In 163 patients with acute suppurations of lungs and pleura a substantial reduction of deformability of erythrocytes was established. The maximum increased rigidity of blood red cells was noted at the peak of the pyo-destructive process and postoperative period as well as in the complicated course of the postoperative period. The curative plasmapheresis, general hyperbaric oxygenation exert positive influence upon plastic properties of erythrocytes.

Although renal replacement therapy (RRT) remains the cornerstone of treatment for advanced AKI, its implementation can potentially pose risks and may not be readily accessible across all healthcare settings and regions. Elevated lactate levels are implicated in sepsis-induced AKI; however, it remains unclear whether increased lactate directly induces AKI or elucidates the underlying mechanisms.
