The use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in asthma has been a point of debate over the past several years. Various studies, including those on animals and humans have attempted to understand the role and pathophysiology of CPAP in patients with either well controlled or poorly controlled asthma. The aim of this manuscript is to review the currently available literature on the physiologic and clinical effects of CPAP in animal models of asthma and on humans with stable asthma.

Purpose: This study evaluated the impact of phacoemulsification cataract surgery (PE) on anatomical and functional parameters, as well as the regimen and frequency of anti-VEGF injections in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) over a long-term period (up to 3 years).
Material And Methods: The study included 117 patients (117 eyes) diagnosed with nAMD and cataract, graded by LOCS: LOCS I (=56; 47.9%), LOCS II (=57; 48.
Prognostic value of lymph node metrics in lung squamous cell carcinoma: an analysis of the SEER database.

Introduction: Although the Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) staging system is widely used for staging lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), the TNM system primarily emphasizes tumor size and metastasis, without adequately considering lymph node involvement. Consequently, incorporating lymph node metastasis as an additional prognostic factor is essential for predicting outcomes in LSCC patients.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients diagnosed with LSCC between 2004 and 2018 and was based on data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database of the National Cancer Institute.

In the field of healthcare, ensuring patient safety is a critical priority that has garnered global recognition as a pressing public health concern. Despite notable progress in medical treatments and diagnostic technologies, patients continue to be at risk of adverse events and harm during the perioperative period. Anesthetists hold a pivotal position in this phase of patient care and have the potential to greatly impact safety and outcomes.

Chronic sedentary behavior can have a negative impact on the executive function (EF) of young people. While physical activity (PA) has been shown to improve this phenomenon, the effects of different types of PA on EF vary. In this study, we compared the effects of moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) (60-70% HRmax, 30 min), body weight training (BWT) (2 sets tabata, 20 min), and mind-body exercise (MBE) (2 sets Yang style shadowboxing, 20 min) on EF in 59 sedentary youth (n = 59, age = 20.

A well-designed scheduling plan that meets the practical constraints of the workshop is crucial for enhancing production efficiency in ship plane block assembly. Unlike traditional flow line scheduling problems, the scheduling optimization problem for ship plane block flow line involves dual resource constraints, including work teams and spare parts supply limitations. This can be seen as a Dual Resource Constrained Blocked Flow Shop Scheduling Problem (DRCBFSP).
