days after surgery among EEG-guided and control groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sevoflurane (Sev) is a rapidly acting, potent inhalation anesthetic with rapid uptake and elimination. But many studies have shown that Sev could result in cognition dysfunction in adolescent or aging patients. Now, therapeutic targeting with IL-17A antibody has shown a promising effect on Sev-induced cognition impairment. In the study we report that P300 inhibition could act as an alternative approach to decrease IL-17A activity. METHODS SHSY5Y cells were treated with Sev and cell apoptosis was evaluated by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. The expression of P300 and IL-17A were assessed by Western blotting. Water maze tests were conducted in order to assess the cognitive function. RESULTS We found that P300 and IL-17A were activated in SHSY5Y cells treated with Sev. P300 inhibitor C646 could reduce the apoptosis induced by Sev through decreasing IL-17A avtivity. Furthermore, IL-17A expression was upregulated after neurons were transfected with P300 expression plasmid and IL-17A expression was downregulated after neurons were incubated with P300 inhibitor C646. P300 overexpression could upregulate the promoter activity of IL-17A. Finally, in a rat model treated with Sev, we also found C646 to significantly improve the cognition impairment through the IL-17A pathway. CONCLUSIONS These data show that P300 will potentially be a new drug target for the therapy of cognition impairment caused by Sev.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infant anaesthesia causes acute brain cell apoptosis, and later in life cognitive deficits and behavioural alterations, in non-human primates (NHPs). Various brain injuries and neurodegenerative conditions are characterised by chronic astrocyte activation (astrogliosis). Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), an astrocyte-specific protein, increases during astrogliosis and remains elevated after an injury. Whether infant anaesthesia is associated with a sustained increase in GFAP is unknown. We hypothesised that GFAP is increased in specific brain areas of NHPs 2 yr after infant anaesthesia, consistent with prior injury. METHODS Eight 6-day-old NHPs per group were exposed to 5 h isoflurane once (1×) or three times (3×), or to room air as a control (Ctr). Two years after exposure, their brains were assessed for GFAP density changes in the primary visual cortex (V1), perirhinal cortex (PRC), hippocampal subiculum, amygdala, and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). We also assessed concomitant microglia activation and hippocampal neurogenesis. RESULTS Compared with controls, GFAP densities in V1 were increased in exposed groups (Ctr: 0.208 [0.085-0.427], 1×: 0.313 [0.108-0.533], 3×: 0.389 [0.262-0.652]), whereas the density of activated microglia was unchanged. In addition, GFAP densities were increased in the 3× group in the PRC and the subiculum, and in both exposure groups in the amygdala, but there was no increase in the OFC. There were no differences in hippocampal neurogenesis among groups. CONCLUSIONS Two years after infant anaesthesia, NHPs show increased GFAP without concomitant microglia activation in specific brain areas. These long-lasting structural changes in the brain caused by infant anaesthesia exposure may be associated with functional alterations at this age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The frequency coupling characteristics in electroencephalogram (EEG) induced by anesthetics have been well studied in adults, but the investigation of the age-dependent cross frequency coupling features from children to adults is still lacking. METHODS We analyzed EEG signals recorded from pediatric to adult patients (n = 131), separated into six age groups: <1 year (n = 15), 1-3 years (n = 23), 3-6 years (n = 19), 6-12 years (n = 18), 12-18 years (n = 16), and 18-45 years (n = 40). Age related EEG power and cross frequency coupling analysis (phase amplitude coupling (PAC) and quadratic phase coupling) of data from maintenance of a surgical state of anesthesia (MOSSA) was conducted. Also, for patients of ages less than 6 years, we analyzed the performance of cross frequency coupling derived indices in distinguishing the states of wakefulness, MOSSA, and recovery of consciousness (ROC). RESULTS (1) During MOSSA, EEG power substantially increased with age from infancy to 3-6 years then decreased with age in the theta-gamma frequency bands. The infant group (<1 year) had the highest slow oscillation (SO) power among all age groups. (2) The distinct PAC pattern is absent in patients less than 1 year of age both in SO-alpha and delta-alpha frequency band coupling during propofol induced unconsciousness. The modulation index between delta and alpha oscillations in MOSSA increased with age. (3) Wavelet bicoherence derived indices reach their peaks in the 3-6 years group and then decrease with age growth. (4) The Diag_En index (normalized entropy of the diagonal bicoherence entries of the bicoherence matrix) performed the best at distinguishing different states for ages less than 6 years (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The combination of propofol induction and sevoflurane maintenance exhibited age-dependent EEG power spectra, PAC, and bicoherence, likely related to brain development. These observations suggest new rules for infant and child brain state monitoring during general anesthesia are needed.

Abstract
Anesthetic-induced toxicity in early life may lead to risk of cognitive decline at later ages. Notably, multiple exposures to isoflurane (ISO) cause acute apoptotic cell death in the developing brain and long-term cognitive dysfunction. This study is the first to investigate whether levosimendan (LVS), known for its protective myocardial properties, can prevent anesthesia-induced apoptotic response in brain cells and learning and memory impairment. Postnatal day (P)7 Wistar albino pups were randomly assigned to groups consisting of an equal number of males and females in this laboratory investigation. We treated rats with LVS (0.8 mg/kg/day) intranasally 30 min before each ISO exposure (1.5%, 3 h) at P7+9+11. We selected DMSO as the drug vehicle. Also, the control group at P7+9+11 received 50% O2 for 3 h instead of ISO. Neuroprotective activity of LVS against ISO-induced cognitive dysfunction was evaluated by Morris water maze. Expression of apoptotic-related proteins was detected in the whole brain using western blot. LVS pretreatment significantly prevented anesthesia-induced deficit in spatial learning (at P28-32) and memory (at P33, P60, and P90). No sex-dependent difference occurred on any day of the training and probe trial. Intranasal LVS was also found to significantly prevent the ISO-induced apoptosis by reducing Bax and cleaved caspase-3, and by increasing Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL. Our findings support pretreatment with intranasal LVS application as a simple strategy in daily clinical practice in pediatric anesthesia to protect infants and children from the risk of general anesthesia-induced cell death and cognitive declines.

