We report the comparison of the fonctionnal platelet criteria's evolution studied in vitro by aggregation with different agents, by osmotic stress, ATP total amount and platelet volume distribution for six days of storage in two different PVC bags. The results indicate that: platelet's evolution appears more appreciable when tested by aggregation with an important amount of collagen, by hypotonic stress and volume distribution. The difference between the two different bags is shown as early as the thirs day of storage; for quality control, we can choose some criteria despite the absence of their clear correlation with transfusion efficiency.

Objective: Recent studies have indicated a close relationship between intracranial arterial stenosis and white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), but few have reported on the correlation between the characteristics of intracranial arterial wall plaques and WMHs. The aim of this study was to comprehensively assess the correlation between intracranial atherosclerosis plaques and WMHs using 3.0T high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI).

Comparative analysis of left atrial size and appendage morphology in paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation patients.

J Arrhythm

February 2025

Heart Center Munich-Bogenhausen, Department of Cardiology and Internal Intensive Care Medicine Munich Hospital Bogenhausen, Munich Municipal Hospital Group Munich Germany.

Purpose: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is effective in treating atrial fibrillation (AF), but outcomes are worse for persistent AF (persAF) patients than paroxysmal AF (PAF) patients. The study aimed to identify differences in left atrial (LA) and left atrial appendage (LAA) anatomy in different AF types.

Methods: In a single-center observational study, a blinded retrospective analysis of preprocedural cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images was performed.

Effects of routine postural repositioning on the distribution of lung ventilation and perfusion in mechanically ventilated patients.

Intensive Crit Care Nurs

January 2025

Department of Intensive Care Medicine, Hospital Universitario de La Princesa, Madrid, Spain; Centro de investigación en red CIBERES de enfermedades respiratorias, Instituto de Salud, Carlos III, Madrid, Spain. Electronic address:

Objectives: To analyse the effects on respiratory function, lung volume and the regional distribution of ventilation and perfusion of routine postural repositioning in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients.

Methods: Prospective descriptive physiological study. We evaluated gas-exchange, lung mechanics, and Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) determined end-expiratory lung impedance and regional ventilation and perfusion distribution in five body positions: supine-baseline (S1); first lateralisation at 30° (L1); second supine position (S2), second contralateral lateralisation (L2) and third final supine position (S3).

Introduction: The core objective of this study was to precisely locate metastatic lymph nodes, identify potential areas in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients that may not require radiotherapy, and propose a hypothesis for reduced target volume radiotherapy on the basis of these findings. Ultimately, we reassessed the differences in dosimetry of organs at risk (OARs) between reduced target volume (reduced CTV2) radiotherapy and standard radiotherapy.

Methods And Materials: A total of 209 patients participated in the study.

The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is essential for transmitting signals from motor neurons (MNs) to skeletal muscles (SKMs), and its dysfunction can lead to severe motor disorders. However, our understanding of the NMJ is limited by the absence of accurate human models. Although human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived models have advanced NMJ research, their application is constrained by challenges such as limited differentiation efficiency, lengthy generation times, and cryopreservation difficulties.
