Effect of High-Flow Oxygen on Exercise Performance in COPD Patients. Randomized Trial

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Background: High-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) provides oxygen-enriched, humidified, and heated air at high flow rates via nasal cannula. It could be an alternative to low-flow oxygen therapy (LFOT) which is commonly used by patients with chronic ...

Visuomotor performance at high altitude in COPD patients. Randomized placebo-controlled trial of acetazolamide

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Introduction: We evaluated whether exposure to high altitude impairs visuomotor learning in lowlanders with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and whether this can be prevented by acetazolamide treatment.Methods: 45 patients with COPD, living ...

Pre-referral rectal artesunate is no “magic bullet” in weak health systems

BMC Medicine, 2023
Severe malaria is a potentially fatal condition that requires urgent treatment. In a clinical trial, a sub-group of children treated with rectal artesunate (RAS) before being referred to a health facility had an increased chance of survival.

Effectiveness of rectal artesunate as pre-referral treatment for severe malaria in children under 5 years of age: a multi-country observational study

BMC Medicine, 2022
Background To prevent child deaths from severe malaria, early parenteral treatment is essential. Yet, in remote rural areas, accessing facilities offering parenteral antimalarials may be difficult.
