Luc Moullet et le littéral
Authors: Eugène Pierre 
Published: July 2024

À rebours du goût littéraire de ses contemporains de la Nouvelle Vague, Luc Moullet (né en 1937) déploie dans son œuvre critique et cinématographique une étonnante pratique du littéral. Cet article, à travers de multiples exemples dans ses films et textes, mais aussi ses interventions polémiques (contre Christian Metz, notamment) qui le rapprochent des sophistes de l’Antiquité, étudie comment son œuvre met en place toutes sortes de jeux sur le signifiant, donné à voir et à entendre comme un objet parmi d’autres, dépouillant les prétentions métaphysiques du langage pour viser une réalité matérielle, non sans humour.
Le dispositif de la lettre ouverte dans Letter to Jane de Jean-Luc Godard (1972)
Authors: De Vita Philippe 
Published: July 2024

Letter to Jane est une lettre ouverte : en s’adressant aussi au public, Godard et Gorin veulent témoigner d'un refus de se laisser enfermer dans un « tête à tête » avec l’instance de pouvoir que représente une star hollywoodienne. S’il y a dialogue, ce n’est pas tant avec Jane Fonda que dans la mise en correspondance entre le discours en voix off, la photo de Fonda parue dans la presse et les images de Tout va bien.
« Tupi or not guarani ». Les Notre Père des XVIe-XVIIe siècles
Authors: Boidin Capucine , Barros Cândida , Monserrat Ruth 
Published: July 2024

Nous comparons dix versions du Notre Père dans des variantes de la famille linguistique tupi-guarani telles qu’elles ont été manuscrites ou imprimées entre 1575 et 1716, pour identifier les différentes stratégies de traduction de concepts chrétiens (par équivalence ou emprunt) ainsi que la circulation des copies. Nous prenons en compte les filtres sonores et orthographiques des scribes coloniaux, les erreurs communes des typographes pour mieux comparer les versions et ce avec trois points d’attention complémentaires : ne pas prendre pour acquise l’existence d’une langue tupi unifiée, ni d’un guarani homogène, ni d’une claire distinction entre deux ensembles linguistiques tupi/guarani avant la colonisation mais plutôt montrer comment la colonisation et l’évangélisation contribuent à cette distinction.
Un spécimen qui parle de lui-même : les fonctions des collections multilingues du Notre Père au XVIe siècle
Authors: Sergeev Michail , Van Hal Toon 
Published: July 2024

Cet article explore l’intérêt des érudits de la Renaissance pour les traductions multilingues de l’oraison dominicale pendant le « long seizième siècle », en examinant les diverses approches adoptées. Durant cette période, de nombreux humanistes ont, en effet, initié des recueils de versions traduites de l’oraison dominicale à des fins diverses. Le rôle didactique est une caractéristique notable des premières publications polyglottes, visant à enseigner la lecture et l’écriture des alphabets étrangers pour familiariser les élèves à ces lettres inconnues. Dans le domaine de la chorographie, l’inclusion de l’oraison dominicale offre un aperçu des caractéristiques linguistiques des peuples décrits. Avec la publication, en 1555, du Mithridates de Conrad Gessner, l’oraison dominicale a servi d’outil pour la comparaison des langues, soulignant à la fois les différences et les affinités linguistiques. Par ailleurs, il existe également des manuscrits qui présentent une collection d’oraisons dominicales dans diverses langues et écritures, afin de mettre en évidence le potentiel esthétique de cette prière. La période s’est conclue avec la publication de la première compilation multilingue indépendante, mettant en évidence un intérêt croissant pour les différences linguistiques.
Ruptured Aortic Aneurysm in Pregnancy, Anesthetic Management of Endovascular Procedure
Authors: Chauhan Richa , Balakrishnan Ira , Mishra Keshabanand , Kumar Virendra 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
Advanced pregnancy is associated with a higher risk of complicated aortopathies owing to the physiologic changes in pregnancy. The diagnosis can be elusive due to its rare incidence. The optimal treatment strategy is chosen based on the clinical condition of the patient, gestational age, and the severity of the aortic disease. A healthy young primigravida presented with acute chest pain in the early second trimester, diagnosed as a thoracic aortic aneurysm that had ruptured causing hemothorax. She underwent emergency endovascular repair under general anesthesia. Aortic disease should always be ruled out early in acute chest pain in pregnancy. Expeditious and strategic management helps improve maternal and fetal outcomes.
Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for “Protected” Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Secondary to Refractory Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia and Cardiac Arrest
Authors: Phillips Jordan D. , Spratt John R. , Choi Calvin Y. , Scali Salvatore T. , Maybauer Marc O. 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
We present a case of cardiogenic shock secondary to refractory polymorphic ventricular tachycardia associated with coronary ischemia resulting in cardiac arrest. Following the return of spontaneous circulation, the patient was cannulated for peripheral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) in anticipation of high-risk “protected” percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Under full V-A ECMO support, inotropes and vasopressors were weaned off, and the patient underwent uneventful PCI of left circumflex and obtuse marginal lesions. After 48 hours, the patient was decannulated and could be discharged home alive 16 days after his initial cardiac arrest.

Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
Intraoperative aortic dissection is a life-threatening emergency. The prognosis of patients with aortic dissection has markedly improved in recent years due to prompt diagnosis and the institution of effective medical and surgical therapy. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is helpful in the evaluation of this life-threatening disorder.
Ischemic Heart Disease with In-Stent Re-Stenosis with Complete Heart Block and Isolated Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava – Rare Case Report with Challenges and Clinical Implications
Authors: Yedurupaka Santhi Sree , Raj B Sanjay Soloman , Prasad R Maruthi Vara 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
Isolated persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a very rare congenital thoracic venous system anomaly and is commonly an incidental finding, usually detected during central venous access, cardiac catheterization, or cardiothoracic surgeries. This is a rare case report wherein the patient is a known case of ischemic heart disease with s/p percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) with a stent to left anterior descending (LAD) artery with in-stent re-stenosis presented with complete heart block and had an unanticipated discovery of isolated PLSVC on facing difficulty during the transvenous approach of permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). In this case report, we inspect the challenges associated with and various clinical implications of isolated PLSVC.
Combined Stellate Ganglion Blockade and Epidural Thoracic Anesthesia for the Management of Ventricular Storm: A Case Report
Authors: Balão João , Sepúlveda Daniela , Borges Alexandra , Fonseca Cristiana , Rodrigues Susana Santos 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
The term “ventricular storm (VS)” is defined as the occurrence of two or more separate episodes of ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation (VT/VF) or three or more appropriate discharges of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator for VT/VF during a 24-h period. A patient in his early 40s was observed in the emergency department of our hospital and was admitted to the cardiac intensive care unit due to multiple episodes of VT. This led to the need for deep sedation with orotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. Intravenous lidocaine treatment was started; however, the patient had a recurrence of the episodes of VT. We decided to combine stellate ganglion block with epidural thoracic anesthesia. After the sympathetic block, there was no recurrence of the arrhythmic episodes. The patient was then transferred for ablation treatment. We demonstrated the efficacy of both techniques in managing a patient with multiple episodes of ventricular storm.
Venovenous ECMO for Acute Chronic Heart Failure after Bilateral Lung Transplantation

Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
Venovenous (VV) ECMO is rarely used during decompensated circulatory states. Although VA ECMO is the routine option, VV ECMO may be an option in selected patients. We present a case of pulmonary edema due to acute heart failure in a patient 4- and 12-year post-lung transplantation who received VV ECMO. Using a thoughtful cannulation strategy, VV ECMO, and aggressive ultrafiltration, the patient was successfully decannulated, extubated, and discharged from the hospital. In cardiogenic pulmonary edema, VV ECMO represents an additional, and likely under-utilized tool, especially in patients who are at high risk for ventilator-associated lung injury. Cannula location and size should be given additional consideration to potentially transition to V-AV ECMO configuration if necessary.

Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
Peri-operative management of cyanotic congenital heart disease in a patient of sickle cell disease (SCD) can be challenging. We report a case of Tetralogy of Fallot and homozygous SCD with history of multiple blood transfusions and sickle cell crises who underwent intracardiac repair. Hemoglobin S level was reduced from 75% pre-operative to 21.8% postoperative with a combination of pre-operative blood transfusion, intraoperative exchange transfusion, and normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Pre-operative optimization and safe intraoperative conduct were essential to avoid sickling crises.
Comparison of Transesophageal Echocardiography Probe as Surface Probe with Vascular Probe During Right Internal Jugular Vein Catheterization in Cardiac Surgeries
Authors: Antony Nishant R , Sundarsingh Subash , Radhakrishnan Anil , Sasidharan Swapna 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has become an essential monitor for the management of most patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery. TEE and central venous catheter placement are often used during cardiac surgeries. Here we conducted a study comparing TEE 3D probe as a surface probe with the ultrasound-guided (USG) vascular probe for guiding right internal jugular vein (IJV) catheterization.

Context:
USG vascular probe and TEE probe can help during central venous catheterization (CVC) and can confirm the location of guide wire in the neck vessels. We proposed this study, as there are only few studies comparing between TEE probe as surface probe and USG vascular probe for right IJV cannulation.

