Dose–response relationship and predictive value of soluble B7‐DC in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and risk of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in children

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 41, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract This study was to investigate the clinical significance of soluble B7‐dendritic cell (sB7‐DC) concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of children with Refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP). A total of 298 patients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) were enrolled. Patients were divided into general MPP (GMPP) (n

Training and assessment of skills in flexible optical intubation — Protocol of a scoping review

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 69, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Background Flexible optical intubation (FOI) is the preferred technique for managing anticipated difficult airways, particularly in awake patients when anatomical factors complicate conventional laryngoscopy. Mastering the procedure requires skills, but a comprehensive overview of the evidence on training and assessment of FOI skills is ...

LTSP: Long-Term Slice Propagation for Accurate Airway Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Purpose: Bronchoscopic intervention is a widely-used clinical technique for pulmonary diseases, which requires an accurate and topological complete airway map for its localization and guidance. The airway map could be extracted from chest computed tomography (CT) scans automatically by airway segmentation methods. Due to the complex tree-like structure

Endobronchial Leiomyoma Presenting as Post‐Obstructive Pneumonia

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2025.
Here, we describe a case of endobronchial leiomyoma presenting with post‐obstructive pneumonia in a young female who was successfully treated with rigid bronchoscopy‐guided endobronchial cryo‐resection. ABSTRACT Endobronchial leiomyoma is a rare airway tumour. We report the case of a 30‐year‐old female non‐smoker who presented with persistent fever and
