Review Meta Analysis Comparative Study
The sedative effects of the intranasal administration of dexmedetomidine in children undergoing surgeries compared to other sedation methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Administration of intranasal dexmedetomidine for sedation is comfortable and effective in children who are afraid of needles, and it offers efficient sedation similar to that of intravenous administration. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the clinical effects of the pre-procedural administration of intranasal dexmedetomidine. ⋯ This review suggests that intranasal dexmedetomidine is associated with better sedative effects than oral benzodiazepines without producing respiratory depression, but it had a significantly delayed onset of effects.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Dose ranging effects of pregabalin on pain in patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy: A randomized, double blinded, placebo controlled, clinical trial.
The study aimed to investigate the preemptive analgesia efficacy of different concentrations (75, 150 and 300mg) of preemptive pregabalin for the postoperative pain management after laparoscopic hysterectomy. ⋯ Our data demonstrated preemptive administration of 75, 150, and 300mg pregabalin play an important role in reducing postoperative pain after laparoscopic hysterectomy. Comparison of different concentrations and side effects indicates oral administration of 150mg pregabalin is an effective and safe method for postoperative pain management after laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Effect of propofol, sevoflurane, and isoflurane on postoperative cognitive dysfunction following laparoscopic cholecystectomy in elderly patients: A randomized controlled trial.
To compare the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly surgical patients (>60years) receiving different anesthetics (propofol, sevoflurane, or isoflurane) and to identify potential biomarkers of POCD in this patient population. ⋯ Propofol anesthesia may be an option for elderly surgical patients.
