Pathogenesis and complications of chronic eye rubbing in ocular allergyPurpose of review To review the updated literature regarding eye rubbing complications and its association with ocular allergy disorders. Recent findings Atopy and ocular allergy disorders, mainly vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC), are strongly associated with rubbing-related complications, most probably via itching and watery eye sensations that trigger the habit of chronic eye rubbing. Vigorous and prolonged rubbing may lead...

Diagnosing invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in ICU patients: putting the puzzle togetherPurpose of review The approach to diagnose invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in the absence of lung biopsy in ICU patients is reviewed. This approach should be based on four pillars: mycology, medical imaging, underlying conditions, and acute disease expression. Recent findings Diagnosing invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in the absence of histopathologic evidence is a matter of probability weighting. Initiating...

Significant Reduction of Murine Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Cell Death Using the Immediate-Acting PrC-210 Reactive Oxygen Species ScavengerBackground. Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury remains a significant problem for all solid organ transplants; thus, an important unmet need in transplantation is the prevention of IR injury. PrC-210 has demonstrated superior prevention of reactive oxygen species damage in several preclinical studies as a free radical scavenger. Here, we describe its profound efficacy...

Intestinal lymphatic vessels and their role in chylomicron absorption and lipid homeostasisPurpose of review In this review, we describe novel findings related to intestinal lipid transport in lymphatic vessels. Recent findings Studies have shown that chylomicron entry to lacteals and lymph movement in intestinal lymphatic capillaries is an active process. Regulators of this intestinal chylomicron transport include among others the autonomous nervous system, transcription factors like PLAGL2, and...

Not All Oxygrams Are Mirror Image of Capnograms: A Case ReportGenerally the oxygram and the capnogram are mirror images of each other. We report a situation where a leak in the sample line produced a typical tails-up capnogram that was not accompanied by a mirror image oxygram. Air entrainment through the breach led to dilution of the gases on their way to the analyzer. The result was an oxygram resembling a series of mountain peaks.Anesthetic Management in an Adult Patient With Costello Syndrome:...

Treatment and Prognosis of High- and Low-Risk Kaeding Grade II Bone Stress InjuriesBone stress injuries (BSI) may be classified as high- or low-risk based on the anatomic location of injury and by grade based on severity. Kaeding grade II (K-GII) BSI are characterized by symptomatic marrow or periosteal edema without a fracture line. This retrospective cohort study aims to compare outcomes between high- and low-risk K-GII BSI. We hypothesize that patients with high- and low-risk K-GII BSI experience...

Molecular progression of SHH-activated medulloblastomasMedulloblastoma (MB) comprises four main molecular MB subgroups (WNT, SHH, Group 3 and Group 4) with divergent biology, outcomes and subgroup-specific differences in relapses [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. Metastatic recurrences are most common in Group 3 and 4 MB, where metastases from a single patient are genetically similar to each other, but highly divergent from the corresponding primary tumor [2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. Local recurrences in the tumor bed are...
