A large volume of literature has been published in the field of malignant hyperthermia (MH). However, no bibliometric studies have been conducted to describe the characteristics of highly cited articles on MH. Therefore, this study aims to identify the 100 most frequently cited articles about malignant hyperthermia, describe their characteristics, and investigate research trends. Searches were performed in Web of Science Core Collection, Google Scholar, and Scopus from January 1900 to March 2023, with no language limitation. The 100 most frequently cited articles were selected and analyzed. Characteristics including publication year, journal, impact factor, authors, authors countries, citation number, journal citation indicator, study design, and topics were analyzed. For the 100 most cited articles, the number of times each article was cited ranged from 84 to 1254, with a median of 133. The number of articles published peaked in the decade of 1990s (<i>n</i> = 30). The articles were published in 39 journals, with Anesthesiology leading with 13 publications and then the British Journal of Anaesthesia with 12 publications. The authors were from 21 countries, led by the United States (<i>n</i> = 37). Forty articles focused on genetic susceptibility screening, 27 articles were about MH etiology, and 11 articles were about diagnosis and treatment. The mortality rate of MH and dantrolene availability are known to be uneven worldwide. This may partly be explained by the fact that scientific publications primarily report by authors from developed countries. This bibliometric analysis highlights the characteristics of the most influential research related to malignant hyperthermia, providing a reference for conducting future research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100082,"journal":{"name":"Anesthesiology and Perioperative Science","volume":"1 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s44254-023-00030-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135816751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The maximum rate of the arterial pressure rise during systole (dP/dt<sub>MAX</sub>) has been proposed to assess left ventricular systolic function. The impact of underdamping on dP/dt<sub>MAX</sub> is likely but has never been quantified.</p><h3>Methods</h3><p>We analyzed data from 70 critically ill patients monitored with a radial catheter in whom underdamping of the arterial pressure waveform was confirmed by the Gardner’s method. Invasive SAP and dP/dt<sub>MAX</sub> were recorded at baseline and after the correction of underdamping with a resonance filter.</p><h3>Results</h3><p>With resonance filtering, SAP decreased from 159 ± 25 to 139 ± 22 mmHg (<i>p</i> < 0.001) and dP/dt<sub>MAX</sub> from 2.0 ± 0.6 to 1.1 ± 0.3 mmHg/ms (<i>p</i> < 0.001).

We included randomized controlled trials on sleep interventions and POD in adult surgery patients. The screening of titles, abstracts, and full texts was performed independently by two reviewers. Another two reviewers independently performed the data extraction and assessed the risk of bias. Pooled-effect estimates were calculated with a random effect model. Our primary outcome was POD, which was assessed with the confusion assessment method (CAM), CAM for the intensive care unit (CAM-ICU), or other delirium assessment tools. We used trial sequential analysis to control for type I and II statistical errors. We also conducted prespecified subgroup analyses, according to the type of intervention, efficacy of the intervention on postoperative sleep, sample size, participant age, delirium assessment tool used, and the type of surgery. Data were obtained from 25 trials, including 4799 participants. Sleep interventions had a statistically significant difference in the incidence of POD (relative risk (RR) = 0.60; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.46–0.77; I<sup>2</sup> = 58%).

To answer these questions, we searched Medline, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library through July 18, 2022, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of CT in surgical patients with general anesthesia reporting cognitive outcomes, and found 13 studies including 989 patients. Pooled analysis showed that CT could significantly reduce the incidence of POCD (k=7, RR=0.52, 95% confidence interval (CI)=[0.34–0.78]), especially for the noncardiac surgery population (k=4, RR=0.43 [0.29–0.63], <i>P<</i>0.01, I<sup>2</sup> =0%).