Aims:
To compare the TEE probe as a surface probe and USG vascular probe during right IJV catheterization in cardiac surgeries.

Settings and Design:
Prospective, comparative study.

Methods and Material:
One twenty-four patients of either sex posted for major elective cardiac surgery were included in this study. Patients were divided into two groups (TEE group and USG group) of 62 by assigning the study participants alternatively to each group. The goal of this study was to compare the puncture time, visualization of IJV to first successful puncture, quality of the imaging with needle tip positioning, and catheter positioning using both TEE probe and vascular probe. The primary outcome was comparison of time from visualization of the IJV to successful puncture using both TEE probe as a surface probe and vascular probe. Secondary outcome was to compare the quality of image with respect to needle tip positioning and compare quality of image with respect to catheter position using both probes.

Statistical Analysis Used:
Statistical analyses were performed by using a statistical software package SPSS, version 20.0.

Results:
The observation and results of our study clearly show the feasibility of TEE as surface probe for guiding central venous catheter in right IJV just like the vascular linear probe. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). No statistical differences were found in the puncture time, image quality, needle tip positioning, wire positioning, and catheter positioning between the two groups. All the P values were greater than 0.05.

Conclusions:
The TEE probe can be used as an alternative method to guide IJV puncturing and catheterization when the vascular probe is not available. It is feasible especially in cardiac surgeries where the TEE monitoring machine is a must in modern anesthesia and readily available than an ultrasound machine.
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure versus Differential Lung Ventilation during One Lung Ventilation for Thoracic Surgery
Authors: Purayil Aswathy Puthan , Nair Suresh Gangadharan , Abraham Jobin , Vazhakatt Joel Devasia , Rajmohan Nisha , Shaji Anupama 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
One lung ventilation (OLV) is a technique used during lung resection surgery to facilitate optimal surgical conditions. However, this may result in severe hypoxemia due to the right-to-left shunt created in the collapsed lung. Several techniques are used to overcome hypoxemia, one of which is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to the non-dependent lung. Another technique is ventilating the non-dependent lung with a minimal volume, thus creating differential lung ventilation (DLV) or split lung ventilation (SLV). In this study, we compared the efficacy of CPAP to DLV during video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lung resection.

Materials and Methods:
In this single-center randomized controlled, cross-over study, each patient acted as his control as well as the study. Patients crossed over from SLV to CPAP (or vice versa) with an interval period during which only OLV was used (control period). The primary objective of the study was to observe the changes in oxygenation, ventilation, and the surgeons’ perception of the surgical field using CPAP or SLV to the non-ventilated lung during the period of OLV in patients undergoing thoracic surgery.

Results:
The study revealed that oxygenation was significantly better when using SLV to the non-ventilated lung during the period of OLV (P = 0.03). However, the surgeon found a significantly better surgical field when applying CPAP to the surgical field.

Conclusions:
The study showed that using SLV to the non-ventilated lung during the period of OLV was superior in terms of oxygenation, although it interfered more with the surgical field.

Abstract

RATIONALE:
The prognosis of patients with lung cancer admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) is often perceived as poor. We described the characteristics, management, and outcomes of critically ill patients with lung cancer and determined the predictors of mortality.

METHODS:
We retrospectively studied patients with lung cancer who were admitted to the ICU of a tertiary care hospital between 1999 and 2021 for the reasons other than routine postoperative care. We noted their characteristics, ICU management, and outcomes. We performed the multivariable logistic regression analysis to determine the predictors of hospital mortality.

RESULTS:
In the 23-year period, 306 patients with lung cancer were admitted to the ICU (median age = 63.0 years, 68.3% males, 45.6% with moderate/severe functional disability, most had advanced lung cancer, and median Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score = 24.0). Life support measures included invasive mechanical ventilation (47.1%), vasopressors (34.0%), and new renal replacement therapy (8.8%). Do-Not-Resuscitate orders were implemented during ICU stay in 30.1%. The hospital mortality was 43.8% with a significantly lower rate in patients admitted after 2015 (28.0%). The predictors of mortality were moderate/severe baseline disability (odds ratio [OR] 2.65, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.22, 5.78), advanced lung cancer (OR 8.36, 95% CI 1.81, 38.58), lactate level (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.12, 1.88, invasive mechanical ventilation (OR 10.92, 95% CI 4.98, 23.95), and admission period after 2015 (OR 0.37, 95% CI 0.16, 0.85).

CONCLUSIONS:
The mortality rates in patients with lung cancer admitted to the ICU during a 23-year period decreased after 2015. Functional disability, advanced lung cancer stage, vasopressor use, and invasive mechanical ventilation predicted mortality.

