Modeling Supports Combinatorial Effects Between Pharmacological and Non‐Pharmacological Interventions to Prevent Opioid‐Induced Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Few studies have quantified the effects of non‐pharmacological interventions (e.g., rescue breathing) in the setting of community opioid overdose. We extended a previously validated model for opioid antagonists by incorporating the mechanism of rescue breathing, and quantified combinatorial effects between rescue breathing and various formulations of ...

Ischemic priapism as a model of exhausted metabolism

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
In vivo metabolic studies typically concern complex open systems. However, a closed system allows better assessment of the metabolic limits. Ischemic priapism (IP) constitutes a special model of the compartment syndrome that allows direct sampling from a

Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal Using a Renal Replacement Therapy Platform to Enhance Lung-Protective Ventilation in Hypercapnic Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019-Associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high mortality. Lung-protective ventilation is the current standard of care in patients with ARDS, but it might lead to hypercapnia, which is ...

Undisplayed Bicarbonate ion Concentration in Arterial Blood Gas Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2013
Blood bicarbonate ion concentration (BcHCO3 - ) is a vital parameter in the management of acid base disorders. In an arterial blood gas (ABG) analyzer, the BcHCO3 - is calculated from the values of pH and pCO2 .

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Successful perioperative management of living-donor liver transplantation for a patient with severe methylmalonic acidemia: a case report

open access: yesJA Clinical Reports, 2018
Background Methylmalonic acidemia (MMAemia) is a rare hereditary disease affecting organic acid metabolism. It causes recurrent metabolic acidosis and secondary mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in a poor prognosis. Liver transplantation (LT) has been

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Lactic Acidosis in Asthma: Report of Two Cases and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2002
Lactic acidosis is commonly associated with states of hypoxia and decreased tissue perfusion. Elevated lactic acid levels have also been observed in individuals who are not septic and who are normotensive, but who have received systemic adrenergic ...
