Diagnostic value of a new cryoprobe for peripheral pulmonary lesions: a prospective study

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Cryobiopsy is an established technique that yields larger and higher-quality samples than does a forceps biopsy. However, it remains underutilised in the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs), mainly because of difficulties in ...

Laryngeal Cryotherapy for Neurogenic Cough: Safety, Feasibility, and Prospective Outcomes

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A prospective clinical trial investigated the safety and clinical outcomes of office‐based selective laryngeal cryotherapy for patients with refractory chronic cough. Patient were followed for 6 months posttreatment and had durable improvement in cough severity index and urge‐to‐cough scores and no serious long term adverse effects.

Gamma Irradiation‐Based Free Radical Grafting of N‐Hydroxyethyl Acrylamide onto Poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate]

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates successful gamma‐radiation‐induced grafting of N‐hydroxyethyl acrylamide onto poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate], producing substantial changes in material properties. Grafting generated a biphasic, less crystalline structure with enhanced thermal stability, elongation (65%), toughness (378% increase), and exceptional water uptake (610 ...

Evaluating the efficacy of obturator cryoneurolysis for hip adductor spasticity: An observational, prospective study

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hip adductor spasticity is a common affliction among patients with disorders of the central nervous system. Cryoneurolysis is a novel intervention for spasticity involving the application of extreme cold to a nerve. This induces axonal breakdown, relieving spasticity.

Chemical diversity and phylogenetic insights into Hawaiian ʻākia (Wikstroemia) species used in traditional fishing practices

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional fishing with plant‐based piscicides is a global practice in decline, facing increasing restrictions. We investigated the chemical diversity of endemic Wikstroemia species historically used to stun or poison fish in Hawaiʻi. Using 1‐H‐NMR, principal component analysis, targeted HPLC, and target‐capture sequencing, we characterized compounds ...

Safety and Efficacy of Direct Cryobiopsy Specimen Retrieval Through the 3.0‐mm Working Channel of a Therapeutic Bronchoscope Using a 1.1‐mm Cryoprobe: A Multicentre Prospective Observational Study

Respirology, EarlyView.
Safety and efficacy of direct 1.1‐mm cryobiopsy specimen retrieval through a 3.0‐mm therapeutic bronchoscope channel were evaluated. The technique achieved 87.5% overall diagnostic yield, produced specimens three times larger than forceps biopsy, and caused Grade 3 bleeding in only 2.1%.
