Article Abstract

Backround: The supraclavicular plexus block (SCB) and interscalene plexus block (ISB) have the potential to pulmonary function, the duration of the potential remains uncertain. So, we compared the effect of SCB and ISB on pulmonary function, especially the duration time.

Methods: Ninety-six patients were finally allocated to group I and group S. The ISB and the SCB procedures were performed with ultrasound guidance before anesthesia induction. An investigator recorded the diaphragm mobility and respiratory function test indicators before the block (T) and at 30 min (T), 4 h (T), 8 h (T), and 12 h (T) after the block. The diaphragmatic paralysis rate was calculated for above timepoint. The VAS, the recovery time for the sensory and motor block, and adverse reactions within 24 h of administering the block were also recorded.

Results: The recovery times of diaphragm mobility in group I were longer than those in group S. Compared with group I, group S had a significantly lower diaphragmatic paralysis rate during eupnea breathing at T and T after the block. Similarly, group S had a significantly lower diaphragmatic paralysis rate at deep breathing at T, T and T after the block. The recovery times of FEV and FVC in group I were longer than those in group S. The other results were not statistically significant.

Conclusions: Ultrasound-guided ISB resulted in a longer periods with a suppressive effect on pulmonary function than SCB.

Airway obstruction and gender affect arterial stiffness in children with cystic fibrosis.

Turk J Pediatr

September 2025

Department of Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, Faculty of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Türkiye.

Background: Vascular changes are observed in children with cystic fibrosis (cwCF), and gender-specific differences may impact arterial stiffness. We aimed to compare arterial stiffness and clinical parameters based on gender in cwCF and to determine the factors affecting arterial stiffness in cwCF.

Methods: Fifty-eight cwCF were included.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by the excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which triggers a severe inflammatory cascade and the destruction of the alveolar-capillary barrier, leading to respiratory failure and life-threatening outcomes. Considering the limitations and adverse effects associated with current therapeutic interventions, developing effective and safe strategies that target the complex pathophysiological mechanisms of ALI is crucial for improving patient outcomes. Herein, we developed an inhalable, multifunctional nanotherapeutic (MSCNVs@CAT) by encapsulating catalase (CAT) in mesenchymal-stem-cell-derived nanovesicles (MSCNVs).

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression in cancer biology, yet their spatial dynamics within tumor microenvironments (TMEs) remain underexplored due to technical limitations in current spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies. To address this gap, we present STmiR, a novel XGBoost-based framework for spatially resolved miRNA activity prediction. STmiR integrates bulk RNA-seq data (TCGA and CCLE) with spatial transcriptomics profiles to model nonlinear miRNA-mRNA interactions, achieving high predictive accuracy (Spearman's ρ > 0.

Heart failure (HF) and lung cancer (LC) often coexist, yet their shared molecular mechanisms are unclear. We analyzed transcriptome data from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database (GSE141910, GSE57338) to identify 346 HF‑related differentially expressed genes (DEGs), then combined weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) pinpointed 70 hub candidates. Further screening of these 70 hub candidates in TCGA lung cancer cohorts via LASSO, Random Forest, and multivariate Cox regression suggested CYP4B1 as the only independent prognostic marker.

Background: Disulfidptosis, a novel cellular death manner, has yet to be fully explored within the context of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This study aims to identify genes implicated in PAH that are involved in disulfidptosis.

Method: Based on data from the GEO database, this study employed co-expression analysis, Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), hub gene identification, and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) to uncover genes associated with PAH and disulfidptosis.