Authors: Alkadrou Abdulkarim M. , Saleh Waleed N. , Alzamel Huda M. , Ahmed Abdelrahman A. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Middle lobe torsion (MLT) is an unusual complication in lung surgery that is usually associated with upper lobe lobectomy and rarely develops postlower lobectomy. In the case of MLT, urgent surgical intervention is required to decrease the risk of mortality and morbidity, and diagnosis is challenging due to the nonspecific symptoms of MLT. In this article, we present a case of a recurring lung abscess treated by the right lower lobectomy, complicated by the right MLT and to our knowledge MLT consider rarest complication postright lower lobectomy.

Published: July 2024

Abstract
An interosseous ganglion cyst is a very rare entity, found mostly in skeletally mature patients, particularly in long bones such as the tibia and femur. However, we are the first to report here an unusual case of interosseous ganglion cyst of the upper ribs in a young female patient, which she had an unpredicted presentation of cough and hemoptysis and a large painful lump over the anterior left upper chest. The radiological and pathological workup confirmed the presence of a benign interosseous ganglion cyst arising from the left first rib, invading the second rib and the apex of the left lung. The patient has been treated successfully by surgical resection of this rib cyst. However, we could not find any reported cases in the current literature of an interosseous ganglion cyst pathology arising in the ribs with a similar presentation of cough and hemoptysis.
Morphological manifestation of tuberculous pleurisy in children under medical thoracoscope and diagnostic value
Authors: Li Qian , Tang Xiaodi , Yan Xiuli 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:
Our study analyzed the main manifestations of tuberculous pleurisy (TBP) in children under medical thoracoscopy (MT). This article aimed to explore the clinical application value of MT in the diagnosis and treatment of TBP in children.

METHODS:
In our study, we selected 23 TBP patients diagnosed in our hospital. We analyzed the clinical data and thoracoscopic morphology of these patients. At the same time, we also observed the pathological manifestations, acid-fast staining, and treatment effects of the patient’s diseased tissue under MT.

RESULTS:
The MT clinical findings of TBP patients include pleural hyperemia and edema, miliary nodules, scattered or more white nodules, simple pleural adhesion, wrapped pleural effusion, massive cellulose exudation, yellow-white caseous necrosis, pleural hyperplasia and hyperplasia, and mixed pleural necrosis. The positive rate of pleural biopsy was 73.91% and that of acid-fast staining was 34.78%. The main pathologic types of these patients were tuberculous granulomatous lesions (16 cases), caseous necrosis (5 cases), and fibrinous exudative, multinucleated giant cell and other inflammatory cell infiltration lesions (13 cases). The average time of diagnosis of the 23 patients was 8.32 days (5.0–16.0 days), and they were transferred to specialized hospitals for treatment after diagnosis. The mean time of chest drainage was 3.0–5.0 days after treatment. The average time for their body temperature to return to normal was 3.31 days (2.0–5.0 days).

CONCLUSION:
Thoracoscopic lesions of TBP in children are varied. The use of MT is not only helpful for the early diagnosis and treatment of TBP. It also protects and improves lung function. Therefore, the use of MT has high clinical value.
Risk factors analysis of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in inpatients with overlapping syndrome of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease combined with obstructive sleep apnea
Authors: Liu WenJing , Ding Fang , Guo Hong , Li JieMei , Guo Wei , Wang Jing , Cui ZhaoBo 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:
The aim of the study was to analyze the clinical data of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and obstructive sleep apnea overlap syndrome (OS) during hospitalization and to evaluate the risk factors of patients treated with Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV).

METHODS:
Demographic and clinical data of patients with confirmed OS during hospitalization were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether noninvasive ventilator was used during hospitalization, including OS treated with NIV (244 cases) and OS without NIV (239 cases). The t-test, χ
2 test, and Kaplan–Meier curve were used to compare the two groups, and multiple logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of NIV in patients with OS.

RESULTS:
Compared with the OS group without NIV, the pulmonary hypertension, lymphocyte count, and left ventricular ejection fraction% of OS patients with NIV were lower, whereas PCO2, uric acid, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide were higher, with statistical differences (P < 0.05). During hospitalization and follow-up, OS patients with NIV had a longer hospital stay (P < 0.001), and there was no significant difference in the rate of readmission within 28 days. The logistic regression analysis showed that the history of diuretic use, previous history of noninvasive ventilator use, and ischemic heart disease were independent risk factors for NIV treatment in OS patients during hospitalization.

CONCLUSION:
Patients with OS undergoing NIV during hospitalization exhibited more severe overall illness and had prolonged hospital stays compared to OS patients not receiving NIV. History of diuretic use, history of NIV use, and ischemic heart disease are independent risk factors for NIV treatment in OS patients during hospitalization.
