The 2-component dispersionless Burgers equation arising in the modelling of blood flow [PDF]

, 2012
This article investigates the properties of the solutions of the dispersionless two-component Burgers (B2) equation, derived as a model for blood-flow in arteries with elastic walls. The phenomenon of wave breaking is investigated as well as applications

hPMSCs inhibit the expression of PD-1 in CD4+IL-10+ T cells and mitigate liver damage in a GVHD mouse model by regulating the crosstalk between Nrf2 and NF-κB signaling pathway

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2021
Background The activation of T cells and imbalanced redox metabolism enhances the development of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Human placenta-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hPMSCs) can improve GVHD through regulating T cell responses.

Role of therapeutic drug monitoring in pulmonary infections : use and potential for expanded use of dried blood spot samples [PDF]

, 2015
Respiratory tract infections are among the most common infections in men. We reviewed literature to document their pharmacological treatments, and the extent to which therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is needed during treatment.

Leukodepleted Blood Components [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1993
The use of leukodepleted blood components may reduce some adverse effects of transfusion in certain clinical situations. This review outlines the recognised effects of contaminating passenger leucocytes, the value of leukodepleted components in preventing some of these complications, methods of leukodepletion and the current recommendations for use of
