While phasic electrical activity of the cricopharyngeus muscle (EAcp)-the main component of the upper esophageal sphincter-occurs with inspiration and forceful expiration in adults, no such data is available for newborns. In addition, the effect of nasal respiratory support commonly used in newborns is unknown. We aimed to describe the phasic respiratory EAcp and to assess the potential effect of nasal CPAP (nCPAP, 6 cmHO) or high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC, 7 L/min) in newborn lambs during 6-h recordings.

  • * Analysis found significant changes in 77 metabolites (like amino acids and sugars) in critical COVID-19 patients compared to those with mild symptoms.
  • * Among moderately ill patients treated with tocilizumab, only 10 metabolites differed in those who improved versus those who worsened, with high levels of anthranilic acid linked to poor outcomes, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for treatment.
