Delayed iliopsoas abscess following COVID-19 pneumonia

Ryuichiro Takaki, Masaru Ando, Yoshio Satonaga, Michitoshi Yabe, Takamasa Kan, Erika Omote, Shoma Hirota, Sonoe Uchida, Toru Yamasaki, Kosaku Komiya, Kazufumi Hiramatsu

Summary: Bacterial co-infection can worsen the prognosis of patients with viral infections. This study reported two cases of iliopsoas abscess in patients with COVID-19, a comorbidity that has not been previously reported. The comorbidity of iliopsoas abscess may have been underestimated in these cases despite the use of immunosuppressive therapy for COVID-19 pneumonia.

Effects of rapid response team on patient outcomes: A systematic review

Qiuxia Zhang, Khuan Lee, Zawiah Mansor, Iskasymar Ismail, Yi Guo, Qiao Xiao, Poh Ying Lim

Summary: This study conducted a systematic review to understand the effect of rapid response teams (RRT) on patient outcomes. The results showed that, despite variation in context and intervention type, most studies demonstrated that RRT positively impacts patient outcomes.

Lung ultrasound score for monitoring the withdrawal of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation on neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome

Hong-Lin Wu, Si-Jia Zhou, Xiu-Hua Chen, Hua Cao, Yi-Rong Zheng, Qiang Chen

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the value of LUS score at VA-ECMO withdrawal in neonatal ARDS patients. The results showed that LUS score significantly improved during VA-ECMO treatment and could be used to evaluate various lung diagnostic signs. Additionally, LUS score was positively correlated with ECMO blood flow and could predict ECMO weaning success.

A family intervention to prevent postoperative delirium in patients undergoing cardiac valve surgery: A randomized controlled study

Lingyu Lin, Yanchun Peng, Xizhen Huang, Sailan Li, Liangwan Chen, Yanjuan Lin

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of family intervention on the incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) and ICU prognoses of patients undergoing cardiac valve surgery. The results showed that family intervention could reduce the incidence of POD, shorten ICU stays, reduce the incidence of anxiety and depression in family caregivers, and improve their satisfaction. Therefore, family intervention is of significant importance for patients undergoing cardiac valve surgery.

Causal relationship between asthma and inflammatory bowel disease : A two-sample bidirectional mendelian randomization analysis

Jianxiong Lai, Bin Fang, Lirong Luo, Wenjie Xie, Yuanhui Xu, Jian Li

Summary: This study used two-sample bidirectional mendelian randomization to explore the causal link between asthma and inflammatory bowel disease. The researchers found a negative correlation between asthma and Crohn's disease. However, further research is needed to confirm this finding.

Pulmonary Vascular Volume by Quantitative CT in Dyspneic Smokers with Minor Emphysema

Amany F. F. Elbehairy, Sandra G. G. Vincent, Devin B. B. Phillips, Matthew D. D. James, Jenna Veugen, Grace Parraga, Denis E. E. O'donnell, J. Alberto Neder

Summary: Reduced lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) at rest and increased ventilation-carbon dioxide output during exercise are common findings in dyspneic smokers with preserved FEV1. It is unclear whether these abnormalities are solely due to emphysematous destruction or impaired pulmonary perfusion in non-emphysematous tissue.

PTD-FGF2 Attenuates Elastase Induced Emphysema in Mice and Alveolar Epithelial Cell Injury

Soojin Jang, Hanbyeol Lee, Jaehyun Park, Sang-Ryul Cha, Jooyeon Lee, Youngheon Park, Sang Ho Jang, Jeong-Ran Park, Seok-Ho Hong, Se-Ran Yang

Summary: This study investigated the effects of protein transduction domains (PTD) conjugated Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF2) (PTD-FGF2) on MLE-12 cells and porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE)-induced emphysematous mice in response to cigarette smoke extract (CSE). The results showed that PTD-FGF2 treatment significantly decreased alveolar epithelium inflammation and pro-inflammatory cytokines in PPE-induced mice, as well as reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and cytokine levels in MLE-12 cells.

LncRNA H19 Contributes to Smoke-Related Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by Targeting miR-181/PDCD4 Axis

Panpan Liu, Hongchang Gao, Yumeng Wang, Yujuan Li, Lei Zhao

Summary: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of death worldwide, with over 3 million people dying from it each year. Despite progress in treating symptoms and preventing acute exacerbations, little has been done to slow disease progression or reduce mortality. This study aimed to uncover the therapeutic mechanism of exercise in COPD through both in vivo and in vitro experiments. The results showed that exercise improves COPD-induced lung injury by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Additionally, the study found that the lncRNA H19 plays a role in smoke-related COPD by targeting the miR-181/PDCD4 Axis.

A retrospective study on immune-related pneumonitis in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer undergoing treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors

Dorthe Yakymenko, Kristin Skougaard

Summary: This study aimed to explore the diagnosis and management of immune-related (ir-)pneumonitis in lung cancer patients undergoing treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Suspected ir-pneumonitis was frequent in this patient group, but diagnostic conclusions were often uncertain and treatment duration exceeded recommendations. Furthermore, pulmonologist involvement was rare. The study highlights the challenges in diagnosing and managing lung cancer patients presenting with pulmonary symptoms in daily clinical practice.
