Hospital Costs Associated With Mechanical Left Ventricular Unloading Devices During VA ECMO for Adult Cardiogenic Shock

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In a cohort of patients with cardiogenic shock supported with V‐A ECMO, the addition of left ventricular mechanical unloading was associated with higher median hospitalization costs ($390 508 vs. $320 269), longer hospital length of stay (IRR 1.06, p < 0.001), and lower mortality compared with VA ECMO alone (HR 0.62, p = 0.006).

Development of a Swine Whole Eye Transplant Ex Vivo Perfusion Protocol

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study establishes the first subnormothermic machine perfusion protocol for whole eye transplants in a swine model, enabling up to 18 h of preservation with stable metabolic function, limited edema, and recovery of mydriasis. ABSTRACT Background The first human Whole Eye Transplant (WET) has sparked new hope for patients who have lost vision due to

Hormonal Treatment During Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion Ameliorates Brain Death Induced Inflammation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Treatment of lungs during ex vivo perfusion with 17β‐estradiol and methylprednisolone improved graft quality. In females, treated and non‐treated groups presented reduced leukocyte infiltration and only the treatment improved perfusion flow. In males, treatment improved lung function by increasing compliance, paO2, and perfusion flow.

Congenital aniridia: European COST action ANIRIDIA‐NET guidelines for diagnosis, management and care

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Congenital aniridia is a rare ocular disorder affecting the majority of eye structures and can be associated with systemic manifestations. The main visible phenotypic characteristic is the partial or complete absence of the iris; however, foveal hypoplasia is a more frequent and reliable clinical sign. Other ocular comorbidities are associated
