HPV6‐Induced Gene Expression Signature in Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis
Using the conditional reprogramming method, we established a cell culture model of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis and analyzed gene expression. Genes related to human papillomavirus 6 expression were identified, including inflammatory genes (e.g., CTSS, CFB), oncogenic genes (e.g., CEACAM5, CEACAM6), and glycosylation‐associated genes (e.g ...

Which Criterion Is Appropriate for Laryngeal Mask Airway Size in Women: Weight or Height?
Background: In this study, we try to determine which of this two criteria (height or weight) is a better for determining the appropriate size of the laryngeal mask airway for Iranian women.

Nanoplastic hydrophobicity drives adverse effects in the lung. Single intratracheal administration of poly(vinyl acetate‐co‐alcohol) nanoplastics with varying surface hydrophobicity shows that the more hydrophobic nanoplastics increase prevalence of coarsely vacuolated alveolar macrophages, induce transient respiratory inflammation and mild collagen ...

Updates in neonatal resuscitation: routine use of laryngeal masks as an alternative to face masks [PDF]
Although positive-pressure ventilation (PPV) has traditionally been performed using a face mask in neonatal resuscitation, face mask ventilation for delivering PPV has a high failure rate due to mask leaks, airway obstruction, or gastric inflation ...

Laryngeal mass induced severe ventilatory impairment during induction of anesthesia
A 77-year-old man with laryngeal cancer was scheduled for total laryngectomy and lymph node dissection surgery under general anesthesia. The patient did not present with airway obstruction signs, including dyspnea or wheezing sounds during spontaneous ...

Evaluation of automated airway morphological quantification for assessing fibrosing lung disease [PDF]
Abnormal airway dilatation, termed traction bronchiectasis, is a typical feature of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Volumetric computed tomography (CT) imaging captures the loss of normal airway tapering in IPF. We postulated that automated quantification of airway abnormalities could provide estimates of IPF disease extent and severity.

Attention‐Guided Food Bolus Segmentation in Ultrasound Imaging for Dysphagia Rehabilitation
Abstract Dysphagia impairs the ability to eat and increases the risk of aspiration pneumonia and choking. Dysphagia rehabilitation often requires strengthening the muscles that transport residual food boluses from the pharynx to the stomach. Detecting food boluses in the pharynx is a crucial early indicator of aspiration risk during rehabilitation and ...

Semi-Automated Nasal PAP Mask Sizing using Facial Photographs [PDF]
We present a semi-automated system for sizing nasal Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) masks based upon a neural network model that was trained with facial photographs of both PAP mask users and non-users. It demonstrated an accuracy of 72% in correctly sizing a mask and 96% accuracy sizing to within 1 mask size group.
