Safety and efficacy of supraciliary dexamethasone implantation for macular oedema: a preliminary comparative study.
Eye (Lond)
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Bursa Uludag University School of Medicine, Bursa, Turkey.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dexamethasone implantation in the supraciliary (SC) space, a novel and potential effective implantation site, compared to intravitreal (IV) application.
Methods: This prospective study included 39 eyes of 38 patients with macular oedema (ME) who underwent SC and IV dexamethasone implantation (SC-DEX and IV-DEX). Patients were randomly assigned to treatment groups and followed for 3 months.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Seoul National University Seoul Metropolitan Government Boramae Medical Center, Dongjak-gu, Korea (the Republic of).
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether IV dexamethasone, within the current multimodal pain management protocol, (1) could maintain postoperative pain at a comparable level without IV PCA, (2) could reduce opioids-related side effects, and (3) whether an additional dose of dexamethasone on POD 2 would offer further pain-relieving effect without increasing the risk of complications. Methods A total of 178 patients (182 knees) who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for osteoarthritis were included in the study. The patients were divided into Dexa 2 & PCA and Dexa 3 & NoPCA group.

Department of Anesthesiology, The Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, No.138, Tongzipo Road, Yuelu District, Changsha, Hunan, China, 410013.
Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are common complications after gynecological laparoscopic surgery. Pyridoxine has been recommended as a first-line drug to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting during pregnancy; however, its efficacy in preventing PONV remains unclear.
Methods: Patients of 18 to 65 years old, who received elective gynecological laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia, were randomized into either the pyridoxine or control group.
Safety of perioperative intravenous different doses of dexamethasone in primary total joint arthroplasty: a retrospective large-scale cohort study.

Department of Orthopedics, Orthopedic Research Institute, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, #37 Guoxue Road, Chengdu, 610041, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: Perioperative intravenous different doses of dexamethasone (DEX) can realize effective clinical outcomes in total joint arthroplasty (TJA). However, the effect of different DEX doses on readmission rates and postoperative complications remains unclear.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent primary TJA between December 2012 and October 2020.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the optimal timing for administering intravenous dexamethasone to prolong pain relief after supraclavicular brachial plexus blockade.
- Participants were randomly assigned to receive dexamethasone at various times relative to the block, with 158 patients included in the analysis.
- Results showed no significant differences in pain relief duration, opioid use, or adverse effects among the timing groups, indicating that dexamethasone can be effectively administered at multiple times without impacting pain management outcomes.
