XopM, An FFAT Motif-Containing Type III Effector Protein From Xanthomonas, Suppresses MTI Responses at the Plant Plasma Membrane.

Many gram-negative pathogenic bacteria use type III effector proteins (T3Es) as essential virulence factors to suppress host immunity and to cause disease. However, in many cases the molecular function of T3Es remains unknown. The plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv.

Nociception level-guided opioid administration in radical retropubic prostatectomy: a randomised controlled trial.

Background: This RCT investigated the effect of opioid titration by three different nociception monitoring devices or clinical signs during general anaesthesia.

Methods: Ninety-six patients undergoing radical retropubic prostatectomy with propofol/remifentanil anaesthesia were randomised into one of four groups to receive remifentanil guided by one of three nociception monitoring devices (surgical pleth index [SPI], pupillary pain index [PPI], or nociception level [NOL]) or by clinical judgement (control). Intraoperative remifentanil requirement was the primary endpoint, whereas recovery parameters and stress hormone levels were secondary endpoints.

Guiding Opioid Administration by 3 Different Analgesia Nociception Monitoring Indices During General Anesthesia Alters Intraoperative Sufentanil Consumption and Stress Hormone Release: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Study.

Background: This pilot study investigated the effect of sufentanil titration by 3 different analgesia monitoring devices or clinical signs during general anesthesia.

Methods: Forty-eight patients undergoing radical retropubic prostatectomy with sevoflurane/sufentanil anesthesia were randomly assigned into 4 groups and received sufentanil guided either by 1 of 3 analgesia monitoring devices (Surgical Pleth Index [SPI], Pupillary Pain Index [PPI], Nociception Level [NoL]) or by clinical judgment (control). The primary end point was intraoperative sufentanil consumption.
