N‐acetylcysteine for non‐paracetamol‐induced acute liver failure in children: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Non‐surgical treatment of acute liver failure (ALF) is primarily supportive and depends on the underlying cause. While N‐acetylcysteine (NAC) is proven effective in paracetamol‐induced ALF, its potential benefits in non‐paracetamol ALF for paediatric patients remain unclear.

[Comparison of point of care capillary international normalized ratio (INR) with INR measured in venous samples].

Revista medica de Chile, 2020
INR is used to monitor the treatment with vitamin K antagonists. A strategy to reduce waiting times for sampling is to measure INR in a capillary sample using a portable point of care (POC) type coagulometer.To evaluate the correlation of CoaguChek Pro II™, Xprecia™ and microINR™ with venous INR measured at the clinical laboratory and their ease of use.
