Enteric neuropathy and the vagus nerve: Therapeutic implications

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Abstract Enteric neuropathies are characterized by abnormalities of gut innervation, which includes the enteric nervous system, inducing severe gut dysmotility among other dysfunctions. Most of the gastrointestinal tract is innervated by the vagus nerve, the efferent branches of which have close interconnections with the enteric nervous system and ...

RoMedFormer: A Rotary-Embedding Transformer Foundation Model for 3D Genito-Pelvic Structure Segmentation in MRI and CT [PDF]

arXiv
Deep learning-based segmentation of genito-pelvic structures in MRI and CT is crucial for applications such as radiation therapy, surgical planning, and disease diagnosis. However, existing segmentation models often struggle with generalizability across imaging modalities, and anatomical variations.

Autonomic Nervous System in Bone Remodeling: From Mechanisms to Novel Therapies in Orthopedic Diseases

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Due to the close connection between the autonomic nervous system and skeletal system, large amounts of evidence have shown that neuromodulation plays a crucial role in regulating bone metabolism. Clinically, neuromodulation has exhibited promising therapeutic effects in treating joint disorders by significantly reducing inflammation and clinical scores.

From Venous to Arterial Blood in the Same Tunneled Dialysis Catheter After Starting a Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy: A Case Report

Seminars in Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tunneled dialysis catheter is the alternative for dialysis patients who cannot benefit from an arteriovenous fistula. The insertion of such catheters is usually ultrasound‐guided to prevent complications. A 36‐year old patient had an unexpected complication following the insertion of a right femoral tunneled dialysis catheter: Although the ...

Effectiveness of prehospital chest decompression in resolving clinical signs of tension pneumothorax

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Thoracic injuries are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in military trauma. Tension pneumothorax (TPX) is a critical diagnosis that can lead to rapid hemodynamic and respiratory collapse if untreated. While timely intervention is essential, prehospital TPX diagnosis is challenging and may lead to unnecessary interventions ...
