Automated oxygen delivery in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory failure: A pilot study
(2019)Background and Objectives. Despite its' proven benefits, oxygen therapy may be complicated with potential adverse events such as hypoxemia or hyperoxia-driven hypercapnia. Automated oxygen delivery systems may aid in ... -
A chronic alcoholic man with high fever, neck rigidity and loss of consciousness: Remember the Austrian syndrome a commonly unrecognised invasive pneumococcus triad
(2018)Austrian syndrome is a rare medical condition characterised by the triad of pneumonia, meningitis and endocarditis due to Streptococcus pneumoniae. Native aortic valve insufficiency is the most common cause of cardiac ... -
Clinical and laboratory features of children with community-acquired pneumonia are associated with distinct radiographic presentations
(2018)Chest radiographs from children with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) were categorized into three distinct presentations and each presentation was correlated to clinical and laboratory findings. Children < 59 months ... -
The Comparative Superiority of SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Response in Different Immunization Scenarios
(2022)Background: Both SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination result in the production of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. We aimed to compare the antibody titers against SARS-CoV-2 in different scenarios for antibody production. Methods: ... -
COVID-19 Mortality Differences: Patient-related Data and Intensive Care Unit Load Are Prerequisites
(2022)[No abstract available] -
Determinants of venous return in steady-state physiology and asphyxia-induced circulatory shock and arrest: an experimental study
(2022)Background: Mean circulatory filling pressure (Pmcf) provides information on stressed volume and is crucial for maintaining venous return. This study investigated the Pmcf and other determinants of venous return in dysrhythmic ... -
The Impact of Homogeneous Versus Heterogeneous Emphysema on Dynamic Hyperinflation in Patients with Severe COPD Assessed for Lung Volume Reduction
(2015)Dynamic hyperinflation (DH) is a pathophysiologic hallmark of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of emphysema distribution on DH during a maximal cardiopulmonary ... -
Lessons from pathophysiology: Use of individualized combination treatments with immune interventional agents to tackle severe respiratory failure in patients with COVID-19
(2021)Aims Infection by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) may lead to the development of severe respiratory failure. In hospitalized-patients, prompt interruption of the virus-driven inflammatory process ... -
A Middle-Aged Woman With Viral ARDS and Acute Establishment of Shock on Invasive Mechanical Ventilation
(2021)[No abstract available] -
Nasal high-flow oxygen versus noninvasive ventilation in acute exacerbation of copd: Protocol for a randomised noninferiority clinical trial
(2020)Background: Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is considered as the first-line treatment for acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) complicated by respiratory acidosis. Recent studies demonstrate a role of nasal high-flow oxygen ... -
Neuromuscular Blockade in the Pre- and COVID-19 ARDS Patients
(2022)Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) accounts for a quarter of mechanically ventilated patients, while during the pandemic, it overwhelmed the capacity of intensive care units (ICUs). Lung protective ventilation (low ... -

Prevalence, association with systemic inflammatory response syndrome and outcome of stress hyperglycaemia in sick cats
(2022)Objectives: To determine the prevalence of stress hyperglycaemia in sick cats, and to investigate the association of stress hyperglycaemia with systemic inflammatory response syndrome and outcome. Materials and Methods: ... -
Respiratory, cardiac and metabolic responses during electrical muscle stimulation in quadriceps muscle versus comparable voluntary muscle contractions
(2021)Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) and voluntary muscle contraction (VMC) are both acceptable rehabilitative modalities to preserve muscle strength loss. The study aimed to compare respiratory, metabolic, and cardiac ... -
Small airways’ function in Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome
(2021)Introduction and objectives: Most of the studies of the pathophysiology of Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) focus on the collapsibility and obstruction of the upper airways. The aim of our study was the ... -
Tuberculous disseminated lymphadenopathy in an immunocompetent non-HIV patient: A case report
(2009)Introduction. In cases of patients with disseminated lymphadenopathy, the differential diagnosis has to include both benign and malignant causes, including sarcoidosis, metastatic disease, lymphoma and, although rarely ... -
The use of cardiopulmonary exercise testing in identifying the presence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in patients with compatible symptomatology
(2019)The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) and the presence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in order to provide an innovative tool to identify ... -
