Dr. Anitha and Dr. Santhosh presented on types and pathophysiology of respiratory failure. They discussed oxygen diffusion from alveoli to tissues and factors affecting it like diffusion distance and membrane thickness. They described four zones in the lung based on relative pressures and types of ventilation/perfusion mismatch including physiological, anatomical and pathological shunts. Equations for calculating shunt fraction were provided. Dead space and its types were also mentioned.

This was a project completed as part of a group. My contribution included the logo design and mock-ups, an exterior facade mock-up, and a complete physical mock-up of the drink menu, which is found within a weathered book of shakespeare's poems.

Walif Chbeir: Medical Imaging of PneumoThorax (PNO)–3Walif Chbeir
Dr. Walif Chbeir outlines in detail the medical imaging practice and diagnostic approach of pneumothorax (also known as PNO). This is the third in a four-part piece on PNO by Chbeir.
Capnography is a simple non-invasive monitoring technique that provides prompt and valuable information about patient’s ventilation, perfusion and metabolism. We are presenting a case of a 10 year-old boy
with a history of repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) undergoing a cardiac catheterization for recurrent left pulmonary artery (LPA) stenosis. A variable plateau capnogram waverform was detected and attributed
to ventilation-perfusion abnormalities from differential lung perfusion secondary to critical LPA stenosis. Capnogram can prove vital monitoring tool in detecting critical perfusion abnormalities.

ABSTRACT- INTRODUCTION: Hoarseness of voice is a very common symptom seen in the ENT outpatient department. Vocal cord palsy due to cardiac diseases and conditions are very less reported .Ortners syndrome or cardiovocal syndrome is one of it, which constitutes hoarseness of voice due to left recurrent laryngeal nerve involvement in cardiovascular disease.
CASE REPORT : A 40 year old lady was referred to ENT outpatient department by the physicians for hoarseness of voice. Patient had hoarseness since 10months; there was no history of smoking, alcohol abuse, voice abuse or upper respiratory tract infection. On complete ENT examination including the indirect laryngoscopy left vocal cord was found to be immobile. Other ENT examination was normal.
DISCUSSION: Hoarseness of voice due to paralysis of the left recurrent laryngeal nerve caused by a dilated left atrium in mitral stenosis was first discussed by Nobert Ortner, a Viennese physician, in1897. He explained that hoarseness was caused by compression of the left recurrent laryngeal nerve by the enlarged left atrium. Later it was described with other identifiable cardiovascular diseases associated either with left atrial enlargement including mitral regurgitation and atrial myxoma or severe pulmonary hypertension including congenital heart diseases. For this reason it is also known as cardiovocal syndrome.
CONCLUSION: For an ENT surgeon, in a case of clinical fix, when all possible causes of the vocal cord palsy are ruled out, a complete cardiovascular examination should be sought.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Normal A-a gradient is 7mmHg in the young, and 14mmHg in the
old
Tissue oxygen tension

Varies from tissue to tissue, but is usually around 10-30 mmHg

18. The lung can be divided into discrete regions according to the
interplay between alveolar pressure, arterial pressure and venous
pressure.
These regions are:
Zone 1, where alveolar pressure is higher than arterial or venous
pressure;
Zone 2, where the alveolar pressure is lower than the arterial but
higher than the venous pressure
Zone 3, where both arterial and venous pressure is higher than
alveolar
Zone 4, where the interstitial pressure is higher than alveolar and
pulmonary venous pressure (but not pulmonary arterial pressure)

23. Shunt fraction is the calculated ratio of venous admixture to total
cardiac output
The shunt equation, otherwise known as the Berggren equation,
is used to calculate the shunt fraction:
Qs/Qt = (CcO2 - CaO2) / (CcO2 - CvO2)
where
Qs/Qt = shunt fraction (shunt flow divided by total cardiac
output)
CcO2 = pulmonary end-capillary O2 content, same as alveolar
O2 content
CaO2 = arterial O2 content
CvO2 = mixed venous O2 content
CaO2 = (Hgb * 1.34 * SaO2/100) + ( 0.0031* PaO2)

Editor's Notes
The primary abnormality is located in one of three sites: 1) inadequately oxygenated alveoli (due to low FiO2 and/or alveolar collapse and/or the presence of alveoli filled with fluid, cells, debris, or blood); 2) compromised transition of oxygen from the alveoli to the blood (due to interstitial processes or pulmonary vascular disease); or 3) compromised ability of the blood to become oxygenated (due to obstructed blood flow, shunting, low Hgb concentration, or the presence of dysfunctional Hgb)
