Risk of Long‐Term Airway Sequelae and Mortality in Laryngeal Chondrosarcoma

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In low‐ and intermediate‐grade laryngeal chondrosarcomas, nonradical surgery or even debulking is considered justifiable to preserve laryngeal function. However, tumor‐ and treatment‐related factors affecting the need for reoperation and long‐term risk for tracheostomy remain unclear.

Latent Class Analysis of Pediatric Bronchial Foreign Body Complications and Their Associated Factors

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
This study employed latent class analysis (LCA) to identify four potential classes of pediatric bronchial foreign body complications. Significant differences were observed among the characteristics of these classes, which were associated with factors such as a history of foreign body aspiration, use of rigid bronchoscopy, asymmetric breath sounds, C ...

Clinical Outcomes and Acute Exacerbation Incidence in Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema

Respirology, EarlyView.
This multicentre prospective study of 1016 patients demonstrated that CPFE, defined as ≥ 5% emphysema on visual CT assessment, identified a high‐risk phenotype with significantly worse 5‐year survival compared to non‐CPFE IIP patients (51.4% vs. 63.1%) and COPD patients (51.4% vs. 84.0%) and higher acute exacerbation incidence, validating international

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...
