Chinese herbal medicine Qing-Dai-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension in a patient with ulcerative colitis: A case report and experimental investigation
We present the case of a man with ulcerative colitis who was diagnosed with idiopathic PAH. After initiating oral beraprost therapy, the patient showed significant hemodynamic improvements and an unusual course of clinical recovery. In 2016, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare issued a warning regarding the possible side effects of Qing-Dai. We learned that our patient had been taking self-purchased Qing-Dai for 2 years. Therefore, we performed an experimental study and determined that Qing-Dai may cause PAH through a mechanism involving nitric oxide synthase inhibition and pulmonary artery endothelial dysfunction.

Allergen bronchoprovocation test: an important research tool supporting precision medicine
Purpose of review Allergen bronchoprovocation test (ABT) has been used to study asthma pathophysiology and as a disease-modelling tool to assess the properties and efficacy of new asthma drugs. In view of the complexity and heterogeneity of asthma, which has driven the definition of several phenotypes and endotypes, we aim to discuss the role of ABT in the era of precision medicine and provide guidance for clinicians how to interpret and use available data to understand the implications for the benefits of asthma treatment. Recent findings In this review, we summarize background knowledge and applications of ABT...

Alcan, occupational medicine and golf
The name Alcan might be synonymous (well, perhaps to older readers!) with a popular brand of aluminium foil but there are deeper connections with occupational medicine extending into the Society of Occupational Medicine and golf.

In This Issue of Occupational Medicine
I ’m sitting at the desk in my home office on the 28th December 2020 writing this. It’s some time since I’ve written an editorial or opinion piece for Occupational Medicine so there’s a degree of trepidation I hadn’t anticipated when I agreed to write this. But on the plus side I get a sneak preview of all the papers for the forthcoming edition of the journal. Nowadays I get fewer paper journals, but Occupational Medicine is one I still get that way as I find it easier to browse, which I still like to do with the ‘yellow journal’—there’s always something of interest.

Point-of-care diagnostic lung ultrasound is highly applicable to the practice of medicine in Saudi Arabia but the current skills gap limits its use
CONCLUSIONS: Whilst POCDLUS is applicable to IM practice in Saudi Arabia, the significant skills gap preclude the provision of a POCDLUS service. As COVID-19 can cause an interstitial syndrome, our pandemic preparation response should include POCDLUS training. The current study is supported by a similar Canadian study and the international standardisation of POCDLUS training may be feasible. The findings of the current study may facilitate the development of POCDLUS training programs for internists throughout Saudi Arabia.

Telehealth and its implementation in respiratory sleep medicine
Purpose of review The COVID-19 pandemic has clearly demonstrated that the technological progress in digitization is also essential for the medical sector. In the field of sleep-disordered breathing, the novel eHealth methods already do offer smart solutions for currently insufficiently addressed problems. Recent findings In general, the potential of telemedicine tools can be focused on three basic aspects: interaction between clinicians, interaction between clinician and patient, and interaction between patient and the mobile health technology. The pandemic situation resulted in a rapid development of reimbursem...

Evolution in Critical Care Medicine: Technology, Humanity, and a Global Pandemic
The evolution of critical care medicine is often marked and even led by technological advances in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of life-threatening illness. This special issue of Clinics in Chest Medicine highlights major and recent technological advances in critical care —from bedside evaluation with ultrasound and capnography to novel diagnostic technology for common infections in the intensive care unit (ICU) to extracorporeal life support. Technological advances have changed not only bedside care but also the organization of critical care delivery—highlighted in a provocative account of the importance of...

Structural Inequities in Medicine that Contribute to Racial Inequities in Asthma Care
Semin Respir Crit Care Med 2022; 43: 752-762 DOI: 10.1055/s-0042-1756491Structural inequities in medicine have been present for centuries in the United States, but only recently are these being recognized as contributors to racial inequities in asthma care and asthma outcomes. This chapter provides a systematic review of structural factors such as racial bias in spirometry algorithms, the history of systemic racism in medicine, workforce/pipeline limitations to the presence of underrepresented minority health care providers, bias in research funding awards, and strategies to solve these problems.

Personalized medicine targeting different ARDS phenotypes: The future of pharmacotherapy for ARDS?
Expert Rev Respir Med. 2023 Feb 1. doi: 10.1080/17476348.2023.2176302. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) still represents a major challenge with high mortality rates and altered quality of life. Many well-designed studies have failed to improve ARDS outcomes. Heterogeneity of etiologies, mechanisms of lung damage, different lung mechanics, and different treatment approaches may explain these failures. At the era of personalized medicine, ARDS phenotyping is not only a field of research, but a bedside consideration when implementing therapy. ARDS has moved from being a si...
