    Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has evolved into a pivotal intervention in critical care, offering a lifeline for patients facing severe respiratory or cardiac failure. This review provides a comprehensive exploration of ECMO, spanning its definition and historical background to its contemporary advancements and ongoing impact in critical care. The versatility of ECMO in addressing diverse critical conditions, careful patient selection criteria, and the nuanced management of complications are discussed. Advances in technology, including miniaturization, novel circuit designs, and the integration of remote monitoring, showcase the evolving landscape of ECMO. The review underscores the ongoing impact of ECMO in improving survival rates, enhancing mobility, and enabling remote expertise. As a symbol of hope and innovation, ECMO's lifesaving potential is evident in its ability to navigate the complexities of critical care and redefine the boundaries of life support interventions.

    Abstract Hydroxyapatite (HAP), a natural constituent of bone tissue is commonly used for the clinical treatment of bone defects due to its similar structure with bone and excellent biocompatibility. However, the processing exertion, poor osteoinductive capability and poor mechanical strength of HAP needs further addressing for its immense implementation in tissue engineering. Different approaches have been reported to escalate the mechanical hardness and osteogenic potential of HAP. In the present work, halloysite nanoclay (HNC) and sericin protein were used for better mechanical and osteogenic properties, respectively. Halloysite nanoclay (HNC, 1.0-4.0%) was used to reinforce hydroxyapatite (HAP) and the mechanical strength of nanocomposite scaffolds were evaluated. After surface modification of nanocomposite scaffolds with 1.0% silk sericin protein; physical properties like microstructure, porosity, swelling ratio and degradation rate were evaluated. Cell morphology, cytocompatibility and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity were assessed using MG 63 osteoblast cell lines. HAP reinforced with 4% HNC (HAP@4) showed a significant increase (199 MPa) in young modulus as compared to pure HAP. HAP reinforced with 2% HNC (HAP@2) and 4% HNC (HAP@4) showed a significant decrease in porosity as well as degradation rate than pure HAP but no significant difference was observed in swelling ratio. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of the scaffolds showed porous architecture. Remarkably, the incorporation of HNC in HAP enhanced the cytocompatibility as well as ALP activity in comparison to pure HAP. Overall, these results suggested that halloysite nanoclay reinforced HAP scaffold could be an auspicious alternative for bone tissue regeneration.

    Abstract There has been a long history that chronic circadian disruption such as jet lag or shift work negatively affects brain and body physiology. Studies have shown that circadian misalignment act as a risk factor for developing anxiety and mood-related depression-like behavior. Till date, most studies focused on simulating jet lag in model animals under laboratory conditions by repeated phase advances or phase delay only, while the real-life conditions may differ. In the present study, adult male mice were subjected to simulated chronic jet lag (CJL) by alternately advancing and delaying the ambient light-dark (LD) cycle by 9 h every 2 days, thereby covering a total of 24 days. The effect of CJL was then examined for a range of stress and depression-related behavioral and physiological responses. The results showed that mice exposed to CJL exhibited depression-like behavior, such as anhedonia. In the open field and elevated plus maze test, CJL-exposed mice showed increased anxiety behavior compared to LD control. In addition, CJL-exposed mice showed an increased level of serum corticosterone and proinflammatory cytokine, TNF-α in both serum and hippocampus. Moreover, CJL-exposed mice exhibited a reduction in structural complexity of hippocampal CA1 neurons along with decreased expression of neurotrophic growth factors, BDNF and NGF in the hippocampus compared to LD control. Taken together, our findings suggest that simulated chronic jet lag adversely affects structural and functional complexity in hippocampal neurons along with interrelated endocrine and inflammatory responses, ultimately leading to stress, anxiety, and depression-like behavior in mice.

    Abstract It remains highly unclear and debatable whether combining radiotherapy (RT) and immune checkpoint blocker (ICB) therapy yields improved outcomes compared to either modality alone. Whereas some randomized data have shown improved outcomes, others have not. As a result of these conflicting data, it is essential to reconcile differences in the data and postulate reasons thereof. This work seeks to address these discrepancies, and uses the lessons learned from both positive and negative trials, including the most cutting-edge data available, in order to guide future clinical trial design and clarify the ideal/expected role of combinatorial therapy going forward. Because RT offers two distinct contributions (cytoreductive (local) effects & immune-stimulating (systemic) effects), RT should complement immunotherapy by addressing immunotherapy-resistant clones, and immunotherapy should complement RT by addressing RT-resistant or out-of-field clones. RT is not merely a single "drug", but rather a constellation of diverse "drugs" that can be varied based on dose regimens, previous systemic therapy regimens, number of irradiated sites, treatment intent/location/timing, tumor biology, and individual patient immunological circumstances. These factors are discussed as an important explanation for the discrepancies in results of various randomized trials in heterogeneous populations and clinical settings, and these discrepancies may continue until trials of more uniform circumstances are designed to use particular RT paradigms that meaningfully add value to systemic therapy.
