Albumin and Platelet Loss during the Application of CytoSorb® in Critically Ill Patients: A post hoc Analysis of the Cyto-SOLVE Trial.

Introduction: Adsorption devices like CytoSorb® (CS) are increasingly used in critically ill patients. However, potential adverse effects have not been sufficiently investigated. The aim of this post hoc analysis of the monocentric prospective Cyto-SOLVE study was to examine albumin concentration and platelet count during the application of CS in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with different indications for CS therapy.

Exposure to simulated nature promotes positive body image irrespective of the presentation modality: A comparison of images, 2-dimensional film, and 360° immersive film.

Previous studies have shown that exposure to simulated natural environments can elevate state body appreciation, but stimulus sets have been limited to the use of images and 2-dimensional (2D) film. To extend this work, we examined the relative impact of images, 2D film, and a 360° immersive film on immediate, state body appreciation. A total of 136 German-speaking adults from Austria (71.

Convergent functional effects of antidepressants in major depressive disorder: a neuroimaging meta-analysis.

Background: Neuroimaging studies have provided valuable insights into the macroscale impacts of antidepressants on brain functions in patients with major depressive disorder. However, the findings of individual studies are inconsistent. Here, we aimed to provide a quantitative synthesis of the literature to identify convergence of the reported findings at both regional and network levels and to examine their associations with neurotransmitter systems.

Overcoming the Strong Sample Solvent Effect for Sustainability Measurement Challenges in Liquid Chromatography. Example for Bisphenol-A.

This paper describes an approach to achieve low parts per billion (ppb) concentration level detection using a reversed-phase ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatographic ultraviolet absorbance detection method with large-volume feed injection (FI) for analytes in dichloromethane (DCM). FI is a novel technology that allows sample injection at a defined speed into the LC mobile phase. We demonstrate this approach for a mixture of bisphenol A and its diglycidyl ether derivatives in DCM.
