Acute Effects of Smoking and Vaping on Markers of Vascular Function via Quantitative MRI
ABSTRACT Background E‐cigarettes contribute to endothelial dysfunction, a known cause of systemic atherosclerotic disease that cannot be adequately characterized by a single physiological parameter measured at a single vascular bed. Purpose/Hypothesis Quantify and compare acute effects of smoking or vaping with tobacco cigarettes (t‐cigs), nicotinized ...

Optic Nerve Thickness Assessed by Ocular Ultrasonography in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with various ocular complications, yet ultrasonographic evaluation of optic nerve thickness and its relationship with nocturnal hypoxemia remains poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate optic nerve thickness and globe dimensions using ocular ultrasonography in patients with different ...

ABSTRACT This study aimed to compare efficacy and safety of ultrasound‐guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) using liposomal (LB) versus conventional bupivacaine (CB), each plus standardized gabapentin, in patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). A total of 116 PHN patients were randomized to ESPB‐LB or ESPB‐CB; both groups received standardized ...
