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.

Purpose: Cerebrovascular segmentation is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. However, accurately extracting cerebral vessels from Time-of-Flight Magnetic Resonance Angiography (TOF-MRA) remains challenging due to the topological complexity and anatomical variability.
Methods: This paper presents a novel Y-shaped segmentation network with fast Fourier convolution and Mamba, termed F-Mamba-YNet.

Objectives: To assess changes in greenhouse gas emission rates associated with the use of anaesthetic gases (desflurane, sevoflurane, and isoflurane) in Australian health care during 2002-2022, overall and by state or territory and hospital type.
Study Design: Retrospective descriptive analysis of IQVIA anaesthetic gases purchasing data.
Setting: All Australian public and private hospitals, 1 January 2002 - 31 December 2022.

Objectives: Healthcare systems contribute significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions through energy consumption and waste generation. This study aims to explore strategies to make cochlear implantation processes more environmentally sustainable and aligned with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.
Methods: We examined various approaches including the use of bio-based and biodegradable materials, sustainable energy solutions, greener anesthetic practices, effective waste separation and recycling in operating rooms, and patient-centered strategies such as reducing travel and promoting early activation and fitting of cochlear implants.

Objective: To determine whether high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNOT) induces changes in esophageal pressure, a surrogate for intrathoracic pressure, and to evaluate the associated cardiovascular and respiratory effects in healthy dogs.
Methods: A prospective, randomized study was conducted in 6 healthy Beagles. Anesthesia was induced and maintained using alfaxalone total IV anesthesia.
