Background: Characteristics of the blood microbiota among adult patients with community-acquired sepsis are poorly understood. Our aim was to analyze the composition of blood microbiota in adult patients with community-acquired sepsis, and correlate changes with non-septic control patients.
Methods: A prospective observational study was carried out by including adult patients hospitalized for community-acquired sepsis at our center between January and November 2019, by random selection from a pool of eligible patients.

Background: Impella 5.5 (Abiomed; Danvers, MA) (IMP5) is a commonly used, surgically implanted, tMCS device that requires systemic anticoagulation and purge solution to avoid pump failure. To avoid heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) from unfractionated heparin (UFH) use, our program has explored the utility of bivalirudin (BIV) for systemic anticoagulation and sodium bicarbonate-dextrose purge solution (SBPS) in IMP5.

Temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) devices are used for the management of cardiogenic shock. The Impella 5.0 (Abiomed; Danvers, MA) (IMP5) is a commonly used, surgically implanted, tMCS device that requires systemic anticoagulation and purge solution to avoid pump failure.

To validate the hypothesis that Tyr748 is a crucial residue to aid the discovery of highly selective phosphodiesterase 8A (PDE8A) inhibitors, we identified a series of 2-chloroadenine derivatives based on the hit clofarabine. Structure-based design targeting Tyr748 in PDE8 resulted in the lead compound (IC = 0.010 μM) with high selectivity with a reasonable druglike profile.

To validate PDE4 inhibitors as novel therapeutic agents against vascular dementia (VaD), 25 derivatives were discovered from the natural inhibitor α-mangostin (IC = 1.31 μM). Hit-to-lead optimization identified a novel and selective PDE4 inhibitor (IC = 17 nM), which adopted a different binding pattern from PDE4 inhibitors roflumilast and rolipram.
