  • Effects of Prophylactic Ketamine and Pethidine to Control Postanesthetic Shivering: a Comparative Study
    Biomedical Research and Therapy, 5(12):2898-2903 Original Research Effects of prophylactic ketamine and pethidine to control postanesthetic shivering: A comparative study Masoum Khoshfetrat1, Ali Rosom Jalali2, Gholamreza Komeili3, Aliakbar Keykha4;∗ ABSTRACT Background: Shivering is an undesirable complication following general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia, whose early control can reduce postoperative metabolic and respiratory complications. Therefore, this study aims to compare the effects of prophylactic injection of ketamine and pethi- dine on postoperative shivering.Methods: This double-blind clinical trial was performed on 105 patients with short-term orthopedic and ENT surgery. The patients were randomly divided into three groups; 20 minutes before the end of the surgery, 0.4 mg/kg of pethidine was injected to the first group, 0.5 mg/kg of ketamine was injected to the second group, and normal saline was injected to the third group. After the surgery, the tympanic membrane temperature was measured at 0, 10, 20, and 30 minutes. The shivering was also measured by a four-point grading from zero (no shiv- ering) to four (severe shivering). Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA, Kruskal Wallis, Chi-square 1Doctor of Medicine (MD), Fellow of and Pearson correlation. Results: The mean age of patients was 35.811.45 years in the ketamine Critical Care Medicine (FCCM), group, 34.811.64 years in the normal saline group, and 33.1110.5 years in the pethidine group. Department of Anesthesiology and The one-way ANOVA showed no significant difference in the mean age between the three groups Critical Care, Khatam-Al-Anbiya (P=0.645).

  • 2. the Diagnosis of Brain Death Applied to the Brainstem Death Concept and the Whole Brain Death Concept
    BRAIN DEATH DIAGNOSIS Index: • 1. The concepts and definitions of brain death • 2. The diagnosis of brain death applied to the brainstem death concept and the whole brain death concept 1 Subject 1. The concepts and definitions of brain death. Section 1: Introduction At present, the main difficulty involved in the development of organ transplant programs is the insufficient amount of organs available for transplantation. Organ supply still proceeds mainly from brain dead deceased. For this reason, the brain death diagnosis is an essential step for the procurement of organs for transplantation. Brain death diagnosis is not only the responsibility of transplant co-coordinators. Therefore all health professionals involved in the donation-transplantation process must have enough knowledge of all the ethical and social aspects besides the concepts of brain death. This information will help them to: 1. Improve the information on brain death, needed to increase transplant programs, 2. Improve the approach towards the potential donors' relatives, giving accurate answers to the questions that they may have concerning brain death, 3. Assess all health professionals not acquainted with the diagnostic methods of brain death, 4. Collaborate logistically (instrument management, serum drug levels, etc.) in difficult cases that may need more atypical methods of diagnosis, and 5. Comprehend the ethical aspects of death diagnosis, since nowadays brain death is synonymous of death; therefore all patients diagnosed with brain death must not be underwent to any further measures to prolong their lives. Section 2: Death. Death as a process Biologically, the death of a human being is not an instantaneous but an evolutionary process through which the different organ functions are gradually extinguished, ending when all the body's cells irreversibly cease to function.

  • Muscular Hyperactivity After General Anaesthesia
    MUSCULAR HYPERACTIVITY AFTER GENERAL ANAESTHESIA MAGDIG. SOLIMA~,M.B., n.crl.,* and Dr_ara~lm M. M. CmLmS, wx.B., c~.~.* MvsctrzA~ HYPEr~,CrlWTY during recovery from general anaesthesia variously termed "spasticity, .... shivering," and "shakes," has been described by several authors and has been particularly related to halothane. 1~ Several mechanisms have been suggested in explanation including heat loss, t respiratory alkalosis, a early recovery of spinal reflex activity) at~d sympathetic overactivity.7 The re- ported incidence varies from 5 per cent to 70 per centa.s and this suggests that perhaps different phenomena are being described. Having noticed that some patients seemed to show true shivering whilst others showed intense muscular spasticity during emergence from general anaesthesia, this study was designed to try to elucidate whether there were, indeed, two dis- tinct phenomena, what was their incidence, and whether they were specifically i~lated to halothane anaesthesia. Spasticity was defined as sustained muscular hypertonieity most easily ob- served in jaw, neck and pectoral muscles, flexors of the upper limbs, and ex- tensors and adductors of the lower limbs. Shivering, on the other hand, was a rhythmic contraction of muscle groups with irregular intermittent periods of relaxation. METHODS The recovery of 215 unselected patients who had been anaesthetised for a wide variety of surgical procedures, both elective and emergent, was studied. Pre- medication was given one hour pre-operatively in the usual dosage, using ani- leridine and promethazine in the large majority. Induction was with thiolmntone. The largest group (I25) received halothane as the main agent, 50 received methuxyflurane, 20 cyelopropane, and 29 nitrous oxide, meperidine relaxant.

