Neuromuscular Blockade with Rocuronium Bromide Increases the Tolerance of Acute Normovolemic Anemia in Anesthetized Pigs [PDF]
Background: The patient's individual anemia tolerance is pivotal when blood transfusions become necessary, but are not feasible for some reason. To date, the effects of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) on anemia tolerance have not been investigated. Methods:

A novel validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to quantify soluble hemojuvelin in mouse serum
Hemojuvelin is a critical regulator of hepcidin expression and can be cleaved by proteases to form soluble hemojuvelin. Soluble hemojuvelin has been recently identified in human serum but the presence and quantity of soluble hemojuvelin in mouse serum is
