Isoflurane suppresses cortical spreading depolarizations compared to propofol - implications for sedation of neurocritical care patients.
Abstract Sedatives in the neurointensive care unit can strongly influence patients' risks of developing secondary brain damage. In particular, isoflurane, a volatile anesthetic, has been recently re-introduced to the neurointensive care unit, and first clinical studies suggest beneficial effects due to elevation of cerebral blood flow and reduction of metabolism. In contrast, propofol is a commonly used intravenous sedative that reduces cerebral blood flow and intra-cranial pressure. We have here studied the influence of these two sedatives on the occurrence of cortical spreading depolarizations (CSDs), which have...

Early neurological complications after transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect with nitinol wire mesh occluder.
Abstract Atrial septal defect (ASD) was closed percutaneously in an 18-year-old boy with a 27 mm nitinol wire mesh occluder according to standard procedures. Three hours after the procedure, he presented anxiety attacks, aggression, a vacant stare and a verbal/speaking disorder. Small ischaemic stroke localised in the right temporal/parietal region of the central nervous system was confirmed by computed tomography examination. Activated partial thromboplastin time was then 54 s despite continuous heparin infusion. Heparin dose was increased and symptomatic treatment was introduced (mannitol, furosemide, propofol, ...

Effects of propofol on damage of rat intestinal epithelial cells induced by heat stress and lipopolysaccharides.
This study developed a model that can mimic the intestinal heat stress environment. It demonstrates the effects on intestinal epithelial cell damage, and indicated that propofol could be used as a therapeutic drug for the treatment of heat-stress-induced intestinal injuries.

Endovascular treatment of intracranial arteriovenous malformation with n-butyl cyanoacrylate. Working methods and experience in 58 cases.
CONCLUSIONS: The rates of total occlusion and of morbidity and mortality in the series are in the internationally described ranges. The implementation of intranidal closings with 20-30% devascularization per session and the use of post-embolization hypotension after the haemorrhage complications described resulted in the total absence of haemorrhagic complications.
