Background: Both hypovolemia and hypervolemia are connected with increased morbidity and mortality in the treatment and prognosis of patients. An accurate assessment of volume state allows the optimization of organ perfusion and oxygen supply. Recently, ultrasonography has been used to detect hypovolemia in critically ill patients and perioperative patients. The objective of our study was to assess the correlation between inferior vena cava (IVC) variation obtained with ultrasound and stroke volume variation (SVV) measured by the Vigileo/FloTrac monitor, as fluid responsiveness indicators, in patients undergoing anesthesia for surgery.
Methods: Forty patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists grades I and II) scheduled for elective gastrointestinal surgery were enrolled in our study. After anesthesia induction, 6% hydroxyethyl starch solution was administered to patients as an intravenous (IV) fluid. The IVC diameters were measured with ultrasonography. SVV and stroke volume index (SVI) were obtained from the Vigileo monitor. All data were collected both before and after fluid challenge.
Results: Forty patients underwent IVC sonographic measurements and SVV calculation. After fluid challenge, mean arterial pressure, central venous pressure, SVI, and IVC diameters increased significantly, whereas SVV decreased markedly. The correlation coefficient between the increase in SVI and the baseline of IVC variation after an IV fluid was 0.710, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.85. The correlation coefficient between the increase in SVI and the baseline of SVV was 0.803 with an ROC curve of 0.93. Central venous pressure had no significant correlation with SVI.
Conclusions: Our data show that IVC variation and SVV proved to be reliable predictors of fluid responsiveness in patients undergoing anesthesia for surgery with mechanical ventilation.

Intravenous fluid is administered during high-risk surgery to optimize stroke volume (SV). To assess ongoing need for fluids, the hemodynamic response to a fluid bolus is evaluated using a fluid challenge technique. The Acumen Assisted Fluid Management (AFM) system is a decision support tool designed to ease the application of fluid challenges and thus improve fluid administration during high-risk surgery.

Globally, the incidence and death rates associated with cancer persist in rising, despite considerable advancements in cancer therapy. Although some malignancies are manageable by a mix of chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, and targeted therapy, most malignant tumors either exhibit poor responsiveness to early identification or endure post-treatment survival. The prognosis for prostate cancer (PCa) is unfavorable since it is a perilous and lethal malignancy.

Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a common acute and severe reason of death in the intensive care unit. Although the pathogenesis is complicated and multifactorial, elevated inflammation and oxidative stress are considered as fundamental mechanisms for the progression of ALI. Anemonin is a natural compound with diverse biological properties including anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects.

Tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (T-EVs) PD-L1 are an important biomarker for predicting immunotherapy response and can help us understand the mechanism of resistance to immunotherapy. However, this is due to the interference from a large proportion of nontumor-derived EVs. It is still challenging to accurately analyze T-EVs PD-L1 in complex human fluids.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an irreversible neurodegenerative disorder that poses a significant risk to human health and well-being. The high cost and invasiveness of neuroimaging and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis underscores the necessity for accessible early screening via blood samples. In this study, we developed an ultrasound-based strategy for emergent macroscopic that enhances the acoustic response enrichment of specific proteins by introducing functionalized microspheres.
