Conditions That Limit Outpatient Abortion Care at Clinics in the United States
Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective While most people in the United States obtain abortion care in outpatient settings, such facilities may limit care for some individuals because of a variety of conditions. The situations when abortion care cannot be obtained in the outpatient setting have not been evaluated, leaving a deficit in understanding the need for hospital ...

Transfusion, EarlyView.Abstract Background Chronic automated red cell exchange (RCE) reduces hemoglobin S (HbS) in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), but procedural success varies across patients in ways standard exchange parameters do not explain. We introduce the Sickling Pressure Index (SPI), derived from each patient's daily rate of HbS rise (ROR) and daily rate of

Public perspectives on potential changes to malaria deferral criteria in Canada
Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Objectives As blood collection agencies (BCAs) seek to increase donor diversity, making changes to eligibility criteria to enable more people to donate is an important consideration. BCAs in Canada have a permanent deferral from whole blood and platelet donation for anyone with a history of malaria, a barrier to donation for ...

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Objectives Parvovirus B19 (B19V) testing is often not required to release blood components. However, the European Pharmacopoeia requires that plasma pools for fractionation contain no more than 104 IU/mL of B19V DNA. In France, pool B19 nucleic acid testing (NAT) screening was performed by Établissement Français du Sang since ...

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

PharmaceuticalsBackground/Objectives: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is caused by a β-globin gene mutation (βGlu6Val) that produces sickle hemoglobin (HbS). When deoxygenated, HbS polymerizes, leading to red blood cell (RBC) sickling; therefore, hemoglobin is a central ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

Alzheimer's &Dementia: Behavior &Socioeconomics of Aging, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2026.Abstract INTRODUCTION Ethnoracialized individuals, for example, Black/African American (AA), American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN), and Hispanic/Latinx (H/L), are underrepresented in Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarker studies. We investigated whether and how ethnoracialized groups differ in their willingness to engage in preclinical AD biomarker ...
