Treatment of status migrainosus by general anesthesia: a case report
Conclusion Status migrainosus is a rare disabling complication and anesthetics have been the subject of research in its treatment; the option for general anesthesia with agents that stimulate GABA receptors, propofol and isoflurane, in association with fentanyl, proved effective and should encourage new research.

Drugs used to treat joint and muscle disease
Publication date: Available online 19 February 2015 Source:Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine Author(s): David G. Lambert Joint disease: Arthritis can be simply broken into osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Osteoarthritis is treated with symptomatic pain relief and surgery. RA is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes inflammation of joints (leading to their destruction), tissues around joints and other organ systems. Treatment (for pain) of RA in the first instance is with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, with second-line treatment using disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). DMAR...

Epidural Steroid Injections are Safe and Effective: Multisociety Letter in Support of the Safety and Effectiveness of Epidural Steroid Injections
Abstract
Background: In April 2014, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a Drug Safety Communication requesting that corticosteroid labeling include warnings that injection of corticosteroids into the epidural space of the spine may result in rare but serious adverse events, including loss of vision, stroke, paralysis, and death. Results: The International Spine Intervention Society spearheaded a collaboration of more than a dozen other medical societies in submitting the letter below to the FDA on November 7, 2014. We are publishing the letter to ensure that the readership of Pain Medicine is aware of the multiso...

Postoperative dissection of the vertebral artery in two steps
We report a case revealed by a tegmento-thalamic stroke after an abdominal second surgical look. The interest of this observation is related to a particular evolution in two steps separated by a 2-month-interval and an intercurrent cervical manipulation. After the second anesthesia, neck pain associated with a third cranial nerve palsy and a supranuclear ophtalmoplegia revealed a tegmento-thalamic ischemic stroke due to vertebral artery dissection. We discuss here the different factors possibly involved in the pathophysiology of postoperative vertebral artery dissection: positioning, cervical manipulation, subclavian centr...

A Pilot Study for a Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind Trial of the Influence of Anesthetic Depth on Long-Term Outcome.
CONCLUSIONS:: This pilot study demonstrated that depth of anesthesia targeting with BIS or SE was achievable in a high-risk population with adequate separation of processed electroencephalogram monitor targets. The expected incidence of postoperative complications and mortality occurred. We conclude that a large, multicenter, randomized controlled trial is feasible.

Minimally invasive cardiac surgery and transesophageal echocardiography.
Abstract
Improved cosmetic appearance, reduced pain and duration of post-operative stay have intensified the popularity of minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS); however, the increased risk of stroke remains a concern. In conventional cardiac surgery, surgeons can visualize and feel the cardiac structures directly, which is not possible with MICS. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is essential during MICS in detecting problems that require immediate correction. Comprehensive evaluation of the cardiac structures and function helps in the confirmation of not only the definitive diagnosis, but also the succe...

Insula and sensory insular cortex and somatosensory control in patients with insular stroke
ConclusionOur data allow the conclusion that the posterior IC may represent the major region responsible for encoding warm and cold perception in the brain. To what extent focal IC lesions may also impair pain processing or induce post‐stroke pain has to be addressed in future studies including more patients.

Headache linked with incidence of metabolic syndrome: Comment on migraine, headache and development of metabolic syndrome: An 11-year follow-up in the HUNT study
A considerable body of evidence from large-population studies has linked migraine, particularly with aura, to somewhat increased risk for stroke, coronary heart disease, and subclinical infarct-like lesions as well as to adverse risk profiles for cardiovascular disease (CVD), including hyperlipidemia, obesity, hypertension, and family history of premature CVD . Although the biological mechanisms remain uncertain, this area of research has importance for public health, especially because both migraine and CVD are common in the general population. Understanding the mechanisms that link migraine with various manifestations of...

Follow-up to ‘Cholecystectomy in the presence of a large patent foramen ovale: laparoscopic or open?’
We previously reported an obese patient with cholelithiasis and acute cholecystitis, who was scheduled to undergo an emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy, but was recognized preoperatively to have a large patent foramen ovale (PFO) with a right-to-left shunt that was open at rest . She also had concomitant choledocholithiasis, and she underwent an endoscopic sphincterotomy with prompt resolution of her fever and abdominal pain. At the time, the benefits of laparoscopy were weighed against the risk of paradoxical emboli and stroke, and the choice of either a laparoscopic or open cholecystectomy was discussed carefully wit...

Migraine, headache and development of metabolic syndrome: An 11-year follow-up in the Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT)
This study examined the incidence of metabolic syndrome and its relationship to migraine with and without aura and to nonmigraine headache. In the population-based the Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT), 19,895 individuals were followed for the development of metabolic syndrome, with a median follow-up time of 11.3years. Headache diagnoses were based on a validated headache questionnaire, and metabolic syndrome was based on a modified version of the National Cholesterol Education Program’s Adult Treatment Panel (ATP) III criteria, using objective anthropometric measurements and blood biochemistry. Using the Poisson regr...
