Pediatric Endotracheal Tube Cuff Management at Altitude: Implications for Aeromedical Retrieval and Other Austere Environments

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Children are sometimes transported via fixed or rotary wing aircraft for medical care. If they are intubated with a cuffed endotracheal tube (ETT), changes in environmental pressure during transport can alter cuff pressure. Cuff management in this setting varies widely by region and by organization. In this historical

The effects of sleep deprivation on susceptibility to parasitic infection in Drosophila nigrospiracula

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Sleep is important for cellular/humoral and behavioural immunity. In Drosophila mite systems, sleep deprivation reduced behavioural resistance against ectoparasitic infection. Sleep‐deprived flies exhibited lower endurance (negative geotaxis assay) and endurance is a reliable indicator of behavioural resistance against ectoparasites.

Limited Risk of Microbial Contamination During Hypothermic and Normothermic Machine Perfusion of Donor Kidneys

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Machine perfusion is increasingly used to preserve donor kidneys. Theoretically, machine perfusion poses as a risk of contamination. We investigated perfusion samples. Our findings show that even though contamination of the perfusate does occur, this did not lead to infectious complications in the recipients.

The impact of pressure and temperature on the quality of suspended red blood cells: An ex vivo simulation study

open access: yesTransfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aims to explore the impact of pressurisation and simultaneous warming at a combination of 50 kPa and 46°C on the quality of suspended red blood cells in an ex vivo environment. Background During massive rapid blood transfusion, pressure and temperature‐controlled blood warming devices are often used to prevent hypothermia ...

Bilateral simultaneous cataract surgery and intraocular lens implantation in an adult female chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) inducing monovision

open access: yesVeterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 457-464, March 2025.
Abstract Background Cataract is the major cause of visual impairment in humans. Phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is the standard technique for cataract treatment with a high success rate. In a few cases, the surgical cataract procedure and lens implantation have been applied in non‐human primates.

Techniques for subretinal injections in animals

open access: yesVeterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 506-518, March 2025.
Abstract Subretinal injections are not commonly performed during clinical treatment of animals but are frequently used in laboratory animal models to assess therapeutic efficacy and safety of gene and cell therapy products. Veterinary ophthalmologists are often employed to perform the injections in the laboratory animal setting, due to knowledge of ...
