Transparavertebral Occlusion of a Large Venovenous Collateral in a Fontan Patient

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with a univentricular heart following completion of the Fontan circulation often experience varying degrees of desaturation due to the formation of venovenous collaterals. We present a rare case of a Fontan patient with an enlarged azygous vein shunting into the pulmonary venous system, causing significant desaturation. As no standard

Cystatin C‐based eGFR better predicts renal vancomycin clearance than creatinine‐based eGFR in patients with allogeneic stem cell transplantation

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is mandatory when dosing renally eliminated drugs such as vancomycin. In clinical practice, different biomarkers and various equations are used to estimate GFR (eGFR), resulting in varying estimates.

Thoracic Vertebra Chance Fracture Resulting from Mechanical CPR

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology
Chest compressions, used in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), cause rib and sternum fractures in around 79% and 54% of patients, respectively. Spinal fractures resulting from CPR are far rarer. We present the case of a 70-year-old man who underwent mechanical CPR after choking whilst eating.

Therapeutic Potential of Photobiomodulation in Early Recovery After Experimental Spinal Cord Injury in Rats: Histological and Biomechanical Analysis

Journal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injuries (SCI) cause severe motor and sensory deficits, with limited treatment options. This study demonstrates that early application of photobiomodulation (PBM) can protect spinal cord tissue and accelerate functional recovery in a preclinical model, which integrates biomechanical analysis with histomorphological characteristics of the ...

The Importance of Patient Positioning in Radiography When Utilising Automatic Exposure Control

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study highlights the impact of inaccurate patient positioning on dose and image quality when utilising the automatic exposure control (AEC) for radiographic examinations. While the AEC serves to optimise radiation dose to patients, the results here demonstrate that poor positioning can lead to significant dose implications for patients.

Effects of feeding almond hulls to light lambs on carcass characteristics and meat quality

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Almond hulls (AH) are the main by‐product of almond processing for human consumption and contain bioactive compounds that can improve meat quality. Although AH are used as feed for dairy cows in some countries, information on their potential effects on meat quality is limited.
