To evaluate the absorption spectrum and osmolarity of three currently used indocyanine green (ICG) products at different concentrations and with different solvent media.The absorption spectrum and osmolarity of three different ICG products (Pulsion, Munich, Germany; Akorn, Buffalo Grove, IL; and Laboratoires SERB, Paris, France) were analyzed. Each ICG

ABSTRACTBackground:Reduced osmolarity oral rehydration solution (ORS) improved small bowel absorption of fluid and electrolytes in segmental perfusion in experimental animals; this was borne out in clinical practice. Adding amylase‐resistant starch (RS) to ORS is expected to increase colonic fluid absorption.

Contrast-associated acute kidney injury : does it really exist, and if so, what to do about it? [PDF]
For decades, when contrast agents are administrated, physicians have been concerned because of the risk of inducing acute kidney injury (AKI). Recent literature questions the existence of AKI induced by contrast, but animal studies clearly showed harmful
