Joint Estimation Using Quadratic Estimating Function by Y. Liang, A. Thavaneswaran, B. Abraham

“…However, when the information about the first four conditional moments of the observed process becomes available, the quadratic estimating functions are more informative. In this paper, a general framework for joint estimation of conditional mean and variance parameters in time series models using quadratic estimating functions is developed. …”

Comparison of the safety of remimazolam and propofol during general anesthesia in elderly patients: systematic review and meta-analysis by Xianchun Liu, Longyi Zhang, Li Zhao, Xuelei Zhou, Wei Mao, Linlin Chen, Hongyu Zhu, Ying Xie, Linji Li

“…Among other secondary outcomes, the remimazolam group had lower incidences of injection site pain, nausea and vomiting, and hypoxemia compared to the propofol group, and also had a shorter extubation time.ConclusionIn this meta-analysis, compared to propofol, remimazolam reduced the incidence of hypotension, bradycardia, and injection site pain during general anesthesia in elderly patients. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were more stable after induction. …”
