Background: Recently, there have been many cases where sugammadex used in traffic accident patients has been deducted from auto insurance claims. This study aims to investigate the characteristics of sugammadex deductions through retrospective analysis.
Methods: We included patients who underwent general anesthesia after traffic accidents at our institution between January 2019 and December 2023.

Article Synopsis
- Monitoring core temperature is essential during general anesthesia, particularly when using a gastric decompression tube (GDT) for laparoscopic surgeries.
- A study involving 48 patients evaluated the optimal insertion depth for a newly designed GDT that includes a thermistor, using a specific insertion formula based on anatomical distances.
- Findings indicated that GDT temperatures correlated well with tympanic membrane temperatures, and a mathematical model was developed to accurately predict the ideal depth for GDT insertion to improve temperature monitoring.
Background: The root of , a perennial herb found in Japan, the Philippines, China, and Korea, is used as an analgesic. In a previous study, sec-O-glucosylhamaudol (SOG) showed an analgesic effect. This study was performed to examine the antinociceptive effect of intrathecal SOG in the formalin test.
