Introduction: Anaphylaxis is a severe allergic reaction marked by a sudden onset of symptoms affecting multiple bodily systems, and if not addressed promptly, it can lead to fatal outcomes. The primary clinical manifestations often involve skin rash, respiratory distress, and cardiovascular symptoms. Identifying these signs early is crucial for timely intervention, including the administration of epinephrine, aiming to prevent loss of life.

Article Synopsis
- The S-ICD was created to eliminate lead-related issues found in the TV-ICD, as it is an external device that sits under the skin rather than using leads inside the body.
- This analysis comes from the PRAETORIAN trial, where patients were randomly assigned to either S-ICD or TV-ICD and assessed for quality of life through various questionnaires at different stages.
- Results showed no significant differences in physical and mental well-being between the groups, but patients who experienced a shock recently reported lower social functioning and emotional health compared to those who did not.
Callers' Descriptions of Stroke Symptoms during Emergency Calls in Victims Who Have Fallen or Been Found Lying Down: A Qualitative Content Analysis.
Healthcare (Basel)
February 2024
Karolinska Institute's Stroke Research Network at Södersjukhuset, Department of Clinical Science and Education, 11883 Stockholm, Sweden.
Unlabelled: Early identification of stroke symptoms is essential. The rate of stroke identification by call-takers at emergency medical communication centres (EMCCs) varies, and patients who are found in a lying down position are often not identified as having an ongoing stroke.
Objectives: this study aimed to explore signs and symptoms of stroke in patients who had fallen or were found in a lying position.
Complexity of human death: its physiological, transcriptomic, and microbiological implications.
Front Microbiol
January 2024
Department of Surgery, School of Medicine, McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, United States.
Human death is a complex, time-governed phenomenon that leads to the irreversible cessation of all bodily functions. Recent molecular and genetic studies have revealed remarkable experimental evidence of genetically programmed cellular death characterized by several physiological processes; however, the basic physiological function that occurs during the immediate postmortem period remains inadequately described. There is a paucity of knowledge connecting necrotic pathologies occurring in human organ tissues to complete functional loss of the human organism.

School of Nursing, University of Pennsylvania, 418 Curie Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA.
Aims: Patients with heart failure (HF) experience various signs and symptoms and have difficulties in perceiving them. Integrating insights from patients who have engaged in the process of symptom perception is crucial for enhancing our understanding of the theoretical concept of symptom perception. This study aimed to describe how patients with HF perceive symptoms through the processes of monitoring, awareness, and evaluation and what influences the process.