Abstract
Background Current intensive care unit (ICU) sedation guidelines recommend strategies using non-benzodiazepine sedatives. This survey was undertaken to explore inhaled ICU sedation practice in France. Methods In this national survey, medical directors of French adult ICUs were contacted by phone or email between July and August 2019. ICU medical directors were questioned about the characteristics of their department, their knowledge on inhaled sedation, and practical aspects of inhaled sedation use in their department. Results Among the 374 ICUs contacted, 187 provided responses (50%). Most ICU directors (73%) knew about the use of inhaled ICU sedation and 21% used inhaled sedation in their unit, mostly with the Anaesthetic Conserving Device (AnaConDa, Sedana Medical). Most respondents had used volatile agents for sedation for <5 years (63%) and in <20 patients per year (75%), with their main indications being: failure of intravenous sedation, severe asthma or bronchial obstruction, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Sevoflurane and isoflurane were mainly used (88% and 20%, respectively). The main reasons for not using inhaled ICU sedation were: “device not available” (40%), “lack of medical interest” (37%), “lack of familiarity or knowledge about the technique” (35%) and “elevated cost” (21%). Most respondents (80%) were overall satisfied with the use of inhaled sedation. Almost 75% stated that inhaled sedation was a seducing alternative to intravenous sedation. Conclusion This survey highlights the widespread knowledge about inhaled ICU sedation in France but shows its limited use to date. Differences in education and knowledge, as well as the recent and relatively scarce literature on the use of volatile agents in the ICU, might explain the diverse practices that were observed. The low rate of mild adverse effects, as perceived by respondents, and the users’ satisfaction, are promising for this potentially important tool for ICU sedation.

Abstract
Background Inhaled methoxyflurane for acute pain relief has demonstrated an analgesic effect superior to placebo. Data comparing methoxyflurane to an opioid are needed. The aim of this study was to determine the equi-analgesic doses of inhaled methoxyflurane vs i.v. fentanyl. Both drugs have an onset within minutes and an analgesic effect of 20–30 min. Methods Twelve subjects were included in a randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled crossover study with four treatments: placebo (NaCl 0.9%), fentanyl 25 μg i.v., fentanyl 50 μg i.v., or inhaled methoxyflurane 3 ml. The subjects reported pain intensity using the verbal numeric rating scale (VNRS) from 0 to 10 during the cold pressor test (CPT). The CPT was performed before (CPT 1), 5 min (CPT 2), and 20 min (CPT 3) after drug administration. Results Inhaled methoxyflurane and fentanyl 25 μg reduced VNRS scores significantly compared with placebo at CPT 2 (–1.14 [estimated difference in VNRS between treatment groups with 95% confidence interval {CI}: –1.50 to –0.78]; –1.15 [95% CI: –1.51 to –0.79]; both P<0.001) and CPT 3 (–0.60 [95% CI: –0.96 to –0.24]; –0.84 [95% CI: –1.20 to –0.47]; both P<0.001). There were no significant differences between the two drugs. Methoxyflurane had significantly higher VNRS scores than fentanyl 50 μg at CPT 2 (0.90 [95% CI: 0.54–1.26]; P<0.001) and CPT 3 (0.57 [95% CI: 0.21–0.94]; P<0.001). Conclusions Inhaled methoxyflurane 3 ml was equi-analgesic to fentanyl 25 μg i.v. at CPT 2. Both resulted in significantly less pain than placebo. Fentanyl 50 μg i.v. demonstrated analgesia superior to methoxyflurane. Clinical trial registration NCT03894800

Abstract
An association between animals and volatile anaesthetic requirements has been shown; however, evidence related to the postoperative outcome of human patients is lacking. Our aim was to investigate whether there is a difference in the requirement for sevoflurane among people undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.We observed 390 adult patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery with an American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status of I or II with an expected surgery duration of > 2 hours. We used the bispectral index (BIS) to guide the regulation of end-tidal sevoflurane concentration (ETsevo). The mean ETsevo from 20 minutes after endotracheal intubation to 2 hours after the start of surgery was calculated for all patients. Differential sevoflurane requirements were identified according to ETsevo. The BIS, ETsevo, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, dose of sufentanil and cisatracurium, tracheal extubation time, incidence of intraoperative awareness, and incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting were compared between patients with a low requirement for sevoflurane (group L) and patients with a high requirement for sevoflurane (group H).The mean ETsevo of the 390 patients was 1.55% ± 0.26%. Based on our definition, patients with an ETsevo of < 1.29% were allocated to the low requirement group (group L; n = 69), while patients with an ETsevo of > 1.81% were allocated to the high requirement group (group H; n = 78). The ETsevo of group L was significantly lower than the ETsevo of group H (1.29% ± 0.014% vs 1.82% ± 0.017%, P < .001). There was no significant difference in the ETsevo, BIS, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, dose of sufentanil and cisatracurium, tracheal extubation time, incidence of intraoperative awareness, and incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. The tracheal extubation time in the L group was significantly shorter than that in the H group. No intraoperative awareness occurred.There was a significant difference in the requirement for sevoflurane in adult patients. The tracheal extubation time in group L was significantly shorter than that in group H.

Abstract
Despite major advances, there remains a need for novel anesthetic drugs or drug combinations with improved efficacy and safety profiles. Here, we show that inhibition of cAMP-phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), while not inducing anesthesia by itself, potently enhances the anesthetic effects of Isoflurane in mice. Treatment with several distinct PAN-PDE4 inhibitors, including Rolipram, Piclamilast, Roflumilast, and RS25344, significantly delayed the time-to-righting after Isoflurane anesthesia. Conversely, treatment with a PDE3 inhibitor, Cilostamide, or treatment with the potent, but non-brain-penetrant PDE4 inhibitor YM976, had no effect. These findings suggest that potentiation of Isoflurane hypnosis is a class effect of brain-penetrant PDE4 inhibitors, and that they act by synergizing with Isoflurane in inhibiting neuronal activity. The PDE4 family comprises four PDE4 subtypes, PDE4A to PDE4D. Genetic deletion of any of the four PDE4 subtypes in mice did not affect Isoflurane anesthesia per se. However, PDE4D knockout mice are largely protected from the effect of pharmacologic PDE4 inhibition, suggesting that PDE4D is the predominant, but not the sole PDE4 subtype involved in potentiating Isoflurane anesthesia. Pretreatment with Naloxone or Propranolol alleviated the potentiating effect of PDE4 inhibition, implicating opioid- and β-adrenoceptor signaling in mediating PDE4 inhibitor-induced augmentation of Isoflurane anesthesia. Conversely, stimulation or blockade of α1-adrenergic, α2-adrenergic or serotonergic signaling did not affect the potentiation of Isoflurane hypnosis by PDE4 inhibition. We further show that pretreatment with a PDE4 inhibitor boosts the delivery of bacteria into the lungs of mice after intranasal infection under Isoflurane, thus providing a first example that PDE4 inhibitor-induced potentiation of Isoflurane anesthesia can critically impact animal models and must be considered as a factor in experimental design. Our findings suggest that PDE4/PDE4D inhibition may serve as a tool to delineate the exact molecular mechanisms of Isoflurane anesthesia, which remain poorly understood, and may potentially be exploited to reduce the clinical doses of Isoflurane required to maintain hypnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In anesthesia, additive drug interactions are used for reducing dose and dose-dependent side-effects. The combination of propofol with volatile anesthetics is rather unusual but might have advantages compared to the single use regarding PONV, time to extubation, movement during surgery and postoperative pain perception. METHODS We searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and CENTRAL for relevant studies comparing combined intravenous volatile anesthesia with total intravenous or balanced anesthesia. The studies identified were summarized in a meta-analysis with the standardized mean difference or risk ratio as the effect size. RESULTS Ten studies provided data. The risk for PONV in the recovery room was significantly reduced for a combined anesthesia compared to a balanced anesthesia (RR 0.657, CI 0.502-0.860, p-value 0.002). There was no significant difference detected either in the time to extubation or in pain perception. Movement during surgery was significantly reduced for a combined compared to a total intravenous anesthesia (RR 0.241, CI 0.135-0.428, p-value 0.000). CONCLUSIONS The combination of propofol and volatiles may have some advantages in the early occurrence of PONV compared to a balanced anesthesia. To sufficiently evaluate potential advantages of a combination of volatiles and propofol further high-quality trials are needed. TRIAL REGISTRATION PROSPERO CRD42019126627 .

