Background: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are associated with ongoing postpartum hypertension (HTN) and increased morbidity. Extravascular water and sodium mobilization is implicated in postpartum blood pressure (BP) elevation, however trials of postpartum diuretics in HDP have had mixed results. Our meta-analysis aimed to analyze the impact of postpartum diuretics on postpartum hypertension following HDP.

Background: In recent times, the applications of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) beyond kidney-related conditions have been progressively increasing, and its implementation in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) specifically for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been documented. This meta-analysis compiles all existing RCTs to assess whether CRRT benefits ARDS.
Methods: We searched 12 databases in English and Chinese and two clinical trial centers up to November 28, 2023.

Objectives: Extravascular lung water precedes deterioration of pulmonary function. Current tools to assess extravascular lung water in a setting of donor lung procurement and ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) are either subjective or not feasible. Therefore, a direCt Lung Ultrasound Evaluation (CLUE) has been introduced.

Laparoscopic surgery and the patient's intraoperative position can facilitate the emergence of these disturbances as well. A 34-year-old female patient underwent laparoscopic salpingectomy and ovarian resection in the Trendelenburg position because of an unruptured ectopic pregnancy.
