A murine model of dengue virus infection in suckling C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice. [PDF]
Abstract Dengue is a significant public health concern across tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, principally causing disease in children. Very young children are at increased risk of severe manifestations of dengue infection. The mechanism of dengue disease in this population is not fully understood. In this study, we present a murine model of

High Avidity dsDNA Autoantibodies in Brazilian Women with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Correlation with Active Disease and Renal Dysfunction [PDF]
We investigated in Brazilian women with SLE the prevalence and levels of high avidity (HA) dsDNA antibodies and tested their correlation with lupus activity and biomarkers of renal disease. We also compared these correlations to those observed with total dsDNA antibodies and antibodies against nucleosome (ANuA).

Clinical Outcomes of Pectoralis Major Tendon Repair with and without Platelet-Rich Plasma. [PDF]
Purpose To assess clinical outcomes following pectoralis major tendon (PMT) repairs and to compare outcomes of PMT repairs augmented with and without leukocyte‐poor platelet‐rich plasma (LP‐PRP). Methods A retrospective review of prospectively collected data was performed of patients who underwent a PMT repair from May 2007 to June 2019 with a minimum ...

Clot formation and resolution properties of platelets during cold storage for 21 days. [PDF]
Abstract Background Cold storage (2–6°C) preserves the aggregatory and clot formation properties of platelets beyond the standard 7‐day shelf life. Comparatively little is known about the effect of cold storage on clot resolution functions, which are necessary to ensure normal hemostatic balance is maintained.

The assessment of platelet function by thromboelastometry as a point-of-care test to guide Intercept-treated platelet support in hemato-oncological patients and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Pathogen inactivation (PI) techniques for platelet concentrates (PCs) are one of the latest innovations to improve blood safety and reduce the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs). An impaired function and in vivo recovery of platelets as well as an increased PC demand are concerns regarding these techniques.
