Background: Carbon dioxide gas-induced pneumoperitoneum might be the reason for the shorter postoperative survival of patients with malignant tumors. Whether CO 2 gas-induced pneumothorax has unfavorable impacts on the surgical and oncological outcomes of minimally invasive esophagectomy remains unclear.
Methods: Between 2010 and 2016, a total of 998 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus who received video-assisted surgery were registered from three large-volume medical centers. The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared after using propensity score-matched and inverse probability-weighted methods. In addition, the tumor-relapse state was evaluated, and the relapse pattern was compared.
Results: A total of 422 and 576 minimally invasive esophagectomies with intraoperative one-lung ventilation and CO 2 -induced pneumothorax were enrolled, respectively. The 5-year OS and DFS were similar between the CO 2 -induced pneumothorax (64.2% and 64.7%) and one-lung ventilation (65.3% and 62.4%) groups following propensity matching. The inverse probability weighting revealed similarly equal survival results in the two groups. The 5-year relapse rates were 35.1% and 30.6% in the one-lung ventilation and CO 2 -induced pneumothorax groups, respectively. Moreover, the relapse patterns were not significantly different between the two groups.
Conclusion: The results of this study suggested that the use of intraoperative one-lung ventilation and CO 2 -induced pneumothorax have similar oncological outcomes; therefore, the two methods are both viable options in esophagectomy.

Background: Ultra-protective ventilation is the combination of low airway pressures and tidal volume (Vt) combined with extra corporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCOR). A recent large study showed no benefit of ultra-protective ventilation compared to standard ventilation in ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) patients. However, the reduction in Vt failed to achieve the objective of less than or equal to 3 ml/kg predicted body weight (PBW).

To investigate the feasibility of non-invasively estimating the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO) using a computational Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) model fed by noninvasive volumetric capnography (VCap) parameters. In 14 lung-lavaged pigs, we continuously measured PaCO with an optical intravascular catheter and VCap on a breath-by-breath basis. Animals were mechanically ventilated with fixed settings and subjected to 0 to 22 cmHO of positive end-expiratory pressure steps.

Objectives: Pressurized IntraThoracic Aerosol Chemotherapy (PITAC) has been suggested as a new therapy for patients with malignant pleural effusion (MPE) and/or pleural metastasis (PLM). The patients have a poor prognosis with a median survival of 3 to 12 months. We present feasibility, patient safety, and cytological/histological response assessment in PITAC-treated patients with MPE and/or PLM.

Background: Despite the significant prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Southwest China, cognitive function among middle-aged and elderly individuals in this area surpasses the national average. This study aims to reveal the overall pulmonary ventilation function status of this population, and investigate whether pulmonary ventilation dysfunction is a risk factor for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in this region, as suggested by previous researches.
Methods: Data were obtained from the 2019-2021 baseline survey of a natural population cohort study conducted in Southwest China.

Background: Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) is a minimally invasive procedure used to reduce shortness of breath and improve functionality in some patients with emphysema. While BLVR is often effective for improving dyspnea by causing target lobe atelectasis, the treatment effect can sometimes be lost. This study reviews the incidence of revision bronchoscopies in patients who lost or never achieved target lobe atelectasis following BLVR.
