Machine Learning‐Based Prediction of Life‐Threatening Complications During Hemodialysis in Hospitalized Patients With Poor General Conditions

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
A machine learning model using predialysis data predicted sudden events during or after hemodialysis with high accuracy (auROC: 0.889). The key predictors included emergency hospitalization, recent surgery, high heart rate, low albumin levels, and high CRP.

Differential Impact of Polymyxin B Hemadsorption on Long‐Term Mortality in Septic Shock: A Retrospective Analysis of Intra‐Abdominal Versus Extra‐Abdominal Infections

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
In this single‐center retrospective cohort study, the use of PMX‐HA was significantly associated with a reduced risk of 1‐year mortality in patients with septic shock due to intra‐abdominal infection. In contrast, no significant association was observed between PMX‐HA use and 1‐year mortality risk in patients with septic shock caused by extra‐abdominal

Video‐Based Evaluation of Checklist Adherence on a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit: A Prospective Observational Study

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Successful procedural performance in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) depends on skill performance and preparation. Checklists are beneficial, and video reviewing enhances adherence to guidelines. This study assessed whether video recordings can be used to assess checklist deviations, the extent to which proceduralists (doctors from 1

Predictive value of soluble CD40L combined with APACHE II score in elderly patients with sepsis in the emergency department

BMC Anesthesiology
Background The prognostic performance of soluble CD40L (sCD40L) for illness severity in infectious diseases is rarely reported. We investigated the ability of sCD40L combined with Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score to ...