  • Mapping and Exome Sequencing Identifies a Mutation in the IARS Gene As the Cause of Hereditary Perinatal Weak Calf Syndrome
    Mapping and Exome Sequencing Identifies a Mutation in the IARS Gene as the Cause of Hereditary Perinatal Weak Calf Syndrome Takashi Hirano1,2*, Naohiko Kobayashi3, Tamako Matsuhashi3, Daisaku Watanabe4, Toshio Watanabe5, Akiko Takasuga5, Mayumi Sugimoto5, Yoshikazu Sugimoto1 1 Shirakawa Institute of Animal Genetics, Fukushima, Japan, 2 Laboratory of Animal Physiology, Faculty of Agriculture, Tokyo University of Agriculture, Kanagawa, Japan, 3 Hida Beef Cattle Research Department, Gifu Prefectural Livestock Research Institute, Gifu, Japan, 4 School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, Kitasato University, Aomori, Japan, 5 National Livestock Breeding Center, Fukushima, Japan Abstract We identified an IARS (isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase) c.235G.C (p.Val79Leu) substitution as the causative mutation for neonatal weakness with intrauterine growth retardation (perinatal weak calf syndrome). In Japanese Black cattle, the syndrome was frequently found in calves sired by Bull A. Hence, we employed homozygosity mapping and linkage analysis. In order to identify the perinatal weak calf syndrome locus in a 4.04-Mb region of BTA 8, we analysed a paternal half-sibling family with a BovineSNP50 BeadChip and microsatellites. In this critical region, we performed exome sequencing to identify a causative mutation. Three variants were detected as possible candidates for causative mutations that were predicted to disrupt the protein function, including a G.C (p.Val79Leu) mutation in IARS c.235. The IARS c.235G.C mutation was not a homozygous risk allele in the 36 healthy offspring of Bull A. Moreover, the IARS Val79 residue and its flanking regions were evolutionarily and highly conserved. The IARS mutant (Leu79) had decreased aminoacylation activity. Additionally, the homozygous mutation was not found in any of 1526 healthy cattle.

Mulder, MD, PhD12 and Peter M. van Hasselt, MD, PhD1 Purpose: Pathogenic variations in genes encoding aminoacyl- with unreported compound heterozygous pathogenic variations in tRNA synthetases (ARSs) are increasingly associated with human IARS, LARS, KARS, and QARS extended the common phenotype disease. Clinical features of autosomal recessive ARS deficiencies with lung disease, hypoalbuminemia, anemia, and renal tubulo- appear very diverse and without apparent logic. We searched for pathy. common clinical patterns to improve disease recognition, insight Conclusion: We propose a common clinical phenotype for recessive into pathophysiology, and clinical care. ARS deficiencies, resulting from insufficient aminoacylation activity Methods: Symptoms were analyzed in all patients with recessive to meet translational demand in specific organs or periods of life. ARS deficiencies reported in literature, supplemented with Assuming residual ARS activity, adequate protein/amino acid supply unreported patients evaluated in our hospital. seems essential instead of the traditional replacement of protein by Results: In literature, we identified 107 patients with AARS, glucose in patients with metabolic diseases. DARS, GARS, HARS, IARS, KARS, LARS, MARS, RARS, SARS, VARS, YARS, and QARS deficiencies.
