Intensive Care Unit-Acquired Weakness (ICU-AW) is a common and severe complication in critically ill patients, characterized by profound often prolonged muscle weakness. The complexity of its diagnosis management requires multidimensional approach that integrates clinical, electrophysiological, imaging tools. This review focuses on the challenges diagnosing ICU-AW, emphasizing limitations traditional methods such as manual testing electrophysiological studies, highlights emerging role...
To compare the ability of most used Early Warning Scores (EWS) to identify adult patients at risk poor outcomes in emergency department (ED).Single-center, retrospective observational study. We evaluated digital records consecutive ED admissions ≥ 18 years from 2010 2019 and calculated NEWS, NEWS2, MEWS, RAPS, REMS, SEWS based on parameters measured arrival. assessed discrimination calibration performance each EWS predicting death/ICU admission within 24 hours using ROC analysis visual...
Introduction: Transthoracic echocardiography with bubble test is an accurate, reproducible, and safe technique to verify the location of tip central venous catheter. The aim this study confirm effectiveness method for in patients atrial arrhythmia. Methods: was adopted as a arrhythmia requiring If bubbles were evident right atrium less than 2 s after simple saline injection, placement assumed correct. In cases uncertain visualization effect, repeated injecting saline–air mixture. Tip also...
Abstract Background IBD, especially during flare periods, seems to be associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic and cardiovascular(CV) events[1]. After the results ORAL Surveillance study[2] enrolling patients rheumatoid arthritis, several concerns have also been raised on intrinsic Janus kinase inhibitors (JAK-i), though population enrolled was predominantly >50 years old had CV factors (CVRF). Accordingly, regulatory agencies recommend that JAK-i should used only if no...
Abstract Background Endoscopic evaluation (assessed with the Rutgeerts score, RS) offers prognostic information in postoperative management of Crohn’s disease (CD). The significance anastomotic lesions (AL) remains unclear. Two scores have been introduced: POCER index1 (PI), including circumferential extent and depth ulcers, UEDA et al score2 (US), classifying 4 categories at anastomosis peri-anastomosis site. This study aims to evaluate predictive value PI US a real- life cohort. Methods We...
Background and Objectives: The management of HIV patients presenting with fever in the Emergency Department (ED) remains a challenging clinical scenario. Accurate risk stratification prognostic indicators are crucial for timely intervention improved patient outcomes. Procalcitonin (PCT) has emerged as promising biomarker assessing severity prognosis various infectious diseases. study aimed to evaluate value procalcitonin admitted suspicion infection assess its association in-hospital...
Personalised medicine and the identification of predictors efficacy specific drugs represent ultimate goal for treatment ulcerative colitis (UC) in order to break current therapeutic ceiling. JAK inhibitors are a new class advanced therapies, orally administered, showing good profile safety both randomised controlled trials (RCTs) real-world studies. Unfortunately, date, it is not possible draw ideal patient maximally benefiting from this guide clinicians’ choices. Baseline clinical...

Well recognized guidelines are available for the use of cranial computed tomography (CCT) in traumatic patients, while no definitely accepted standards exists to CCT patients without history head injury. The aim this study is propose an easy clinical score stratify need emergency department (ED) with suspect non-traumatic intracranial pathology. We retrospectively evaluated presenting ED neurological deficit, postural instability, acute headache, altered mental status, seizures, confusion,...

This study aimed at evaluating prognostic role serum Procalcitonin (PCT) measurement among adult patients admitted to ED with fever. Materials Methods. a retrospective cross-sectional including all consecutive fever subsequently hospitalized period six-year (January 2014 December 2019). Inclusion criteria were age > 18 years, (T ≥ 38 °C) or chills within 24 h from presentation as...
