On the second day of admission, the patient experienced recurrent hypoglycemia, as indicated by a finger stick blood glucose reading of 39, which was successfully corrected with 50% glucose and D5RL drip. Nevertheless, two hours later, the BG level dropped to less than 20. Despite this, the...
pinocytic vesicles, and theircell junctionsare sealed with fasciae occludentes, so carrier-mediated transport is required for passage of amino acids, glucose,nucleosides, and purines. Although endothelial cells regulate the blood-brain barrier, astrocytes also have been shown to exert some influence...
Capillary blood sampling is a medical procedure aimed at assisting in patient diagnosis, management and treatment, and is increasingly used worldwide, in part because of the increasing availability of point-of-care testing. It is also frequently used to obtain small blood volumes for laboratory test...

The capillary tube is provided with a colored mark at the lower end, up to which it is to be filled with blood or serum for the test. The mark is determined by the to-be-taken liquid measure and is defined by the internal diameter of the capillary tube, the utilized carrier material ...

However, regeneration or replacement of the primary column after a few injections may be required for fluids with a large amount of proteins (for instance, plasma or blood) due to the irreversible adsorption of the proteins to the stationary phase, or to the clogging of the pre-column. In ...
For patients who need regular monitoring of blood, such a pro- cedure is highly inconvenient due to the high volume of sample blood and transportation time required (to the place where the setup is installed). For example, in the case of blood glucose monitoring (BGM) in acute diabetic ...
The analysis of finger stick samples would be a great improvement over venous whole blood, and microneedles, which pierce the skin without inflicting pain, would be even more interesting [56, 57]. The latter have been used, for example, to sample interstitial fluid from the skin for glucose ...
They found transcripts corresponding to all 69 predicted SVV open reading frames (ORFs). Several to several hundred of copies for ORFs could be detected. Virus gene transcription, not only during primary infection, but also during latency and reactivation, could also be analyzed. These results ...
