Dengue infection has been associated with oxidative stress (OS) induction; however, whether such a response predicts the development of complications remains unknown. We conducted a case-control study (1:2 ratio) nested within a cohort of febrile patients with a presumptive or confirmed diagnosis of dengue. Incident cases were patients who developed hypotension or severe bleeding during the follow-up, whereas controls did not.

Aim: Adherence to post-cardiac arrest care (PCAC) recommendations is associated with improved outcomes for adults. We aimed to describe the survival impact of meeting American Heart Association (AHA) PCAC guidelines in children after cardiac arrest.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study using Get With The Guidelines® Resuscitation's (GWTG®-R) registry to describe the PCAC of patients ≤ 18 years old who suffered an in-hospital or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA or OHCA).

Background: There are established and well-followed guidelines for pediatric oncology patients who have neutropenic fever. However, there are no explicit criteria for this patient group, and over 50% of pediatric oncology patients with fever do not present with neutropenia.
Objective: In this scoping review, we have explored the outcomes of non-neutropenic fever in pediatric, adolescent, and young adult patients with cancer-directed treatment.

We present the case of a healthcare professional in her late 30s who presented with a fever in the setting of a bacteraemia.

Objective: To analyze the usefulness of mean mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) level to stratify risk in emergency department patients with solid tumors attended for febrile neutropenia after chemotherapy. To compare risk prediction with MR-proADM to that of conventional biomarkers and scores on the Multinational Association for Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC) score.
Methods: Prospective observational cohort study enrolling patients with solid tumors who developed febrile neutropenia after chemotherapy.
