Oxygen plays a critical role in early neural development in brains, particularly before establishment of complete vasculature; however, it has seldom been investigated due to technical limitations. This study uses an in vitro human cerebral organoid model with multiomic analysis, integrating advanced microscopies and single-cell RNA sequencing, to monitor tissue oxygen tension during neural development. Results reveal a key period between weeks 4 and 6 with elevated intra-organoid oxygen tension, altered energy homeostasis, and rapid neurogenesis within the organoids. The timed oxygen tension elevation can be suppressed by hypoxia treatment or silencing of neuroglobin gene. This study provides insights into the role of oxygen in early neurogenesis from functional, genotypic, phenotypic, and proteomic aspects. These findings highlight the significance of the timed tissue oxygen tension elevation in neurogenesis and provide insights into the role of neuroglobin in neural development, with potential implications for understanding neurodegenerative diseases and therapeutic strategies.

Background: Airway management in emergency situations poses significant challenges, particularly in patients with difficult airway anatomy or comorbid conditions. Blind nasal intubation has been explored as a rescue technique when conventional methods fail. Masseter muscle rigidity (MMR), characterized by significant jaw muscle stiffness, is a recognized complication following succinylcholine administration that can complicate traditional approaches to securing an airway.

The National Association of Emergency Medical Services Physicians (NAEMSP), American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma (ACS-COT), and American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) believe that evidence-based, pragmatic, and collaborative protocols addressing the care of patients with traumatic out-of-hospital circulatory arrest (TOHCA) are needed to optimize patient outcomes and clinician safety. When the etiology of arrest is unclear, particularly without clear signs of life-threatening trauma, standard basic and advanced cardiac life support (BCLS/ACLS) treatments for medical cardiac arrest is appropriate. Traumatic circulatory arrest may result from massive hemorrhage, airway obstruction, obstructive shock, respiratory disturbances, cardiogenic causes or massive head trauma.

Background: Thoracic injuries are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in military trauma. Tension pneumothorax (TPX) is a critical diagnosis that can lead to rapid hemodynamic and respiratory collapse if untreated. While timely intervention is essential, prehospital TPX diagnosis is challenging and may lead to unnecessary interventions.

Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) fate is shaped by distinct microenvironments termed niches within the bone marrow. Quiescence, expansion, and differentiation are directly and indirectly regulated by complex combinations of cell secretomes, cell-cell interactions, mechanical signals, and metabolic factors including oxygen tension. The perivascular environment in the bone marrow has been implicated in guiding HSC fate.
