Acute postoperative negative pressure pulmonary edema with hemoptysia as a complication of general anesthesia is seldom. Its is related to an obstacle on airway, with important negative intrathoracic depression during inspiration leading to pulmonary edema and hemoptysia. Physiopathology and treatment of such complication have been discussed.

Many conditions, such as pulmonary edema, bleeding, atelectasis or collapse, lung cancer, and shadow formation after radiotherapy or surgical changes, cause Lung Opacity. An unsupervised cross-domain Lung Opacity detection method is proposed to help surgeons quickly locate Lung Opacity without additional manual annotations. This study proposes a novel method based on adversarial learning to detect Lung Opacity on chest X-rays.

High-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) is a life-threatening altitude sickness afflicting certain individuals after rapid ascent to high altitude above 2500 m. In the setting of HAPE, an early diagnosis is critical and currently based on clinical evaluation. The aim of this study was to utilize the metabolomics to identify the altered metabolic patterns and potential biomarkers for HAPE.

-Acetyl cysteine (NAC) is an essential molecule that boosts acute lung injury (ALI) defense via its direct antioxidant capability. Nevertheless, the therapeutic use of NAC is limited due to its poor bioavailability and short half-life. In this study, NAC was grafted to the polyurethane consisting of poly(propylene fumarate), poly(thioketal), and 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (PFTU) to reduce excessive oxidative stress and inflammatory factors in ALI.

Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema after cardiac surgery is a rare but severe complication. The etiology remains poorly understood; however, the issue may arise from multiple sources. Possible causes include a significant inflammatory response or an autoimmune process.

Introduction: Cerebral ischemia leads to multiple organ dysfunctions, with the lungs among the most severely affected. Although adverse pulmonary consequences contribute significantly to reduced life expectancy after stroke, the impact of global or focal cerebral ischemia on respiratory mechanical parameters remains poorly understood.
Methods: Rats were randomly assigned to undergo surgery to induce permanent global cerebral ischemia (2VO) or focal cerebral ischemia (MCAO), or to receive a sham operation (SHAM).
