Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of diaphragmatic dome motion in COPD patients

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Diaphragmatic dysfunction is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in emphysema, where hyperinflation alters diaphragm geometry and impairs inspiratory mechanics. However, quantitative three‐dimensional (3D) assessments of diaphragmatic dome shape and motion across COPD phenotypes are limited.

Establishing an in vivo large animal model of one-lung ventilation and operative lung trauma.

PLoS ONE
BackgroundRespiratory complications, including acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), are important causes of morbidity and mortality among lung surgery patients. Lung surgery introduces surgical and atelectatic trauma to

Improvement of lung preservation - From experiment to clinical practice [PDF]

, 2002
Background. Reperfusion injury represents a severe early complication following lung transplantation. Among the pathogenetic factors, the high potassium content of Euro-Collins(R) solution is discussed.

Increasing the inspiratory time and I:E ratio during mechanical ventilation aggravates ventilator-induced lung injury in mice

Critical Care, 2015
IntroductionLung-protective ventilation reduced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) mortality. To minimize ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), tidal volume is limited, high plateau pressures are avoided, and positive end-expiratory pressure ...

Dose‐related propofol resistance in COVID‐19 patients: Altered drug plasma levels, mechanistic insights from neuronal‐derived extracellular vesicles and miRNA analysis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Critical care for COVID‐19 patients presents unique challenges, particularly in sedation management. Patients demonstrate notable dose‐related resistance to propofol, potentially due to complex pharmacokinetic alterations. Emerging evidence suggests that plasma extracellular vesicle‐associated miRNA represents valuable predictive ...

YAP activity protects against ventilator-induced lung injury

Frontiers in Physiology
IntroductionMechanical ventilation (MV) activates inflammatory signaling pathways, leading to ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), the activation of lung repair processes, persistent inflammatory stimulation and incomplete tissue repair leads to ...

Optimal Strategies of Mechanical Ventilation: Can We Avoid or Reduce Lung Injury?

Neonatology
Background: Despite the increasing use of non-invasive support modalities, many preterm infants still need invasive mechanical ventilation. Mechanical ventilation can lead to so-called ventilator-induced lung injury, which is considered an important risk

Compliant hydrogel cuff coating with real‐time pressure monitoring and antibiofilm capabilities for ventilator‐associated pneumonia prophylaxis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A soft‐compliant hydrogel cuff coating combines real‐time pressure monitoring with intrinsic antibacterial activity for prophylaxis of ventilator‐associated pneumonia. A flexible pressure‐sensing patch is embedded in the coating to enable wireless dynamic monitoring of endotracheal cuff pressure through Bluetooth.
