Backgound: Hyperoxemia is common and associated with poor outcome during veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) support for cardiogenic shock. However, little is known about practical daily management of oxygenation. Then, we aim to describe sweep gas oxygen fraction (FO), postoxygenator oxygen partial pressure (PO), inspired oxygen fraction (FO), and right radial arterial oxygen partial pressure (PO) between day 1 and day 7 of peripheral VA ECMO support.

The scope of these studies is essential in the school context to enable pupils to develop their creativity and thus address the needs of the 21st century society. Although very rich, these studies are generally not situated in a real teaching and learning context.

It has not only been used to identify metabolic rewiring strategies in cancer but also to predict drug targets and candidate drugs for repurposing. Here, we will elaborate on the reconstruction of context-specific metabolic models of cancer using rFASTCORMICS and the subsequent prediction of drugs for repurposing using our drug prediction workflow.
