Quantitative Assessment of Tissue Perfusion in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using Perflubutane Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasonography: A Preliminary Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2015
Our purpose in this study was to assess the relationship between contrast signal intensity (CI) and concentration of perflubutane microbubbles in a phantom experiment, and to examine the feasibility of this technique for quantitative analysis of ...

Association of the perfusion index with postoperative acute kidney injury: a retrospective study [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2023
Background Many studies have examined the risk factors for postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI), but few have focused on intraoperative peripheral perfusion index (PPI) that has recently been shown to be associated with postoperative morbidity and ...

Perfusion index as a predictor of hypotension following propofol induction - A prospective observational study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2017
Background and Aims: Hypotension during propofol induction is a common problem. Perfusion index (PI), an indicator of systemic vascular resistance, is said to be predictive of hypotension following subarachnoid block.

Renal Vascular Perfusion Index in a Canine Model [PDF]

open access: yesUltrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2009
Decreased renal perfusion plays an important role in the progression toward renal failure. In this study, a novel measure was proposed to quantify renal perfusion using canine model. Serial renal vascular images at different vascular areas including the whole vascular tree, interlobar, arcuate and interlobular vessels were captured.

Perfusion index as a predictor of hypotension following spinal anaesthesia in lower segment caesarean section

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2017
Background and Aims: Perfusion index (PI) is a new parameter tried for predicting hypotension during spinal anaesthesia for the lower segment caesarean section (LSCS). This study aimed at investigating the correlation between baseline perfusion index and

Perfusion index and plethysmographic variability index in patients with interscalene nerve catheters [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, 2012
Interscalene nerve blocks provide adequate analgesia, but there are no objective criteria for early assessment of correct catheter placement. In the present study, pulse oximetry technology was used to evaluate changes in the perfusion index (PI) in both blocked and unblocked arms, and changes in the plethysmographic variability index (PVI) were ...

Predictive Value of Perfusion Index for Assessing Success of Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pain
Background: Perfusion index (PI) is a simple, objective, and noninvasive method for evaluating the success of brachial plexus blocks. There is only one study which assessed the time point at which the PI had the best predictive value.

Scope of physiological and behavioural pain assessment techniques in children – a review

open access: yesHealthcare Technology Letters, 2018
Pain is an unpleasant subjective experience. At present, clinicians are using self-report or pain scales to recognise and monitor pain in children. However, these techniques are not efficient to observe the pain in children having cognitive disorder and ...

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
