Randomized Controlled Trial
Mannitol for prevention of acute kidney injury after liver transplantation: a randomized controlled trial.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after liver transplantation, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore, this study investigated mannitol as an oxygen-free radical scavenger and its role in the prevention of early AKI after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). ⋯ Pan African Clinical Trials Registry (PACTR202203622900599); https://pactr.samrc.ac.za/TrialDisplay.aspx?TrialID=21511 .

Randomized Controlled Trial
The efficacy of ultrasound-guided anterior quadratus lumborum block for pain management following lumbar spinal surgery: a randomized controlled trial.
Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) is a fascial plane block. There is no randomized study on the efficacy of QLB for lumbar surgery. We evaluated the efficacy of QLB for postoperative pain management and patient satisfaction after lumbar disc herniation surgery (LDHS). ⋯ We found that the QLB is effective for pain control following LDHS.

Examining the impact perceptual learning artificial-intelligence-based on the incidence of paresthesia when performing the ultrasound-guided popliteal sciatic block: simulation-based randomized study.
To explore the impact of artificial-intelligence perceptual learning when performing the ultrasound-guided popliteal sciatic block. ⋯ CHiCTR2200055115 , registered on 1/ January /2022.

The Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology recommends a multimodal analgesia regimen for cesarean delivery analgesia. This study aimed to compare the analgesic effects of tramadol alone and combined with butorphanol or flurbiprofen axetil after a cesarean section. ⋯ Combining tramadol and flurbiprofen axetil could enhance the analgesic effect and be safely used for analgesia after a cesarean section. However, combining tramadol and butorphanol may produce an antagonistic effect.

Postpartum depression (PPD) is a serious complication commonly seen in postnatal women. In this paper, an investigation was conducted to see if obstetric anesthesia clinic childbirth course combined with labor epidural analgesia (LEA) was associated with a decreased risk of PPD. ⋯ Received an obstetrics anesthesia clinic childbirth course combined with LEA for nulliparous women with a single term cephalic pregnancy was associated with a decreased risk of PPD at 6 weeks.
