Published: May 2023

Understanding the effects of diabetes and hyperglycemia on hydration, acid-base status, and immune function is paramount to safely anesthetizing diabetic cats and dogs. Preoperative stabilization of glucose concentrations, hydration, and electrolyte imbalances is key to minimizing morbidity and mortality. Blood glucose monitoring perioperatively will help guide insulin and dextrose administration. Specific anesthetic considerations, and peri-anesthetic management of animals with diabetes mellitus, including anesthetic drugs and recommended insulin protocols are discussed.

Olfactory disorders and their associated complications present a considerable challenge to an individual's quality of life and emotional wellbeing. The current range of treatments, including surgical procedures, pharmacological interventions, and behavioral training, frequently proves ineffective in restoring olfactory function. The olfactory bulb (OB) is essential for odor processing and plays a pivotal role in the development of these disorders.

Contributions of Medical Greenhouse Gases to Climate Change and Their Possible Alternatives.

Institute of Marine and Environmental Technology, Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21201, USA.

Considerable attention has recently been given to the contribution of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the healthcare sector to climate change. GHGs used in medical practice are regularly released into the atmosphere and contribute to elevations in global temperatures that produce detrimental effects on the environment and human health. Consequently, a comprehensive assessment of their global warming potential over 100 years (GWP) characteristics, and clinical uses, many of which have evaded scrutiny from policy makers due to their medical necessity, is needed.

SIRT6 is known to play a protective role in several kidney diseases; however, its role in vancomycin-induced renal injury remains unclear. This study aims to confirm the role and related mechanisms of SIRT6 in vancomycin-induced renal injury. To develop a kidney damage model, mice were given vancomycin injections for seven days.

Division of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Anesthesiology, Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, FL, USA. Electronic address:

The care for lung transplantation patients is a complex, multidisciplinary coordination of physician and non-physician teams throughout the perioperative period. The diversity of etiologies of recipient end-stage lung disease further complicate care, as recipients often present with concomitant end-stage cardiac disease. Recently, the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation has become the mechanical circulatory support of choice to provide cardiopulmonary stability throughout the perioperative period.
