Meta AnalysisThe effectiveness of scalp nerve block on hemodynamic response in craniotomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials.
Strategies that blunt noxious stimuli and stabilize hemodynamics may reduce perioperative cardiovascular complications and enhance recovery after craniotomy. ⋯ SNB alleviated the craniotomy-associated hemodynamic response. SNB may be superior to scalp infiltration in maintaining hemodynamic stability during pin insertion. However, high-quality trials are still needed to provide more conclusive evidence.

Efficacy of Nalbuphine as a Local Anesthetic Adjuvant for Brachial Plexus Block: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Nalbuphine has been increasingly used as a local anesthetic adjuvant to extend the duration of analgesia in brachial plexus block (BPB). ⋯ Perineural use of nalbuphine in BPB is an effective strategy for analgesia in adult patients undergoing upper extremity surgery.

Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is the main cause of low back pain and/or radiculopathy. Currently, epidural intervention is a widely used and effective conservative treatment method for managing low back and radicular pain caused by LDH. ⋯ In short-term and intermediate-term follow-up, the PIL approach has the highest probability for pain relief and functional improvement.
