Intravenous administration of the 14C-radiolabelled insecticide DDT--1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(p-chlorophenyl)ethane--can be used for the estimation of regional blood flows in small rodents. A mathematical model is presented which enables the conversion of relative into absolute blood flows.

Introduction: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive disease associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Sotatercept is a first-in-class activin signalling inhibitor that acts to restore the balance between the growth-promoting and growth-inhibiting signalling pathways.
Methods: This post-hoc, exploratory, pooled analysis combines data from the double-blind placebo periods of the phase 2 PULSAR (NCT03496207) and phase 3 STELLAR (NCT04576988) studies.

Surgery for spinal intramedullary tumors remains a major challenge for neurosurgeons. Successful surgery requires experience, skill, and intraoperative imaging support. Fluorescence imaging technology has become a valuable support in neurosurgical procedures of not only the brain but also the spinal cord.

Despite three decades of intense research, active targeting of liposomes have not been successfully achieved in a clinical setting. A potential explanation is that the clinically used liposomes lose their targeting abilities upon circulation. Here, we investigated if DSPE-PEG anchored antibody-based targeting ligands dissociate from clinically relevant drug delivery liposomes during circulation in mice.

Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury occurs under various surgical or disease conditions, where tissue hypoxia followed by reoxygenation results in the production of oxygen radicals and inflammatory mediators. These substances can target the endothelial barrier, leading to microvascular leakage. In this study, we induced intestinal I/R injury in mice by occluding the superior mesenteric artery, followed by removing the clamp to resume blood circulation.

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.
