Early warning: End-tidal carbon dioxide is associated with central venous oxygenation under continuous cardiorespiratory monitoring in a porcine model of hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation.

Background: End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO) has previously shown promise as a predictor of shock severity and mortality in trauma. ETCO monitoring is non-invasive, real-time, and readily available in prehospital settings, but the temporal relationship of ETCO to systemic oxygen transport has not been thoroughly investigated in the context of hemorrhagic shock.

Methods: A validated porcine model of hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation was used in male Yorkshire swine (N ​= ​7).

Effects of chronic Helicobacter pylori strain PMSS1 infection on whole brain and gastric iron homeostasis in male INS-GAS mice.

Iron deficiency, the most common micronutrient deficiency in humans, is associated with long-term deficits in cognition and memory if left untreated. Infection with the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori has been linked to iron deficiency anemia (IDA). The H.

The Epidemiology of Invasive, Multipleantibiotic-resistant Infection in a Breeding Colony of Immunocompromised NSG Mice.

() is a gram-negative opportunistic pathogen that causes severe pneumonia, pyelonephritis, and sepsis in immunocompromised hosts. During a 4-mo interval, several NOD./SzJ (NSG) breeders and pups in our facilities were diagnosed with infections.
