Repeat Expansions in PLIN4 Cause Autosomal Dominant Vacuolar Myopathy With Sarcolemmal Features
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective We aim to describe and characterize two unrelated Spanish families suffering from an autosomal dominant autophagic vacuolar myopathy caused by repeat expansions in PLIN4. Methods We evaluated the clinical phenotype and muscle imaging, and performed a genetic workup that included exome sequencing, muscle RNAseq, and long‐read genome ...

Systolic blood pressure reduction during the first 24 h in acute heart failure admission: friend or foe? [PDF]
, 2018 Aims: Changes in systolic blood pressure (SBP) during an admission for acute heart failure (AHF), especially those leading to hypotension, have been suggested to increase the risk for adverse outcomes.

, 2016 Acute respiratory failure accounts for 25–40 % of ICU admissions and carries a mortality rate of 30 % or more. In this chapter, we classify acute respiratory failure in two main types, based on their primary physiologic abnormality: Disorders of the airways, where increase of airway resistance to gas flow determines pharmacologic treatment and ...

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2018 Importance High-flow nasal oxygen therapy is increasingly used for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). Objective To determine whether high-flow oxygen therapy decreases mortality among immunocompromised patients with AHRF compared with standard ...

NOTCH2NLC Repeat Expansions in Parkinsonian Disorders: Clinical and Neuroimaging Characteristics
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by NOTCH2NLC GGC repeat expansions, with heterogeneous clinical manifestations, including parkinsonism. Recent studies have identified NOTCH2NLC repeat expansions in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and atypical parkinsonism (aPM), suggesting ...

Weaning from the ventilator in patients with respiratory failure [PDF]
, 1994 Weaning from the ventilator is the gradual withdrawal of mechanical ventilatory support. Mechanical ventilation is well-accepted as rescue therapy in patients with life-threatening respiratory failure.

The Diverse Neuromuscular Spectrum of VPS13A Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective VPS13A disease (chorea‐acanthocytosis) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by biallelic variants in VPS13A, typically presenting with hyperkinetic movement disorders, while neuromuscular signs are often mild. The aim of the project was to investigate the frequency and severity of neuromuscular impairment in VPS13A disease ...

Pre-clinical evaluation of an adult extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal system for pediatric application [PDF]
, 2014 Adult extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) systems and pediatric ECMO share the common objectives of having a low blood flow rate and low priming volume while safely maintaining sufficient respiratory support.
