High procalcitonin level is related to blood stream infections, gram-negative pathogens, and ICU admission in infections of adult febrile cancer patients.
Journal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute
May 10, 2025
BACKGROUND: Blood stream infection (BSI) represent a life-threatening condition. Thus, we aimed to investigate the role of procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) tests in adult febrile patients with BSI and other clinical infections in hosp...
Reduced blood EPAC1 protein levels as a marker of severe coronary artery disease: the role of hypoxic foam cell-transformed smooth muscle cells.
Journal of translational medicine
May 9, 2025
BACKGROUND: Vascular smooth muscle cells loaded with cholesterol (foam-VSMCs) play a crucial role in the progression of human atherosclerosis. Exchange Protein Directly Activated by cAMP 1 (EPAC1) is a critical protein in the regulation of vascular t...
Splenic and portal venous flow associated with frailty and sarcopenia in older outpatients with cardiovascular disease.
BMC geriatrics
May 9, 2025
BACKGROUND: Older patients with cardiovascular disease often experience frailty and sarcopenia. We evaluated whether a reduced blood flow in the splenic and portal vein is associated with frailty and sarcopenia in older patients with cardiovascular d...
Water intake, hydration status and cognitive functions in older adults - a pilot study.
European journal of nutrition
May 9, 2025
PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the relationship between the hydration status and cognitive functioning of older adults. The novelty of the study was the simultaneous use of several indicators of hydration status, including plasma and urine osmol...
Improving lower-extremity artery depiction and diagnostic confidence using dual-energy technique and popliteal artery monitoring in dual-low dose CT angiography.
Scientific reports
May 9, 2025
To assess the utility of dual-energy CT scanning (DECTs) with popliteal artery (PA) monitoring in dual low-dose (radiation and contrast) lower-extremity CT angiography (LE-CTA). 135 patients undergoing LE-CTA were prospectively included and divided i...
A correlational study of plasma galectin-3 as a potential predictive marker of postoperative delirium in patients with acute aortic dissection.
Scientific reports
May 8, 2025
This study aimed to demonstrate whether plasma galectin-3 could predict the development of postoperative delirium (POD) in patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD). Prospective, observational study. Cardiac surgery intensive care unit. Consecutive...
Promethazine for nausea and vomiting prevention after gynaecological laparoscopic surgery: A randomized controlled trial.
Scientific reports
May 8, 2025
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) represent significant concerns for patients undergoing surgical procedures, as these symptoms greatly impact their postoperative experience. Among female patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery, the incidence...
Physiological comparison of noninvasive ventilation and high-flow nasal oxygen on inspiratory efforts and tidal volumes after extubation: a randomized crossover trial.
Critical care (London, England)
May 8, 2025
BACKGROUND: Extubation failure leading to reintubation is associated with high mortality. In patients at high-risk of extubation failure, clinical practice guidelines recommend prophylactic non-invasive ventilation (NIV) over high-flow nasal oxygen (...
The impact of a simple positioning aid device on the diagnostic performance of thyroid cancer in CT scans: a randomized controlled trial.
Cancer imaging : the official publication of the International Cancer Imaging Society
May 8, 2025
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of a simple positioning aid device in neck CT scans for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer, with a focus on its influence on image quality and diagnostic accuracy.
Step up to triple therapy versus switch to dual bronchodilator therapy in patients with COPD on an inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β-agonist: post-hoc analyses of KRONOS.
Respiratory research
May 8, 2025
BACKGROUND: In people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β-agonist (ICS/LABA) therapy, the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) recommends stepping up to ICS/long-acting mu...
