Abstract
This study demonstrates that heparin protects against septic mortality independent of its anticoagulant effect. This protective effect is associated with the inhibition of apoE-LDLR binding, diminished NKT proliferation and cytokine production, and hepatic dysfunction. These findings indicate a pote...

Abstract
A 6-F vascular sheath was used in the majority of cases [39 (3.2%) 7-F and 9 (0.7%) 8-F]. The device was applied more than once in the same femoral artery of 124 (10.2%) limbs during different angioplasty sessions. Overall hemostasis success was achieved in 1139 (93.9%) cases. In 237 (20.8%) of thos...

Abstract
Arterial blood sampling is subject to numerous pre-analytical errors, one of which is inadvertent venous blood sampling. Especially when assessing oxygenation and titrating ventilation, accidental venous blood sampling may lead to inappropriate respiratory care and repeated percutaneous punctures.

Abstract
Snakes are used in various investigations of the effects of their venom on human physiology. Blood sampling is frequently an important part of these investigations. The heart is the most commonly used venipuncture site in snakes because it yields a reasonably large sample. This column describes card...

Abstract
We report that caveolin-1, a major component of caveolae, is a critical survival factor of sepsis. We induced sepsis using a well established sepsis animal model, cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). CLP induced 67% fatality in caveolin-1 null mice, but only 27% fatality in wild type littermates (p =...

The "Chippendale" technic allows to reduce draining time from 12 days to 6 days. The incidence of chronic seroma is reduced by 50%. The dorsal wound healing seems also better thanks to tension reduction resulting from the quilting suture. CONCLUSION: The "Chippendale" technic is a quick, cheap and e...

Effects of soft tissue punch size on the healing of peri-implant tissue in flapless implant surgery.
Abstract
The results show that the size of the soft tissue punch plays an important role in achieving optimal healing. The findings support the use of a tissue punch slightly narrower than the implant itself to obtain better peri-implant tissue healing around flapless implants.

Abstract
We routinely perform a single subcostal lower pole access. In our opinion, when the skin incision is located into the four-sided space between 12thrib, spine muscles, iliac crest and posterior axillary line, the risk of most non-haemorrhagic complications may be reduced. When the needle is proceedin...

We observed the survival of the subjects. At 24 h post-CLP, we measured lung HSP70, phosphorylated heat shock factor-1 (HSF-1-p) and HMGB-1 expressions, NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity and ALI occurrence. We also measured serum HSP70, IL-6 and HMGB-1 concentrations. GLN improved survival during sepsi...
