Background Hemodynamic instability during colonoscopy sedation remains a significant clinical concern. Esketamine’s sympathomimetic properties may protect against these risks while reducing sedative requirements. Hence, we aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of esketamine in improving intraprocedural sedation during colonoscopy. Methods We systematically searched PubMed, Scopus, CENTRAL, and Web of Science until June 2025...

Water pollution with potentially toxic elements (PTEs) becomes a major threat to the validity of that water for drinking and agriculture and hence human life. The current study aims to evaluate the carbonate aquifer groundwater PTE content, sources, and impact on water quality. To achieve this goal, drilling cutoff of two wells and 30 groundwater samples were collected and chemically analyzed. The groundwater has TDS values ra...
