Journal ArticleDOI

A meta-analysis of clinical predictors for renal recovery and overall mortality in acute kidney injury requiring continuous renal replacement therapy.

TL;DR: Urine output at CRRT discontinuation, lower initial SOFA score, and lower serum creatinine levels atCRRT initiation were associated with higher likelihood of renal recovery, and increasing age and the presence of sepsis was associated with increased overall mortality from AKI on CRRT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catheter-associated Hafnia alvei-induced Urosepsis.

TL;DR: Physicians should remain vigilant of Hafnia alvei-induced urosepsis in patients with long-term catheterization initiating appropriate treatment, as this patient showed resistance to most beta-lactam antibiotics, including cefuroxime, ceftriaxone, and ceftazidime, along with intermediate susceptibility to piperacillin/tazobactam.
Journal ArticleDOI

A 31-Year-Old Man with COVID-19-Associated Empyema and Lupus Anticoagulant.

TL;DR: In patients with elevated prothrombin time, lupus anticoagulant/anti-cardiolipin antibody-positivity should be suspected, and anticoAGulation prophylaxis should be continued perioperatively for better outcomes, according to published data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pot smokers puffing away lung health.

TL;DR: There is a paucity of treatment guidelines for acute lung injury secondary to marijuana inhalation and more awareness on quitting marijuana smoking to prevent life-threatening complications like myocardial infarction, diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and acute respiratory distress syndrome.
