The Challenge of Bacterial Infections During Intensive Care Unit Stay After Heart Transplantation

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Infections occurring in the early post–heart transplant (HT) period heavily contribute to morbidity and mortality. Our goal is to evaluate the incidence of hospital‐acquired pneumonia/ventilator‐associated pneumonia (HAP/VAPs) and/or bloodstream infections (BSIs) after HT during the intensive care unit (ICU) stay and identify their ...

Insulin resistance, overweight, and obesity in apheresis donors: A call to reevaluate their eligibility—A prospective cohort study

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Apheresis procedures and the infusion of acid‐citrate‐dextrose induce metabolic alterations that may influence glucose metabolism. Although insulin resistance (IR), overweight, and obesity are not exclusion criteria for blood donation, their impact during apheresis procedure and on post‐donation metabolic responses remains ...

The clinical use of platelet transfusions: A systematic literature review and meta‐analysis on behalf of the International Collaboration for Transfusion Medicine Guidelines

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Platelets are frequently transfused, but supply and potential harms highlight the importance of appropriate use. Study Design and Methods Our systematic review (SR) followed a predefined protocol. Eligible studies included SRs, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and matched cohort observational studies between 1946 and March 2025.

Novel method of leukocytapheresis using a highly concentrated sodium citrate solution alternative to acid citrate dextrose solution A

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Large‐volume leukocytapheresis is time consuming. The upper limit of the inlet flow rate is determined by the inlet: anticoagulant (AC) ratio and can be changed by combining the AC with heparin. Here, we devised a protocol to increase the AC ratio using a highly concentrated sodium citrate solution without heparin.

Comparison effectiveness of topical analgesics with and without Entonox for esophagogastroduodenoscopy: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Objectives Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is vital for diagnosing and treating upper gastrointestinal symptoms, but patient discomfort and anxiety can affect procedural outcomes. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of topical analgesics with and without Entonox during EGD in terms of procedural success, patient tolerance, and ...

Diagnosis of Pediatric Myositis Ossificans Based on Cytomorphology and Molecular Analysis From FNAB Sample: A Case Report

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 53, Issue 7, Page E138-E143, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign soft tissue lesion, characterized by ectopic ossification due to inappropriate fibroblast differentiation, most commonly affecting skeletal muscles. It often occurs in young adults after muscle trauma, predominantly in male patients and very rarely in children. We describe the case of a previously healthy 3‐
