Endobronchial tuberculosis complicating to left main bronchus cutoff with complete lung collapse: A preventable tuberculosis sequel in current times!

Muller Journal of Medical Sciences and Research
Endobronchial tuberculosis (EBTB) is a form of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) where Mycobacterium tuberculosis infects the tracheobronchial tree, leading to inflammation, ulceration, and fibrosis.

A General High‐Throughput Mucus Microrheology Platform for Quantitative and Scalable Mucus Phenotyping

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput Differential Dynamic Microscopy measures frequency‐resolved mechanical fingerprints from 3 to 10 μL$\umu{\rm L}$ mucus samples using only a few minutes of operator attention per sample. This automated analysis enables scalable mucus phenotyping for translational research by distinguishing mechanical heterogeneity among donors, disease ...

Robotic-Assisted Bronchoscopy: A Comprehensive Review of System Functions and Analysis of Outcome Data

Diagnostics
The past two decades have witnessed a revolutionary era for peripheral bronchoscopy. Though the initial description of radial endobronchial ultrasound can be traced back to 1992, it was not until the mid-2000s that its utilization became commonplace ...

A Tumor‐Boundary Niche Enriched for PD‐1+CD8+T Cells and BTLA+B Cells Drives Resistance to Immunotherapy in NSCLC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A spatial niche composed of BTLA+B cells and CD8+T cells is enriched at the tumor boundary in non‐small cell lung cancer. Within this specialized niche, BTLA+B cells act as a dominant source of IL‐6, upregulating PD‐1 on CD8+T cells via STAT3 signaling.

Bronchoscope Tip Localization With Learned Airway Constraints and an Open Source Simulator

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
BronchoLoc addresses feature‐poor bronchoscopic imaging by combining monocular video with a preoperative CT graph to estimate 3D camera location. A local tracker identifies candidate branches, while a sequence‐aware global module refines the trajectory. Demonstrating sub‐centimeter accuracy across synthetic and phantom datasets, this framework advances

Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Real‐World Experience With Multimodal Treatment of Resectable Stage II–III Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Single Institutional Analysis

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neoadjuvant therapy has recently become an integral component of multimodal treatment for resectable lung cancer. However, real‐world data on perioperative morbidity and treatment adherence remain limited. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and safety of different neoadjuvant treatment approaches applied within daily clinical routine ...

Comparison between lignocaine nebulization and airway nerve block for awake fiberoptic bronchoscopy-guided nasotracheal intubation: a single-blind randomized prospective study [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2018
Background The preferred management strategy for difficult airways is awake fiberoptic bronchoscopy-guided intubation, which requires effective airway anesthesia to ensure patient comfort and acceptance. This randomized single-blind prospective study was
