Persistent Post‐Traumatic Brain Injury Hiccups Unresponsive to Standard Agents: Resolution Associated With Levetiracetam Therapy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Post‐traumatic hiccups are an uncommon but distressing complication of traumatic brain injury (TBI), often resistant to conventional pharmacological agents, and the underlying mechanism may involve central neurological disruption of inhibitory pathways rather than gastrointestinal or metabolic aetiologies. We report a male patient in his early

Toll-like Receptor 4 Signaling in Ventilator-induced Diaphragm Atrophy.

, 2012
BACKGROUND:: Mechanical ventilation induces diaphragm muscle atrophy, which plays a key role in difficult weaning from mechanical ventilation. The signaling pathways involved in ventilator-induced diaphragm atrophy are poorly understood.

Feasibility of transesophageal phrenic nerve stimulation

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2023
Background Every year, more than 2.5 million critically ill patients in the ICU are dependent on mechanical ventilation. The positive pressure in the lungs generated by the ventilator keeps the diaphragm passive, which can lead to a loss of myofibers ...

Update on the Pathophysiology, Aetiology and Management of Central Sleep Apnoea

Respirology, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 873-881, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Central sleep apnoea (CSA) of the periodic breathing type occurs during the transition between wakefulness and stage 1 and 2 non‐REM sleep. In adults at sea level, it occurs most commonly due to advanced heart failure (HF) or chronic opioid use and in ~5% of obstructive sleep apnoea patients initiating CPAP.

Mechanical ventilation causes diaphragm dysfunction in newborn lambs

Critical Care, 2019
Background Diaphragm weakness occurs rapidly in adult animals treated with mechanical ventilation (MV), but the effects of MV on the neonatal diaphragm have not been determined.

A 4D geometric morphometrics workflow to quantify complex biological motion

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 9, Page 2616-2628, September 2026.
Abstract Quantifying biological motion is fundamentally tied to quantifying the biological structures that produce that motion. Yet, this dependence makes it essential to decouple motion from static morphology to enable general, comparable analyses across individuals and conditions. In this work, we present a methodological pipeline to study biological

When CO2 sensing fails: Protective effects of sex hormones and potential mechanisms

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Breathing movements driven by the brainstem rhythmogenic neural networks rely on chemosensory inputs to produce a motor output that is homeostatically adjusted to the prevailing metabolic demand. The central CO2 chemoreflex is a critical component of respiratory neural circuitry, as defects in these sensors cause hypoventilation syndromes ...

Retrospective Analysis of Survival and Adverse Effects Associated With Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in 12 Dogs With Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 485-498, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This retrospective analysis evaluated 12 dogs with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Dogs received between 6 and 25 Grey (Gy) per fraction for 1–5 fractions for a total dose of 13–30 Gy. Eleven patients (92%) experienced acute adverse effects (AE), with the majority being VRTOG grade 2–3 ...
