Effect of Corticosteroids on Treatment Failure Among Hospitalized Patients With Severe Community-Acquired Pneumonia and High Inflammatory Response A Randomized Clinical Trial

TL;DR: Among patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia and high initial inflammatory response, the acute use of methylprednisolone compared with placebo decreased treatment failure, and these findings would support the use of corticosteroids as adjunctive treatment in this clinical population.
Journal ArticleDOI

The first tissue-engineered airway transplantation: 5-year follow-up results

TL;DR: Clinical results provide evidence that a tissue-engineering strategy including decellularisation of a human trachea, autologous epithelial and stem-cell culture and differentiation, and cell-scaffold seeding with a bioreactor is safe and promising.
Journal ArticleDOI
