Solid-state esophageal pressure sensor for the estimation of pleural pressure: a bench and first-in-human validation study.
Crit Care
January 2025
Intensive Care, Erasmus Medical Center, Dr. Molewaterplein 40, 3015 GD, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Background: Advanced respiratory monitoring through the measurement of esophageal pressure (Pes) as a surrogate of pleural pressure helps guiding mechanical ventilation in ICU patients. Pes measurement with an esophageal balloon catheter, the current clinical reference standard, needs complex calibrations and a multitude of factors influence its reliability. Solid-state pressure sensors might be able to overcome these limitations.

Parasite Epidemiol Control
February 2025
Parasites and Vector Biology Research Unit (PAVBRU), Department of Microbiology and Parasitology, University of Buea, Buea, Cameroon.
Background: Parasitic infections are known to suppress the cell mediated immunity that protects against tuberculosis. The status of parasitic infections among bacteriologically confirmed tuberculosis patients and their household contacts in Cameroon is not well established. This study aimed at reporting the status of parasitic infections in TB patients and their household contacts with keen interest in associated risk factors to disease exposure.

Infectious Diseases, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine, Tirana, ALB.
Background Different pathologies are encountered more often in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients, such as bacterial, fungal, viral infection, and neoplastic diseases. Recently, studies have shown that HIV-infected individuals have poorer oral health outcomes, worse dentition, and aggressive forms of periodontitis. This study aims to investigate the dental and periodontal status of HIV-infected patients, the correlation between CD4+ level and the CD4 percentage with dentition, and periodontal status.

January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Anam Hospital, Korea University College of Medicine, Seoul 02841, Republic of Korea.
: To compare tracheal temperature (T) with nasopharyngeal temperature (T) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). : T was measured using a thermistor in the cuff of an endotracheal tube and T was monitored using an esophageal stethoscope. Depending on the management of the CPB strategy, the operation was divided into four periods (pre-CPB, cooling, rewarming, and post-CPB).

Cleveland Clinic, Department of General Anesthesiology, Cleveland, Ohio; Cleveland Clinic, Department of Outcome Research, Cleveland, Ohio.
Background: Extreme hemodynamic changes, especially intraoperative hypotension (IOH), are common and often prolonged during Liver Transplant (LT) surgery and during initial hours of recovery. Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) software is one of the tools which can help in proactive hemodynamic management. The accuracy of the advanced hemodynamic parameters such as Cardiac Output (CO) and Systemic Vascular Resistance (SVR) obtained from HPI software and prediction performance of the HPI in LT surgery remains unknown.
