Incorporation of rubomycin into exclusive shades of erythrocytes amounted to 7.1 per cent, that of tetracyclines to 6.9-8.9 per cent. Determination of stability of the erythrocyte containers showed that leakage of the antibiotics proceeded during the first 30 minutes of incubation at 37 degrees C when titrated with the Hanks solution. It varied with respect to different antibiotics. With the use of blood serum for titration stability of the erythrocyte containers probably increased. After incubation for 30 minutes only traces of the tetracycline derivatives were detected in the supernatant liquid while rubomycin was not detectable at all. Therefore, the study showed that the exclusive shades of autologous erythrocytes may be in principle used for transport of water-soluble antibiotics.

Chemotherapeutic drugs often fail to localize efficiently to tumors when administered intravenously, causing off-target effects. This study proposes an autologous erythrocyte (ER)-anchoring strategy to improve chemotherapy efficacy and reduce side effects. Utilizing a modified hemodialysis instrument, a closed-system drug-transfer device was developed for autologous ER procurement and immunogenicity mitigation.

Unlabelled: Autologous blood obtained during hardware reinfusion can be bacterially contaminated with skin microflora in most cases (up to 90%) regardless of the area of surgical intervention. Increased volume of washing solution for red blood cell management, white blood cell filtration and X-ray irradiation do not always provide complete decontamination.

Objective: To analyze the effectiveness of adding cefuroxime to extracorporeal circuit during hardware blood reinfusion.

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains a leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide, with an increasing incidence in western countries over the past decades. During this period the numbers of PPH-related allogeneic red blood cell (RBC) transfusions have also significantly increased. Given the increasing scarcity and risks of allogeneic RBC transfusions, which are also associated with adverse maternal outcomes, optimized blood management strategies are urgently needed in obstetrics.

CRISPR-based gene therapy for the induction of fetal hemoglobin in sickle cell disease.

Introduction: Sickle cell disease is ameliorated and perhaps can be 'cured' if enough fetal hemoglobin is present in most erythrocytes. Hydroxyurea, which increases fetal hemoglobin levels, is widely available and effective, especially in children. Nevertheless, only cell-based gene therapy can achieve a 'curative' fetal hemoglobin threshold.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of combining autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) for the repair of pressure ulcers. We included 90 patients with pressure ulcers from General Technology Gemstone Flower Healthcare Jilin City Hospital of Chemical Industry between January 2021 and December 2023. Patients were randomly assigned to either a control group or an observation group, with 45 patients in each.
