Breathing with normoxic helium-oxygen mixture under high pressure successively induced tremor, myoclonia, seizures. Blood flow and the pO2 during the motor disorders increased, depending in the pressure, in the cortex, caudate nucleus, black substance and reticular formation.

Background: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have procoagulative properties. As EVs are known to accumulate in stored blood products, we compared the EV content and coagulation capacity of leukoreduced cold-stored whole blood (CSWB) with current prehospital and in-hospital component therapies to understand the role of EVs in the haemostatic capacity of ageing CSWB.
Materials And Methods: Blood was obtained from 12 O RhD-positive male donors.

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) is a modality of extracorporeal life support which allows temporary support in cases of cardiopulmonary failure and cardiogenic shock. This study presents a valveless pump that works by the Liebau effect as a possible pumping system in ECMO circuits, replacing the current roller and centrifugal pumps. For this purpose, a mock circulatory loop emulating the haemodynamic of the right part of the heart has been constructed.

Local hemodynamics play an essential role in the initiation and progression of coronary artery disease. While vascular geometry alters local hemodynamics, the relationship between vascular structure and hemodynamics is poorly understood. Previous computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies have explored how anatomy influences plaque-promoting hemodynamics.

Rhabdomyolysis or Crush syndrome-related AKI (RM/CS-AKI) has high mortality, and there is no effective early on-site treatment method. The critical pathogenic factor of RM/CS-AKI is the excessive free myoglobin (Mb) in blood circulation. Here, based on the concept of creating a "mobile barrier", we develop an anti-Mb rabbit monoclonal antibody (RabMAb) with high specificity, affinity, stability, and broad species reactivity.

Background: Monocytes are evolutionarily preserved innate immune cells that play essential roles in immune response regulation. Three activated monocyte subsets-classical (CD14++CD16-), intermediate (CD14++CD16+), and nonclassical (CD14+CD16++)-are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) progression. This study aims to determine the association of monocyte subsets with SLE disease activity.