Abstract
The Gas Man simulation software provides an opportunity to teach, understand and examine the pharmacokinetics of volatile anesthetics. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of a cardiac output and alveolar ventilation matched Gas Man model and to compare its predictive performance with the standard pharmacokinetic model using patient data.Therefore, patient data from volatile anesthesia were successively compared to simulated administration of desflurane and sevoflurane for the standard and a parameter-matched simulation model with modified alveolar ventilation and cardiac output. We calculated the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) between measured and calculated induction, maintenance and elimination and the expiratory decrement times during emergence and recovery for the standard and the parameter-matched model.During induction, RMSDs for the standard Gas Man simulation model were higher than for the parameter-matched Gas Man simulation model [induction (desflurane), standard: 1.8 (0.4) % Atm, parameter-matched: 0.9 (0.5) % Atm., P = .001; induction (sevoflurane), standard: 1.2 (0.9) % Atm, parameter-matched: 0.4 (0.4) % Atm, P = .029]. During elimination, RMSDs for the standard Gas Man simulation model were higher than for the parameter-matched Gas Man simulation model [elimination (desflurane), standard: 0.7 (0.6) % Atm, parameter-matched: 0.2 (0.2) % Atm, P = .001; elimination (sevoflurane), standard: 0.7 (0.5) % Atm, parameter-matched: 0.2 (0.2) % Atm, P = .008]. The RMSDs during the maintenance of anesthesia and the expiratory decrement times during emergence and recovery showed no significant differences between the patient and simulated data for both simulation models.Gas Man simulation software predicts expiratory concentrations of desflurane and sevoflurane in humans with good accuracy, especially when compared to models for intravenous anesthetics. Enhancing the standard model by ventilation and hemodynamic input variables increases the predictive performance of the simulation model. In most patients and clinical scenarios, the predictive performance of the standard Gas Man simulation model will be high enough to estimate pharmacokinetics of desflurane and sevoflurane with appropriate accuracy.

To evaluate the utility of low-concentration nitrous oxide (N2O) anesthesia in ptosis surgeryThis study was a retrospective consecutive case series that included 54 successive patients with blepharoptosis who underwent bilateral levator aponeurosis advancement and on whom skin resection performed by the same surgeon between August 2016 and July 2017. Among these patients, 27 were operated with a local anesthesia injection (air group) and 27 with a local anesthesia injection and low-concentration N2O anesthesia (N2O group). All N2O cases used a total of 6 L of gas comprising 70% oxygen and 30% N2O. Preoperative and postoperative blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) and intraoperative pain, anxiety, nausea, and memory were measured immediately after surgery using visual analog scale score (VASS). Additionally, perioperative side effects were examined.There was no significant difference in age, sex, and preoperative and postoperative margin reflex distance (MRD) between the 2 groups (all P > .05). The intraoperative mean peripheral oxygen saturation was significantly higher (97.5% ± 1.6% vs 99.5% ± .6%, P < .001), intraoperative HR was significantly lower (78.2 ± 12.8 vs 70.7 ± 11.6 bpm, P = .02), and operation time was significantly shorter (33.1 ± 8.1 vs 29.4 ± 10.3 minutes, P = .03) in the N2O group than in the air group.Difference between intraoperative and preoperative systolic BP (BPs) (+15.8 ± 18.0 vs + 3.1 ± 21.7 mm Hg, P = .02), diastolic BP (BPd) (+7.0 ± 17.4 vs -2.3 ± 13.6 mm Hg, P = .04), and HR (3.2 ± 8.5 vs -3.9 ± 9.4 bpm, P = .01) was significantly lower in the N2O group than in the air group.VASS of intraoperative pain was significantly lower in the N2O group than in the air group (49.5 ± 24.7 vs 22.6 ± 14.9, P < .001), whereas intraoperative anxiety and memory did not present significant differences between the groups (P = .09 and P = .45, respectively). Intraoperative nausea score was 0 for all cases in both groups. There was no other side effect.Ptosis surgery with anesthesia using 30% N2O may effectively suppress intraoperative BP and HR along with pain and shorten the operation time without side effects such as nausea.

