Artemisia annua sublingual immunotherapy for seasonal allergic rhinitis: a randomized controlled trial: AbstractBackgroundArtemisia annua is an important autumnal pollen allergen for seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) in northern China. To date no study has investigated allergen immunotherapy with Artemisia annua. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and mechanisms underlying Artemisia annua‐sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT).MethodsThis was a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled phase III clinical...

Food allergy immunotherapy: OIT and EPIT: AbstractIgE mediated food allergy remains a significant and growing problem across the globe. Of the various treatment modalities, oral immunotherapy (OIT) and epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT) have been the best studied. Across various studies of OIT for egg, milk and peanut allergy, strong levels of desensitization have been shown. With egg and peanut OIT, a limited remission, or sustained unresponsiveness (SU), has further been demonstrated. These advances...

Efficacy and safety of treatment with biologicals (benralizumab, dupilumab, mepolizumab, omalizumab and reslizumab) for severe eosinophilic asthma: AbstractFive biologicals have been approved for severe eosinophilic asthma, a well‐recognised phenotype. Systematic reviews (SR) evaluated the efficacy and safety of benralizumab, dupilumab, mepolizumab, omalizumab and reslizumab (alphabetical order) compared to standard of care for severe eosinophilic asthma.Pubmed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library were searched...

Interleukin 10: the critical role of a pleiotropic cytokine in food allergy: Publication date: Available online 8 February 2020Source: Allergologia et ImmunopathologiaAuthor(s): Natalia Nedelkopoulou, Anil Dhawan, Ioannis Xinias, Dimos Gidaris, Evangelia FarmakiAbstractDespite advances in research, the pathophysiology of food allergy has not yet been fully elucidated. IL-10 has both a pro- and anti-inflammatory effect on the development of food allergy and in order to understand its different immune-modulatory...

Microbiome‐Skin‐Brain Axis: A Novel Paradigm for Cutaneous Wounds: ABSTRACTChronic wounds cause a significant burden on society financially, medically, and psychologically. Unfortunately, patients with non‐healing wounds often suffer from comorbidities that further compound their disability. Given the high rate of depressive symptoms experienced by patients with chronic wounds, further studies are needed to investigate the potentially linked pathophysiological changes in wounds and depression in...

The effect of intravenous magnesium on postoperative morphine consumption in noncardiac surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis: BACKGROUND Several studies suggest that systemic magnesium reduces postoperative opioid consumption and the intensity of pain, but others report conflicting results. The efficacy and safety profile of intravenous magnesium in noncardiac surgery remain uncertain.OBJECTIVES The aim of this review was to investigate the effect of intravenous...

Spontaneous recovery of neuromuscular blockade is an independent risk factor for postoperative pulmonary complications after abdominal surgery: A secondary analysis: BACKGROUND In intermediate-to-high-risk patients, major abdominal surgery is associated with a high incidence of postoperative complications, mainly pulmonary. Neuromuscular blocking drugs have been suggested as a contributing factor, but this remains unproven.OBJECTIVE To define the relationship of neuromuscular blockade management...

Postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade after reversal based on a qualitative peripheral nerve stimulator response: A randomised controlled trial: BACKGROUND Incomplete recovery of neuromuscular blockade is a common postoperative adverse event in the postanaesthesia care unit.OBJECTIVE We examined and compared the incidence of residual neuromuscular blockade when the recommended dose of neostigmine or sugammadex was administered according to a qualitative nerve stimulator response.DESIGN A...

Data-science-based subgroup analysis of persistent pain during 3 years after breast cancer surgery: A prospective cohort study: BACKGROUND Persistent pain extending beyond 6 months after breast cancer surgery when adjuvant therapies have ended is a recognised phenomenon. The evolution of postsurgery pain is therefore of interest for future patient management in terms of possible prognoses for distinct groups of patients to enable better patient information.OBJECTIVE(S) An analysis aimed to identify...

Deep neuromuscular blockade during spinal surgery reduces intra-operative blood loss: A randomised clinical trial: BACKGROUND Spinal surgery is usually performed in the prone position using a posterior approach. However, the prone position may cause venous engorgement in the back and thus increase surgical bleeding with interruption of surgery. The prone position also affects cardiac output since large vessels are compressed decreasing venous return to the heart.OBJECTIVE We hypothesised that deep...

Evaluation of autologous retransfusion from a closed suction drainage system for patient blood management in elective total hip and knee replacement: A two cohort study: BACKGROUND Postoperative autologous retransfusion of drainage blood might reduce the transfusion of red blood cell concentrates after major orthopaedic surgery.OBJECTIVES Our primary objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of a blood collection and retransfusion system. Secondary objectives included safety issues and the quality...

Fibrinolytic shutdown diagnosed with rotational thromboelastometry represents a moderate form of coagulopathy associated with transfusion requirement and mortality: A retrospective analysis: BACKGROUND Viscoelastic techniques have made it possible to describe specific fibrinolytic phenotypes (physiological, hyperfibrinolysis and shutdown) and to establish a relationship of these phenotypes with outcome. However, there remains a debate as to whether shutdown is a state of hypercoagulability or rather...

Synergistic effect of the association between lidocaine and magnesium sulfate on peri-operative pain
Synergistic effect of the association between lidocaine and magnesium sulfate on peri-operative pain after mastectomy: A randomised, double-blind trial: BACKGROUND Recently, the use of venous adjuvants, such as lidocaine and magnesium sulfate, has been gaining ground in multimodal analgesia. However, no study has evaluated the impact a combination of the two drugs.OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy of venous adjuvants in reducing opioid consumption and pain scores after mastectomy.DESIGN Randomised,...

Regional anaesthesia practice for arteriovenous fistula formation surgery: SummaryWe conducted a survey and semi‐structured qualitative interviews to investigate current anaesthetic practice for arteriovenous fistula formation surgery in the UK. Responses were received from 39 out of 59 vascular centres where arteriovenous access surgery is performed, a response rate of 66%. Thirty‐five centres reported routine use of brachial plexus blocks, but variation in anaesthetic skill‐mix and practice were...
