Concentrations of the ingredients have been analysed in a nonstandard cardioplegia solution (CS) and CS from St. Thomas Hospital at the outset before CS introduction into the coronary vessels of patients under cardioplegia. It has been shown that the use of nonstandard CS was accompanied by undesirable variability in ingredient concentration, which to some extent may be accounted for by the use of incompletely unfrozen CS. The use of CS from St. Thomas Hospital could be accompanied by moderate hypermagnesiumemia, which did not lead to the onset of vascular insufficiency. It is stressed that plasma magnesium content should be controlled when this CS is used.

Organ-specific malperfusion in acute type A aortic dissection: epidemiological meta-analysis of incidence rates.
BJS Open
December 2024
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, Liverpool, UK.
Background: Acute type A aortic dissection is a life-threatening clinical emergency that necessitates immediate surgical intervention with an estimated mortality rate of approximately 1-2% per hour. When complicated by malperfusion, the perioperative mortality rate is reported to be increased by up to 39%. Malperfusion can affect many vascular beds with varying incidence and severity, resulting in coronary, cerebral, visceral, peripheral, renal or spinal malperfusion.

Background: In African populations, estimated glomerular filtration rate by cystatin C (eGFRcys) is better aligned with gold-standard GFR measurements than eGFR by creatinine (eGFRcr). Moreover, eGFRcys is unaffected by the effects of antiretroviral therapy (ART) on tubular secretion and may thus provide better estimates of GFR in people with HIV on ART.
Setting: Observational cohort study of people of African ancestry living with suppressed HIV RNA on ART in London, United Kingdom.

Unlabelled: The tonsils have been identified as a site of replication for Epstein-Barr virus, adenovirus, human papillomavirus, and other respiratory viruses. Human tonsil epithelial cells (HTECs) are a heterogeneous group of actively differentiating cells. Here, we investigated the cellular features and susceptibility of differentiated HTECs to specific influenza viruses, including expression of avian-type and mammalian-type sialic acid (SA) receptors, viral replication dynamics, and the associated cytokine secretion profiles.