Abstract
Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) and ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) occur in up to 30% of patients undergoing lung transplantation and may impact on the clinical outcome. Several strategies for the prevention and treatment of PGD have been proposed, but with limited use in clinical practice. In this study, we investigate the potential application of sevoflurane (SEV) preconditioning to mitigate IRI after lung transplantation. The study included two groups of swines (preconditioned and not preconditioned with SEV) undergoing left lung transplantation after 24-hour of cold ischemia. Recipients' data was collected for 6 hours after reperfusion. Outcome analysis included assessment of ventilatory, hemodynamic, and hemogasanalytic parameters, evaluation of cellularity and cytokines in BAL samples, and histological analysis of tissue samples. Hemogasanalytic, hemodynamic, and respiratory parameters were significantly favorable, and the histological score showed less inflammatory and fibrotic injury in animals receiving SEV treatment. BAL cellular and cytokine profiling showed an anti-inflammatory pattern in animals receiving SEV compared to controls. In a swine model of lung transplantation after prolonged cold ischemia, SEV showed to mitigate the adverse effects of ischemia/reperfusion and to improve animal survival. Given the low cost and easy applicability, the administration of SEV in lung donors may be more extensively explored in clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We compared early recovery outcomes between living kidney donors who received total intravenous (IV) propofol versus inhalational desflurane during hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy. DESIGN A single-centre, prospective randomised controlled trial. SETTING University hospital. PARTICIPANTS Study participants were enrolled between October 2019 and February 2020. A total of 80 living donors were randomly assigned to an intravenous propofol group (n=40) or a desflurane group (n=40). INTERVENTION Propofol group received intravenous propofol and desflurane group received desflurane, as a maintenance anaesthetic. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES The quality of postoperative functional recovery was primarily assessed using the Korean version of the Quality of Recovery-40 (QoR-40K) questionnaire on postoperative day 1. Secondarily, ambulation, pain score, rescue analgesics, complications and total hospital stay were assessed postoperatively. RESULTS Our study population included 35 males and 45 females. The mean age was 46±13 years. The global QoR-40K score (161 (154-173) vs 152 (136-161) points, respectively, p=0.001) and all five subdimension scores (physical comfort, 49 (45-53) vs 45 (42-48) points, respectively, p=0.003; emotional state, 39 (37-41) vs 37 (33-41) points, respectively, p=0.005; psychological support, 30 (26-34) vs 28 (26-32) points, respectively, p=0.04; physical independence, 16 (11-18) vs 12 (8-14) points, respectively, p=0.004; and pain, 31 (28-33) vs 29 (25-31) points, respectively, p=0.021) were significantly higher in the intravenous propofol group than the desflurane group. The early ambulation success rate and numbers of early and total steps were higher, but the incidence of nausea/vomiting was lower, in the intravenous propofol group than the desflurane group. The total hospital stay after surgery was shorter in the intravenous propofol group than the desflurane group. CONCLUSIONS Intravenous propofol may enhance the quality of postoperative recovery in comparison to desflurane in living kidney donors. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER KCT0004365.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptibility is an inherited condition, diagnosed either by the presence of a pathogenic genetic variant or by in vitro caffeine-halothane contracture testing. Through a multi-dimensional approach, we describe the implications of discordance between genetic and in vitro test results in a patient with a family history of possible MH. METHODS The patient, whose brother had a possible MH reaction, underwent the caffeine-halothane contracture test (CHCT) according to the North American MH Group protocol. Screening of the complete RYR1 and CACNA1S transcripts was done using Sanger sequencing. Additional functional analyses included skinned myofibre calcium-induced calcium release sensitivity, calcium signalling assays in cultured myotubes, and in silico evaluation of the effect of any genetic variants on their chemical environment. RESULTS The patient's CHCT result was negative but she carried an RYR1 variant c.1209C>G, p.Ile403Met, that is listed as pathogenic by the European Malignant Hyperthermia Group. Functional tests indicated a gain-of-function effect with a weak impact, and the variant was predicted to affect the folding stability of the 3D structure of the RyR1 protein. Based on American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics/Association of Molecular Pathology guidelines, this variant would be characterised as a variant of uncertain significance. CONCLUSIONS Available data do not confirm or exclude an increased risk of MH for this patient. Further research is needed to correlate RyR1 functional assays, including the current gold standard testing for MH susceptibility, with clinical phenotypes. The pathogenicity of genetic variants associated with MH susceptibility should be re-evaluated.

Abstract
Anesthesia with desflurane and remifentanil can be maintained with either fixed or titrated desflurane concentration. We hypothesized that the fixed-gas concentration (FG) method would reduce the number of anesthetic titrations without hypnotic and hemodynamic instability compared to the bispectral index (BIS)-guided (BG) method. Forty-eight patients were randomly allocated to the FG or BG groups. In the FG group, desflurane vaporizer setting was fixed at 1 age-corrected minimum alveolar concentration (MAC). In the BG group, desflurane was titrated to target a BIS level at 50. Remifentanil was titrated to maintain a systolic arterial pressure (SAP) of 120 mmHg in both groups. Our primary endpoint was the hypnotic stability measured by the wobble of BIS in performance analysis, and the secondary endpoints included the wobble of SAP, mean BIS value during surgery, and the number of anesthetic titrations. The BIS in the FG group showed significantly less wobble (3.9 ± 1.1% vs 5.5 ± 1.5%, P <0.001) but lower value (33 ± 6 vs 46 ± 7, P <0.001) than BG group. The wobble of SAP showed no difference between groups [median (inter-quartile range), 5.0 (4.1-7.5)% vs 5.2 (4.2-8.3)%, P = 0.557]. The numbers of anesthetic titrations in the FG group were significantly lower than the BG group (0 ± 0 vs 8 ± 5, P<0.001 for desflurane, 13 ± 13 vs 22 ± 17, P = 0.047 for remifentanil). Less wobble in BIS and reduced anesthetic titration without hemodynamic instability during the FG technique may be practical in balanced anesthesia using desflurane and remifentanil anesthesia. Clinical trial: This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02283866).

Abstract
Currently no drugs are employed clinically to reverse the unconsciousness induced by general anesthetics. Our previous studies showed that caffeine, when given near the end of an anesthesia session, accelerated emergence from isoflurane anesthesia, likely caused by caffeine’s ability to elevate intracellular cAMP levels and to block adenosine receptors. These earlier studies showed that caffeine did not rouse either rats or humans from deep anesthesia (≥ 1 minimum alveolar concentration, MAC). In this current crossover study, we examined whether caffeine reversed the unconsciousness produced by light anesthesia (< 1 MAC) in the continued presence of isoflurane. The primary endpoint of this study was to measure isoflurane levels at the time of recovery of righting reflex, which was a proxy for consciousness. Rats were deeply anesthetized with 2% isoflurane (~1.5 MAC) for 20 minutes. Subsequently, isoflurane was reduced to 1.2% for 10 minutes, then by 0.2% every 10 min; animals were monitored until the recovery of righting reflex occurred, in the continued presence of isoflurane. Respiration rate, heart rate and electroencephalogram (EEG) were monitored. Our results show that caffeine-treated rats recovered their righting reflex at a significantly higher inspired isoflurane concentration, corresponding to light anesthesia, than the same rats treated with saline (control). Respiration rate and heart rate increased initially after caffeine injection but were then unchanged for the rest of the anesthesia session. Deep anesthesia is correlated with burst suppression in EEG recordings. Our data showed that caffeine transiently reduced the burst suppression time produced by deep anesthesia, suggesting that caffeine altered neuronal circuit function but not to a point where it caused arousal. In contrast, under light anesthesia, caffeine shifted the EEG power to high frequency beta and gamma bands. These data suggest that caffeine may represent a clinically viable drug to reverse the unconsciousness produced by light anesthesia.

