The results of examination and treatment of 216 patients with acute intestinal obstruction of benign genesis are discussed. The values of blood plasma toxicity and the values of hemostasis determined before and after the operation were compared. Intoxication of patients was found to increase in the postoperative period. Its increase was appraised according to the duration of the disease. The causes of mortality were analysed and the risk factors of intoxication increase in the postoperative period were revealed. The authors suggest a classification of the phases of intoxication in patients with acute intestinal obstruction on the basis of the degree of intoxication and the condition of homeostasis.

Background: Provision of palliative care in acute care settings is significantly lacking despite evidence that early integration leads to better patient/family-related outcomes and improved healthcare cost and efficiency.
Objective: This study investigated influencing factors that affect the nature and frequency of palliative care practices of acute care nurses.
Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional design was used to examine the effects of personal and environmental factors on nurses' palliative care practices in the acute care setting.

Introduction: Adults with relapsed or refractory Philadelphia chromosome-positive B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (R/R Ph+ BCP-ALL) have a dismal outcome. Blinatumomab as a single agent has shown activity in R/R Ph- BCP-ALL, and second or third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) can produce high remission rates in Ph+ leukaemias. We aimed to assess the activity of blinatumomab and TKI in combination with intensive chemotherapy in the relapsed or refractory setting.

Background And Aims: Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has a 22%-74% 28-day mortality rate and 30%-40% 30-day readmission rate. We investigated the acceptability and feasibility of a multimodal community intervention for ACLF.
Methods: A single-arm nonrandomized pilot study of consecutive participants with ACLF was conducted in a tertiary health service.
