Survival and Hemodynamic Effects of Parenteral Prostanoids in High-Altitude Group 1 Pulmonary Hypertension: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background In Latin America, the evidence regarding the use of prostanoids at high altitude in patients with Group 1 pulmonary hypertension (PH‐1) is limited. Therefore, it is essential to describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes associated with prostanoid treatment in this population. Methods This retrospective study involved patients with PH‐1. Hemodynamic and clinical variables were compared before the initiation of prostanoids and during clinical follow‐up. Overall survival was...

Successful Pregnancy in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Hypertension Secondary to Pulmonary and Cardiac Hydatid Cysts: A Case Report.

Highlights Background: Pregnancy in women with pulmonary hypertension (PH) is contraindicated because of high mortality rates associated with physiological changes, particularly in the peripartum and postpartum periods. Termination is recommended early if pregnancy occurs. Consequently, clinical experience with continued pregnancy in patients with PH is scarce. Case Presentation: A 31-year-old woman was diagnosed with multiple bilateral pulmonary and right ventricular hydatid cysts. After su...

High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation Combined With Inhaled Nitric Oxide for Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn: A Single-Center Randomized Clinical Trial.

Background Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) may respond incompletely to inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) when poorly recruited lung limits delivery to ventilated alveoli. We evaluated whether high‐frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) combined with iNO improved clinical and physiologic outcomes compared with conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) + iNO or HFOV alone. Methods In this prospective, single‐center, 3‐arm, open‐label randomized clinical trial, 138 neonates bo...

The Prevalence of Intestinal Parasitic Infections in Labor Children in Karaj, Alborz Province, Iran.

Background: Child labor (CL) is the exploitation of children through any work or activity that interferes with their ability to attend school or is harmful to their mental, physical, social, or moral well-being. Unfortunately, child laborers are a shadow population for which specific information on the prevalence of intestinal parasites is not available; we aimed to estimate the prevalence of intestinal parasites among child laborers in Karaj-Alborz, Iran. Methods: The present study was condu...

HuangE Capsules Improve Bladder Function in BOO-induced Overactive Bladder Rats: Network Pharmacology and Experimental Validation.

Aims Our objective is to assess the therapeutic impact of HEC on OAB rats and investigate potential mechanisms. Background Overactive bladder (OAB) is a syndrome of urinary storage symptoms characterized by “urinary urgency with or without urinary acute incontinence, usually accompanied by increased daytime and nocturnal urination”, which impacts patients’ quality of life. We found the potential therapeutic impact of HuangE capsules (HEC) on OAB patients through clinical practice. However, th...

The association of parental use of new tobacco products and combustible cigarettes with nausea and vomiting in pregnancy: a cross-sectional study.

Background New tobacco products, including heated tobacco products and electronic cigarettes, are rapidly increasing in popularity among younger populations worldwide, particularly in Japan. Thus, clarifying the effects of both active and passive smoking of new tobacco products during pregnancy is an urgent public health concern. We focused on nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) which is traditionally and epidemiologically considered an indicator of healthy pregnancy progression. In this stu...

Nalmefene Mitigates Opioid-Induced Nausea and Vomiting in Postoperative Analgesia but Not Resting Pain.

Background Patient‐controlled analgesia (PCA) pumps have emerged as the prevalent modality for managing postoperative pain. Opioids, although widely utilized as analgesic agents in these pumps, are often accompanied by undesirable side effects that can compromise patient comfort and hinder the widespread adoption of PCA therapy. Methods We conducted a retrospective study involving 392 patients undergoing lumbar spine surgery who were prescribed PCA pumps for pain relief. Over the initial 1–3...

Enhancing the Visibility of Multiple Sclerosis Lesions using Fused Images of Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) and white matter Attenuated Inversion Recovery (WAIR) MRI Sequences.

Introduction Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system in which accurate lesion detection is essential for diagnosis and follow-up. Although the Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) MRI sequence is routinely used, it may underestimate lesions in certain brain regions. This study evaluated whether fused images generated using minimum pixel value extraction (MinPE) from FLAIR and white matter–attenuated inversion recovery (WAIR) sequences improve...

Associating a Polygenic Risk Score for Multiple Sclerosis with Brain MRI Metrics and Cognitive Performance in Healthy UK Biobank Participants.

Purpose Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Although a polygenic risk score for MS (MS-PRS) is associated with disease susceptibility, its relationship with white matter (WM) microstructure and cognition in neurologically healthy individuals remains unclear. This study investigated associations of MS-PRS with diffusion MRI metrics and cognitive function in healthy individuals. Methods This cross...

Phase Image Display Settings for Paramagnetic Rim Lesion Detection in Multiple Sclerosis: A Practical Guide.

The 2024 revisions of the McDonald criteria incorporate the paramagnetic rim lesion (PRL) into the diagnostic framework of multiple sclerosis, and PRL evolution is increasingly recognized as a marker of disease progression. PRLs are detected on phase images of susceptibility-sensitive sequences, but their visibility depends critically on display settings. Current consensus recommendations provide detailed guidance on acquisition parameters yet do not address the phase-image window/level applied...
