Body Fluids
These fluids serve critical physiological functions, such as transporting nutrients, facilitating waste removal, and enabling proper organ and tissue function.
Analyzing the composition and characteristics of body fluids can provide valuable insights into an individual's health status and assist in the diagnosis and monitoring of various medical conditions.
Researchers often study body fluids to better understand the underlying mechanisms of disease, develop new diagnostic tools, and explore potential therapeutic interventions.
This area of study is crucial for advancing medical knowledge and improving patient outcomes.

For integration, we converted all abundance data to mole-based parts per million (PPM), whereby for MaxQB and ProteomicsDB, iBAQ (intensity based absolute quantification) was converted to PPM by
Duplicate samples and samples having <10 mapped genes were excluded from HIPED. This resulted in the definition of 771 proteomic samples (

Example 4
To evaluate the ability of hydroxyapatite formation by the bioceramic compositions, samples with a mean particle size of 1.5 μm were stored in a solution of simulated body fluid (SBF) pH 7.25 at 37° C. and evaluated at 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 20 days using the mass/volume ratio of 1.5 mg/mL. After 20 days the disks were washed with water and dried at 60° C. The amount of hydroxyapatite was determined by the phosphorus (P) content in the samples by dispersive energy X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. The mass percentage found is related to hydroxyapatite formation. The results are presented in Table 5.
While some embodiments are shown and described herein, one skilled in the art will appreciate that modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teachings.
Example 4
Bioactivity testing (ability to precipitate hydroxyapatite) was carried out on sample 2 using a simulated body fluid test.
This is an industry standard test to demonstrate that a material is bioactive. This test is widely accepted to demonstrate that a material which is bioactive in simulated body fluid would, once in the body, be able to form bone on its surface. This is an essential property for bone substitute materials.
The structure of the unreacted sample 2 shows silica spheres forming a bioactive aerogel structure.
This data demonstrates that the bone graft substitutes of the present invention are bioactive and exhibit low densities and high surface areas, compared to typically used bones graft substitutes.

Available serum creatinine levels from the earliest recorded value until the final follow-up time were obtained from medical records. The change in serum creatinine from peak values within 3 days before or after the IVC US until 4–5 days after the IVC US, in the absence of hemodialysis therapy, was used to assess response to post-IVC US volume management. A ≥ 20% decrease in serum creatinine from the peak value within 48–72 h of the therapeutic intervention [9 (link)], not resulting from hemodialysis therapy, was defined as hypovolemic- or hypervolemic-AKI [1 ]. An increasing serum creatinine or a decrease <20% from the peak value, or requirement for dialysis therapy, was defined as AKI not responsive to volume management [1 ,9 (link)].
