Background: The use of balanced crystalloids over normal saline for perioperative fluid management during kidney transplantation and its benefits on acid-base and electrolyte balance along with its influence on postoperative clinical outcomes remains a topic of controversy. Therefore, we conducted this review to assess the impact of balanced solutions compared to normal saline on outcomes for kidney transplant patients.

Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing balanced lower-chloride solutions to normal saline in renal transplant patients.

In this paper, we theoretically investigate the stability of spin-wave solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates of repulsive magnons, confined by an inhomogeneous external magnetic field described by a Gaussian well. For this purpose, we use the quasi-one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation to describe the behavior of the condensate. In order to solve the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, we used two different approaches: one analytical (variational method) and another numerical (split-step Crank-Nicolson method).

We present for the first time an approach about Bose-Einstein condensates made up of atoms with attractive interatomic interactions confined to the Pöschl-Teller hyperbolic potential. In this paper, we consider a Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a cigar-shaped, and it was modeled by the mean field equation known as the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. An analytical (variational method) and numerical (two-step Crank-Nicolson) approach is proposed to study the proposed model of interatomic interaction.
