Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a life-threatening disease with uncontrolled immune activation and inflammatory reaction, often leads to a deadly cytokine storm. In severe Ebstein-Barr virus-triggered HLH receiving standard immunosuppression, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) with oXiris® blood purification membrane resulted in a timely reduction of inflammatory markers and discontinuation of vasopressors. To our knowledge, this is the first report of successful use of the oXiris® membrane in HLH.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Oklahoma Tulsa, OU-TU School of Community Medicine, Tulsa, OK.
Objective: The purpose of this review was to examine new evidence since our 2019 guidelines for cervical cancer (CC) screening in non-HIV immunocompromised persons and to provide updated recommendations based on literature review and expert opinion. In addition, human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine efficacy in these populations was reviewed.
Methods: A literature search was performed similar to our previous publication but was conducted through March 2023.

Euglycemic ketoacidosis (EKA) has been reported as a rare but life-threatening complication of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). EKA should be suspected in the setting of persistent high anion gap metabolic acidosis despite renal replacement therapy. Critically ill patients, especially those with diabetes mellitus, are at risk of EKA due to deficient caloric intake, the presence of excess counterregulatory stress hormones, and nutritional losses from CRRT.

The optimal modalities of kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in the ICU remain debated. Intermittent haemodialysis (IHD) and continuous veno-venous haemofiltration (CVVH) are the two main methods. Intermittent haemodialysis requires a water treatment system, which may not be available in all jurisdictions.

Background & Aims: A common genetic variant (rs738409) encoding isoleucine to methionine at position 148 in the PNPLA3 protein is a determinant of hepatic steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and liver-related mortality. AZD2693 is a liver-targeted antisense oligonucleotide against PNPLA3 mRNA. We evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) studies.
