Liberal versus restrictive transfusion strategies in acute myocardial infarction: a systematic review and comparative frequentist and Bayesian meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Background: The transfusion strategy in the acute phase of myocardial infarction (AMI) remains a debated topic with non-standardized guidelines. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of liberal versus restrictive transfusion strategies on mortality during AMI.

Methods: A systematic search was conducted across MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the COCHRANE library databases, focusing on randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

Increased Incidence of Ventilator-Acquired Pneumonia in Coronavirus Disease 2019 Patients: A Multicentric Cohort Study.

Objectives: Little is known about the epidemiology of ventilator-acquired pneumonia among coronavirus disease 2019 patients such as incidence or etiological agents. Some studies suggest a higher risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia in this specific population.

Design: Cohort exposed/nonexposed study among the REA-REZO surveillance network.
