Case Report: Thoracoscopic treatment of infradiaphragmatic pulmonary sequestration and intrathoracic kidney associated with congenital diaphragmatic hernia

Frontiers in Pediatrics
BackgroundCongenital pulmonary sequestration is a rare lung anomaly that can be classified as intralobar pulmonary sequestration or extralobar lung sequestration (ELS). Infradiaphragmatic pulmonary sequestration is a rare type of ELS.

Successful endovascular embolization of an intralobar pulmonary sequestration

Radiology Case Reports, 2018
Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital malformation characterized by dysplastic pulmonary tissue which receives blood supply by arterial systemic system, not in communication with tracheobronchial tree.

Understanding the influence of transfusion and blood loss on tranexamic acid concentration in scoliosis surgery with blood loss

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Tranexamic acid (TXA) stabilizes clot formation by inhibiting fibrin degradation and improves postoperative outcomes. However, rare adverse events (e.g., thrombosis, seizures) warrant dose–risk evaluation. This study examines how perioperative blood loss and transfusion practices affect TXA concentrations during paediatric scoliosis surgery ...

Pharmacokinetics of dolutegravir, tenofovir and lamivudine during venous–venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV‐ECMO): A case report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
While providing potentially life‐saving cardiorespiratory support for critically ill patients, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may detrimentally affect pharmacokinetic (PK) performance and concurrent drug efficacy and safety. We describe a patient with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in the context of acquired immunodeficiency ...

Harnessing nanomaterials to precisely regulate the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment for enhanced immunotherapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, characterized by hypoxia, redox imbalance, elevated interstitial fluid pressure, and acidity, was comprehensively elucidated. This review discussed the etiology and consequences of the characteristics of the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and analyzed the recent advancements in nanomaterials for ...

Intralobar pulmonary sequestration associated with congenital broncho-esophageal fistula

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2015
Pulmonary sequestration and congenital broncho-esophageal fistula are both rare malformations; nonetheless, in the presence of recurrent pulmonary infection, the possibility that one or the other may be involved should not be disregarded.

Superiority of the Rockwood Clinical Frailty Scale for Assessing Long‐Term Outcome in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty is associated with poorer short‐term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), and national guidelines recommend an assessment of frailty as part of the decision‐making process. However, multiple frailty indices are currently used in clinical practice, and it is unclear which has the best discrimination ...

One‐Stone‐Two‐Birds Carrier‐Free Nano‐Cocktail Enables Synergistic Eradication of Cancer Cells/Stem Cells in Breast Cancer Treatment

Exploration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are widely recognized as the culprits of chemoresistance, tumor metastasis, and relapse. Moreover, most chemotherapeutic drugs not only fail to eliminate CSCs effectively, but also induce the acquisition of stemness characteristics in non‐stem cancer cells. Herein, we propose a cancer cells/CSCs double‐killing modality
