Effects of hyperoxia in pediatric perfusion patients: a scoping review

open access: yesThe Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology
Hyperoxia in pediatric cardiopulmonary bypass patients is associated with adverse effects, including reoxygenation injury, increased mortality, heightened inflammatory response, and cerebral injury.

Spatio-Temporal Modelling of Perfusion Cardiovascular MRI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Myocardial perfusion MRI provides valuable insight into how coronary artery and microvascular diseases affect myocardial tissue. Stenosis in a coronary vessel leads to reduced maximum blood flow (MBF), but collaterals may secure the blood supply of the ...

Mild hyperthermia enhances sensitivity of gastric cancer cells to chemotherapy through reactive oxygen species–induced autophagic death

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2017
Mild hyperthermia enhances anti-cancer effects of chemotherapy, but the precise biochemical mechanisms involved are not clear. This study was carried out to investigate whether mild hyperthermia sensitizes gastric cancer cells to chemotherapy through ...

Renal perfusion in scleroderma patients assessed by microbubble-based contrast-enhanced ultrasound [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
OBJECTIVES: Renal damage is common in scleroderma. It can occur acutely or chronically. Renal reserve might already be impaired before it can be detected by laboratory findings.

The multifaceted roles of lysosomes in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Lysosomes support cancer cell adaptation by integrating macromolecule degradation and nutrient recycling with nutrient sensing, inter‐organelle communication and immune regulation. These interconnected functions can promote tumour growth, stress tolerance and therapy resistance, while also creating context‐dependent vulnerabilities that may be ...

Vascular normalization confers an endothelial immune suppressive gene expression profile

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We compare the immunoregulatory gene expression profiles of healthy endothelial cells or endothelial cells from tumors having a normalized endothelium (low leakage) with that of wild‐type tumors (high leakage) and observe that the wild‐type tumor endothelium exhibits immunostimulatory properties.

A novel strategy for conversion from pediatric V-A ECMO to CPB circuit

open access: yesThe Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology
This article describes two novel strategies to convert a veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (V-A ECMO) supported pediatric patient circuit to a cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit.

Minimal invasive extracorporeal circulation an alternative to ECMO in ventricular tachycardia ablation

open access: yesThe Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology, 2023
Background: The advantages of mechanical assistance during ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation have not been clinically demonstrated. We propose and discuss a technique, set up by us, that makes use of minimally invasive extra-corporeal circulation ...
