Comprehensive ventilation/perfusion SPECT
Lung scintigraphy is the primary tool for diagnostics of pulmonary embolism. A perfusion study is often complemented by a ventilation study. Intermediate probability scans are frequent.

Dead-space ventilation as a determinant in the ventilation-perfusion concept
Gas exchange in an alveolus is affected by the redistribution of dead-space gas during inspiration. Theoretical analysis of the total ventilation of an alveolus permits the description of several new concepts.

From Physiology to Bioheat Simulation: A Data‐Driven Framework for Core Temperature Initialization
ABSTRACT Accurate initialization of core body temperature is a critical yet often overlooked component of bioheat transfer models, particularly when such models are applied to heterogeneous populations and real‐world environmental conditions. Conventional bioheat simulations typically rely on fixed or idealized core body temperature values derived from

ABSTRACT Background Long‐acting muscarinic antagonists/long‐acting beta adrenoreceptor agonists lead to lung deflation and improved microvascular perfusion in hyperinflated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but with an unclear time course. Purpose To investigate the effect of inhalation of tiotropium/olodaterol (TIO/OLO) on MRI measures of ...

ABSTRACT Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is characterized by cardiomyocyte death, excessive oxidative stress, inflammation, and ferroptosis, which collectively limit the efficacy of reperfusion therapy. In this study, we investigated whether kaempferol (KAE), a natural flavonol with antioxidative and antiinflammatory properties, could ...

ABSTRACT This retrospective cohort study evaluated the association between estimated plasma volume status (ePVS) and in‐hospital mortality in adult patients with sepsis from the MIMIC‐IV (v2.2) database. After excluding patients with early death, readmission, red blood cell transfusion, malignancy, or missing ePVS data, 17,403 patients meeting Sepsis‐3

Lung ventilation/perfusion SPECT in the artificially embolized pig.
Planar lung scintigraphy is a standard method used for the diagnosis of lung embolism, but it is hampered by the high incidence of nondiagnostic tests. Ventilation/perfusion SPECT may possibly improve this situation.

Evaluating the Local Response of a Novel Injectable Capsule for Drug Delivery in the Trachea
A novel PLGA polymer capsule was developed for localized pretracheal drug delivery and evaluated for short‐term local tissue safety in a rabbit model. Implant placement was confirmed by ultrasound and was well tolerated over 14 days, with preservation of airway patency, native tracheal architecture, and biomechanical properties.
