With the rapid growth of monoclonal antibody-based products, new technologies have emerged for creating modified forms antibodies, including fragments, conjugates and multi-specific antibodies. We created a database 450 therapeutic antibodies in development to determine which indications will constitute "next generation" antibody products. conclude that future closely resemble already been approved commercial sale.
Patients with acute liver failure have high rates of infections, likely from defects in immune function. Whether infections are independently associated poor outcomes is unclear. We hypothesized that patients injury who developed were at increased risk adverse outcomes.We conducted a retrospective analysis 150 critically ill adult admitted dysfunction single academic institution between 2005 and 2011. excluded immunocompromised states, chronic disease died or discharged within 48 h...
