Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2018 Importance The optimal approach to airway management during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is unknown. Objective To determine whether a supraglottic airway device (SGA) is superior to tracheal intubation (TI) as the initial advanced airway management ...

Assessment of the Clinical Diagnosis of Onychomycosis by Dermoscopy
Frontiers in Surgery, 2022 BackgroundAs a common clinical superficial fungal infection, the diagnosis of onychomycosis relies on clinical features, traditional KOH direct microscopy and fungal culture. In recent years, dermoscopy has been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment

Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2011 Currently, the role of ultrasound (US) in anaesthesia-related airway assessment and procedural interventions is encouraging, though it is still ill defined. US can visualise anatomical structures in the supraglottic, glottic and subglottic regions. The floor of the mouth can be visualised by both transcutaneous view of the neck and also by transoral or

Crowdsourcing Airway Annotations in Chest Computed Tomography Images [PDF]
, 2020 Measuring airways in chest computed tomography (CT) scans is important for characterizing diseases such as cystic fibrosis, yet very time-consuming to perform manually. Machine learning algorithms offer an alternative, but need large sets of annotated scans for good performance.

Transmission factors and exposure to infections at work and invasive pneumococcal disease
American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 65-74, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Working in close contacts with coworkers or the general public may be associated with transmission of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). We investigated whether crowded workplaces, sharing surfaces, and exposure to infections were factors associated with IPD.

A CT-Based Airway Segmentation Using U$^2$-net Trained by the Dice Loss Function [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Airway segmentation from chest computed tomography scans has played an essential role in the pulmonary disease diagnosis. The computer-assisted airway segmentation based on the U-net architecture is more efficient and accurate compared to the manual segmentation.

Airway Microbiota Is Associated with Upregulation of the PI3K Pathway in Lung Cancer
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2018 Rationale: In lung cancer, upregulation of the PI3K (phosphoinositide 3‐kinase) pathway is an early event that contributes to cell proliferation, survival, and tissue invasion.
