TL;DR: Physician utilization of cooling after cardiac arrest remains low, and the data suggest that development of better cooling methodology and recent incorporation into resuscitation guidelines may improve use.

TL;DR: In unconscious survivors from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest admitted to the ICU, targeted temperature management at 33°C for 48 hours did not significantly improve 6-month neurologic outcome compared with targeted temperature Management at 33 °C for 24 hours, and further research may be warranted.

TL;DR: Progress in monitoring and in understanding pathophysiological mechanisms of TBI could change current management in the intensive care unit, enabling targeted interventions that could ultimately improve outcomes.

TL;DR: It is found that there is no additional survival benefit from strict glucose control compared with moderate glucose control with a target between 6 and 8 mmol/l in OHCA patients.
