Volumetric thermometry in moving tissues using stack‐of‐radial MRI and an image‐navigated multi‐baseline proton resonance frequency shift method

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To develop and evaluate a volumetric proton resonance frequency shift (PRF)–based thermometry method for monitoring thermal ablation in moving tissues. Methods A golden‐angle‐ordered 3D stack‐of‐radial MRI sequence was combined with an image‐navigated multi‐baseline (iNAV‐MB) PRF method to reconstruct motion‐compensated 3D temperature ...

Optimization of pseudo‐continuous arterial spin labeling for brain perfusion imaging in the intraoperative setting

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Pseudo‐continuous arterial spin labeling (PCASL) efficiency during intraoperative MRI is degraded due to large field inhomogeneities observed in some patients and lower arterial blood velocities induced by anesthesia. The purpose of this work was to maximize labeling efficiency during intraoperative MRI by optimizing PCASL parameters ...

Nutrition assessment of hospitalized very preterm infants: Best practices for accurate anthropometry in neonatal intensive care unit settings

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Hospitalized very preterm infants, those born at <32 weeks of gestation, represent a nutritionally vulnerable population. Anthropometry is used widely in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) clinical and research settings to facilitate nutrition assessment. This approach involves measuring an infant's body weight, length, and head circumference

Effect of external PEEP in patients under controlled mechanical ventilation with an auto-PEEP of 5 cmH2O or higher. [PDF]

, 2016
In some patients with auto-positive end-expiratory pressure (auto-PEEP), application of PEEP lower than auto-PEEP maintains a constant total PEEP, therefore reducing the inspiratory threshold load without detrimental cardiovascular or respiratory effects.

Age‐Dependent Correlation of Pulmonary Function Impairment and Aortic Arch Stiffness in Mice

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
This study examined the relationship between aortic arch stiffness and lung function in aging mice. Multiple linear regression modeling showed moderate to strong correlations between the rise in aortic arch stiffness and changes in lung function as the mice progressively aged.

Nephrocast‐V: A Deep Learning Model for the Prediction of Vancomycin Trough Concentration Using Electronic Health Record Data

Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Vancomycin is a critical antibiotic for treating methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus and other gram‐positive bacterial infections, but achieving and maintaining therapeutic trough concentrations is challenging. Objectives We hypothesized that a deep learning model could accurately predict vancomycin trough concentrations 2

Performance of Large Spacer Versus Nebulizer T-Piece in Single-Limb Noninvasive Ventilation

Respiratory care, 2018
BACKGROUND: Predosing patients with COPD with salbutamol by using a pressurized metered-dose-inhaler (pMDI) as a bronchodilator was hypothesized to improve the distribution of the subsequent nebulized dose.
