Background: As a popularly used analgesic adjuvant, intravenous (IV) lidocaine could reduce the consumption of propofol in painless gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy. However, whether IV lidocaine could affect the incidence of oxygen-desaturation episodes (ODE) during painless GI endoscopy is still unknown. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that IV lidocaine could decrease the incidence of propofol-induced ODE and involuntary movements in patients during GI endoscopy.
Methods: Three hundred twenty-two patients scheduled for GI endoscopy were randomly divided into lidocaine group and control group. After midazolam and sufentanil injection, a bolus of 1.5 mg/kg lidocaine was given and followed by continuous infusion of 4 mg/kg/h in lidocaine group, whereas the same volumes of saline solution in control group. Then, propofol was titrated to produce unconsciousness. The primary outcome was the incidence of ODE during the procedure. The secondary outcomes were the incidence of different degree of hypoxia and corresponding treatments and the involuntary body movements.
Results: A total of 300 patients were finally included in the analysis, 147 patients in lidocaine group and 153 in control group. The incidence of ODE was 22% in lidocaine group and 39% in control group (OR:0.052; 95%CI: 0.284-0.889; P = 0.018). IV lidocaine also improved the occurrence of different degree of hypoxia (P = 0.017) and needed few treatments (P = 0.028). The incidence of involuntary body movements (14% vs 26%, P = 0.013) and adverse circulatory events was decreased by IV lidocaine.
Conclusions: IV lidocaine adjuvant to propofol-based sedation could reduce the incidence of oxygen-desaturation episodes and involuntary body movements, with fewer adverse circulatory events.

Introduction: Intra-articular injections, commonly used in osteoarthritis treatment, are debated due to their potential link to septic arthritis, though its incidence remains low. Lidocaine, used as a "carrier" for therapeutic substances like hyaluronan or triamcinolone, has pain-relieving and antimicrobial properties. This study investigates the concentration-dependent antimicrobial effects of lidocaine in combination with hyaluronan and triamcinolone in both standard and synovial fluid cultures.

Rhinogenic contact point headache (RCPH) is a controversial secondary headache disorder involving mucosal contact points in the nasal sinuses. The efficacy of surgical versus medical management has been debated, with some studies showing excellent long-term outcomes but others citing placebo effects. This study aimed to clarify the correlation with nasal anatomical variation detected by CT and RCPH treatment outcomes.

Objective: To explore whether microneedle pretreatment can significantly improve the efficacy and safety of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-photodynamic therapy (PDT) in the treatment of oral leukoplakia.
Methods: A non-randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted. Patients with clinical and pathological diagnosis of oral leukoplakia in the Department of Oral Mucosa, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology were divided into experimental group and control group.

Background: Effective management of postsurgical pain following arthroplasty remains a challenge, lacking a definitive gold standard. As most knee and hip arthroplasties are cemented or hybrid, we used the property of bone cement as a drug carrier and added powdered local anesthetics (lidocaine hydrochloride and bupivacaine hydrochloride) to the polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) as analgesics. However, the addition of drugs to bone cement may compromise its mechanical properties, necessitating a thorough analysis.
