Clinical features and outcome of influenza pneumonia in critically-ill immunocompromised patients.

Immunocompromised subjects are at risk of severe viral infections which may require intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Data on the outcome of influenza pneumonia in critically-ill immunocompromised subjects are limited. We conducted a single-center observational study.

Extensive myelitis with eosinophilic meningitis after Chimeric antigen receptor T cells therapy.

Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) is a frequent adverse event after Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells). A patient treated with anti-CD19 CAR-T cells for a refractory mantle cell lymphoma presented at Day 8 post-infusion with extensive myelitis. Unusual eosinophilia was disclosed in the patient's cerebrospinal fluid.

Comparison of four channelled videolaryngoscopes to Macintosh laryngoscope for simulated intubation of critically ill patients: the randomized MACMAN2 trial.

Background: Videolaryngoscopes with an operating channel may improve the intubation success rate in critically ill patients. We aimed to compare four channelled videolaryngoscopes to the Macintosh laryngoscope used for intubation of a high-fidelity simulation mannikin, in a scenario that simulated critical illness due to acute respiratory failure.

Results: Of the 79 residents who participated, 54 were considered inexperienced with orotracheal intubation.
