Difficulty in weaning and cardiopulmonary rehabilitation in inoperable severe mitral regurgitation: a case report

open access: yesHeart Vessels and Transplantation, 2018
Objective: Severe mitral valve insufficiency may lead to heart failure and associated hemodynamic repercussions, such as congestion and weaning-induced pulmonary oedema. This slows weaning from mechanical ventilation, increases the length of the hospital

Pulmonary valve papillary fibroelastoma: to PE or not to PE

open access: yes, 2023
Pulmonary valve (PV) fibroelastomas are a rare pathology, with limited anecdotal literature surrounding them. Consequently, the natural history is unclear; however, two features have remained salient; they are asymptomatic and found incidentally.

Postprandial Changes in Thoracic Aortic Flow Detected by 4D Flow MRI May Influence Study Results

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While there is a growing body of data using 4D flow MRI to distinguish between normal and abnormal blood flow values in the thoracic aorta, the extent of physiological variation or lack thereof is potentially undervalued. Physiological processes such as postprandial changes to hemodynamics might influence data, normal values, follow‐

Standardized MRI‐Based Quantification of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume: Reproducibility and Agreement With Cardiac Computed Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) is increasingly recognized as a cardiometabolic risk marker associated with adverse outcomes. The most established approach for EATV quantification is cardiac computed tomography (CT). MRI offers a radiation‐free alternative allowing simultaneous assessment of myocardial function and tissue ...

NETosis in the Kidney, Liver, and Lung of Mice With Cecal Ligation and Puncture‐Induced Sepsis and the Ameliorating Effects of Adipose‐Derived Stem Cell Exosomes

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sepsis‐induced organ failure involves dysregulated neutrophil responses, including neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation, via NETosis. Exosomes generated from adipose‐derived stem cells (ADSCs) have shown potential in sepsis treatment. This study characterized organ‐specific NETosis in the kidney, liver, and lungs using a murine cecal ...

Reference Equations for Peak Nasal Inspiratory and Expiratory Flow: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study developed reference equations for peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) and peak nasal expiratory flow (PNEF) in clinically healthy adults using sex, height, and weight. PNIF demonstrated lower residual variability and more stable model performance than PNEF, supporting its potential as a complementary tool for individualized interpretation of ...
