The influence of hospitable design and service on patient responses [PDF]
A study of 216 respondents examined a medical center environment’s influence on patient responses. A stimulus–organism–response (S-O-R) model was adapted to the theory that more hospitable healthcare servicescape elements will affect patients’ overall ...

Abstract Background Transfusion‐related alpha‐gal syndrome (TRAGS) has recently been proposed as a cause of allergic transfusion reactions (ATRs) in which alpha‐gal‐specific IgE in sensitized group O (or potentially group A) recipients reacts with epitopes on group B or AB plasma‐containing components.

Safety and tolerability of amustaline/glutathione pathogen‐reduced red blood cells in neonatal rats
Abstract Background Amustaline (S‐303)/glutathione (GSH) pathogen‐reduced red blood cells (PR‐RBCs) are in development for all adult and pediatric RBC transfusion indications, including neonates and infants. A neonatal rat model evaluated the safety and tolerability of PR‐RBCs during growth and maturation. Study Design and Methods Repeated transfusions

Persistent Erythrocytosis in a Dog With a Spinal Sclerosing Paraganglioma
ABSTRACT A 7‐year‐old, male, castrated, mixed‐breed dog presented with right pelvic limb lameness and pain on posturing to defecate that began 1.5 years prior to presentation. Radiographs taken 8 months prior to presentation showed a small lytic lesion of the L6 vertebral body, and CBCs showed a persistently increased hematocrit (HCT) for at least 2 ...

Abstract Background and Objectives While deferral due to low haemoglobin (Hb) is known to affect donor return, how donors react to and manage low Hb is less well understood. This paper aims to (1) describe donor activities to manage low Hb, and (2) examine donor knowledge, recalled emotions, satisfaction and potential concerns, and to determine their ...

Abstract Background and Objectives Patients with haematological malignancies are at high risk of anaemia due to disease and treatment factors, making patient blood management (PBM) strategies critical. We aimed to identify the barriers and enablers to implementing the principles of PBM to conserve patients' own blood and reduce the risk of iatrogenic ...

Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

BACKROUND: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system plays a central role in fibrinolysis. Activation of the RAAS stimulates the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), which can be directly implicated in the pathophysiology of ...

Abstract figure legend A mouse model of exogenous glucocorticoid (GC) treatment was used to determine (1) if corticosterone induced the same metabolic dysregulation as cortisol, and (2) whether these differences were mediated by the corticosterone‐specific transmembrane exporter Abcc1.

ABSTRACT Background Transfusion‐related iron overload (TRIO) is a late effect of therapy impacting survivors of childhood cancer and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) who receive frequent packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusions. Surprisingly, there are no accepted guidelines to assist providers in identifying and treating at‐risk ...
