- The study investigates the impact of oral midazolam on patient satisfaction in older adults (ages 65-80) undergoing elective surgery, as its effects have been unclear.
- Conducted in 9 German hospitals from October 2017 to May 2019, it was a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 616 patients randomized to receive either midazolam or a placebo before anesthesia.
- Results showed no significant difference in global patient satisfaction between the midazolam group and the placebo group, indicating that midazolam may not improve satisfaction in this demographic.

The strain-specific modifier Ssm1 is responsible for the strain-dependent methylation of particular E. coli gpt-containing transgenic sequences. Here, we identify Ssm1 as the KRAB-zinc finger (ZF) gene 2610305D13Rik located on distal chromosome 4.
