Anaphylaxis after Treatment with an Endodontic Material Containing Polyethylene Glycol.

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is sometimes included in temporary endodontic filling materials to modify viscosity. PEG is considered a low hazard chemical, but parenteral PEG exposure is associated with a risk of anaphylaxis. We report 2 cases of anaphylaxis after treatment with an endodontic temporary filling material containing PEG.

Critical appraisal of the "one-day-per-percent" rule - A register-based observational study.

Background: The "one-day-per-percent" rule states that for burn patients, one day of hospital stay can be expected for each percentage of burned body surface. This study aimed to test the rule's predictive value.

Methods: The study is a register-based observational study on all burns treated in the Norwegian National Burn Center 2000-22.

Associations between enteral nutrition and outcomes in the SUP-ICU trial: Results of exploratory post hoc analyses.

Background: Enteral nutrition may affect risks of gastrointestinal bleeding, pneumonia and mortality in critically ill patients and may also modify the effects of pharmacological stress ulcer prophylaxis. We undertook post hoc analyses of the stress ulcer prophylaxis in the intensive care unit trial to assess for any associations and interactions between enteral nutrition and pantoprazole.

Methods: Extended Cox models with time-varying co-variates and competing events were used to assess potential associations, adjusted for baseline severity of illness.
