AI Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the fatty-acid composition and free cholesterol levels in serum and red cells from patients with myocardial infarction and specific complications.
- Significant changes in fatty-acid composition were noted in patients with pulmonary edema and pneumonia, while changes in cell lipid complexes were observed in cardiogenic shock and ventricular fibrillation.
- Arterial blood lipids showed a more balanced fatty-acid composition compared to venous blood in cases of pulmonary edema, cardiogenic shock, and ventricular fibrillation, but the opposite was true in pneumonia patients.
Article Abstract
Lipid fatty-acid composition was determined as was the level of free cholesterol in serum and red cells of venous and arterial blood in patients with myocardial infarction presenting with certain complications. The most significant changes in fatty-acid composition of blood serum lipids were in pulmonary edema and pneumonia, with those in the cell lipid complex being recordable in cardiogenic shock and ventricular fibrillation. Fatty-acid composition of the arterial blood lipids is more balanced compared to the venous blood in pulmonary edema, cardiogenic shock, ventricular fibrillation; the opposite tendency is observed during the development of pneumonia.

Respiratory influence on cerebral blood flow and blood volume - A 4D flow MRI study.
J Cereb Blood Flow Metab
January 2025
Department of Applied Physics and Electronics, Umeå University, Umeå, Sweden.
Variations in cerebral blood flow and blood volume interact with intracranial pressure and cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, all of which play a crucial role in brain homeostasis. A key physiological modulator is respiration, but its impact on cerebral blood flow and volume has not been thoroughly investigated. Here we used 4D flow MRI in a population-based sample of 65 participants (mean age = 75 ± 1) to quantify these effects.

If citrate that reaches the patient exceeds the metabolic capacity, metabolic alkalosis will follow. Bicarbonate from the treatment fluids will also reach the patient and add to the bicarbonate load.

In this work, we propose a non-contact video-based approach that estimates an individual's blood pressure. The estimation of blood pressure is critical for monitoring hypertension and cardiovascular diseases such as coronary artery disease or stroke. Estimation of blood pressure is typically achieved using contact-based devices which apply pressure on the arm through a cuff.

North Bristol NHS Trust - Geriatric Medicine, Southmead Hospital, Southmead Road, Bristol BS10 5NB, UK.
Chronic subdural haematoma (cSDH) is a common subtype of traumatic brain injury, typically affecting older people living with frailty and multimorbidity. Until now, no published guideline has existed internationally to guide management, perhaps explaining why the care of the older cSDH patient varies between neurosurgical centres. The Improving Care in Elderly Neurosurgery Initiative guideline is the first guideline dedicated to the care of patients with cSDH across the entire patient pathway, from initial presentation through to rehabilitation and discharge after surgery.
