Transfusion-associated necrotising enterocolitis in very low birth weight babies: transfusion and feeding practices in two neonatal units in Bloemfontein, Free State.
South Afr J Crit Care

Department of Biostatistics, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa.
Background: Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is life-threatening with a rising incidence due to improved neonatal care. While researchers' focus has shifted to causes, risk factors and preventative clinical strategies, little is known about the exact aetiology of NEC. Risk factors include the relationship between red blood cell transfusions (RBCTs) and the development of transfusion-associated NEC (TANEC) and peri-transfusion feeding, increasing the risk of TANEC.

Department of Cardiovascular Sciences, Unit Anesthesiology and Algology, Biomedical Sciences Group, University of Leuven (KU Leuven), Leuven, Belgium.
Objectives: Identifying cardiac surgical patients at risk of requiring red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is crucial for optimizing their outcome. We critically appraised prognostic models preoperatively predicting perioperative exposure to RBC transfusion in adult cardiac surgery and summarized model performance.
Methods: Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
The efficacy and safety of topical combined with intravenous administration of tranexamic acid in spine surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord

Department of Orthopedics, Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical University, Taizhou, Zhejiang, 317000, China.
Background: There is controversy regarding the efficacy of intravenous combined topical tranexamic acid. We conducted this study to systematically assess the effectiveness of intravenous combined topical tranexamic acid (combined TXA) in spinal surgery to guide clinical practice.
Methods: The review process was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines.

In order to guide clinical blood transfusion practices for pediatric patients, the National Health Commission has released the health standard "Guideline for pediatric transfusion" (WS/T 795-2022). Considering the physiological particularities of the neonatal period, blood transfusion practices for neonates are more complex than those for other children, the guidelines include a separate chapter dedicated to neonatal blood transfusion. This paper interprets the background and evidence for the compilation of the neonatal blood transfusion provisions, hoping to aid in the understanding and implementation of the neonatal blood transfusion section of the guidelines.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne)
December 2024
Department of Endocrinology, Singapore General Hospital, Singapore, Singapore.
Background: Current guidelines recommend that hyperthyroid patients should be rendered euthyroid prior to surgical procedures. These guidelines rely heavily on the use of ATDs as the primary medication, and do not give recommendations for patients who have contraindications to ATDs, or for whom standalone ATD treatment is inadequate.
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjunctive pharmacological therapy and/or therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) in the perioperative management of patients with thyrotoxicosis who were intolerant to ATD or for whom standalone ATD therapy was inadequate to achieve euthyroidism prior to surgery.
