In the human brain and spinal cord, neurons degenerate after acute insults (eg, stroke,
cardiac arrest, trauma) and during progressive, adult-onset diseases [eg, amyotrophic lateral …

Background Brief isoflurane anesthesia induces neuroapoptosis in the developing rodent
brain, but susceptibility of non-human primates to the apoptogenic action of isoflurane has not …

Introduction The Glidescope video laryngoscope has been shown to be a useful tool to
improve laryngeal view. However, its role in the daily routine of airway management remains …

Background Video laryngoscopy may be useful in the setting of the difficult airway, but it
remains unclear if intubation success is improved in routine difficult airway management. This …

Background Exposure of rhesus macaque fetuses for 24 h or neonates for 9 h to ketamine
anesthesia causes neuroapoptosis in the developing brain. The current study clarifies the …

Objective: Previously we reported that exposure of 6‐day‐old (P6) rhesus macaques to
isoflurane for 5 hours triggers a robust neuroapoptosis response in developing brain. We have …

The neonatal striatum degenerates after hypoxia–ischemia (H‐I). We tested the hypothesis
that damage to astrocytes and loss of glutamate transporters accompany striatal …

OBJECTIVE: To compare the direct and indirect (video monitor) views of the glottic opening
using a new Macintosh blade that is modified to provide a video image of airway structures …

Background: The authors have previously shown that exposure of the neonatal nonhuman
primate (NHP) brain to isoflurane for 5 h causes widespread acute apoptotic degeneration of …

Large hemispheric infarction (LHI), also known as malignant middle cerebral infarction, is a
devastating disease associated with significant disability and mortality. Clinicians and family …
