Neuromuscular Blockade with Rocuronium Bromide Increases the Tolerance of Acute Normovolemic Anemia in Anesthetized Pigs [PDF]

, 2012
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:

Spatially Programmable Electroadhesive Enables In Situ Site‐Selective Functional Coupling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A light‐activated, in situ spatially programmable bioadhesive (STICH) enables microscale, site‐selective integration of bioelectronic devices with wet tissue. It achieves robust mechanical bonding and low‐impedance electrical coupling, enabling reconfigurable neuromodulation and directional electromechanical sensing in vivo and ex vivo.

Central neuraxial blockade in chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura: Platelet count or function and the concept of rebalanced hemostasis

The Indian Anaesthetists' Forum, 2016
Anesthetic management of patients having immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) remains a challenge for the anesthesiologist. Surgeries such as knee arthroplasty are associated with significant bleeding.

Macrophages Mediate Mesoscale Brain Mechanical Homeostasis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We investigated the role of infiltrating immune cells in sculpting the developing brain. Using Brillouin microscopy and active microrheology, we found microglia actively maintain tissue viscoelasticity. Moreover, colony stimulating factor one receptor (CSF1R)‐driven stromal remodeling alters brain mechanics in vivo. These findings link immune activity,
