Clinical effectiveness of procalcitonin- or C-reactive protein-guided antibiotic discontinuation protocols for adult patients who are critically ill with sepsis: a rapid systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

Anaesthesia
Summary Introduction Antibiotics are a first‐line treatment for sepsis, with guidelines recommending a 7‐ to 10‐day course. Prolonged antibiotic use carries significant risks, prompting growing interest in using inflammatory biomarkers, such as procalcitonin or C‐reactive protein, to guide clinical decision‐making on the duration of antibiotic therapy ...

Legacies of past land use have a stronger effect on forest carbon exchange than future climate change in a temperate forest landscape [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2018
Forest ecosystems play an important role in the global climate system and are thus intensively discussed in the context of climate change mitigation. Over the past decades temperate forests were a carbon (C) sink to the atmosphere. However, it remains
