A quality improvement initiative to reduce inappropriate plasma transfusions across community hospitals in the Niagara region

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Plasma transfusion is indicated for patients with coagulopathy and active bleeding or those undergoing major surgery. Appropriate use is defined by an international normalized ratio (INR) >1.7 and a dose of 3–4 units for adults.

Effects of tempol on renal medullary tissue hypoxia in an ovine model of Gram‐negative septic acute kidney injury

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Renal arterial infusion of tempol (RAT) at the onset of Gram‐negative sepsis can prevent sepsis‐induced medullary tissue hypoxia and acute kidney injury (AKI). However, it is not known whether treatment with tempol at a clinically relevant time point of sepsis is similarly effective. Thus, we examined whether tempol can reverse renal medullary

Mapping the variability of in vivo rat uterine electrical properties throughout the oestrous cycle

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract After reaching sexual maturity, uterine function is driven by cyclical variations in hormone levels. The electrical and mechanical activity in the uterus varies during the menstrual cycle, contributing to essential functions such as sperm transport and shedding the menstrual lining.

Euler-Mahonian Statistics On Ordered Set Partitions (II)

, 2007
We study statistics on ordered set partitions whose generating functions are related to $p,q$-Stirling numbers of the second kind. The main purpose of this paper is to provide bijective proofs of all the conjectures of \stein (Arxiv:math.CO/0605670). Our

Neuromuscular and neuromechanical assessments of respiratory performance in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy across the natural history of disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe life‐limiting X‐linked neuromuscular disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle degeneration and respiratory failure. The mdx mouse, lacking dystrophin, is the most widely used preclinical model of DMD, yet the trajectory of respiratory dysfunction in this model remains incompletely ...

Assessing the effectiveness of texture and color enhancement imaging versus white‐light endoscopy in detecting gastrointestinal lesions: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Introduction Gastrointestinal cancers account for 26% of cancer incidence and 35% of cancer‐related deaths globally. Early detection is crucial but often limited by white light endoscopy (WLE), which misses subtle lesions. Texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI), introduced in 2020, enhances texture, brightness, and color, addressing WLE's

Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Fine‐Needle Biopsy With End‐Cutting Needles in Autoimmune Pancreatitis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives There is limited evidence on the diagnostic yield of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)‐guided tissue acquisition (TA) using fine‐needle biopsy (FNB) in autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP), particularly considering the newer end‐cutting needles.

Scheduled Inside Plastic Stent Exchange Prevents Cholangitis and Reduces Unplanned Hospitalization in Patients With Unresectable Malignant Hilar Biliary Obstruction

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To prevent cholangitis in patients with unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO), we recently implemented scheduled inside plastic stent (IS) exchange every 2–4 months. This study aimed to evaluate whether this strategy prevents cholangitis onset and reduces unplanned hospitalizations without increasing adverse events.

Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging for the Kyoto Classification of Gastritis: Evaluation of Visibility and Color Differences

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Statistically significant differences between the three groups were observed. Furthermore, the ΔE* of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI)‐1 was significantly greater than that of TXI‐2. Box plots show the median (center line) and interquartile range (box). Whiskers extend to the most extreme values within 1.5×IQR, and values beyond the whiskers
