The Effectiveness of Anti‐Adhesion Barriers on Prevention of Postoperative Adhesive Bowel Obstruction: Disease‐Free Survival Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We performed a survival analysis of abdominal gastroenterological cancer surgery cases with and without anti‐adhesive barriers, with the development of adhesive bowel obstruction as the outcome. The incidence of adhesive bowel obstruction was significantly lower in patients undergoing open or laparoscopic colorectal surgery in the anti‐adhesive ...

Autonomous Recognition of Retained Secretions in Central‐Airway Based on Deep Learning for Adult Patients Receiving Invasive Mechanical Ventilation

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.

Acute Exercise Challenge and Airway Dynamics in Youth With Sickle Cell Anemia: A Multicenter Study

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
Changes in airway dynamics in children with sickle cell anemia after maximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing and a controlled intensity interval excercise challenge. ABSTRACT Sickle cell anemia (SCA) leads to reduced physical functioning and cardiopulmonary fitness. Prior studies suggest that airway hyperresponsiveness to bronchoprovocation testing is

Twenty‐Year Longitudinal Cohort Study of Cancer Incidence and Mortality Among Workers in Two Primary Aluminum Prebake Smelters

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Classified as carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, aluminum production has been transitioning towards lower polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon‐emitting prebake smelters. This study explored the risk of cancer and mortality over 20 years follow‐up among a cohort of aluminum prebake smelter workers ...
