Introduction: Shock states that occur during, for example, profound hemorrhage can cause global tissue hypoperfusion leading to organ failure. There is an unmet need for a reliable marker of tissue perfusion during hemorrhage that can be followed longitudinally. Herein, we investigated whether longitudinal POMCO2 tracks changes in hemodynamics in a swine model of coagulopathic uncontrolled junctional hemorrhage.
Materials And Methods: Female Yorkshire-crossbreed swine (n = 7, 68.1 ± 0.7 kg) were anesthetized and instrumented for continuous measurement of mean arterial pressure (MAP). Coagulopathy was induced by the exchange of 50 to 60% of blood volume with 6% Hetastarch over 30 minutes to target a hematocrit of <15%. A 4.5-mm arteriotomy was made in the right common femoral artery with 30 seconds of free bleeding. POMCO2 was continuously measured from baseline through hemodilution, hemorrhage, and a subsequent 3-h intensive care unit period. Rotational thromboelastometry and blood gases were measured.
Results: POMCO2 and MAP showed no significant changes during the hemodilution phase of the experiment, which produced coagulopathy evidenced by prolonged clot formation times. However, POMCO2 increased because of the uncontrolled hemorrhage by 11.3 ± 3.1 mmHg and was inversely correlated with the drop (17.9 ± 5.9 mmHg) in MAP (Y = -0.4122*X + 2.649, P = .02, r2 = 0.686). In contrast, lactate did not significantly correlate with the changes in MAP (P = .35) or POMCO2 (P = .37).
Conclusions: Despite the logical appeal of measuring noninvasive tissue CO2 measurement as a surrogate for gastrointestinal perfusion, prior studies have only reported snapshots of this readout. The present investigation shows real-time longitudinal measurement of POMCO2 to confirm that MAP inversely correlates to POMCO2 in the face of coagulopathy. The simplicity of measuring POMCO2 in real time can provide an additional practical option for military or civilian medics to monitor trends in hypoperfusion during hemorrhagic shock.

Optical techniques, such as functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), contain high potential for the development of non-invasive wearable systems for evaluating cerebral vascular condition in aging, due to their portability and ability to monitor real-time changes in cerebral hemodynamics. In this study, thirty-six healthy adults were measured by single channel fNIRS to explore differences between two age groups using machine learning (ML). The subjects, measured during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at Oulu University Hospital, were divided into young (age ≤ 32) and elderly (age ≥ 57) groups.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy is a cornerstone treatment for many cancers, but it can induce severe immunotoxicity, including acute interstitial nephritis (AIN). Currently, kidney biopsy is required to differentiate ICI-AIN from other causes of acute kidney injury (AKI). However, this invasive approach can lead to morbidity, delayed glucocorticoid treatment for patients with AIN, and unnecessarily prolonged suspension of ICI therapy in non-AIN patients.

Domestic laundry wastewater is a major contributor to microfiber emissions in the aquatic environment. Among several mitigation measures, the use of external filters to capture microfibers from wastewater is one of the most efficient and commercially viable methods. This study attempted to develop an eco-friendly filtration medium to filter microfibers in laundry wastewater using luffa cylindrica fibers.

Purpose: Induction of meiotic competence is a major goal of the controlled ovarian stimulation used in ART. Do factors intrinsic to the oocyte contribute to oocyte maturation? Deletions in mtDNA accumulate in long-lived post mitotic tissues and are found in human oocytes. If oogenesis cleanses the germline of deleterious deletions in mtDNA, meiotically competent oocytes should contain lower levels of mtDNA deletions vs.

Accurately and swiftly characterizing the state of polarization (SoP) of complex structured light is crucial in the realms of classical and quantum optics. Conventional strategies for detecting SoP, which typically involves a sequence of cascaded optical elements, are bulky, complex, and run counter to miniaturization and integration. While metasurface-enabled polarimetry has emerged to overcome these limitations, its functionality predominantly remains confined to identifying SoP within the standard Poincaré sphere framework.
