A patient with a paraneoplastic effusion presented with respiratory distress one hour after a 2 500 ml pleural aspiration performed at noon. A chest X-ray shows signs of unilateral pulmonary oedema. Re-expansion pulmonary oedema is a rare complication. Oxygen therapy is usually sufficient. It is advisable not to perform this procedure outside normal hours and to withdraw a maximum of 1 500 ml at a time.

Risk factors for prolonged surgical duration of tracheobronchial foreign body removal in children: a single-center retrospective study.
Front Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University, National Center for Children's Health, Beijing, China.
Object: This study aims to analyze the clinical characteristics of children with tracheobronchial foreign body and to investigate the factors influencing the surgical duration of rigid bronchoscopic foreign body removal under general anesthesia.
Methods: We retrospectively identified 421 children diagnosed with tracheobronchial foreign body undergoing rigid bronchoscopy between January 2020 and December 2021. A comprehensive analysis was conducted on patient demographics, including age, weight, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification, foreign body type and location, duration of foreign body retention, preoperative symptoms, signs, imaging findings, tracheobronchial manifestations observed during bronchoscopy, and surgical durations.
KAE ameliorates LPS-mediated acute lung injury by inhibiting PANoptosis through the intracellular DNA-cGAS-STING axis.

College of Pharmacy, Yanbian University Hospital, Yanbian University, Yanji, China.
Background: Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe condition characterized by inflammation, tissue damage, and persistent activation of the cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway, which exacerbates the production of pro-inflammatory mediators and promotes the progression of ALI. Specific inhibition of this pathway has been shown to alleviate ALI symptoms. Kaempferol-3---L-(4″--p-coumaroyl)-rhamnoside (KAE), an active compound found in the flowers of Kitagawa, exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Department of Biomedical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, An-Najah National University, Nablus, Palestine.
Background And Aim: NK cells and NK-cell-derived cytokines were shown to regulate neutrophil activation in acute lung injury (ALI). However, the extent to which ALI regulates lung tissue-resident NK (trNK) activity and their molecular phenotypic alterations are not well defined. We aimed to assess the impact of 1,25-hydroxy-vitamin-D3 [1,125(OH)D] on ALI clinical outcome in a mouse model and effects on lung trNK cell activations.

J Obstet Gynaecol Res
January 2025
Department of Perinatology, Ankara Etlik City Hospital, Ankara, Turkey.
Aims: This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of the platelet indices for the diagnosis of acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in pregnant women.
Materials And Methods: Pregnant women aged 20-45 years who presented to the emergency room with leg pain and edema and underwent bilateral lower extremity venous Doppler examination for DVT were included in the study. Platelet large cell ratio (P-LCR), platelet distribution width (PDW) and mean platelet volume (MPV) values, which provide information on current platelet activity in the hemogram parameters recorded at first presentation in the emergency department, were analyzed between the two groups.
