Systematic review of interventions to improve appropriate use and outcomes associated with do-not-attempt-cardiopulmonary-resuscitation decisions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The treatment for a cardiac arrest, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), may be lifesaving following an acute, potentially reversible illness. Yet this treatment is unlikely to be effective if cardiac arrest occurs as part of the dying process towards ...

Predicting sepsis in-hospital mortality with machine learning: a multi-center study using clinical and inflammatory biomarkers

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research
Background This study aimed to develop and validate an interpretable machine-learning model that utilizes clinical features and inflammatory biomarkers to predict the risk of in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients suffering from sepsis. Methods

Gut microbial immunometabolic pathways associated with cardiac arrest risk: genetic evidence and exploratory fecal microbiome profiling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
BackgroundCardiac arrest remains difficult to predict, and upstream biological determinants are poorly defined. Gut microbiota can influence host metabolism, immunity and inflammation, but their relevance to cardiac arrest risk remains unclear.MethodsWe ...

Machine learning-based prediction model of acute kidney injury in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2023
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) can make cases of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) more complex, and the combination of the two can significantly worsen the prognosis.

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1095-1112, April 2025.
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

Silence around SUDEP and its impact on caregivers of individuals with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies: An international survey

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of epilepsy‐related mortality, particularly in individuals with Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies (DEEs). The goal of this work is to assess SUDEP‐related knowledge, information practices, emotional and psychological impact, and the use of preventive measures

Gallic Acid Attenuates Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension and Vascular Dysfunction by Inhibiting the Degradation of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Hypertension is a major cause of heart attack and stroke. Our recent study revealed that gallic acid (GA) exerts protective effects on pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction.

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy: An Italian expert consensus statement on risk, mechanisms, prevention, and therapeutic strategies

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a leading cause of premature mortality in people with epilepsy, particularly in those with tonic–clonic seizures (TCSs), developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs), and drug‐resistant epilepsy.

U-shaped correlation of lymphocyte count with all-cause hospital mortality in sepsis and septic shock patients: a MIMIC-IV and eICU-CRD database study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine
Background In sepsis, the relationship between lymphocyte counts and patient outcomes is complex. Lymphocytopenia and lymphocytosis significantly influence survival, illustrating the dual functionality of lymphocytes in responding to infections.
