Treatment with new organic nitrites in pulmonary hypertension of acute experimental pulmonary embolism

Pharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2019
Acute pulmonary embolism may cause right heart failure due to increased pulmonary vascular resistance and arterial hypoxemia. Effective vasodilator therapy of the pulmonary hypertension is highly needed.

Post‐mortem CT detection of fatal air embolism after aerosolized fibrin glue for bladder bleeding

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Radiation‐induced hemorrhagic cystitis (RHC) is a severe complication of pelvic radiotherapy, often used to treat various pelvic malignancies. Despite multiple therapeutic options, including conservative and invasive interventions, the optimal management remains uncertain. We report the case of a 76‐year‐old male with pulmonary emphysema and a

Mechanisms underlying gas exchange alterations in an experimental model of pulmonary embolism

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2006
The aim of the present study was to determine the ventilation/perfusion ratio that contributes to hypoxemia in pulmonary embolism by analyzing blood gases and volumetric capnography in a model of experimental acute pulmonary embolism.

Hypertonic saline reduces inflammation and enhances the resolution of oleic acid induced acute lung injury [PDF]

, 2008
Background Hypertonic saline (HTS) reduces the severity of lung injury in ischemia-reperfusion, endotoxin-induced and ventilation-induced lung injury. However, the potential for HTS to modulate the resolution of lung injury is not known.

Interventional oncology in children: Where are we now?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Abstract Paediatric Interventional Oncology (IO) lags behind adult IO due to a scarcity of specific outcome data. The suboptimal way to evolve this field is relying heavily on adult experiences. The distinct tumour types prevalent in children, such as extracranial germ cell tumours, sarcomas, and neuroblastoma, differ strongly from those found in ...

Predictors of Brain Infarction in Pediatric Patients During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
In 179 pediatric ECMO patients, brain infarction (BI) occurred in 28% and was linked to markedly higher 30‐day mortality. VA ECMO mode (vs. VV) and higher pre‐ECMO arterial lactate independently predicted BI, supporting standardized neuro‐monitoring and liberal early brain CT, especially for children on VA ECMO.

Understanding the Impact of Synthetic Hematocrit Levels and Biomimetic Channel Widths on Bubble Parameters in Vascular Systems on a Chip

Biomimetics
Gas embolism is a rare but life-threatening process characterized by the presence of gas bubbles in the venous or arterial systems. These bubbles, if sufficiently large or numerous, can block the delivery of oxygen to critical organs, in particular the ...

In Vivo Measurement of Blood Clot Mechanics from Computational Fluid Dynamics based on Intravital Microscopy Images

, 2018
Ischemia leading to heart attacks and strokes is the major cause of deaths in the world. Whether an occlusion occurs or not, depends on the ability of a growing thrombus to resist forces exerted on its structure.
