24-hour Perfusion of Porcine Myocutaneous Flaps Mitigates Reperfusion Injury: A 7-day Follow-up Study

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2022
Background:. Static cold storage is the gold standard of preservation in vascularized composite allotransplantation and allows a preservation time of 4–6 hours. Machine preservation is a promising technique for prolonged preservation; however, studies on

Stepped vitrification technique for human ovarian tissue cryopreservation [PDF]

, 2019
The advantage of stepped vitrification (SV) is avoiding ice crystal nucleation, while decreasing the toxic effects of high cryoprotectant concentrations. We aimed to test this method for human ovarian tissue cryopreservation.

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.

Cerebral Pulsed Arterial Spin Labeling Perfusion Weighted Imaging Predicts Language and Motor Outcomes in Neonatal Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Rationale and Objectives: To compare cerebral pulsed arterial spin labeling (PASL) perfusion among controls, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) neonates with normal conventional MRI(HIE/MRI⊕), and HIE neonates with abnormal conventional MRI(HIE/MRI⊖).

Thyroid Hormone as a Method of Reducing Damage to Donor Hearts after Circulatory Arrest [PDF]

, 2017
There is a chronic lack of donor hearts to meet the need for heart transplant both in the US and worldwide. Further, the use of available hearts is limited by the short period between collection and implantation during which the heart can be safely ...

Organ Reconditioning and Machine Perfusion in Transplantation

Transplant International, 2023
Society’s self-sufficiency in terms of organ replacement is still far away from being achieved, given the large disparity between transplant demand and donor organ availability. In the attempt to reduce this discrepancy and expand the donor pool, the transplant community has progressively increased the utilisation of extended-criteria donors (ECD) such

Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Pan-caspase inhibition during normothermic machine perfusion of discarded livers mitigates ex situ innate immune responses

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Access to liver transplantation is limited by a significant organ shortage. The recent introduction of machine perfusion technology allows surgeons to monitor and assess ex situ liver function prior to transplantation. However, many donated organs are of

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination for the assessment of renal perfusion in cats with chronic kidney disease [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination (CEUS) is a functional imaging technique allowing noninvasive assessment of tissue perfusion. Studies in humans show that the technique holds great potential to be used in the diagnosis of chronic ...
