Demystifying the role of MMP9 and TIMP-1 as markers of lung imaging and functional abnormality of COVID-19.
J Infect Dev Ctries
December 2024
Department of Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya, Indonesia.
Introduction: This study aimed to analyze the levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 as biomarkers for identifying lung anatomical and functional abnormalities in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Methodology: Adult COVID-19 patients hospitalized between October and December 2021 were included in the study. MMP-9 and TIMP-1 levels were measured from the blood.
Massive endobronchial hemorrhage leading to Cardiac arrest during EBUS-TBNA: a case of successful resuscitation.
BMC Pulm Med
January 2025
Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, School of Medicine, Zhongshan Hospital of Xiamen University, Xiamen University, Xiamen, Fujian, China.
Introduction: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is commonly used for diagnosing mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Despite a low complication rate, severe hemorrhage can occur which is reported in this literature, particularly in hypervascular conditions like Castleman disease.
Methods: A 54-year-old male with idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease underwent EBUS-TBNA for mediastinal lymph node sampling.
Association of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Mortality following Thoracic and Complex Endovascular Aortic Repair.
Ann Vasc Surg
January 2025
Division of Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, Keck Medical Center of University of Southern California. 1520 San Pablo Street HCT 4300, Los Angeles, California, 90033. Electronic address:
Objectives: This study assessed the association between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) severity and postoperative mortality among patients undergoing thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) and complex endovascular aortic repair (CEVAR).
Methods: A retrospective review of the Vascular Quality Initiative database identified elective TEVAR and CEVAR cases from 2013-2022 with endograft proximal landing zone ≥2 for thoracic or complex abdominal aortic disease. Symptomatic disease, ruptures, and urgent/emergent surgeries were excluded.
Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair for Penetrating Aortic Trauma.
Ann Vasc Surg
January 2025
Division of Vascular Surgery, University of Maryland, Baltimore, Maryland.
Background: Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) reduced mortality for blunt aortic injury (BAI) from 30-50% to < 10%; however, penetrating traumatic aortic injury (PAI) remains highly lethal (>40% mortality). This study's goal is to determine outcomes of TEVAR for PAI.
Methods: Patients undergoing TEVAR for traumatic aortic injuries were identified from the Vascular Quality Initiative database from 2011-2022.
Additional value of fetal magnetic resonance imaging for prenatal diagnosis: A retrospective study.

January 2025
Obstetrics and Fetal Medicine Unit, CHRU of Nancy, Nancy, France; Department of Fetopathology and Placental Pathology, CHRU of Nancy, Nancy, France; Inserm, Diagnostic and Interventional Adaptive Imaging, University of Lorraine, Nancy, France. Electronic address:
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the utility of fetal MRI in prenatal diagnosis.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted, including all pregnant women who underwent fetal MRI at a single French university center from 2018 to 2022. Fetal MRI findings were deemed "concordant" if they matched the ultrasound diagnosis.
