Network-assisted analysis of GWAS data identifies a functionally-relevant gene module for childhood-onset asthma

Scientific Reports, 2017
The number of genetic factors associated with asthma remains limited. To identify new genes with an undetected individual effect but collectively influencing asthma risk, we conducted a network-assisted analysis that integrates outcomes of genome-wide ...

Left ventricle unloading during veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: review with updated evidence [PDF]

Acute and Critical Care
Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is widely used to treat medically refractory cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest, and its usage has increased exponentially over time. Although VA-ECMO has many advantages over other mechanical

Outcome of Fresh Frozen Plasma Versus Albumin in Priming Solution of Extracorporeal Circuit in Neonatal Cardiac Surgery: A Prospective Comparative Observational Study [PDF]

Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Medicine
Introduction: In neonatal cardiac surgery, the choice of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) priming fluid is crucial. Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) provides essential coagulation factors that can help reduce bleeding, while albumin helps maintain oncotic pressure ...

Successful extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in a patient with central airway obstruction due to an endotracheal mass

Journal of International Medical Research, 2022
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) assists blood circulation and gas exchange via a heart–lung machine. ECMO is used mainly in intensive care units as bridging therapy until heart and respiratory failure can be addressed or until transplantation ...
