Purpose: Ischemia-reperfusion injury is one of the consequences of tourniquet application for extremity surgery. The aim of the study was to establish the effect of dexmedetomidine on the acute lung injury following lower extremity experimental ischemia-reperfusion model in rats.
Methods: Twenty-eight Wistar-Albino breed Rats were recruited after Ethics Committee approval and allocated into 4 groups, each with 7 subjects.
Background And Objectives: Many conditions such as bacterial and viral infectious diseases, mechanical obstruction due to air and calculi and drugs can cause parotitis. We present a case of unusual bilateral parotitis in a patient under non-invasive continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation in intensive care unit.
Case Report: A 36-year-old patient was admitted to intensive care unit with the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation.
Article Synopsis
- - A case study presented a 36-year-old patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation who developed bilateral parotitis while undergoing CPAP therapy in the ICU.
- - The patient exhibited painless swelling in the parotid glands after starting treatment, with elevated amylase levels confirming parotitis, but no invasive interventions were necessary.
- - The research suggests that retrograde airflow in the Stensen duct during CPAP may have led to the parotitis, after ruling out other potential causes like infections and drug reactions.

Pseudocholinesterase Enzyme Deficiency in Adıyaman City Area.
Turk J Anaesthesiol Reanim
December 2015
Objective: Pseudocholinesterase (PChE) is an enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of succinylcholine. In case of its deficiency, the effect of succinylcholine that is approximately 5-10 min is prolonged up to few hours. The use of succinylcholine has been declined recently.

In the literature its importance is generally overshadowed by postdural puncture headache. We studied two different kinds of spinal anesthesia needles to compare their technical handling capacities and incidences of PDPB.
