    Title translation Analysis with viscoelastic hemostatic assays - a guide.
    Abstract Viscoelastic hemostasis analyses (VHA) are a complement in the evaluation of hemostasis in patients with major bleeding. The analysis measures viscoelastic changes in whole blood and the results give an overview of several components of hemostasis. VHA can be used to optimize fibrinogen levels, platelet and plasma substitution. The main clinical evidence supporting this strategy is in trauma, obstetric bleeding, heart and liver surgery, where algorithms based on VHA results facilitate individualized therapy. VHA measurement is of limited value to exclude treatment with anticoagulants and platelet inhibitors. Quality control aspects are also more cumbersome since whole blood with limited sustainability is used. Newer, more automated versions of the instruments have increased the reproducibility. The main advantage of VHA is the fast turn-around time and their role in guiding treatment in an emergency situation with bleeding.

    Abstract Introduction: Intravascular fluids administered to patients may influence hemostasis. In patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, the heart-lung machine is primed with 1300 ml of fluid. We assessed postoperative coagulation and platelet function in patients randomized to two different priming solutions, one colloid-based (dextran 40) and one crystalloid-based.
    Materials and methods: Eighty-four elective cardiac surgery patients were randomized to either a dextran-based prime or Ringer's acetate with added mannitol. Blood samples were collected before, and 2 and 24 h after cardiopulmonary bypass. Coagulation was assessed by standard coagulation tests and rotational thromboelastometry. Platelet function was assessed with impedance aggregometry. Bleeding volumes and transfusion requirements were recorded.
    Results: Comparing the groups 2 h after bypass, the dextran group showed lower hemoglobin concentration, hematocrit, platelet count, and fibrinogen concentration, and higher INR and aPTT, as well as longer clot formation time (+41 ± 21 % vs. +8 ± 18 %, p < 0.001) and a larger reduction in fibrinogen-dependent clot strength (-37 ± 12 % vs. -7 ± 20 %, p < 0.001). Adenosine diphosphate-dependent platelet activation was reduced in the dextran group but not in the crystalloid group 2 h after bypass (-14 ± 29 % vs. -1 ± 41 %, p = 0.041). No significant between-group differences in hemostatic variables remained after 24 h, and no significant differences in perioperative bleeding volumes, re-explorations for bleeding, or transfusion rates were observed.
    Conclusions: Compared to a crystalloid solution, a dextran-based prime had measurable negative impact on hemostatic variables but no detectable increase in bleeding volume or transfusion requirements in cardiac surgery patients.

    Abstract We report on the low-energy electron and fast neutron irradiated 4H-SiC studied by deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) and Laplace DLTS. Irradiations introduced two defects, Ec-0.4eV and Ec-0.7eV. They were previously assigned to carbon interstitial (Ci) labeled as EH1/3 and silicon-vacancy (VSi) labeled as S1/2, for the low-energy electron and fast neutron irradiation, respectively. This work demonstrates how Laplace DLTS can be used as a useful tool for distinguishing the EH1 and S1 defects. We show that EH1 consists of a single emission line arising from the Ci(h), while S1 has two emission lines arising from the VSi(h) and VSi(k) lattice sites.

    Abstract Ionizing radiation has been identified as an option for sterilization of disposable filtering facepiece respirators in situations where the production of the respirators cannot keep up with demand. Gamma radiation and high energy electrons penetrate deeply into the material and can be used to sterilize large batches of masks within a short time period. In relation to reports that sterilization by ionizing radiation reduces filtration efficiency of polypropylene membrane filters on account of static charge loss, we have demonstrated that both gamma and electron beam irradiation can be used for sterilization, provided that the respirators are recharged afterwards.

    Abstract The European Nuclear Experimental Educational Platform – ENEEP is currently being established by five European educational and research organizations in the framework of a Horizon 2020 project, initiated in 2019. The ENEEP partner institutions are the Jožef Stefan Institute (JSI, Slovenia), the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava (STU, Slovak Republic), the Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU, Czech Republic), Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien, Austria) and the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME, Hungary). ENEEP is intended as an open educational platform, offering experimental hands-on education activities at the ENEEP partner facilities. ENEEP education activities will be offered in different formats (group and individual) and are targeted at university students at all educational levels and young professionals in the nuclear field. This paper gives an overview of the ENEEP project activities and the progress achieved thus far, highlighting the experimental capabilities which will be offered. In the first implementation phase, ENEEP will be based on a comprehensive set of experiments comprising the basics in Reactor Physics and Nuclear Engineering curricula, as well as more specific experiments focusing on particular aspects – investigated phenomena, types and working principles of detectors, etc. Subsequently, novel education activities will be introduced and implemented in ENEEP, following scientific development in nuclear science and technology and nuclear instrumentation detectors, stemming from research activities. Attention will be devoted to the development and optimization of remote education capabilities at the ENEEP partner institutions, of particular relevance during the current Covid-19 pandemic, which is responsible for major changes in education activities worldwide.

    Abstract The calculation of axial neutron flux distributions with the MCNP code at the JSI TRIGA Mark II reactor has been validated with experimental measurements of the (197)Au(n,γ)(198)Au reaction rate. The calculated absolute reaction rate values, scaled according to the reactor power and corrected for the flux redistribution effect, are in good agreement with the experimental results. The effect of different cross-section libraries on the calculations has been investigated and shown to be minor.
