Limited effect of patient and disease characteristics on compliance with hospital antimicrobial guidelines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Objective: Physicians frequently deviate from guidelines that promote prudent use of antimicrobials. We explored to what extent patient and disease characteristics were associated with compliance with guideline recommendations for three common infections.

NS1‐Induced PARP1 Phase Transitions Prolongs Host Transcriptional Pausing to Promote Influenza A Virus Replication

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
After IAV infection, NS1 induces PARP1 phase transition, reducing molecular mobility in condensates, prolonging host transcriptional pause, aiding RdRp cap snatching, and promoting viral transcription. ABSTRACT Influenza A virus (IAV) commandeers host transcriptional machinery to replicate, but mechanisms remain elusive.

LAPTM5 Downregulation‐Driven VAMP8 Phosphorylation Impairs Autophagosome‐Lysosome Fusion and Aggravates Septic Acute Lung Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
LAPTM5 functions as a critical molecular scaffold bridging PGAM5 and VAMP to facilitate PGAM5‐mediated dephosphorylation of VAMP8. This cascade promotes autophagosome‐lysosome fusion, restores impaired autophagic flux, and clears damaged mitochondria, thereby mitigating cellular oxidative stress and systemic inflammation.

Impact of Postoperative Infectious Complications on Long‐Term Survival After Curative Resection for Colorectal Cancer: A Multicenter Study in the Minimally Invasive Era

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Postoperative infectious complications (PICs) have been associated with poor long‐term outcomes after colorectal cancer surgery, but evidence in the modern minimally invasive era remains limited. In this multicenter cohort of 5377 patients undergoing curative resection, PICs were independently associated with worse overall survival and relapse‐free ...

Current Status and Future Perspectives of Robotic Surgery for Esophagogastric Cancer in Asia

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Robotic‐assisted surgery (RAS) has moved from an experimental adjunct to an increasingly established component of gastrointestinal (GI) oncological practice in parts of Asia, a region that carries a disproportionately high burden of gastric and esophageal cancer. Asian surgeons have been among the earliest and most prolific contributors to the

Oropharyngeal irrigation to prevent ventilator-associated-pneumonia: Comparing potassium permangenate with chlorhexidine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2018
Background: Pneumonia is one of the most common hospital-acquired infections among bedridden patients in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). Colonization of mouth and pharynx by pathogenic bacteria and their aspiration into the lower respiratory tract is an ...

Clinical utility of pharyngeal high‐resolution manometry with impedance for upper esophageal sphincter dysfunction in gastroenterology

open access: yesAdvances in Digestive Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Pharyngeal high‐resolution manometry with impedance (P‐HRM‐I) is an established assessment method used to evaluate pharyngeal swallowing. It provides precise quantification of swallowing biomechanics that enable the detection of alterations in swallowing physiology.

Comparison of CATs, CURB-65 and PMEWS as triage tools in pandemic influenza admissions to UK hospitals: case control analysis using retrospective data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Triage tools have an important role in pandemics to identify those most likely to benefit from higher levels of care. We compared Community Assessment Tools (CATs), the CURB-65 score, and the Pandemic Medical Early Warning Score (PMEWS); to predict ...

Phase II Study of Posttransplant Cyclophosphamide‐Based Graft‐Versus‐Host Disease Prophylaxis After HLA‐Mismatched Unrelated Donor Reduced Intensity Transplantation: Results From the ACCESS Trial Expansion Cohort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) to prevent graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD) improves outcomes in recipients of HLA mismatched unrelated donor (MMUD) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo HCT). Outcomes of MMUD HCT using PTCy in patients requiring reduced intensity or non‐myeloablative conditioning (RIC/NMA) are not well ...

Hospital-Acquired Pneumonia

open access: yes, 2022
Pneumonia acquired during hospitalization is called nosocomial pneumonia (NP). Nosocomial pneumonia is divided into two types. Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) refers to hospital-acquired pneumonia, whereas ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) refers to ventilator-associated pneumonia. Most clinical literature stresses VAP’s importance and associated
