1. Is Jedi Grip efficient and effective in ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blocking? A prospective, randomized, observer-blinded study
Abstract Background In this prospective, randomized, controlled observer-blinded study, we aimed to compare the efficacy of a single-operator technique called the Jedi Grip and a conventional technique requiring a double operator in ultrasound-guided axillary brachial plexus blocking. Methods Ninety-two patients (ASA I-II; aged 18-65 years old) who underwe

2. An alternative approach for blocking the superior trunk of the brachial plexus evaluated by a single arm clinical trial
Abstract Background Interscalene brachial plexus block is associated with phrenic nerve paralysis. The objective of this study was to evaluate an alternative approach to interscalene brachial plexus blocks in terms of efficacy, grade of motor and sensory blockade, and phrenic nerve blockade. Methods The study was prospective and interventional. The ten liv

3. Photosensitive rash induced by nivolumab
Abstract The therapeutic approach to metastatic melanoma has revolutionized the clinical course of this disease. Since 2011, different immunotherapeutic drugs have been approved. Nivolumab is a humanized immunoglobulin IgG4 monoclonal antibody that binds to the PD-1 receptor, blocking its interaction with his ligand PD-L1. The authors present a new case of p

4. Anesthesia or analgesia? New block for shoulder surgery: pericapsular nerve group block
Abstract Interscalene brachial plexus (ISB) block is considered the analgesic technique of choice for shoulder surgery. However, the hemidiaphragmatic paresis that may occur after the block has led to the search for an alternative to the ISB block. In this case report, the pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block was performed for both surgical anesthesia and p

5. Does eating eggs matter?
ABSTRACT Dietary cholesterol is absorbed in proportion to the amount ingested, blocking its hepatic synthesis, increasing its biliary excretion, only slightly increasing production of bile acids while potentially raising the serum concentration of the atherogenic low-density lipoprotein. Humans lie midway between rats and rabbits that respond to dietary chol

6. Highlights of clinical and laboratory parameters among severe COVID-19 patients treated with tocilizumab: a retrospective observational study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can cause cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which leads to high mortality rates. Tocilizumab suppresses CRS by blocking the signal transduction of interleukin-6 (IL-6). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical and laboratory parameters associated with mortality among patients receiving tocilizumab treatmen

7. A laparoscopic vascular blocking forceps used for renal carcinoma combined with tumor thrombus
ABSTRACT Objectives: To discuss the feasibility and efficacy of a laparoscopic vessel blocking forceps in laparoscopic inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombectomy (1–3). Materials and methods: The patient was secured in a left lateral decubitus position. The surgical field was built with 4-trocar. The laparoscopic vessel blocking forceps was used to block the

9. Why Methylene Blue Is the Only Option for Blocking the cGMP/NO Pathway in The Treatment of Vasoplegic Shock? “Reasons That Reason Itself Does Not Know…”
Abstract Introduction: Over the past few years, we have seen some signs of change in mental health among cardiovascular surgeons. Suicide cases, troubled professional relationships, separations, and treatment of depression and anxiety are common occurrences in this group of surgeons. With this in mind, we decided to perform an analysis of the mental health

10. Falsely elevated serum estradiol due to heterophile antibody interference: a case report
SUMMARY Falsely elevated estradiol is rare, may result from heterophile antibody interference, and can result in unnecessary investigation and intervention. We present the case of a 56-year-old female with falsely elevated estradiol levels inconsistent with her overall clinical picture, which ultimately led to an unnecessary surgical procedure. With the use

11. COMPARING A SINGLE-SENSOR CAMERA WITH A MULTISENSOR CAMERA FOR MONITORING COFFEE CROP USING UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES
ABSTRACT There exist two options for digital cameras that can capture the near-infrared (NIR) band. Conventional red–green–blue (RGB, visible bands) cameras with a single sensor provide NIR band visibility based on the removal of the internal NIR-blocking filter. Alternatively, multisensor cameras exist that have a specific sensor for each band. The modi

12. Co-transfection of hepatocyte growth factor and truncated TGF-β type II receptor inhibit scar formation
Wound scarring remains a major challenge for plastic surgeons. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β plays a key role in the process of scar formation. Previous studies have demonstrated that truncated TGF-β type II receptor (t-TGF-βRII) is unable to continue signal transduction but is still capable of binding to TGF-β, thereby blocking the TGF-β signaling
