Predicted indirectly recognizable HLA epitopes scores and clinical outcomes after haploidentical stem cell transplantation in pediatric patients with relapsed neuroblastoma by Eun Seop Seo, Eun Seop Seo, In Hwa Jeong, In Hwa Jeong, Hee Young Ju, Ju Kyung Hyun, Ji Won Lee, Keon Hee Yoo, Won Young Heo, Ki Woong Sung, Hee Won Cho, Eun-Suk Kang

“…Multivariable analysis confirmed that a higher combined PIRCHE-I and PIRCHE-II score was independently associated with improved OS (combined PIRCHE score HR 0.22, 95% CI 0.06-0.79, P = 0.021), and a higher PIRCHE-II score was significantly associated with reduced progression (HR 0.42, 95% CI 0.25-0.70, P < 0.001).ConclusionIn conclusion, higher PIRCHE-I and PIRCHE-II scores are linked to better survival outcomes and reduced complications in pediatric haplo-SCT neuroblastoma patients. …”

Dose-Dependent Hemodynamic, Biochemical, and Tissue Oxygen Effects of OC99 following Severe Oxygen Debt Produced by Hemorrhagic Shock in Dogs by William W. Muir, Carlos L. del Rio, Yukie Ueyama, Bradley L. Youngblood, Robert S. George, Carl W. Rausch, Billy S. H. Lau, Robert L. Hamlin

“…We determined the dose-dependent effects of OC99, a novel, stabilized hemoglobin-based oxygen-carrier, on hemodynamics, systemic and pulmonary artery pressures, surrogates of tissue oxygen debt (arterial lactate 7.2±0.1 mM/L and arterial base excess −17.9 ± 0.5 mM/L), and tissue oxygen tension (tPO2) in a dog model of controlled severe oxygen-debt from hemorrhagic shock. The dose/rate for OC99 was established from a pilot study conducted in six bled dogs. …”
