Objectives: This study aimed to develop a prediction model for the detection of early sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI), which is defined as AKI diagnosed within 48 hours of a sepsis diagnosis.
Design: A retrospective study design was employed. It is not linked to a clinical trial.

Background: Multiple intraoperative hemodynamic parameters are associated with an increased risk of early allograft dysfunction (EAD) following living donor liver transplantation (LDLT); however, there is significant center-to-center variability in terms of which parameters are used. We sought to determine which intraoperative hemodynamic parameters are most predictive of EAD following LDLT.
Methods: This is a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines (PROSPERO ID: CRD42023409711).

Objective: Loss of function of the phospholipid scramblase (PLS) TMEM16F results in Scott Syndrome, a hereditary bleeding disorder generally attributed to intrinsic platelet dysfunction. The role of TMEM16F in endothelial cells, however, is not well understood. We sought to test the hypothesis that endothelial TMEM16F contributes to hemostasis by measuring bleeding time and venous clotting in endothelial-specific knockout (ECKO) mice.

The glycocalyx is an essential structural and functional component of endothelial cells. Extensive hemodynamic changes cause endothelial glycocalyx disruption and vascular dysfunction, leading to multiple arterial and venous disorders. Chronic venous disease (CVD) is a common disorder of the lower extremities with major health and socio-economic implications, but complex pathophysiology.

Diagnosing ILD-PH is challenging due to the limitations of imaging methods. Right heart catheterization (RHC) is the gold standard for diagnosing PH but is limited to ILD patients considered for lung transplantation.
