We investigated the effect of rapid head cooling on 96-hr neurologic outcomes and survival by heart rate variability analysis in a pig model of prolonged cardiac arrest. Prospective randomized controlled animal study. University-affiliated research laboratory....

We conclude about the exposure levels that there is strong evidence that styrene causes acute irritation of eyes and respiratory tract above 25 ppm, genotoxic effects above 10 ppm, and persistent nervous system effects with for instance reduced psychological performance, colour discrimination and he...

To explore the relationship between intraoperative regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO(2)) measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and neurodevelopmental outcome in children after cardiac surgery. Cross-sectional neurodevelopmental evaluation at 2 years of...

A potential cause of such emergent issues as cardiac arrhythmias, hypotension, and fluid and electrolyte shifts, accidental hypothermia can be deadly, is common among trauma patients, and is often difficult to recognize. The author discusses predisposing conditions, the classic prese...

We illustrate these roles with a number of specific miRNAs that act during distinct steps of neural development. We further discuss specific aspects of miRNA function that make these regulators particularly suited to provide the robustness and complexity that are essential for the dynamic nature of...

We summarize and discuss the growing body of literature that describe a role for ROS signaling in neuronal development....

We review the concept of molecules of keystone significance, including examples of how saxitoxin and tetrodotoxin can shape the organization and dynamics of marine and riparian communities, respectively. We also describe the current status and future directions of a topic of interest to our research...
