Treatment of Tracheal Stenosis Following Intratracheal Intubation or Tracheostomy
There are three types of tracheal stenosis following intratracheal intubation and tracheostomy. They are; stomal stenosis which occurs at the site of tracheostomy, cuff level stenosis which occurs at the site of an inflated cuff of an intratracheal tube and tip stenosis at the site of a canula tip by irritation of a tracheal tube.Up to date we have ...

ABSTRACT Self‐expandable metallic and plastic stents have been used for biliary tract injuries, but they are not entirely adequate as treatments. This study investigated the potential of our novel self‐expandable bioabsorbable covered stent (SEBCS) to treat bile duct injuries. We developed a novel SEBCS by covering a self‐expandable bioabsorbable stent

Mucosal injury following short term tracheal intubation: a novel animal model and composite injury score [PDF]
Objectives: Postintubation laryngotracheal injury is common. Assessment of histopathological changes currently requires animal models. We set about developing a viable, resource effective animal model to study these effects and to develop a detailed ...

Inhalable Hsa‐miR‐30a‐3p Liposomes Attenuate Pulmonary Fibrosis
The study explores inhalable hsa‐miR‐30a‐3p‐loaded liposomes as a treatment for bleomycin‐induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. Hsa‐miR‐30a‐3p is electroporated into liposomes and formulated into a dry powder for inhalation. Delivered via dry powder inhalation, it improves pulmonary function, promotes myofibroblast de‐differentiation by targeting CNPY2 ...

Relationship of arterial and exhaled CO2 during elevated artificial pneumoperitoneum pressure for introduction of the first trocar. [PDF]
The present study evaluated the correlation between arterial CO2 and exhaled CO2 during brief high-pressure pneumoperitoneum. Patients were randomly distributed into two groups: P12 group (n=30) received a maximum intraperitoneal pressure of 12mmHg ...

PvdQ Quorum Quenching Acylase Attenuates Pseudomonas aeruginosa Virulence in a Mouse Model of Pulmonary Infection [PDF]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the predominant pathogen in pulmonary infections associated with cystic fibrosis. Quorum sensing (QS) systems regulate the production of virulence factors and play an important role in the establishment of successful P ...

Flexible Bronchoscopy in Neonates With Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia
ABSTRACT Background Flexible bronchoscopy (FB) may facilitate ECMO and ventilator weaning through diagnosing airway anomalies and removal of mucous plugs in the critically‐ill pediatric population. Only few studies on FB in critically‐ill neonates exist, and even fewer focus on neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) requiring extracorporal
