High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy in infants and children versus other non-invasive ventilation: a review of current knowledge [PDF]

open access: yes
Respiratory distress is the leading cause of hospitalisation in paediatric intensive care units. Non-invasive ventilation can be delivered via continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) or high-flow nasal cannula

Twenty-Four Hour Noninvasive Ventilation in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: A Safe Alternative to Tracheostomy

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2013
BACKGROUND: Almost all patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) eventually develop respiratory failure. Once 24 h ventilation is required, either due to incomplete effectiveness of nocturnal noninvasive ventilation (NIV) or bulbar weakness, it is ...

Aged ZnO Nanoparticles Promote Breast Cancer Lung Metastasis by Remodeling the Pulmonary Microenvironment Through the CXCL10/Wnt/β‐Catenin Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In summary, pulmonary exposure to ZnO NPs, particularly aged NPs, promotes breast cancer metastasis by remodelling the lung tumour microenvironment. Aged ZnO NPs enrich M2‐macrophages, MDSCs and activated CAFs to form an immunosuppressive metastatic niche. CXCL10 from these cells drives metastasis via Wnt/β‐catenin activation.

Acute kidney injury in immunocompromised patients with acute respiratory failure: insights from the HIGH clinical trial and relation with mechanical ventilation

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care
Background: Critically ill immunocompromised patients are particularly susceptible to acute kidney injury (AKI) due to various underlying mechanisms. Although invasive mechanical ventilation has been associated with an increased risk of AKI, its specific

Book review: non-Invasive ventilation made simple [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is well established and increasingly used in routine clinical practice, either in the management of acute respiratory failure, where it has resulted in improved survival and reduced number of complications or in weaning ...

Stroke‐Heart Syndrome: Mechanisms, Temporal Phenotypes, and Diagnostic Reasoning

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Stroke‐heart syndrome describes new or worsened cardiac abnormalities after acute stroke. This Review defines its clinical boundaries, traces autonomic, inflammatory, endothelial, and supply‐demand mechanisms across time, and proposes provisional phenotypes that integrate lesion location, premorbid cardiac substrate, serial biomarkers ...

Prediction of Long‐Term Prognosis in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using the National Clinical Database Risk Calculator

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine the value of the National Clinical Database (NCD) risk calculator in predicting surgical outcomes and long‐term prognosis in patients undergoing resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We retrospectively analyzed data from 210 patients with HCC who underwent initial hepatic resection, assessing the relationship ...

Non-invasive ventilation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

open access: yes, 2019
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has become an important cornerstone of symptomatic treatment in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), improving survival and quality of life. In this review, we summarize the most important recent developments and insights,

Preoperative FIB‐4 Index as a Potential Factor Associated With Severe Postoperative Complications and Endogenous Organ Failure After Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that a preoperative FIB‐4 index ≥ 5.0 independently predicts severe complications and endogenous organ failure (EOF) following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. By capturing structural liver fragility and systemic vulnerability, the FIB‐4 index enhances surgical risk stratification beyond traditional functional markers ...
