Using high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure to avoid intubation raises concerns about its potential to increase mortality due to delayed intubation. Identifying at-risk patients is essential. While the literature predicts risk with oxygen-based indices (ROX, SpO2/FiO2, PaO2/FiO2), we aimed to detect ventilation insufficiency.

Aims: Acute restraint stress (RS) has been reported to activate the supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus (SON). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of glutamatergic neurotransmission in the SON on autonomic [mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and tail cutaneous temperature], neuroendocrine (plasma levels of corticosterone, oxytocin, and vasopressin), and behavioral responses to RS.
Methods: Male Wistar rats with bilateral SON cannulas received microinjections of NMDA or non-NMDA receptor antagonists or vehicle before restraint stress, and the effects on cardiovascular, tail temperature, hormonal, and behavioral responses were evaluated RESULTS: Microinjection of DL-AP7 or NBQX into the SON reduced MAP increases and tail temperature decreases induced by RS.

Nasolabial folds significantly impact facial appearance and are a common aesthetic concern. This article reviews anatomic considerations and filler injection techniques for treating these folds, with a focus on the Korean population. The dermal filler used in this study is Maili hyaluronic acid filler (Sinclair Pharma), derived from a novel proprietary manufacturing technology known as OxiFree™ technology (Kylane Laboratoires , Switzerland).

Lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) is an effective surgical treatment for inguinal lymphorrhea, a complication that can occur after surgery involving vessels. LVA, however, requires a suitable vein for anastomosis near the leaking lymphatic vessel, which is sometimes difficult to secure. Here we report the successful treatment of a refractory ulcer with lymphorrhea by anastomosis of a flap vein to the lymphatic vessel concerned, along with flap closure.

Objective: Acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema (ACPE) is a significant cause of emergency department (ED) visits due to dyspnea. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is currently the recommended first-line treatment for respiratory failure secondary to ACPE. The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and NIV in improving respiratory rate (RR) and other clinical outcomes in adult patients presenting to the ED with ACPE.
