Purpose Of Review: Surgical procedures on obese patients are dramatically increasing worldwide over the past few years. In this review, we discuss the physiopathology of predominantly respiratory system in obese patients, the importance of preoperative evaluation, preoxygenation and intraoperative positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration to prevent pulmonary complications and the optimization of airway management and oxygenation to reduce or prevent postoperative respiratory complications.

Recent Findings: Many patients are coming to preoperative clinic with medication history of glucagon-like-peptide 1 agonists ( GLP-1) agonists and it has raised many questions regarding Nil Per Os (NPO)/perioperative fasting guidelines due to delayed gastric emptying caused by these medications.

We examined differences in scores between exhaustion and disengagement and their prevalences.

Article Synopsis
  • The complete nucleotide sequence of a virus affecting ornamental hibiscus in Hawaii was determined, revealing a bipartite RNA genome of 8748 nt for RNA1 and 5019 nt for RNA2.
  • The genome organization is characteristic of the cilevirus family, with RNA1 encoding proteins related to replication and RNA2 containing five open reading frames of varying sizes, including a movement protein similar to those in other RNA viruses.
  • The virus shows 92% similarity to the citrus leprosis virus, suggesting it may be a strain of this virus, but its classification remains uncertain due to a lack of established species criteria within the cilevirus genus.
