Importance: While corticosteroid administration in septic shock has been shown to result in faster shock reversal and lower short-term mortality, the role of corticosteroids in the management of cardiogenic shock (CS) remains unexplored.
Objectives: Determine the impact of corticosteroid administration on 90-day mortality (primary outcome) in patients admitted to a critical care unit with CS.
Design, Setting, And Participants: In this retrospective cohort study, we used the critical care database of Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV, and included all adult patients diagnosed with CS excluding repeated admissions, patients with adrenal insufficiency, those receiving baseline corticosteroids, and those requiring extracorporeal life support.

Background: Recent advancements in ultra-high-density mapping (UHDM) featuring automated functionalities have enhanced our understanding of micro-reentrant atrial tachycardias (mAT) circuits and the precise localization of the origin.
Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic support provided by an automated UHDM algorithm in guiding the ablation of mATs.
Methods: Consecutive patients eligible for AT ablation in 22 Italian centers were prospectively enrolled.

Aim: To validate the prognostic value of the PAncreatic NeoAdjuvant MAssachusetts (PANAMA)-score and to determine its predictive ability for survival benefit derived from adjuvant treatment in patients after resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) following neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX.
Background: The PANAMA-score was developed to guide prognostication in patients after neoadjuvant therapy and resection for PDAC. As this score focuses on the risk for residual disease after resection, it might also be able to select patients who benefit from adjuvant after neoadjuvant therapy.

Case: A 48-year-old man with multiple injuries sustained a Gustilo type 3A right open distal humerus fracture with a 4-cm wound, contralateral radius shaft, and ilium fractures. Following wound irrigation on the day of injury, second look debridement showed crushed triceps and severe contamination extending into the distal humerus medullary canal. After 6 days of initial plate fixation, he developed signs of deep infection.

In this study, spatial and single-cell transcriptome techniques were used to investigate the role of beta-galactoside alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 1 (ST6GAL1) in promoting peritoneal metastasis in ovarian cancer epithelial cells. We collected single-cell transcriptomic (GSE130000) and spatial transcriptomic datasets (GSE211956) from the Gene Expression Omnibus and RNA-sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. The Robust Cell Type Decomposition (RCTD) approach was implemented to integrate spatial and single-cell transcriptomic data.