Abstract
Desflurane is one of the most frequently used inhalational anesthetics in clinical practice. A circadian rhythm phase-shift after general anesthesia with sevoflurane or isoflurane has been reported in mice, but few studies have reported this effect with desflurane. In the present study, we examined the rest/activity rhythm of mice by counting the number of running wheel rotations, and we found that desflurane anesthesia caused a phase shift in the circadian rhythm that was dependent on the time of day of anesthesia. We also found that desflurane anesthesia altered the relative mRNA expression of four major clock genes (Per2, Bmal, Clock, and Cry1) in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). These results are important for elucidating the effects of desflurane on the SCN, which is the master clock for the mammalian circadian rhythm. Further studies on the relationship between anesthesia and circadian rhythm may lead to the prevention and treatment of postoperative complications related to circadian rhythms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volatile anesthetic agents used during surgery have immunomodulatory effects which could affect postoperative outcomes. Recognizing that regulatory T cells (Tregs) plays crucial roles in transplant tolerance and high peripheral blood Tregs associated with stable kidney graft function, knowing which volatile anesthetic agents can induce peripheral blood Tregs increment would have clinical implications. This study aimed to compare effects of desflurane and sevoflurane anesthesia on peripheral blood Tregs induction in patients undergoing living donor kidney transplantation. METHODS A prospective, randomized, double-blind trial in living donor kidney transplant recipients was conducted at a single center, tertiary-care, academic university hospital in Thailand during August 2015 - June 2017. Sixty-six patients were assessed for eligibility and 40 patients who fulfilled the study requirement were equally randomized and allocated to desflurane versus sevoflurane anesthesia during transplant surgery. The primary outcome included absolute changes of peripheral blood CD4+CD25+FoxP3+Tregs which measured by flow cytometry and expressed as the percentage of the total population of CD4+ T lymphocytes at pre-exposure (0-h) and post-exposure (2-h and 24-h) to anesthetic gas. P-value < 0.05 denoted statistical significance. RESULTS Demographic data were comparable between groups. No statistical difference of peripheral blood Tregs between desflurane and sevoflurane groups observed at the baseline pre-exposure (3.6 ± 0.4% vs. 3.1 ± 0.4%; p = 0.371) and 2-h post-exposure (3.0 ± 0.3% vs. 3.5 ± 0.4%; p = 0.319). At 24-h post-exposure, peripheral blood Tregs was significantly higher in desflurane group (5.8 ± 0.5% vs. 4.1 ± 0.3%; p = 0.008). Within group analysis showed patients receiving desflurane, but not sevoflurane, had 2.7% increase in peripheral blood Treg over 24-h period (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION This study provides the clinical trial-based evidence that desflurane induced peripheral blood Tregs increment after 24-h exposure, which could be beneficial in the context of kidney transplantation. Mechanisms of action and clinical advantages of desflurane anesthesia based on Treg immunomodulation should be investigated in the future. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02559297 .

Abstract
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder that results in hyperhomocysteinemia. Elevated homocysteine levels in the blood can cause arterial and venous thrombosis, atherosclerosis, recurrent pregnancy loss, and neurologic symptoms. Emerging research suggests links to other chronic illnesses as well. Anesthetic management of patients with MTHFR deficiency should focus on decreasing the risk of arterial or venous thrombosis and minimizing elevations in homocysteine levels. Thrombosis prevention includes the use of antiembolism compression stockings, intermittent pneumatic compression sleeves, subcutaneous heparin or low-molecular-weight heparin, early ambulation, and adequate hydration. Nitrous oxide is known to inhibit methionine synthase, a vitamin B12-dependent enzyme responsible for the breakdown of homocysteine, resulting in homocysteine elevation, and should be avoided in these patients. Intravenous vitamin B12 infusion before surgery may help decrease homocysteine levels; however, it is not readily available in most operating rooms. Propofol and sevoflurane do not increase homocysteine levels and are considered safe for patients with MTHFR deficiency. This case study describes a 58-year-old man with known MTHFR deficiency and his subsequent uneventful anesthetic care during a total knee replacement.

Abstract
Surgical management of cancer may induce stress and increase the likelihood of cancer metastasis and recurrence. Appropriate surgical and anesthetic techniques may affect the patient's outcome. Although numerous studies have been performed, conflicting results have been obtained regarding the effect of anesthetic techniques on the outcome of patients with cancer. We conducted this study to evaluate the association of anesthetic techniques with overall and recurrence-free survival in patients who had undergone gastric cancer surgery.This retrospective study reviewed the electronic medical records of patients, who had visited our hospital and had been diagnosed with gastric cancer between July 1st, 2006 to June 30th, 2016. Univariate analysis of the potential prognostic factors was performed using the log-rank test for categorical factors, and parameters with a P-value < .05 at the univariate step were included in the multivariate regression analysis. Propensity Score Matching was performed to account for differences in baseline characteristics: propofol or desflurane, in a 1:1 ratio.A total of 408 patients anesthetized with desflurane (218) and propofol (190) were eligible for analysis. After propensity matching, 167 patients remained in each group. The overall mortality rate was significantly higher in the desflurane group (56%) than in the propofol group (34%) during follow-up (P < .001). In addition, a greater percentage of patients in the desflurane group (41%) exhibited postoperative metastasis than those in the propofol group (19%, P < .001).The authors found some association between types of anesthesia used and the long-term prognosis of gastric cancer. Propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia improved survival and reduced the risk of recurrence and metastasis during the 5-year follow-up period after gastric cancer surgery.

Abstract
(1) Background: Emulsified isoflurane (EISO) is a type of intravenous anesthetic. How emulsified isoflurane works in the brain is still unclear. The aim of this study was to explore whether epigenetic mechanisms affect anesthesia and to evaluate the anesthetic effects of emulsified isoflurane in rats. (2) Methods: Rats were randomly divided into four groups (n = 8/group): The tail vein was injected with normal saline 0.1 mL·kg-1·min-1for the control (Con) group, with intralipid for the fat emulsion (FE) group, with EISO at 60 mg·kg-1·min-1 for the high-concentration (HD) group, and 45 mg·kg-1·min-1 for the low-concentration (LD) group. The consciousness state, motor function of limbs, and response to nociceptive stimulus were observed after drug administration. (3) Results: Using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to assess the promoter methylation of ion channel proteins in the cerebral cortex of rats anesthetized by EISO, we demonstrated that the change in the promoters' methylation of the coding genes for gamma-aminobutyric acid A receptor α1 subunit (GABAAα1), N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunit 1 (NMDAR1), and mu opioid receptor 1 (OPRM1) was accompanied by the change in messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and protein expression by these genes. (4) Conclusion: These data suggest that the epigenetic factors' modulation might offer a novel approach to explore the anesthetic mechanism of EISO.

Abstract
Seizures and interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) have been described during sevoflurane. We prospectively estimated their incidence in 54 otherwise neurologically healthy infants by obtaining the full-head video electroencephalogram (EEG). No infants had clinical seizures, but 1 had an electrographic seizure; 3 others had focal IEDs (7.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.1%-17.9%). We detected no differences in demographic or clinical characteristics between normal and abnormal EEG groups. Diffuse slowing was the most common initial EEG change followed by fast (α, β) activity in all head leads. Larger studies with more statistical power are needed to further investigate the hypotheses generated with this research.

