Adenosine has not been compared to other local anaesthetics adjuvants. In the present study we aimed to compare the effect of adding magnesium sulphate and adenosine to bupivacaine for pectoral nerves block. Patients and Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 90 females scheduled for breast surgery were included. Patients were divided into three groups. Patients received general anaesthesia with pectoral nerves block. Group C, A, and M had bupivacaine only, bupivacaine + adenosine, and bupivaciane + magnesium sulphate respectively. Post-operative visual analogue score, block duration, post-operative morphine consumption, sedation score, and peri-operative haemodynamic changes were recorded. Results: Visual analog score was lower in Group M compared to other groups. Group A and M showed significant longer duration of the block. Group M showed significant longer duration of action than Group A (p = 0.034). The total peri-operative morphine used was higher in Group C (p 0.05). Conclusions: Local anaesthetic adjuvants such as adenosine or magnesium sulphate can improve pectoral nerves block characteristics. Magnesium sulphate has an advantage over adenosine by increasing the block duration.展开更多

We analyse here how they influence the performances in PECa cells having a photo-anode based on Au-modified TiOnanotube(TNT) arrays, with the aim of developing design criteria to optimize the photo-anode and the PECa cell configuration for water photo-electrolysis(splitting) and ethanol photo-reforming processes.The TNT samples were prepared by controlled anodic oxidation of Ti foils and then decorated with gold nanoparticles using different techniques to enhance the visible light response through heterojunction and plasmonic effects. The activity tests were made in a gas-phase reactor, as well as in a PECa cell without applied bias. Results were analysed in terms of photo-generated current, Hproduction rate and photoconversion efficiency. Particularly, a solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of 0.83% and a Faradaic efficiency of 91%were obtained without adding sacrificial reagents.展开更多
