A Novel Decellularized Fibrocartilage Graft Promotes Tympanic Membrane Repair

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An off‐the‐shelf decellularized porcine meniscus fibrocartilage graft (MEND) is engineered for pediatric tympanoplasty. Featuring a microchannel architecture that promotes host cell invasion, MEND rapidly closes tympanic membrane perforations and fully remodels in vivo, outperforming fascia and matching cartilage grafts while avoiding donor‐site ...

A case in which a capnometer was useful for diagnosing laryngospasm following administration of sugammadex

JA Clinical Reports, 2017
Background Sugammadex has been reported to cause upper-airway obstruction, such as laryngospasm or bronchospasm. These two conditions are treated using different approaches, but the differential diagnosis is difficult.

Role of neurokinin‐A in recurrent airway obstruction

The FASEB Journal, 2007
Airway hyper‐reactivity (AH) is the hall mark of recurrent airway obstruction (RAO) in horses. Of several inflammatory mediators responsible for AH, neurokinin‐A (NKA) has played a role in human and guinea pig AH. NKA causes severe bronchoconstriction by binding to neurokinin‐2 (NK‐2) receptors.

DNA binding activity of transcription factors in bronchial cells of horses with recurrent airway obstruction. [PDF]

, 2006
peer reviewedHorses with recurrent airway obstruction (RAO) present many similarities with human asthmatics including airway inflammation, hyperresponsiveness, reversible obstruction, and increased NF-kappaB expression.

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Exercise‐induced airflow changes in horses with asthma measured by electrical impedance tomography

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2021
Background Equine asthma (EA) causes airflow impairment, which increases in severity with exercise. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is an imaging technique that can detect airflow changes in standing healthy horses during a histamine provocation ...

Alpha 1-adrenergic-induced airway obstruction in ponies with recurrent pulmonary disease [PDF]

, 1988
We examined the response of five ponies with recurrent airway obstruction (principals) and five age- and gender-matched controls to the aerosol alpha-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine after blockade with propranolol and atropine.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

Recurrent airway obstruction in horses - an allergic inflammation: a review

Veterinární Medicína, 2011
Recurrent airway obstruction (RAO), also known as heaves, is a debilitating and incurable disease of the equine airway. Affected horses develop bronchoconstriction and neutrophilic airway inflammation as a result of exposure to specific airborne ...
