An experimental and clinical investigation of the possibility to use local hypothermia of the extremity in the complex treatment of its acute ischemia was performed. It was established that the local hypothermia could considerably improve tissue viability in the process of the extremity ischemia at the expense of spasmolytic, hypocoagulative, anesthetic effects and inhibition of metabolism. A conclusion is made that the local hypothermia should be used in the clinic for the improvement of results of treatment of patients with acute arterial obstruction of the lower extremities complicated by severe ischemia.

Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Faculty of Medicine, Bezmialem Vakif University, Istanbul, Türkiye.
Aim: This study aimed to protect brain functions in patients who experienced in-hospital cardiac arrest through the application of local cerebral hypothermia. By utilizing a specialized thermal hypothermia device, this approach sought to mitigate ischemic brain injury associated with post-cardiac arrest syndrome, enhance survival rates, and improve neurological outcomes as measured by standardized scales.
Methods: A prospective, single-center cohort study was conducted involving patients aged ≥18 years who experienced in-hospital cardiac arrest and achieved return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).

Methionine sulfoximine (MSO) is a compound originally discovered as a byproduct of agene-based milled flour maturation. MSO irreversibly inhibits the astrocytic enzyme glutamine synthase (GS) but also interferes with the transport of glutamine (Gln) and of glutamate (Glu), and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthesized within the Glu/Gln-GABA cycle, in this way dysregulating neurotransmission balance in favor of excitation. No wonder that intraperitoneal administration of MSO has long been known to induce behavioral and/or electrographic seizures.

Background: Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is an autoimmune hemolytic anemia that induces blood coagulation and hemolysis upon exposure to cold temperatures. Strict temperature control is essential to mitigate these effects, especially during surgical procedures where hypothermia is possible.
Case Presentation: A 57-year-old male, 165 cm and 72 kg, diagnosed with CAD, underwent cerebral vascular anastomosis.
The short term impact of radiofrequency ablative techniques and peripheral nerve block on thermoregulation in mouse models.

This study investigated the impact of multiple nerve block methods (local anesthesia, conventional radiofrequency thermocoagulation [CRF], and pulsed radiofrequency [PRF]) on thermoregulation. Focusing on hypothalamic function, the effects of local anesthesia, CRF, and PRF on central and peripheral temperatures were analyzed and compared. Our findings revealed that all three nerve block groups cause a decrease in central temperature, with the CRF group exhibiting the most pronounced effect.

Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare autoinflammatory disorder that commonly poses diagnostic challenges due to its atypical symptomatology. This observational study aimed to investigate the clinical features, laboratory test results, imaging features, and treatment strategies for pediatric patients with CRMO. We retrospectively analyzed 7 pediatric patients with CRMO treated at the Department of Pediatric Orthopedics, First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine between January 2018 and February 2022.
