High NT pro-BNP levels in children with malignant disorder receiving intensive fluid treatment: a prospective comparative study.

Hematologic malignancies are a well-known risk factor for cardiovascular disease development. Chemotherapeutic protocols commonly include intensive fluid therapy (IFT), which may negatively influence the cardiovascular system and predispose to arterial hypertension. This study aims to evaluate atrial natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT), and changes in blood pressure in children with hematological malignancies undergoing intensive fluid therapy.

Ten-Year Retrospective Analysis of Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy in Burn Patients: Impact on Survival and Timing of Initiation.

BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common issue in intensive care units and is a potentially lethal consequence of severe burns. In severely burned patients with non-renal indications, renal replacement treatment is frequently used. This study's aim was to compile a 10-year summary of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) experience at a single burn center, including patient outcomes, effectiveness, and potential complications in the context of severe burns.

Are We Overlooking Harms of BDDE-Cross-Linked Dermal Fillers? A Scoping Review.

1,4-Butanediol ether (BDDE) is widely used as a cross-linker for hyaluronic acid in dermal fillers. The purpose of this scoping review was to determine the state of knowledge about the behaviour of cross-linked substances and safety of BDDE application. The rationale behind the review came from the clinical experience of one of the authors (KS), who noticed adverse reactions after BDDE-linked hyaluronan application.
