Submental intubation offers a valuable alternative for managing airway in patients with complex maxillofacial injuries, providing unobstructed access for surgical intervention and reducing complications associated with traditional intubation methods. It enhances both surgical visibility and patient safety.

Study Design: Submental intubation is and underutilized alternative to traditional techniques of intubation. Complications associated can indeed deter surgeons and anesthesiologist from performing it. Surgeons may opt for submental intubation if they believe that its advantages outweigh the potential risks of the procedure.

Rationale: Recent studies suggest that both hypo- and hyperinflammatory acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) phenotypes characterize severe COVID-19-related pneumonia. The role of lung Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral load in contributing to these phenotypes remains unknown.

Objectives: To redefine COVID-19 ARDS phenotypes when considering quantitative SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR in the bronchoalveolar lavage of intubated patients.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition that is increasing in prevalence worldwide. Untreated OSA has a negative impact on health-related quality of life and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Despite available data suggesting that cardiovascular risk might differ according to clinical phenotypes and comorbidities, current approaches to OSA treatment usually take a "one size fits all" approach.

Introduction: Asthma is a common chronic respiratory disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness, reversible airflow limitation, and airway remodeling. Mild asthma is the most common type of asthma, but it is the most neglected. Sometimes mild asthma can lead to acute severe exacerbations or even death.
