Hematocrit, hematocrit Regulation and its effect on oxygen consumption in the late stage chicken embryo (Gallus domesticus). [PDF]

, 2004
Hematocrit and hematocrit regulation have the potential to affect developing embryos. To examine the ability of chicken embryos at day 15 to regulate hematocrit, they were subjected to either repeated saline injections (5% of total blood volume) or ...

Developing and Evaluating a Laboratory‐Based Frailty Index for the Prediction of Long‐Term Health Outcomes in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to construct and evaluate the first laboratory‐based frailty index (FI‐Lab) for predicting adverse outcomes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to compare its predictive ability to that of an existing clinical FI. Methods We used data from a single‐center prospective cohort of adult patients with SLE whose baseline visit ...

Assessing the Accuracy of Visual Blood Loss Estimation in Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of the Femur in a Tertiary Hospital 2019-2022

Philippine Journal of Orthopaedics
Background. Accurate estimation of intraoperative blood loss is crucial for effective treatment, particularly in orthopedic procedures such as open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with intramedullary nails for femoral fractures.

Relation between hematocrit partitioning and red blood cell lingering in a microfluidic network. [PDF]

Despite increased interest in the effect of lingering red blood cells (LRBCs) on the heterogeneous hematocrit distribution in the microcirculation, quantitative data on LRBCs before and after the lingering event is still limited. The aim of the study was

Heme‐NO Dilates Arteries via Mobilization of NO Moieties From an Intracellular NO Store Within Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nitrosyl heme emerges as an extracellular nitrodilator that dilates arteries without crossing the cell membrane. Instead, heme‐NO mobilizes NO moieties from a preformed intracellular NO store within vascular smooth muscle, providing both functional and chemical evidence for the NANOS model, revealing a previously unrecognized mechanism of arterial ...

Lyophilized Synthetic Platelets: In Vitro Characterization and in Vivo Evaluation in Mouse Thrombocytopenia Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Platelet transfusions to treat bleeding complications use donor‐derived platelets stored at room‐temperature, that have a shelf‐life of only 5–7 days due to bacterial contamination risks. Cold‐stored and freeze‐dried platelets are being investigated for extending shelf‐life, but these still have the inherent challenge of donor‐dependency.

Seeking the optimal hematocrit: May hemorheological modelling provide a solution ?

, 2018
International audienceHematocrit increases during exercise and is usually decreased after regular training. However the interpretation of these facts is ambiguous since hematocrit is both a determinant of oxygen supply and the major determinant of blood ...

Normalization of Blood Viscosity According to the Hematocrit and the Shear Rate

Micromachines, 2022
The rheological properties of blood depend highly on the properties of its red blood cells: concentration, membrane elasticity, and aggregation. These properties affect the viscosity of blood as well as its shear thinning behavior.

Optimal hematocrit for canine gastric oxygenation

, 1989
To determine whether an optimal hematocrit exists at which gastric tissue is maximally oxygenated, chambered segments of resting canine stomach were perfused at a constant pressure while hematocrit was decreased in steps from 60 to 10%.
