Deficiency of Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Enzyme, CPT1A, Underlies Airway Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction in Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial fatty acid enzyme, CPT1A, is deficient in the airway epithelium of severe asthma patients. Restoration of CPT1A expression improved epithelial barrier integrity via increasing mitochondrial respiration and ATP production in airway epithelial cells. Restoration of deficient epithelial CPT1A may represent a new treatment approach for severe

Peri‐operative glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist use and outcomes: a national prospective multicentre cohort study

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Peri‐operative glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1 RA) use is associated with delayed gastric emptying. It is unclear what proportion of patients having anaesthetic care are receiving GLP‐1 RAs; what strategies are used in their peri‐operative management; and whether the incidence of pulmonary aspiration and/or ...

Bronchoscopy by the anaesthetist [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1957
Bronchoscopy is a technique easily mastered by the anaesthetist. It can at times be life-saving and at other times reduce postoperative morbidity. The necessary apparatus is simple and can be part of the equipment of any anaesthetic department Diagnostic bronchoscopy belongs to the field of the thoracic surgeon and the otolaryngologist, but by ...

Simulation‐Based Education for Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery Emergency Procedures in the South Pacific: A Pilot Study

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
A one‐day regional simulation course significantly improved confidence in five emergency OHNS procedures among South Pacific surgeons and trainees, with improvements sustained at 6 months. Two‐thirds reported applying course skills clinically, supporting simulation‐based education as a feasible approach to regional surgical capacity building.

Computational Fluid Dynamics as an Adjunctive Functional Assessment of Airway Narrowing After Pulmonary Artery Banding: A Case Report. [PDF]

open access: yesRespirol Case Rep
An infant developed respiratory instability after pulmonary artery banding despite only mild‐to‐moderate tracheobronchial narrowing on computed tomography and bronchoscopy. Patient‐specific computational fluid dynamics revealed markedly elevated airway resistance (15 Pa/mL/s) and severe airflow asymmetry, with only 0.04% of the simulated inspiratory ...
