The study is a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of propofol-ketamine ("Ketofol") versus propofol monotherapy in geriatric ICU patients. Eligible participants are critically ill elderly patients with a history of cardiac disease who require endotracheal intubation and have not yet received sedation. The investigators focus on …
A study of how supplemental oxygen helps patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Hypothesis: Oxygen affects right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) primarily by relieving hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and reducing pulmonary pressure (PA) pressure, and that this process is metabolically driven.
Pneumonia is a leading cause of death and hospitalization among the elderly in Taiwan. High-quality home care is essential to recovery and reducing readmission, yet primary caregivers often lack the specific skills needed, such as airway clearance and safe feeding techniques. Traditional education, consisting of one-time verbal instructions and paper …
Lung neoplasms are characterized by a complex interaction between tumor cells and a variety of resident and infiltrating host elements, secreted factors, and extracellular matrix proteins, collectively referred to as the microenvironment. Nowadays, in the setting of lung cancer, and in particular non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the evaluation of …
Single center, prospective, diagnostic study. Patients with stage II-IIIB resectable NSCLC diagnosed by pathology were included. After receiving standard neoadjuvant therapy (chemotherapy/immunotherapy/combination therapy), FAPI-PET/CT and fluorescence imaging were performed one week before surgery. During the surgery, a near-infrared fluorescence navigation system was used to locate the tumor lesion. After surgery, …
The primary purpose of this prospective, randomized multicenter center study is to evaluate and compare the outcomes of stomach,colorectal and lung anastomoses reinforced with a bioabsorbable staple line reinforcement material compared with standard non-reinforced techniques with respect to the incidence of postoperative hemorrage rate, anastomotic leakage, if applicable.
Over the past 10 years, electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes, EC) have been commercialized as a "less harmful" alternative to traditional cigarettes.1,2 However, e-cigarettes are believed to cause pulmonary epithelial, endothelial and vascular dysfunction, and to cause murine phenotypes similar to those of human COPD. Recently, "spiked" vape juice has been linked …
Bronchial arterial infusion plus bronchial arterial chemoembolization (BAI-BACE) has been reported as non-first-line therapy to treat lung cancer in many hospitals in China. BAI, which uses chemotherapeutic drugs directly injected into the tumor and achieved a high concentration in a short time to kill the tumor. Then BACE could seal …
The study is a non-interventional evaluation of participants with extensive stage (ES) SCLC who will receive diagnostic and (where possible) post-progression tumor tissue profiling, alongside plasma ctDNA and CTC biomarker profiling during standard of care therapy in both first and second line treatment.
Prospective cohort research to study the state of oxygen metabolism, reserve capabilities of cardiovascular and respiratory systems in patients with breast cancer to create a program of prevention and rehabilitation of lung damage in the process of complex treatment of the disease. The aim of the study is to study …
