Hysteroscopic surgery is a safe procedure used for diagnosing and treating intrauterine lesions, with a low rate of intraoperative complications. However, it is important to be cautious as fluid overload can still occur when performing any hysteroscopic surgical technique. ⋯ This case report underscores the significance of early detection and intervention in preventing complications associated with fluid overload during hysteroscopic myomectomy procedures.

To date, the relationship between the Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE) monitoring indicator tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting(CABG) patients remains unknown. The main objective of this study was to explore the relationship between the TAPSE and the incidence of AKI in CABG patients. ⋯ The TAPSE was not significantly correlated with postoperative AKI incidence and could not predict the early occurrence of postoperative AKI in CABG patients. TEE needs more evaluation for clinical efficacy of predicting the early occurrence of postoperative AKI in isolated CABG.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Conventional versus high-voltage, long-term pulse Radiofrequency of ganglion impar in perineal pain with advanced rectal cancer: a Randomized, double-blind controlled trial.
Advanced rectal cancer is a common cause of perineal pain and research on the use of radiofrequency therapy for the treatment of this pain is limited. In the present study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of conventional radiofrequency (CRF) and high-voltage long-term pulsed radiofrequency (H-PRF) of radiofrequency therapy in the management of perineal pain in advanced rectal cancer. ⋯ Our results demonstrate that application of CRF and H-PRF in ganglion impar to reduce perineal pain and improve the quality of life of patients with advanced rectal cancer is safe and effective. However, the long-term effect of CRF is better compared with that of H-PRF.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Assessing the clinical advantage of opioid-reduced anesthesia in thoracoscopic sympathectomy: a prospective randomized controlled trial.
Opioid-reduced multimodal analgesia has been used clinically for many years to decrease the perioperative complications associated with opioid drugs. We aimed to assess the clinical effects of opioid-reduced anesthesia during thoracoscopic sympathectomy. ⋯ In minimally invasive surgeries such as thoracoscopic sympathectomy, opioid-reduced anesthesia was found to be safe and effective; however, this method did not demonstrate clinical advantages.

Sepsis is associated with a high incidence and mortality and poses a significant challenge to the treatment. Although esmolol has shown promise in sepsis treatment, its efficacy and safety remain contentious. This meta-analysis aims to clarify the role of esmolol in sepsis management. ⋯ Esmolol reduces 28-day mortality, length of ICU stay and duration of mechanical ventilation in sepsis patients. Furthermore, esmolol improves oxygen metabolism, mitigates myocardial injury and decreases heart rate without significantly affecting hemodynamic parameters.
