Jarcho–Levin syndrome: A rare case of thoracic insufficiency syndrome in a newborn
Background: Jarcho–Levin syndrome (JLS) is a rare, congenital skeletal disorder involving the spine and the ribs, resulting in varying degrees of thoracic insufficiency, presenting at birth. We report such a case in a tribal population in India. Clinical

The Role of Lung Ultrasound in Diagnosis of Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Newborn Infants
Background: Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is one of the most common causes of neonatal respiratory failure and mortality. The risk of developing RDS decreases with both increasing gestational age and birth weight.

N,N,N-Trimethyl chitosan as a permeation enhancer for inhalation drug delivery: interaction with a model pulmonary surfactant [PDF]
N,N,N-Trimethyl chitosan (TMC), a biocompatible and biodegradable derivative of chitosan, is currently used as a permeation enhancer to increase the translocation of drugs to the bloodstream in the lungs. This article discusses the effect of TMC on a mimetic pulmonary surfactant, Curosurf, a low-viscosity lipid formulation administered to preterm ...

Thromboelastometry in Neonates with Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Pilot Study
Background: Although respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) constitutes a postnatal risk factor for bleeding and thromboembolic events in neonates, few studies have addressed this issue. We aimed to evaluate the hemostatic profile of neonates with RDS using

Deep Learning-Based Detection of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: What Are the Models Learning? [PDF]
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of hypoxemic respiratory failure with in-hospital mortality of 35-46%. High mortality is thought to be related in part to challenges in making a prompt diagnosis, which may in turn delay implementation of evidence-based therapies.

Despite of improved survival of premature infants, the incidence of long term pulmonary complications, mostly associated with ventilation-induced lung injury, remains high.
