Immune Modulatory Therapy for Severe Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in a Patient With Mitochondrial Complex I Deficiency: A Case Report

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dengue virus (DENV) poses a serious global health challenge, particularly in cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Patients with preexisting mitochondrial disorders may be at increased risk for complications due to the specific impact of DENV on mitochondrial‐dependent cellular processes and immune function.

NONINVASIVE MONITORING IN THE PEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2001
The best ICU monitors are physicians and nurses, who integrate all of the physiologic parameters of patients with the known pathophysiology of the disease process. Over-reliance on raw electronic data, with their inherent errors, jeopardizes the safe and efficient care of patients.
