Analytical Validation of a Novel Point‐Of‐Care Quantitative Immunoassay for Feline N‐Terminal Pro‐Brain Natriuretic Peptide

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Point‐of‐care testing (POC) is widely utilized for rapid results for many different analytes. A new feline‐specific N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) quantitative assay (Vcheck V200, Bionote Inc) is currently available but has not undergone independent validation.

Blood flow restriction: The acute effects of body tilting and reduced gravity analogues on limb occlusion pressure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) has been identified as a potential countermeasure to mitigate physiological deconditioning during spaceflight. Guidelines recommend that tourniquet pressure be prescribed relative to limb occlusion pressure (LOP); however, it is unclear whether body tilting or reduced gravity analogues influence LOP.

Acute alterations in blood lactate in the setting of transient stress induced myocardial ischaemia

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract An elevation in resting venous blood lactate ([La−]b) levels in conditions of myocardial hypoperfusion is associated with adverse prognosis and survival. This investigation aimed to assess changes in venous [La−]b levels induced by dobutamine stress in the presence and absence of myocardial ischaemia and adverse outcomes at 1 year.

Systolic‐dominant coronary flow in rats and mice: Challenging the diastolic paradigm across conscious and anaesthetized states

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Extensive research in humans, dogs, rabbits, rats, mice and other mammals has consistently demonstrated that coronary blood flow (CBF) peaks during ventricular diastole. For example, studies using transthoracic Doppler echocardiography in anaesthetized rats and mice, isolated blood‐perfused rat hearts and Doppler probes sutured to the ...

Physical exercise intervention in glycogen storage disease IIIa: Feasibility and multisystem benefits

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glycogen storage disease III (GSD‐III) is caused by an inherited deficiency of the glycogen debranching enzyme. Affecting the liver, muscle and heart, GSD‐IIIa is the most common GSD‐III subtype. We evaluated the feasibility and safety of a physical exercise intervention in patients with GSD‐IIIa and its effects at the multisystem level.
