Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Influence of intra-abdominal pressure on ventilatory mechanical power delivery and respiratory driving pressure during laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology
Background and Aims: Pneumoperitoneum creation for laparoscopic surgery increases the intraabdominal pressure and causes alveolar atelectasis. We investigated the influence of an increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) on ventilatory mechanical power (

Trendelenburg positioning with or without norepinephrine infusion for haemodynamic support in anaesthetised hypovolemic horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Intraoperative haemorrhage during equine anaesthesia is a rare but potentially fatal complication requiring prompt haemodynamic support. Postural manoeuvres such as Trendelenburg (TL) positioning and vasopressor support augment venous return and improve cardiac output (CO), yet their efficacy in anaesthetised hypovolemic horses ...

A Student‐Led Tele‐Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) Program for Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) Survivors—A Pilot Implementation Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is a non‐invasive, evidence‐based treatment that is used to improve swallowing in head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors. This prospective, pilot implementation study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and potential clinical effectiveness of a novel student‐led tele‐EMST program for ...
