Continuous Respiratory Oscillometry in Pediatric Laparoscopic Surgery—The COMET Study

Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Laparoscopic appendectomy is the accepted surgical approach for appendicitis in centers worldwide. Laparoscopic surgery requires the creation of a pneumoperitoneum to facilitate surgical access. Laparoscopic surgery affects the respiratory mechanics of patients under general anesthesia.

Preclinical Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of a Novel Controlled‐Expansion ePTFE‐Covered TIPS Stent in a Swine Model

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This preclinical study evaluated a novel controlled‐expansion expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE)‐covered transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) stent in 11 swine, demonstrating 100% technical success, excellent deployability, and durable 6‐month angiographic patency without thrombosis, migration, fracture, or device‐related toxicity.

Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy in Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease: A Genotype-Stratified Study of PMP22 Duplication and GJB1 Mutation Carriers. [PDF]

J Peripher Nerv Syst
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Data on cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) are sparse in Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease. We aimed to determine the prevalence of CAN in CMT1A and CMTX1 and its associations with neuropathy severity and heart rate variability (HRV), compared with age‐ and sex‐matched controls. Methods Thirty‐six CMT1A, 24 CMTX1 patients,

Gentiopicroside Regulates EGFR and Induces Its Lysosomal Degradation to Attenuate Heart Failure

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
GPS attenuates pressure overload‐induced cardiac remodeling by promoting lysosomal degradation of EGFR. TAC‐induced EGFR accumulation activates AKT/ERK1/2 signaling and drives pathological cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and cardiac dysfunction. GPS promotes lysosome‐dependent EGFR degradation, thereby limiting excessive AKT/

Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy in Children Predicts OSA Severity

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While adenotonsillectomy (AT) is first line for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), treatment failure is common. Drug‐induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) provides dynamic airway assessment, but its role in predicting OSA severity requires clarification. This study correlates DISE findings with polysomnographic severity. Objective To

Lung V5 and Planning Target Volume/Lung Volume Ratio as Independent Risk Factors for ≥Grade 2 Radiation Pneumonitis after Moderately Hypofractionated Radiotherapy: A Retrospective Study

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
Lung V5 and the planning target volume/lung volume ratio were identified as independent dosimetric risk factors for clinically significant radiation pneumonitis following moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy for lung cancer. Maintaining V5 < 35% may help mitigate this risk in clinical practice.
