Background: Lung transplantation is a viable lifesaving option for patients with diffuse pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). We present a case of diffuse pulmonary AVMs associated with juvenile polyposis and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (JP-HHT) that was successfully managed by lung transplantation.

Case Presentation: A 19-year-old woman developed severe hypoxemia due to pulmonary AVMs diagnosed at 4 years of age.

Recent studies report excellent local control (LC) and favorable toxicities of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for pulmonary metastasis (PM) from sarcoma. This study compared the LC and survival of SABR and metastasectomy for sarcoma PM. We analyzed the LC rates of 54 PMs treated with SABR between 2008 and 2022.

Background: Kirschner wires or pins were widely used for osteosynthesis in trauma surgery. Breakage of osteosynthesis material and intra-thoracic migration is a complication that has occasionally been described. We reviewed the literature to study the frequency and pathophysiology of such migrations.

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare, systemic neoplastic disease that primarily affects women of childbearing age. The disease can arise sporadically or in association with tuberous sclerosis. It is characterized by the proliferation of abnormal smooth muscle-like cells, leading to cystic lung destruction, accumulation of chylous fluid, and development of abdominal tumors.

Development of an Inhalable DNA Tetrahedron MicroRNA Sponge.

Adv Mater

November 2024

State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases, National Center for Stomatology, National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Designing aerosolized drugs faces the challenge of balancing particle size for effective lung retention and rapid penetration; larger particles stay longer but penetrate slowly, while smaller ones clear out too quickly.
  • RNA sponges can regulate gene expression but traditional cyclic RNA sponges are too complex, slowing down their cellular uptake and limiting their use.
  • This study introduces a new inhalable microRNA sponge using a compact tetrahedral nucleic acid framework, which allows for quick tissue penetration and extended retention, successfully restoring immune balance in lung inflammation models.
