Diaphragm thickening in cardiac surgery: a perioperative prospective ultrasound study

Annals of Intensive Care, 2019
Background Diaphragm paresis is common after cardiac surgery and may delay the weaning from the ventilator. Our objective was to evaluate diaphragm thickening during weaning and secondly the muscle thickness as a marker of myotrauma.

Application of bedside ultrasound in predicting the outcome of weaning from mechanical ventilation in elderly patients

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background With the increased ageing of society, more and more elderly people are admitted to the intensive care unit, How to accurately predict whether elderly patients can successfully wean from the ventilator is more complicated.

In Vivo Quantitative Assessment of Myocardial Structure, Function, Perfusion and Viability Using Cardiac Micro-computed Tomography [PDF]

, 2016
The use of Micro-Computed Tomography (MicroCT) for in vivo studies of small animals as models of human disease has risen tremendously due to the fact that MicroCT provides quantitative high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) anatomical data non ...

Early rehabilitation relieves diaphragm dysfunction induced by prolonged mechanical ventilation: a randomised control study

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background Prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV) induces diaphragm dysfunction in patients in the intensive care units (ICUs). Our study aimed to explore the therapeutic efficacy of early rehabilitation therapy in patients with prolonged MV in the ICU ...

Transcutaneous electrical diaphragmatic stimulation in mechanically ventilated patients: a randomised study

Critical Care, 2023
Background Few specific methods are available to reduce the risk of diaphragmatic dysfunction for patients under mechanical ventilation. The number of studies involving transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the diaphragm (TEDS) is increasing but none ...

Diaphragmatic thickening fraction as a predictor for intubation in patients with COVID-19

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2022
The diaphragm is the primary respiratory muscle, and its dysfunction predisposes patients to respiratory failure. Diaphragm function can be assessed by ultrasound measurement - Diaphragmatic Thickening Fraction (DTF).

Mettl3‐Mediated m6A Modification Represents a Novel Therapeutic Target for FSGS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the roles of Mettl3‐induced N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modifications in Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The findings reveal that inhibition of Mettl3 results in podocyte injury by modulating the TJP1CDC42 pathway. Moreover, Administration of N6‐methyladenosine attenuates the FSGS phenotype in WT mice induced by Adriamycin ...
