Article Synopsis
- Many marine animals, particularly Cnidarians like jellyfish, can be dangerous to humans and often cause painful burns, especially in tropical waters.
- Contact with their toxins may lead to acute kidney damage, with varying effects depending on the specific species of Cnidaria involved.
- Currently, there's one specific antitoxin for Cnidarian-induced burns, but research is ongoing to develop a universal treatment that could neutralize toxins from various Cnidarian species.

The Nipah virus (NiV) is highly dangerous due to its zoonotic nature, high mortality rate, and ability to cause severe clinical symptoms in humans. In this review, we gather the latest information on the NiV and its potential to become a significant candidate for Disease X.

Delirium is a complex neurocognitive disorder characterized by an acute disturbance in attention, awareness, and perception. It is a dangerous syndrome that is independently associated with higher rates of morbidity and mortality, inpatient complications, and is a predictor of long-term cognitive dysfunction. Although delirium can occur in persons of all ages, the prevalence among and impact on older adults is particularly significant.

Article Synopsis
- * Data from 535 patients was analyzed using logistic regression, identifying factors like respiratory disease and blood glucose levels as key risk predictors for pneumonia; a nomogram was created for better visualization of these risks.
- * Results showed that patients without pneumonia had significantly better prognoses than those who developed pneumonia, emphasizing the importance of identifying and managing these risk factors preoperatively.
