Clinical and epidemiological differences between acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) that presents at the initiation of mechanical ventilation [MV] (ARDS MV onset) which develops during course after are not well understood. We conducted an observational study in five Peruvian ICUs to characterize ARDS onset identify risk factors for development onset. consecutively enrolled critically ill patients with failure requiring least 24 h followed them prospectively first 28 days compared...
Hyponatremia is a very commonly encountered clinical entity with potentially dangerous effects and for which many precipitating factors have been identified. We present case of valproic acid (VPA) overdose causing profound hyponatremia, one the lowest serum sodium levels ever documented in literature. A 54-year-old woman hypothyroidism, hypertension bipolar disorder presented somnolence after intentionally ingesting 7,500 mg VPA. She was drowsy but easily arousable no hemodynamic compromise...
Jams are delicious and nutritious spreads typically made from fruit, sugar pectin that ensure availability of fruits in off-season. The study aimed to develop papaya-gooseberry jam evaluate sensory nutritional parameters. Six variations papaya: gooseberry was prepared besides the control T0 (100% papaya). successive were T1 (95:5), T2 (90:10), T3 (85:15), T4 (80:20), T5 (75:25) T6 (70:30). T-test one-way analysis variance (ANOVA) applied find significant difference parameters different...
Abstract Objectives Accurate diagnosis and management of undifferentiated diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) in critically ill patients is challenging. Transbronchial forceps biopsies have limited utility surgical can be detrimental for patients. cryobiopsy (TBC) has shown increased diagnostic yield compared to conventional biopsy DPLD. However, TBC not been studied intensive care unit (ICU) In this case series, we describe our experience with DPLD ICU acute hypoxemic respiratory...
Background . We hypothesized that positive end-exploratory pressure (PEEP) may promote venous stasis in the upper extremities and predispose to extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT). Methods performed a retrospective case control study of medical intensive care unit patients who required mechanical ventilation (MV) for >72 hours underwent duplex ultrasound their veins suspected DVT between January 2011 December 2013. Results UEDVT was found 32 (28.5%) 112 patients. Nineteen (67.8%) had...
Although it is well known that the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has had a profound effect on health care, its impact fellowship training in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine (PCCM) not been described.We conducted an anonymous survey of PCCM program directors (PDs) to assess COVID-19 across United States.We developed 30-question web-based was distributed U.S. PDs through Association Program Directors.The sent 242 PDs, whom 28.5% responded. Most responses (76.8%) came from...
The repeated processing and over-cooking of food may adversely affect the oil quality, causing various physiological chemical changes in it.Isomerization double bond is one such process which generate trans fatty acids (TFAs) food.In present study, we analysed effect thermal (frying, heating microwave treatment) on fat formation selected oils/fats with reference to their length double-bond position.It was observed that frying treatment significantly affected TFA content oils/fats.
Abstract Objectives Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is a heterogeneous condition. We aimed to study the associations between age and sex with clinical characteristics at onset of pediatric T1D. Methods A secondary analysis was conducted on data collected retrospectively from 706 children newly diagnosed T1D large tertiary hospital in southeastern USA. Age (stratified across three cohorts 0.84 18.08 years), sex, their interaction were compared for presentation by multivariable regression...
Background: Even with the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), mortality remains high. Also, prognostication patients ARDS and ECMO is difficult. Cytokines are thought to be markers inflammation both ECMO, however, understanding limited. We aimed study association three serum cytokine levels these on ECMO. Methods: performed a retrospective chart review between 2011 2017. Patients TNF-α, IL-6 IL-2 measured while were included,...
