    • Application of non-invasive ICP waveform analysis in acute brain injury: Intracranial Compliance Scale
    Authors: Gustavo, Frigieri; Chiara, Robba; Fábio Santana, Machado;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    Various non-invasive monitoring techniques have been developed in recent years seeking to minimize the burden that repeated imaging and invasive procedures may inflict on the journey of patients with acute brain injuries (ABI). Furthermore, the combination of these methods may theoretically enhance their predictive value for functional outcomes, as well as the detection of alterations in intracranial compliance (ICC) and intracranial hypertension [1].
    • Bleeding after endobronchial biopsy: sometimes frightening, often safe, always careful
    Authors: Saibin, Wang; Qian, Ye;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    However, it should be noted that endobronchial biopsy (EBB), which is the biopsy method used in our study [2], is different from TBLB. TBLB is usually used to collect samples of peripheral lung lesions, diffuse lesions, or infiltrative lesions around the lung, meaning that the lesions commonly receive blood supply from both bronchial and pulmonary artery. In addition, TBLB is generally performed with or without X-ray guidance, and it is usually difficult to see the lesions under the direct view of the bronchoscope. Nevertheless, in our study, lung cancer samples were collected using EBB. On the one hand, the main blood supplies to lung cancer come from the bronchial arteries [3, 4], thus, the pulmonary artery pressure has anatomically little influence with EBB-induced bleeding.
    • Diagnosis and Management of Posterior Cortical Atrophy
    Authors: Keir X. X. Yong, Yong; Jonathan, Graff-Radford; Samrah, Ahmed;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    The study aims to provide a summary of recent developments for diagnosing and managing posterior cortical atrophy (PCA). We present current efforts to improve PCA characterisation and recommendations regarding use of clinical, neuropsychological and biomarker methods in PCA diagnosis and management and highlight current knowledge gaps.
    • Pulsatile lavage systems and their potential to penetrate soft tissue
    Authors: Kevin, Knappe; Andre, Lunz; Matthias, Bülhoff;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    In orthopedic and trauma surgery, pulsatile lavage systems are used to clean soft tissue. This may be necessary in septic surgeries or in case of contaminated wounds after trauma. Positive features such as reduction of bacterial contamination and removal of foreign particles are counterbalanced by negative aspects such as bacterial seeding in deeper tissue layers, damage to various tissues and even cases of air embolism.
