Objective: Our aim was to analyse the relation between serial values of the indocyanine green plasma disappearance rate (ICG-PDR) with hospital mortality in the first 48 hours of ICU admission in patients with septic shock.
Methods: A prospective observational study was carried out over 12 months of patients admitted to the ICU with septic shock. Each patient underwent noninvasive determination of ICG-PDR at 24 and 48 hours with the LiMON® module.
Objective: To evaluate the use and effectiveness of a routine invasive strategy (RIS) in patients with acute coronary syndrome without persistent ST-segment elevation with renal dysfunction in the real world scenario.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study based on the ARIAM-SEMICYUC Registry (2011-2014) was carried out. Renal dysfunction was defined as GFR (Cockroft-Gault)<60ml/min (moderate dysfunction) or<30ml/min (severe dysfunction).
Article Synopsis
- Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare disease with varying progression and prognosis, and this study analyzed survival rates and mortality causes in 879 Spanish patients.
- Among the patients, 15.7% died, with over half of those deaths attributed to SSc, primarily due to pulmonary hypertension.
- Key factors affecting survival included older age at disease onset, diffuse cutaneous SSc, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary hypertension, and scleroderma renal crisis, which were identified as independent risk factors for mortality.
Background And Objective: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is an important cause of morbimortality in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Evolution is worse than that of subjects with idiopathic PAH, but prognosis improves when PAH is diagnosed early. The aim of this research is to describe results of a screening program for diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) carried out in a cohort of Spanish patients with SSc.
