COVID-19 patients are oftentimes over- or under-treated due to a deficit in predictive management tools. This study reports derivation of an algorithm that integrates the host levels of TRAIL, IP-10, and CRP into a single numeric score that is an early indicator of severe outcome for COVID-19 patients and can identify patients at-risk to deteriorate. 394 COVID-19 patients were eligible; 29% meeting a severe outcome (intensive care unit admission/non-invasive or invasive ventilation/death).

Objectives: Elevated concentrations of soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) predict progression to severe respiratory failure (SRF) or death among patients with COVID-19 pneumonia and guide early anakinra treatment. As suPAR testing may not be routinely available in every health-care setting, alternative biomarkers are needed. We investigated the performance of C-reactive protein (CRP), interferon gamma-induced protein-10 (IP-10) and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) for predicting SRF or death in COVID-19.

Aim: Condensation often occurs when providing humidified respiratory support. We examined conditions conducive to excess water formation in heated humified high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC).

Methods: An HHHFNC device, at 35 or 37°C, was attached with a nasal cannula to a reservoir and tested in five ambient conditions and flows.

The recognition of the newborn as a separate patient with special unique needs and rights began relatively late compared to other medical disciplines. This process occurred concomitantly with the development of modern neonatology in the country and the establishment of special care nurseries. The process included organization of skilled teams, standardization of treatment methods, introduction of standardized language and practices, and teamwork optimization.
