Background/aim: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be a greater challenge for anesthesiologist than for surgeon if the patient is ASA III with concomitant cardiovascular diseases. The aim of our study was to compare the effect of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA--propofol with midazolam) and general balanced anesthesia (GBA--midazolam, thiopenton, nitrous oxide and 02) on hemodynamic stability in the ASA III patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Methods: In our study, 60 patients were randomized into two groups depending on whether they received TIVA or GBA. Heart rate, systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure were monitored continuously and recorded in five time intervals.
Results: Statistical analysis showed that TIVA with propofol provides better hemodynamic stability (less than 10% deviation from basal values for each measured parameter) then GBA group (p < 0.01).
Conclusion: Total intravenous anesthesia with propofol provides better hemodynamic stability for ASA III patients with concomitant cardiovascular diseases then GBA.

Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) represents a spectrum of potentially fatal conditions that currently lack effective drug treatment. Recent researches suggest that Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21) may protect against ALI/ARDS. However, the clinical use of FGF21 is limited by its rapid degradation, restricted targeting capabilities, and numerous adverse effects.

Importance: Pediatric peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) insertion can be difficult and time-consuming, frequently requiring multiple insertion attempts and often resulting in increased anxiety, distress, and treatment avoidance among children and their families. Ultrasound-guided PIVC insertion is a superior alternative to standard technique (palpation and visualization) in high-risk patients.
Objective: To compare first-time insertion success of PIVCs inserted with ultrasound guidance compared with standard technique (palpation and visualization) across all risk categories in the general pediatric hospital population.

Studies on pain in preterm infants have usually been confined to observations of painful procedures, and information from extremely preterm infants is limited. Using registry data from a Swedish nationwide cohort, this study explored the epidemiology of pain in very preterm infants, its causes, assessments, and treatment strategies. We included liveborn infants <32 weeks' gestational age (GA) discharged between January 2020 and June 2024.

Objective: To explore the efficacy of the nutritional support team (NST) management model in patients undergoing total gastrectomy combined with Roux-en-Y anastomosis.
Methods: Clinical data of 102 patients who underwent total gastrectomy combined with Roux-en-Y anastomosis in Xingtai Central Hospital from January 2020 to October 2023 were retrospectively collected. Of 102 patients, 53 received the NST model of management (NST group), while 49 were managed by the conventional nutritional support (TN group).

Introduction: This study evaluated the relationship between total plasma and free kidney concentrations of amphotericin B (AmB) in healthy and -infected Wistar rats using microdialysis and has the potential to significantly impact future research in this field and promote the development of antifungal drugs. The findings of this study, which show that plasma levels are a good predictor for AmB kidney concentrations and can be used to optimize its dosing regimen, underscore the importance of this research.
Methods: Microdialysis probe recovery rates were determined by dialysis and retrodialysis , as well as by retrodialysis .
