In the WKY rats, a large number of vessels were dilated in response to alveolar hypercapnia, the rest of the vessels remaining unchanged, whereas both vasodilation and vasoconstriction occurred under the same conditions in the SHR rats. The difference seems to be due to biophysical and/or biochemical specifics of the SHR vascular walls and to partially depend on specific features of haemodynamics in pial vascular micromodules in both strains of rats.

Background: Primary blast lung injury is a common and severe consequence of explosion events, characterized by immediate and delayed effects such as apnea and rapid shallow breathing. The overpressure generated by blasts leads to alveolar and capillary damage, resulting in ventilation-perfusion mismatch and increased intrapulmonary shunting. This reduces the effective gas exchange area, causing hypoxemia and hypercapnia.

Western equine encephalitis is a zoonotic viral disease transmitted by the bite of an infected mosquito. Humans are terminal hosts and since they develop a very low and short lasting viremia, they are incapable of transmitting the disease. Most cases are asymptomatic, but it can present with high fever, myalgia and encephalitis or meningitis.

To improve the management level of general anesthesia during bronchoscopy in the children with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). A retrospective study was conducted in the children with DAH who had performed bronchoscopy under general anesthesia with spontaneous respiration by face mask ventilation initially from June 2021 to June 2022 in our hospital. (1) Thirty-four children who had underwent 38 bronchoscopy procedures were included.

Article Synopsis
- Acute hypercapnic respiratory failure is a serious condition primarily caused by insufficient breathing, often linked to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and muscle dysfunction.
- Noninvasive ventilation using a mask is the preferred first-line treatment to improve patient survival and outcomes, while high-flow nasal oxygen is considered a supportive option, although it has a higher failure rate compared to noninvasive ventilation.
- The review discusses optimal settings for high-flow nasal oxygen and highlights its potential benefits when used after noninvasive ventilation or during weaning from mechanical ventilation.
