Prognostic value of contrast‐enhanced ultrasound in dogs with acute renal injury treated with haemodialysis

Veterinary Record, Volume 196, Issue 6, 15/22 March 2025.
Abstract Background It is clinically relevant to predict outcomes in dogs with acute kidney injury (AKI) treated with haemodialysis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and its role in discriminating between AKI and acute impairment associated with chronic kidney disease (AKI/CKD).

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): Reconstruction of the redshift-space galaxy density field [PDF]

A&A 583, A61 (2015), 2015
Aims. Using the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS) we aim to jointly estimate the key parameters that describe the galaxy density field and its spatial correlations in redshift space. Methods. We use the Bayesian formalism to jointly reconstruct the redshift-space galaxy density field, power spectrum, galaxy bias and galaxy luminosity ...

Citizen Observations Shed New Light on Geographic Variation in Colour Polymorphism of a Widespread Reptile

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 629-640, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Colour polymorphism within ectothermic species and populations is shaped by multiple selection pressures that can vary geographically. Here, we tested different hypotheses to better understand this variation in colour polymorphism. The thermal melanism hypothesis predicts that darker colouration is beneficial in colder regions, due to ...

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Survey (VIPERS): First Release of spectra [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
We release the spectra for the more than 57000 objects presented in the First VIPERS Data Release. For each object we distribute the observed, wavelength and flux calibrated spectrum, as well as cleaned spectra, where artifacts due to fringing are removed. We also provide the sky and noise spectrum and the 2D spectrum. Data can be downloaded from http:/

Video Prediction Models as Rewards for Reinforcement Learning [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Specifying reward signals that allow agents to learn complex behaviors is a long-standing challenge in reinforcement learning. A promising approach is to extract preferences for behaviors from unlabeled videos, which are widely available on the internet.

Unveiling the complex effects of direct oral anticoagulants on dilute Russell's viper venom time assays

Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2020
Dilute Russell viper venom time (dRVVT) assays can be affected by direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), which may cause false‐positive results. However, there are conflicting results indicating significant differences between different reagents and DOACs.

Longitudinal assessment of cerebral infarcts and small vessel disease using magnetic resonance imaging in antiphospholipid syndrome: A single‐centre retrospective study

eJHaem, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Introduction Stroke is the most frequent arterial thrombosis in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) with high rates of recurrence. Methods and patients A retrospective, single‐centre 10‐year review of patients with APS having sequential cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed to describe ischaemic features in APS and associated ...

A First Case Report of Autoimmune Acquired Factor V Deficiency After Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 mRNA Vaccination at the Time of Initiating Haemodialysis

Nephrology, Volume 30, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT A 73‐year‐old Japanese man with chronic kidney disease had no history of abnormal clotting or bleeding. Six days after receiving his third dose of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) vaccine (BNT162b2; Pfizer/BioNTech), blood tests showed a marked prolongation of the prothrombin time‐international normalised ratio ...
