Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

Alterations in Arterial Blood Parameters in Patients with Liver Cirrhosis and Ascites

International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2007
In cirrhotic patients, in addition to hepatocytes and Kuppfer cells dysfunction circulatory anatomic shunt and ventilation/perfusion (VA/ Q) ratio abnormalities can induce decrease in partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2), in oxygen ...

Plasma supplemented with glycine is superior to standard plasma in reducing vascular permeability and organ injury via reduction of inflammation in an experimental traumatic shock model

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background While plasma transfusion is a key resuscitation strategy, its mechanisms of benefit beyond coagulopathy correction remain unclear. Solvent detergent plasma, which contains high glycine levels and lacks inflammatory mediators, may offer advantages over fresh frozen plasma by preserving endothelial integrity and reducing inflammation.

Confined spaces in space: Cerebral implications of chronic elevations of inspired carbon dioxide and implications for long‐duration space travel

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebrovascular regulation is critically dependent upon the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$), owing to its effect on cerebral blood flow, tissue PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$, tissue proton concentration, cerebral metabolism and cognitive and neuronal ...
