Background: Cardiac surgery can lead to dysregulation with a pro-inflammatory state, resulting in adverse outcomes. Hemadsorption using the AN69 membrane (Oxiris membrane) has the properties to chelate inflammatory cytokines. We hypothesized that in patients at high risk of inflammation, the use of the Oxiris membrane could decrease inflammation, preserve endothelial function, and improve postoperative outcomes.

Article Synopsis
  • Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury can lead to both large-scale (macrocirculatory) and small-scale (microcirculatory) blood flow failures, and the study aimed to test if combining a vasoconstrictor (norepinephrine) with a vasodilator (ilomedin) improves blood pressure and circulation after injury.
  • The research was conducted on 21 pigs, with three groups receiving different treatments before and after a 2-hour induced small bowel ischemia followed by reperfusion, measuring various circulatory parameters and biomarkers.
  • Results showed no significant differences in mean arterial pressure or cardiac index between the groups, but the combination therapy group had notably better microcirculation performance immediately after and two

Background: Invasive candidiasis/candidemia (IC/C) is associated with a substantial health economic burden driven primarily by prolonged hospital stay. The once-weekly IV echinocandin, rezafungin acetate, has demonstrated non-inferiority to caspofungin in the treatment of IC/C. This paper reports a post hoc pooled exploratory analysis of length of stay (LoS) for hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) stays in two previously published clinical trials (ReSTORE [NCT03667690] and STRIVE [NCT02734862], that compared rezafungin with daily IV caspofungin (stable patients in the caspofungin group who met relevant criteria could step down to fluconazole after 3 days or more).
