Abstract
Dental anxiety is one the most important reasons preventing children to enjoy dental services. Several methods can be applied in order to reduce dental anxiety and manage children’s behavior. Both dentists and parents mostly prefer not to use medications. However to treat anxious children, those with systemic disease or movement disorders, sedation or general anesthesia can be beneficial. In this review, both sedation and general anesthesia has been described and the literature was searched for studies comparing these methods. We did not find any randomized clinical trials comparing general anesthesia to sedation for the provision of dental care in children. There were a few publications comparing any form of sedation to GA using other methodologies. We proposed some suggestion for designing a precise randomized clinical trial

Abstract
Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecys-tectomy with general anesthesia is very common. According to the risks of general anesthesia and its effects on respiratory indices, epidural anesthesia as a safe substitute is used instead of general anesthesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. This study has been conducted to compare respiratory effects of these two methods of anesthesia on respiratory indices in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients.
Materials & methods: This study is randomized clinical trial (equivalent study) that has been performed in two groups of laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients anesthesized either by general anesthesia method or epidural method. In both groups respiratory indices were measured before, during and after the surgery and then compared and analyzed using SPSS version 20.
Findings: PaO2, SpO2 and PaCO2were lower in general anesthesia group than the epidural group (P<0.005) intraop-eratively. However after surgery there were no differences between the two groups (P=0.07). Using variance an-alysis, successive measurements in controlling sex and basic SpO2 in two groups were meaningfully different (p<0.05).
Discussions & conclusions: Intrao-peratively using epidural method for laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients causes little change in respiratory indices compare to general anesthesia technique, but after surgery there is no such a difference between two groups and according to patient preference and physician each can be used.

Abstract
Introduction: Cesarean section surgery has grown globally in the past decade, using general and intraspinal anesthesia methods, which significantly influence newborn Apgar scores. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim of comparing the Apgar scores of newborns after cesarean section by induction of general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia in Rafsanjan city from 2018 to 2019.
Materials & Methods: This study is a double-blind randomized clinical trial that was conducted on 69 pregnant mothers through available sampling. Participants were divided into two groups, the first group (n=34) was induced under general anesthesia with 1-2 mg/kg of Ketamine along with 2 mg/kg of Propofol. The second group (n=35) underwent spinal anesthesia with 5 mg Bupivacaine 5%. In order to compare the Apgar score of newborns in two methods of general anesthesia and intraspinal anesthesia, in minutes 1, 5, 10, and 15, a two-way repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni's test were used. Data analyzed by SPSS V.21 at the significance level of 0.05.
Results: Using the repeated measures ANOVA, found that the average Apgar score of the babies in the two groups that underwent general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia did not have a significant difference (P=0.213). However, the increase in Apgar scores over time was statistically significant (P < 0.001), meaning that in both groups, regardless of the anesthesia method, over time, the Apgar score increased.
Conclusion: There is no significant relationship between the choice of anesthesia method and the Apgar score of newborns in women candidates for caesarean section.
