Impact of barometric pressure on blood pressure during dialysis: Introducing intradialytic time‐averaged cumulative systolic blood pressure (TACsBP‐inD) as a new metric

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 525-534, June 2025.
Abstract Background Blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for hemodialysis patients, but the specific impact of weather factors, particularly barometric pressure, on blood pressure remains unclear. This study aims to examine the relationship between barometric pressure and blood pressure in hemodialysis patients. Methods We conducted a single‐center,

A decade of renal dietetic staffing and malnutrition prevalence in dialysis patients: An observational study in a large dialysis population

Nutrition &Dietetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims This study explores the maintenance of dietetic full time equivalent staffing alongside malnutrition rate in a metropolitan renal dialysis service in Victoria, Australia. Objectives were to: (1) describe changes in dietitian staff‐to‐patient ratios over time; (2) evaluate dietetic service delivery against best practice guidelines and (3 ...

Platelet function in patients undergoing major non‐cardiac vascular surgery (PLUGS): a prospective cohort study*

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Patients who require major vascular surgery often receive antiplatelet therapy for primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. Clopidogrel resistance and variability in platelet recovery after drug discontinuation pose clinical challenges, particularly for regional anaesthesia and blood management.

Micro‐Nanoplastics Significantly Increase Adverse Events and Economic Burden Associated With Carotid Endarterectomy: A Health Economic Modelling Evaluation

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Current research reports that micro‐nanoplastics may increase the burden of cardiovascular disease with significant human and economic consequences. The detection of plastic particles in biological matrices is challenging and rigorous research is required to investigate the clinical and broader public health implications of microplastics.

An In Vitro System for Studying Toxin Transport Across Hemodialysis Membranes

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Development of an in vitro hemodialysis (HD) system based on mini dialyzers for evaluating hemodialysis membranes under physiologically relevant conditions. ABSTRACT Background Healthy kidneys regulate acid–base balance and electrolytes, produce hormones, and clear excess fluids and uremic toxins.

Short Inter‐Treatment Interval Treatment With Artificial Liver Support System Reduces 90‐Day Transplant‐Free Mortality in Patients With Hepatitis B Virus–Related Acute‐On‐Chronic Liver Failure: A Retrospective Observational Study

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
ALSS short inter‐treatment interval treatment (patients received two ALSS treatments within 48 h) correlates with improved liver function and 90‐day transplant‐free survival of HBV‐ACLF. This result provides a certain theoretical basis for the timing and time interval of ALSS for HBV‐ACLF, enriches the models and contents of ALSS treatment for HBV‐ACLF,

Paediatric Index of Mortality 3 in Sweden: Validation and Recalibration to Improve Mortality Prediction in Paediatric Intensive Care

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In Sweden, critically ill children are admitted to one of four dedicated paediatric intensive care units (PICUs) or general intensive care units (ICUs), reflecting a partly centralised system. The Paediatric Index of Mortality 3 (PIM3) is a widely used risk stratification tool for predicting mortality in critically ill children. This study
