Using natural multi-function phytochemicals could be one of the best solutions for clean-label production. In this study, dairy ice creams were prepared containing 14% egg yolk and 0.1% of thymol (THY), trans-cinnamaldehyde (TC), menthol (MEN), or vanillin (VAN). Then, the physical, chemical, and structural characteristics were evaluated. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis (a rapid, chemical-free, and non-invasive tool) was carried out to evaluate the water distribution. A multivariate analysis was conducted among all studied variables. According to the results, the overrun of the MEN ice cream was significantly increased as compared to the control sample. The density was also reduced in the MEN sample. Meanwhile, the spreadability (%) of VAN was significantly increased after 6 min as compared to the control treatment. MRI analysis revealed that water distribution was significantly changed in the THY group. The firmness and viscosity of THY samples were significantly increased (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that viscosity index and consistency were the top parameters affected by THY. The authors concluded that THY and VAN are promising stabilizers for ice-cream clean production.

Abstract Background Prognosis of patients with acute heart failure (AHF) and different etiologies remains a challenging issue for the Cardiologist. Purpose We aimed to evaluate clinical and echocardiographic indexes and blood tests values of patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for AHF to test their capability to predict events at short-, medium- and long-term follow-up. Methods We retrospectively enrolled 830 patients who entered the ICU of our third-level hospital between 2010 and 2013 for AHF. Exclusion criteria included: active malignances, heart transplantation, patients with left ventricular assist device. We evaluated in each subject: cause of admission, medical history, chest congestion severity at admission, blood tests, echocardiographic parameters and administered drugs during in-hospital stay. Primary endpoints included: mortality rate at 30 days, 6 months and 5 years after dismission, days of ICU stay and cardiology ward stay. Indexes with statistical significance at univariate analysis, were then tested by multivariate analysis. Results The study population (average age 72.2±13 y) had an ejection fraction (EF) 36±12% at ICU admission. Best predictors of prognosis in the populations, after multivariate analysis, resulted to be: renal failure, EF, age, mitral regurgitation (MR) more than mild, use of non-invasive ventilation support during ICU stay, previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). With these indexes, we created a multi-parametric prognostic score composed by: 0.7*[age >76 years] + 1.4*[plasmatic creatinine >2mg/dl] + 0.8*[non-invasive mechanical ventilation] + 0.9*[previous stroke/TIA] + 0.8*[EF <30%] + + 0.7*[previous hospitalization for AHF] + 0.5*[moderate/severe MR]. According to the score, we stratified the population in 3 tertiles with increasing mortality risk: low if <1.5, medium if 1.5–3, high risk if >3 (Figure 1). At ROC curve analysis, the score showed a greater prognostic accuracy than each parameter (30 days AUC 0.75, 6 months AUC 0.78, 5 years AUC 0.79). Figure 1 Conclusions A combined clinical, humoral and echocardiographic score could represent a new tool in the prognostication of patients with AHF since the admission in ICU.

Enhanced Raman Scattering

Abstract Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) has become an invaluable tool for the identification of colorants in artworks, due to its enhanced sensitivity and ability to quench fluorescence interference compared to Raman spectroscopy. However, the application of SERS to artwork analysis is still limited by its inherent invasiveness and the need for extraction procedures. In this work non-invasive transparent SERS probes were fabricated by self-assembly of Ag nanoparticles into glass and PDMS surfaces and used for identification of dye content in artistic drawings. SERS measurements were performed directly on the selected analytical surfaces by laser back illumination through the SERS probe. The non-invasiveness of fabricated probes was tested by optical microscopy. It was found that Ag nanoparticle/glass probes left no Ag nanoparticle residue after four consecutive depositions on sacrificial surfaces, whereas Ag nanoparticle/PDMS composites could be deposited and subsequently peeled off the analytical surfaces leaving no contamination traces. The high conformability, flexibility and transparency of Ag nanoparticle/PDMS composites enabled good adhesion to the surface of analyzed artistic drawings and therefore the generation of in situ SERS spectra from artistic drawings. The use of this method allowed identification of main dye components in real artworks comprising a red BIC ballpoint drawing and a Japanese woodblock print.

Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy can provide high resolution, high speed, high sensitivity, and non-invasive imaging of specific biomolecules without labeling. In this review, we first introduce the principle of CARS microscopy, and then discuss its configuration, including that of the laser source and the multiplex CARS system. Finally, we introduce the applications of CARS in biomedicine and materials, and its future prospects.

Abstract Background: While acute severe asthma (ASA) is the leading cause of emergency department visits and the third cause of hospitalization in children younger than 18 years old, there is a lack of data regarding adult patients admitted in intensive care units (ICU) for ASA. We aimed to describe the evolutions in epidemiology, management, and outcomes of ASA in adult patients, over a period of twenty years in the Greater Paris area ICUs (CUB-Réa Database). Methods: Demographics, severity and supportive treatments were collected from the CUB-Réa Database. The primary endpoint was the prevalence of ASA by periods of 5 years. The secondary endpoints were in-ICU survival, in-hospital survival, use of mechanical ventilation including non-invasive and invasive and catecholamine. Multivariate analysis was performed to assess correlating factors of ICU Mortality. Results: Of the 475 357 ICU admissions from January 1997 to January 2016, 7049 were admitted for ASA with a decreasing prevalence over time, respectively 2.8%, 1.7%, 1.1%, and 1.1% of total ICU admissions (p <0.001). The median age was 46 years old [IQR: 25%-75%: 32-59], 3906 (55%) were female, the median SAPS II was 20 [IQR: 13-28], and 1501 (21%) had mechanical ventilation. Over time, age, the SAPSII and the Charlson Comorbidity Index tended to increase. The use of invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation increased (p < 0.001), whereas the use of catecholamine decreased (p <0.001). The in-ICU survival rate improved from 97% to 99% (p=0.008). In the multivariate analysis, factors associated with in-ICU mortality were SAPSII (p < 0.001), renal replacement therapy (p < 0.001), catecholamine (p < 0.001), cardiac arrest (p < 0.001), pneumothorax (p < 0.001), ARDS (p < 0.001), sepsis (p < 0.001) and IMV (p < 0.001). Conclusion: ICU admission for ASA remains uncommon and decreases over time. Despite an increasing severity of patients and the use of mechanical ventilation, the use of catecholamine decreases with high in-ICU survival rate which could be related to a better management of mechanical ventilation.
