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

Heparin-binding protein in ventilator-induced lung injury
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.

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]
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.

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.

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.
