Background: Epithelial-mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is involved in various cancers including glioblastoma. Our previous study has shown that miR-340 negatively correlated with EMT process in glioblastoma.
Purpose: In the present study, we aim to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms of miR-340 in EMT process of glioblastomas.
Article Synopsis
- The study compared the effectiveness and safety of three intubation methods: the GlideScope (GS) video laryngoscope, CTrach laryngeal mask airway (LMA), and Shikani optical stylet (SOS) during elective cervical surgery.
- All patients were successfully intubated, but the GS took significantly less time (17.9 seconds) compared to SOS (40.4 seconds) and LMA (80.5 seconds).
- While the GS group had a higher mean arterial pressure shortly after intubation, the CTrach LMA and SOS were still effective and safe alternatives for performing intubation.
