Rationale for developing tunable laser spectroscopy (TLS) technology for high resolution real-time carbon dioxide monitoring (capnography) in human breath
15-09-2021Real-time monitoring of exhaled carbon dioxide (CO2), also known as capnography, is a valuable hospital tool for assessing patient health during anesthesia and in both the emergency department and critical care units. The fundamental measurement is referred to as end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) concentration that reflects pulmonary gas exchange of CO2 representing systemic metabolism. The shape of the exhaled CO2 concentration for individual inhalation/exhalation breath cycles can offer...

Disruption of the circadian rhythms and its relationship with pediatric obesity
15-09-2021The circadian clock system is an evolutionarily conserved system by which organisms adapt their metabolic activities to environmental inputs, including nutrient availability. The disruption of this system has been pathogenically linked to the disintegration of metabolic homeostasis, leading to the development of metabolic complications, including obesity. Lifestyle factors that disrupt this system have recently been emerging and associated with the development of obesity, which is most evidenced...

Sleep in children and adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: a systematic review and meta-analysis of case-control studies
15-09-2021CONCLUSIONS: Although included studies were methodologically diverse, the summarized results of our review and meta-analysis bring evidence that children with JIA present more fragmented sleep compared to healthy peers. Thereby, the implementation of strategies to manage and improve sleep in this population are needed and might have a beneficial effect on the symptoms and functions of JIA.

Trypanosoma brucei triggers a broad immune response in the adipose tissue
15-09-2021Adipose tissue is one of the major reservoirs of Trypanosoma brucei parasites, the causative agent of sleeping sickness, a fatal disease in humans. In mice, the gonadal adipose tissue (AT) typically harbors 2-5 million parasites, while most solid organs show 10 to 100-fold fewer parasites. In this study, we tested whether the AT environment responds immunologically to the presence of the parasite. Transcriptome analysis of T. brucei infected adipose tissue revealed that most upregulated host...

Clinical Presentation and Treatment of High-Risk Sarcoidosis
15-09-2021Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disease of unknown cause with heterogenous clinical manifestations and variable course. Spontaneous remissions occur in some patients while others have progressive disease impacting survival, organ function, and quality of life. Four high-risk sarcoidosis phenotypes associated with chronic inflammation have recently been identified as high-priority areas for research. These include treatment-refractory pulmonary disease, cardiac sarcoidosis, neurosarcoidosis and...
