ABSTRACT Ora‐pro‐nobis (OPN) is a food plant with polyphenol‐rich leaves. However, the influence of seasonality on their quantitative phenolic composition and how it impacts their bioactivities is unknown. OPN leaves were harvested throughout 12 months, and their individual phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and erythroprotection were assessed ...

This study identifies biliary glutathione concentration during normothermic machine perfusion as a potential biomarker for biliary viability. Increasing GSH levels correlate with fewer biliary complications post‐transplant, supporting its role in assessing graft quality and improving decision‐making in liver transplantation.

Erythrocyte hemighosts in a patient with tumor lysis syndrome: One train may hide another
Rasburicase was introduced to treat hyperuricemia secondary to tumor lysis syndrome. Because of severe hemolytic anemia, a blood smear was requested and showed hemighosts, revealing G6PD deficiency.

Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

A Compact Optical Sensor to Self‐Assess Skin Health after Sun Exposure
This work presents a portable, low‐cost device capable of detecting changes in the skin associated with excessive sun exposure through reflectance measurements. In vitro validation experiments in skin‐mimicking tissue phantoms showed the device can detect relative pigmentation changes as small as 5%.

Effect of metformin on the bioavailability of nitric oxide in patients with type 2 diabetes
The aim of our study was to evaluate the levels of nitrite in plasma and methemoglobin in whole blood using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving metformin.

A human subventricular zone‐on‐a‐chip is developed to model intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) in preterm infants. This platform enables the study of inflammation‐driven neurogenic disruption. Exposure to hemorrhagic cerebrospinal fluid and red blood cell lysate activated inflammatory pathways, with IL1B emerging as a key mediator.
