Myasthenia Gravis and Thymoma

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 4, Page 1156-1173, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Thymoma is the most common tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Approximately 20%–30% of patients with a thymoma develop myasthenia gravis (MG), and an additional one third may possess positive acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies without MG.

High- and intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism in pediatric tertiary care centers in the Netherlands

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis
Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) response teams are increasingly used in adult care to improve severe PE management. Understanding the epidemiology, treatment, and outcomes of severe PE in children is crucial to assessing the need for pediatric PE ...

A Multidisciplinary Approach to the Anesthetic Management of Patients With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder with multisystem involvement that causes progressive muscular weakness and cardiorespiratory dysfunction. The first comprehensive recommendations regarding anesthetic management are now almost 20 years old and, in the interval, DMD care has evolved.

The conducting airways before and after gender‐affirming hormone therapy in transgender individuals

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 10, Page 4277-4285, 1 October 2026.
Abstract On average, females have smaller airways than males. The largest discrepancy in airway size occurs during puberty, when endogenous sex hormone concentrations diverge between males and females. Transgender individuals often use gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) to align physical characteristics with gender identity.

Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism Undergoing Ultrasound‐Assisted Catheter‐Directed Thrombolysis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Ultrasound‐assisted catheter‐directed thrombolysis (USAT) for acute pulmonary embolism (PE) has garnered specific interest and is commonly employed in intermediate‐risk PE to prevent cardiac decompensation and death.

Heliox versus trimix in closed‐circuit rebreather diving: A comparative study of pulmonary and decompression stress in male divers

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 19, October 2026.
Abstract Closed‐circuit rebreather (CCR) and helium‐based breathing mixtures are widely used in technical diving. This study compared the effects of Heliox and Trimix on pulmonary function and decompression stress during CCR dives. Nineteen divers performed a standardized dive (50 ± 3 msw, 147 ± 10 min) using Heliox (16% O2/84% He; n = 9) or Trimix (16%

Circulatory Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support for High-Risk Acute Pulmonary Embolism

CHEST Critical Care
High-risk pulmonary embolism (PE), defined as obstruction of the pulmonary arterial tree that leads to hemodynamic instability, is a common cause of cardiac arrest, with a mortality rate of up to 50%.
