Background And Objectives: The US Food and Drug Administration guidance for cold-stored platelets (CSPs) permits storage of apheresis platelets at 1-6°C for ≤14 days. During a pilot programme, CSPs were evaluated in a large US blood centre over a 10-month period (September 2023 to July 2024) to better understand the formation of aggregates under routine use.

Materials And Methods: Platelets collected in 100% plasma were moved into cold storage within 4 h of collection and shipped to local hospitals.

Background: Choosing the appropriate implants for reconstruction in revision TKA is essential for long-term fixation. While cones and augments are routinely utilized to address tibial defects, the effect of augment location and size on the biomechanical stability of revision TKA constructs and the indications for the use of metaphyseal cones are not known.

Questions/purposes: Is the risk of cement-implant debonding of revision TKA constructs impacted by the thickness and location (medial versus bicompartmental) of tibial augments and the presence of metaphyseal cones during (1) a demanding daily activity like stair ascent and (2) torsional loads?

Methods: Under institutional review board approval, we developed patient-specific finite-element models of revision TKA from four patients (three males and one female, ages 50 to 80 years, BMI 27 to 37 kg/m2) who underwent two-stage revision and had a CT scan with no metal artifact after first-stage implant removal.

This concept analysis explores the nature of safe sex among adolescents, offering insights to empower them in making informed sexual decisions. Using Walker and Avant's methodological framework and a scoping review approach, we conducted an extensive literature search in PubMed, SCOPUS, CINAHL-Complete, and Thai Journal Online, identifying 1414 records. After duplicate removal, 1288 records were screened, with 43 studies included in the final review.

This study aims at the establishment of a universally applicable etching methodology to unveil the nanoscale crystalline structure of the matrix resin in fiber reinforced thermoplastic (FRTP) composites scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The crystalline structure hierarchically consists of crystalline texture, spherulite and lamella. The details of these structures are key parameters to understand the relationship with the mechanical properties of the material for the advancement.

Rationale: Sepsis following hysteroscopy is an rare complication, with current evidence suggesting that routine prophylactic antibiotic administration may not be warranted. However, this does not imply that we should disregard vigilance regarding the potential occurrence of severe infections post-hysteroscopy.

Patient Concerns: A 27-year-old female underwent hysteroscopic resection of retained products of conception after incomplete medical abortion.
