Cefdinir (CFDN) was administered to pediatric patients with acute infectious disease. A summary of the results obtained is as follows. 1. Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined in a girl. In comparison to reported data in adults, Tmax was shorter, Cmax was slightly lower, and the plasma half life of CFDN was somewhat longer. 2. Clinical efficacy was studied in 11 children with acute tonsillitis (6 patients), scarlet fever (1 patient), acute pharyngitis (1 patient), acute pneumonia (1 patient), acute otitis media (1 patient) and acute cervical lymphadenitis (1 patient). Responses to the treatment were excellent in 7 (63.6%) and good in 2 (18.2%). 3. No adverse reactions were noted in this study.

The First Department of Critical Care Medicine, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, Anhui, China.
Background: Sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are common inflammatory conditions in intensive care, with ARDS significantly increasing mortality in septic patients. PANoptosis, a newly discovered form of programmed cell death involving multiple cell death pathways, plays a critical role in inflammatory diseases. This study aims to elucidate the PANoptosis-related genes (PRGs) and their involvement in the progression of sepsis to ARDS.

Head Neck
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Antwerp, Antwerp, Belgium.
Background: Radiotherapy (RT) in head and neck cancer (HNC) can cause multiple side effects such as nausea, pain, taste loss, fatigue, oral mucositis, xerostomia, and acute radiation-associated dysphagia (RAD). These factors threaten patients' oral intake (OI) during this RT. Reduced OI can cause weight loss, dehydration, malnutrition, and various comorbidities.

International Renal Research Institute of Vicenza (IRRIV), Vicenza, Veneto, Italy.
Background: Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is frequent in patients with chronic kidney disease who are submitted to cardiac endovascular procedures using iodinated contrast. In hemoadsorption, cartridges containing styrene-divinylbenzene sorbent resin are applied to remove substances from the blood through an extracorporeal circuit. Importantly, iodinated contrast is also removed via adsorption.
