The Protective Effect of Dexmedetomidine Against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury after Hepatectomy: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Background: Hepatic inflow occlusion proceeded to reduce blood loss during hepatectomy induces ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in the remnant liver. Dexmedetomidine, a selective α2-adrenoceptor agonist used as an anesthetic adjuvant, has been shown to attenuate IR injury in preclinical and clinical...
