Aim: The effect of ventilator modes on regional tissue oxygenation in premature neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) has yet to be delineated. Previous studies have looked at global oxygen delivery and have not assessed the effects on regional tissue oxygenation. Our aim in this study was to assess such tissue oxygenation in premature babies with RDS in relation to differing modes of ventilation using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).
Methods: In 24 stable preterm infants with RDS, undergoing elective wean in ventilator mode, cerebral and muscle tissue oxygenation were assessed using NIRS. Infants were weaned from high-frequency oscillator or jet ventilator to conventional invasive ventilation (CV) or extubated from CV to non-invasive mechanical ventilation. Data at 30 minutes prior and at one hour after change in ventilator mode were compared (paired t test).
Results: In babies changed from high-frequency oscillation to CV, jet to CV and CV to non-invasive ventilation, the differences in cerebral NIRS (mean ± SD) were 1.7 ± 9.9%, 2.3 ± 5.7% and 2.1 ± 8.4%, respectively. The concomitant changes in muscle NIRS were -2.9 ± 8.5%, 8.1 ± 9.7% and 3.6 ± 22.4%, respectively. No changes were statistically significant.
Conclusion: Our data suggest that there is no alteration in regional tissue oxygenation related to ventilator mode in stable preterm infants with improving RDS.

In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in the incidence of thyroid carcinoma (TC). Our study focuses on the regulatory effect of circular RNAs on metabolism of TC, aiming to provide new insights into the mechanisms of progression and a potential therapeutic target for TC. In this study, we identified high expression levels of circPSD3 in TC tissues through RNA sequencing.

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) carries a substantial risk of recurrence and metastasis, posing significant threats to patients' health and quality of life. Centrosomal protein 55 (CEP55) has been demonstrated to exhibit elevated expression levels in TNBC. However, its molecular regulatory mechanism in TNBC remains unclear.

Purpose: This study explored the acute physiological effects of different eccentric tempos, explosive speed (EXP), volitional speed, and 4-second tempo during 5 sets of velocity-based squat training.
Methods: Twelve healthy males performed parallel squats under 3 eccentric conditions using a randomized crossover design. Each session included 5 sets at a relative load, initiated with a concentric mean velocity of 0.

Cardiolipins (CLs) are primarily expressed in the inner mitochondrial membrane where they play essential roles in membrane architecture and mitochondrial functions. CLs have a unique structure characterized by four acyl chains with different stoichiometries such as chain length and degree of saturation. CL composition changes with disease and age, but it is largely unknown how dynamic changes affect mitochondrial function.
