Objectives: To test the effect of preoperative mannitol infusion on perioperative decreased cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Methods: Forty patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were enrolled in this study conducted at Dammam Hospital of the University, Dammam, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from December 2013 to June 2014. Patients received either 0.5 g/kg of 20% intravenous mannitol infusion over 10 minutes before induction of anesthesia (group M), or an equal volume of normal saline instead (group C). Primary outcome variable was rSO2. Other variables included extubation time, clinical assessment of consciousness recovery using the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale (OAA/S), and the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) for cognitive evaluation.

Results: Anesthesia induction increased rSO2 in both groups. Pneumoperitoneum decreased rSO2 in group C, but not in group M. This drop in rSO2 in the group C reached its maximum 30 minutes after extubation, and was significantly less than the preinduction value. Time to extubation in group M was significantly shorter compared with group C (p=0.007). The OAAS in group M at 10 min after extubation was significantly higher compared with group C. No differences were found between the 2 groups in cognitive function as measured by MMSE score.

Conclusion: Preoperative mannitol infusion maintains perioperative rSO2 during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and shortens extubation time with earlier resurgence of OAAS.

Background: Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) is a potentially life-threatening condition requiring prompt intervention. While both mannitol and hypertonic saline (HTS) are commonly used hyperosmotic agents for treating elevated ICP, there is insufficient evidence comparing their renal safety profiles and overall effectiveness. This study protocol outlines a pragmatic randomized trial to compare protocol-based 11.

Background: Mannitol is frequently utilized to achieve intracranial brain relaxation during the retrosigmoid approach for auditory brainstem implantation (ABI). Hypertonic saline (HS) is an alternative for reducing intracranial pressure; however, its application during ABI surgery remains under-investigated. We aimed to compare the efficacy and safety between HS and mannitol for maintaining brain relaxation.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to genetically diagnose methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) from diabetic foot infections and test the effectiveness of reuterin in inhibiting its growth.
  • Conducted in Iraq, the research involved analyzing 62 samples from diabetic patients, confirming MRSA presence through genetic methods, and determining the inhibition levels of reuterin.
  • Results showed that reuterin effectively inhibited MRSA without harming human red blood cells, suggesting it as a viable natural antimicrobial option for treating diabetic foot wounds.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is essential for protection and plays a crucial role in chronic neurological disorders like small-vessel disease and Alzheimer's disease. Its complexity poses significant challenges for effective diagnostics and treatments, highlighting the need for novel animal models and comprehensive BBB dysfunction studies. This study investigates chronic BBB dysfunction induction using osmotic disruption via mannitol in healthy adult male Sprague Dawley rats over 12 weeks.

Background: In this study, we aimed to develop a method for the simultaneous quantification of methotrexate (MTX) samples extracted from human plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), using two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC). Furthermore, we intended to verify whether intravenous mannitol could increase MTX concentration in the CSF of patients.

Methods: The mobile phase of PUMP1 consisted of 10.
