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

open access: yesThe 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.

Deguelin attenuates reperfusion injury and improves outcome after orthotopic lung transplantation in the rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The main goal of adequate organ preservation is to avoid further cellular metabolism during the phase of ischemia. However, modern preservation solutions do rarely achieve this target.

Lung injury promoted by strong inspiratory efforts and breath stacking: impact of ventilation mode

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental
Background Breath stacking, particularly double triggering, is a common patient–ventilator asynchrony during strong inspiratory effort. It can cause excessive tidal volumes and high transpulmonary pressures, contributing to ventilator-induced lung injury

Paediatric development of radiopharmaceutical imaging agents and radioligand therapeutics

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract This review focuses on the development of radiopharmaceutical imaging agents and radioligand therapeutics for paediatric use. Nuclear medicine plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of various childhood conditions, including cancers, infections and brain disorders.

Heparin-binding protein in ventilator-induced lung injury

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2018
Background Although mechanical ventilation is often lifesaving, it can also cause injury to the lungs. The lung injury is caused by not only high pressure and mechanical forces but also by inflammatory processes that are not fully understood.

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

open access: yesBritish 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 ...

Lung purinoceptor activation triggers ventilator-induced brain injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
OBJECTIVES: Mechanical ventilation can cause ventilator-induced brain injury via afferent vagal signaling and hippocampal neurotransmitter imbalances. The triggering mechanisms for vagal signaling during mechanical ventilation are unknown.

Bilateral phrenic nerve block to reduce hazardous respiratory drive in a mechanically ventilated patient with COVID‐19—A case report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Key Clinical Message Forced inspiration during mechanical ventilation risks self‐inflicted lung injury. However, controlling it with sedation or paralysis may cause polyneuropathy and myopathy.

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

open access: yesBMEMat, 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.

Initiation of Gabapentin with Opioids and Risk of Respiratory Cardiovascular and Opioid‐Related Adverse Events Following Surgery for Breast Cancer

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Pain is a key determinant of quality‐of‐life following breast cancer surgery, the most common cancer operation in the United States. Gabapentinoids are frequently prescribed for pain management, yet their respiratory, cardiovascular, and opioid‐related adverse effects remain unclear.
