The article discusses the transport of a fourteen-month-old with a vascular ring congenital defect and RSV, focusing on treatment challenges like oxygen therapy causing agitation.

The article informs about a 10-month-old female Dobermann Pinscher with tachypnea and dyspnea, initially suspected of left-sided congestive heart failure (CHF). Topics include the differential diagnoses, initial investigations (echocardiography), and the final diagnosis of a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) with left-to-right shunt, leading to CHF and atrial fibrillation, and the successful treatment through interventional closure with an Amplatz Canine Duct Occluder (ACDO).

The article describes the case of a 9-month-old girl who was diagnosed with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA). The patient with a history of grunting and poor weight gain is evaluated for dehydration and respiratory distress. Topics covered include the results of the examination and imaging studies, the differential diagnosis and the symptoms presenting in infancy. It also discusses the management of ALCAPA and the outcome of the treatment.

The article presents a case study of a 13-year-old female with morbid obesity, abdominal pain, tachycardia, and shortness of breath. Examinations showed pulmonary embolus, a hypersmolar hyperglycemic state, and possible myocarditis, and diagnosis indicated tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA) with bowel inflammation-driven diarrhea and incontinence. The patient underwent surgery, was given antibiotics, and was discharged with multidisciplinary follow-up. Also noted is the importance of TOA prevention.

A recent study conducted by researchers at Mansoura University in Egypt explored the use of thoracic fluid content (TFC) as a predictive tool for transient tachypnea of newborn (TTN), a respiratory condition commonly seen in newborns. The study compared TFC levels in newborns with TTN to those with other causes of respiratory distress (RD) and a control group. The researchers found that TFC measurements within the first 6 hours of life were higher in the RD groups. Additionally, TFC at 24 hours and the TFC drop rate were identified as significant discriminators between TTN and non-TTN cases. The study suggests that TFC, along with clinical parameters and chest X-rays, can aid in the early and optimal management of different causes of RD in newborns. [Extracted from the article]

The article discusses a study which revealed an elevated risk in infants born to mothers with asthma for developing major congenital malformations and respiratory distress syndrome, in contrast to those born to mothers without asthma. Topics include outcomes among neonates deemed to be of interest, way extraction of data and assessments of biases were done, and relative risk of perinatal mortality risk.

This article from Reactions Weekly describes two cases of methaemoglobinaemia, a condition where the blood is unable to carry oxygen effectively, in women who were undergoing treatment with prilocaine as anesthesia. In the first case, a 54-year-old woman developed cyanosis and respiratory distress after receiving microwave ablation for breast cancer. In the second case, a 69-year-old woman experienced cyanosis and tachypnea after a biliary stent operation for cholangiocarcinomas. Both patients received treatment for methaemoglobinaemia and showed improvement. It is important for healthcare providers to be aware of this potential side effect when using prilocaine as anesthesia. [Extracted from the article]

According to a preprint abstract, researchers have discovered a subpopulation of neurons in the hypothalamus that play a role in respiration and cardiovascular function. By using chemo- and optogenetic tools, the researchers were able to selectively alter the activity of these neurons and their terminal endings in the periaqueductal gray. The results showed that activation of these neurons led to changes in respiration, immobility, and bradycardia. This research has not yet undergone peer review. [Extracted from the article]

The article presents a case study of a 24-year-old pregnant woman who developed life-threatening neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) during haloperidol treatment for episodes of psychomotor agitation. The woman presented with clinical signs comprising anxiety, abnormal movements in her right upper limb and psychomotor acceleration with auditory and visual hallucinations. She developed tachypoea, tachycardia and fever one day after haloperidol initiation.

Tachypnea has long been considered to identify which children with acute fever and cough might benefit from antibiotic treatment, especially in resource-limited parts of the world. Now, with declining rates of vaccine-preventable infections with Haemophilus influenzae and pneumococcus, new data suggest that approximately 90% of febrile, tachypneic, coughing (but still well enough for outpatient treatment) preschoolers do fine without antibiotics.
