Testing of novel spectral device sensor in swine model of airway obstruction
Physiological Reports, 2019 Loss of a patent airway is a significant cause of prehospital death. Endotracheal intubation is the gold standard of care but has a high rate of failure and complications, making development of new devices vital. We previously showed that tracheal tissue

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.We systematically reviewed conversion therapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and propose a response‐based treatment strategy for cT4b and M1 disease. For cT4b, we emphasize definitive chemoradiotherapy with timed re‐evaluation and selective salvage or chemoselection to surgery; for M1, conversion is reserved for limited‐burden responders with ...

Clinical Significance of Bronchodilator Responsiveness Evaluated by Forced Vital Capacity in COPD: SPIROMICS Cohort Analysis. [PDF]
, 2019 ObjectiveBronchodilator responsiveness (BDR) is prevalent in COPD, but its clinical implications remain unclear. We explored the significance of BDR, defined by post-bronchodilator change in FEV1 (BDRFEV1) as a measure reflecting the change in flow and ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This work presents a deep learning model to autonomously recognize and classify the secretion retention into three levels for patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation, achieving 89.08% accuracy. This model can be implemented to ventilators by edge computing, whose feasibility is approved.

Impending Complete Airway Obstruction from a Reinforced Orotracheal Tube: a Case Report
Acta Medica Iranica, 2015 Reinforced tubes are commonly used to minimize the opportunity of upper airway obstruction in patients at risk. There are a few reports of the airway obstruction resulted from kinked reinforced tubes. This report describes the obstruction of a reinforced
