'''Is it anti-inflammatory circulating EVs?'''. There are three papers on MedLine related to ketamine and EVs, none of which look (anti-)inflammatory molecules. Do circulating EVs after propofol anesthetic also contain the inflammatory cytokines that are seen after isoflurane? | + | *Hamilton and I talked about why ketamine causes lasting changes in the brain long after the drug is gone.
