Predicting Long-Term Complications After Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Disease
Sepsis is the most commonly identified risk factor for acute kidney injury (AKI), according to...
Sepsis
Patterns of vascular response immediately after passive mobilization in patients with sepsis: an observational transversal study.
Sepsis is a serious organ dysfunction leading to endothelial damage in critical patients. Physiologically, there is an augment of vascular diameter in response to increased vascular blood flow and shear stress stimulus. However,...
Very preterm infants admitted to a tertiary neonatal unit in central Vietnam showed poor postnatal growth.
We aimed to evaluate the postnatal growth of very preterm infants.This was a cross-sectional observational study of neonates born before 32 weeks of gestation and admitted to the neonatal unit at Da Nang Hospital for Women and...
Cardiac steroid ouabain transcriptionally increases human leukocyte antigen DR expression on monocytes.
Sepsis is a life-threatening disease characterized by acute multiple organ dysfunction and immunosuppression that is also called as immunoparalysis. Increasing evidence suggests that immunoparalysis largely contributes to the...
Interleukin-35 inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced endothelial cell activation by downregulating inflammation and apoptosis.
Inflammation is an essential factor contributing to sepsis-induced endothelial cell (EC) activation. Interleukin-35 (IL-35) is an anti-inflammatory/immunosuppressive cytokine that exerts protective effects on many inflammatory...
Amyand’s hernia a case report.
Amyand’s hernia (AH) is a form of inguinal hernia which is consider as very rare and this type of hernia occurred up to 1% of all inguinal hernia cases. In this type of inguinal hernia, the content of hernia sac is...
Risk factors of surgical mortality in patients with Clostridium difficile colitis. A novel scoring system.
The purpose of the study is to identify the risk factors of mortality and develop a risk scoring system in patients who underwent colectomy due to Clostridium difficile colitis (CD-C).Patient information was extracted using the...
Combination of hepcidin with neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin for prediction of the development of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury.
The early prediction of the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients with sepsis would facilitate early effective intervention. Recently, interest has focused on the biomarkers for AKI-linked iron...
Diabetes & Infection-Related Hospitalization
“Diabetes is widely thought to increase susceptibility to infection by impairing neutrophil...
Lipopolysaccharide lipid A: A promising molecule for new immunity-based therapies and antibiotics.
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are the main components of the external leaflet of the Gram-negative outer membrane and consist of three different moieties: lipid A, core oligosaccharide, and O-polysaccharide. The lipid A is a...
Cefiderocol: A Review in Serious Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections.
Intravenous cefiderocol (Fetroja; Fetcroja) is the first siderophore cephalosporin approved for the treatment of adults with serious Gram-negative bacterial infections. Cefiderocol is stable against all four Ambler classes of...
Cecal perforation secondary to fungal necrotizing enterocolitis in a premature neonate.
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains one of the most critical gastrointestinal comorbidities associated with neonatal prematurity and low birth weight. Despite extensive research and innovations for successful management, NEC...
