Simulating polymer separation in flow-through channels of monolithic columns, separation of a mixture of polystyrene standards was investigated using open tubular capillary column of 2 μm inner diameter. High column efficiency was observed for polymers of molar mass ranged from few tens to few hundred kDas. Column efficiency significantly decreased for polymers with molar mass larger than 500 kDa nevertheless preserving value of few tens of thousands theoretical plates. Calibration curve observed for open capillary column is rather steep and can be well described by simple equation without quadratic term. In spite of low selectivity, capillary columns were able in separating wide range of polystyrene standards due to column high efficiency and in such a way supported an idea of hydrodynamic mechanism of polymer separation in flow-through channel of monolithic packings.

Hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis is a known complication following ileal conduit urinary diversion, often arising from urinary reabsorption in the ileum, which leads to chloride retention and bicarbonate loss and, though often asymptomatic, can produce clinically significant symptoms, particularly in patients with underlying renal impairment. A 75-year-old woman with a history of bladder cancer underwent cystectomy with ileal conduit diversion and presented on postoperative day 47 with anorexia, hypotension, and weight loss; laboratory findings revealed hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis with elevated serum chloride. The patient's acidosis gradually improved with sodium bicarbonate and Ringer's solution, stabilizing her blood pressure, creatinine, and acid-base balance, and she was discharged with outpatient follow-up.

The presence of tubular casts within the kidney serves as an important feature when assessing the degree of renal injury. Quantification of renal tubular casts has been historically difficult due varying cast morphologies, protein composition, and stain uptake properties, even within the same kidney. Color thresholding remains one of the most common methods of quantification in the laboratory when assessing the percentage of renal casting; however, this method is unable to account for tubule casts stained a variety of colors.

Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (AMNs) are rare tumors that often present with non-specific symptoms, posing diagnostic challenges. This report aims to emphasize the importance of considering AMNs in the differential diagnosis of atypical pelvic symptoms, especially when initial evaluations suggest gynecological issues. A 56-year-old female with a past medical history of hyperlipidemia and a total vaginal hysterectomy performed over 20 years prior for abnormal uterine bleeding due to fibroids presented to her gynecologist with a three-week history of vaginal discharge and pelvic pain.
