Three cases of tracheal dilatation following prolonged ventilation through a tracheostomy tube with a conventional cuff are reported. The routine care of tracheostomies in the ITU at Northampton General Hospital is described. Possible causes for the development of dilatation are suggested and the symptoms and signs discussed.

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a clinical diagnosis characterized by left ventricular or biventricular dilation and impaired contraction that is not explained by abnormal loading conditions (for example, hypertension and valvular heart disease) or coronary artery disease.

Importance Case series suggest favorable results of peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for treatment of patients with achalasia. Data comparing POEM with pneumatic dilation, the standard treatment for patients with achalasia, are lacking.

Standard noncommuting and commuting dilations of commuting tuples [PDF]
We introduce a notion called `maximal commuting piece' for tuples of Hilbert space operators. Given a commuting tuple of operators forming a row contraction there are two commonly used dilations in multivariable operator theory.

α-Synuclein Promotes Dilation of the Exocytotic Fusion Pore
The protein α-synuclein has a central role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. Like that of other proteins that accumulate in neurodegenerative disease, however, the function of α-synuclein remains unknown.

New Insights Into Permeation of Large Cations Through ATP-Gated P2X Receptors
The permeability of large cations through the P2X pore has remained arguably the most controversial and complicated topic in P2X-related research, with the emergence of conflicting studies on the existence, mechanism and physiological relevance of a so ...

Interference of Clocks: A Quantum Twin Paradox [PDF]
The phase of matter waves depends on proper time and is therefore susceptible to special-relativistic (kinematic) and gravitational time dilation (redshift).

Dilated Semantic Segmentation for Breast Ultrasonic Lesion Detection Using Parallel Feature Fusion
Breast cancer is becoming more dangerous by the day. The death rate in developing countries is rapidly increasing. As a result, early detection of breast cancer is critical, leading to a lower death rate.

Neuromodulatory Correlates of Pupil Dilation
Pupillometry has long been used as a measure of brain state. Changes in pupil diameter are thought to coincide with the activity of neuromodulators, including noradrenaline and acetylcholine, producing alterations in the brain state and corresponding ...
