Fundamental concepts and the latest evidence for esophageal pressure monitoring

Journal of Intensive Care, 2023
Transpulmonary pressure is an essential physiologic concept as it reflects the true pressure across the alveoli, and is a more precise marker for lung stress.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Curative effect of pleural lavage on open chest trauma caused by seawater immersion

Annals of Saudi Medicine, 2013
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Open chest trauma with seawater immersion can lead systematic inflammatory response and multiple organ dysfunction syndromes (MODS). Early intervention of seawater immersion significantly decreases mortality. This study aims to

A Novel Pak1 Activator Ameliorates ER Stress for HFpEF Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic metabolic stress is a major contributor to HFpEF progression. Under prolonged metabolic stress, Pak1 activity becomes impaired, contributing to disrupted ER proteostasis, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Mechanistically, Pak1 overexpression activates the ERK1/2–MNK1–eIF4E signaling axis, promotes translational ...

How alterations in pleural pressure influence esophageal pressure

, 1984
Although esophageal pressures have been substituted for direct pleural pressure measurement in humans, we have investigated the validity of this approach under circumstances when left and right pleural pressures are not equal.

Experimental analysis of the pressure–velocity correlations of external unsteady flow over rocket launchers [PDF]

, 2013
Based on simultaneous wall pressure and velocity measurements, the aerodynamic load of a launcher body model is investigated. Two different configurations are considered in order to study the influence of geometrical artifacts on the after body flow and ...

Positive-pressure ventilation attenuates subarachnoid-pleural fistula after thoracic spinal surgery: A report of two cases

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2019
Background: Dural tear and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is known to be a complication of anterior thoracic spine surgery. If dural tear occurs on the ventral side of dura in combination with a pleural injury, it potentially becomes a subarachnoid ...

Stress Hyperglycemia Drives CD4+ T Cell PANoptosis and Postoperative Organ Injury via Monocyte‐Derived Succinate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High glucose is linked to reduced succinate dehydrogenase activity in CD14+ monocytes, accompanied by succinate accumulation and extracellular release. Extracellular succinate exacerbates mitochondrial ROS production and mtDNA release in CD4+ T cells. Cytosolic mtDNA then activates Z‐DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) and engages ZBP1‐associated inflammatory
