Article Abstract
Secondary chest wall deformities are usually more complex and difficult to correct than primary deformities, especially the secondary chest wall deformity after cardiovascular surgery. This occurs because the severe adhesions in the mediastinum, the risk of bleeding, and the complexity of the deformity increase the difficulty of correcting the deformity. However, by combining the modified Wang procedure and Wenlin procedure, we can overcome these shortcomings.

Phase 2C clinical trial of novel short-course regimens for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis: TBTC study 38/CRUSH-TB design.
Contemp Clin Trials
September 2025
Weill Cornell Medicine Center for Global Health, New York, NY, USA.
Introduction: Preclinical and clinical study data show that combining bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M), and pyrazinamide (Z), known as BMZ, has potent antimicrobial activity that might shorten treatment duration for drug-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis.
Methods/design: We describe the design of Tuberculosis Trials Consortium (TBTC) Study 38/CRUSH-TB (NCT05766267), an open-label multicenter international randomized controlled phase 2C trial that compares two four-month regimens, BMZ plus rifabutin (Rb) (2BMZRb/2BMRb) or BMZ plus delamanid (D or DLM) (2BMZD/2BMD), with standard 6-months isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol (HRZE). All drugs are administered seven days per week, under direct observation, at least five days per week.
A 3-month clofazimine-rifapentine-containing regimen for drug-susceptible tuberculosis versus standard of care (Clo-Fast): a randomised, open-label, phase 2c clinical trial.

Background: Based on results from preclinical and clinical studies, a five-drug combination of isoniazid, rifapentine, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, and clofazimine was identified with treatment shortening potential for drug-susceptible tuberculosis; the Clo-Fast trial aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of this regimen. We compared 3 months of isoniazid, rifapentine, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, and clofazimine, administered with a clofazimine loading dose, to the standard 6 month regimen of isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol in drug-susceptible tuberculosis.
Methods: Clo-Fast was a phase 2c open-label trial recruiting participants at six sites in five countries.

IntroductionWe report the successful use of erector spinae (ESP) plane block in the management of a patient with severe respiratory failure secondary to chest trauma requiring invasive ventilation and Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO).Case reportA 64-year-old man with flail chest and severe respiratory failure required V-V ECMO. An ESP plane block on day 3 enabled extubation, mobilisation, and secretion clearance, leading to ECMO weaning after six days and discharge 18 days post-injury.
