The clinical effectiveness of Oxiris, particularly in reducing cytokines, remains uncertain due to the limited data provided. This study explored and analyzed the application value of Oxiris endotoxin adsorption technology in a large animal model. Pigs received an intravenous LPS infusion.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of the novel oXiris® membrane in critically ill adult patients.
Methods: We systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL from inception to 01/06/2023 for relevant randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and non-randomised studies of intervention (NRSI). The primary outcome was overall mortality.

Objective: Plasma cytokine adsorption has shown benefit as an adjunctive therapy in human sepsis but has yet to be investigated in horses. We hypothesized that ex vivo filtration of equine plasma with a novel cytokine adsorption device would significantly reduce concentrations of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated cytokines. We also hypothesized that the device would adsorb medications commonly used to treat sepsis.

Devices for bacteria, endotoxin and cytokines removal by adsorption have been recently developed. Thus, extracorporeal blood purification therapies have been proposed as adjunctive therapy in sepsis in combination with drugs.

Background: Given the success of recent platform trials for COVID-19, Bayesian statistical methods have become an option for complex, heterogenous syndromes like sepsis. However, study design will require careful consideration of how statistical power varies using Bayesian methods across different choices for how historical data are incorporated through a prior distribution and how the analysis is ultimately conducted. Our objective with the current analysis is to assess how different uses of historical data through a prior distribution, and type of analysis influence results of a proposed trial that will be analyzed using Bayesian statistical methods.
