Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Hemolysis Detected Following the Preparation and Collection of Blood in a Porcine Model Using a Syringe‐Based Aspiration Thrombectomy System for Autotransfusion

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Autologous transfusion of filtered, unwashed blood is a technique to mitigate the effects of blood loss during mechanical thrombectomy, but the degree of hemolysis resulting from this approach and guidance for blood return in this setting is not well understood.

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 839-847, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...
