Severe maternal and neonatal morbidity or mortality in forceps versus cesarean birth in the second stage of labor: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Approximately one in four first‐time mothers reach the second stage of labor but cannot have a spontaneous vaginal birth, necessitating an intervention such as forceps to facilitate birth. Objective This study synthesizes evidence comparing severe maternal morbidity (SMM) and neonatal morbidity or mortality (SNMM) following forceps ...

Balloon dilatation for treatment of obstructive cardiovascular lesions in children [PDF]

, 1992
The use of balloon-tipped catheters for the treatment of cardiac malformations was initiated by Rashkind and Miller, with the introduction of the atrial septostomy catheter in 1966 (1 ). This was an important historical milestone because it was the first

Sel1l preserves condylar cartilage matrix homeostasis by regulating PERK signaling

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Our study revealed that the expression of Sel1l was downregulated in OA cartilage and that Sel1l deficiency induced cartilage catabolism. Mechanistically, Sel1l depletion aberrantly activated PERK signaling and resulted in ER stress. PERK inhibition rescued the phenotype of Sel1l‐deficient chondrocytes and alleviated TMJOA pathogenesis.

Simulations and experiments of the balloon dilatation of airway stenoses: Simulationen und Experimente zur Ballondilatation von Atemwegstenosen [PDF]

, 2009
This article investigates the mechanics of balloon dilatation in the treatment of bronchotracheal stenosis. The ‘‘scar stricture’’-type stenosis examined in this paper is typically dilated manually, using a dilatation balloon.

From Negative Duplex to Phlegmasia in Minutes: Bedside POCUS Identifies Rapid Thrombosis Unmasking Underlying May–Thurner Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Point‐of‐care‐ultrasound revealed an evolving acute noncompressible deep vein thrombosis (asterisks) in the left lower extremity veins (right panel) that was not evident on duplex ultrasound 14 min prior (left panel; asterisks demonstrate compressed veins). The patient was treated emergently and found to have May–Thurner syndrome.

Feasibility of Comprehensive Genomic Profiling for Biliary Tract Cancer Using Transpapillary Biopsy Samples: A Prospective Study

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
Graphical summary of the study design, intervention, and outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Patients with biliary tract cancer (BTC) often have actionable mutations, and comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) plays an important role. However, the feasibility of CGP using transpapillary biopsy (TPB) samples remains unclear.

Clinical Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Digital Peroral Cholangioscopy‐Guided Lithotripsy for Difficult Bile Duct Stones

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Peroral cholangioscopy‐guided lithotripsy (POCS‐L) has emerged as a treatment option for difficult bile duct stones (DBDSs), but detailed evidence remains limited. This study evaluated its effectiveness, safety, and risk factors for adverse events (AEs).
