Article Abstract
The technical difficulty of separating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from plasma proteins in human blood presents a significant hurdle in EV research, particularly during nano ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (UHPLC-MS/MS) analysis, where detecting "vesicular" proteins among abundant plasma proteins is challenging. Standardisation is a pressing issue in EV research, prompting collaborative global efforts to address it. While the MISEV guidelines offer valuable recommendations, unanswered questions remain, particularly regarding sample storage. We compared size exclusion chromatography (SEC) columns with pore sizes of 35 nm and 70 nm to identify fractions with minimal contaminating proteins and the highest concentration of small EVs (sEVs). Following column selection, we explored potential differences in the quality and quantity of sEVs isolated from platelet-free plasma (PFP) after long-term storage at -80 °C (>2.5 years) compared to freshly drawn blood. Our methodologically rigorous study indicates that prolonged storage, under correct storage and processing conditions, does not compromise sEV quality. Both columns effectively isolated vesicles, with the 70 nm column exhibiting a higher abundance of "vesicular" proteins. We propose a relatively rapid and moderately efficient protocol for obtaining a comparatively pure sEV fraction from plasma, facilitating sEV processing in clinical trials.

The analytical comparability of biologic products and their biosimilars, including higher-order structure (HOS) assessment, ensures product quality and is required for regulatory approval. In this study, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to evaluate the HOS of Humira (adalimumab) and its biosimilars under normal and photo-stressed conditions. Under normal conditions, 1D and 2D NMR spectra showed strong structural similarity among all products.

Assessment of Amplitude and Temporal Differences of Cerebral Oxygen Saturation in Response to Hypotension Across Multiple Cerebrovascular Territories During Shoulder Surgery.
J Neurosurg Anesthesiol

Department of Anesthesia and Perioperative Medicine, Western University.
Introduction: Current commercial cerebral oximeters only monitor the frontal lobes, however, some cerebrovascular territories may experience ischemia while others remain well perfused. This pilot study used a novel, high-density, dual-wavelength, time-resolved functional cerebral oximeter (Kernel Flow) with 2000 channels to assess the regional differences of cerebral oxygenation (StO2) in response to hypotension across different vascular territories during shoulder surgery in the beach chair position.
Methods: Twenty-seven adult patients were monitored, recording blood pressure, heart rate, regional cerebral oxygen saturation, and other vital parameters.
Epiduroscopy in spinal stenosis. Description of the procedure and safety measures to reduce complications.
Pain Manag
September 2025
Pain Management Unit, Hospital Universitario Quirónsalud Madrid, Madrid, Spain.
Aims: The aim of this observational study is to describe the use of epiduroscopy to decrease the enlargement of the ligamentum flavum (LF) in patients with spinal stenosis, as well as the selection of the appropriate patient and the safety measures that enhance procedural success.
Materials & Methods: We introduce the patient selection protocol, define the appropriate indication and the safety measures to use the epiduroscopy as a tool to decrease the size of the LF and increase space, reducing possible complications.
Results: Among patients included in the study, there were no cases of access difficulty or coccydynia, and one case of urinary incontinence occurred in a patient with Schizas grade D (very severe) stenosis.
