The Lectin Pathway of Complement in Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury—Review of Its Significance and the Potential Impact of Therapeutic Interference by C1 Esterase Inhibitor

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in modern medicine. Early reperfusion accomplished by primary percutaneous coronary intervention is pivotal for reducing myocardial damage in ST elevation AMI.

Cancer co‐medication quality in older patients with polypharmacy: A large randomized trial testing a medication review versus usual care

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) testing medication reviews in geriatric oncology is sparse. Methods We conducted a single‐blinded RCT in ten rehabilitation clinics across Germany. Patients with common cancers, aged ≥ 65 years, and polypharmacy (regularly ≥ five drugs) were randomly allocated in equal proportions to

Putting the brakes on muscle growth: Myostatin as regulator of disuse atrophy

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that rapidly adapts to changes in mechanical loading and metabolic activity. Periods of inactivity, including bed rest, limb immobilization or microgravity, induce a pronounced loss of muscle mass and function.

Changes of diaphragmatic excursion and lung compliance during major laparoscopic pelvic surgery: A prospective observational study.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Major laparoscopic pelvic surgery requires steep Trendelenburg position with pneumoperitoneum for a long time. We investigated the effect of Trendelenburg position with pneumoperitoneum on diaphragmatic excursion and lung compliance during major ...

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

Evaluation of optic nerve sheath diameter in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position: a prospective observational study

open access: yesAnnals of Saudi Medicine
BACKGROUND: The Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum may cause cerebral edema and increased intracranial pressure. Non-invasive measurement of the diameter of the optic nerve sheath by ultrasonography can provide early recognition of intracranial ...
