Published: October 2010

Macular edema is a well-known endpoint of ocular diseases, but the pathogenic impact of extra and intracellular fluid accumulation still remains uncertain. While most author favor an extracellular fluid accumulation as the main causative factor, there are indication that Muller cells swelling may also contribute to edema development.

Negative Pressure Ventilation Ex-Situ Lung Perfusion Preserves Porcine and Human Lungs for 36-Hours.

Clin Transplant

January 2025

Division of Cardiac Surgery, Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.

Introduction: Preclinically, 24-hour continuous Ex-Situ Lung Perfusion (ESLP) is the longest duration achieved in large animal models and rejected human lungs. Here, we present our 36-hour Negative Pressure Ventilation (NPV)-ESLP protocol applied to porcine and rejected human lungs.

Methods: Five sets of donor domestic pig lungs (45-55 kg) underwent 36-hour NPV-ESLP.

Continuously flowing wastewater-treatment processes can be configured for biological and physical selection to form and retain large biological aggregates (LBAs), along with suspended biomass that contains ordinary biological flocs and biomass that has detached from the LBAs. Suspended biomass and LBAs have different solids residence times (SRTs) and mass-transport resistances. Here, mathematical sub-models that describe metabolic processes, a 1-D biofilm, and spherical carriers that can migrate throughout a wastewater-treatment process were combined to simulate a full-scale demonstration train having anaerobic, anoxic, and oxic zones, as well as side-stream enhanced biological phosphorus removal.

Background: Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM) often occurs in the acute phase of sepsis and is associated with increased mortality due to cardiac dysfunction. The pathogenesis remains poorly understood, and no specific treatments are available. Although SICM is considered reversible, emerging evidence suggests potential long-term sequelae.

Emerging role of adaptive immunity in diabetes-induced cognitive impairment: from the periphery to the brain.

Diabetic cognitive impairment (DCI) is a central nervous system complication induced by peripheral metabolic dysfunction of diabetes mellitus. Cumulative studies have shown that neuro-immune crosstalk is involved in the pathological progression of DCI. However, current studies mostly focus on the interaction between innate immunity cells and neurons, while ignoring the role of adaptive immunity cells in DCI.

Background: The presence of diffuse brain damage in normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) and gray matter (NAGM) in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) remains controversial. We aimed to address this controversy by applying a multiparametric MRI approach. Additionally, the association between MRI metrics and clinical variables was explored.
