Does preoperative pregabalin reduce propofol ED ( 50 ) : a randomized controlled trial?
Preoperative pregabalin does not reduce propofol requirements in a population of healthy young women undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic procedures. This study failed to show a pre-induction anxiolytic effect of pregabalin in such a population. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01158859).
Long-term results confirmed that partial ureteral obstruction in newborn mice produces fibrotic lesions of the renal parenchyma, which are not correlated with dilatation of the upper tract. These results could contribute to the clinical management of obstructive uropathy in children, emphasizing that follow up with simple evaluation of upper tract dilatation is insufficient to predict renal deterioration.
