    Abstract Neurodevelopmental outcomes research in children following extracorporeal membrane oxygenationis a complex and evolving field. From systematic reviews to multi-center prospective cohort studies, a variety of research endeavors in this domain have already been conducted. Recent attention has redirected the focus on biomarkers and imaging studies to help better understand the neurological, developmental, and behavioral effects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation on surviving children. This review provides an overview of major research in the field, ongoing and future studies, and a summary of lessons learned from these efforts.

    Abstract Neutrophils are innate immune cells that play critical functions during infections through diverse mechanisms. One such mechanism, the generation of extracellular traps (NETs), enables direct bacterial killing during infections. We recently reported that the activation of the non-canonical inflammasomes in neutrophils allows for the generation of NETs and is an important host defence mechanism in vivo in response to intracellular Gram-negative bacterium. This process is dependent on inflammatory caspases and the cell death effector Gasdermin D. Here, we describe a simple approach to study the functions of the non-canonical inflammasome in murine neutrophils using microscopy and cellular fragmentation assays.

  3. Article ; Online: Memory Problems in Children With Congenital Heart Disease: A Narrative Review.

    Abstract Introduction: Care for congenital heart diseases (CHD) has improved significantly over the past several decades, and children with CHD are now surviving into adulthood. Cognitive and behavioral problems affect children with CHD more than healthy peers. A review of performance on neuropsychological memory tasks has not been reported. We aimed to summarize the published literature on memory problems in people with CHD.
    Methods: We searched Pubmed, Medline, and PsycINFO from January 1, 1986 to March 22, 2022 to reflect modern care for people with CHD. Our inclusion criteria were randomized controlled trials or observational studies that included children with CHD older than age 3 years, which reported the results of at least 1 neuropsychological test of memory in the CHD group. Our exclusion criteria were studies that included heart transplant recipients and studies that included children who required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
    Results: Thirty-one studies that met our inclusion criteria and avoided exclusion criteria were included in this review. Several studies reported deficits in the subdomains of short-term and long-term memory and visual and verbal memory, though we found substantial heterogeneity across studies. The most likely subdomain to be affected in children with CHD appears to be short-term visual memory.
    Conclusions: There is likely an increased risk of memory problems for children and adults with CHD. We were unable to quantify the risk of memory problems due to the heterogeneity of published studies. Future research should make efforts to account for confounding variables and standardize outcome measures.

    Abstract Caspase-1 location in cells has been studied with fluorochrome-labeled inhibitors of caspase-1 (FLICA reagents). We report that FLICA reagents have limited cell-membrane permeability. This impacts experimental design as cells with intact membranes, including caspase-1 knockout cells, are not appropriate controls for cells with inflammasome-induced gasdermin D membrane pores.

    Abstract A sequential extraction process has been designed for valorizing globe artichoke plant residues and waste (heads, leaves, stalks, and roots left in the field) by means of green extraction techniques according to a biorefinery approach. We investigated two cascading extractions based on microwave-assisted extractions (MAE) and green solvents (water and ethanol) that have been optimized for varying temperature, solvent and extraction time. In the first step, phenols were extracted with yields that ranged between 6.94 mg g

    Abstract In the spring of 2020, COVID-19 spread rapidly through a long-term care facility in Massachusetts. 74 (of 134 total) residents tested positive, with 72 testing positive in the first three weeks of the outbreak. Fatigue, anorexia, myalgia, and confusion were the most common symptoms. 21 residents (28%) testing positive subsequently died.

    Abstract Dibenzomethanopentacene (DBMP) is shown to be a useful structural component for making Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIMs) with promise for making efficient membranes for gas separations. DBMP-based monomers for PIMs are readily prepared using a Diels-Alder reaction between 2,3-dimethoxyanthracene and norbornadiene as the key synthetic step. Compared to date for the archetypal PIM-1, the incorporation of DBMP simultaneously enhances both gas permeability and the ideal selectivity for one gas over another. Hence, both ideal and mixed gas permeability data for DBMP-rich co-polymers and an amidoxime modified PIM are close to the current Robeson upper bounds, which define the state-of-the-art for the trade-off between permeability and selectivity, for several important gas pairs. Furthermore, long-term studies (over ≈3 years) reveal that the reduction in gas permeabilities on ageing is less for DBMP-containing PIMs relative to that for other high performing PIMs, which is an attractive property for the fabrication of membranes for efficient gas separations.

    Abstract Background and aims: Intestinal ultrasonography (IUS) is challenging to learn. This prospective study examined how the accuracy of IUS increases with operator experience ("learning curve") and if prior abdominal ultrasound experience facilitates the learning process.
    Methods: The study included two trainees with limited abdominal ultrasound experience (< 50 exams) and two with extensive experience (> 500 exams). Each trainee performed 99 examinations and reported four IUS findings. An expert sonographer repeated the exam, and concordance (k) between the expert and trainees was assessed in three consecutive testing periods of 33 exams each.
    Results: A progressive improvement in concordance was observed for all IUS findings from Period 1 to Period 3, overall and for both groups of trainees, although those with experience in abdominal ultrasound had faster learning curves. The minimum number of examinations required to achieve concordance with the expert operator for detecting increased bowel wall thickness was 84 and detecting bowel dilatation was 79. However, a minimum of 97 examinations was necessary to achieve concordance for detecting intra-abdominal complications, considered an advanced IUS competence.
    Conclusion: Basic competence in IUS can be acquired with relatively few examinations, while advanced competence requires more extensive training, particularly for gastroenterologists without abdominal ultrasound experience.

    Abstract Recent studies identified the presence of a male polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), which mainly affects men whose female relatives are afflicted with PCOS, caused by genes responsible for the susceptibility of this syndrome in women. Similar hormonal, metabolic, and clinical alterations occurring in PCOS women have also been reported in their male relatives, suggesting a association between the male and female forms of the syndrome. Although the remarkable clinical manifestation of the male equivalent PCOS is diagnosed by the early-onset androgenetic alopecia, character-ized by hair recession, pronounced hypertrichosis, insulin resistance, biochemical and hormonal abnormalities, the hormonal/metabolic profile is still controversial. Men affected by early-onset androgenetic alopecia (AGA) are at risk of developing hyperinsulinemia, insulin-resistance, dyslipidaemia, and cardiovascular diseases. However, there is no consensus on the association of male equivalent PCOS with hypertension and obesity. Moreover, reduced levels of sex hormone-binding globulin have been detected in these male patients, accompanied by increased free androgens. Conversely, literature reported lower concentrations of testosterone in male equivalent PCOS when compared with the normal range, indicating a crucial role for the conversion of cortical androgens. Finally, further studies are warranted to investigate a possible link among AGA, metabolic/hormonal alterations, and acne. Our study assessed the hormo-nal, metabolic and clinical aspects of male equivalent PCOS syndrome reported in the literature to evaluate similar and divergent elements involved in the female version of the syndrome.
