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 ...

Role of non invasive ventilation in limiting re-intubation after planned extubation

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2013
Introduction: In critically ill adult patients, particularly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), early use of non invasive ventilation (NIV) after weaning may be associated with the decrease of mortality.

Emergent non-invasive ventilation monitoring: Tidal expiratory flow limitation monitoring by the forced oscillation technique and its role in closed-loop ventilation

open access: yes, 2021
Many chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients present tidal expiratory flow limitation (EFLT), which is associated with the development of an intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and dyspnea.

Impact of High-Intensity-NIV on the heart in stable COPD: a randomised cross-over pilot study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2017
Background Although high-intensity non-invasive ventilation has been shown to improve outcomes in stable COPD, it may adversely affect cardiac performance.

Genome‐wide network analysis identifies the lncRNA‐92467/miR‐205‐5p/PTPRM/CAMs axis in a rat model of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The pathogenesis of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) remains unclear. In this study, we explored its key regulatory mechanisms using animal models, RNA sequencing, and cellular assays. We found that lncRNA‐92467 functions as a ceRNA, binding miR‐205‐5p, and thereby upregulating PTPRM, inhibiting abnormal proliferation and migration of endothelial ...

Refining OVCAR‐3 xenograft models of peritoneal carcinomatosis in nu/nu mice: Comparative intraperitoneal implantation strategies and the role of basement membrane matrix

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A refined murine model of advanced ovarian cancer was established by comparing localized preperitoneal implantation and intraperitoneal injection of OVCAR‐3Luc cells. While localized implantation showed limited tumor persistence, intraperitoneal delivery with BME produced sustained diffuse dissemination confirmed by BLI and histology, providing a ...

Developing a strain‐dependent susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma in a murine model based on histopathological evidence and genetic context

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using F1 (C57BL/6J/Smad4+/− X CC) mice, we found that partial loss of Smad4 promotes liver carcinogenesis in a strain‐dependent manner, highlighting the importance of genetic modifiers in tumor susceptibility. The use of Collaborative Cross mice provides a valuable platform for uncovering genotype‐specific cancer susceptibilities in preclinical ...

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Indications for Invasive Conventional Mechanical Ventilation

open access: yes, 2014
The spectrum and severity of respiratory illness in the newly born has been changing over the past three decades with the introduction of antenatal steroids, improved management of the fetus during preterm labor and birth, and postnatal exogenous ...
