    Abstract Tension gastrothorax is a rare cause of obstructive shock induced by a distended stomach herniating into the thorax through a diaphragmatic defect. We report the process of diagnosis and emergency treatment for tension gastrothorax during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A 71-year-old woman with multiple surgical histories had nausea and vomiting for two days. She was transferred to our hospital with circulatory failure and loss of consciousness. She presented pulseless electric activity and received CPR immediately after arrival. The right atrium and right ventricle were collapsed in the echocardiography. A chest X-ray demonstrated a dilated intestine extending from the peritoneal cavity to the mediastinum. The nasogastric tube (NGT) drained 1000 mL of stomach content and alleviated the abdominal distension, and spontaneous circulation returned immediately after the drainage. Thoracoabdominal CT showed the stomach and the transverse colon had escaped from the peritoneal cavity to the mediastinum. We diagnosed the situation as tension gastrothorax due to an acquired diaphragmatic hernia. History of multiple surgery and multiple operative scars was the first step of the diagnostic process, and the chest X-ray during CPR was the key to the diagnosis. Tension gastrothorax can be misdiagnosed as other conditions. A chest X-ray should be preceded in non-trauma settings, unlike the setting of a tension pneumothorax in trauma patients. Gastrointestinal decompression with NGT placement could be attempted quickly to improve the hemodynamic condition.

    Abstract A 53-year-old man underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair for persistent false lumen perfusion and limb salvage because of type A aortic dissection, severe lower-limb ischemia, and bleeding (mediastinal hematoma, bilateral lung contusion, liver injury, and splenic injury) caused by blunt trauma. We embolized the left supreme intercostal artery to control active mediastinal hemorrhage. Acute hemorrhage and leg ischemia were well controlled; however, residual blood flow in the false lumen persisted. We performed a Zone 2 thoracic endovascular aortic repair and discharged the patient on day 67. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair is a practical option for treating traumatic type A dissection.

    Abstract The relationship between fluid management and the severity of illness, duration of treatment, and outcome of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is not fully understood. This study aimed to evaluate whether weight change during hospitalization was associated with COVID-19 severity, length of hospital stay, and route of admission. In this study, we assessed the effectiveness of fluid restriction management in patients with severe COVID-19. COVID-19 patients admitted to our hospital between July 2020 and October 2021 were analyzed. Patients were treated with standard drug therapy based on the Japanese guidelines and respiratory support according to the severity of the disease. Early enteral nutrition, defecation management, and anticoagulation therapy were also administered. Fluid restriction management was performed using furosemide and continuous renal replacement therapy as needed unless hemodynamic instability or hyperlactatemia was present. Patient background, route of admission (ambulance, A; transfer, T), weight at admission and discharge, the severity of illness (oxygen therapy, G1; mechanical ventilation, G2; extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, G3), in-hospital mortality, and length of hospital stay were analyzed. There were 116 subjects: G1 (n = 48), G2 (n = 43), and G3 (n = 25), with ages (median [IQR]) of 58 (47-70), 65 (53-71.5), 56 (51-62) years, 40 (83.3%), 31 (72.1%), and 19 (76.0%) males, respectively. Hospital stays were 4.5 (2-7), 10 (7-16), and 18 (15-26) days, and the in-hospital mortality rates were 0 (0%), 7 (16.3%), and 8 (32%), respectively. Body mass index on admission was 26 (23.1-30.2), 27.1 (22.7-31.1), and 31.5 (27.1-33.1) kg/m

    Abstract The presence of microbes in the atmosphere and their transport over long distances across the Earth's surface was recently shown. Precipitation is likely a major path by which aerial microbes fall to the ground surface, affecting its microbial ecosystems and introducing pathogenic microbes. Understanding microbial communities in precipitation is of multidisciplinary interest from the perspectives of microbial ecology and public health; however, community-wide and seasonal analyses have not been conducted. Here, we carried out 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing of 30 precipitation samples that were aseptically collected over 1 year in the Greater Tokyo Area, Japan. The precipitation microbial communities were dominated by Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria and were overall consistent with those previously reported in atmospheric aerosols and cloud water. Seasonal variations in composition were observed; specifically, Proteobacteria abundance significantly decreased from summer to winter. Notably, estimated ordinary habitats of precipitation microbes were dominated by animal-associated, soil-related, and marine-related environments, and reasonably consistent with estimated air mass backward trajectories. To our knowledge, this is the first amplicon-sequencing study investigating precipitation microbial communities involving sampling over the duration of a year.
