    Abstract Rhomboid intercostal block (RIB) is a novel plane block, which is thought to provide analgesia for both the anterior and the posterior hemithorax. Herein, we represent the successful usage of ultrasound-guided RIB on an infant patient to provide analgesia for multiple rib fractures and insertion of a chest tube. A 10-month-old, 8 kg, male infant was scheduled for insertion of a chest tube. The patient had right sided pneumothorax and multiple rib fractures from T4 to T8 after a car crush. Following induction of anaesthesia, he was placed in lateral decubitis position and RIB was performed with 8mL 0.125% bupivacaine. A paediatric epidural catheter was placed into the interfacial plane for post-operative intermittent local anaesthetic injection as a part of multimodal analgesia with administration of intravenous paracetamol 60 mg. The postoperative pain assessment was conducted with FLACC scale at the post-operative 10th minute, 30th minute, 1st, 2nd, 6th, 12th and 24th hours, and the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scale score was 2 at all time-points. Ultrasound-guided RIB provided effective analgesia for insertion of a chest tube and attenuation of pain due to multiple rib-fractures in our infant patient.

    Abstract Background and purpose: Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system, with myelin degeneration and Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) as the most common type. The aim of this study was to determine the levels of Neurofilament Light Chain (NFL) and Orexin-A (OXA) in patients with RRMS and compare it with healthy control subjects' data.
    Methods: In this case-control study of 61 subjects, serum and cerebrospinal fluid samples were collected from 23 RRMS patients and 38 healthy control subjects. NFL and OXA levels were determined in cerebrospinal fluid and serum samples using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. Self-reported questionnaires were also administered to evaluate fatigue severity and impact. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of NFL and OXA.
    Results: The NFL and OXA concentrations in cerebro-spinal fluid of RRMS patients were significantly higher than those of the control group (p < 0.001), but no sig-nificant difference was found in the serum concentrations (p = 0.842, p = 0.597, respectively). The cut-off values were found to be 1.194 ng/ml for NFL and 77.81 pg/ml for OXA in cerebrospinal fluid. A positive correlation was found between the Expanded Disability Status Scale and Epworth Sleepiness Scale in RRMS patients (ρ = 0.49, p = 0.045).
    Conclusion: These results suggest that increased levels of both NFL and OXA in cerebrospinal fluid reflect neuronal destruction in RRMS. Further research of neurodegeneration should focus on neuropeptides to determine the possible roles in RRMS pathogenesis.

    Abstract Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) causes significant postoperative pain. Oblique subcostal transversus abdominis plane(OSTAP) block was described for postoperative analgesia, especially for upper abdominal surgeries. Modified thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach(M-TAPA) block is a new technique defined by the modification of the thoracoabdominal nerves through perichondrial approach (TAPA) block, in which local anesthetics are delivered only to the underside of the perichondral surface. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of M-TAPA and OSTAP blocks as part of multimodal analgesia on postoperative opioid consumption in patients undergoing LC.
    Method: The present study was designed as a randomized, controlled, prospective study. Seventy-six adult patients undergoing LC were randomly assigned to receive either bilaterally M-TAPA or OSTAP block after the induction of anesthesia and before surgery using bupivacaine 0.25%, 25 ml. The primary outcome was assessed as postoperative 24 h opioid consumption, between groups were compared. Secondary outcomes were Numerical Rational scale(NRS) scores, time to first opioid analgesia, patient recovery, using the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) scale, nausea and vomiting, sedation score, metoclopramide consumption, and evaluating the analgesic range of dermatome.
    Results: The mean tramadol consumption at the postoperative 24th hour was higher in the group OSTAP than in group M-TAPA (P = 0.047). NRS movement score at 12th hour was statistically significantly lower in group M-TAPA than in group OSTAP (P = 0.044). Dermatomes showed intense sensory analgesia between T7-11 in both groups, and it was determined that there was proportionally more involvement in the group M-TAPA. There were no differences between the groups in terms of other results.
    Conclusions: After the LC surgery, ultrasound-guided M-TAPA block effectively reduced opioid consumption, postoperative pain, and QoR-15 scores similar to OSTAP block.
    Clinical trial registration: The study was registered prospectively at clinicaltrials.gov (trial ID: NCT05108129 on 4/11/2021).

    Abstract A 74-year- old male, who was known to have hypertension, chronic obstructive lung disease, and benign prostate hyperplasia, was evaluated preoperatively in our clinic for a femur fracture. In addition, it was found that the patient was using 1000 mg of metformin per oral due to type 2 diabetes. At the preoperative cardiology evaluation, the ejection fraction was 60% with normal systolic ventricular function. Routine laboratory tests were normal. Metformin was held 24 hours before surgery. Spinal anesthesia was applied with 10 mg bupivacaine and 20 mcg fentanyl. Total blood loss at surgery was 150 cc. After an uneventful surgery, the patient was observed at the surgical postanesthesia care unit. Cardiac and respiratory physical examinations seemed normal but the patient had minimal acidosis and hypoxia in the arterial blood gas analysis. Twelve hours after the operation, compensated high anion gap ( 30 mEq/l) metabolic acidosis emerged, but lactate was normal. The patient's urea and creatinine levels were normal in the control blood tests, and the patient's urine output was above 0.5 ml/kg. Within this period, glucose levels were around 80-140 mg/dl. To overcome metabolic acidosis, bolus intravenous 8.4 % bicarbonate solution was administered. Bicarbonate infusion was started on the continuation of metabolic acidosis and base loss despite the bolus bicarbonate treatment. Since there was no other reason for the metabolic acidosis, metformin usage was considered to cause metabolic acidosis. During this treatment period, despite high anion gap acidosis, there was no lactate elevation. The patient had normal laboratory and hemodynamic values and was discharged from the intensive care unit at postoperative Day 3.

    Abstract Objective: In obstetric patients' airway, guidelines have recommended the availability of advanced airway equipment. Our aim was to compare the larynx visualization provided by the Macintosh direct laryngoscope and McGrath video laryngoscope and the intubation time of patients undergoing cesarean section.
    Methods: This study was conducted at a private obstetrics and gynecology hospital during one month between June and July 2018. A hundred patients scheduled for elective cesarean section under general anesthesia were randomized into two different group's as intubated using either McGrath VL or Macintosh DL. The intubation times, Cormack-Lehane grade, percentage of glottic opening, mean arterial blood pressure, and heart rates before and after intubation were compared among the groups.
    Results: The McGrath VL significantly reduced the intubation time compared to the Macintosh DL. In the McGrath VL group, better glottic view set the time of tracheal intubation as assessed using the Cormack-Lehane classification system and POGO scores were recorded. After intubation, hemodynamic parameters were significantly higher in the Macintosh DL group than in the McGrath VL group.
    Conclusion: The McGrath VL significantly lowered intubation time relative to the Macintosh DL, which may be a critical finding considering the importance of maintaining the mother's airway for the health of both mother and baby.
