Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) using exclusively albumin replacement fluid depletes coagulation factors, particularly fibrinogen, and concerns about performing multiple consecutive daily procedures due to iatrogenic bleeding exist. Fibrinogen testing to guide bleeding risk stratification is vague.

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${
