The ancient cemetery of Pommerœul, Belgium, was classified as Gallo-Roman in the 1970s', yielding 76 cremation graves and one inhumation. However, subsequent radiocarbon analyses dated the inhumation to the Late Neolithic (4-3 millennium calBC). We report osteoarchaeological analysis indicating that the inhumation was composed of bones from multiple individuals, afterwards buried as "one".

- The study aimed to investigate how fresh and stored platelet concentrates (PCs) behave during inflammation, specifically in a controlled human model of endotoxemia induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
- Researchers found that LPS increased markers related to coagulation and clotting, leading to a generally lower clotting ability in subjects compared to controls, while platelet transfusions improved clotting time and strength in those with endotoxemia.
- Despite these improvements in coagulation, there were no significant differences noted between the effects of fresh versus stored platelets on coagulation parameters like thrombin-antithrombin complex (TATc) or extracellular vesicles (EVs).
Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by alveolar edema that can progress to septal fibrosis. Mechanical ventilation can augment lung injury, termed ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), a mediator of fibrosis, is increased in ARDS patients.

Our knowledge of the genetic relatedness and structure of ancient hunter-gatherers is however limited, owing to the scarceness and poor molecular preservation of human remains from that period. Here we analyse 356 ancient hunter-gatherer genomes, including new genomic data for 116 individuals from 14 countries in western and central Eurasia, spanning between 35,000 and 5,000 years ago.