Abstract
This study was done to ascertain the optimum fresh gas flow (FGF) offering the best balance between rapid induction and minimal waste in pediatric patients. Forty-five children (weighing 10-20 kg) undergoing elective procedures under general anesthesia were randomly assigned into 3 groups: 0.5 minute ventilation (MV), MV, and S (FGF = 6 L/min). After priming the pediatric closed circuit, anesthesia was induced using a face mask with 8% sevoflurane in 100% oxygen (Draeger Primus Vista 120 anesthesia machine) at FGF-determined MV per group allocation. After loss of eyelash reflex (time 1 [T1]), intravenous cannulation (T2) and laryngeal mask airway (LMA) placement (T3) were done. Total sevoflurane consumed during induction (measured using logbook function) was the primary outcome. The cost of sevoflurane, any reflex movement, tachycardia (heart rate change > 20%), or additional propofol boluses required were also recorded. Sevoflurane consumption (3.8 vs 5.8 vs 9.2 mL) and cost of sevoflurane (104.2 vs 199.4 vs 312.8 rupees) were lowest in group 0.5 MV (P < .001). There was no difference in hemodynamic parameters, movement on cannulation/LMA insertion, and rescue propofol boluses required. For pediatric sevoflurane induction, half the MV-based FGF provided similar anesthetic conditions for LMA insertion with minimum sevoflurane consumption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preexisting factors such as age and cognitive performance can influence the electroencephalogram (EEG) during general anesthesia. Specifically, spectral EEG power is lower in elderly, compared to younger, subjects. Here, the authors investigate age-related changes in EEG architecture in patients undergoing general anesthesia through a detailed examination of spectral and entropic measures. METHODS The authors retrospectively studied 180 frontal EEG recordings from patients undergoing general anesthesia, induced with propofol/fentanyl and maintained by sevoflurane at the Waikato Hospital in Hamilton, New Zealand. The authors calculated power spectral density and normalized power spectral density, the entropic measures approximate and permutation entropy, as well as the beta ratio and spectral entropy as exemplary parameters used in current monitoring systems from segments of EEG obtained before the onset of surgery (i.e., with no noxious stimulation). RESULTS The oldest quartile of patients had significantly lower 1/f characteristics (P < 0.001; area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.84 [0.76 0.92]), indicative of a more uniform distribution of spectral power. Analysis of the normalized power spectral density revealed no significant impact of age on relative alpha (P = 0.693; area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.52 [0.41 0.63]) and a significant but weak effect on relative beta power (P = 0.041; area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.62 [0.52 0.73]). Using entropic parameters, the authors found a significant age-related change toward a more irregular and unpredictable EEG (permutation entropy: P < 0.001, area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.81 [0.71 0.90]; approximate entropy: P < 0.001; area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.76 [0.66 0.85]). With approximate entropy, the authors could also detect an age-induced change in alpha-band activity (P = 0.002; area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.69 [0.60 78]). CONCLUSIONS Like the sleep literature, spectral and entropic EEG features under general anesthesia change with age revealing a shift toward a faster, more irregular, oscillatory composition of the EEG in older patients. Age-related changes in neurophysiological activity may underlie these findings however the contribution of age-related changes in filtering properties or the signal to noise ratio must also be considered. Regardless, most current EEG technology used to guide anesthetic management focus on spectral features, and improvements to these devices might involve integration of entropic features of the raw EEG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volatile anaesthetic agents, especially sevoflurane, could be an alternative for sedating ICU patients. In the operating theatre, volatile anaesthetic agents are monitored using minimal alveolar concentration (MAC). In ICU, MAC may be used to assess sedation level and may replace clinical scale especially when they are unusable. Therefore, we sought to investigate the minimal sevoflurane end-tidal concentration to achieved deep sedation in critical ill patients: MAC-deep sedation (MAC-DS). METHODS In a prospective interventional study, we included patients with a Richmond Assessment Sedation Score (RASS) of 0 without any sedation. We stepwise increased sevoflurane concentration level before assessing for deep sedation (RASS≤-3). MAC-DS was defined as the minimal sevoflurane MAC fraction or sevoflurane expiratory fraction (FeSevo) to get 90% and 95% of patients in deep sedation (MAC-DS 90 and MAC-DS 95, respectively). RESULTS Between June and November 2014, 30 patients were included (median age=60 years [interquartile range: 47-69]). Increasing sevoflurane MAC was correlated with a decrease in RASS values (r=-0.83, P<0.001). MAC-DS 90 and MAC-DS 95 were achieved at 0.42 MAC (CI 95 [0.38-0.46]) and 0.46 MAC (CI 95 [0.42-0.51]), respectively. FeSevo to achieve MAC-DS 90 and MAC-DS 95 was 0.72 (CI 95 [0.65-0.79]) and 0.80 (CI 95 [0.72-0.89]), respectively. CONCLUSION In this physiological study involving 30 ICU patients, MAC-DS, end-tidal sevoflurane concentration to get 95% of patients in deep sedation determined over more than 500 observations, is achieved at 0.8% of expired fraction of sevoflurane or at 0.5 age-adjusted MAC.

