The study of stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) aims to further investigate the relationship between chronic glucose factors and adverse clinical events, particularly cardiovascular outcomes, in critically ill patients. However, prior research has not ...
OBJECTIVE: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is estimated to be prevalent in 10% of ICU patients and results in high mortality rates of up to 45%. The recognition of ARDS can be complex and is often delayed or missed entirely. Recognition of...

Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has evolved from a simple tool for fluid localization to a comprehensive modality for hemodynamic assessment and real-time clinical decision-making. The Bedside Lung Ultrasound in Emergency (BLUE) protocol enables cli...
INTRODUCTION: Post-intensive care syndrome affects up to 70% of adult intensive care unit (ICU) survivors, with ICU-acquired weakness contributing substantially to long-term disability. Despite evidence supporting early and structured rehabilitation ...
Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a vital intervention for critically ill patients with severe acute kidney injury, yet no standardized criteria exist to determine the optimal time for its discontinuation. We developed and validated mach...
UNLABELLED: Large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT are being explored as clinical decision support tools, but their reliability in pediatric acute care remains uncertain. This pilot study assessed ChatGPT-4.0's performance in the early management ...
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major cardiovascular issue in critically ill patients, linked to elevated mortality rates. The Stress Hyperglycemia Ratio (SHR), a novel metric of glucose control, has shown promise in predicting adverse outc...
In critically ill patients, a discrepancy frequently exists between percutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO₂) and arterial blood oxygen saturation (SaO₂), which can lead to potential hypoxemia being overlooked. The aim of this study was to explore the fa...
Severe COVID-19 often progresses to critical illness, requiring accurate prognostic biomarkers. Lactate-to-albumin ratio (LAR) has been proposed as a novel indicator to estimate the likelihood of death. Using data from the MIMIC database, this retros...
BACKGROUND: Sepsis is a severe and frequent complication among ischemic stroke patients during hospitalization. The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), as metabolism-related markers, are closely linked to inflammation. However, their relationship with...
