Effects of a stepwise alveolar recruitment maneuver on lung volume distribution in dogs assessed by computed tomography

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
BackgroundPulmonary atelectasis is a commonly occurs during anesthesia. In these cases, mechanical ventilation (MV) associated with alveolar recruitment maneuvers (ARMs) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is indicated to reverse the condition ...

Relationship Between Hospital Volume and Outcomes of Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer: Analysis of the National Clinical Database in Japan

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 10, Issue 5, Page 1518-1526, September 2026.
According to multivariable analysis conducted using a hierarchical logistic regression model, using VHH as the reference group, the odds ratios for mortality by hospital volume category were as follows: VLH, 2.70 (p < 0.0001); LH, 1.72 (p = 0.052); MH, 1.70 (p = 0.034); and HH, 1.43 (p = 0.173).

Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis on the Efficacy and Safety of Salvage Esophagectomy for T4 Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 10, Issue 5, Page 1441-1449, September 2026.
This meta‐analysis of 208 cases shows that salvage esophagectomy for cT4 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma achieves a 72% R0 resection rate, offering a curative pathway for selected patients. However, it remains a high‐risk procedure with an 18% anastomotic leak rate and 30% major complications (Clavien–Dindo ≥ III).

Vasopressor‐Associated Limb Ischemia Resulting in Quadruple Amputation in Suspected Septic Shock

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Vasopressor‐associated limb ischemia (VALI) is a rare but devastating complication of vasopressor therapy in septic shock. This case shows catastrophic four‐limb amputation in a 26‐year‐old obese male with suspected septic shock. This case illustrates the complex interplay between prolonged high‐dose vasopressor therapy, morbid obesity, and ...

Possible Paraneoplastic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Presenting as Respiratory Failure in a Breast Cancer Patient: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
In a breast cancer patient with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure, paraneoplastic ALS was diagnosed despite negative onconeural antibodies. Red flags included diaphragmatic paralysis, ESR of 120 mm/h, and CSF protein of 246 mg/dL. Clinicians should consider this diagnosis even when antibody panels are negative.
