Effects of gasoline on haematological parameters of gasoline station workers in Onitsha, Anambra State, Nigeria. by Anyiam, A.F. * , Obi, E. , Ifeanyichukwu, M.O. , Ilo Elochukwu, C.

“…The Red Blood Cell and White Blood Cell counts, Haemoglobin, MCH, MCHC and Packed Cells Volume were highest among group A workers and lowest among group C. These findings, just like in the previous one, also suggests that GSWs are highly exposed to toxic gasoline vapor, and reduced haematological parameters among the workers exposed for longer durations suggesting the presence of iron deficiency anaemia and leukocytopenia among these subjects which could consequently affect red blood cell production, functions as well as immunity.…”

Cardiac Arrest Induces Ischemic Long-Term Potentiation of Hippocampal CA1 Neurons That Occludes Physiological Long-Term Potentiation by James E. Orfila, Nicole McKinnon, Myriam Moreno, Guiying Deng, Nicholas Chalmers, Robert M. Dietz, Paco S. Herson, Nidia Quillinan

“…We used our murine cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CA/CPR) model to produce global brain ischemia and assess whether iLTP is induced in vivo, contributing to the functionally relevant impairment of pLTP. Adult male mice were subjected to CA/CPR, and slice electrophysiology was performed in the hippocampal CA1 region 7 or 30 days later. …”
