Gastric dilatation secondary to incarceration through a gastrosplenic omental rent in a dog

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 2‐year‐old, entire, female Dogue de Bordeaux presented with inappetence and abdominal distension. Radiographs revealed gastric dilatation and malpositioning. Given the absence of classical signs of gastric dilatation and volvulus, a medical approach was elected. After 24 hours, the dog's condition deteriorated.

Eosinophil and T Cell Markers Predict Functional Decline in COPD Patients [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND. The major marker utilized to monitor COPD patients is forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1). However, asingle measurement of FEV1 cannot reliably predict subsequent decline.

Why are our roe deer short of breath? – prevalence and promotive factors of lung parasites in roe deer Capreolus capreolus in south‐eastern Germany

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The existence of bronchopulmonary nematodes in German roe deer Capreolus capreolus is well documented, with two types of lung parasites that have been described previously: Dictyocaulus capreolus and Varestrongylus capreoli. However, little is known about the impact of these parasites on their host animal or which parameters influence outbreak and ...

The impact of emphysema in pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]

European Respiratory Review, 2013
Several groups have described a syndrome in which idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) coexists with pulmonary emphysema. This comes as no surprise since both diseases are associated with a history of exposure to cigarette smoke. The syndrome of combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) is characterised by upper lobe emphysema and lower lobe ...

Clinical Significance of Bronchodilator Responsiveness Evaluated by Forced Vital Capacity in COPD: SPIROMICS Cohort Analysis. [PDF]

, 2019
ObjectiveBronchodilator responsiveness (BDR) is prevalent in COPD, but its clinical implications remain unclear. We explored the significance of BDR, defined by post-bronchodilator change in FEV1 (BDRFEV1) as a measure reflecting the change in flow and ...

Perioperative Mechanical Circulatory Support for Cardiac Assistance in Thoracic Surgery: A Scoping Review

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
High‐risk cardiac patients may benefit from timely temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) implantation to provide perioperative hemodynamic stabilization and circulatory support, thus enabling them to undergo life‐saving thoracic surgery. CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass; IABP: intra‐aortic balloon pump; tMCS: temporary mechanical circulatory ...

Underdiagnosis of Alpha‐1 Antitrypsin Deficiency in Cirrhotic Liver Transplant Candidates: Findings From a Multicenter Retrospective Study

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Only 40% of AATD patients were diagnosed pre‐LT, revealing major gaps in current screening practices. Improved diagnostic practices and new treatments will substantially enhance patient outcomes and overall management of AATD. ABSTRACT Background and Aims Alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a prevalent genetic disorder in Europe causing hepatic ...

Long‐term outcome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation for GATA2 deficiency: An analysis of 67 adults and children from France and Belgium

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
The overall survival of patients receiving an allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for GATA2 deficiency was significantly better if they were transplanted recently, with a bone marrow or cord blood graft and if the transplant was performed before the onset of excess blast. Excess blast before HSCT was the only factor associated with an

Classification of lung disease in HRCT scans using integral geometry measures and functional data analysis [PDF]

, 2010
A framework for classification of chronic lung disease from high-resolution CT scans is presented. We use a set of features which measure the local morphology and topology of the 3D voxels within the lung parenchyma and apply functional data classification

Klotho Regulates Club Cell Senescence and Differentiation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
We speculated lack of Klotho (KL) would aggravate club cell senescence, which contributes to COPD inflammation. In this study, we collected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) lung tissue using single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq), revealing club cell heterogeneity and cellular senescence in COPD.
