Objective: To observe the efficacy and adverse reactions of autologous PBSC collection when the autoPBSC procedure and MNC procedure of COBE Spectra cell separator and the MNC procedure of Spectra Optia cell separator were used.
Methods: The autologous perepheral blood hematopoietic stem cells from 41 patients were collected by using autoPBSC procedure and MNC procedure of COBE Spectra blood cell separator and MNC procedure of Spectra Optia blood cell separator. The numbers of MNC and CD34 cells collected by 3 collected procedure, the difference of hemoglobin (Hb) drop and platelet decrease, and the adverse reaction of patients were observed.
Results: When the whole blood processing and the collection time were basically same among these 3 groups, the MNC counts collected by MNC procedure of COBE Spectra and Spectra Optia were higher than that of AutoPBSC procedure of COBE Spctra, but the CD34 cell count was lower than that collected by AutoPBSC procedure (P< 0.05). The final product volume collected by MNC procedure of COBE Spectra and Spectra Optia was bigger than that collected by AutoPBSC procedure. In comprission with MNC procedure of COBE Spectra cell seperator, the CD34 count collected by MNC procedure of Spectra Optia Seperator did not show significant difference, but the CD34 cell count collected by MNC procedure of Spectra Optia was higher than that collected by MNC procedure of COBE Spectra cell separator (P<0.05). The platelet count and hemoglobin level collected by MNC procedure of Spectra Optia were lower than those before collection. The adverse reactions in the 3 procedures were similar, and the patients could tolerate them.
Conclusion: The AutoPBSC procedure of COBE Spectra and MNC procedure of Spectra Optia are better than MNC procedure of COBE Spectra for autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells collection. The loss of blood platelet and hemoglobin after collection is lowest in MNC procedure of Spectra Optia.

Heavy metal ions are major contributors to water pollution, posing significant threats to both ecological balance and human health due to their carcinogenic properties. The increasing need for heavy metal detection highlights the advantages of electrochemical methods, which offer high sensitivity and efficiency. Herein mesoporous nitrogen containing carbon (MNC) was utilized for the simultaneous determination of heavy metals using square wave voltammetry technique in the established conditions of a buffer pH of 5.

Background: Evidence from preclinical studies in small and large animal models has shown neuroprotective effects of intravenous administration of umbilical cord blood derived cells (UCBCs). This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of umbilical cord blood (UCB) collection, extraction of UCBCs, and subsequent safety of intravenous autologous administration of UCBCs in extremely preterm infants (born <28 weeks gestation).
Methods: A single-centre, open-label, single-arm, safety and feasibility clinical intervention trial was conducted at Monash Medical Centre and Monash Children's Hospital, Melbourne, Australia.

Study Question: Are there differences in psychosocial and physical wellbeing among women and male partners undergoing modified natural cycle (mNC) frozen embryo transfer (FET) in immediate compared to postponed cycles after ovarian stimulation (OS) and oocyte pick-up (OPU)?
Summary Answer: Significantly more women in the immediate group reported physical symptoms than women in the postponed group whilst fewer were emotionally affected by waiting time, although the latter difference lost statistical significance after adjustment for multiple testing.
What Is Known Already: Infertility and fertility treatment are known to cause psychosocial distress in women and couples longing for a child. The treatment may be long-term and delayed for various reasons, such as the elective postponement of FET after a fresh transfer without pregnancy or an elective freeze-all cycle, possibly further increasing the level of distress.

Purpose: To identify Missed Nursing Care (MNC) and related factors, as well as analyze the influence of nurses' decision-making and personality traits on MNC in two Portuguese hospitals dedicated to cancer care.
Methods: A cross-sectional, multicentric, descriptive-correlational study was conducted using a convenience sample of 298 nurses working in two hospitals dedicated to cancer care. Data were collected in the first semester of 2023 using a questionnaire that included sociodemographic and professional questions and the Portuguese versions of the MISSCARE Survey, the Nursing Decision-Making Instrument (NDMI-PT), and the Ten-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI-P).

Background: The term 'Missed Nursing Care' (MNC) refers to any aspect of nursing care that is not delivered, partially delivered, or delayed. MNC has significant negative consequences, including adverse patient outcomes, safety risks, and decreased job satisfaction. While extensively studied in hospitals, MNC in community healthcare settings, remains under-researched, especially in Italy.
