Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparison of remimazolam tosilate and propofol during induction and maintenance of general anesthesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a prospective, single center, randomized controlled trial.
Remimazolam tosilate (RT) is a new, ultrashort-acting benzodiazepine. Here, we investigated the efficacy and safety of RT for general anesthesia in patients undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC). ⋯ Remimazolam tosilate can be safely and effectively used for general anesthesia in patients undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. It maintains stable hemodynamics during induction and maintenance of general anesthesia compared with propofol. Further studies are needed to validate the findings.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparisons of different general anesthetic techniques on immune function in patients undergoing flap reconstruction for oral cancer.
Anesthetic-induced immunosuppression is of particular interest in tumor surgery. This study aimed to investigate the influence of the 4 most common general anesthetic techniques on immune function in patients undergoing flap reconstruction for oral cancer. ⋯ These findings suggest that PD as a probably optimal choice can alleviate immunosuppression in patients undergoing flap reconstruction for oral cancer.

Observational Study
Accuracy of oscillometric noninvasive blood pressure at the ankle in the lateral position during general anesthesia.
This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of ankle blood pressure measurements in relation to invasive blood pressure in the lateral position. ⋯ In patients under general anesthesia in the lateral position, ankle blood pressure measurements are not interchangeable with the corresponding invasive measurements. However, an ankle MAP > 86 mmHg can exclude hypotension with 99% accuracy, and an ankle SBP < 144 mmHg can exclude hypertension with 95% accuracy.

Meta AnalysisRisk Factors for Postanesthetic Emergence Delirium in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Emergence delirium (ED) is delirium that occurs during or immediately after emergence from general anesthesia or sedation. Effective pharmacological treatments for ED are lacking, so preventive measures should be taken to minimize the risk of ED. However, the risk factors for ED in adults are unclear. ⋯ Postoperative risk factors were indwelling urinary catheters, the presence of a tracheal tube in the postanesthetic care unit or intensive care unit, the presence of a nasogastric tube, and pain. Knowledge of these risk factors may guide the implementation of stratified management and timely interventions for patients at high risk of ED. The majority of studies included in this review investigated only hyperactive ED and further research is required to determine risk factors for hypoactive and mixed ED types.

Review Meta Analysis
Effectiveness of preoxygenation strategies: a systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Preoxygenation is universally recommended before induction of general anaesthesia to prolong safe apnoea time. The optimal technique for preoxygenation is unclear. We conducted a systematic review to determine the preoxygenation technique associated with the greatest effectiveness in adult patients having general anaesthesia. ⋯ PROSPERO CRD42022326046.
