Oxygen desaturation in a transgender man: initial concerns and recommendations regarding the practice of chest binding: a case report
ConclusionIn the clinical narrative, a healthy patient was observed to have prolonged oxygen desaturation after induction of anesthesia. Laryngospasm was suspected clinically owing to the sudden absence of end-tidal carbon dioxide. Prolonged oxygen desaturation despite appropriate interventions suggests the contribution of additional factors.

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 8739: Dose-Dependent Proton Pump Inhibitor Exposure and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes: A Nationwide Nested Case & ndash;Control Study
Conclusions: A dose-dependent increased risk of T2DM was found among patients with UGID using higher doses of PPIs compared with those with lower doses of these drugs. Further studies are necessary to investigate the underlying pathophysiology of PPIs and T2DM. (Source: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health)
