Clinical Value of Metagenomic Next‐Generation Sequencing Versus Conventional Methods in Diagnosing Cryptococcal Infection After Kidney Transplantation

open access: yesOrgan Medicine, EarlyView.
This retrospective study evaluated metagenomic next‑generation sequencing (mNGS) against conventional methods (India ink, culture, antigen) for diagnosing cryptococcal infection in 16 kidney transplant recipients. mNGS showed a significantly higher positivity rate (93.8% vs 62.5%, p = 0.031) and shorter turnaround time (24 vs. 120 h, p < 0.001).

Anticoagulation Strategies in Adults Undergoing Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In this meta‐analysis of 2 775 adult ECMO patients from non‐randomized studies, direct thrombin inhibitors and low‐molecular‐weight heparins demonstrated a favorable efficacy and safety profile over unfractionated heparin. These findings suggest them to be effective alternatives to unfractionated heparin, underscoring the urgent need for randomized ...

Long‐term stability of sinus complication management

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Maxillary sinus augmentation shows a low incidence of complications and high clinical success due to favorable biological conditions and typically transient issues. Most complications are intraoperative, such as Schneiderian membrane perforation or hemorrhage, and are often resolved immediately.

An Update on Invasive Fungal Infections in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Invasive fungal infections (IFI) remain a significant infection‐related complication in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs), the incidence of which has not changed overtime. With a focus on studies and data published after 2019, this narrative review provides an update on the epidemiology and prevention of IFIs in SOTRs and highlights ...
