In 11 sheep anaemia was produced by one-time removal of from 17% to 20% total volume of blood. Blood samples for 2,3-DPG determinations in the erythrocytes were taken at 4-hour intervals during 72 hours. Posthaemorrhagic anaemic hypoxia caused in sheep a rise in the concentration of 2,3-DPG in the erythrocytes from a mean control value of about 0.13 microM/g Hb to 2.45 microM/g Hb during 20 hours after blood loss (primary rise). The return of this concentration to its control value occurred between 32 and 64 hours after blood loss. Between 36 and 56 hours after the blood loss a second (secondary) rise of 2,3-DPG concentration in the erythrocytes appeared reaching a peak level of about 0.6 microM/g Hb. Determinations of sodium and potassium in the erythrocytes of 5 low-potassium sheep demonstrated a fall in potassium concentration whose lowest values were observed 24 hours after blood loss. After 24 hours from blood removal potassium rose again to the initial value. The concentration of sodium in the erythrocytes showed changes opposite to those observed in the concentration of potassium.

Background: Our aim was to develop a quantitative model for immediately estimating the risk of death and/or brain injury in late-onset sepsis (LOS) in preterm infants, based on objective and measurable data available at the time sepsis is first suspected (i.e., time of blood culture collection).

Prolonged sitting can negatively impact postprandial glucose levels and cognitive function. While short bouts of stair climbing are thought to mitigate these risks, the findings remain inconclusive. The present study aimed to explore the effects of stair climbing bouts on postprandial glucose and cognitive functions during prolonged sitting.

Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after orthognathic surgery remains one of the most common side effects despite the use of several medications.
Purpose: The study aimed to compare the frequencies of PONV between a combination of metoclopramide with granisetron and granisetron alone.
Study Design, Setting, Sample: A randomized double-blind clinical trial was conducted in 66 consecutive patients who underwent orthognathic surgery at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Bezmialem Vakif University.

Objective: Managing blood glucose levels is challenging for elite athletes with type 1 diabetes (T1D) as competition can cause unpredictable fluctuations. While fear of hypoglycemia during physical activity is well documented, research on hyperglycemia-related anxiety (HRA) is limited. HRA refers to the heightened fear that hyperglycemia-related symptoms will impair functioning.
