Macintosh laryngoscope vs. Pentax-AWS video laryngoscope: comparison of efficacy and cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation in major burn patients [PDF]
BackgroundPatients with major burns accompanied with airway edema need more attention for airway management. Although the Pentax-AWS has an advantage in managing endotracheal intubation more easily, its usefulness cannot be assured if it does not ...

Domain Adaptive Sim-to-Real Segmentation of Oropharyngeal Organs Towards Robot-assisted Intubation [PDF]
Robotic-assisted tracheal intubation requires the robot to distinguish anatomical features like an experienced physician using deep-learning techniques. However, real datasets of oropharyngeal organs are limited due to patient privacy issues, making it challenging to train deep-learning models for accurate image segmentation.

Residual tumor cells that drive disease relapse after chemotherapy do not have enhanced tumor initiating capacity. [PDF]
Although chemotherapy is used to treat most advanced solid tumors, recurrent disease is still the major cause of cancer-related mortality. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been the focus of intense research in recent years because they provide a possible ...

Abstract The incidence of juvenile‐onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) varies worldwide, and the lack of well‐adopted guidelines for use in China suggests that patients with JORRP do not receive optimal care. In America, where data are available, pediatric patients undergo an average of 4 surgeries annually and a total of >40 surgeries ...
