Prone Position Impairs Oxygen Supply-Demand Balance During Systemic Hypoxia in Rabbits [PDF]

open access: yes
Ventilation in the prone position improves the prognosis of patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Contraindications to ventilation in this position include unstable systemic circulation.

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Factors potentiating the risk of sudden infant death syndrome associated with the prone position

open access: yes, 1993
Background. In several studies the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) has been significantly associated with sleeping in the prone position. It is not known how the prone position increases the risk of SIDS. \ud \ud Methods. We analyzed data from a case-

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Prone position and APRV for severe hypoxemia in COVID-19 patients: The role of perfusion

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2020
There have been confusion and contradiction on how to best manage patients with acute respiratory failure secondary to Corona virus disease-2019 (COVID-19). Recent report suggested two different phenotypes of patho-physiology (type L and type H).

Internal Jugular Vein Cannulation in Prone Position

open access: yesCritical Care Explorations, 2023
Since 1970, prone decubitus (PD) has been used as adjuvant therapy to treat severe hypoxia in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and now with the COVID-19 pandemic, its use has become widespread in ICUs.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.
