Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with unfavorable outcomes secondary to injury from activation of the inflammatory cascade, the release of excitotoxic neurotransmitters, and changes in the reactivity of cerebral vessels, causing ischemia. Inflammation induced by TBI is complex, individual-specific, and associated with morbidity and mortality. The aim of the present study was to discover the differentially expressed cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteins and identify which can improve the clinical outcomes in TBI patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assessed the effectiveness of CT pulmonary function imaging for identifying specific lung lobes that could be treated with bronchoscopic lung volume reduction in patients with chronic bronchitis.
  • A total of 31 patients were divided into two groups based on lung function: 9 with normal function and 22 with obstructive issues, and various imaging and test parameters were analyzed for correlation.
  • The results indicated a strong correlation between CT imaging parameters and lung function tests, suggesting that CT imaging could serve as a reliable screening tool for targeting non-functional lung areas in appropriate candidates.

Objective: To investigate the effect of local application of paclitaxel on airway scar formation after airway injury in rabbits.

Methods: Forty New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into four groups, negative control group (n = 10), saline control group (n = 10), group I (n = 10), group II (n = 10). All rabbits received tracheotomy.
