Predictors of Brain Infarction in Pediatric Patients During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
In 179 pediatric ECMO patients, brain infarction (BI) occurred in 28% and was linked to markedly higher 30‐day mortality. VA ECMO mode (vs. VV) and higher pre‐ECMO arterial lactate independently predicted BI, supporting standardized neuro‐monitoring and liberal early brain CT, especially for children on VA ECMO.

Abstract Ischemia‐reperfusion injury (IRI) is a prevalent condition that predominantly afflicts hospitalized patients, inducing acute kidney injury (AKI). In recent years, complement 5 (C5) and its anaphylatoxin receptor C5aR1 have been implicated in driving kidney IRI and loss of function.

Arterial embolism in a patient with pulmonary embolism and patent foramen ovale
Paradoxical embolization is an uncommon but devastating complication of pulmonary embolism and continues to be frequently missed. Although the prevalence of patent foramen ovale is 25% to 30%, the risk of paradoxical embolism is \u3c2% of all arterial ...
