Background: Sepsis, characterized by dysregulated host responses to infection, remains a critical global health concern, with high morbidity and mortality rates. The gastrointestinal tract assumes a pivotal role in sepsis due to its dual functionality as a protective barrier against injurious agents and as a regulator of motility. Dexmedetomidine, an α2-adrenergic agonist commonly employed in critical care settings, exhibits promise in influencing the maintenance of intestinal barrier integrity during sepsis.

Background: Sepsis and its related complications are very challenging in the intensive care unit, among which intestinal barrier injury is a general manifestation. Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is widely studied in cancer, while its role in sepsis is poorly understood. In this study, the efficiency of PLK1 as a marker of intestinal barrier function as well as a predictor of mortality in sepsis was evaluated.

The intestines play a crucial role in the development of sepsis. The balance between autophagy and apoptosis in intestinal epithelial cells is dynamic and determines intestinal permeability. The present study focused on the potential role of autophagy in sepsis-induced intestinal barrier dysfunction and explored the mechanisms in vivo and in vitro.

Introduction: Gastrointestinal failure results in death in critically ill patients. This study aimed to explore the effect of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on intestinal barrier function and its mechanism in critically ill patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.

Methods: Patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery were randomized into the DEX group (n = 21) or midazolam (MID) group (n = 21).

Objectives: Real world studies have started to emerged on occurrence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) with cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors, but still deserve constant surveillance and evaluation. This study was to analyze this association.

Methods: Adverse event cases were acquired from the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database betweenJanuary 1st 2015 and December 31st 2020.
