Background: Current guidelines suggest the use of isotonic saline (IS) infusion as the preferred resuscitation fluid in the management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). However, balanced electrolyte solutions (BES) have been proposed as an alternative due to a lower propensity to cause hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis. Evidence regarding the use of BES in DKA remains limited.
Objectives: To determine if the use of BES in fluid resuscitation leads to faster resolution of DKA compared to IS.
Methods: The study involves a comprehensive search of literature from PubMed, Cochrane CENTRAL, Google Scholar, and Science Direct of clinical trials addressing the use of BES vs IS in fluid resuscitation in DKA. The time to resolution of DKA was examined as the primary endpoint. Pooled hazard ratios (HR) and Mean Difference (MD) in hours with their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random-effects model.
Results: The literature search included 464 studies that were screened individually. A total of 9 studies were identified but 6 studies were excluded due to irrelevance in the outcome of interest and target population. The pooled hazard ratio HR significantly revealed 1.46 [1.10 to 1.94] (p = 0.009) with 12% heterogeneity while MD was -3.02 (95% CI -6.78-0.74; p = 0.12) with heterogeneity of 85%.
Conclusion: Considering the evidence from pooled small randomized trials with moderate overall certainty of evidence, the use of BES in DKA was associated with faster rates of DKA resolution compared to IS.

Gradient porous carbon has become a potential electrode material for energy storage devices, including the aqueous zinc-ion hybrid capacitor (ZIHC). Compared with the sufficient studies on the fabrication of ZIHCs with high electrochemical performance, there is still lack of in-depth understanding of the underlying mechanisms of gradient porous structure for energy storage, especially the synergistic effect of ultramicropores (<1 nm) and micropores (1-2 nm). Here, we report a design principle for the gradient porous carbon structure used for ZIHC based on the data-mining machine learning (ML) method.

Snakebite-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) poses a significant health burden in the South Asia region, resulting in considerable morbidity and mortality. Multiple factors contribute to the pathogenesis of AKI following snakebites, including hypotension, intravascular haemolysis, disseminated intravascular coagulation, rhabdomyolysis, thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) and direct nephrotoxicity. Clinical features manifest as anuria, oliguria, haematuria, abdominal pain and hypertension.

This paper reports two cases of occupational severe toxic encephalopathy caused by inhaling excessive nitrogen in an accident. The main reasons are failure to performing field-work standards of limited space operation and emergency rescue. Hypoxia asphyxia is the main pathogenic link of nitrogen toxicity, which can cause brain edema.

The Ni-rich LiNiCoMnO cathode (NCM, ≥ 0.6) suffers rapid capacity decay due to serious surface degradations from the corrosion of the electrolyte. The processes of the HO- and O-based AlO atomic layer deposition (ALD) on the single-crystal LiNiCoMnO (NCM83) are investigated by measurements to understand the mechanism of their different impacts on the electrochemical performance of NCM83.
