PEEP or No PEEP: That Is Not the Question by Jesús Villar, Arthur S Slutsky

“…In the absence of controlled clinical trials, the use of PEEP in acute respiratory distress syndrome needs to be guided by physiological principles that balance the beneficial effects of an increase in functional residual capacity, prevention of alveolar closure, redistribution of lung water and improved ventilation of low ventilation-perfusion areas against the potential harm of alveolar rupture (barotrauma and "volutrauma") and reduction in cardiac output.…”

“Lost in translation?” Animal research in the era of precision medicine by Hamideh Frühwein, Norbert W. Paul

“…Abstract Preclinical animal research has long been a cornerstone in evaluating the efficacy, toxicity, and safety of potential drug treatments before they proceed to human clinical trials. However, given the intricate nature of human physiology and the complexities of diseases such as cancer, this paper critically examines the role of animal experimentation in translational research, both from epistemological and ethical viewpoints. …”

CHIMERIC ANTIGEN RECEPTOR T CELLS FOR THE TREATMENT OF MULTIPLE MYELOMA by Ugo Testa, Elvira Pelosi, Germana Castelli

“…Despite this progress, the efficacy of CAR-T cells in MM is limited by the responsiveness of only a part of the treated patients, the relapse of other patients, the cost of the treatment and the diminished response in patients with prior exposure to anti-BCMA targeting agents. Ongoing clinical trials are evaluating the use of CAR-T cells at an earlier stage of MM disease and the use of CAR-T cells targeting other membrane antigens expressed on malignant plasma cells. …”
