Objective: The main objective was to assess the clinical characteristics, associated factors, and outcomes of patients admitted to the ICU for candidemia. The secondary objective was to examine the relationship of candidemia with the length of stay and mortality.
Methods: The analysis was a retrospective single-center cohort study addressing the effect of invasive candidemia on outcomes.
Flow control of liquid metals based on the actual flow condition is important in many metallurgical applications. For instance, the liquid steel flow in the mould of a continuous caster strongly influences the product quality. The flow can be modified by an electromagnetic brake (EMBr).

Background: Although Memorial Delirium Assessment Scale (MDAS) is a successful tool for delirium evaluation and monitoring, it is nevertheless important to determine whether cutoff scores vary according to the studied population. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic sensitivity of the recently validated Spanish version of the MDAS. The secondary objective was to analyze possible diagnostic differences when used in a hospice or general hospital setting.

- Rising Arctic temperatures are causing significant melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet and reducing sea ice cover, with tidewater outlet glaciers serving as key connections between glaciers and the ocean.
- This study presents hydrographic measurements from a retreating tidewater outlet glacier near Flade Isblink Ice Cap, revealing changes in seasonal freshwater content and surface temperatures exceeding 1°C during the short open water period.
- The melting dynamics of the glacier are heavily influenced by the retreat of adjacent sea ice and the length of time the water is open, impacting the glacier's morphology at its terminus.
