Objectives: To compare PaO/FiO (PF ratio) to SpO/FiO (SF ratio) and oxygenation index (OI) to oxygenation saturation index (OSI) for predicting short term outcomes [mortality, progression to ventilation and ventilator free days (VFD)] and compare trends of S/F and OSI in predicting early mortality in children with acute hypoxemic respiratory distress.
Methods: This prospective observational study included 200 consecutive children with acute hypoxemic respiratory distress. Serial PF and SF ratios calculated at 0, 6, 24 and 48 h were compared and their trends were utilized for prediction of 28 d mortality. Same was done in ventilated patients using OI and OSI.
Results: SF ratio at admission had a 72% sensitivity and 60% specificity while PF had a sensitivity of 78% and a specificity of 75% for prediction of mortality. The area under the curve (AUC) for SF ratio was 0.82 (CI: 0.688-0.915). Serial SF ratios accurately predicted mortality. OI had sensitivity of 92% and specificity of 95% in predicting 24 and 48 h mortality. OSI had 95% sensitivity and 92% specificity in predicting mortality with AUC 1.000 (CI- 1.00-1.00) at 24 and 48 h post ventilation. Serially increasing OI and OSI trends had an inverse correlation with VFDs (p <0.01).
Conclusions: SF is a reliable surrogate for PF and a useful predictor of progression to ventilation and survival at discharge while OSI is a useful marker of worsening hypoxia and mortality in ventilated patients.

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the Oxygen Saturation Index (OSI) as a noninvasive measure for early postnatal management and outcome prediction in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Additionally, the study analyzed the correlation and predictive ability of OSI, Oxygenation Index (OI), Horovitz Index (HI), and partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO) regarding mortality and the need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
Methods: A retrospective, single-center study using data from 2013 to 2020.

Purpose: To investigate the influence of arcuate eminence's distance to temporal bone outer table (AE-OT) on surgical outcomes following the middle fossa repair of superior canal dehiscence (SCD).
Methods: We conducted a cohort study of consecutive repairs at a center between 2011 and 2022. AE-OT was measured on temporal bone CT imaging.

Background And Objectives: Structural Valve Deterioration (SVD) is the main limiting factor to the long-term durability of the bioprosthetic valves used for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI), a minimally invasive technique for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. The aim of this retrospective study is to perform patient-specific computational analyses of blood dynamics shortly after TAVI to identify hemodynamic indices that correlate with a premature onset of SVD which is detected at 5-10 years long-term follow-up exam after TAVI.
Methods: The study population comprises fourteen patients: seven cases with SVD at long-term follow-up were identified and seven cases without SVD were randomly extracted from the same cohort.

Purpose: To propose a simplified histological classification for core-needle biopsy (CNB) of thyroid nodules with four diagnostic categories (DC) and provide the risk of malignancy (ROM) and the expected incidence for each DC. There is no uniform scheme for categorizing CNB specimens, except for a Korean diagnostic classification similar to the Bethesda system for FNAC.
Methods: Data from a single institution using CNB as a routine diagnostic tool for thyroid nodules.
