Non-marine Ostracoda (Crustacea) of the Early Cretaceous Pre-Salt sediments of Brazil: An illustrated catalogue of the type specimens of Wicher, Krmmelbein, Krmmelbein amp; Weber, and Bate.

Type material of 10 genera, one subgenus, 110 species and 28 subspecies described by Wicher (1959), Krmmelbein (1961, 1962, 1963, 1964a,b, 1965a,b), Krmmelbein Weber (1971) and Bate (1972, 1994) are re-illustrated using optical digital technology in order to provide a standard reference for future systematic work and its biostratigraphical and palaeoenvironmental application. The genera are: Brasacypris, Coriacina, Hourcqia, Ilhasina, Looneyellopsis, Pattersoncypris, Petrobrasia, Reconcavona, Salvadoriella, and Tucanocypris, and subgenus Cypridea (Sebastianites).

Use of renal near-infrared spectroscopy measurements in congenital diaphragmatic hernia patients on ECMO.

Introduction: This study tests the hypothesis that renal tissue oxygen saturation as measured by Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) would correlate with urine output in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).

Methods: Between 2012 and 2015, neonates with CDH were enrolled as part of a comprehensive study that provided renal/cerebral/abdominal NIRS monitoring for the duration of ECMO support. Continuous NIRS measurements, mean arterial pressure, and urine output were recorded.