Abstract
Resting-state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rs-fMRI) has become an established technique in humans and reliably determines several resting state networks (RSNs) simultaneously. Limited data exist about RSN in dogs. The aim of this study was to investigate the RSNs in 10 healthy beagle dogs using a 3 tesla MRI scanner and subsequently perform group-level independent component analysis (ICA) to identify functionally connected brain networks. Rs-fMRI sequences were performed under steady state sevoflurane inhalation anaesthesia. Anaesthetic depth was titrated to the minimum level needed for immobilisation and mechanical ventilation of the patient. This required a sevoflurane MAC between 0.8 to 1.2. Group-level ICA dimensionality of 20 components revealed distributed sensory, motor and higher-order networks in the dogs’ brain. We identified in total 7 RSNs (default mode, primary and higher order visual, auditory, two putative motor-somatosensory and one putative somatosensory), which are common to other mammals including humans. Identified RSN are remarkably similar to those identified in awake dogs. This study proves the feasibility of rs-fMRI in anesthetized dogs and describes several RSNs, which may set the basis for investigating pathophysiological characteristics of various canine brain diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute trauma pain is poorly managed in the emergency department (ED). The reasons are partly organizational: ED crowding and rare trauma care pathways contribute to oligoanalgesia. Anticipating the organizational impact of an innovative care procedure might facilitate the decision-making process and help to optimize pain management. METHODS We used a multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) approach to consider the organizational impact of methoxyflurane (self-administered) in the ED, introduced alone or supported by a trauma care pathway. A MCDA experiment was designed for this specific context, 8 experts in emergency trauma care pathways (leading physicians and pharmacists working in French urban tertiary hospitals) were recruited. The study involved four steps: (i) Selection of organizational criteria for evaluating the innovation's impact; (ii) assessment of the relative weight of each criterion; (iii) choice of appropriate scenarios for exploring the organizational impact of MEOX under various contexts; and (iv) software-assisted simulation based on pairwise comparisons of the scenarios. The final outcome measure was the expected overall organizational impact of methoxyflurane on a 0-to-100 scale (score >50: positive impact). RESULTS Nine organizational criteria were selected. "Mean length of stay in the ED" was the most weighted. Methoxyflurane alone obtained 59 as a total score, with a putative positive impact for eight criteria, and a neutral effect on one. When a trauma care pathway was introduced concomitantly, the impact of methoxyflurane was greater overall (score: 75) and for each individual criterion. CONCLUSIONS Our model highlighted the putative positive organizational impact of methoxyflurane in the ED-particularly when supported by a trauma care pathway-and the relevance of expert consensus in this particular pharmacoeconomic context. The MCDA approach could be extended to other research fields and healthcare challenges in emergency medicine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Kidney is sensitive to ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury because of its special structure and function. In this study, we aimed to explore the mechanism of desflurane (DFE) preconditioning effecting on renal I/R injury in rats. METHODS Renal I/R injury rats model was constructed, and the expressions of serum renal function parameters (blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr)) and lipid peroxidation-related factors were detected using corresponding commercial kits to assess the degrees of renal functional damage and oxidative stress. Hematoxylin--eosin (HE) staining and Masson trichrome staining were applied to measure the renal histologic damage. The expressions of inflammation-related factors were determined by ELISA assay. The cell apoptosis was analyzed using TUNEL, Western blot and immunohistochemistry (IHC). IHC was also used to detect the number of myeloperoxidase (MPO)-positive cells. The expressions of proteins associated with the Nrf2-Keap1-ARE pathway were assessed by Western blot and IHC. RESULTS DFE preconditioning inhibited I/R injury-induced BUN and SCr increase and renal histologic injury in rats. Also, DFE suppressed the inflammation, apoptosis and oxidative stress caused by renal I/R injury in vivo. In addition, DFE preconditioning repressed peroxide-related factors (MDA, MPO and NO) expressions and promoted antioxidant-related factors (GSH, SOD, GPx and CAT) expressions. In addition, DFE promoted Nrf2-Keap1-ARE-related proteins including Nrf2, NQO1, HO-1, γ-GCS, GSR and GCLc expressions. CONCLUSION DFE preconditioning protected the kidney as well as inhibited the inflammation, cell apoptosis and oxidative stress in renal I/R injury rats by activating the Nrf2-Keap1-ARE signaling pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of a dexmedetomidine-ketamine-midazolam (DKM) anesthetic protocol versus isoflurane inhalation anesthesia on echocardiographic variables and plasma cardiac troponin 1 (cTnI) concentration in black-tailed prairie dogs (BTPDs; Cynomys ludovicianus). ANIMALS Nine 6-month-old sexually intact male captive BTPDs. PROCEDURES Each BTPD was randomly assigned to be anesthetized by IM administration of dexmedetomidine (0.25 mg/kg), ketamine (40 mg/kg), and midazolam (1.5 mg/kg) or via inhalation of isoflurane and oxygen. Three days later, each BTPD underwent the alternative anesthetic protocol. Echocardiographic data and a blood sample were collected within 5 minutes after initiation and just prior to cessation of each 45-minute-long anesthetic episode. RESULTS Time or anesthetic protocol had no significant effect on echocardiographic variables. For either protocol, plasma cTnI concentration did not differ with time. When administered as the first treatment, neither anesthetic protocol significantly affected plasma cTnI concentration. However, with regard to findings for the second treatments, plasma cTnI concentrations in isoflurane-treated BTPDs (n = 4; data for 1 animal were not analyzed because of procedural problems) were higher than values in DKM-treated BTPDs (4), which was suspected to be a carryover effect from prior DKM treatment. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE The DKM and isoflurane anesthetic protocols did not have any significant effect on echocardiographic measurements in the BTPDs. Increases in plasma cTnI concentration during the second anesthetic episode were evident when BTPDs underwent the DKM anesthetic protocol as the first of the 2 treatments, suggestive of potential myocardial injury associated with that anesthetic protocol. Clinicians should consider these findings, especially when evaluating BTPDs with known or suspected cardiac disease.

Abstract
Concentrations of 64% to 70% nitrous oxide (N2O) provide intra-operative analgesia. Clinically, pulse oximeter estimation (SpO2) of oxygen (O2) hemoglobin saturation (SaO2) was observed to decrease with N2O. Absorption atelectasis from breathing O2 was thought to decrease arterial partial pressure of O2 (PaO2) below 70 mmHg and reduce SaO2 and SpO2 when N2O was used. Administering N2O from the beginning of the anesthesia might prevent atelectasis development and low PaO2. The study was done in 2 parts (P < 0.05). In Part 1, isoflurane-anesthetized dogs undergoing ovariohysterectomy (n = 15 each group) breathed N2O from anesthesia start (N2Oearly) or 1 hour later (N2Olate). SpO2, CO-oximetry values, and PaO2 were compared to dogs breathing O2 throughout anesthesia (control). Timing of N2O introduction did not affect PaO2 (lowest = 94 mmHg), SaO2, or SpO2. With N2O, the lowest SpO2 value was 91% and corresponded to a PaO2 of 151 mmHg. Carboxyhemoglobin increased (highest = 2.7%) and SaO2 decreased with N2O (lowest = 96.7%). In Part 2, to replicate findings, 10 isoflurane-anesthetized dogs breathed N2O, then O2. With N2O, SaO2 did not decrease, but carboxyhemoglobin increased and returned to baseline once N2O was discontinued. The dog with the highest carboxyhemoglobin (2%) had an SaO2 of 96.8% (PaO2 = 93 mmHg). Carboxyhemoglobin and SaO2 changes were not clinically significant. Pulse oximetry did not reliably estimate SaO2 but N2O was not always a factor.

Abstract
This study investigated oxidative stress biomarkers at 3 different oxygen concentrations in dogs under general anesthesia to determine whether high-concentration oxygen increases oxidative stress. Six healthy beagles were randomly assigned to receive 3 anesthesia protocols (inhalation of 40%, 60%, and 100% oxygen) during 3 hours of general anesthesia with sevoflurane, with at least one week in between each protocol. For each experiment, blood samples were collected at 0, 3, 6, and 24 hours after inhalation of oxygen. Derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolites, biochemical antioxidant potential, superoxide dismutase, and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in the blood did not significantly differ among the 3 groups at any time point. This study is the first comparing high concentrations of oxygen with low concentrations of oxygen for anesthesia in dogs. According to our findings, 100% oxygen may not alter the oxidative stress level in dogs during general anesthesia with sevoflurane for 3 hours.

