Robotic‐Assisted Extended Sistrunk Approach (RESA) for Salvage Surgery After Head and Neck Irradiation

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The robotic‐assisted extended “Sistrunk” approach (RESA) is a minimally invasive technique providing access to hypopharyngeal and laryngeal structures via a submental incision and vallecular pharyngotomy, bypassing the base of tongue.

A formula for predicting emphysema extent in combined idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema

Respiratory Research
Background No single pulmonary function test captures the functional effect of emphysema in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Without experienced radiologists, other methods are needed to determine emphysema extent. Here, we report the development and

Pulmonary interstitial emphysema presenting in a woman on the intensive care unit: case report and review of literature

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2011
Introduction Pulmonary interstitial emphysema is a life-threatening form of ventilator-induced lung injury. We present one of the few reported adult cases of pulmonary interstitial emphysema in a woman with respiratory failure admitted to our intensive ...

Microbiome and aging: Trajectories of microbiome age across human ecosystems and their systemic effects

iMeta, EarlyView.
Microbiome age (MA) has emerged as an innovative biomarker of biological aging, reflecting host aging trajectories through dynamic alterations in microbial composition, function, and host–microbe interactions across multiple body ecosystems. Diverse computational strategies—including traditional machine learning, deep learning, and multi‐omics ...

Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema syndrome: a radiologic perspective

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2015
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (that includes emphysema) results in significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is also a chronic and progressive parenchymal lung disease with an average survival of less than

Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Clinical outcomes of radial probe endobronchial ultrasound using a guide sheath for diagnosis of peripheral lung lesions in patients with pulmonary emphysema

Respiratory Research, 2019
Background Generally, structural destruction of lung parenchyma, such as pulmonary emphysema, is considered to be related to the low diagnostic yields and high complication rates of lung biopsies of peripheral lung lesions.

Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Postoperative pneumothorax (PPTX) is rare after thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy, occurring in up to 0.10% of cases. However, it is associated with increased risks of all‐cause mortality, adverse respiratory events, and healthcare utilization rates in up to 1 year after surgery, deeming PPTX as a potential marker of increased postoperative ...

Pulmonary Vascular Volume by Quantitative CT in Dyspneic Smokers with Minor Emphysema

COPD, 2023
Reduced lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) at rest and increased ventilation (⩒E)-carbon dioxide output (⩒CO2) during exercise are frequent findings in dyspneic smokers with largely preserved FEV1.

Feasibility and SNR Performance of Hyperpolarized 129Xe Gas Exchange Imaging Using a Balanced SSFP Sequence

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop a balanced SSFP (bSSFP) sequence for pulmonary 129Xe dissolved‐phase imaging based on a previously described double‐echo sequence facilitating separation into red blood cell and membrane signals, to test its feasibility and compare its SNR performance and imaging results to an analogous FLASH sequence.
