Background: The emergence of COVID-19 has amplified the importance of efficient patient transfer, leading to the idea of inter-hospital ECMO transport programs. However, there are limited studies on ECMO transfer protocols and experiences during COVID pandemic. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness our transport program and provide insights into establishing and maintaining ECMO programs.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates different strategies for venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) in patients, examining the effectiveness of various cannulation sites and the use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP).
  • Researchers categorized patients into two main groups: those receiving isolated V-A ECMO and those receiving V-A ECMO with IABP, and further divided them based on cannulation sites (e.g., central, axillo-femoral).
  • Results showed no significant differences in organ perfusion across the different cannulation sites or with IABP support, suggesting that the choice of cannulation site should be tailored to individual patient needs rather than based on a one-size-fits-all approach

Objective: This study investigated the utility of low-dose CT (ldCT) compared with MRI in diagnosing sacroiliitis in enthesitis-related arthritis (ERA) patients.

Methods: Thirty patients diagnosed with ERA were evaluated, with a median follow-up of 1.47 years.

Purpose: The success rate of the implant treatment, including aesthetics and long-term survival, relies heavily on preserving crestal peri-implant bone, as it determines the stability and long-term outcomes. This study aimed to demonstrate the stress differences in the crestal bone resulting from dental implant placement at various depths relative to the crestal bone level using finite element analysis.

Materials And Methods: Three study models were prepared for implant placement at the crestal bone level (CL), 1 mm depth (SL-1), and 2 mm depth (SL-2).

The similar transmission patterns and early symptoms of respiratory viral infections, particularly severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), influenza (H1N1), and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), pose substantial challenges in the diagnosis, therapeutic management, and handling of these infectious diseases. Multiplexed point-of-care testing for detection is urgently needed for prompt and efficient disease management. Here, we introduce an electrochemical paper-based analytical device (ePAD) platform for multiplexed and label-free detection of SARS-CoV-2, H1N1, and RSV infection using immobilized pyrrolidinyl peptide nucleic acid probes.