Abstract
RATIONALE Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) are progressive neuromuscular disorders caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. The management of anesthesia in patients with BMD is complicated because they are highly sensitive to the conventional anesthetics such as volatile anesthetics and muscle relaxants. It is reported that anesthesia in patients with DMD is associated with several complications. However, a few case reports have been published on adult patients with BMD undergoing surgery with general anesthesia. Reports indicate that children with BMD may experience some serious complications with flurane-inhaled anesthesia. However, no study has yet shown that the use of flurane-induced anesthesia in adults with DMD carries high risks. PATIENT CONCERNS We describe a 56-year-old woman with BMD who was scheduled for laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy under general anesthesia due to a mass in the uterus. The patient was diagnosed with BMD 20 years back and reported that during this period, she was able to walk slowly with help during her daily life. Additionally, she also had a history of hypertension since 4 years and type 2 diabetes mellitus since 2 years. DIAGNOSIS The patient was postmenopausal and presented with abnormal uterine bleeding and elevated CA125. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed diffuse enlargement of the uterus and hypoechoic internal echoes. These findings were suggestive of diffuse adenomyosis with multiple uterine leiomyomas, which would have adverse effects later in her life. Therefore, the patient required surgery to address the symptoms and further confirm the diagnosis. The final diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological analysis. INTERVENTIONS The patient was scheduled for laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy. Anesthesia was induced and maintained by a combination of intravenous and inhalation anesthetic agents, particularly cisatracurium besilate and inhaled. sevoflurane. OUTCOMES The duration of anesthesia and postoperative period were uneventful. At the end of the operation, the patient had normal vital signs and was fully conscious. The patient was followed up for 8 months and no complications were noted during this period. LESSONS The combination of sevoflurane and cisatracurium besilate is a safe and effective method for the anesthetic management of adult patients with BMD scheduled for laparoscopic gynecological surgery. On the other hand, it is important to be aware of even rare complications of procedures, so that necessary precautions can be undertaken. Further investigations are necessary to determine the safe dosage of volatile anesthetics specifically for this clinical scenario so that anesthesiologists can use this combination method more accurately and precisely.

Abstract
Since 2018, a new analgesic drug has been made available in Switzerland : methoxyflurane. This halogenated gas, controlled by the patient, offers a very effective analgesic effect comparable to opiates. Known since the 1960s and used mainly in pre-hospital emergency medicine in Australia and New Zealand, its use in Europe is increasing alongside standard analgesic treatments in the traumatic setting. Administered by inhalation, it does not require an intravenous access, which is ideal in prehospital emergency situations. This treatment could be used for the management of acute pain of various origins, such as renal lithiasis, or to facilitate different procedures, such as closed fracture reduction or chest tube insertion. Its indications are growing and its use will probably become commonplace with clinicians in a near future.

Abstract
Emulsified volatile anesthetic can be directly injected into the circulation and eliminated from blood through lungs. Taking advantage of the unique pharmacokinetics of the emulsified volatile anesthetics, we aimed to develop a less traumatic method to differentially deliver them to the spinal cord of rabbit. Sixteen New Zealand White rabbits were randomly assigned to the isoflurane or sevoflurane group. A catheter was placed into the descending aorta, and emulsified isoflurane (8mg/kg/h) or sevoflurane (12mg/kg/h) was given respectively. The concentration and partial pressure of the anesthetics in the jugular and femoral vein were measured. Our results showed that the partial pressure for isoflurane was 3.91±1.11 mmHg and 12.61±1.60 mmHg (1.0MAC), and for sevoflurane was 3.89±1.00 mmHg and 19.92±1.84mmHg (1.0MAC), in the jugular vein and femoral vein, respectively. There was significant difference between jugular and femoral vein partial pressure for both isoflurane and sevoflurane groups (both P < 0.001). In conclusion, a simple and minimally invasive method has been successfully developed to selectively deliver isoflurane and sevoflurane to the spinal cord in the rabbit. Before the anesthetics taking action on the brain, 69% of isoflurane and 81% of sevoflurane were removed through lungs. This method can be used to investigate sites and mechanisms of volatile anesthetic action.

Abstract
Testosterone (T), predominantly acting through its derivative 17β-estradiol (E2), regulates the brain's sexual differentiation in rodents during the perinatal sensitive period, which mirrors the window of vulnerability to the adverse effects of general anesthetics. The mechanisms of anesthesia's adverse effects are poorly understood. We investigated whether sevoflurane alters T and E2 levels and whether they contribute to sevoflurane's acute adverse effects in postnatal day 5 Sprague-Dawley rats. The rats underwent electroencephalography recordings for 2 h of baseline activity or for 1 h before and another hour during 2.1% sevoflurane exposure, followed by collection of trunk blood and brain tissue. Pharmacological agents, including the GABA type A receptor inhibitor bicuculline and the aromatase inhibitor formestane, were administered 30 min before sevoflurane anesthesia. Sevoflurane increased serum T levels in males only. All other effects of sevoflurane were similar in both sexes, including increases in serum levels of E2, hypothalamic mRNA levels of aromatase, estrogen receptor α (Erα) [not estrogen receptor β (Erβ)], Na+-K+-Cl- cotransporter (Nkcc1)/K+-Cl- cotransporter (Kcc2) mRNA ratio, electroencephalography-detectable seizures, and stress-like corticosterone secretion. Bicuculline and formestane alleviated these effects, except the T level increases. The ERα antagonist MPP, but not the ERβ antagonist PHTPP, reduced electroencephalography-detectable seizures and normalized the Nkcc1/Kcc2 mRNA ratio. Collectively, sevoflurane exacerbates levels of T in males and E2 in both sexes during the period of their organizational effects in rodents. Sevoflurane acts through GABAAR-mediated, systemic T-independent elevation of E2 to cause electroencephalography-detectable seizures, stress-like corticosterone secretion, and changes in the expression of genes critical for brain development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous studies have reported that propofol has antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects in addition to its anesthetic properties. To confirm this, a retrospective investigation was conducted to determine whether different anesthetic agents, particularly propofol and inhalation anesthetics, have an effect on the recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients who were diagnosed with primary HCC and underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Patients with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stages 0, A, and B HCC, who underwent laparoscopic hepatic resection, were enrolled in this study. Post-operative HCC recurrence, which was determined from postoperative liver CT, was evaluated 24 months postoperatively with respect to the main anesthetic agents. The characteristics of HCC and other patient-related or surgery-related variables were evaluated together. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION During the 24-month period after hepatic resection, less HCC patients in the propofol group than in the inhalation group recurred (p = 0.046). The mean time to recurrence was 20.8 months (95% CI, 19.7-22.0) and 19.1 months (95% CI, 17.8-20.4) in the propofol group and the inhalation group, respectively. In addition, multivariable Cox proportional regression analysis revealed that the propofol group showed significantly decreased recurrence versus the inhalation group (hazard ratio, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.47-0.69; p = 0.029). When propofol was used as the main general anesthetic agent for laparoscopic hepatic resection, the postoperative 2-year recurrence rate decreased in early- and intermediate-stage HCC.
