Abstract

This monocentric prospective study was conducted to determine if tissue oxygen saturation measured non invasively over masseter muscle site (Masseter-StO2) can predict the central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) level in severe sepsis and septic shock. Sixteen consecutive patients with severe sepsis (n = 10) or septic shock (n = 6) were included in this study. ScvO2 was measured on blood samples taken from the superior vena cava via the distal line of a central venous catheter. Masseter-StO2 was measured with a 25 mm depth infrared probe, applied and attached to the skin using transparent adhesive shields. Fifty-seven pairs of measures were obtained. Mean ScvO2 was 76.5% (median 81, standard deviation 15, range [14-94]). Twenty percent of the ScvO2 measures were lower than 70%. Seven out of 16 patients had at least one measure of 70% or less. Mean Masseter-StO2 was 81% (median 91, standard deviation 18, range [29-98]). We found a significant association between ScvO2 and Masseter-StO2 (correlation coefficient 0.65, P < 0.01), however agreement was moderate. In patients with severe sepsis or septic shock, non invasive recording of Masseter-StO2 was significantly associated with ScvO2 Further studies are required to determine th...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
