    Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) can make intelligent decisions in a manner akin to that of the human mind. AI has the potential to improve clinical workflow, diagnosis, and prognosis, especially in radiology. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a very diverse illness that is characterized by interstitial opacities, mostly in the dependent areas, decreased lung aeration with alveolar collapse, and inflammatory lung edema resulting in elevated lung weight. As a result, lung imaging is a crucial tool for evaluating the mechanical and morphological traits of ARDS patients. Compared to traditional chest radiography, sensitivity and specificity of lung computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound are higher. The state of the art in the application of AI is summarized in this narrative review which focuses on CT and ultrasound techniques in patients with ARDS. A total of eighteen items were retrieved. The primary goals of using AI for lung imaging were to evaluate the risk of developing ARDS, the measurement of alveolar recruitment, potential alternative diagnoses, and outcome. While the physician must still be present to guarantee a high standard of examination, AI could help the clinical team provide the best care possible.

    Abstract This study has analyzed the traffic-related change in atmospheric pollutants levels (PM2.5, PM10, CO, NO2, SO2, and O3) caused by the COVID-19 restrictive measures, based on traffic ground-based stations data in urban areas in Serbia. The possible influence of several meteorological factors (temperature, wind, pressure, and humidity), and mobility on the pollutants’ levels were also considered. The obtained results showed a positive correlation of daily NO2 concentrations with mobility and its significant reduction during restrictive measures at all selected monitoring stations. The reduction of NO2 was higher than in other countries (71.1–111.5% for measured, and 49.3–92.6% for “deweathered” data), indicating a high traffic impact on NO2 levels in Serbia. The PM, CO, and SO2 showed a weak correlation with mobility during the period with restrictive measures, which, besides traffic, indicates the significant influence of other sources of their concentration. The O3 concentrations were increased at all measuring stations and are negatively correlated to mobility. Comparison of pollutant concentrations during restriction with the equivalent period in preceding years showed reductions in NO2 and SO2 concentrations. However, compared to previous years, the concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, and CO increased in the period with restrictive measures, indicating lower sensitivity to population mobility and higher dependence on other emission sources. The findings suggest the justification for the use of traffic reduction strategies to improve air quality.

    Abstract The initial alterations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) involve the small airways. Small airway disease (SAD) is related to lung hyperinflation and air trapping. Several lung function tests may detect the presence of SAD, namely forced mid-expiratory flows, residual volume (RV), RV/total lung capacity (TLC) ratio, functional residual capacity, airway resistances obtained with body-plethysmography and oscillometry, and the single-breath nitrogen washout test. Additionally, high-resolution computed tomography can detect SAD. In addition to SAD, COPD is related to cardiovascular disease (CVD) such as heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, and ischemic heart disease. No studies have assessed the relationship between CVD, COPD, and SAD. Therefore, the main objective of the Assessing the Relationship between Cardiovascular and small Airway Disease and Acute events in COPD (ARCADIA) study is to assess the risk of CVD in COPD patients according to SAD in a real-life setting. The correlation between CVD, mortality, and acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) is also evaluated. ARCADIA is a 52-week prospective, multicentre, pilot, observational, cohort study conducted in ≥22 pulmonary centres in Italy and that enrols ≥500 COPD patients, regardless of disease severity (protocol registration: ISRCTN49392136). SAD is evaluated at baseline, after that CVD, mortality, and AECOPD are recorded at 6 and 12 months. Bayesian inference is used to quantify the risk and correlation of the investigated outcomes in COPD patients according to SAD. The ARCADIA study provides relevant findings in the daily clinical management of COPD patients.

    Abstract Because the number of air quality measurement stations governed by a public authority is limited, many methodologies have been developed in order to integrate low-cost sensors and to improve the spatial density of air quality measurements. However, at the large-scale level, the integration of a huge number of sensors brings many challenges. The volume, velocity and processing requirements regarding the management of the sensor life cycle and the operation of system services overcome the capabilities of the centralized cloud model. In this paper, we present the methodology and the architectural framework for building large-scale sensing infrastructure for air quality monitoring applicable in urban scenarios. The proposed tiered architectural solution based on the adopted fog computing model is capable of handling the processing requirements of a large-scale application, while at the same time sustaining real-time performance. Furthermore, the proposed methodology introduces the collection of methods for the management of edge-tier node operation through different phases of the node life cycle, including the methods for node commission, provision, fault detection and recovery. The related sensor-side processing is encapsulated in the form of microservices that reside on the different tiers of system architecture. The operation of system microservices and their collaboration was verified through the presented experimental case study.

    Abstract Introduction. Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) represents an immune-mediated neuroinflammatory syndrome, classified as a separate entity after the discovery of aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G (anti-AQP4-IgG). The magnetic resonance neuroimaging spectrum of NMOSD classically consists of bilateral optic neuritis and longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM), recently broadened with lesions in area postrema, diencephalon, brainstem and cerebellum, and extensive cord atrophy. Case report. The case presents an anti-AQP4 autoantibody-positive 65-year-old female patient who initially presented with underestimated LETM and developed multiple cerebral and cerebellar lytic demyelinating lesions associated with acute long segment op-tic nerve involvement two years later. Two new imaging findings were described in this case: the involvement of a complete cross-sectional area of pons and microhemorrhage in the pons and corpus callosum. Conclusion. Raising suspicion of NMOSD is of crucial importance in cases with isolated LETM in order to prevent relapses in anti-AQP4-IgG positive cases and improve patient outcomes and recovery.
