Disease relevance of RP6-213H19.1

  • The Ste20 kinase MST4 plays a role in prostate cancer progression [1].
  • Oesophageal Vent-Laryngeal Mask to prevent aspiration of gastric contents [2].
  • The extent of emphysema was determined by HRCT at both full inspiration, emph.I(%) and at full expiration, emph.E(%), with a cut-off limit of -910 Hounsfield Units (HU) using the "Density Mask" method [3].
  • The Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) was used during the resuscitation process in two patients with severe tracheal stenosis [4].
  • Insertion of Laryngeal Mask Airway for a paediatric orthopaedic case with coincidental cleft palate [5].
 

High impact information on RP6-213H19.1

 

Biological context of RP6-213H19.1

  • Together, our studies suggest a potential role for MST4 in the signal transduction pathways involved in prostate cancer progression [1].
  • An alternatively spliced isoform of MST4 (MST4a) was isolated by yeast two-hybrid interaction with the catalytic domain of Raf from a human fetal brain cDNA library and also found in a variety of human fetal and adult tissues [6].
  • Using atmospheric pressure to inflate the cuff of the Portex Laryngeal Mask [7].
  • INTRODUCTION: Mask ventilation is a procedure routinely used in emergency medicine [8].
  • Although both resulted in a decrease of the visual fields, the magnitude of restrictions was far less with the MCU-2/P Chemical-Biological Mask [9].
 

Anatomical context of RP6-213H19.1

 

Associations of RP6-213H19.1 with chemical compounds

  • MST4, a member of the Sterile 20 serine/threonine kinase family, was found to be expressed in prostate carcinoma tumor samples and cell lines [1].
  • Noninvasive Ventilation versus Nonrebreather Bag-Valve Mask to Achieve Preoxygenation before Intubation of Hypoxic Patients [14].
  • BACKGROUND: Inhalational induction with sevoflurane and nitrous oxide is frequently used for Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA; Laryngeal Mask Company, Henley-on-Thames, United Kingdom) insertion in children [15].
  • A significant Group x Mask Condition interaction was found when a P target was used in combination with an M or P mask, but not when an M target was used [16].
  • Our aim was to evaluate the performance of the Cobra Perilaryngeal Airway in a cohort study and in a randomised, controlled, crossover comparison study with the Classic Laryngeal Mask Airway [17].
 

Enzymatic interactions of RP6-213H19.1

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of RP6-213H19.1

  • BACKGROUND: The intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA; Fastrach; Laryngeal Mask Company, Henley-on-Thames, UK) may provide an alternative technique to fiberoptic intubation (FIB) to facilitate the management of the anticipated difficult airway [18].
  • Laryngeal resistance before and after minor surgery: endotracheal tube versus Laryngeal Mask Airway [19].
  • The prediction probability was calculated for discrimination between the predefined case milestones Awake, Spontaneous Eye Closure, and insertion of a laryngeal mask airway during general anesthesia (Laryngeal Mask Insertion) [20].
  • The Laryngeal Mask Airway audio monitor. Obtaining breath sounds from the Laryngeal Mask Airway: a new device for patient monitoring [21].
  • The Laerdal Pocket Mask is an ineffective device for infant mannequin ventilation and should not be recommended for infant resuscitation [22].
