Thoracic Ultrasonography in Calves: A Narrative Review of Techniques and Reporting Practices. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Ultrasonography of the bovine lung is a noninvasive technique allowing recognition of lower respiratory tract lesions and differentiation from disease limited to the upper respiratory tract. Techniques for scanning the thorax have evolved to facilitate examination of cohorts of calves quickly, while maintaining accuracy. Classification systems

Effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors on the pulmonary circulation in lung cancer patients
What's New? Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are effective against various cancers, but as more patients receive these therapies, more immune‐related adverse events (irAEs) emerge. Recent studies have suggested that ICIs are associated with an increase in pulmonary artery diameter and the ratio between pulmonary artery diameter and aortic diameter ...

Abstract Autoimmune encephalitis is a group of disorders characterized by symptoms of dysfunction of the limbic and extra‐limbic systems that occur in association with antibodies against intracellular antigens, synapses, or proteins located on the surface of nerve cells. Anti‐NMDA (N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate) receptor encephalitis was first described in 2007

This case highlights the importance of considering malignancy‐related esophagorespiratory fistulas in patients with presumed aspiration‐related lung abscesses and heavy alcohol use. Abstract A man in his 60s was ultimately diagnosed with a secondary lung abscess caused by an esophagorespiratory fistula.

PNEUMOCOCCUS INFECTION AND LOBAR PNEUMONIA [PDF]
Pneumonia, in many respects, certainly as a cause of death, is the most important infectious disease with which we have to deal. The symptomatic treatment is difficult and of doubtful utility ; there is no well-established form of specific therapy. Nevertheless, up to within a very recent time, the investigation of the real nature of the process has ...

Alveolar Extracellular Vesicles May Protect Some Patients With Chronic Aspiration From Pneumonia
A subset of patients with chronic aspiration appear to be relatively protected against pneumonias. This prospective observational study examines the alveolar fluid of patients with chronic aspiration with and without pneumonia. We found relatively little difference in classical cytokine levels but a difference in both the level and protein composition ...
