Antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent infection in patients with Child-Pugh A cirrhosis with upper gastrointestinal bleed: an open label randomised controlled trial.
Hepatol Int

Department of Gastroenterology and Human Nutrition Unit, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Background And Aims: Although beneficial in reducing the risk of bacterial infections in patients with advanced decompensated cirrhosis after upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleed, the utility of prophylactic antibiotics in those with Child-Pugh A cirrhosis is not known. We studied if prophylactic antibiotics can be withheld in this cohort.
Methods: This was a single-centre, open-label randomised-controlled-trial with non-inferiority design.
Dynamic changes in serum albumin and ferritin indicate higher risk of early-onset peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis patients.

Introduction: The objective of this study is to investigate the dynamic changes in serum albumin and ferritin as potential predictors for early-onset peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis (PDRP) in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD).
Methods: This retrospective study included 215 patients with end-stage renal disease who initiated PD at Huadong Hospital. Patients were followed up to 24 months, during which episodes of PDRP were recorded.
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis technique failure in adult patients treated at a tertiary hospital in central South Africa: a retrospective analytical study.

Division of Nephrology, Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Free State, 205 Nelson Mandela Drive, Bloemfontein, 9300, South Africa.
Background: Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is one of the kidney replacement therapy (KRT) modalities used in patients with kidney failure. It is the preferred modality in most resource-limited settings as it is more accessible and cost-effective. CAPD technique failure remains a challenge and is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality.

Department of Surgery, Chibanishi General Hospital, Chiba, Japan.
Introduction: Preoperative identification of the site of rectal cancer surgery is crucial for ensuring accurate tumor localization and resection. Commonly employed methods include contrast-enhanced enterography and endoscopic marking techniques, such as clipping and India ink tattooing. However, India ink tattooing poses challenges, including obstruction of the surgical field, ink leakage into the abdominal cavity, and potential complications such as peritonitis and adhesive bowel obstruction.

Royal GD, Deventer, Netherlands.
The purpose of the study was to prepare a safe vaccine that provides broad protection against the peritonitis syndrome. Two formaldehyde inactivated water-in-oil emulsion vaccines were made: one vaccine containing genotypes A (O1:H7), B (O78:H4), C (O2:H1) and D (O11:H12) (vaccine A-D), the other one only genotype A (vaccine A). genotypes originated from hens with EPS.
