The SAPS score proposed by Le Gall, was used in 128 patients undergoing biliary surgery between January 1987 and April 1988. The score is based on the laboratory data for the first day. The cumulative post-operative complication rate was established during hospital stay and at one month after discharge. There is a highly significant correlation between the SAPS score, the morbidity and the mean hospital stay. From this study it seems valuable to use this score in surgery reports.

Purpose: Prognostic impact of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) in septic shock patients has not been determined using current diagnostic guidelines. We assessed the relation between LVDD during the first 3 days following intensive care unit (ICU) admission for septic shock and Day-28 mortality.
Methods: This prospective, multicenter, observational study enrolled 402 patients (age: 63 ± 13 year; 59% male; SAPS II: 59 ± 20; SOFA: 9.

: Cardiogenic shock (CS) remains a critical condition with high mortality rates despite advances in treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of urinary output at various time intervals during CS and its effectiveness as a predictor of 30-day mortality, particularly in comparison to the Simplified Acute Physiology Score 3 (SAPS 3). : We conducted a retrospective analysis of 96 patients diagnosed with CS, assessing urinary output at different intervals (0-6 h, 6-12 h, 12-24 h, and 0-24 h) as potential predictors of 30-day mortality.

Purpose: Sepsis-associated liver injury (SALI) leads to increased mortality in sepsis patients, yet no specialized tools exist for early risk assessment. This study aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model for early identification of SALI before patients meet full diagnostic criteria.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 415 sepsis patients admitted to ICU from January 2019 to January 2022.

Focusing on young adults constituting the most vulnerable and risky group regarding substance abuse, the present study was carried out in order to examine the relationship between the spiritual well-being levels of university students and their substance abuse proclivity. Having a descriptive and cross sectional design, this study was completed with 250 students studying at a Vocational High School of a university in Türkiye during the academic year 2021-2022. The data collection process was carried out by using the "Personal Information Form," the "Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS)," and the "Substance Use Tendency Scale (SAPS).
