To determine the contribution of extracranial oxygenation on regional cerebral oxygenation measured by an Invos 3100 near-infrared spectrometer, we measured oxygenation in blood drawn from both the facial vein (draining substantially blood from forehead areas) and the jugular venous bulb. There was no correlation between regional cerebral oxygenation and facial vein oxygenation (p = 0.35) but there was a significant correlation between regional cerebral oxygenation and jugular venous bulb oxygenation (p = 0.027). Linear regression analysis predicted a 3.6% change in regional oxygenation for every 10% change in jugular venous bulb oxygenation. We showed that extracranial tissue oxygenation had a negligible influence on the values recorded using near-infrared spectroscopy. Individual changes in jugular venous bulb oxygenation were poorly reflected. Data obtained by this near-infrared spectroscopy device are an unreliable guide to the adequacy of cerebral oxygenation.

We report the case of a young patient with severe hypoxic brain injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation, resulting in brain death/death by neurologic criteria (BD/DNC). Consistent with the patient's expressed wishes, treatment was sustained to facilitate organ donation. However, in the context of a severe post-resuscitation syndrome and physiological disturbances resulting from BD/DNC, refractory circulatory shock ensued.

Renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common form of acute kidney injury. The basic mechanism underlying renal IRI is acute inflammation, where oxidative stress plays an important role. Although bilirubin exhibits potent reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging properties, its clinical application is hindered by problems associated with solubility, stability, and toxicity.

The effect of sex in outcomes after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains uncertain. We explored whether outcomes differed between women and men after standardized care management during the first 5 days in the intensive care unit (ICU). This study was an observational analysis of the OXY-TC multicenter randomized clinical trial between June 15, 2016 and April 17, 2021.

Irregular and unpredictable fetal movement is the most common cause of artifacts in in utero functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), affecting analysis and limiting our understanding of early functional brain development. The accurate detection of corrupted functional connectivity (FC) resulting from motion artifacts or preprocessing, instead of neural activity, is a prerequisite for reliable and valid analysis of FC and early brain development. Approaches to address this problem in adult data are of limited utility in fetal fMRI.

Polystyrene nanoparticles pose significant toxicological risks to aquatic ecosystems, yet their impact on zebrafish ( ) embryonic development, particularly erythropoiesis, remains underexplored. This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to comprehensively evaluate the effects of polystyrene nanoparticle exposure on erythropoiesis in zebrafish embryos. validation experiments corroborated the transcriptomic findings, revealing that polystyrene nanoparticle exposure disrupted erythrocyte differentiation, as evidenced by the decrease in mature erythrocytes and concomitant increase in immature erythrocytes.
