An Integrated Prehospital Point‐of‐Care Lung Ultrasound Protocol for Patients with Dyspnea
Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.We present a time‐efficient, clinically integrated lung ultrasound protocol tailored for prehospital use by providers not yet routinely using ultrasound. Specifically designed to support the recognition of pneumothorax and interstitial syndrome, the protocol emphasizes operational feasibility, spectrum‐based diagnostic reasoning, and strict time ...

Deresuscitation Informed by Ultrasound in Patients with Septic Shock Trial
Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.Objectives The venous excess ultrasound (VExUS) can be used at the point‐of‐care to identify venous overload and end‐organ congestion in an effort to individually tailor resuscitation and deresuscitation in patients with septic shock. Methods We conducted a pilot randomized controlled feasibility trial of VExUS‐guided fluid management in adult patients

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explored the therapeutic efficacy of oxymatrine (OMT, C15H24N2O2) in a murine model of cigarette smoke (CS)‐induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and elucidated its underlying mechanisms. A COPD model was established in mice through prolonged exposure to CS, followed by intraperitoneal administration of OMT (50 mg/kg)

Acromegaly Presenting With Cricoarytenoid Joint Arthropathy
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Excess growth hormone in acromegaly induces characteristic acral and soft tissue overgrowth (particularly in the face and hands), arthropathies, as well as cardiovascular and metabolic complications. Similar proliferative changes can occur in the larynx, where hypertrophy of the arytenoid and cricoid cartilages may impair vocal fold mobility.
