ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Veno‐arterial extracorporeal life support (VA ECLS) is crucial for neonatal and paediatric patients with severe circulatory collapse but may cause left ventricular (LV) overload, affecting myocardial recovery and causing complications. Evidence on optimal LV decompression strategies in paediatric patients remains limited.

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lung ischemia/reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a primary contributor to morbidity and mortality following lung transplantation. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) protects the lungs from I/R injury, but the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain. This paper examined the protective effect of DEX in LIRI and elucidated the potential regulation involved. LIRI was

Prenatal Diagnosis of Horseshoe Lung: A Report of Three Cases and Review of the Literature
Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Horseshoe lung is a rare congenital malformation in which the lungs are fused by a parenchymal isthmus. The current literature is very limited regarding cases of prenatal diagnosis and their outcome. Method We retrospectively examined three cases of fetuses with horseshoe lung diagnosed antenatally in our center from 2015 to 2024 ...
