Active interfacial dynamic transport of fluid in fibrous connective tissues and a hypothesis of interstitial fluid circulatory system [PDF]

open access: yesCell Proliferation. 2020;00:e12760, 2019
Fluid in interstitial spaces accounts for ~20% of an adult body weight. Does it circulate around the body like vascular circulations besides a diffusive and short-ranged transport? This bold conjecture has been debated for decades. As a conventional physiological concept, interstitial space was the space between cells and a micron-sized space. Fluid in

Optic nerve ultrasound for fluid status assessment in patients with severe preeclampsia

open access: yesRadiology and Oncology, 2018
There are no data on usefulness of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) as a marker of patient’s fluid status in preeclampsia. The objective was to examine potential correlation between ONSD and lung ultrasound estimates of extravascular lung water in ...

Surface tension effects on flow dynamics and alveolar mechanics in the acinar region of human lung [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, in-vitro setups, and experimental ex-vivo approaches have been applied to numerous alveolar geometries over the past years. They aimed to study and examine airflow patterns, particle transport, and particle-alveolar wall deposition fractions.

Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction Is Not Associated With Pulmonary Edema in Septic Patients. A Prospective Observational Cohort Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
PurposeWe aimed to investigate whether left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is associated with pulmonary edema in septic patients.MethodsWe conducted a prospective cohort study in adult septic patients between October 2018 and May 2019.

Automated CT Lung Cancer Screening Workflow using 3D Camera [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Despite recent developments in CT planning that enabled automation in patient positioning, time-consuming scout scans are still needed to compute dose profile and ensure the patient is properly positioned. In this paper, we present a novel method which eliminates the need for scout scans in CT lung cancer screening by estimating patient scan range ...

A Pilot Study of Wet Lung Using Lung Ultrasound Surface Wave Elastography in an Ex Vivo Swine Lung Model

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Extravascular lung water (EVLW) is a basic symptom of congestive heart failure and other conditions. Computed tomography (CT) is standard method used to assess EVLW, but it requires ionizing radiation and radiology facilities.

Remodelling of Membrane Rafts Expression in Lung Cells as an Early Sign of Mechanotransduction-Signalling in Pulmonary Edema [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Membrane rafts (MRs) are clusters of lipids, organized in a “quasicrystalline” liquid-order phase, organized on the cell surface and whose pattern of molecules and physicochemical properties are distinct from those of the surrounding plasma membrane ...

Classification of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

open access: yesОбщая реаниматология, 2007
The editorial proposes a new classification of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Acute lung injury (ALI) is regarded as the first stage of ARDS.

The potential of the ultrasound method in diagnosing pulmonary edema in critically ill patients with liver failure

open access: yesТрансплантология (Москва)
Background. Pulmonary edema is a common complication in critically ill patients. The liberal tactics of fluid therapy and pathological accumulation of extravascular lung water increase the risks of mortality in Intensive Care Unit patients.
