Journal ArticleDOI
A Critical Role for Murine Complement Regulator Crry in Fetomaternal Tolerance
TL;DR: The regulation of complement is critical in fetal control of maternal processes that mediate tissue damage and survival of Crry-/- embryos was compromised because of complement deposition and concomitant placenta inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevention of Intraoperative Awareness in a High-Risk Surgical Population
Michael S. Avidan,Eric Jacobsohn,David B. Glick,Beth A. Burnside,Lini Zhang,Alex Villafranca,Leah Karl,Saima Kamal,Brian A. Torres,Alex S. Evers,Stephen Gradwohl,Nan Lin,Ben J.A. Palanca,George A. Mashour +13 more
TL;DR: The superiority of the Bis protocol was not established; contrary to expectations, fewer patients in the ETAC group than in the BIS group experienced awareness; and there was no difference between the groups with respect to the amount of anesthesia administered or the rate of major postoperative adverse outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Electroencephalography-Guided Anesthetic Administration on Postoperative Delirium Among Older Adults Undergoing Major Surgery: The ENGAGES Randomized Clinical Trial.
Troy S. Wildes,Angela M. Mickle,Arbi Ben Abdallah,Hannah R. Maybrier,Jordan Oberhaus,Thaddeus P. Budelier,Alex Kronzer,Sherry L. McKinnon,Daniel Park,Brian A. Torres,Thomas J. Graetz,Daniel A.

TL;DR: Among older adults undergoing major surgery, EEG- guided anesthetic administration, compared with usual care, did not decrease the incidence of postoperative delirium, and this finding does not support the use of EEG-guided anesthetic Administration for this indication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of Perioperative Risk Factors and Cumulative Duration of Low Bispectral Index with Intermediate-term Mortality after Cardiac Surgery in the B-Unaware Trial
Miklos D. Kertai,Nirvik Pal,Ben J.A. Palanca,Nan Lin,Sylvia A. Searleman,Lini Zhang,Beth A. Burnside,Kevin J. Finkel,Michael S. Avidan +8 more
TL;DR: This study found an association between cumulative duration of low BIS and mortality in the setting of cardiac surgery, independent of both volatile anesthetic concentration and duration of anesthesia, suggesting that intermediate-term mortality after cardiac surgery was not causally related to excessive anesthetic dose.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bispectral index monitoring, duration of bispectral index below 45, patient risk factors, and intermediate-term mortality after noncardiac surgery in the B-Unaware Trial.
Miklos D. Kertai,Ben J.A. Palanca,Nirvik Pal,Beth A. Burnside,Lini Zhang,Furqaan Sadiq,Kevin J. Finkel,Michael S. Avidan +7 more
TL;DR: This study found no evidence that either cumulative BIS values below a threshold of 40 or 45 or cumulative inhalational anesthetic dose is injurious to patients, and the hypothesis that limiting depth of anesthesia either by titration to a specific BIS threshold or by limiting end-tidal volatile agent concentrations will decrease postoperative mortality is supported.
