Elevated plasma levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are documented in patients with sepsis and positively correlate disease severity mortality. Our prior work demonstrated that PAI-1 is associated acute kidney injury (AKI) septic mice. The objective this study was to determine if causally related AKI worse outcomes using a clinically-relevant age-appropriate murine model sepsis. Sepsis induced by cecal slurry (CS)-injection wild-type (WT, C57BL/6) knockout (KO) mice at...
Tongue base suspension is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat obstructive sleep apnea. In this video, an exemplary case of 30-year-old male diagnosed with apnea who underwent tongue and uvulopalatopharyngoplasty described. The video contains step-by-step description the steps new technique using Y-knot All-Suture Anchor System monofilament polypropylene suture. authors declare no conflicts interest.
• A glycosaminoglycan-degrading enzyme, chondroitinase ABC, was introduced into the anterior chamber of three cynomolgus monkeys. Following injection, intraocular pressure decreased in experimental eyes. Depending on monkey, lowered for 5, 7, or 14 days before it returned to normal level. Repeated injections produced a similar response. Structurally, intertrabecular spaces appeared widened, and marked ballooning juxtacanalicular tissue observed. The outer trabecular beams inner wall...
A 5-year-old male patient, receiving bilateral ventilation tube insertions 8 months ago, suffered from persisting left otorrhea and hearing loss for 3 recently, accompanied by post-auricular mass 2 weeks. The examination revealed a grade IV peripheral facial palsy (House-Brackmann grading system). High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) (Fig. 1A supplementary video) demonstrated opacification of the tympanic cavity, epitympanum, mastoid antrum, air cells. Bony erosion segment nerve was...
To determine the efficacy of a tongue-retaining device (TRD) in predicting outcomes oropharyngeal surgery patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) before surgery.
Hearing loss is one of the common birth defects in humans. Defects type II transmembrane serine proteases (TMPRSS) have been reported to affect organic structures inner ears, and thus, hearing function mice, including TMPRSS1 or any at least 4 other TMPRSS members. Here, we used human transgenic (hTMPRSS1‐Tg) mice on a mouse TMPRSS1‐null background investigate rescue exogenously‐expressed development ears. The expression hTMPRSS1 was detected organ Corti stria vascularis ear. Phenotype...
