Significance of Hemorheological Tests During Mycoplasma Pulmonis Infection in Laboratory Rats.

is a chronic infection that can appear in laboratory animal facilities. Deviations in hemorheological parameters during many pathological processes were detected, but it is unknown to what extent infection causes changes in micro-rheological parameters. We performed our study on 25 symptomatic and asymptomatic Wistar rats, randomly selected from the entire population and presumably infected with .

Heparin-like effect of a dual antiplatelet and anticoagulant (APAC) agent on red blood cell deformability and aggregation in an experimental model.

Treatments with different antithrombotic agents can affect micro-rheological variables, such as red blood cell (RBC) deformability and aggregation. Since the effect of dual antiplatelet and anticoagulant (APAC) treatment on micro-rheology is unknown, we aimed to investigate the effect of different intravenous doses of APAC on hematological and micro-rheological variables in a porcine model. Two groups were formed (APAC group, Control group), and blood was collected from the animals at preset intervals.

Interpretation of LDH Values after Kidney Transplantation.

Kidney transplantation is the gold-standard therapy for end-stage renal disease. However, in the early postoperative period following allograft kidney transplantation, insufficient graft function presents a diagnostic challenge to clinicians. Ischemic damage to the graft and/or an early autoimmune rejection may cause a decrease in function.

Minor micro-rheological alterations in the presence of an artificial saphenous arteriovenous shunt, as an arteriovenous malformation model in the rat.

Background: Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are vascular anomalies characterized by abnormal shunting between arteries and veins. The progression of the AVMs and their hemodynamic and rheological relations are poorly studied, and there is a lack of a feasible experimental model.

Objective: To establish a model that cause only minimal micro-rheological alterations, compared to other AV models.

Impact Assessment of Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) and Hemostatic Sponge on Vascular Anastomosis Regeneration in Rats.

The proper regeneration of vessel anastomoses in microvascular surgery is crucial for surgical safety. Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) can aid healing by decreasing inflammation, apoptosis and oxidative stress. In addition to hematological and hemorheological tests, we examined the biomechanical and histological features of vascular anastomoses with or without PACAP addition and/or using a hemostatic sponge (HS).

The prognosis of pancreatic cancer is one of the worst of all cancers. Though the routine use of modern targeted and immunotherapy is still pending, the recently applied new chemotherapy combinations resulted in obvious improvement in the clinical management of pancreatic cancer. Adjuvant treatment followed by radical operation can increase the survival of the patients, moreover, neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced tumors is associated with higher resectability rate.

Molecular evidence of the absence of Metagonimus yokogawai (Katsurada, 1912) in Europe: report of Metagonimus sp. in cyprinoid fish from the River Danube in Hungary.

Trematodes of the genus Metagonimus Katsurada, 1912 (Digenea: Heterophyidae) are zoonotic parasites that cause infections in humans, with most cases reported in Southeast Asia. Larvae from the second intermediate host, called metacercariae, of one of human-infecting species, M. yokogawai (Katsurada, 1912), have been reported from cyprinoid fish in Europe.

[Neurosurgical management for metastatic brain tumors in renal cell carcinoma].

The therapeutic approach to brain metastases has changed significantly in the last 30 years. The development of surgical technique, the use of new MRI techniques, preoperative surgical planning and the administration of intraoperative navigation reduced the risks of surgery and improved the results. In the case of aggressive renal cell carcinomas, we detect brain metastases relatively often, which are difficult to treat, but the improved surgical and radiosurgery techniques can also be used with success.
