Objective Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) may elicit antidepressant effects after its elimination from the brain. We sought to investigate whether short-term administration of N O triggers power within delta (0.5-4 Hz) and/or theta (4-7 frequency ranges in electroencephalogram (EEG) it´s administration, as we have recently seen such rebound studies conducted on mice. Methods Twenty healthy male participants were randomly allocated receive 50% either continuously for 20 minutes (continuous group) or...

Background: Despite a high prevalence of persistent groin pain after hernia repair, the specific nature and its clinical manifestation are poorly known. The aim this study was to determine type post‐herniorrhaphy influence on daily life. Methods: In order assess long‐term qualitatively explore how it affects quality life, 100 individuals with persisting pain, identified in cohort patients operated for hernia, were neurologically examined, along pain‐free controls matched age, gender...

Post-operative pain continues to be a major problem. Some previous studies have suggested that patients anaesthetised with propofol less after surgery than those anesthetised volatiles. However, the results of are conflicting.

Abstract Background Nitrous oxide use is shifting from general anesthesia to sedation and pain control. Interest in novel uses of nitrous psychiatry also growing. Thus, understanding the consequences using remains relevant. Previous quantitative research might not have fully captured whole spectrum oxide, whereas qualitative analysis can provide a more comprehensive description. This study aims describe subjective experiences healthy volunteers who no prior history recreational substance...

Abstract Background In open abdominal surgery, continuous epidural analgesia is commonly used method for postoperative analgesia. However, ultrasound (US)‐guided fascial plane blocks may be a reasonable alternative. Methods this randomized controlled trial, we compared posterior quadratus lumborum block (QLB) with pain after radical cystectomy (ORC). Adult patients aged 18–85 bladder cancer (BC) scheduled RC were in two groups. Exclusion criteria complicated diabetes mellitus type I, lack of...
