High pressure excursion in a radial design oxygenator

open access: yesThe Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology
Oxygenator high-pressure (HPE) is a phenomenon that can occur during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in which the oxygenator inlet pressure increases rapidly, thereby limiting flow. Most perfusionists globally do not use inlet oxygenator pressure monitoring

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 ...

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 ...

Usefulness of a visual aid in achieving optimal positioning for spinal anesthesia: a randomized trial

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2018
Background Optimal patient positioning is perceived as an essential factor to increase the success of performing neuraxial blockade. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the benefit of using a visual image in addition to verbal ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Indexed oxygen delivery during pediatric cardiopulmonary bypass is a modifiable risk factor for postoperative acute kidney injury

open access: yesThe Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology, 2023
Background: Acute kidney injury after pediatric cardiac surgery is a common complication with few established modifiable risk factors. We sought to characterize whether indexed oxygen delivery during cardiopulmonary bypass was associated with ...

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

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.
