Sigma 1 receptor (S1R) is a multifunctional, ligand-activated protein located in the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It mediates a variety of neurological disorders, including epilepsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease. The wide neuroprotective effects of S1R agonists are achieved by a variety of pro-survival and antiapoptotic S1R-mediated signaling functions.

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is characterized by thrombotic microangiopathy resulting from decreased activation of the von Willebrand factor-cleaving protease (ADAMTS13). TTP can cause organ damage and is often fatal if the appropriate treatment is not started immediately. Although primary immune TTP is the most common form of TTP, secondary immune etiologies, including complications from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), have also been reported.

Introduction: To evaluate the short- and long-term clinical and financial outcomes of apheresis in COVID-19 survivors after hospital discharge.
Methods: Intensive care unit-discharged patients were followed for 6 months. Vital signs, laboratory markers, quality of life, and direct medical costs were analyzed to calculate incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER) and to plot cost-effectiveness planes and acceptability curves.

Objectives: This study aimed to measure the psychometrics qualities of an extended model of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) applied to plasma donation, and its relevance in the evaluation of interventions aiming at converting whole-blood donors (WBD) to plasma donation.
Methods: Two studies were conducted. The first (N= 433) compared the efficacy of two communication strategies (standard strategy centered on motivations to donate vs.
