Factors affecting continuous renal replacement therapy duration in critically ill patients: A retrospective study.

Introduction: This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) duration in critically ill patients and provide a reference for clinical treatment.

Material And Methods: We divided patients into regional citrate anti-coagulation (RCA) and low-molecular-weight-heparin (LMWH) groups according to the anti-coagulation method and collected the relevant data, to analyze the factors associated with CRRT time.

Results: Compared with the LMWH group, the RCA group had a longer mean treatment time (55.

MiR-501-5p alleviates cardiac dysfunction in septic patients through targeting NR4A3 to prevent its binding with Bcl-2.

Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is a common complication in septic patients. To date, a limited number of biomarkers that could predict cardiomyocyte apoptosis have been explored. In this study, we successfully established a cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced septic model, and it was found that miR-501-5p expression was down-regulated in peripheral blood samples of septic patients with cardiac dysfunction, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiomyocytes, and the myocardium and peripheral blood in the septic model.
