Dexamethasone Versus Placebo in Comatose Survivors of Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest: Study Protocol for a Multicenter Randomized Comparison Within the Danish Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest Trial (DANOHCA)

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 7, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The inflammatory response to whole‐body ischemia, as seen in comatose survivors after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Early high‐dose dexamethasone may dampen the inflammatory response, which may diminish secondary brain damage and other organ injury and decrease mortality.

Plasma procalcitonin in rheumatic diseases

, 2003
Data on the origin and biological function of procalcitonin, the pro-hormone of calcitonin, are scarce. Since this peptide can be induced in bacterial invasive infections, serum procalcitonin levels may be useful in differential diagnosis of systemic ...

Polymyxin B Intravenous Administration Strategy Guided by Minimum Inhibitory Concentration in Critically Ill Patients With Pulmonary Infection: Insights From PBPK Modeling

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
PBPK/PD modeling and clinical retrospective validation of intravenous polymyxin B in critically ill patients with pulmonary infection. ABSTRACT Intravenous polymyxin B (PMB) is widely used for treating drug‐resistant gram‐negative pneumonia, though its efficacy in pulmonary infections is considered limited.

Elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein combined with procalcitonin predicts high risk of contrast-induced nephropathy after percutaneous coronary intervention

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is common after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and always leads to a poor prognosis. Compared with conventional detection methods, either high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) or ...

Hypertransaminasemia Is a Marker of Severity in Children Hospitalized for Influenza

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Elevated transaminases have been associated with increased severity in adult influenza cases, but data in the pediatric population are limited. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence, clinical characteristics and prognostic value of elevated transaminases in children hospitalized for influenza.
