Plasma Exchange versus Intravenous Immunoglobulin in Worsening Myasthenia Gravis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis with Special Attention to Faster Relapse Control

Biomedicines, 2023
Currently used rescue interventions to prevent rapid myasthenic deterioration are plasma exchange (PLEX) and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). We investigated the evidence to determine whether the two methods were interchangeable or whether one was ...

Observational Study of Tocilizumab in Children With Febrile Infection‐Related Epilepsy Syndrome

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of using tocilizumab in children with febrile infection‐related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) and explore tocilizumab‐related changes in interleukin (IL)‐6 levels. Methods Patients with FIRES admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Beijing Children's Hospital were retrospectively ...

Replacing plasma membrane outer leaflet lipids with exogenous lipid without damaging membrane integrity.

PLoS ONE, 2019
We recently introduced a MαCD-based method to efficiently replace virtually the entire population of plasma membrane outer leaflet phospholipids and sphingolipids of cultured mammalian cells with exogenous lipids (Li et al, (2016) Proc. Natl. Acad.

Nonlinear physics of the ionosphere and LOIS/LOFAR

, 2007
The ionosphere is the only large-scale plasma laboratory without walls that we have direct access to. From results obtained in systematic, repeatable experiments in this natural laboratory, where we can vary the stimulus and observe its response in a ...

β‐Catenin/c‐Myc Axis Modulates Autophagy Response to Different Ammonia Concentrations

Advanced Biology, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2025.
Ammonia, detoxified by the liver into urea and glutamine, impacts autophagy differently at varying levels. Low ammonia activates autophagy via c‐Myc and β‐catenin, while high levels suppress it. Using Huh7 cells and Spf‐ash mice, c‐Myc's role in cytoprotective autophagy is revealed, offering insights into hyperammonemia and potential therapeutic ...

TTP-like syndrome associated with hemoglobin SC disease treated successfully with plasma and red cell exchange

Leukemia Research Reports, 2019
Background: Sickle cell hemoglobinopathies are associated with end organ damage but very rarely present with a clinical and laboratory picture of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) and thrombocytopenia, characteristic of thrombotic microangiopathy (

Acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic Purpura diagnosed during first trimester of pregnancy with excellent outcome after plasma exchange and rituximab, a case report

Clinical Case Reports, 2021
Key Clinical Message Acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is a life‐threatening condition that rarely presents during pregnancy. Early diagnosis and treatment with plasma exchange is needed to achieve a good pregnancy outcome.

Radiocarbon positive-ion mass spectrometry [PDF]

, 2015
Proof-of-principle of a new mass spectrometric technique for radiocarbon measurement is demonstrated. Interfering nitrogen and hydrocarbon molecules are largely eliminated in a charge-exchange cell operating on non-metallic gas.

Using a Supramolecular Approach to Engineer Modular Hydrogel Platforms for Culturing Protoplasts – from General Tissue Engineering to Cellular Agriculture

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Using supramolecular monomers, various hydrogel culture systems were formulated to culture protoplasts; including 2D, 2.5D, and 3D hydrogels. Depending on the culture platform, bioactive functionalization led to protoplast enlargement (2D and 2.5D) or plasmolysis (3D). This work shows the potential to modularly engineer synthetic platforms for cellular

Stirring Unmagnetized Plasma

, 2012
A new concept for spinning unmagnetized plasma is demonstrated experimentally. Plasma is confined by an axisymmetric multi-cusp magnetic field and biased cathodes are used to drive currents and impart a torque in the magnetized edge.
