Alveolar Extracellular Vesicles May Protect Some Patients With Chronic Aspiration From Pneumonia

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A subset of patients with chronic aspiration appear to be relatively protected against pneumonias. This prospective observational study examines the alveolar fluid of patients with chronic aspiration with and without pneumonia. We found relatively little difference in classical cytokine levels but a difference in both the level and protein composition ...

Using Interleukin 6 and 8 in Blood and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid to Predict Survival in Hematological Malignancy Patients With Suspected Pulmonary Mold Infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Background: Molds and other pathogens induce elevated levels of several cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8. The objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of IL-6 and IL-8 as well as fungal biomarkers in blood and ...

Inflammatory Markers Stratify Surgical Outcomes in Pediatric Airway Reconstruction

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) predicts surgical success in adult patients undergoing open airway reconstruction for laryngotracheal stenosis, but similar biomarkers in pediatrics remain unidentified. This study identifies predictors of outcomes in pediatric patients undergoing triple endoscopy or surgical airway ...

Immunosuppression and Surgery‐Free Interval in Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis Airway Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Subglottic and tracheal stenosis are severe manifestations of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) that often require both endoscopic intervention and systemic immunosuppression. Rituximab may help stabilize GPA‐related airway disease by prolonging the interval between endoscopic procedures and delaying relapse.

CT‐Based Comparison of Tracheostomy Placement Accuracy: Open Versus Percutaneous Approaches

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study provides the first objective CT‐based comparison of tracheostomy placement accuracy between open surgical and percutaneous techniques in 503 patients. Both methods achieved comparable stoma positioning relative to the cricoid cartilage, while patient factors and surgeon expertise had a greater impact on placement accuracy than the surgical ...

A Novel Method Using Dual‐Energy Computed Tomography for Detecting Amiodarone‐Induced Lung Injury: A Cohort Pilot Study

Respirology, EarlyView.
There is no gold standard for detecting amiodarone‐induced‐lung injury (AILD). Dual‐Energy‐Computed‐Tomography (DECT) depicts iodine deposition in lungs abnormalities and the liver. We found a substantial correlation between the DECT assessment of AILD and comprehensive clinical evaluation of AILD. DECT can assist in the diagnosis of AILD.
