Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Support of Vasodilatory Shock in Children Due to Toxicological Ingestions.

Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) may provide temporary hemodynamic support for patients with severe vasodilatory shock due to toxicologic ingestion. In a series of 10 cases of children less than 18 years of age who received VA ECMO support for toxicologic-induced vasodilatory shock, there were eight survivors and two nonsurvivors who died of significant neurologic injury. Upon initiation of ECMO support, survivors had decline in Vasoactive-Inotrope Scores (VIS).

Metabolic remodeling in glioblastoma: a longitudinal multi-omics study.

Monitoring tumor evolution and predicting survival using non-invasive liquid biopsy is an unmet need for glioblastoma patients. The era of proteomics and metabolomics blood analyzes, may help in this context. A case-control study was conducted.

Comparing Intubation Rates in Patients Receiving Parenteral Olanzapine With and Without a Parenteral Benzodiazepine in the Emergency Department.

Study Objective: United States prescribing information recommends against coadministration of injectable olanzapine with injectable benzodiazepines due to a risk of cardiorespiratory depression, whereas European prescribing information recommends the 2 drugs not be administered within 60 minutes of each other. In contrast, a recently published American College of Emergency Physicians clinical policy recommends injectable olanzapine and benzodiazepines be coadministered for treating severe agitation. We sought to compare injectable olanzapine with and without injectable benzodiazepines for evidence of cardiorespiratory depression.

Use of large language models to optimize poison center charting.

Introduction: Efficient and complete medical charting is essential for patient care and research purposes. In this study, we sought to determine if Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer could generate cogent, suitable charts from recorded, real-world poison center calls and abstract and tabulate data.

Methods: De-identified transcripts of real-world hospital-initiated poison center consults were summarized by Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer 4.
