Background: Hypothermia is an effective method of reducing brain injury caused by a variety of neurological insults. It is aimed to elucidate whether a change in the expression of PERK-mediated pathway proteins is an indicator of the neuroprotective effect of mild hypothermia after cerebral ischaemia/reperfusion.

Methods: One hundred and ninety-two male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into three groups: a sham group, a cerebral normothermic ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) group and a cerebral hypothermic I/R group.

Background: The mechanisms of emergence from general anesthesia remain to be elucidated. Recent studies indicate that the central histaminergic system plays a critical role in maintaining wakefulness. In addition, the neural pathways that regulate the wake-sleep cycle are involved in general anesthesia.

Article Synopsis
  • The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is a device used during general anesthesia to help with lung ventilation, and its correct placement is crucial for effective airway management.
  • A study involving 64 female patients assessed three methods for confirming LMA placement: clinical tests, ultrasound examination, and fiberoptic laryngoscopy.
  • Results showed that clinical tests confirmed placement in 89.1% of cases, while ultrasound was more effective than fiberoptic laryngoscopy, highlighting ultrasound as the superior method for confirming LMA placement.
