Inhibition of the protective effects of preconditioning in ischemia–reperfusion injury by chronic methadone: the role of pAkt and pSTAT3

Scientific Reports
Cardiac ischemic preconditioning (Pre) reduces cardiac ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) by stimulating opioid receptors. Chronic use of opioids can alter the signaling pathways. We investigated the effects of chronic methadone use on IRI and Pre.

Splenectomy modulates intrarenal B cell differentiation and impairs repair of post-ischemic kidney

Frontiers in Immunology
IntroductionLymphocytes are known to regulate kidney repair after ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Splenectomy has been proposed as a preconditioning protocol for high-risk kidney transplantation and has been suggested to affect IRI outcomes.

Rehabilitation and return to activity after platelet‐rich plasma injections in chronic tendinopathies: Consensus from international experts

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The effectiveness of platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) injections in chronic tendinopathies remains debated. Although the product's characteristics play a role, the impact of postinjection recommendations remains poorly investigated. Objective To establish principles and guidelines for post‐PRP injection rehabilitation and return to ...

A Buffer-aided Successive Opportunistic Relay Selection Scheme with Power Adaptation and Inter-Relay Interference Cancellation for Cooperative Diversity Systems

, 2014
In this paper we consider a simple cooperative network consisting of a source, a destination and a cluster of decode-and-forward half-duplex relays. At each time-slot, the source and (possibly) one of the relays transmit a packet to another relay and the

Multimodal Assessment of Kidney Quality During 24‐h of Normothermic Machine Perfusion

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has emerged as a promising tool for assessing kidney quality prior to transplantation; however, reliable biomarkers remain to be established. In this study, thirteen porcine kidneys were perfused for 24 h using an autologous leukocyte‐filtered whole blood‐based perfusate applying urine recirculation.
