Histamine infusions induce reproducible severe hypotension. Intramuscular adrenaline showed ‘supposedly therapeutic’ plasma concentrations but did not produce a sustained clinically relevant improvement in shock in the majority of recipients. These findings question adrenaline pharmacokinetic surrogate thresholds and support the need for faster and ...

Identifying the pre‐Odra river system with hydroacoustic and seismic reflection imagery offshore Rügen Island, southern Baltic Sea

Boreas, EarlyView.
Understanding the course and dynamics of ancient river systems, such as the pre‐Odra, provides valuable insights into the post‐glacial evolution of landscapes and riverine processes. The northwest‐trending pre‐Odra was an important drainage system of the European mainland into the Baltic Basin during and after the Scandinavian Ice Sheet retreat ...
