Age‐related population level decoupling of obstructive sleep apnea severity from body mass index: Insights from over 40,000 patients across the adult lifespan

open access: yesSleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Study Objectives Obesity is a major determinant of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity, but its influence may vary across adulthood. We examined age‐related patterns of body mass index (BMI), apnea–hypopnea index (AHI), and hypoxemic burden, and assessed whether the association between BMI and OSA severity attenuates with age.

Home treatment of infection-related acute respiratory failure in kyphoscoliotic patients on long-term mechanical ventilation

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: In patients with kyphoscoliosis, long-term mechanical ventilation improves chronic alveolar hypoventilation during spontaneous breathing, improves quality of life, decreases the need for hospitalization, and improves survival.

Penile intracavernosal injection of succinylcholine for laryngospasm management during hypospadias repair

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Laryngospasm is a serious anesthetic complication that can lead to acute airway obstruction and hypoxemia. Standard management involves deepening anesthesia and administering succinylcholine intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM). However, if IV access is lost or IM drug delivery is too slow, alternative routes are required.

Intravenous paracetamol does not have significant opioid‐sparing effects when used as part of a multimodal analgesic protocol in dogs undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Data evaluating paracetamol combined with NSAIDs in dogs are scarce. Results of clinical studies in dogs investigating intravenous paracetamol vary. Methods Dogs were randomised to either receive 10 mg/kg paracetamol intravenously after induction of anaesthesia and every 8 hours during hospitalisation (test) or not (control).

The Gender of Fossil Fuels: Oil and Domestic Perils in Mandate Palestine

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the gender dynamics behind the rise of kerosene – an oil derivative – as the main domestic fuel in Mandate Palestine. It argues that these dynamics were constitutive in determining who began to use oil, where and for what purposes, in turn demonstrating that women in Palestine were the promoters and targets of a campaign ...
